THE "CENTENIAL" AGAIN.

A person does not need to be over
astute and needs only an average
knowledge OF the history of State pol
itics to see that the Missionaries of
the Minneapolis "centenial club have
made an offensive and defensive alli-
ance with Senator Davis. Minneapo-
lis is to have no candidate for the
United States senate nor for governor
if these men can prevent it, but Hen
nepin county's strength will GO. to Mr..
Davis, who will reciprocate when two
more years have rolled by. It is an
alliance at the expense of Mr.. Nelson
and it is surprising that Mr.. Davis
should be led into it, as he owes his
last election directly to Mr.. Nelson's
inf1uence.-Alernnd,S0 Post Neeus.

OFFERS A SUGGESTION.

Political economy says that money is
the measure of value. The definition
would be nearer the truth if the word
material was put before the word
VALUE" There are several important
things in this world which a material
civilization bent upon attaching a
price-mark to everything cannot meas
ure in dollars and pounds sterling.

HOW TO DO 1T.

Don't be bashful. The right thing
to do is to stop the newspaper man on
the street or any place you happen to
meet him and tell him. that you have
been away on a VISIT that you had rel
atives visiting, that you entertained
friends, or that you have been doing
good. If you have done anything
mean of course you will keep that to
yourself, for there are others who will
tell that.-CrO0ksto, Times.

ONE OF THE BEST. @t
Governor Clough's steady, straight
forward course must excite the admir-
alton of his friends and the respect of
his enemies. In the matter of build
ing stone for the new capitol the Min
neapolis journal charged that he was
responsible for the selection by the
commission of Georgia marble. When
this was shown to be false the Mime
apolis Times turned it's mud batteries
upon him and charges him with using
his influence to secure Kettle river
sandstone because Jim Hill is inter-
ested in the quarries there. It's case
of be damned if you do and be damned

right on working for what he believes
to be the best interests of the people
of the State. And do you notice that

INFLUENCE OF POLICIES,


According to some statistics COM
piled by Major Whoun, of the regular
army, wheat goes up whenever Re-
publican president is elected, and goes
down whenever Democrat gets into
the White House. In 1883, under
President Arthur, the average price of
wheat was 81 cents per bushel. In
1884, after Cleveland's first election. it
fell to 81 cents, drop of q cents, and
only rallied slightly during his entire
term, selling during the last year at
an average of SO cents. When Harri-
son was elected in 1883, wheat at once
went up to SO cents, and the decline
during his term went only to an aver.
age of 81 cents in his last two years.
Cleveland's second election in 1892 sent
the price down to 63 cents, and the de.
cline continued until it reached 4e
cents, the lowest point in a century
With millions of men out of employ
ment, consumption necessarily fell off
and the farmer had to share in the
general shrinkage of incomes. Lei
any one who is inclined to belittle the
influence of political policies upon bus
mess conditions cut this out and paste
it in his hat.-Pioneer Press.

Several Factors Combine Ut Last Hour on Stock Market to Lift Trading Out of Dull and Depressed State.

Several Factors Combine nt Last Hour on
 Stock Market to Lift Trading Out of Dull
 and Depressed state.
 New York, Dec, 23,-several factors combined in the last hour of trading on the stock exchange to-day to lift it out of the dullness and depression which had been its character all day and to raise prices quite sharply above last nights closing level. One of these fac tors was the subsistence of apprehen- sion caused earlier in the day by the closing of the Chestnut street bank in Philadelphia. Another was that the Joint Traffic association had succeeded in securing measures going to assure the restoration and maintenance of es- sions and grain from western to eastern ports. Another was the announcement from the treasury department at Wash ington that suf1icients amounts of the currency sixes were being offered for redemption on December 27 in accord ance with the governments proffer, to assure relief to the money market from the scarcity threatened by the with drawals of the Union Pacific payment to the government. Still another factor was the news from Albany that the railroad commission had extended by trx,n WAC apiitnrfocs O. freight cars with automatic couplings in New York state. A number of the specialties which had showed marked strength all day took on renewed buoy ancy at the close and helped on the rise. The movement in the general list was not important the trading being in small volume and representing little more than the covering of traders short contracts The Vanderbilt roads failed from yesterdays depression on account of the unfavorable quarterly state ments. Canada Southern is 11s lower and Michigan Central 1A lower on the day. Lake Shore was bid down points but without any transactions. The days business, however, was largely absorbed by the specialties under the influence of special causes. Third Ave- nue gained points on top of yester- days rise of points. Metropolitan Street railroad rose an additional 2 points and Manhattan as much. Brook lyn Transit, Sugar, Peoples Gas and New Jersey Central are over a point higher These securities not only show the largest gains, but absorbed the greater part of the days business. Call
 money loaned as high as per cent again and did not yield below 3 per cent There was a further fall of A | in the actual rate for demand sterling and of 1s for cables and long sterling. Demand sterling is now at the lowest point touched since the gold import
 movement in September, namely 4.S4M. | The rates for money in London and
 Berlin are stitfly held and some appre- hension of a squeeze before January 1
 is reported from London. This served | to offset the weakness in exchange
 rates. 4,

THE JUNIOR PROM"
Arrangements for This Brilliant Society
 Event Abolt Comp1efe5

Arrangements for This Brilliant Society
 Event About Completed.
 The Junior promenade, the social event Of the college year, will take place Thursday evening, January 25, in the Second Regiment armory. The festivi- ties will, as usual, open with the concert of the Glee, Banjo and Mandolin clubs on Monday evening, in the Hyperion tbeater, after which the different class es will hold their class germans. The number of teas and receptions will be very large this year. All but the final arrangements have been made, and from present indications the Prom. of 1898 will not be inferior to any of those of previous years
 The committee elected from the junior class having entire charge of the Prom. are: W. E. s. Griswold, chair man; F. H. Brooke, floor manager; William F. Whitehouse, Carroll F. Sweet, James McD. Magee, Henry T. Bowles, Alfred G. Vanderbilt, Charles H. Wells, jr., and Harold c. Cheney. The color scheme adopted for decora- ting the armory is red and white walls with black Japanese panels and ceil- ing of pale blue. Each box will be sur mounted by a canopy of red and white.
 c. H. Roster of New York city will carry out these decorations. The music will be furnished by Lander's orchestra of thirty-fve pieces, and Dreka will en- grave the programmes. If possible the method of disposing of the boxes em- ployed last year will again be used, which will materially lessen the expense to each man. A fair price is placed upon each box, and the applications of the members of the junior class having been arranged by lot, they may choose any box they wish. This does away with the exorbitant bonus which have prevailed at the autcion sales of boxes in past years. The programme will consist of eighteen dances with as many intermissions and five extra. The car riage contract has been awarded to Murray, and the prices will be substan- tially the same as last year.
 Following the custom of previous years the members of the committee have decided not to send flowers to their partners and all who attend are re- Quested to do likewise.

BOYS ARE LEARNING TO COOK,
A Novel Departure in the Cincinnati
 High School.


 One of the most unique features in ed ucation that has ever been tried in this city is a cheap cooking class for boys, which was started at Hughes High school last week. Seven young gentle men out of an enrolment of ten were present, and were initiated by Miss Hull, the teacher into the first myster- les of that science which their sisters have hitherto claimed as their almost exclusive prerogative. Judging from the enthusiasm with which the boys went at the work, and the skill which they displayed under the careful guidance of Miss Hull, the young disci- pies of Epicurus will soon be competent to do the family cooking, and thus dis pense with the overbearing Bridgets and Honorahs who have held sway in the culinary regions. The class assem- bled in the cooking rooms in the base ment of Hughes and put on the regula- tion cap and apron. Then Miss Hull, in a ten-minute talk, proceeded to explain to them the simpler processes of chem- istry which are involved in the art of cooking. After this a few practical H. lustrations were given of the cooking which they were to perform. A row of gas burners was lighted, and each boy was furnished with an egg and egg poacher. The resulting poaohed eggs would have done credit to the cafe of any swell restaurants or hotels. Pota- toes were then started roasting and bread was toasted. The value of bread crumbs and their proper preparation and preservation were then elucidated to the young students, and whole jar ful was prepared by them and set aside for the next recitation. The menu thus prepared was served on a table by the boys, and they proceeded to regale themselves on the fruits of their work. The skill displayed by the boys was very noticeable, there being no acci- dents, save g. burned finger sustained by Master Shaw in his eagerness to toast a piece of bread. Miss Hull expects to make very good lot of cooks from the present raw material, and from the en- thusiasm they displayed the boys are not whit less eager to become prof. cient in the art.-Cincinnati Enquirer.
