The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1900-10-28

There is no question of Gov. Lind's
strength in Mower county Though
strongly Republican, he WILL if condi-
lions do not fail. poll a very heavy vote
there. He will cut in big on the Repub-
hcan vote in Austin. In Austin, Owa-
tonna and Waseca the old soldier vote
is heavy; but there seems to be little
grounds for believing that Van SAINT Will
get the bulk of it. He has many per-
sonal friends among this class, but they
do not, as a rule, regard him competent
to occupy the governors chair Those
men of sober judgment, who are not d. :
posed to let mere fancy or personal feel
ings blind their eyes to reason, will vote
for Gov. Lind because they know by
experience that he is not only capable
but is better fitted for the place in every
way than any other who has ever
held it.
With such sentiment right here in the
stronghold OF Republicanism against
Van SAINT, it is beginning to look as if
would be showed under by an over
whelming majority, since all Central and
Northern Minnesota are solidly Demo-
cratic when it comes to governor.

I. X. & T. REDUCES RATES IN
INDIAN TERRITORY.

Every since the construction of the
NJ. X. & T. Ry. through the Indian
Territory its local passenger rate be-
tween stations in the Indian Territory
has been on the basis of five cents a
mile. The customary rate of passen
ger fares on railroads, except in sparce
Iy settled country, is three cents a
mile. The population Of the Indian
Territory during the past few years
has grown rapidly; there has been a
large increase in PASSENGER traffic on
this account, and the Katy officials.
recognizing the wants of the people
and the justice of SO doing, have volun-
tarily arranged to reduce the local
passenger rate to basis of three cents
a mile. This reduction will take place
on or about November first. There
will be great rejoicing among the resi-
dents along the line Of the M. K + T

Grave Filling Device.

A device for use in constructing
graves, the invention of Henry D.
Cameron, Of Burlington, Iowa, is de-
signed to fill the grave with earth after
the coffin has been lowered, and to
conceal as far as possible the actual
throwing Of tie dirt upon the coffin,
the most trying termination Of the
grave ceremony to the bereaved
mourners. It consists of a receptacle,
with detachable sides and bottom, and
gate in the latter Sc arranged az to
be capable Of being opened to allow
the contents to fall. The front is a
flexible curtain, extending from the
top to the gate, and designed to pre-
vent the earth within from being SEEN
This receptacle is filled with earth
previous to tie ceremony and carried
to convenient point. When all is
over and the grave is to be filled, the
receptacle is placed over 1t, and the
gates opened. thus gently closing the
last sad scene in a much more fitting
manner than the seemingly cold
hearted return Of the earth with
spade. E,

PEWTER THE RAGE.
Titled Women In France Modelled in This
Material.

If you ever received a bonbonniere,
tray, an ash receiver, a mug or a
plate in pewter for gift, consider
yourself unusually blessed. Pewter is
the rage in Paris, just now, and every
conceivable knick-knack that has ever
been made UP in silver has now been
reproduced in pewter. The most de-
sirable pieces are modelled to show the
feur-de-lis of the Bourbons or the
graceful wreaths and hanging baskets
of flowers trimmed with the double LIZ
of Louis Quinze. A French correspon.
dent writes that in France this rage
for pewter is little short Of madness,
that fashionable women are hanging
the side walls of their dining rooms
with all sorts of rare and beautiful
pewter mugs and with shelves decor
ated with odd pewter plates. There
is also a great tad for figures in pew
ter. modelled from life or the antique,
and at the last Paris Salon pewter
figure, known as "The Creole" created
profound sensation. The figure was
modelled from life, and was charm.
ingly sympathetic bit. Since this fig.

results have been very satisfactory, as
the materials soft and pliable. the soft
grayness adding wonderfully to the
artistic results. To keep pewter clean

"A few years ago." said New Or
leans Bohemian, Il dropped in to see
my friend Lee Zip, who keeps what he
calls sglocely stol,' which is as near
as he can come to grocery store. He
gave me an excellent cigar and pres
emily he said: You likee dly ostel?
What in the name of Confucius is
tdly ostel?' l asked before I realized
that he was talking about dried oys-
tiers. Come! I show he replied; and
opening the lid of big box, he took
out a handful of what looked exactly
like oysters carved in mahogany. They
were hot shriveled and warped, like
other dried foods. but were as plump
and symmetrical as any well-condi-
toned bivalye fresh from the deep
sea. The only difference was that
they were dark brown in color and as
hard as bricks. When Lee Zip tossed
them back into the box they ratified
like handful of marbles. OF course,
I was greatly surprised, and before I
left I took pains to find out all about
them. The oysters are caught and
at the big native shrimper-
les on the other side of the lake. The
process is a trade secret, but as nearly
as I could gather from Lee they are
spread on the tops Of large sheds and
exposed to the sun for several weeks.
What prevents decomposition I do not
know, for they come out of the opera
ton as sweet and brown as nuts. Last
night tried some by special invitation
in the Darkroom of a laundry run by
another Monaghan friend Of mine.
They were brought in in bowl and
formed sort of stew or saute, which
was really delicious. The oysters
themselves were firm but exceedingly
tender, and had a peculiar peppery
flavor, differing from anything else
ever tasted. The Chinaman who did the
cooking told me he had simply boiled
the dried oysters in water and add
ed small strip of pork and season
ing When l tried to probe into the
seasoning feature he suddenly lost
command of English, so there. sus-
pect, the secret resides. am told
that the local colony consumes many
barrels of these oysters every month,
and that large quantities of them are
sold in San Francisco and New YORK.
