It is very unwise to tempt the appe-
tite of one who is indisposed. The ces-
sation of appetite, especially at this sea-
son, is a warning Of nature that the
system is in such state that food can
not be easily digested, and little judi
eious fasting may be of great benefit.

Won Her Way In Masculine Attire.

Mrs. Catherine Coombes for the past
43 years has dressed and worked as
man, and her career will surely take
amples of those of the sex who have
served in the army and navy without
their secret becoming known.
An early marriage proving disas-
trously unhappy one, Mrs. Coombes
formulated plan for eluding her hus-
band and supporting herself. There
were not the Openings for women"
five and forty years ago that there are
today, and, to put it in her own words,
she saw that the choice lay between
mans clothes and labor or restitution.
After donning masculine toys she start
ed as learner in the house painting
trade at shillings a week. Her aptitude
soon showed itself, and in three weeks
this modest remuneration was raised
until in a few months she was able to
earn "a living wage" So rapidly did
she rise that she soon was able to live
in comfort and had a nice little house
in Camden terrace, near the Victoria
docks. Two people knew her secret, one
being her m,other and the other niece.
who for two and twenty years kept
house for her and was believed by all the
neighbors to lie Charley Wilson 8 wife. !"
Perhaps the most remarkable fact of
this woman's business capabilities was
her employment for over ID years by
the Peninsular and Oriental company.
It is with considerable pride that she
mentions that, with the exception of
the last two or three ships built, there
Is not vessel in that stately fleet
which cannot show her handiwork. She
had a large share in the redecoration Of
the saloon of the Rome after the big al
terations that were made in her hull
for her improvement, and the orna-
mentation of the music saloons of the
Victoria, the Oceana and the Arcadia,
which are especially elaborate and rich,
was almost entirely carried out by her
in enameling. -London Times-

How to Cure Hams.
When the hog is killed, the hams are
buried in salt. After laying in salt for
five weeks they are taken out, sponged
off with boiling water and placed in a
cage, the bottom and top Of which are

while the four sides consist only of
closely woven wire netting. The hams
are cured by the smoke passing through

LYING BH INFERENCE.

FARMINGTON. MINI. - Albert Schaller
was unanimously renonina ted by the
county Democratic convention for the state
senate. Ignatius Donncly nominated
for the house yesterday hy,-the~- Ropulists
and failed to get Il vote OF Democratic in
dOrsement. J. r. Stevenson, of South St
Paul. and John Pennington, of Waterford
being unanimously selected for the house
This breaks the Schaller-Donnellyu and
Staples trio, and precludes all chance Of
Donnelly for election to the house. The
delegates objected to seeing a vice presi-
Dental candidate descending to sucn a
petty office. The convention was harmon
ous and was addressed by Mr.. Cain. of the
state central committee. and c. G. Isinds
OF Shakopee.
This report is intended to lead to the
inference that Mr.. Donnelly was present
at the Pennington Democratic conven-
ton, seeking their Endorsement for the
house. There is not word of truth in
any such insinuation Mr.. Donnelly was
in this city attending to his editorial du-
ties at that time, and never went near
the convention. He is the Peoples party
candidate for the house. and intends to
devote the last ten days Of the campaign
to- a big canvass Of the county, in which
he will show why the taxes Of the people
have doubled in the last few years.

A TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT.

There has arisen some misconception,
not to say quarrel, between a few of the
mid-road Populists about the failure OF
the whole of the delegation of 46 at Gin
cinnati to support us for president. There
were Sc of the delegates whose votes were
recorded in our favor. and 10 that We're
recorded in favor of Mr.. Wharton Bar
ker. We were not candidate for the
place; We asked no man to support us for
it; we felt we had not the money to
make a national campaign. We do not
know who voted for us, or who voted
against us. The 10 adverse votes were
mostly proxies.
When Mr.. Barker was nominated we
rose at once and moved that his nomina-
ton be made unanimous. Our friends
then rushed at us and asked us to accept
the nomination for the vice presidency.
Our own preference was for Hon. Thomas
E. Watson; we thought the North and
South should both be represented on the
ticket. But Mr.. Watson's friends said
he was not a candidate. We were then
in this dilemma-if we refused the nomi-
nation for vice-president, which the con-
vention evidently desired to tender us,
it would have been charged that We were
angry over Mr.. Bankers nomination, and
were "sulking in our tent" We therefore
accepted; but we stated to the conven-
ton that we would not take the nomina-
ton, of so small convention, unless it
was referred to vote of the Peoples
party, under our referendum system. And
we further expressed willingness to re-
sign the nomination whenever we could
promote the welfare of the Peoples party
by doing so.
Since our return home there has been
some wrangling and disputation over the
matter, and the old-party papers have
been taking it up and trying to breed
dissension in the ranks of the midroad
ers, with charges and counter-charges.
We hope this will all end. If any man
voted against us he had a perfect right
to do so. We are not boss nor a
despot.
Let us all join hands and move for
ward together in perfect harmony. We
have great battle on our hands, and
there should he no differences between
us. The welfare Of the nation is at
stake. /. d.

The Democratic state convention Of New
4Ianpshfa voted down Il resolution irdors-
ing the Chicago platform. One by one the
roses fall.-An Exchange
Even in Minnesota the Democratic
party this year drops silver and pro-
poses to make the campaign Cn state is
sues. Since Bryans campaign in 30 five
Southern states have voted down bills
prohibiting gold contracts. Nearly every
Democratic mayor in the nation elected
since 96 has been gold bug The
Democratic party in sections where Pop
ulists are few has dropped Bryan ard
openly declared for F'itzhugh Lee or Har-
rison in 1900. The Minneapolis Tines
and all Democratic dailies openly Ge-
clare the gold Denis. are coming back.
Democrats. through the influence OF the
gold wing of the party. are everywhere
turning the fusion Populists down.
Stearns county Democrats in this state
have just ignored the Populists in the
makeup of county ticket. In Mime
apolis, Goldbug P. B. Winston has taken
the management of Democratic affairs,
and Cation. Stacy and ali the other fusion
lists are turned down. We are not toll
ing the bell because it is any of our flu
neral. On the contrary. we are glad to
see these fusiOnists get their hides gored.
1t will teach them to stay at home, and
to not run after false gods. We mention
these things because We believe it the
duty of every honest Populist to strike
his first blow where it will do most to
kill fusion. 1t is better to have a Wall
street government under Mckinley. with
an honest label, plutocracy, upon it, than
to have the same thing labeled Organism.
In the one case We know exactly what
we have to fight and where it is located
LII the other case we have to submit and
suffer because we cannot repudiate the
candidate whom we have voted for.
So in state matters; If we must have a
Republican administration from COVER
nor down to dog-eatcher, it is better to
have it plainly labeled Republican thar
to have it under blanket labeled John
Lind. We believe there should be a uni
Eersal revolt against any man who will
refuse to define his position on economic
questions; it is the old trick of good lord
and good devil. 1t should mean political
death to any man who will allow his
friends to put his name into a political
grabbing.
