LIVE STOCK CONVENTION.

Arrangements have been made for
the American Livestock Feeders and
Breeders convention to meet at the
rooms of the State Capitol in St. Paul,
on January 1lth and 18th, 1898.
Prominent feeders and breeders of
years of experience throughout all
parts of the United States and Canada,
will be present, and will give the re-
suits of their practical experiences in
feeding, breeding and marketing all
classes of live stock, which will be of
the utmost value to every farmer en-
gagged in stock raising, no matter on
how small scale, in Minnesota and
the Dakotas. There will be six ses-
sions, three sessions each on January
11th and 18th. Each session will be
devoted to the discussion of some one
of the three principal objects for
which the meeting is called.
Breeding of the proper class of
stock, whether for meat or the dairy,
is of vital Importance, while the kinds
of feed and manner of feeding are no
less SO. The rapid increase in the
dairy interests will also receive atten-
tion from persons experienced in
dairying. The various live stock as
sociations of the Northwest will be
asked to name delegates, and in addi-
ton, every farmer and stock raiser, no
matter On how small a scale, is cor
daily invited by the Council of
Arrangements to be present, and will
be received and registered as a dele
gate upon giving their names and ad-
dress to the secretary of the conyen-
ton, upon their arrival at St. Paul.
1t is urged upon every person inter-
ested in the live stock industry to be
present.
Great care should be exercised by
everyone going to the convention to
ask for return certificate from the
agent of their starting point, where
they buy their tickets, in order that
they may rec.ive the benefit of the re-
duced round Tip rate. This is i'm
portant, and every person in attend
ance should be careful to notify the
agent at the point where they start
from to prepare the return certificates
for their use. In order to obtain the
reduced rate, tickets should be pur-
chased over the Minneapolis e. St.
Louis r. r.
Further information in re,-ard to
the meeting can be obtained by ad-
dressing David R. McGinnis, Secre-
tary of the Council of Arrangements
of the American Live Stock Feeders
and Breeders convention at St. Paul.

Here and there came streggler, but
there we're not 20 votes polled in both
wards after three o'clock.


When the judges announced that
the polls were closed neither side was
very eager to bet, although some of
the Philbrick followers had money to
offer, and some of it was taken by the
Mead supporters. Neither side was
very enthusiastic. When the judges
commenced counting the votes the
second ward ran even on the first ten
votes; the first ward ran Mead ahead,
but after this the votes placed Phil
brick in front, and his, lead continued
to grow, until the finish. The follow
ing is the vote by wards:

ITS a GREAT THING TO KEEP COOL
But Presence of Mind Is Not Indicated
by Absence of Trousers.

Friends OF ex-Congressman William
Il. Morrison Of Illinois are telling an
anecdote Of uncertain date relating to
the chairman of the Interstate COM
merce commission. Col. Morrison be-
lieves in the efficacy of discipline of the
mind. He has spent q great part of his
%eventful career in hotels, and one of his
theories has always been that the mind
van be so trained that the biggest sort
Of a hotel fire is powerlcss to sidetrack
the reasoning faculties on occasions
when presence Of mind is needed. He
impressed his theories very strongly up
on Mrs. Morrison by coniuring up a
variety of critical %exigencies and in
structing her how to act in given cases.
Fate would have it that the colonel
should be put to the test. He and his
wife were aroused from their slumbcrs
one night by an alarm Of fire. The
hotel in which they had their rooms
was aiire, and great confusion and tn-
multi ensued among the guests.
Now is the time to put into practice
what | have always preached to you,
my dear" said the colonel. Don't get
excited. Put or all your Indispensable
apparel and take your time. Don't lose
your head. Just watch me-"
He Gained Mrs. Morrison's anxiety,
handed her the various articles neces.
sary TO her toilet, put on his collar and
cuffs, took his watch from under his
pillow and placed it in his vest pocket,
put on his hat, packed a valise OF valu-
nbles, and, taking his cane, walked
with Mrs. Morrison II of the burning
building into the street.
"Now, my dear" he said when they
were safe. don't you see what a grand
thing it is to keep cool and act with a
deliberate purpose in an emergency
like this? Here you are completely
dressed as though you were going out
for a walk, aud over yondec are several
ladies in complete d%ishabillc."
Just then Mrs. Morrison for the first
time glanced at her husband.
"You are right. William" she said,
"it is a grand thing to keep cool and act
deliberately, but If l had been you I
would have stnid in the room long
enough to put on my trousers - VASE

His Little NIustache.

Every n who has ever made n close
study Of Mr.. Reeds characteristics OF
face has noticed that he nurses a very
small m%ustache. Everything about Mr..
Reed is large but the hirsute adornmeut
Of his upper lip. Yet, according to the
Washington Post. the mar from Maine
is proud of it, like a mother of her
puniest offspring.
Once upon a time the ex-speaker was
taking his family to a neighboring town
and entered the railroad station to pur-
chase tickets. He pulled out a large
bill, pad for his tickets and walked
away without taking his change. He
had been seated in the train but a short
time when the conductor approached
him.
did you leave your change at the
ticket station?p nc asked.
Mr.. Reed suddenly recollecled that he
had.
"rhe ticket agent who sold you the
tickets. said the conductor, described
You as a very large man with a smooth
face-"
"And a mustache," put in Mr.. Reed.
mo" said the conductor. "be didn't
say anything about a mustache. 1
guess he didn't see it."
MIR. Reed thrust his recovered change
into his pocket with a pout.
"Confornd it. he said to q member
who was listening to the story from his
lips the other day, "a man has got to be
us small rs Wilson of Washington to
have anybody notice that he's got q
mustache."

a Yukon I%ainancier.

John Sidney Webb in the Century:
The Napoleon of finance of the re-
gion, and certainly the richest man
there, is a brawny Scotchman known
as Big Aleck' Macdonald. He man
aged to make Il large cleanup on his
:laim-said to be $780, QUO and invested
every dollar of it in other claims
part payment down, the remainder
when the water came in the spring.
Every II about the camp knew OF
M~acdonald's speculations, and all were
wondering whether he would become
a bankrupt or n multimillionaire. The
water did MOI come down early in 1897,
II in some instances the cleanups on
the claims he had bought on specula-
ton came so close to the day Of pay
ment, as the story goes, the gold was
paid over before it was dry" The
death of two brothers to whom he
owed $4,000 on a claim is said to have
been his financial salvation, because
the time of payment of a debt to a de-
cedent estate is extended one year by
law, the gold commissioner acting MS
judge of probate for the time being.
Macdonald is probably an owner of an
Interest in about twenty-odd claims,
bought on his mining knowledge and
his wonderful nerve. He paid enor
nous interest on the money he Dor
rowed, took tremendous risks, and fin
ally o In some instances during
!he winter OF 1s96-07 money was loaned
At 10 per cent for ten DAYS.
