Cities never build up themsel YES.
They start when men start them.
They grow only when men develop
them. They become cepters of trade
when men there center capital in
unity of force. A few live, bra my
men, men with limited capital if
you will, can pave the way for new
railroads, manufacturing concerns
and other business enterprises not
dreamed of by the soul sleepers.

opinions aud one not averse to Civ

sermon of last Sabbath, in referring
to the possibility of war between the
United Safes and Great Britain, he
said: 1T would be enough to cause
Il jubilee in hell, to be followed by a
chorus of the enemies of good will

To decide whether the flag of Great

The Russian metho d of dealing
with refractory heretics is unique IN
this age of the world. If one OF the
cars subjects is charged with hold
ing to an unorthodox religious faith,
he is visited and ordered to convert
himself TO the Greek church within
a given time. An imperial ukase is
sued in the spring gave the heretics
two months to change their theology.
If, when tho time prescribed has ar
rived, the accused has not yet had
himself converted to the true faith,
then he is pronounced outlawcd.
To be outlawed is something no.
commonly understood in America.
If an imperial ukase has pronourc
ed man and his family outlaws,
it means literally what 1.-The word
indicates. 1t means that his neigh
bors may rob him. seize and bind
him and carry off all his goods; may
drive him from his home and take
possession of it themselves, as
the English sparrow does the blue
bird: they may even beat him al
most to death, strip the very clothes
off his back, and he can haze no re-
dress, for he has been formally pro-
nounced beyond the pale of:.the pro-
lection of the law. If the outlawed
man should be murdered, no notice
would be taken of it, for he would
no longer be Russian citizen.
Those pious, tender hearted souls,
the emperor of Russia and his cabinet,
recognize no man as Russian citi-
zen who does not belong to the
Greek church.
Under the circumstances, when a
man has been warned by imperial
ukase that he must be converted, the
best thing he can do is to be convert
ed very quickly or else get out of
Russia even more quickly.

A sort of modern Don Quixote ap-
peared inPennsylvania at Christmas
time. He did not go fitting at wind
mills, but at chimneys, and got the
worst of it. He took the Christmas
traditions literally, it seems, especially
the story of Santl Claus climbing
down the chimney. Whether he had
been taking anything else previous
to his attempt to interpret Santa
Claus literally is not disclosed, but
on the face of things it looks like it..
This honest farmer determined
that he would be the Santa Claus of
his house. While his wife and child
dren were asleep he could easily have
distributed the gifts for each so that
they would have found them on
waking in the morning. That is
how less Conscientious Santa Clauses
do. But no! In the mind of this
Pennsylvania Dutchman the saint
had to come down the chimney. It
was chimney or nothing. Why this
had to be thus can only be explained
on the supposition that the honest
man had been taking something, as
above hinted. At any rate, though.
he stole softly out of bed, dressed
himself up as the Christmas saint,
climbed upon the roof and prepared
to squeeze hims elf down the wide
old chimney.
The long and short of it is that he
stuck fast half way down and near
ly died of cold and fright. He might
have been there to this day only that
when his wife missed him and search
ed for him in the morning she heard
voice in the chimney. 1t was an
awfully weak voiced Santa Claus
though. She could not get him out
and had to call the neighbors in, and
they worked an hour and a half and
finally tore down the chimney before
they could extricate the farmer.
This is the difference between old
times and our degenerate time.

states Of the Union and on July 4tn
next another star will be added to

forty five one for each state. Now

family will accord her very hearty
welcome.
Mankato has had a public meeting,
appointed a committee on Fourth of
July celebration and the program of
sports and amusements for that far
off day has already been formulated
and published in the papers of that
city. It is we'll to be enterprising at
all times but never hasty. Mankato
should have considered the fact that
all her able bodied men may go to
war before the Fourth of July shall
have arrived and in that case all the
work and worry of prepari ing that
program will have been useless.

NAMED for citizen of Minnesota to
make demand upon his representa-

history as one of the most curious re-
quests ever made. He received ONE
days ago letter from an old soldier
of his district which recites that he
lost a leg by amputation as the re-
rult of gun shot wound during the
war. The knee joint, in which the
bullet took effect, he says, was pre-
served by the surgeons and is now
one Of the exhibits in the army medi-
cal museum in Washington. He
gave the number of the ''specimen,' y
and requested the congressman to go
over and look at it some day when he
was not pressed by more important
business.
