An Epoch Marking Document.

The proclamation to the people Of
that portion of the province of Santa
go surrendered by Gen. Toral by the
president of the United States, is fitly
characterized as marking an epoch in
American history" It is not that it's
matter is new, for its substance was
embraced in the proclamation under
which California was taken possession
of at the outbreak of the Mexican war.
and its Foley is the general one pur-
sued by governments conquering ter
ritories. Americans will read it to see,
first, the indications that the policy de-
clared by congress and approved by the
president in the resolutions that made
official the state of war between this
country and Spain is being pursued
upon the first occupation of Cuba, and
secondly, the signs of what the actual
relations of this country to Cuba will
be SO far as this administration can
sEepe them.
On April 25 congress adopted a joint
resolution whose title proclaimed it to
be "a joint resolution for the recogni-
ton o. the independence of the people
of Cuba, and the first division Of the
resolutions recited that "The people of
the island Of Cuba are and of right
ought to be free and independent.

Spanish authority from any portion of
the island, sufficient in extent to enabJ.

Things occur on the route traversed by
these cars that would, if put under one COW
er, make the spiciest of novels. Tragedies,
comedies and melodramas could be plotted out
here where other places would prove of no
value. And SO it was yesterday morning
when an incident. or comedy. rather caused
much sport for the writer and his fellow pas
sengers.
When the car left the loop at Como park
on its journey toward Minneapolis, well
dressed young man entered the car and
seated himself beside a young girl. Now of
course, there was nothing about this act to
bring forth criticism. as 1t happened to be the
only vacant seat in the at the time But
the incident that followed was the climax of
the trip. The young man had no further
than seated himself before he began to act
smart. He tried his best to get the young
lady to look at him, but of no ayil She was
as cold a Boston girl an August day.
After carrying on in a foolish manner,
too silly to mention, he decided to address
her.
Pardon me- he said in the smooth man
ner of thoroughbred, but haven't we met
before?'
"Sir!" exclaimed the young lady in an in
dignant manner
Il asked" continued the young man, "if
we hadn't met before"
NO" said the young lady, with slight
shrug of the shoulders. 81 think not
Are you sure?" asked the young man.

manner, quite sure"

it at the time she replied, casting frozen
glance at the conductor that stopped his

This was too much for her. She straighten-

bluff and then suddenly bethought herself
and. cooling down, said 'Oh. yes; have

from his fright. ''of course you have

ing ''how stupid Of me. Let me see-oh
yes, you are the elevator boy in papa's OF,

And the young man was so near paraIyzed
that 1t took him several minutes to recover
his senses. but it is needless to add that
after he did he retired to the back plat
form. where he bit the trolley rope until
he reached the edge of the city. where he

There is a singular pertinacity in the
persistence of writer's, compositors and
proofreaders to make a Portuguese pos

name the Portuguese spelling. If the
purpose is to eliminate the Spanish,
why substitute the Portuguese? Why

During the rendering of one of the favorite
waitzes two young ladies wended their way
through the crowd and stopped in front
OF the tiers of seats. They kept their eyes
closely fixed on the chairs and their occupants
duly wishing that at least one would become
vacated.
They stood first on one foot and then the
other. and occasional sigh tod of their
sufferings.
After standing there for some little tina
they were greeted by a young gentleman
friend of theirs
Why good evening, girls" spoke the
young gentleman, as he raised his hat in a
fashion due only to ST. Paul.
Hello. Chariie!" came the answer from the
girls, as they shook hands with him.
Very close" suggested Charlie he
reached back to see whether or net his collar
had melted and run down his back.
'C!ose!" exclaimed one of the girls, with
a Disguised air, why that doesn't half ex-
press 1t. 1 think the humidity is something
frightful."
And this pavilion isn't the coolest pace
on earth.' suggested her friend, as she
brushed her hair back from her ears.
mo, indeed remarked the young man, sit
is much cooler up on the hill near the bear
den.'
Bear den!'' exclaimed the two girls to-
gether. Where are the bears?"
why haven't you seen the bears?" asked
the young man. apparently astonished.
why nor exclaimed the young ladies to-
gether.
Then you mean to say that you have lived
here all your life, visited the park on numer-
GUS occasions, and yet have never seen those
huge white bears UP on the hill?"
But it was useless for him to continue his
conversation. The conspiracy was successful
ly carried out and the young perpetrators had
their choice of seats.

The miners are reticent about the
amounts they brought. The reason for
the observation OF such secrecy lies,
in a desire to avoid the payment of the
10 per cent royalty exacted by the
Canadian government. Not in every
case have the miners paid royalties on
the full amounts taken out of their
mines, and many of them have SNUG
gled out quantities to avoid it,
