performance and the means she ufilizes

skeptica who witness these performances
admit that the forces and agencies nee
essary to accomplish such feats as Miss
Fay performs nightly are wonderful. Miss
Rays engagement will close with a spe-
cial performance Sunday night, and in
cludes matinee for ladies only tomorrow
afternoon.

care particularly about this thing, but
state pride and state interest, and then,
as there is no possibility of Minnesota
receiving the slightest consideration from
the convention, we ought at least to make
an appearance of demanding something"
This is the idea "Should the situation
warrant the delegation from this state in
so doing" says this remarkable docu-
ment, 1--WE recommend that they present
his name to the convention as candi-
date for such Office
Was ever more cordial or open-heart-
ed support extended by a deliberative
body to the ambitions of any statesman
out of a job since the world began than
is here presented to view? Should the
situation warrant! OF course the situa-
ton will not warrant, and then the entire
episode will have passed away some
thing as the little incidents identified
for years with the name of Senator Davis
used to pass away in former conven-
tions
1t has always seemed to the uninitiated
one of the most remarkable phenomena
of politics with what extraordinary read
mess all the party shouters take cue
which is entirely lost on the rest of the
world. Down to the acti@. precinct COM
mitteeman there is evidenced that in
stinctive realization of delicate situa-
ton by all identified with the running
of the party machinery which makes
man firm believer in telepathy as
medium of irtercommunication. Here,
for instance. is the Washington CORE
spondent of the st. Paul Dispatch, who
now comes forward with his literary
posy which he proceeds to lay at the
feet of the Minneapolis statesman. In
his latest published communication to his
paper that distinguished associate of
statesmen says regarding the action of
the convention:
'"Tke action of the Minnesota state Re
publican convention in indOrSing Wash
burn brings his candidacy directly before
the delegates. While there is no marked
enthusiasm that can be diScerned on the
part of the two delegates at large from
Minnesota who are serving in the United
States senate the Dispatch correspondent
feels justified in saying that the delegates
will carefully regard whatever inStruc-
tions the state convention has eXacted,
and will. if the occasion seems propittous,
support Senator Washburn.'
Why so cruel as to point out the de-
pressing fact that no marked enthusiasm
distinguishes either of the delegates at
large-the two senators from Minnesota,
to with favor of the candidacy of
Senator Washburn? Would not that have
been as easy to skip? Doubtless it would,
were it not for the onerous responsible
ity which rested on the correspondent to
point out the fact that 'if the occasion
proves propit:ous" the delegation will
support Senator Washburn for vice
president.
1t has not yet been made apparent just
how this particular form of 'jollying" is
received in Minneapolis, but that COM
munity will have entirely surrendered its
reputation for ability to insist on what
ever it chooses to regard as it's rights
If its statesmen continue silent while
this neat little confidence game is being
worked on their community.

Unless some unexpected change
occurs in the situation, the Republi-
cans will enter on the fall campaign
with heavy load to bear. The
Philippine rebellion is apparently as
far from conclusion as ever; the
ship subsidy bill, though modified, is
still almost as vicious as it was; the
Has-Pauncefote treaty has been made
even more obnoxious and dangerous
by its much Landed amendment, while
the Porto Rican bill, however deci-
ded, will be a milestone around the
necks of those who we're so willing to
surrender principle to expediency.
Free silver is no longer a. possibility,
and the Democrats have only to al
low some of the old issues to lapse
into the background and range them
selves OH the side Of the Constitution
and Declaration of independence,
they will triumph.

One of those strange accidents, It
which Providence plays hand, hap
pened on Burbridge, last Sunday.
The little sons of Bienville Dolese are
employed in the rice field as ssbird-
minders. Every night they are
given their pro rata of ammunition,
the explosive element of which they
store in a bottle, a cheap substitute
for a powder horn. Sunday morn
ing the younger of two, aged nine,
had no strap with which to tie his
bottle across his shoulder, and Sc
cured a string for the purpose, which
was exceedingly long. The little fel-
low, not having knife to cut,
thought the fire could burn off the
superfuous string, and TO that effect
stopped before the fire place and ig-
nited it, contiguous to the bottle of
powder. What happened can be
easily be surmised. One boy was
found under the bed and the other
about twenty feet outside of the
house, with his hand and arm severe
ly burned. Fortunately, none of the
flying glass came their way.-Plaque-
