ST. PAUL, Dec. 1.-The voters In
Minneapolis who have thus far failed to
take out their second papers will have
to pay the regular fee of 81 to obtain
them. In answer to the query OF the
county commissioners Of Hennepin
county the attorney general has ruled
that the county commissioners in a
county where the clerk of courts is on a
salary basis and fees go to the county,
have no legal right to remit the usual
fees for naturalization papers. This
means that either the parties desiring
the papers will have to pay their dollars
or the various political parties do it for
them.

course it is stated that the Marblehead
goes solely for the purpose Of protecting
American interests that might be
threatened ty the outbreak Of disorders
in Hayti. The latest advices from Ger
man sources, however, indicate that 40
occasion will be given for friction be-
tween the United States and Germany
on account of the Haytian difficulty,
and that the matter will be adjusted.
Hayti Not Easily Scared.
It developed during the day that
Fl .yti had sent reply to Germany g
demands which is somewhat remarka-
BILE for its firmness in view Of the diff
ference in size of the two powers. The
Haytian note makes it clear that the
republic is ready to discuss the merits
of the controversy but does not desire
to, have Germany pass judgment in the
first place, demand an indemnity and
thereafter discuss the merits. More
over, Hayti gives notice to Germany
that the German charge d'affaires to
Hayti, who made the recent demands,
is persona non grata and that it is i'm
possible for Hayti to conduct their ne
gotiations with him. 1t is stated that
he offended against all rules OF pro-
priety and official etiquette by going
directly before the president Of Hayti
and, in loud and angry tone and insult
ing manner, threatened dire conse.
quences unless immediate PREPARATION
was made to Germany. This personal
affront to Hayti's chief executive is re.
garded as touching the honor and self
respect Of the country and Is felt to call
for an apology.

sumach. 1t is a shrub growing in swamps
eight or ten feet high, of brilliant glossy
color. There is very little of it in thi:
vicinity; only so far as known in the
swamps on Rocky hill, and in the peat
bed of E. l.. Ranney. Most persons here
do not know what it is. The parties above
named were in quest of some, went to Mr.
Ranney's swamp, broke off and handled
some of the branches, with the result that
both were badly poisoned, Mr.. WellmaI
having been laid aside from work fo
nearly two weeks. 1t is probable that the!
will give the shrub a wide berth hereafter
