S. w. Eastman May Claim Them
From His Divorced Wife.
BY an order made by Judge Lewis
yesterday, Samuel w Eastman, a well
known railroad conductor, was given the
custody of his three minor children, now
in the care of his divorced wife, Emma
L. Eastman.
The order was given on application for
a modification of the order contained in
the decree of divorce, by which Mr..
Eastman relinquished the control of his
three children $1,O70 in cash and $40 a
month for the support Of the children
until they became of age.
These requirements were complied
with, but Mrs. Eastman no sooner found
herself free than she married Edwar
Furnell, who assisted in spending the
money and having a good time
The father heard that the children
were being neglected and promptly made
preparations to get hold Of them. Fur
nell's mother, Mrs. Nafie, was present
and testified that her son was not fit
person to have custody of the children.
1t was also shown that he drank.
In defiance of the courts order it was
shown that Mrs Eastman had taken the
children to Chicago, beyond the courts
jurdisction, and a contempt order was
issued

OCCUPANTS OF THE OLD POsTOF-

Heat for the next month will be an I'M

ing in view of the repairs which it has
been found necessary to make to the pres
ent heating plant before it can be again
used.
Some months ago one of the boilers in
the basement was condemned and had to
be removed. Its removal brought to light
the fact that the fire walls were in a
dangerous condition and now these have
to be replaced before the fires can be
again lighted.
A heating inspector from the depart
ment at Washington was in the city

portable boiler was placed in the alley

Ing, Judge Otis denied the motion of
the PLAINTIFF in the divorce case of Violet
K. Kittson VS.. Alfred S. Kittson, to
strike out that portion of the answer
in which the plaintiffs character as a
mother and wife is attacked.
The answer was filed by the defend
ants guardian, E. S. Durment, and the
argument advanced by J. w. Willis, at
torney, for the plaintiff, was that the
guardian simply attended to the estate
and not the domestic troubles of tA-ose
under his care
The court could not see it in that light,
as a child of tender years was involved
and it's proper custody called for the
strictest inquiry into the conduct Of
those to whom it might be consigned.
The motion was therefore denied.

TWO ORATORS IN CONTRAST.
Bryan and Cochran Compared by the
Local Democracy.


The geneal impression formed in St
Paul of the speech Of Bourke Cochran
Friday night is that it was the master
piece Of campaign speeches delivered any
where in this part of the state since
the camaign opened. Republicans as well
as Democrats acknowledged the fact
Around Republican headquarters yester-
day the speech Of the New Yorker was
spoken of as a wonderful array of sound
argument delivered in a most eloquent
manner. Comparisons between the ad-
dresses of Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Cochran are
frequently being made. While most every
body who heard the two speeches agree
that Cochran surpassed Bryan in point
of oratory and that in many ways eclips-
ed his argumentative exhibitions. it is
the opinion of most all the conservatives
that the plain, simple manner of speech
which Mr.. Bryan employed here, as he is
doing by force of necessity on his en-
tire tour, is quite as effective with the
average citizen and in that respect s
speeches are considered fully as good as
any others that are being delivered this
campaign. The frequency of his speeches
renders 1t necessary for Mr.. Bryan to
reduce his argument to the merest facts
and condense them into the SIMPLEST
and most direct expressions. He cannot
afford to take up time with oratorical
dresses in the past.
One of the most prominent men of the
legal fraternity in Minnesota Republi-
can by politics, was asked in Duluth. iusr
after the recent speech of Mr.. BRYAN
what he thought Of t. He replied thta in
his Judgment it was the greatest poIiti-
cal speech he had ever listened to. This
statement he made to his friend, John
D. Brady, surveyor general of logs and
lumber at the Zenith City The gentle
man is one Of the ablest jurists in the
state and many of the states best laws
are largely the fruit of his intellect.
Mr. Brady who was in the city yes
terday, having come down the night pre-
vious to hear Mr.. Cochran, has taken the
pains to ascertain the impression made
at Duluth by Mr.. Bryan and he finds

Cards on the Cars.

Cards are not played as much on
the cars rs they used to be-" said the
commercial traveller. "a few years
ago it was n common sight to see three
or four games, whist, euchre, poker or
seven up, going on in Il car, and Wher-
ever four or five drummers were gath
cred together there was sure to be a
lively game Of draw in progress. Sub
urban trains were turned into whist
clubs, and morning and night the COM
muters were engaged in n rubber.
But all this has been changed. Now
adays It IS the hardest thing In the
world to get up game Of any kind In
train. Ask stranger If he would like
to take hand at whist or euchre, and
he will freeze you with Il suspicious
look. And what is worse, he Is entire
ly justified in his suspicious.
"In the last ten years the railroads of
this country have been the harvest for
gamblers, bunko men and short card
experts. They have worked the field TO

He Saved the bridge.

"At Harpers Ferry on one occasion
the flood in the Potomac was so great
that, 1t threatened the destruction Of
the costly railroad bridge, which was
seen to shake in It's unsteadlness," said
former Governor Thomas G. Jones
when everybody present was looking
each moment to see the bridge 20
down, President John w. Garrett of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad arrlv-
ed upon the scene. Approaching the
necessity of instant action, he gave an
abrupt order for Il loaded train Of
freight cars standing on side track to
be run with the locomotive on to the
bridge and kept there.
"'But, Mr. Garrett, that Is q train
load Of silk said the local superintend-
ent.
81 don't care; run out the cars!
commanded the great master Of rail-
roads. 1T would be easier to pay for
the silk than to build q new bridge
1.-The silk train was run on to the
bridge and the structure was saved.
The silk was being sent by rail across
the continent from San Francisco, at
which port it had been received from
China and Japan. Garrett was great
man, one Of the greatest of those who
have aided in the material development
of America. In emergencies he was
very resourceful, as was demonstrated
in perhaps u small way by the Har-
pers Ferry incident" - Birmingham

Magnetic CLAW.

Most kinds of clay contain a consid-
cradle proportion Of iron. The red col
or Of bricks, for example, is due to the
presence of oxides Of iron. Whenever
an object nodded Of clay is baked at
the temperature Of the potter's furnace
in the presence of a magnetic field or
influence, the otherwise homogeneous
clay shows when cooled traces Of mag
netism In definite direction. This In
herent magnetism Is sufficient to show
the direction and give an idea as to the
intensity of the magnetiZing force that
acted while the clay was in the fur
mace.
This peculiar property has been used
to solve some questions Of great inter-
est to scientific people in general. An
accurate knowledge of the direction Of
the earth's magnetic force In early his
torical times has been deduced by sew
eral Italian physicists from study Of
the traces of magnetism shown by Etru-
rian vases and other objects Of clay
exhumed from old tombs. The con-
clusion reached is that the direction Of
the earth's magnetic field has varied
very greatly in the 5000 or G,0OO years
represented by the age of the objects
examined.

Why So Many Young Men Fail

zone trouble with many young men
who start out in business IS they try to
do too many things at once" says Het-
ty Green. The result is that they
don't know as much as they ought to
about any one thing, and they natural
Iy fail. The trouble with young men
who work on salaries IS that they're
always afraid Of doing more than
they're paid for. They don't enter into
their work with the right spirit. To
get on and be appreciated n young man
must do more than he's paid to do.
When he does something that his en-
ployer has not thought Of, he shows
that he IS valuable. Men are always
willing to pay good salaries to people
who will think of things for them.
The man who only carries out the
thoughts and ideas Of another Is moth
Ing more than a mere tool. Men who
can be relied upon are always in de-
mand. The scarcest thing in the world
today is a thoroughly reliable man"
