The ladies of the Congregational

patronage given them. Everybody was
good natured and the general feeling of
good will was prevalent during the entire

were disposed of to good advantage and
still not of exorbitant prices, satisfactory
both to the seller and the buyer. A very
pleasing program was rendered in the
evening, the star attractions of which

attention to the special price the factory
is making on their Blizzard cigar for the
holiday trade. They emphasize the
point of cleanliness in the manufacture
Of all their cigars, and justly so, for that
is an important thing when one thinks
that cigars are made to be put in the

worked untold injury to smokers. In
this connection we wish to call attention
to the appropriateness of these articles

Liquid Air Entertainment.

The attendance at the lecture given in
Turner hall Wednesday evening was not
as good as expected. The experiments
in the different properties and effects OF
liquid air, the way 1t is made, and the
uses to which it may be put were all very
interesting and instructive, but the lee
turer was poor talker, glammatlcally
and other ways, however, his calculations
were quite plain and he could be under
stood very readily in his explanations.
Liquid air is such new element that it
can hardly be SAID to be practical in any
Of Its uses but that it is something that
will eventually be as useful as electricity,
there is no doubt and the opportunity
that was given last Wednesday to the
people of this city. of seeing this wonder
full condition of the air we breathe was
treat that is hardly appreciated as it
should be. Liquid air is simply frozen
air. Common air taken from the at
mosphere is pumped into cold coils of
pipe and by means of heavy pressures is
forced through a small opening in the
extremity of the pipe at such an almost
inconceivable rate that it becomes cold
beyond conception and finally the mole
cules become so reduced that the air
comes forth in the shape of dry liquid
that IS 31s degrees below zero and is
capable of an explosion that is greater
than nitro glycrine. The evening was
well spent for anyone interested In
chemistry.

COL. BOBLETER'S CASE.
A Settlement with the State of Minnesota
Agreed Upon.

Col. Bobleter of this city has made
the state an offer, through the governor,
to pay the $4,000 balance which will re-
main due on the claim against him, after
his hondsmen have paid the $4,000
they have offered in settlement Attor-
ney General Douglas indorses Col. Bob
letters statement and recommends that
the offer be submitted to the commits
sion to be appointed to adjust the claim
as requested by Col. Bobleter. It is
very probable that the proposition will
be accepted.
There is Considerable misconstruction
OF the circumstances and the position of
Bobleter in this matter and the case
9Roinly put by the Pioneer Press of
.44s, Sunday from which we quote
''By the failure of certain banks in
which state funds were deposited by
Col. Bobleter when he was state treas
urer, a considerable amount of, money
was lost to the state which Col. Bobleter
and his bondsmen are called upon to
make good AS there is no evidence or
charge that this money was lost from
any lack of care or prudence on the part
of Col. Bobleter 1t is shame that either
he or his bondsmen should be held le-
spc nsible to the state for the failure of
the hanks in which the funds were de-
posted. But looking at it as the
law stood at the time he was treasurer
he and they are technically liable for the
losses of state money thus incurred. At
the last session of the legislature the
law was so amended as to relieve the
state treasurer Of any personal liability
for losses of this kind. A board of de-
posit was constituted to designate as
state depositarles banks in sound Condi-
ton from which bonds covering twice
the amount Of any deposites are required
The state treasurer may deposite state
funds in such banks and has no further
liability. The enactment of such law
is confession by the state of the wrong
done TO Col Bobleter and his bondsmen.
