Prof. Alexander continues to draw audi
ences that fill Ranke's hall every night.
The subject OF last nights lecture was
Heads and Temperameats. The pro-
fessor's lectures have no relation whatever
10 the many dry discourses that have been
given here under that name in the past.
They are decidedly original. both in
thought and language, and brim over with
Irish wit. His subjec; tonight will be The
Training OF Children at the close of
which the professor Will select from among
those present some half dozen boys and
girls as subjects for the public examina-
tions.
He will sum up and contrast their differ
ent organizations and will tell them what
they would be best adapted TO in order to
make the most OF themselves as useful
men and women.

On Monday morning last at 10 O'Clock, at
Fontainblesu. the wife and children Of Judge
Chidsey, Of Scranton, had a wonderful escape
from instant death. Mrs. Chidsey had been
visiting her mother, Mrs. II. J. Allen, for a
week. This morning, accompanied by her
husband and sister, Miss Hettie v. Allen, she
started to the rontainbleau depot to take the
train for Scranton. The two ladies, with the
baby, 70 months old, started OF 10 4 buggy,
drawn BY . mustang, Mrs. Chidsey driving,
while her husband and her father, Mr.. n. J.
Allen, and . friend Of the family, Mr.. Oakley
DsBeck, we're to follow in another vehicle.
The ladies had hardly gone = hundred yards
whsa the mustang for some u~naccountable
reason became frightened and dashed ID mad
II through the woods. He had gone but q
short distance when be ran into . pine stump
with sucA force a. to throw The horse q con.
plsts somersauit. throwing out the three oeeu-
pants and turning the buggy over on top Of
them. The horror stricken men ran farward
with all their might, when they saw Mss
Hettis Allen crawl from beneath the ruins,
holding the baby to her breast. A few Sec
osds later Mrs. Chidsey erawled up between
the erossbar and the axle. At this moment
the horse started to kick. The lady quickly
recognized the danger, jumped over the ruins
and ran, ~ - to escape the peril. Strange to
say, though the buggy was entirely dsnol.

Morris tribune., 1896-04-29

The gubernatorial aspirants, Lee,
Van SAINT and Eustis, have come to
the conclusion Though rather late to
tumble to conceded fact) that Clough
is far the strongest candidate in the
field. They have formed three
cornered combination and agreed to
be dictated to by w. D. Washburn,
for the sole purpose of carrying
Hennepin county The question for
the people to settle is whether they
want the state ruled by the people
with Gov. Clough as their leader, or
whether they want the state ruled by
w. D. Wrshburn with one of the
above named conspirators as his
leader. These men, by their combi-
nation, have practically admitted
that neither one can beat Clough by
a fair and square and open hand fight;
that they have to combine and resort
to trickery and underhand work, and
that they have grave doubts in their
own minds Of even carrying Henne-
pin county. 1t looks very much as
though the fight would simmer down
to the field backed by Hennepin
county against Clough backed by
the rest Of the state. At least the
present move is more liable to make
more friends for Clough than enemies,
as we yet fail to see any concurrence
in the combine outside of Mime
apols and very little in.
Morris tribune., 1896-04-29

of Morris was visiting his friend, Col
Bevans, at the Office of the adjltant

voted the Democratic ticket" he re-
marked, ''but if the Republicans
should conclude to nominate Clough,
l have promised myself the luxury of
voting for him next November" He
further said that he believed that
Clough would have the delegation
from Stevens county. Soon after one
of the attaches of the capitol ap-
preached The Times representative
and pulled him behind the door.
"Say," said he, "did you see that duff
fer in there talking to Col. Bevans a
little while ago? Well, perhaps you
did not know that the colonel is trying
to have him appointed one of the
fish and game police out there at
Morris. He is friend of Col. Bev-
ans and you know $50 per month and
livery hire is a great deal of money
these hard times"
Morris tribune., 1896-04-29

prosperous farmer living near Cave
lier, N. D., two years ago this spring.
The writer had occasion to meet Mr..
Hines two years ago and succeeded
in obtaining from that gentleman a
full knowledge of his railroad enter
prise. The first step taken was the
starting of newspaper in Cavelier,
for the sole purpose of enlightening
the farmers on his proposed venture.
He informed us that at first the peo-
pie did not take kindly to his venture,
but the more he talked it the more
converts he got. He encountered no
trouble whatever in raising the neces-
sary capital for the purchase of roll
ing stock after the road had been
built. The farmers all along the
proposed line turned out and done
the grading and built the road, taxi
ing stock in the road for their work.
The road was then bonded, and the
bonds were easily disposed of by Mr..
Hines to Eastern capitalists, the pro-
ceeds Of which were used in equip
ping the road. The plan was at first
laughed at and ignored by the rail
roads in that section, all of which had
no terrors for the projectors, and at
last when it became an assured !suc-
cess these same corporations changed
front and are nov doing everything
within their power to prevent the
operation of the road. The building
of the road means to the farmer an
increase OF 3 cents bushel on their
grain shipped and like amount
saved in hauling in.supplies. The
example is worthy of note among all
farmers, and especially in those sec
tons where they are ridden to death
by heartless corporations.
