MINNESOTA VS.. GR1NNELL.
The Game Next Saturday Exciting
Interest.

Interest in the game which the university
football team is about to play is becoming
intense. The first big game is with Grin
nell next Saturday, and the past record which
has been made against this team by the
varsity men indicates that most exciting
contest will be the result. Two years ago
the Iowa team barely defeated the uni
versity by score of 6 to and last year the
locals turned the tables at II to 0. The
Minnesota team is counting upon giving the
Grinnellites such beating that all vest:ge
of the old defeat will be wiped out. How

Reminds Him of Chicaeo.

John Goodnow has begun operations at
Shanghai. At least he has written several
letters to friends in Minnesota. To friend
in st. Paul he writes that he likes Shanghai,
as it reminds him of Chicago. He says COM
merce is rapidly increasing, buildings are
being erected and that the town is enjoying
a genuine big boom. He complains, how
ever, that the business is largely in the hands
of the English, and that the Americans con-
troll but little. He thinks the hust,ing quail
ties of the Yankee VII soon put him in po-
sition to build up an immense trade with
China.
Mr.. Goodnow intends to look into the re-
sources of the empire soon, and is at present
arranging for an extended trip into the in

1t is now generally acknowledged
fact that severe physical exercise, nota
bly, excessive bicycle riding, is as sure
ly as an over-indulgence in beer a pro-
moter of albuminaria. The insurance
companies have taken cognizance of
this fact and the subject was discussed
recently at meeting of the Association
of Life Insurance Medical Directors,
held in New York. DIR. p. Glover Lyon,
of London, secretary of the British Life
Insurance association, took part in the
discussion. DIR. j. c. Young, of Newark,
read a paper on "Albuminaria." DR..
George f. Shrady said: "Men in train
ing for a severe form of sports are sell
dom in good health, although they think
they are. 1t is the vital organs and not
big muscles that fit a man for a long
and healthy life. A person should not
be examined for insurance when he is
in training. Anything that calls for
great temporary exertion of muscular
force will produce temporary album
inaria.'

to get him out of the country. They
went to Col. Cockerill, and in his own
words is described what followed:
II undertook to do so on behalf of
the New York Herald, knowing full
well that if was discovered would en-
counter the malevolent queen, and that
ii might not go well with me.
The plan, as arranged, was that the
prince and young In CHICO were to dis
guise themselves, cutting off their hair
and dressing like Japanese servants. l
was provided with letters which would
secure me the cooperation of the cap
tain of one of the little japanese steam
ers plying between Marpot, the landing
for Seoul, and the port of Chemulpo.
AT point we were to secure passage on
"a steamer leaving either for Chefoo,
Tien-Tien, Shanghai or Hong Kong
any place outside of Japan. y It
was agreed that the prince should leave
the country as my valet"

and before the time for the escape ar
tually arrived the queen had been muir
dered, the king deposed and Tai-Wai-
Kun, the princes crafty old grandfa-
Their, had assumed the reins of govern
ment. He communicated with the
prince, who returned to the palace.
Later his father resumed the throne
and became reconciled to the boy.
This, however, did not end his
troubles. He started with Rev. j. S.
Gale, an American missionary, to come
to the United States in March last.
When the steamer arrived he was not on
board. Mr.. Gale announced that he had
been prevented from leaving Yoko-

which ultimately becomes hardened

But in spite Of the universal distribu-
ton OF diatoms as a class, there are
certain species OF the tiny plants that
are of very restricted habitat. A con-
siderable number, for example, which
are easily recognized under the micro
scope, have until recent years been
supposed to be confined exclusively to
the seas about Behring strait But
when Nansen made his trip across
Greenland five years ago he collected
dust from the ice foes of the eastern
shore of that island which, on being
subjected to microscopic analysis after
his return by Prof. Cleve, of Upsala,
was found to contain numerous spcci-
mems Of these Siberian species of dia-
toms. The conclusion seemed uuavoid-
able that there must be open-sea CON

SOME DIATOMS.

(Highly Magnifed Under the Microscope
ferred that there must be an ocean cur
rent which had conveyed the diatoms,
on their ice raft, from Siberia to East
ern Greenland.
OF course, there were other clews
that pointed in the same direction, but
perhaps no other single bit of evidence
was Sc influential as that furnished
! by the microscopic diatoms in giving
hansen that faith in a polar current
which his subsequent experience with
the Fran so fully justified. This cur
rent, as everybody knows now, since
Nansen and the Fran have returned,
hows to the northeast along the coast
of Europe, is detected to the north
west, and sweeping across the polar
region, flows as a return current along
the eastern shore of Greenland, and on
to the south. 1t was this current which
had swept the diatoms to the locality
where Nansen found them, and which
came so near floating the Fran to
its desired destination beneath the
pole.
1t would appear that this great cur
rent which surges across the polar sea,
whose existence few besides Nansen
himself were disposed to credit until
now, is really continuation of that !
current which in temperate ATTITUDES |
of the Atlantic is called the gulf stream;
current which owes its existence, |
it is believed, to the trade winds that |
sweep the tropics. So we are presented |
with the curious paradox, that the mo-
tive power which drove the helpless
Fran, cased in an almost boundless
mass of ice, through the frigid polar
sea, was really the torrid wind blowing
along the equator.
Who would have predicted, asks the
Chicago Inter Ocean, that a micro
scopic plant would be the chief guide
post, and a tropical wind the motor in
an all but successful assault upon the
polar stronghold?
