Great preparations were being made for
the stopping of Companies and E, of the
Twelfth Minnesota regiment, at Winona for
the benefit of Mr.. Tawney, who has publicly
announced his desire to get back
into congress- but, according to Adjt Gen.
Corbins reply to Congressman Tawney's mes
sage, the soldiers were unanimously in favor
of proceeding to New Ulm, where the people
of that city have extended a most cordial
welcome as an appreciation of worth OF
course, no one wants to be blamed for Mr..
Tawney's blunder, and of course nobody
wants the blame for anything these days.

Coronets at Auction

Some queer commodities find their way
into the auction room but 1t Is not every day
that a coronet may be picked up at a bar
gain in a salesroom This was what hap
pened yesterday, when marquis coronet
was put up and knocked down by Con-
duit street auctioneer. 1t is odd enough
that such an adornment should find its
way into the vulgar atmosphere of fur
niture dealers and brokers' men; but that
ANYBODY should want to buy secondhand
coronet is odder still. The biddings, it is
true, were not keen. They began at a
couple of guineas and went up to G5 at
which the coronet went into the possession
of some apparently plebeian person-cer-
tainly not marquis. But then the article
was no longer practicable" as they say
on the stage. The original owner, or pos
sbly IAN heir or an assignee" had SO
little use for it that he had cut 1t in two
and mounted it as a pair of wall brackets.
1t is commonly supposed that peers cor
onets, like royal diadems, are of gold.
That is not so. They are of silver, "rlchly
gilt" as in the case of yesterdays bauble.
This particular one bore the hallmark of
1881, which suggested that 1t may have
been made for the coronation of William
". That there should be so little compe-
tition for coronets in their material form
is explained by the rarity with which they
are worn. There are probably not half-a-
dozen peers living who have ever had one.
They are worn only at coronation, and
then, at the moment when the archbishop
of Canterbury places the crown on the
sovereigns' head, the assembled peers and
peeresses simultaneously put on their sill
yer circlets with their crimson velvet caps.
Indeed, it may be shrewdly suspected that
most peers do not even possess this tangi-
BILE badge of their rank.-London Chroni-

FLAMING SWORD IN THE SKY
New York Excited Over a Wonder in
the Northern Heavens

New York-Some said it was "the sword
of the Lord and Gideon" and foretold war
at hand. Those less inclined to discern
signs and wonders in the heavens thought
it comet or the aurora borealis, or the
reflection of a distant fire. Whatever 1t
was, the spectacle drew thousands into the
streets and upon Brooklyn bridge to watch
and wonder. In the northern sky was
gigantic sword of fire. 1t appeared shortly
after s. o'clock in the evening, and hung
suspended in the heavens for nearly two
hours. 1t rose from near the horizon, half
way to the zenith and was the hue Of liv-
ing flame. There was white cross of
peace upon the rising moon. This was be-
fore the fiery sword appeared in the north.
and vanished when the signal of war
fleshed out. The two celestial phenomena
were the talk of the whole city out of
doors.
The flaming sword broke into <hree
pieces shortly before 10 o'clock, and by
that hour had disappeared entirely. The
weather man said the cross on the moon
was a lunar halo, caused by ice crystals
in the air. and that the flaming sword was
the reflection of a fire reported from Fort
Lee. But those who love signs and won
ders said it foretold war with Spain and
victory for the United States, the power
of the north. They said the cross on the
moon meant that peace would rise from
the sea upon distracted Cuba when the
American naval sword had chased home or
sent to the bottom of the ocean the galleons
and warships of Spain.

him. Keep your eyes to the front, and the

fidelity to trust. When the same principles
are brought into politics that enter into
business life, then man can enter the
political field with honor to himself and
credit to his country. When the pressure
comes to lead to the right or left, ask your
self what is best for your country, and then
stand fast. BE patriot, and loyal to your

Croker's Fathers Strong Box Found

During the clearing out last week Of the
old city court room, where Mayor Van
Wyck used to preside, there was un-
earthed strong box, which once belonged
to Eyre Croot Croker, father of the pres
ent chief of Tammany Hall.
1t is of oak, brass bound, about 15xS
inches, and though probably seventy-five
years old, is well preserved. The box was
brought here by Mr.. Croker's father when
he and his seven sons landed here from
ireland in 1886. 1t is presumed to have
contained what little money and docu-
ments Mr.. Croker, ST., possessed. The box
followed him in his career as veterinary
surgeon until his death. Then it passed
into the hands of his son, George, who, I'M
til his death, two monts ago, was clerk
in the city court Colonel Martin Reese,
jantor of the city hall, discovered the
box in the midst of a pile of rubbish. Gu
riosity prompted him to examine it. On
finding the name Off. c. Corker" en-
graved on the plate of the lid, he notified
Mr. Richard Croker. and was requested to
send it to his residence. There it will be
placed among other helrlooms Of the fam
ily.-New York Journal.

soners yesterday granted the Iona Oil
company permission to bore for oil In
the block bounded by Pearl street, Hinton
avenue, Beaudry avenue and the Victor

Chief Moore reported that the petitioners
had a majority of the necessary frontage,
but that the oil well would come within
tile S5O-foot limit placed about the Sisters
hospital at the recommendation Of the
board of health, but which has since been
removed by the same body in report made
last Saturday.
In the discussion which ensued all the
commissioners took a hand.
Commissioner Sabichi declared that If
there had formerly been any reason in the
board Of health's action, there was just as
much reason now. If the sick in the hos
pital needed consideration then, they were
in need of just such consideration at the
present time. There was moral RESPONSE
bility resting on the fire commission which
could not be removed by any erratic action
of the board of health.
Mr.. Sinsabaugh commented on the pecu-
liar and inconsistent action, and wanted to
know If all the members were present when
the resolution was adopted.
Commissioner Wells felt that the pa
tiems in the hospital should be protected,
but the health board had simply tied the
hands of the commission, and as one of
its members he did not propose to assume
a stand outside of his duties as fire COM
missioner, and in the face of contrary
action taken by a board that ought to
know what is best for the patients.
There apparently being nothing else to
do, the commission then issued the per-
nit, Mr.. Sabichi alone voting no.
On a favorable report from the chief.

LET THE LADY STAND
Unemployed Man Explains Bitterly
Why He Would Not Rise

Isaw a little episode in a Main street car
one night last week which illustrates Pc
cuiar condition of society in the average
American city. The car was humming
along through the upper part of town. 1t
was a rainy night, and the car was well
filled. AT every street corner women were
crowding in laden with water-soaked
bundles. and all looking more or less be-
dragged and out Of sorts. AT Main and
Mohawk streets a smart-looking, wei
dressed young woman entered the car
and stood hanging to the straps. Directly
in front of her sat sad-faced but very
respectable looking man. He looked up
at the young woman, but gave no indica-
ton that he intended TO give his seat TO her.
One by one the men had surrendered their
seats to the women until only two or three
remained sitting. Standing next to the
smart young woman was another
young man. evidently a man of DO
sition, who knew her. AS the car rushed
up along toward Cold Spring the smart
young woman swung about on the straps
and showed signs of WEAKNESS. Still the
young man in front of her made no motion
toward surrendering his seat.
oh l am so tired it seems as though I
would drop down." she said to the young
man standing by her side. OF course tina,
was too much for her gallant friend, and,
STOPPING over, he said to the sad faced
young man sitting down: my friend,
would you have the kindness TO give this
young lady your seat? She is very tired"
The sad faced young man folded his arms
resolutely and replied: mo, 1 will not
have the kindness to give this young wo-
man my seat, Last Monday morning she
took my place in Blank & Cos. as book
keeper because she would work for SO a
week less than I was getting. If she can
take my place in business she can take my
place in the street car. have a wife and
little baby starving at home. l have been
tramping the streets all day trying to find
work. 1 am tired, too
Everybody in the car turned to listen 10
the sad faced young mans words. They
were very earnest. The smart young wo-
man turned with a sheer and looked into
the face of the young man who stood be-
side her. Nothing more was said.-Buf-
