The newspapers of the twin cities gen
orally are very much IN favor of the set
ting aside of large tract of land in the
northern part of the state as national
park. One of their most frequently
used arguments is that by SO doing the
proceeds of the land which lie in the
Cass Lake Indian reservation would be
"saved to the Indians" If the United
States government is so extremely de-
sirous of helping out the Indians we
would suggest that the reservation be
purchased and opened to settlement.
The interior department. has long ago
admitted its inability or desire to pre-
serve the timber from the rayages of
the diligent pine land robber and would
probably be in no better shape if the
tract was made into a so-called park.

Invention has to be taxed in order
to provide something entirely new for
wedding festivities, if one really de.
sires to be original; but that there
are minds adapted to that task, may
be guessed from the following real
occurrence A couple in one of the
New England states had recently an
ambition to begin their married life
under decorative circumstances. This
ordinary devices were too old. So, in
stead of a floral bell, there was to be
seen above the happy pair the bor-
rowed legend: "United we stand"
The quotation has not yet been fin
ished. Still later comes another anec-
dote, equally true, which seems to
embody the modern spirit. Two hap
Ply young persons, named, perhaps,
Harriet Corson and John Eames, stood
up to be married. Above her head
was an elaborate floral device, with
her name in small electric lights.
Above the bridegroom appeared a
similar decoration, save that it was
his name that sparkled there. All
through the ceremony the lights
burned brilliantly, but at the words

"Harriet Corson" was turned off,

Another hero and veteran of the
Southern Confederacy has surrendered
to the enemy that all must meet. After
a steady decline for several years, he
passed quietly away as the sun was set

the members of Robert A. Smith Camp,
of which he was the beloved COM

called at his residence, when Gen. Low

veyed to him the respect and love of his

The claim of Gen. Lew Wallace that
he is better acquainted with the sui

TO be borne out by the estimate

never broke a promise, a scholar and

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

hatcher Notes.
II was this writer's privilege to spend
Sabbath, April 90, in Natchez. Being
of the "blue stocking" faith, we visited
| the Presbyterian Sabbath school. which
had an attendance that morning of 160.
| Among the members of the Bible class
was our former State superintendent
| of education, Hon. j. r. Preston, pres
ident of Stanton college. He is also
an active ruling elder in the church.
| Superintendent Harper believes very
much in the "Shorter Catechism." Its
questions and form IN import
ant feature of the exercises.
1t was communion day, and the
Lords supper vas observed in a most
solemn and impressive manner The
pastor, Rev. DIR. Chism, did not preach
a sermon, but commented briefly on
the chapter read. The venerable pa
triarch, Rev. DIR. j. B. Stratton, pro-
nounced the benediction. He is in his
s5th year and is very feeble. He was
pastor of that church for fifty years,
and many that he baptized in infancy
are grandfathers in the congrega-
ton. There were several additions to
the membership, and as their names
were called they stood up and were
commended by the pastor to the con.
%gregation.
There was to have been q union
service at the Methodist church at
night, but a heavy downpour of rain
prevented.
In the afternoon we visited the
Protestant Orphan Asylum, and re-
ceived a cordial greeting from the good
matron, and her forty happy children.
On the Thursday previous the asylum
celebrated its s5th anniversary. Dur
ing the more than four-score years of
Its history the asylum has done a great
work in receiving and training orphan
children for honorable and useful lives.
Its treasury has often been empty and
its larder without a meal, but it has
never closed its doors, and, it is hoped,
never will. Since the establishment of
the Baptist orphanage at Jackson, the
Methodist at Water Valley, and the
Presbyterian at Columbus, the one at
Natchez has been cue off from most Of
the support it received from those de-
nominations, and this fact has inclined
others to give to it more literally. The
fraternal orders have been specially
generous.
Natchez appears to be prospecting. A
large number of elegant homes had
been erected since our previous visit.
An up-to-date public school building
will soon take the place of old "Natchez
Institute" A branch road to Wood
vile, thirty miles, is among the early
probabilities.
On the train coming out from Natchez
on Monday was Mr.. Josiah Winchester
and family, returning to Denver. Mr..
Winchester is a son of Judge Winches-
ter, a noted attorney of his day. About
twenty years ago he went to Colorado,
and after a varied and rough experience
he and others leased a Cripple Creek
gold mine, in which a rich vein was
soon found, and Lucky 10" is now
ranked a millionaire. But his good
fortune has evidently not turned his
head"
