Hannaites and Free silver. !.

The Hannaites seem to be much
alarmed lest at some future time silver
may be again coined as money at our

they seem to be entirely willing that

MINNESOTA NEWS.
The Fruit Market,

The two weeks which closed recent
=ly broke all previous records in the
fruit business in Minneapolis. In this
time 100 carloads of fruit were re-
celved, Oregon and Washington fur
nlshed sixty cars, and Michigan, Indi-
ana and Illinois furnished the rest.
Inc shipment from the coast exceed
records for all previous periods of
like length. During fair week thirty
three cars were received from that
source. This is partly accounted for
by the excellence of the fruit, it is being
generally admitted that it is the best
that has ever been received. Much of
this fruit received has been sent to
North and South Dakota.
The extent of the increase in the
fruit trade of Minneapolis is indicated
by the fact that during the two weeks
more fruit has been received than dur
Ing whole season twelve year ago.
Clever swindle.
Two banks at Bricelyn, a small town
near Blue Earth City, were nearly
swindled out of $4,000 on telegrams
sent from st. Paul. The swindle was
worked through kilograms purporting
to be signed by G. 81. Prince, cashier
OF the Merchants National bank Of
st. Paul. The St. Paul bank was no
titled by wire from the Bricelyn
banks, that the draft has been honored
as directed by the telegram. The
officials OF the Merchants bank sent a
message stating that the draft was
forgery, as no telegram had been
sent by them to Bricelyn. The money
was drawn by confederate at Brice-
lyn, but the telegram announcing
that the drafts were no good, resulted
in the money being returned The
details of how the return of the cash
was secured are not known to bank
ing officials in St. Paul.
Large Pearls.
There is considerable excitement at
.Wlnona over a number of valuable
pearls that have been found there
lately.
Mr.. T. ]. Mcnamara recently found
one which sold for $500, but the climax
came, when BENJAMIN F. Dayton.
while looking over a quantity of
CLANS discovered a large pearl of ex-
| ceptional beauty and luster.
The gem is estimated by various au-
| thorities to be worth from 500 to ST.
900. An offer of $500 has been refused
by MIR. Dayton, he wishing to find ex-
actly what the jewel is really worth.
The jewel is the largest that has
been found in that part of the river.
State Timber to be Sold.
Seyenty-fve millions of feet of stand
ing pine, spruce, tamarack and cedar
belonging to the state are to be sold
to the highest bidder at the state capi-
tol, Nov. Il. The greater portion stands
on school lands, though a considerable
amount is in insulated tracts.
The sales will inclade timber in St.
Louis, Lake, Cass, Beltra,ni, Becker,
Itasca, Crow. Wing, Aitkin and Hub
bard counties, and, accepting the con-
servative estimates of values made by
the state auditor, should bring between
$500, 900 and s250,0o0.
The timber cruisers in the employ
of the state have been busy all sum-
mer in the northern tier of counties,
making up a list of timber tracts
owned by the state, with the appraised
valuation OF the growth upon them.

civic affairs, in politics, in social life,
By native talent, by industry, by thrift,

Some years ago an eccentric Eng

called THE Yellow Danger" in which
he told how a great Chinese statesman

tons over the partition of the ancient
empire After England. France, Ger
many, and Russia had exhausted them
selves in war, the Chinese hOrdeS
swept from the east and nearly annihi-

world. The Chinese began by cutting
off cable communications; then they
seized all the foreigners in the coun-

tributed them among the villages for
torture and death in order to kindle
the war spirit Fortunately China is
not yet armed and organized. but the
time may come when the CHASTITY
