though sentenced to be hanged last
Friday, and the question is now being
asked, will not this arch murderer
yet die of old age instead of on the
gallows? Yet Durant was convicted
on purely circumstantial evidence
and there are many who believe In
his innocence. 1t was the lack of
direct evidence that saved Luetgert,
but it is he seeming lack of confidence
in our criminal laws that hung Alec
Coudot, Paul Holy Track and Phillip
Ireland last week and which makes
lynch law popular.

McKinley's policy toward Spain is
one of peace. 1t is thought that his

that Spain will soon be able to

A writer asks why it is that some
people, otherwise bright and intelll-
gent on all other subjects, can never
learn to spell? The question is an
swered briefly, that the ability to
spell correctly is a gift and not an
requirement. Looked upon In this
light the ability to spell should never
be used as q test for ones intelligence
or responsibility. There are those
who can neither spell good nor even
acquire by any human effort the art
of good spelling, yet who are intelli-
gent and perhaps mentally superior
in every other way to the average
good speller. They, perhaps, have
made almost superhuman efforts to
acquire the art of good orthography,
and though nettled on by the sneers
of their more fortunate neighbors,
yet have made a dismal failure.
Good spellingis as much gift as sing
ing, painting, speech making, etc.

The patrons of the splendid tele-
phone system of the two counties,
Pierce and st. Croix, ought to APP
preciate good thing when they have
it, and they do. Yet to be satisfied
with the service as it now exists
would be impolitic The management
of the two phone systems will agree
with us in saying that the service
should be extended to the Twin Cities.
This means an additional outlay of
money but at the same time it means
great convenience to every patron of
the telephone. To be connected with
the Wholesale houses and shops of St.
Paul and Minneapolis would be worth
much to the business men Of this
city as we'll as those of other towns
and cities. 1t is believed that 1t the
question of cost were the only barrier
in making such an extension that

will probably locate one of the two
GAINESVILLE teams being organized, at
Cambridge for the season, providing
he can not-induce the Twin Cities to
fill the place left vacant in the league
by the resignation of the Canal Dover
New Philadelphia team. Cambridge
has been his choice from the first, but
it is not likely we will enter the league,
but team could be located here to
good advantage for both arrangements.
We have the finest grounds on the cir
cult and frst-class hotel and railroad

saving in cash to the league managers"

An exchange tells of a wheelman who
hung his bicycle from the ceiling OF
his cellar, and not far from a swinging
shelf on which food was kept. A mouse
jumped from the wall onto the tire of
the front wheel, evidently hoping
thereby to reach the shelf The wheel
started and mousie naturally ran to-
wards the highest part of it. 1t was
unable to stay on top of the tire, but
couldn't get enough of a foot hold to
jump to the wall. When discovered
next morning the mouse was found
very much exhausted. though still run
ming. The cyclometer showed that it
had travelled oyer 2S miles.

The Wheeling Register says: "A
wrong impression prevails among the
Wheeling river shippers that the Ar
gand will go out of the Wheeling and
Parkerspurg trade and will be succeed
ed by the Courier, the boat which Max
Gamble bought at Nashville. Such is
not the case. The Argand is q fixture
in the Wheeling and Parkersburg trade
and is doing first class business. The
Courier will run between Pitts sburgh
and Parkersburg, probably taking up
the old schedule of the Argand when it
ran to Pittsburg. Nothing has been
heard from Capt. Gamble when he eX-
poets to put his boat into the service
between the points mentioned, but it
is suppC sed to be soon"

gave him the rig. Biszantz claims
Chrstmeyer sold him the rig. Bis
zantz pulled the casing recently and
Smith had him arrested and fined $40
for trespass There is suit pending
in the Circuit Court growing out of the
same circumstances.
Mr.. Christmeyer was first placed on
the stand. A good deal of ill-feeling
SO evidently existed between the wit
ness and defendants that several
wordy scraps occurred between them,
and also the rival counsel. In fact, it
was very heated legal contest all the
way through.
The jury found verdict in favor OF
the plaintiff, awarding him possession
of the property and S25 damages for its
unlawful detention.
