FRENCH CAGOTs.
Class of People Who Were Detested
by Their NeighbOrs.

Cofnhill Magazine.
The first historical mention of the Ca
gots dat IS from about the eleventh CEN
fury Their origin is very uncertain,
as several authors have pet theories on
the subject, which all amount in the end
to very much the same thing-pure sur
mise. What was Cagot? Was he a for
eigner;' was he an atheist? Nothing of
the kind He was a Frenchman, good
Catholic, exactly as others are. What
was the matter with him, then? He was
a Cagot One is reminded Of the old
rhyme of DR.. Fell There was dislike,
but no reason. When one knows no real
reason the obvious course is to invent
one, or several, and this is what the pure
race, as they called themselves, did.
First and foremost, they said the Cagots
were lepers-that they descended, in
fact, from Gehazi, and that therefore
they were an accursed race. 1t was bad
enough to be sleper, even without the
outward and visible signs, but there was
great deal more to be said against the
Cagots. Their breath was detestabie
and poisonous; they had no lobe to their
ears; they were born with tails, which
their cunning mothers instantly pinched
off, their skin was whittier, their hair
fairer, their eyes bluer than a good
Frenchman's had any right to be. They
were sorcerers and warlocks; they had
the evil eye; the unnatural heat of their

ALL SALARIES RAISED.
New Store, minneapolis, Gives All
Employees an Increase.

New Store, Minneapolis, Gives All
Employees an Increase.
The New Store, Minneapolis, wound up
its birthday week Saturday night with a
grand finale, and the management is
highly gratifed with the results of it's
one years existence.
It will be remembered that 1t was this
store that originated and put into effect
the closing at ! o'clock Saturday rule,
which allowed the clerks a half day and
a night off.
This was done on the principle that bet
ter work would be done by the employees
If they were given a weekly vacation, and
the result proves that it was more than
a theory.
A notice was given to all the clerks yes
terday to call at the Office of the store,
and when they were there they were in
formed that their salaries were raised.
This included everybody employed in the
store, from bundle boys to heads Of de-
partmentS.
general increase of from 10 to SO 1-3
per cent was made, and cheerful counte-
nances were the rule as the clerks filed
ont of the store last night after their
days work.
The New Store has done a phenomenal
business, and before it had been in quar-
tiers more than six months it had been
found necessary to make large additions
to it's floor space demanded by increasing
business.

It was stated at the time that ar injunc-
ton had been secured. At all events, Mr..
Frame let his horses stand in their stalls
and laid off his men. Saturday the case
was called before Judge Brooks. but
neither side seemed to be in hurry to
push matters and the hearing went oyer
week. 1t also developed that there was
nothing to prevent Mr. Frame from car
rying out his contract with the city.
Last night at o'clock operations were
resumed, an attack being made on the
refuse matter along commission row, and
it is expected the work of cleaning up
the city will soon be completed and pub
lie health protected.

For the Future the Trust VIII Buy
Direct From the Farmers.

MADISON, Wis, Sept. 3.-The Ameri-

leaf tobacco direct from Wisconsin farm
ers. The trust will erect 81 big depot in

Mr.. Strausse says the Wisconsin tobac-
CO acreage this year shows an increase of
1000 acres over last year, and the quality

DR.. Porter, the health officer of the
state, has reported his arrival in Key
West Such information as has been
received by DR.. Wyman, the surgeon
general, shows that there are a number
of cases of fever there, but mild in type.
DR.. Wyman today received from Key
West a list of persons who have left
that city recently, together with the
date and manner of their departure and
their destination. DR.. Wyman says
that, while there is no occasion for alarm
concerning these people, ordinary pre-

kept under observation for ten days, and
If fever Of any kind should ensue they
should be isolated until its nature Is
positively determined.
The war department authorities hope
to be able to get the troops away from
Key West by Tuesday. Because of the

them through the state Of Florida 1t
