Landmark Gone,

The granite monument marking the
Mexican boundary line at Tia Juana.
in San Diego county, was upset last
January by a flood, shortly after it was
erected by the international boundary
commission. This elaborate shaft fell
into quicksand. Strenuous efforts were
made to recover it. The sand was.
probed for a depth of twenty-five Feet
but no trace of the lost monument could
be found. 1t has been necessary to buy
new site for another monument, 100x
100 feet, and erect a second shaft
thereon

Wilson.

The commonest name in the new
British Parliament is Wilson. No fewer
than eight gentlemen of that name have
secured election to, st. Stephens. The
task of distinguishing between them
will be somewhat difficult, especially as
five have the same Christian name ef
John. Next to Wilson the most CONS
mon name is Smith. There are fve
Smiths in the House. not reckoning Mfs
Smith Barry. There is only one Browny
and but two Joneses, and a solitary
Robinson.

There should be a Republican club
organized en- the east side by the col

Father Bell, Miles Bell, Wm. Smith,
Albert Moss and Mr.. Davis and
numerous other good citizens of that

great strength. We would like to see
Father Bell made the first president.
He knows what Republicanism means.

The busiest place about the state
capitol has been the secretary's office.
Besides the usual business of the
Office, the reports of various depart

coming in for compilation. The cen

At the close Of the current year the
school of Duluth, Mimi, passes un-
der new management. The two prin-
cipals who established the school
eight years ago, Miss Kate B. Hardy
and Miss Anna r. Haire, withdraw on
account of ill health. The two new
principals are to be Miss Laura A.
Jones, of Boston, and. Miss S. Louise
Mitchell, of Chicago. Miss Jones is
a graduate of Wellesley and later
taught at that institution. but at
present is a fellow at the University
of Chicago. Miss Mitchell is a grad2s
uate of Lake Forest university, and
has been a teacher at Hardy hall for,
six years. Under the new manageE-
ment the school has been affiliated;
with the University of Chicago, over
a guarantee that it's high scholastic
standard Will; be maintained. .The
building is new and has been most
carefully constructed with a view to
the health of the pupils. Sanitary ex-
perts planned the plumbing and ven.
tilation. The principals are to give
personal attention to the table in
abundance of nourishing food such
as is adapted to the needs of grow
ing girls, especially OF those who are
students. While entirely unsectarian
in its character, it will be the effort
of the principals to have the atmos-
phere of the school that of Christian
home.
Thus it is believed that with the in
creasing confidence of the public
which comes from faithful pur-
suance of high ideals, the whole
Northwest may soon be proud of

give full list of them would require
more space than can be given to the
purpose. N1olds that are made of eel
luloid may be used for any article
that is to occasionally undergo the
laundry process, and in combination
with cream-colored scrim and cream
linen thread or crochet cotton or silk
form very durable borders or mats.
Occasionally molds are used in ap-
plique embroidery, in which event
they are covered by as fine buttonhole
stitch before they are arranged in the
design, and are then caught down by
invisible or fancy stitches as preferred.
Numbered with other pleasing ex-
amples of crochet, described and il
lustrated by The Delineator is hair
pin cushion in mold crochet. Four
oval molds and one round one will
be needed in making this cushion.
Cover each with single crochets in
crochet silk, and fill in each center
with network made by crossing silk
threads at right angles. Then with
double crochets make a little bag
under the round or. top mold and .fill
it with curled hair, such as is used in
making mattresses. Next fasten this
to the oval molds so that the latter
will support it as seen in the engray-
ing. Cover a bit of cardboard with
silk, satin or velvet and edge it with
silk cord, forming the latter in
loop at each corner, and to the founda-
ton fasten the supporting molds. If
preferred, the foundation may be COW
cred with crocheted section.
A combination of colors may be used
in making this cushion, or the silk
may be of a tint which harmonizes
with the other decorations of the
dressing stand. If preferred, wool,
cotton or linen may be used in place
of silk for the crochet work

WEDDING BELLS.

The Florida Star, of Titusville, Fla,
of a recent date, contains the following
announcement:
One of the prettiest weddings which
has occurred for many years on Indian
river was that of Miss Edith Louise
Valentine, daughter of Mrs. Amelia E.
Valentine, to E. l.. Hart, of st. Paul,
MINI. The ceremony was performed by
Rev. Mr.. Butler, pastor of the Congre-
gational church, Melbourne, Fla, at
the residence of the brides mother,
Bayonne plantation, Tillman, Fla, in
the presence of about two hundred in
vited guests, many of whom had known
the bride from early childhood.
The spacious parlors and halls were
elaborateiy trimmed with ropes of briar
and bamboo vines, white jessamine,
Easter lilies and roses.
Promptly at o'clock the strains of
Mendelssohn's wedding march. given by
Mrs. E. c. Campbell, signaled the en-
trance of the bridal party. Miss Helen
Valentine. as maid Of honor, preceded
the bridal couple, who We're followed

If the success Of the Civic ball can
be gagged at all by the way in which
the people who have the arrange
ments in charge are working, it will
certainly be the most brilliant affair
that has ever been given in this city.
The committees of gentlemen who,
first of all, are responsible for the
entire arrangements will need not
only the assistance of other men,
but also the invaluable cooperation
of the women who represent st. Paul
society. The suitable recognition of
the great honor that has been done our
city by the owners Of the beautiful
vessel, is a matter that certainly ought
to appeal to every citizen, and as the
giving of a ball has been the method
chosen by our representative citizens
of raising part of the necessary funds,
the assistance of every st. Paulite
ought to be freely given. A list Of the
women who had been invited to act as
patronesses of the affair was given
last Sunday. From a few accept
ances have been received, but the
members of the committee, while anX-
ious to acknowledge the letters OF
acceptance that have come in to them,
feel that the great majority who were
invited to assist in this way, simply
considered it unnecessary to reply to
the requests sent them, as their help
and assistance in such matter might
be taken for granted. The list of the
women who have been heard from is
given below:
NTesdames J. J. Hill, D. A. Monfort,
D. r. Noyes, ]. A. Wheelock, M. Auer-
bach, F. P. Wright, Walter H. San

When he made the sudden change he
feared that he had contracted con-
sumption from over-study and a gem
eral weakening of the system brought
about by confinement and hard work.
He took matters into his own hands
and decided that a butcher shop was
the best place for a man with weak

idea, for today he is fat and strong,

Special Correspondence of the Globe.
NEW YORK, May 80. = One of
these days a strange book may be
thrust before tie public gaze from the
pen of Frederic r. Coudert. 1t will
have nothing to do with the Bering
sea commission, nor with any of the
varied niceties of litigation, subjects
which Mr.. Coudert's mastery know
ledge could make fine reading for
lovers of weighty literature.
In all probability the book will never
be written, but it will not be for lack
of interesting material. Mr.. Coudert
has been collecting it for the past
thirty years. He hasn't any name
for the collection. 1t is simply a
colossal aggregation Of facts concern
ing strange changes in the careers of
men, and it offers abundant opportu-
nifty for psychological speculation. Mr..
Coudert devotes a small portion of
each day to his unique collection.
Many of his friends know of his
strange fad, and whenever they near
of any astonishing fact relating to
the subject, they collect the data and
forward them to him.
The collection shows many curious
things = men who have abandoned
high and remunerative calIings to
follow some ordinary pursuit, and men
who started at COMMON drudgery and
by a whim of Dame Fortune were
waited into the lap of luxury.
For instance, one of the oddities Of
the collection tells about a reputable
lawyer of twenty years Standing in
The metropolis, who gave up his prac-
tice a year ago, and is now selling
patent medicines on the road. He is
not making much of a success at it,
but likes the peculiar excitement of
the life.
