Art..,.n water In Sahara.

One Of the most important results Of
the Egyptian expedition mp the Nile
has been the discovery that BY sinking
deep wells water may be found in the
desert in many places where its pres
ence had not been suspected. Not only
will this give secure basis for mill
tary operations, but it is possible that
water may be found in sufficient guam
titles to serve for irrigation, in which
case the Sahara may be turned into a
flower garden. It's aridity comes from
no material sterility of the soil, but
simply from lack of moisture.

| Slick Thanksgiving CRATER
Avoids the POstOffice.

This is the season of the year that
the stranger with a plaintive tale of
distress seeks to work the sympa-
thetic people. BY his touching appeals
for aid he succeeds in victimiZing the
generous and unwary.
An instance of this kind was brought
to the attention of Relief Agent Hutch
ms Tuesday. A fellow who claimed to
have been recently released from pris-
on. sent out a number of letters to st.
Paul people prominent in works of
charity. His was indeed a hard luck
story. He said that since his release
he had been in ST. Mary's hospital in
Minneapolis, but was now able to work
only he could find no employment,
and starvation stared him in the face.
young lady, the secretary of a
benevolent society, answered his ap-
peal, sending him small sum of
money, as he requested, to the name
given, at the general delivery Of the
postoff1ce She also said that if he
would call at her house the next day
she would find some work for him to
debut he didn't call. Revs. Jensen
and Edwards also received similar let
tiers from him, but they turned these
petitioning missives over to Secretary
Hutchins, who promptly put Chief of
Detectives Schweitzer into possession
of the facts.
A detective was stationed at the gen.
eral delivery window to watch for and
arrest the enterprising fellow, but the
chap did not appear. He simply sent
word to have his mail forwarded to La
Crosse.

Geek school at Hamline contributed two
loads of food and $3.50 in money
The young ladies at the state cap
itol Clipped in and delegated one of
their number, Miss Dora Tanning, to
take down an order for three sacks of
-four for the needy ones. A young man,
a student in the Central high school,
contributed an order for ton of coal,
which will be divided between two fam
lilies. An elderly gentleman on the hill
sent in several chickens with the re-
quest that they be given to widows
hundreds of contributions came in,
some large, some small, but each show
ing the tender thoughtfulness of the
giver and each destined to bring ray
of comfort and sunshine into some
otherwise gloomy home.
There was a lively scene at the So
ciety headquarters. The vegetables
We're received at the basement and
sorted. Sacks were provided and each
was filled about third full of pota-
toes, onions, apples, ETC., and was then
taken to the floor above. Here a COM
mittee consisting of Rev. W. N. jamie
son, Mrs. Hutchins, Mrs. Parks, the
Mrs. T. c. Jones and c. w. Horn COM
pleted the work of filling the sack I'M
til it fairly bulged with the many good
things to eat-oatmeal rice, coffee,
sugar, tea, cocoa, nuts, canned goods
and either turkey, chicken or piece
of meat. The sacks were then marked
with the names Of the persons to whom
they were destined, the list having
been carefully made out, and common
cling at o'clock yesterday afternoon
the delivery of them took place. Many
of the applicants for assistance came
to the office and carried away their ap-
portionment, while two delivery wag-
ons served to convey the rest to the
outlying districts. Some of the WORK
of distribution was undertaken by the
Kings Daughters, by one or two of the
churches and by several of the school
rooms, but care was taken to avoid
any duplication.
Agent Hutchins states that about 200
families with a census Of from 1000 to
1900 persons, were thus cared for 1t
was the most successful and most
liberal distribution of the kind in the
history of the society.

AN ULTIMATUM,
And HOW 1t Can BE Carried Out.

And How 1t Can Be Carried Out.
The Conover Music company, the
first of the month, announced that they
had decided to have an entirely new
stock for the holiday trade and to make
the necessary room would place all
their secondhand and shopworn pianos
and organs on the floor at greatly re-
duced prices for a great thirty-day
clearance sale.
1t has been a decided success IN
every sense of the word, and although
a large number of instruments have
been sold, a good many bargains can
still be found. These pianos are all OF
good, reliable makes, in first-class con-
ditfon, and no matter what price you
may wish to pay, you can rest assured
YOU will find what you want. If you
are not prepared to take it right away,
make a small deposit and have it set
aside The new stock has begun to
arrive and we fatter ourselves that
the assortment could not be more com
plete. The prices are very reasonable,
for the simple fact that we are large
manufacturers and are not obliged TO
pay two or three profits for an instru-
nlent. If you can not call drop US
postal and let us tell you more about
them, Conover Music Co., st. Peter,

MORE CLUES AT HAND.
A Woman Recognizes the Clothing
Found on the Dead Body.

The only development in the Lam
bert Lake mystery yesterday was the
receipt by Sheriff Wagner of a letter
from a woman who claimed to be able
to tell a great deal about the affair 1t
was a lengthy communication, and
from it's contents, evidently written by
some one who has carefully examined
the clothing of the dead woman at the
undertaking rooms. The writer says
she recognized the clothing as that of
woman who is alive, but explains
that this same woman and a female
companion We're camping near the
place where the body was found, Gnd
that the companion has been missing
for some time. Sheriff Wagner is in
clined to look upon the letter as the
work of some one fond of a joke, but
will, nevertheless, thoroughly investi-
gate the matter.
Detective Campbell yesterday receiv-
ed the shoe of the dead woman from
Coroner Nelson and will use it to assist
in running down a clue upon which
he is working. Reports of several adj
ditional missing women have been re-
ceived by the authorities, and each case
will be investigated with as much dis
patch as possible.

Today is the day that the turkey
enters upon the one sublime unselfish
function of his life, the day when he
ceases to gobble and is gobbled, the
day where he may be found at dinner
mot where he eats. but is eaten"
There can be no disappointment at
tending the celebration of this Thanks
giving. 1t is bound to be celebrated,
and celebrated with joyful relish,
despite the weather. The seasons
vagaries-if any should visit st. Paul
today-cannot destroy a keen appetite
nor dampen the good cheer that pre-
sides over the family feast. While
green and gloomy Christmas, with It's
foreboding Of a fat churchyard, i'm
presses US with a feeling that nature
is not in sympathy with the day, there
is no known device of the weather clerk
that can defeat the gastronomic costa
sizes of Thanksgiving day or save the
turkeys head
Reminders that this is Thanksgiving
day will be seen on every side today
In the forenoon while the preparations
are on foot for what is coming, many
churches will open their doors, and
services will be held, that the day may
be observed in a spiritual way COM
memorative of the deep gratitude of
the Pilgrim fathers! The various char
liable institutions, hospitals, homes for
the aged and fnfirm, orphan asylums
and the likewise will make the occa-
sion a joyful and memorable one for
their inmates. So all pervading is the
benef1cent spirit of the day that I'M
fortunate tenants of the work house
and Jail will be remembered in a boun-
teous and substantial manner. AS for
the hotels of st. Paul, a part Of whose
every day duty it is to minister to the
inner man, they have prepared special
menus, a mere glance at which will
cause the mouth to water.
So, rain or snow, dark or bright, hot
or cold, this day is bound to score an
unqualified success And the turkey
we'll, "requiescat in pace" as he does
in every we'll organized stomach.

Mrs. F. w. Hauenstein and Her
Daughter Seriously Injured,

A New Ulm special to the G o b e
received last night says: Mrs. F. w.
Hauenstein and daughter were very
seriously burned by the explosion of a
lamp this evening. The lamp had been
standing on the leaf of sewing ma
chine at which she was working The
little boy removed the support, the
lamp fell and exploded and fire caught
the dress of the girl. In trying to ex-
tinguish the flames the mother was pain
fully burned about the face and arms.
The daughter. girl of five or six years,
had all her hair burned from her head
besides receiving painful wounds in the
face and on the body. The physicians

suit fatally.

done to the building. Neighbors pass
ing just at the time of the accident
