HER LATCHKET EXPERIENCE.

1t was her first experience with a
latchkey, AID it wouldn't open the
door, try as she would, says the Chica-
go T!mesHeraId. Presently man
passing along the street hesitated,
looked at her for a moment, and ascend
ed the steps. If he had spoken to her
she would have screamed ;as he didn't
speak, she screamed anyway.
Two seconds later that obstinate
door was tlurg violently open and the
family, il varying stages Of negligee
attire, precipitated themselves upon
her and the front steps. Several mas
culine members of the family seized
the intruder, who was actively engage
ed in making peculiar and wordlegs
gestures, and dragged him into the
glare of the nall lamp.
What did he do to you?n What's
the matter?" Call the poIice.'' and
sundry Kindred exc!amations rent the
air OF the hallway and were hurled
at the head of the offender, and it
was some time before the uniuten-
tional cause of all the disturbance was
able to make his uuoffending voice
heard at all.

When the Brahman cleans his

one OF Il number of certain trees, and
before he cuts it he must make his

He must not indulge in this cleanly
habit every day. He must abstain on
the 9th, the Sth, the 9th, the 18th, the

principal which. rs shown recently in

generally recognized ard acted upon
in philanthropic work The idea
among tie ruost intelligent and sym

the home and TO make it a centre Of
moral Influence by increasing its at

public house in England, draws to it
many who would avoid it were their

is phase of the temperance question

That the prohibition question

that the right men are nomin-

The American flag now floats
over Santiago, Gen. Toral having
Internationally surrendered to
Gen. Shafter and his army. The
surrender of the Spanish forces
without having to resort to an
other bloody battle is very graft
flying to President Mckinley and
his advisers. who claims that it
would have cost at least 5000.
American lives to have stormed
and carried the city. The port
has been declared open to COM
mence, revenue and postoffices
are being established there and
it is said that business invest
ments will be good hereafter and
everything will soon be running
along smoothly at Santiago. A
military governor will be ap-
pointed by the president and
some sort of a government
established. The American
forces are marching tc victory
right along, an expedition now
being on its way to Porto Rico
and it looks as if Spain could do
nothing else than throw up the
sponge and give in. President
Mckinley is determined to vigor-
ously prosecute the war to the
end and it would be foolhardy
for Spain, already deprived of
her navy and $4,000 of her
soldiery already surrendered, to
continue the war.

The populists and democrats
held their joint state conventions
in Fargo last week and had a
very harmonious tine-nit. The
two bodies finally adjourned af-
ter wrangling over a name for the
ticket without nominating a sim
gle man, leaving it for commit
tees to nominate the ticket after
the big republican convention,
thus showing that they were
afraid to nominate and taking
the whole matter out of the
hands of the people of those
parties and letting the bosses do
the whole thing. Such action if
taken by the republicans. but
call forth from the opposition
such storms of reproach that we
would never have heard the last
of it. The resolutions all point
to state issue and the Is to 1
theory has been laid away in

is advisable to bring it forth
again. The old time politicians
of the fusion forces will nominate

Notaries Must Use Stamps.

A resident Of Park Rapids, Mimi,
asked the Minneapolis Tribune
whether acknowledgements taken by
a notary public required revenue
stamps on them. The Tribune says
one OF the judges Of Hennepin
county has given the following
opinion on the subject:
.sThe revenue laws says that any
certificate required by law requires a
10 cent stamp. A certificate does
not always on its face say it is a
certificate. Anything that certifes
to anything is certificate, and if re-
quired by law, must have the stamp.
1t is the intent of the law to tax
every paper used in business that is
required by law. To cover this the
section referred to was made. There
fore, notarial certificates, when
placed upon papers when the
notarial certificate is required by
law, must be stamped. A paper
made by notary where that paper
is not required by any law, need not
be stamped. If it is necessary be-
cause of some law, a 10 cent stamp
must be affixed, no matter where
used"
