wanted to sell Louisiana. Whatever
opposition Bonamrtes ministers had
made lie had silenced; the chambers
he had not even consulted. The only
serious hinllance he seems to have

rushed to the tub where his brother
was submerged in Opaque water, and
declared if he dared attempt such .
thing he would himself mount the
tribune in opposition. Bonaparte,
furious, sprang up. exclaiming, you

and fell, deluging Joseph in perfumcd
water and breaking up the quarrel.
An hour later Bonaparte and Lucien
resumed the conversation in the form
er's study. Lucien contended the sale
was unconstitutional. Bonaparte
taunted him with the term, told him
that he had less respect for the con
stitution on the 18th Brumaire. Luc.
len, incensed, informed the general
that if he were not his brother he
would be his enemy; and Bonaparte
excited, dashed his snuff box to the
floor, exclaiming, "You my enemy!
would break you as do this box
These scenes were repeated more than
once before the negotiations were fin
ished, but they seemed not to have
caused any hesitation on Bonaparte'i
side, for, in spite of all opposition, the
negotiations were finally completed
and Louisiana was ours, the price be
ing 6OO0O,OOO francs, we to assume
in addition, the spoliation claims Of
our country against France up to thu
amount of 2O,OOO,OOO francs. Bona

able war measure, and he told one o.

SHE WAS A BRITISH SUBJECT.

She Saw the Road Race in. Her Own
Sweet British Way.
The tailor-made woman with a rad
ish face and reddish hair occupied
prominent corner Of the Judges stand
ut the road race Thursday. She was
uncomfortably hot. Her boundaries
were as proportionately extensive " 5
Chicago's, for the number of inhabit-
ants it contained, and as the fires of
Sol were added to the fires of youth,
the beads Of Transportation gleefully
chased each other down her nasal pom
toon.
She had come an hour before the
race started and was determined to
see the finish. The mercury rose.
The hot sun beat upon that devoted
head. Just as Dworak hove in sight,
after circumventing the earth on lat
itudinal parallel of 5000 degrees and
leaving it to be supposed that he had
trayersed major circle, she raised q
family umbrella.
"Will you please lower your umbrel-
lap gently inquired an inhabitant of
the shadow of total eclipse. A shade
Of annoyance passed over the radish
cOuntenance, but the sunshade moved
not. PUT down that umbrellaw came
from dozen or more shut off from
"a view of the finish. She glared
around with an air Of independence
which plainly said Ia Paul, "None Of
these things move me, or my umbrel-
Ila.', "Fire the female!' and "Shoot
the bumbersol" and other expressions
OF like tenor and bass came from the
crowd around the Grant monument,
while crowd perched on tally-ho
lifted up it's collective voice.
| With show Of Indignation that
would have done credit to her most
choleric ancestry, she defiantly faced
her prosecutors and shouted: I'm a
/ British subject, I'll let you know, and
lie you dare say hanything more to me
lthere'll be harmy over ERE" and she
| wagged her heal oracularly, while
muttering something about these con-
ltemptible Yankees, her visage resem-
lbled huge animated pepper pod.
But the umbrella stayed up.

MILTON.

(From the Milton Globe,)
Ellen Ellenson writes an interesting
letter from Norway.
Milton requires just double the num-
Der of dwellings which it has.
Sup't Fox, with his galaxy of bright
and handsome school teachers cap
tured the town, hands down Monday
morning.
An exceptionally bright, intellectual
and handsome galaxy of educators are
assembled in Milton this week. Cava-
lier county may we'll be proud of its
teachers.
Five hundred dollars cash sales last
Saturday is the record of L. R. Kelly's
general mercantile establishments.
And the busy season has scarcely
opened up.
Our old time friend, Fred Borusky
will open up general mercantile es.
tablishment at Mona, in north Loan
township. He will also haye the post
Office there. His host of friends will
wish him abundant success in his new
business enterprise.
Two hundred and seventy bushels of
wheat from four and one-half acres of
land is the report which Alex. Mclean
brings from his farm just below the
exactly 60 bushel to the
acre. The land was broken last year
and sown to turnips, afterward used
as pasture. and sown to wheat last
spring. This we believe to be record
breaker. His entire crop averaged over
80 bush els.
The numbers given to the orchestra
were taken by Prof. Martin, Of Lang
don, whose renditlons on the violin
were superb beyond description. He
was applauded to the echo, and each
encore was no more than the brilliancy
of his performance merited, which was
magnificent. The wonderful ease and
perfection of his execution, marking
his Interpretation of the most difficult
music extant, has never been surpassed
by a violinist in Milton.
