clio the discovery by Prof. Rollin
G. Wooster, Of Newark, N, j., of
. chemically prepared salt which,
when dissolved in water, produces
q degree of cold sufficient to make
ice cream in few minutes, and to
freeze water into blocks of ice.
The salt is said to be indestruct!-
bic and harmless, and after it has
served its purpose can be recover
ed for further use by simply ev-
aporating the water in which it
was dissolved. The process OF dis
solution lowers the temperature,

made in a few minutes by INNER

in the water containing the chemi-

in an ordinary ice box.

According to McCleary's state
the following taken from the St.
Paul Dispatch comes from a man
mot informed"
Senator Davis spoke words of
truth and soberness when he told
the republicans of the senate that
they were tempting fate and court
ing party disaster when they in.
sisted upon the passage of
the Puerto Rican tariff
bill. Since the bill was acted
upon in the house it has been
discussed moro widely than any
measure presented in a. dozen
years, and outside of thin streak
along the Atlantic there is hardly
a reputable newspaper in the IN
tied States that has commended it
or neglected to brand it as a leg
islative infamy too monstrous for
calm consideration. This uni
versal outburst of disapproval of
and indignation over an act of
congress came, as much as anything
else, from the surprise of it, and
ragged the more violently because
tho public had been given to un-
derstand by the president and by
those who speak for him, that
Puerto Rico was to be treated
fairly and'given the opportunity
it sought to become great and
rich territory. ~ a>. h..
Nothing the press has said of
tho Puerto Rican tariff bill will be
unsaid, whether the senate evils
cerates tho Unclean Thing or not.

A Lutte Fire.

About half past uine Tuesday
morning an alarm of fire was sounded,
fire having started in the house of c..
n. Shattuck, adjacent to the
Office, occupied by J. M
Havinga. The fire was caused by a
defective chimney, as board beside
the chimney between the ceiling and
the roof was atire, when the garnet
was entered a few pals of water put
it out, as tho fire had not burned long
enough to get outside or have draft.
The fire department we're promptly
on hand ready for service, but no
water was thrown. Hose cart No. 2,
was brought down, to be used if nec-
essary and would probably have been
necessary had the fire broke out, as
there was stopg wind blowing over
the row of wooden buildings.

test of tie new game law. H. H.

secuted and Justice Stacy imposed
a fine of $40 and costs. Mr.. Dunn

tue case will be argued before Judge
Kingley at Austin Tuesday next if
arrangement can be made to that end
Mr.. Donnelly, of st. Paul, attorney
for the state game and fish commits
sion, will be secured to prosecute the
case, and if Judge Kingley sustains
the law it will no doubt go to the
supreme court.-Mankato Review.

. reason-and the press will pay |
it's compliments to the upper body !
in tone and spirit that will move
even that phlegmatlc body to con-
slider it's steps. The house had
one excuse, and only one;.that was
that the bill had not. been very
generally discussed at large, the
presidents recommendation for
free trade having been accepted
as an indication of what congress
would do. The senate will not
have this excuse if it dares pass
the bill. Time was when the
country would have been divided
on the question had the president
recommended a duty, but that
time has passed. Even the presi-
dents open support of the bill
would not reconcile the people to
it now. He has had his say, and
he cannot have another guess.
His first impulse was right, and
the pnblic applauded it; if he has
reconsidered and changed his at.
titude, he is wrong, and it will be
given him to see that he is wrong.
There may be considerations of
which we have no knowledge that
have gained bis passive consent
to such an enactment, but what
ever they are they must be put
aside in the interest of the coun-
try. We believe the president is
conscientious, but we prefer to be
guided by our own conscience
rather than by his.

The Eclipse Observed Here.

Last Mondays solar eclipse was
observed here under the most favora.
ble conditions. The weather was
fine, and not cloud interfered with
natures programme. The sight pre-
sented during the progress of the
moons shadow, gradually obscuring
the face of the sun, was beautiful,
and at the moment of total eclipse it
was truly grand. The darkness of
night covered the earth, and stars
shone in the firmanent, and for the
brief moment of its duration, nature
itself seemed to have sunk back INTO
the repose of night. 1t lasted just
for an instant.
We have heard of some people
being frightened by the unusual
phenomenon, aud of darkies in the
fields who tremblrd with fear, as
they prayed for dellverance from
what was to them an impending
catastrophe ; but We suppose there is
considerable exaggeration in these
stories. 1t is however tue that
chickens started towards their roost-
ing places when darkness b. gan to
overspread the earth, and that the
roosters crew for joy when the ligh,
reappeared; while animals of u
higher order exhibited some trepida-

A Miracle.

Mrs. Josephine Hasam, a resident
of New Orleans. who had been para.
lyzed for forty.seven years, recovered
miraculously last Sunday. She had
to he lifted into chair and wheeled
around. Last year on Ascension day,
the congregation of St. Alphonsus'
Church agreed to make novcnas for
her recovery, which devo,ions Mrs.
Hasam always attended with favor.
Sunday as she was coming from the
Church she felt an inclination to walk,
and having tried, succeeded. She is
now in perfect health and able to
move about with ease. Her recovery
is due to supernatural power.-DaiIy
