HER CYCLE BOOK.

TIE bicycle book is the latest. a pretty
couceit, which will doubtless find
favor with the fair devOtees of the
wheel. if not with those Of the sterner sex.
1t is intended to be used as sort of diary
OF ones trips and to record the speed and
length of each ride. Like the address book
and the calling list book. which have been
found really useful. this little book is
handmade. The best of paper should be
used and the cover should be of canvas,
parchment OF lea ther. A tiny painting or
d pen and ink drawing OF a wheel, with a
suitable motto or apt quotation would
be lust right for decoration.

THE SLEEPING CHAMBER.

THE japanese believe in banishing from
the bedroom everything which is not
really necessary to that department.
All things useful they make as decorative
as possible but for mere ornaments sake
little or nothing is added. unless it be a
vase containing flowers arranged in their
own inimitable way, or something else
equally simple.
Their custom will bear consideration by
the housewives of our Western world. for
by this japanese method the utmost neat
ness, simplicity and repose is possible.
Add beauty and daintiness, and little else
is left TO be desired Bedrooms so ap-
pointed may be easily kept in order and free
from dust-that foe 20 comfort and health
Wonankind.

Rev. DR.. Rogers Repeats His Lecture
on Ben Hur.


The Illustrated story OF Ben Hur was
told by Rev. A. G.. Rogers last night at
the Church OF Our Father, before an
audience that evidenced its appreciation
in frequent and vigorous applause. The
lecture was divided into four acts prefaced
by brief sketch of the visit or the
magi to the Christ-child at Bethlehem. and
was interspersed with music by quartet
of mixed voices, solos by Mrs. j. T.
Exnicias and by Miss Constance Horworth,
who whistled the ben uur March" at the
close OF the chariot race in most effective
style.
The lecture was rendered with realistic
force that reached its climax in the scene
depicting the healing of the lepers, while
the numerous pictures shown on the canvas
were not only artisticaily colored, but
possessed an historical value as chara cteriZ-
ing the nature OF the people and country
OF that most eventful time.
The entertainment was for the benefit OF
the W. c.. 7. Z.

OF the two cartoonists who have made
American art famous in their particular
tield--one, Thomas Mast; the other,
Bernhard Gillam-it must be said that
both were foreign born. Mast is German
Gillian was English. 1t seems odd, too,
to find that Gillian IS first ambition was
to paint serious tragic and other pictures,
and it was not for some time after he
had been working ::,as an artist that he
struck his gait and found he was hui
morist and cartoonist. But when shall

Women and Work.

In an address before the Rochester
Woman's Educational and Industrial
union Hon. Carroll D. Wright, commits
sioner of labor, declared his belief that
the general entrance of women into the
money earning occupations would tenn
porarily decrease the marriage rate and
swell the divorce rate. But he added,
"This does not brighten me in the least. -
He believed that for time there would
believer marriages, but they would be
happier ones. The commissioner idea
is that when women generally earn their
own living they will be free and indie
pendent and will not marry merely for
a home, support and protection. He CON
siders that the woman who does this
merely sells herself and degrades herself.
'sThe growing sentiment that an edu-
Gated and skilled woman is better and
truer life companion than an ignorant
and unski]lful one, woman's gradual
approach to mans powers in mental
work and her general equipment through
technical education, her more positive
dedication to the life work she chooses'
are some of the agencies which, work
ing along the line of general progress,
will bring about the industrial eman-
cipation of woman" When that eman-
cipation comes, when woman is no lon
ger dependent on man for her living,
Mr.. Wright believes the advancement Of
civilization and the uplifting of society
morally will be rapid.

has good strong ring. It proposes that
when any prisoner in the state is taken
from the hands of officers of justice by
a mob and attacked or Injured by the
mob he shall be entitled to recover from
$1,000 to S., 900 damages in proportion
to the extent of his injuries, and the
county in which the affair took place
shall pay these damages If the person
suffers death at the hands of the mob,
then his legal representative shall be
entitled to collect $4,000 from the
county.

Campos was apparently recalled fro:

Campos was apparently recalled from
Cuba because he was not cruel enough
in his system of waging war. The new
captain general, Valeriano Weyler, is so
we'll known in Cuba as man Of blood
and terror that Cuban exclaimed when
he heard of the appointment, THE dead
will rise from their graves to fight him. -
During the last rebellion he was sent to
Cuba and made himself terror. If the
stories told Of Polayieja, the new COM
mander Of the Spanish army, are true,
then the red Indian scarcely exceeds him
in barbarous methods of conducting
warfare. But perhaps this very severity
and cruelty will bring Cuba's freedom
all the sooner. They will certainly tend
to make other nations accord the patriots
belligerent rights.

The Sons of Veterans Celebrated Lincoln's
Birthday.
An audience Of about $50 gathered at
GA. r. hall last evening where the
Sons of Veterans held Lincoln's Birth
day services.
The program opened with the sing
ing of the ''Stars Spangled Banner
which was followed by an Invocation
by Rev. F. H. Roberts. Judge Dickey
then delivered an appropriate address
of welcome and then Marching
Through Georgia" filed the room with
music. Memorial Hymn" a recita-
ton by Miss Katie Sausser, was the
next number and was very nicely rem
dered and was followed by that popu-
lar G. A. r. song, Tramp, Tramp, the
Boys are Marching'. .-..#
Then came the address t''Abraham
Lincoln, :" delivered in G. A. Dickey's
mastery style. ''We Are Coming,
Father Abraham" was the next must
cal selection and then Mrs. Rose Pat
terson recited Whittier's Claus Dec"
most acceptably. The quartet rem
dered ''The Old Oaken Bucket,' and
Mrs. Wetsel entertained the audience
with one of Lincoln's favorite selec-
tions, "Wanted, a Man." Addresses
by Comrade T. H. Galley, Capt. D. W.
Spaulding and Rev. F. H. Roberts fol-
followed. I. G. Patterson acted as
master of ceremonies.
The Ladies' Aid furnished light re-
freshments which were partaken of at
the close of the entertainment and one
OF the pleasantest occurrences of the
wear was at an end.

"A PeaSe Episode.

A number of Hollanders from the
Dutch settlement near Pease were in
Princeton Tuesday to secure warrants
for the arrest of two young men who
we're formerly residents of that place
on the charge of abduction for immoral
purposes. They left without making
a formal adieu to their associates and
a 15-year-old girl disappeared with
them. The trio has since been located
at a little town in Swift county and the
arrests will probably be made soon.

, Our Holidays.

What are the legal holidays in Min
nesota now is the question that has
been asked very frequently since the
announcement a few days since that
the anniversary of Lilcoln's birthday
is now legal holiday in this State.
The blue book says that the legal
holidays of the State established by
law are February %, Washington's
birthday; May 80, Memorial day;
first Tuesday after the first Monday in
November in even numbered years, be-
ing general election day; and Feb.
H., the anniversary of Lincoln's birth
day. The statutes of the State in
directly recognize Sunday, Thanks
giving day, Good Friday, Christmas
day, New Years day, and Fourth of
July or the day following when either
of the last fall on a Sunday, as legal
holidays, by providing that maturing
paper, bills of exchange, ETC., falling
due on those days, shall be dre and
payable on the business day preceding:
This statement made by authority of
the State itself ought to be correct but
we learn that some attorneys are in
clined to dispute it's complete correct
ness.-Red Wing Republican.
The Load Tipped.
Ben Soule, jr., reports an accident
and a narrow escape from a fatality
which occurred Friday at his logging
camp. He, with Merit Smith, was
driving a six-horse team with a load OF
logs when they hung on a stump. Al
ter pulling for some time they dis
lodged the load but when it struck the
snow it tipped. Mr.. Soule jumped
clear but Smith was thrown off strik-
ing squarely on his head in the road.
He laid there a minute or more com
pletely dazed, while bunk full of logs
rocked back and forth over him,
threatening to spill at any moment.
Smith finally recovered enough to get
out of the dangerous position, but his
head was badly cut and he will be laid
up for some time. The logs followed
Mr.. Soule and he was only saved from
being crushed by a small tree, which
caught the logs and held them back.
