MEXICO's EXHIBIT.
The Story That Attachments Were

The Story That Attachments Were
Levied on 1t Untrue.
Atlanta, Ca, Feb. 4.-The statement
having been printed that attachments
were made upon the Mexican exhibit at
the late Cotton States and International
exposition, it is necessary to say that
they were untrue, in fact. The Mexican
exhibit was not attached and the Next
can commissioner, Signor Gonzales, was
served with no legal papers of any char
acter. 1t seems that shortly after the
opening of the exposition that the gov
eminent of Mexico decided to be repre-
scented. While the exposition was in
progress. and before the Mexican exhibit
had taken full shape. Commissioner Con
zales concluded that he would like to give
il a much wider scope. Several citizens
offered him the money with which to
proceed without having to wait for an
appropriation from the Mexican govern
ment. After the exposition was over the
gentleman who thus loaned the money
becoming i'll, went to Europe and it was
in talking over his affairs that the rumor
got out that the Mexican bill had not been
paid. AS matter of fact, the money
was on its way at the time this talk be-
gan, and the publication of ii in this form
was unjust both to the Mexican govern
ment to Signor Gonzales and to the peo-
pie of Atlanta.
The directors of the exposition, at their
closing meeting, passed resolutions of
high compliment, acknowledging the cour-
tesy and the satisfactory dealings of the
Mexican government.

Fargo, N. d., July 31.-Fusion in North
Dakota is an established fact, and it was
accomplished with greater degree of
harmony than even the flsionists them
selves anticipated or the Republicans
hoped for. At an early hour this morning
the convention assembled and after. an
unanimous adoption Of the report Of the
fusin committee nominating committee
consisting Of one member from each county
was chosen to select a slate upon which the
convention could vote and choose standard
bearers for the Offices allotted them.
The nominating committee did their
work with great elaboration, for it was 3
o'clock before they reported the following
slate: Governor, R. b. Richardson, Penn
bina; auditor, ]. T. Eager, Stutsman;
secretary of state, J. E. Hodgson, Sargent;
railroad commissioners, Oliver Knudson Of
Nelson and F. l.. Walker of Dickey;
commissioner Of agriculture, G. S. Refs

struction, Laura ]. Eisenhuth, Foster;
presidential electors, D. F.. Seigfreid, OF
Barnes, C. A. Digness of Trail and Wilder,
of Morton.
The vote on presidential electors was
first taken and Ex-Governor Shortridge's
name substituted for that of Wilder, who
wanted to enter the contest for state aud
itor. With the exception Of the substitu-
ton of the name of O. G. Majors, Of Steele
county for railroad commissioner for that
of r. L.. Walker, of Dickey, the slate went

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed condi-
ticn of the mucuous lining of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube is int1amed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result and unless the in
hammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever, nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an in1amed condition of the
mucuous surfaces.

REPLY TO BRO. KENNY
The State Secretary Critlcises on the
Attitude of the Former.

ALLIluVC Vi Tic T-OEAlCAs
To the Irish Standard
Saltwater, MINI, July 29-In reply to
the communication of P. Kenny in the last
issue OF the Standard, calling upon the
members Of the A. O. H. Life Insurance
Fund not to pay assessment No. 116 as it
was illegally levied by the state insurance
secretary and should have been paid from
the reserve. fund. The constitution pro-
vides that when the reserve fund shall
reach the sum Of $4,000 the next death oc-
curing shall be paid therefrom.
On May 14th. the date Of Bro. ]. F. Nc
Ginness' death assessment No. 116) the
amount in reserve fund was $1,932.75; con-
sequently we could not pay the claim from
this fund. The date of issuing cards for
this assessment was June Sth. On that
date the amount in the reserve fund, as
printed on the postal cards, increased to
$2,221.
In the past it was necessary to draw on
the reserve fund i'll order to pay the full
amount of $1,000, as stated in our certifi-
cate. Instead of deficiency upon the COL
lection of each assessment we now have a
surplus The last assessment CNo. 113),
which was due May 10th and became de-
linquent May 29th, We collected 1,109 of
which $109 was credited to the reserve
fund in addition to the usual amount col
lected at each assessment from delinquent
members, which accounts for the sudden
increase.
The auditing committee at the state con-
vention, at the request of the secretary,
who was unable to be present, explained
this to the delegates present. l am in
formed by the state president that he has
also explained this matter to Bro. Kenny
on several occasions.
I am also reliably informed that Bro.
Kenny Is strong opponent of reserve
fund and questions the right of the conven--
tion in creating the same, and has ex-
pressed determination Of continued war
fare.
am convinced that when he makes
charges of iilegality on the part of the sec
rotary, he desired to create a distrustful
feeling among the members, which would
eventually disrupt. But we have nothing
to fear, as the time has now gone BY in
our state organization for people of that
class. If he desired to be fair and honest
in this matter, before rushing into print
he would have called upon the secretary
for an explanation; the course then adopt
ed would be perfectly justified, if such ex-
PLANTATION was not satisfactory
hope no member of our insurance fund
will refuse to pay this assessment, as the
amount of subsequent assessments will not
be accepted by the division secretary, and
| if sent to this office shall be returned.

State Insurance Secretary.

JOS. GRIEBLER KILLED
The Famous Bicycle Man Meets With
Terrible Accident.

Joseph Griebler, the Minneapolis rider,
met with a terrible accident in the half
mile open race at the national circuit
meeting in Lima, o., on Wednesday, and
death resulted. AS the men came round
the first turn Griebler must have burst
a blood vessel in his sprinting, for he shot
by Sanger like thu1derbolt, his features
set and his eyes CLASSY. At the turn he
seemed to look forward, and then to duck
his head. He shot round the turn, but the
others did not turn far enough, Greibler
shot to the outer edge Of the track, struck
the lightly raised banking and shot into
the air away over the heads Of the crowd.
He landed into and struck the fence, roll
ing out on the track. He was picked up
and carried to the shade Of tree, but
never recovered consciousness. Griebler.
died 20 minutes after his arrival at the
hotel. He was ~ years Of age and leaves
wife and couple of children. He was
born in st. Cloud and lived there till
about a year ago.

Free Coinage.

Little Rock, Ark, July 3O.-A state
ment was widely published by the press
a few days ago that President G. L.
Greene, of the Connecticut Life Insur-
ance Company, of Hartford, had issued a
circular letter to policy holders notifying
them that in the event that the govern
ment adopted the free coinage OF silver,
the company would be compelled to pay
all claims in deprecated silver coin.
F. w. AIsop, of this city, sent "a clip
ping of this statement to Secretary Of the
Treasury Carlisle, with request for an
expression on the subject. He has re-
ceived reply from Mr.. Carlisle, which is,
in part as follows:
''In case free coinage of silver should
be established in this country, presume
insurance companies and all other instltu-
lions would continue TO make their pay
ments by checks and drafts on banks as
heretofore; in my opinion the whole vol
ume Of our currency would sink at once
to the silver basis, and these checks and
drafts would be paid in silver dollars in
stead OF gold, or it's equivalent, as is now
the case. I presume no one supposes Tor
moment that it would be the duty OF the
government to attempt to keep the stand
ard silver dollar coined free for private In
dividuais and corporations equal IN value
to gold dollar; or, in other words, that
it would be the duty Of the government to
attempt under system Of free coinage to
maintain the parity of the two metals. The
dollars would be coined on private account
and delivered to individuals and corpora
lions as their own property, the govern
ment having no interest whatever in them,
and being therefore under no obligations
to sustain them by guaranteeing their
value.
''Under our existing system all silver
dollars are coined on account Of the gov
ernnlent and are issued by the govern
ment in the payment of its expenditures
and other obligations, and it would be an
act of bad faith, therefore, to permit them
to depreciate. Very truly yours,
81. G. CARLISLE"

The Misses Bridget and Mary A. Ma
honey and Miss Nellie o Brien, who went
as delegates from the Calumet branch of
the Ladies' Auxiliary to the national con-
vention of Hibernians In Detroit, have re-
turned and report a most enjoyable time.
They were royalty entertained, and ac-
cording to their report if the real, old,
genuine Irish hospitality exists anywhere
outside Of the Emerald Isle, Detroit must
take the palm. Miss Bridget Mahoney,
who is president Of the local branch Of
Daughters of Erin, was honored by the
Michigan delegates, By being elected
state vice president. This not only COM
pliments Miss Mahoney, but also the La
dies auxiliaries throughout the state, as
no filter person for the place could have
been obtained.
The Ancient Order held their annual
picnic on. section 16 on last Saturday.
After a parade in the morning, headed by
the best band in the state of Michigan,
j. e., the Fifth Regiment. they repaired
to Section 16, where dancing, refresh
ments, bowling, and other amuse1nents
were INDUCED in. Night was the only
reason that the festivities came to a close
so soon. Even as it was, a, person could
near a noise every once IN aWnlle Wnlcn
was not unlike an Indian warwhoop in the
pioneer days, which reminded him that
some Hibernian was having the full ben
eft of the days enjoyment. A dinner
was served by the Ladies' Auxiliary.
We are sorry to have to announce the
death of Mrs. Richard Welsh, which oc-
Cured last Wednesday. The family are
well and favorably known in Calumet,
where they have resided for the last
twenty-five years. A family OF five boys
and two girls mourn an irreparable loss.

The Girls Who Work.

One Of the many questions we hear dis
cussed at the present time, by earnest men
and women of every creed, is how to assist
young working girls who earn their liveli-
hood in the stores of our large cities.
I have spent fifteen years in the retail
dry goods district, and my position has
afforded me an opportunity of knowing
many facts, and Of studying a few of the
causes that lead so many from the path Of
virtue, says contributor to Donahoe's. My
experience has taught me that number
Of them would have been saved, had their
parents or guardians taken as much inter-
est in their business lives as they take in
the school lives of their children.
In shops and stores girls and boys meet
with many Objectionable men and women,
who have little respect for youth OR virtue,
and whose influence has a degrading effect
upon the minds of the young. To a thought
full person 1t Is certainly astonishing to OBJ
serve the Indifference of parents in regard
to the acquaintance girl makes where
she is employed; and their blindness to the
rllinous influence some people exercise over
the youthful mind, by their manners and
conversation.
I know many girls whose first wrong
step was in meeting these men and women
at their rooms and at hotels, at street cor
ners and at almost any place except their
fathers house, which ia the only proper
place for them to receive their friends.
There are great many girls whose lives
have been ruined by the men who en-
ployed them, or had charge over them, and
ON inquiry into several Of the cases,
found that these young girls received some
pretty present or gift Of wearing apparel,
and the parents never showed the least in
terest, or came to inquire why man
should give their daughters gifts, or what
his motive was in wanting young girl to
be better dressed than her salary or cir
cumstances could possibly allow.
I find that all employers who have a
good moral character insist on their en-
ployes dressing plainly and neatly. Yet a
mother will allow her daughter to accept
a ring or some other expensive present,
anu WIN LAKE IL cts' ASdLtcl VI Gouise, IAldL
her daughter can receive what pleases her,
regardless of the risk she runs
If the parents would win the confidence
OF their children with kindness and SYM
pathy, and use the authority that a parent
should exercise over minors, firmly yet
with gentleness, we should soon see a
change for the better in many of our young
people. -.-
