THE HEART OF THE YEAR.

Ne have fa1hometl the heart of the year
And we ask as our pleasures abound
II in all the glad years we have found
There was ever another so dear:
Was there ever such verdure before
Or such fair fragrant lilies az these
With whole meadows of daisies to please,
Or Of fruitage SO lavish store?
And we think how we watched for the spring,
How we hailed the first bloom with delight,
How we questioned by day and by night
What the new year, the strange year, would
bring.
And her heart she has shown us, and, oh!
There are pleasures and treasures of worth,
And she scatters them over the earth.
Where the feet of her lovers may 60
And we follow, like children o'erblest
With more gifts than they see in theil
dreams,
And we lnger by forests and streams
And drink of the fountain Of rest.
Oh, year that is bonny and sweet,
For thy blessings so lavish we fain
Would thank thee again and again
And pour out our love at thy feet!

THE WEEK AT
THE BAZAAR,
Thousands of People Ha Wis.
tied the Exposition This
Week..
The Entertainments Provided
Each Evening Prove
Interesting.

The second week of the Bazaar has
proven bigger success. if that were
possible, than the first It has surpassed
all expectations. The results from
every standpoint have been very graft
flying. 1t has commanded the attention
and admiration of thousands Of people,
The fact that the grocers convention
was held here will give the exposition
state reputation and will not only ad
vertise organized labor but the advan-
tayes of our great city as we'll.
The address of last Saturday evening
by Rev. Humason on 1.-The American
Workingman" was splendid one.
Monday night Col. Harris spoke.
Tuesday, Washington's birthday, Rev.
G. Z. Cleland was the speaker of the
evening and delivered an appropriate
address to the occasion. The Union
band furnished patriotic music.
Wednesday evening Hon. John A.
Keyes spoke. MIR. Keyes is favorite OF
the workingmen of Duluth and his ad-
dress was we'll received. Di Marcos
string band furnished music.
Thursday evening j. Adam Bede and
P. J. McGaughey, who were in attond-
ance at the grocers' convention, we're
the speakers. Mr.. McGaughey was the
first to speak. He complimented the
trades unions of Duluth on the fine
showing they had made. Mr.. Nc
Gaugbey uttered many words of en-
couragement for the men interested in
the principles of organized labor. Mr..
Bede said that he should Judge from
what he had been enabled to see by a
hasty look around the bazaar that the
people of Duluth might wall the city in
and by simply importing little food
they could produce all they would
want and IN desired variety.
Tonight will close the bazaar. A
number of stirring addresses will be
made by different members of the trades
assembly. A musical program in
honor of labor will also be given.
Tonight will undoubtedly see the
largest crowd yet. ~

A Possible Undiscovered Gas.

Professor William Ramsey has
given to the British association his
opinion that there is an element, as
yet undiscovered, lying between
helium and argon when arranged
according to the 'periodic law.
While experimenting with helium,
in the attempt to purify it by re.
diffusion, it was found that this gas
could be separated into heavy and
light part, with densities of &c
and "a; continuing the experiment,
after as many as $50 diffusions of
helium, the density of the ightest
portion remained constant at 1888,
and it's refractivity to light as COM
pared with air was 0.1245. The spec.
trum, too, not differing from helium,
one element may therefore be con-
sidered as isolated as pure helium.
The residue is easily altered in den.
sity by rediffusion, implying a small
quantity of heavy gas mixed with a
large quantity of light gas. The
spark spectrum revealed argon in
the mixture to the amount of 1854
per cent by density and la per
cent by refractivity, leading to the
supposition that the new gas is con-
tained as a very small proportion of
argon. Neither helium nor argon
forms compounds, so that the new
element as demanded by the "pe-
riodic law must be determined by
diffusion. This method, howev er,
does not reveal the existence Of such
a gas, though it by no means fol-
lows, Professor Ramsey holds, that
there is no such gas.

FARADAY'S ANCESTRY.

H Proves Acceptable to the Sensitive Eng
lish Upper Crust.
With sigh Of relief our English
contemporaries announce the result
of the investigation into the ances-
trail history of Michael Faraday.
Dismay and CONSERVATION were
plainly visible everywhere when the
insinuation was made recently that
the family of the famous scientist
occupied humble place in the low
sr walks of life. The mice people"
who had been admiring the genius
of Faraday were Mortified at the
thought that among his progenitors
was a common "day laborer. - This
impression is now corrected, and joy
and gladness fill the hearts of the
fraternity on the other side.
A representative of the family,
"John w. Faraday of Hayle, Corn
WALL" furnishes the information
that lone Robert Faraday married
Elizabeth Dean, the owner of Clap
ham Wood Hall, in Yorkshire. This
hall, it is said, was of some beauty,
and of a style peculiar to that part
of the country; architecturally, il
was very effective. Robert Faraday
was the great scientists grandfath-
or, his own father, Barnabas, being
born at the hall" It is explained
that he was one of large family,
the mem bers of which had to shift
for themselves when they left the
parental abode, but particularly EN-.
phatic is the statement that "in no
instance was their condition in life
anything approaching that of day
laborer, a class of men whose po-
sition at that period was peculiarly
miserable and degraded.
Faraday's father was verger and
sexton of the village church, leader
Of the choir and shoemaker by
trade. Faraday's S uncle was the own
er of neighboring quarry and EN-,
ployed a number Of "day laborers''
and "was noted for his kindness to
his employees" Faraday's father,
James, formed an attachment for
Margaret Hastwell, whose "fathe1
was farmer and also an employe yer
of day laborers. He was averse to
the match, being ambitious for his
daughter to marry some one who
had more cash than a youth who
came from Clapham Wood Hall was
likely to have. It is also said that
James followed the calling of a
blacksmith in London, and even
tually married Margaret and took
her to London, where he had to
fight his own battle, and like many
another found it hard enough.
Michael's earlier years are described
as struggle against poverty.
All of which is very interesting,
but scarcely worth the fuss that has
been made about it. However, it
seems as if old world prejudices
must be consulted even when the
recognition of genius Of the highest
order is involved.-Western Elec.

Some of the Thioqs You See.

Only casual mention can be given.
of the many attractive booths gotten up
by the different unions. To your right
as you enter, is the union bakers booth:
with goods furnished by Mannheim and
Scandinavian bakeries. Here you will
find all kiods of fancy products in their
line made by union labor. Crackers
bearing the blue label of the union,
made by the Scandinavian bakery can
be seen here.
Next you come to the butchers booth
with display furnished by Sutphia &
Co. Here is a revelation and is pro-
nounced by all to be the most artistic in
the hall.
At the cigarmakers' booth crowd is
always attracted by the skilled work
man at his bench. It does not need a
strong imagination to draw striking
contrast between this cleanly unionized
place and the dirty sweat shops of our
eastern cities.
The Geyser Bottling Works have a
splendid display here. The Listman
mills of West Superior also display
union brands of four-the Sensational
and Banquet.
The brewers booth has fine exhibit,
showing the material used in the
manufacture m of beer; also samples of
the products of the Duluth Brewing &
Mailing Co. and A. Fitger e. Co., in
both bottle and keg.
You come next to the shoemaker busy
at his work. Here The Famous Shoe
Co. have splendid line eff footwear.
The plasterers at their booth show
what can be done in mortar. Fine
statuary work and architectural models
are furnished by Thompson & Dunlap.
At the Labor Exchange the match
maker can be found. also the magic
oven.
The coopers give practical illustrations
during the evening of how they spend
their working days, while at the boiler
makers and helpers booth you are
politely told that 1--WE are not giving
working demonstrations of our skill.
When asked why, they illustrate by
bringing a hammer down with con-
siderable force on the half finished iron
boiler standing near. No other explain
alton is necessary.
Thos. Hannible has a booth artistic
ally furnished with his upholstering
work.
The tailor shop can be found where
you may get your measure taken for a
suit of clothes with the label sewed on
the inside of your inside coat pocket.
At the laundry workers booth there
is always a crowd watching the pretty
girls at their work.
The pretty stage built at the back
end of the hall shows what the theatri,
cal boys can do. It is artistically
arranged and the stage settings show
the work of artists.

Inc press reports telling of Lieut. Hob
son 8 promotion to the grade of naval con-
structor were in error in stating that this
promotion came as reward for his brave
and gallant effort to stop up the San
uaso channel with the Merrimac. He has
not as yet received his official reward for
that deed. This promotion 10 the grade
OF naval constructor from that of assist
ant constructor was simply the promotion
tnat would have come 20 him in his own
corps had he never seen the Merrimac.
1t was the promotion that came in the
natural order of things.
As for the other, 1t is to come in his
transfer to the line which requires the ac-
ton of Congress. When Congress assem-
bles bill for his transfer to the line will
be passed and then he will be advanced

The interesting discussion has been ad-
Vanced In some quarters that Senator
Wolcott of Colorado be appointed ambas-
coed Col. Hay, who comes home to be-
come Secretary of State. By the advo-
Gates of this appointment il is urged that
Woicott has been done for in Colorado,
through standing by the Republican party
and allowing himself to be made a paly-
thing of in this international bimetallism
farce, and that he of all men deserves
reward at the hands of the President
Some of the Republican newspapers of
the West have indeed gone so far as to
discuss this matter as a serious posi-
biity.
1t is true that Wolcott has absolutely
no show for return to the Senate. HIS
long time pose as a silver leader and his
support of the gold candidate for the
presidency have driven from him the men
who were his ardent supporters and he has
gone back home to find himself without the
semblance of a following
1t would be poetic justice for Mckinley
TO appoint him as ambassador to Great
Britain but there is not the slimmest
possibility that such an appointment will
be made. The gold element, which domi-
mates that party, win never permit it,
Wolcott is a man of brains and culture,
thorough American, and a man who
would, 80 far as personality goes, make
a splendid ambassador; but Wolcott still
holds to the belief that there should be
International restoration of silver, and
even that slight tinge of the silver here
sy" is sufficient to array the gold element
solidly against the suggestion of his APP

goes to London he will be converted and

POPULISTs WILL SPLIT.
Opposition to the Instructions of the
Illinois Delegations.

Cincinnati, o., Sept. 4-The Populist
national convention that convenes here
at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning is not
likely to be harmonious.
The Illinois delegation, consisting of the
state chairman and three others, had a
conference tonight with 10 A. Parker of
Kentucky and quite a number of local
Populists. The Illinois delegates said they
were instructed not to go into a regular
nominating convention at this time, but
simply to participate in national con-
ference of the Middle-of-the-R Readers.
The delegates from Georgia, Indiana,
Kentucky and Ohio, who are not thus in
structed. stated after the conference that
they were opposed to admitting the Hi
nois delegates under such instructions.
After the Populist conference in Omaha
last June the national organization, head
ed by Milton Park of Dallas bolted and
called a national convention at Cincin-
natl at this time for the reorganization of
the POpulist party. This call was after
ward withdrawn, but Wharton Barker
of Philadelphia, 10 A Parker of Louis
Vile and others insisted that the call was
not legally withdrawn and that the con-
vention will be held, although there has
been no regularity or uniformity in the Sc
lection of delegates. 1t will be a mass
convention with free-for-all contests.
