TEN MILLION DOLLARs FOR A
SERVANT

The death has occurred in Vienna of
Ferdinand Linke, the king of Austrian
usurers, and a conspicuous figure in
Viennese life.
Linke started a money lending business
in 1860 with a capital of SO, and by the
charged, as well as the callousness with
which he extracted his pound of flesh
from his victime, he soon amassed a
large fortune, and died worth over g.
900 900.
Linke's methods frequently exceeded
the limits of the law, and he was SEN
fenced to several terms of imprisonment,
years. His passion for usury, however,
remained uncooled, and on his release
from prison he always returned to his
work with renewed zeal. In his private
life the usurer was eccentric in the ex-
treme. He kept one man over so years
old to manage the household affairs, and
lived as If he were in need of the neces-
windows, and had a body guard of fierce
bloodhoundS.
After his death several hundred thou
sand pounds in banknotes and gold were
found hidden under the floor. in carefully
concealed holes in the wall. and other GU
rious places.
His daughter is the sole heiress to the
usurer's immense fortune. She has lived
in perfect ignorance of her fathers
wealth and has earned her living as a do
nestle servant. When she inherited her
fortune of $40 900 900 she was maid-of-all-

with an annual wage of $40.

Well Oiled Machine.

The resolutions endorsing or re-

for the United States Senate, that
show up in county conventions, have
all the marks of being prepared and
sent out from a central bureau. It
looks like a we'll oiled machine,
When ever one of these compliment
tary resolutions appears in conven-
ton: whether adopted or not, and
whether expressing the voice. of the
delegates or not, the news is scattered
far and wide. From the newspaper
reports it would seem that Congress-
man johnson is the only man in the
state for whom there is any prefer
ence for United States senator, and
every one knows 1T is not true. But
Mr.. johnson is making his own fight
in his own way, and will probably
have the apparent aid of many who
are waiting to see what real strength
his campaign develops after the leg
isiature has been chosen.-James-

Dalrymple's idea.

Oliver Dalrymple, the bonanza
farmer, states that though our scien-
fists have calculated that there was
greater deficiency short time ago in
the visible and the invisible supply
of wheat than has been known for 25
years and that the crop for '98 is a
trihe over the average, there is big
hole to dump it in. The price Of
wheat he predicts, will remain about
the same for a time and will then
gradually rise to between 70 and 80
cents. Better times have caused an
increase in the wheat eating popu-
lation of the world, there are more
mouths to fill and he believes prices
will gradually stiffen.--Grand Forks

How Law is Enforcement.

HOW LAW EllOE\SlllCnls
The mayor of st. Paul has issued
imperative orders to his police force
that the ordinance requiring saloons
to close at midnight must be enforced.
Aside from the question as to how
rigidly or successfully or continuously
this order of the mayor will be obeyed,
there is evidently an unmistakable
intimation here that heretofore and up
to the time of issuing the order, the
midnight-closing ordinance has been
disregarded and has not been en-.
forced. Conditions in St. Paul are
not materially different from eondi-
tions in other Minnesota towns and
conditions in Minnesota are not mat
erially different from conditions in
other license states. And the impair
tial observer of conditions in license
states and in the prohibition state OF
North Dakota will not question the
proposition that the prohibition law
in North Dakota is as generally and
as effectively enforced as are license
lawsi in Minnesota or any other license
state.-Fargo Argus.
