tenant, whose term expires this fall but
who will again lease it for one or more
years, if owner is willing.
This farm can be so divided as to
make two good medium-sized farms. The
neighbors are all that need be desired.

WHAT THEY REPRESENT:

The button with the blue and red
fields, with the star near the top, bearing
the name of "Eustis,' represents his
native heath, the Lone Star State" and
is the Republican emblem that will be
worn all over the state of Minnesota in
the coming campaign.
The button with the red and white
fields, with the Goat Of Arms of
Sweden, bearing the name of Lind"
represents his native land and is the
Democratic emblem that will be worn all
over Minnesota in the coming campaign.
These very worthy gentlemen are in the
field for governor
The button with the red and black
fields, with the seal of the state Of New
York, bearing he name Of Cole" rep
resents his native state, and is the en-
blem Of medical success all over the state
Of Minnesota and the Northwest, in the
treatment and cure of all blood and Sc
cret diseases Of men, at Minneapolis. DR..
Cole is in the field for business, and
rightly, too. for he has devoted nearly
quarter of a century to the study,
treatment and cure of all of those hid
den diseases peculiar to men, and few
men in the medical profession in this
country or Europe are as we'll equipped
in the matter OF these lingering troubles
as Dr. Alfred L. Cole, OF Minneapolis
Then he is an idefatigable worker and an
astute advertiser, for he has always con-
tended that
If you expect to conquer in the battle Of
today,
You will have to blow your trumpet in
firm and steady way,
The man that owns his acres is the man
that plows all day,
And the man that keeps a-rustling is the
mar that's hero to stay
But the man who advcrtiscs with a sort
of sudden jerk.
Is the man who blames the printer be-
cause it didn't work
The man that gets tho business uses
brainy printers ink.
Not clatter or a sputter. but an ad
that makes you think;
And he plans his advertisement as he
plans his well-bought stock,
And the future of his business Is as
solid as a rock.

From Drogheda Cromwell led his mon,

Two days later Cromwell summoned the
town to surrender. On the 18th Gen. Sim

ten conditions, the chief Of which were:
The free exercise of their religion and
retention OF church property, and liberty
to the inhabitants to leave for any other
place they might desire. To these terms
Cromwell replied: Il shall give the SOL
diers and officers quarter for life and
leave to go to their several habita-
tions. And as for the inhabitants, 1
shall engage myself that no violence
shall be offered to them, and that
shall protect their town from plum

Before the Irish general could consid-

man to open the doors OF a castle that
commanded the walls. BY this means
the troops of Cromwell poured in and
captured the town. The garrison re-

DR.. Nicholas French, the iiustriols

then lying i'll Of fever in neighboring
village, has left us an important refer
ence to the Wexford massacre. In this
letter DR.. French writes: "On that
most calalnitous day the city Of Week
ford, Astounding in wealth, was carried
at the point Of the sword and given up
to the Infatuated soldiery by Cromwell.
There, before Gods altar, fell many sa-
cred victims, priests of the Lord, who
were seized outside the precincts of the
church; some were hanged and others

the citizens was shed till the very

In Waterford, on July 20, sensation

Lunatic asylum. An inmate escaped
and was followed by an attendant. The
lunatic climbed over high wall and
from that on to a telegraph pole, which
he climbed with agility. He was fol-
lowed by the attendant, who he tried
to shove off the pole. He then placed
one leg on the wires and another on the
top cross-bar, and, standing upright,
folded his arms in dramatic manner.
He next proceeded to walk along the
wires, and attempted to shove away a
ladder which the attendants had placed
against them. Ultimately, by means of
a rope, the ladder was secured to the
wires, and two attendants then got UP
and secured him. He was then brought

and three wagons, his property, to re-
main on the side of the road near the

cradle time. Francis j. Anderson, So
licitor, who defended, submitted as an
eXtenuating circumstance that the de-
PENDANT was Jew, and therefore did
not work his engine on the Jewish Sab
bath, which began at 4 o'clock p. m. on
Friday, and lasted till the same time
on Saturday. This accounted for the
engine being allowed to remain stand
