A. MIG. MCDONALD INJURED
A Duluth Man, Well Known In
Little. Falls, Wounded In
the Arm.

Sundays Duluth News Tribune
contains an account of the serious
injury OF A. MEG. Mcdonald, who is
quite we'll know in this city. Several
years ago he married Miss Mary
Brown, of this place, and has made
frequent visits to relatives in this city.
Sundays News-Tribune said:
A. MEG. Mcdonald, bookkeeper for
Butler Bros & Ryan, and who is we'll
know in fraternal insurance circles,
was very seriously hurt, and, indeed,
narrowly escaped death, at the foot
of Lake avenue yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. Mcdonald was walking among
the men working for Bntler Bros. &
RYAN on the new canal pier. They
were hewing timbers, and he was
getting their time. The men paused
in their work as Mr.. Mcdonald ap-
preached them, gave him their time,
and went to work again. He was
just leaving one of the men as the
man brought his ak down. 1t
caught Mr.. Mcdonald on his right
arm, near the shoulder, and laid his
arm open, exposing ligaments almost
to the elbow. Had he been standing
six inches closer to the man, the ak
would undoubtedly have struck
into his neck.
Mondays News-Tribune says: A.
Meg. Mcdonald, who was badly
hurt Saturday by having his arm
cut with an ak at the foot of Lake
avenue, was much better yesterday.
He has been removed from St. Luke q
hospital to his home, and it is not
now believed that he will lose his
arm.

FOR THE WEEK ENDING JUNE 70, 1873.

FOR THE WEEK ENDING JUNE rs, 1899.
There were light rains general on
one day, and light and widely scat
tered showers occurred on other
DAYS. The week has been very favor
able for the growth of all crops, and
they have responded swell, except
where the high water drowned them
outin previous weeks. The loss due to
floods, however, has been rather
over estimated, but still the loss in
Wabasha and Olmsted counties was
considerable. Wheat, oats and bar
lev are luxurious, and there are spots
in many fields where they are lodged.
Spring wheat may be a little late in
the Red river valley; in many places
south of the central counties, it is
beginning to head. Barley is head
ing very we'll. Oats are beginning
to head in southern counties. Rye
is turning color and will be ready to
cut early in July. Rnst is reported
in a. mild form at widely scattered
points. The recent warm weather
caused flax to turn yellow and look
spotted, bat it is now improving;
early flax is in bloom in Dakota
county. The soil is in excellent con-
dition, and the cultivation of corn
and potatoes is going on rapidly.
Corn has been backward and not
very vigorous, but better weather is
causing q rapid Improvement. In
most of the state the hay crop will
he good. Clover and timothy are
ready to cut as soon as the weather
is dry enough. In parts OF the state
the clover is very poor. In eastern
counties as far north sas Hennepin
the Strawberries have reached and
passed the stage OF greatest abund
ance; in southwestern counties they
are ripening. Raspberries promise
well. Sugar beets and celery on thu
river bottoms have been seriously in
jured.

WI 4 iSSfta
president of the chamber, and he oe-
cupies the chair with dignity and au-
thority. AS statesmen go, he is still
very young man. but what with tai
ent, but, still more, with love of
truth, frankness, loyalty and courage,
he has gained the esteem and respect
not only of his friends, but also of his
adversaries.
When the young deputy mounts the
tribune to make a speech the whole
house is ready to listen attentively to
what he has to say, for every deputy
feels that it is not party spirit, 1t is
not self-aggrandizemen OF bombast
which prompts him; it is love of coun-
try.
You know that Paul Deschauel
comes from good republican stock, His
father, Emil Deschanel, was a noted
republican and opposed the govern
ment during the long years Of the sec
ond empire. He failed to be elected
deputy, and took chair in the Col
lege de France, and for several years
taught modern literature. He has writ
ten several remarkable books. and
among them one on Benjamin Frank
lin. His books on the French classics
have become text books in numerous
schools. He is still living, and you
may imagine how proud he is of his
son.
Paul Deschanel was born In Brus-
sells In 1856. After having graduated
at college and studied law for several
years he became the secretary of Jules
Simon when minister of the interior
He afterward became under prefect at
Dreux. He was elected deputy from
the department OF Eure ct Loir in 1885.
When he made his maiden speech
In 1885, In the chamber, against over
taxing cereals. he at once showed that
he was born an orator, and his speech
was noticed for its elegance and cor
rectness of language. Since then manv
are the times he has mounted the
tribune to eloquently plead for good
causes.
In the beginning of his career his
associates in the chamber ridIcu1ed
him for playing the society man, for
dressing too welh they called him the
Beau Brummel OF the palace. They
reproached him, also, for putting too
much rhetoric in his speeches, the SEN
fences were over-studied, too well
rounded Some one said that his
speeches sounded as If he had them
corrected by professor OF languages.
Paul Deschanel is perhaps the man
whose ideas OF party spirit are the |
broadcast and the most patriotic. After
his hrst election he took his seat with |
