A Queer Impulse.

While passing the Milwaukee depot
at st. Paul on her way to church serv.
ices Sunday morning, Mrs. Richard
Casey, wife of wealthy farmer near
North St. Paul, was seized with an ir.
resistable desire to to take trip. The
train was in the depot and she found
she had just enough money for ticket
to Chicago. Her husband missed her
after church, and, learning of her de-
parture. telegraphed the Chicago police
to detain her on her arrival. She ar
rived in Chicago the next morning,
worn out, hungry and penniless, and
said she would be glad enough to get
back home. She could not account
for her action except that she could
not resist the sudden impulse.

The ice palace of St. Paul will con-
tain 10000 tons of ice. It is proposed
to model it after the Parthenon. The
architects plans show building 10 by

A Duluth Bank Suspends.

Duluth, Mimi, Dec l2.-The National
Bank of Commerce failed to open for
business Friday morning. A notice
posted on the doors stated that, owing
to the inability to make any money in
the business, the directors had decided
to stop. The notice also stated that the
bank expected to pay depositors at an
early date. The bank is capitalized at
100000 and has 100000 surplus. lis
deposits have been gradually but stead
lily drawn down since the failure Of
the Security bank, and it has been un-
able to make any profit for some time.
Collections were hard and could not
keep up with the Withdrawals. The
bank owes eastern banks as re-discount
something like $4,000. E. w. Matter is
cashier. The deposits of the bank four
months ago were 100000. At the time
of closing Thursday evening they were
only $4,000.

A Big Seizure.

Sam Fullerton, of the game and fish
law commission, with Deputy Game
Warden James Nash, of Minneapolis,
made the largest seizure of game ever
made IN Ramsey county. The seizure
took place in the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul railroad yards at St. Paul,
and the game seized was venison. Now
the officers are looking for the persons
who shipped the meat. which filed an
ordinary box car and was consigned te
parties in Boston. New York and Chi.
cago.
The value of the meat seized is $10,.
800 at the market price, and something
like $4,000 may be realized in fines.
The meat is chopped up in pieces ready
to be disposed of to retailers. and there
is fine of $50 for each piece seized. A
possible settlement may be made.

Contest Decided.


Judge Ives has decided the election
contest case in the office of probate
judge of Norman county. The facts
are that at the election the face of the
returns showed w. w. Call1ins to have
received 1887 votes and M. A. Bratt-
land 1854. On Oct. 10 Gov. Clough, by
proclamation, established voting pre-.
cinct in the White Earth reserv alton,
embracing six towns in Norman county
and three towns in Beltrami county.
Ninety-eight votes were cast therein
for this Office, of which Calkins re.
ceived 20 and Brattland %. These
votes were counted as cast, and the
canvassing board certified the election
of Calkins. Brattland appealed, and
Judge Ives reverses the decision of the
canvassing board and declares Brattr
land elected. In his conclusions of law
he finds that Gov. Coughs action was
void and it was wholly unauthorized
and without warrant.

MINNESOTA STATE NEWS.
The Cling Insurance.

The answer of the Trayelers's Insur-.
ance company of Hartford to the suit
brought by Julia Cling as administrator
of the estate of Catharine M. Cling to
collect the 1000 alleged to be due un-
der the accident policy issued on the
life OF the murdered girl, has been
fled The nugget in the answer is
found in the allegation that the policy
does not cover intentional injuries
(inaicted by the insured or any other
person)." BY special agreement this
clause was made not to exclude claims
for personal injuries. fatal or non-fatal,
received by the insured while in the
act Of defending herself, family or
property from the assault of burglars,
robbers, thieves or pickpockets.
The injuries are claimed to have
been received "while not defending
herself" The last defense is that the
suit was not commenced until over one
year after the death of the insured, and
hence that it is barred by the contract.

RUN AT A LOSS.
Expenditures Exceed Receipts In Postal
Service-Protest Against Abuses.


Service-Protest Against Abuses.
Washington, Dec. 9-A vigorous protest
against the abuse of the postal service is
made In the annual report Of Postmaster
General Wilson. He quotes figures which
show an excess Of expenditures over re-
ceipts of ,0SS for the last fiscal year,
which. however, is decrease in the de-
f1ciency Of $1.679.956. as compared with the
previous fiscal year. This satisfactory ex-
hibit for the last year has been made pos
sible. the postmaster-general sets forth,
by vigorous policy of bringing suit or
pushing collection on bonds immediately
after default. which Is the only safe prac-
tice for the interests of the government
and those of the obligers.
The postmaster-general argues that there
Is no necessity for the annual deficit in the
revenues Of the department, and that but q
few lines Of amendment by congress to the
postal laws will wipe 1t out and give In its
place steady surplus. 1t has its chief
source. he says. in the transmission at
second-class rates of large and rapidly
increasing volume of matter never in the
contemplation Of the law. which gives the
nominal rate of one cent pound on such
matter. and assuredly outside Of the policy
OF the law as to newspapers and period
icals.
The report recites the strenuous efforts
In the past to secure legislation designed
to protect the postal service from this
waste Of its earnings and the taxpayers
from the large burden imposed on them by
the regular deficits. But. it says. up to now
the combinations and active efforts of the
beneficiaries of this abuse have parried all
appeals of the department.
Postmaster-General Wilson discusses the
proposed one-cent letter rate, the cheapest
postage in the world. He says Il would
yield great profit but it is idle to talk of
such reduction while two-thirds OF our
mail matter is handled at small frac-
tion of it's cost. and the deficits OF the de-
partment in consequence have aggregated
in II years. since the act of March 3, 1885,
(one-cent-a-pound rate) the enormous sum
of 81, 80, ,480. This is made up from the
,avails of general taxations, and there is
the further sum of $15, ,962 earned by the
Pacific railroads for transporting the mails,
which was certified to the secretary Of the
treasury for credit upon their indebted
ness to the government, an ascertained
deficit Of $S6, Az. This, in fact, should
be further increased by the unascertained
overtime letter-carrier claims and the un-
iiquidated Indebtedness of the department

peafness CANNOT he cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portions OF the
ear. There Is only one way TO cure
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition Of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a
rumhling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when II is entirely closed, Deaf
ness Is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out, and
this tube restored to its normal condl-
tian hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition OF the mucous
surfaces.

CAMP JOHN A. LOGAN.
,,.., the Veterans are Putting in Their
Time at the Reunion.


I'm JorRNAL.-I arrived in camp
Sunday afternoon and found that
mite a number of the comrades had
already encamped on the grounds In
excellent good humor and full OF an
tlclpation and enthusiasm for the
coming events of this week, which
ppmlse all that is grand and glorious.
There are at present II camps upon
the grounds with about 100 people all
told beside the large numbers of Wis
itors that are pouring in and out con-
Santly.
There has been some excellent pro-
gammes prepared for each days en-
tertanment, aside from the speaking,
camp fires in the evenings and explor-
inc excursions. Some Of the most |
eminent and eloquent orators of the
state have been procured to deliver
addresses each day Of the week and
owing to the unceasing and seemingly |
untIring efforts Of Colonel Baker,
Judge ]. r. Fairbanks, the Ladies
Relief Corps, of Linn and Marion
counties and others ofIthe committee,
nothing seem lacking in making this
one Of the grandest encampments in
the history Of the Union.
On account II the unsettled weather
yesterday, they were obliged to post
pOne the programme and other pro-
ceedlngs until today, but notwith-
standing the uncertain weather the
campers were eager and restless and
small parties could be seen pouring in
and are sightseeing, exploring, fishing,
etc; Of which there is plenty OF each.

Bradshaw and daughter Carrie, Mr..
Prescott, and daughter, Mrs. Pugh
and children, Miss Bessie Davis, Miss
Lila Olinger and myself under the
guidance Of COmrade Hartunes, took a
Stroll up to the Shellburg Falls, dis
lance OF two miles from camp to see
ine sights. Nothing of especial inter-
ea was encountered en- route, except
iOs the many rare specimens Of shrub
oefE enhancing views, etc. Upon ar
HVlng at the Falls we beheld a sight
which seemed TO arouse our poetic
SOUS into action and there were mur-
mus and exclamations of rapture and
uenght at the beauty and grandeur
which confronted our view. There
were the Falls in all their glory, leap
