have not returned yet.
The Treasury Department is reported
as anxious TO close up the income-tax
matter. and officials arc rather surprised
at the remissness Of those who paid IN
not hling their claims for its return.

CLOUCH'S BIG HEART
CAUSES HIM TO SIGN HIS SEC
OND PARDON
TO ONE GEORGE WALKER
Sent Up for Receiving Stolen
Property Pathetic Do
mestic Story Revealed.

Gov Clough has signed his second
pardon, the prisoner, George Walker
this time having been an inmate Of the
workhouse, whittier he had been sent
by Judge Kelly for term Of seventy
five days.
George Walker was indicted, together
with his wife, on Jan. 81, and pleaded
guilty to the crime of receiving stolen
property. He was sentenced as stated
above, tI.a indictment as to Mrs. Walk
er being dismissed on the motion Of
County Attorney Butler for the reason
that they had small children who re-
quired the care of their mother. 1t was
proved that the Walkers were not
in the habit of receiving stolen prop
erty for gain, and it is now learned
that a little daughter of Walker, aged
eleven, has organic heart disease, which
has been greatly aggravated by he"
fathers misfortune. Since the father
committal to the workhouse the family
has had to apply to the city authorities
for the necesSaries of life. Edward j.
Darragh, who acted as attorney for the
Walkers, has taken great deal of in
terest in the family, and it is largely
through his efforts that a pardon has
now been secured. Mr.. Darragh, after
getting the governors signature to the
pardon, which is absolute, visited the
Workhouse and brought the man to his
home. where a touching scene was en-
acted

CONVOCATION WORK.
First Service by the Clergy OF
the Minnesota Diocese.

First Service by the Clergy of
the Minnesota Diocese.
The first service of the central con-
vocation of the Minnesota diocese of
the Episcopal church was held at
Christ church last evening. A number
of Episcopal ministers of the city, and
quite a number from other parts Of the
state were present. A short address
was delivered by Rev. c. D. Andrews,
on the best method to be adopted for
convocat ton Work-that is, aiding the
bishop in the direction Of home mis-
sionary work. Mr.. Andrews urged that
the best means of accomplishing this
was for the ministers throughout the
different conVocationS in the diocese to
cooperate in encourag ing the weaker
conversations. His idea was that the
clergy, in the larger cities especially,
should occasionally go cut to the more
remote sections and do some mSssion-
airy work among the people less for
tunately situated as regards progress
i've ministers.
Bishop Gilbert followed with a few
remarks indorsing the plan suggested
by Mr. Andrews. He said that many OF
the outside congregations are much IN
need of Just such encouragement, and
the bishops time being largely taken
up by this kind of work, and attending
to other details, he is hampered in the
broader work of giving statesmanlike
direction to the general church admin
istration. AS far as the suggestion that
it was too great strain on him was
concerned, he assured them he never
felt better in his life. But the real
question was as to what was best for
the church He said the time had come
when it was imperative that another
bishop should be appointed for Duluth
and the surrounding country. 1t was
not a question as to who should be
appointed, or how the territory should
be divided, as long as the best inter
ests of the whole church were to be
subserved He said the Minnesota do
cese has had the most difficult problem
of any diocese in the United States to
solve.
A convocation service will be held to-
day, beginning at 9 o'clock with the
celebation of the communion. At 10
Rev. David Morgan will read paper on
convocation work. At 11:3O Rev. Mr..
Nichols, of Minneapolis, will deliver a
short address, which will be followed
by luncheon at 12:90. At 2 Rev. Mr..
Fonde, of Minneapolis, will deliver an
address, and at $3.50 Rev. Mr.. Ray, of
Litchfeld, will speak. An evening SER
vice will be held, beginning at 7:45, at
which Rev. DR.. Wright and Bishop
Gilbert will speak.

CONGRESSIONA CANDIDATES.
Men DESTROYS of going to congress
are also numerous, especially in the
Second district AS Representa-
tive Jacobson expresses it, there are
probably twenty Republicans in Nc
Cleary's district who consider them
selves we'll fitted to go to the nation
al congress. Asked as to his own
intentions, the Lac qui Parle man
rather evaded the question, with the
assertion that he has given too much
time to politics already.
Senator Miller, of Rock county,
has often been talked of, and will be
candidate beyond doubt. Hon.
D. c. Shell wouldn't kick if he was
selected And McCleary will most
certainly follow Tawney's example
in trying for a third term. But
above all these in chances of re-
ceiVing the nomination stands Lieut..
Gov. Day. While he would not adj
nit as much to the reporter, he
would not deny the intimation that
he is preparing to go after Nc
Cleary's seat. Ard he will most like
ly be nominated. There is no more
accomplished politician in Mime
sofa. His pronounced free silver
views are alone responsible for the
fact that he has not taken a more
leading part in the management of
conventions and campaigns. Miller
h
the money question; but the Rock
county man is in a very bad posi-
ton on account of his lack of politi-
cal prescience in the senatorial fight
Any opposition he might make to
Day would lose it's force from the
fact that he voted for John Lind, a
radical free silver man.
Should TaWney be defeated for a
denomination, Senator Greer will no
doubt be the choice of First district
Republicans The First, Second,
Fourth and Fifth are the districts
in which there will be contests. Rep
resentative Sutton and the other Re-
publicans in Kiefer's district will
maintain that Washington county
shall furnish the next candidate
Minneapolis, of course, will have
many aspirants for Fletcher's place.

ceded to be certain of denominations.

NAMING THE TWINS.
Rep. Boobar Tells Il Funny Story
of an IriSIlInan.

REPRESENTATIVE Boobar, of Stearns
county. is one of the best Story-tellerS
in the legislature, and he has some good
stories, too One yarn thai hn relates
is of an Irish couple in st. Cloud, who
were blessed with three pairs of twins.
When the first two came the parents
were puzzled to find suitable names.
The mother wanted them named some
what alike, but "wid a slight divarshun
bechune tn sound O. tn two" Her
husband studied over the matter all
day, but in the evening he came home
beaming I've found two purity cog
nomians for tn craythurs, Mary" said
he. "Shure an fwhat are they, James,
"Well, We'll call wan Pete an tn
other wan Repeat"
The second event in the family added
a pair of girls, and on the mother de-
volved the task of naming them James
emphasized the point that he wanted
names that would coincide an fit in.
He was forced to admit that Mary had
acquitted herself nobly when she an
nounced that she had decided on Kate
and Duplicate"
In due time came the third pair, and
they were boys. James was rather put
sponsibilfties were increasing" says
Boobar, "and he let it be understood
that sort of thing must be stopped.
'Shure, tn Lord is good to us, James
acushla,' Mary argued, an sence tn
darlins are here, l want you to choose
two rale nice names for thim.
So the irate father went to his work
to think the matter over. He came
home with humorous twinkle in his
| eye that evening, and, remarking with
| a great show of severity that he pro-
posed to put an end to such swift in
| crease of population, announced that he
had picked names for Nos. and g.
What are they, James dear? asked
| the wife, with a smile of anticipation.
Well, being as 1 have no warm lik-
| in for a continuashun O. this bizness,
an to kind O. keep the fact in moind,
| I'll call wan Max and tn other Gil
| max.
Speaker Van SAINT heard Boobar tell
| this story to mixed crowd of ladies
| and gentlemen the other day, and while
! the laugh went round he rose and re-
marked that Alvah Eastman had told
him that a fourth pair of youngsters
had recently arrived.
what did they call them?" asked
| the StearnS county man.
"Bar and BoobarE' replied Van SAINT,
as he fell back on young lady's
shoulder.
