oh, man is a riddle. as oft has been
said
In vain you may study his face.
His manner Of talking; the pose OF his
head,
His characteristics to trace.
You've gotten him classified pat In your
mind
He's kindly. sardonic, or rough.
And, when you get closer acquainted,
you find
That he's merely been making a bluff.
The bland party leader, the speaker, the
sage,
So frequently dwindle in turn
That we're forced TO look back into his
tory's page.
When for heroes TO worship we yearn:
Where only the doting biographer's

With no one 10 doubt or rebuff:
Where there's no one remaining TO

SANTIAGO SURRENDERED

The reported surrender Of
Santiago has been confirmed.
With the city goes the whole
province or eastern end of Cuba.
One Of the conditions is that the
Spanish army shall be trans
ported to Spain after delivering
up their arms.
Yesterday afternoons dis
patches announced the uncondi-
tional surrender of Santiago
If the dispatch is confirmed
there is great cause for rejoicing
for though the American forces
have the city surrounded the
Spaniards are undoubtedly ia
position to offer stubborn re
sistance and cause heavy losses
to the attacking force. When the
city is taken 1T ought to bring
the war to q close, if the Span
ish officials have a grain of sens'
or an iota Of humanity in theil

The Milwaukee.

The city of Milwaukee is eel
ebrated the world over for its
product of lager beer, but it has
a manufactory that 10 the farm
ers of the northwest is of far
more Importance and which Is
securing the city a more univer-
sal fame. We refer to the Mil
waukee harvesting machines,
which is being introduced in this
country by Lindquist & John
son. In the fields of Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Iowa, these ma
chimes have already proved their
many points of superiority, and
are acknowledged favoriteS with
farmers who have tested them
by years of field work, and found
them the ne plus ultra of harvest
ing implements. One of the
MilWaukeeS was taken out to II.
j. Hicks farm east of town We'd
nesday and worked in a field Of
rye, and although the grain was
in poor condition for cutting,
being badly lodged, the machine
made most satisfactory show
ing, and proved its ability TO do
good work under unfavorable
conditions. Some of the nOtica
bic features of the Milwaukee
are the strength Of the frame
work and solidity of the machine
while at work, the convenience
and easy handling of all levers,
being far superior to all other
machines in these respects. If
you want the best harvester now
on the market come and exam
inc this machine at Lindquist
& Johnson $.
