The petition recounts briefly the history
Of the Northern Pacific Railway Company

DICKENS LOVE FOR THE QUEEN.
\ Fancilul Letter That Portrayed Him
as Mad With a Hopeless Passion.

There is an extraordinary letter in
some private archives written by
Charles Dickens in joking mood, in
which the novelist reveals himself in a
remarkable light. He was, to use his
own words, "Iaying with love for the
queen with hopeless passion whose
extent no tongue can tell, nor mind of
man conceive" The unhappy attach
ment," Dickens asserted. made him
very miserable and writing seemed to
be quite out Of the question for the fut-
IRE. 1t seems 20 have been some con
ISOLATION TO Dickens in the grief which
he pretended was consuming him. that
the queen read his books, and he wrote
10 his friend that when he died he wish
Cd % be embalmed and TO be kept on
the top OF a triumphal arch at Buck
lngham palate when the queen was in
town. or on n turres OF the Round
tower when she was at WindsOrl
The letter in which Dickens played
with this fanciful love for the queen
was one OF the strangest OF all the let
ters thai came from his pen One Of
his friends was afflicted as hopalessly
az he himself, the novelist wrote. and
he told how the two of them Sailed
down to Windsor prowled about the
castle, saw the corridor and their pri-
vate rooms-nay. the very bed chamber
(Which we know from having been
there twice., lighted up with such n
rudy homelV brilliant glow hpcDpaE
ing so much bliss and happiness that /,
your humble servant, lay down in the
mud at the top of the long walk, and
refused all comfort, to the immeasure-
able as;onishment of a few struggling
passengers who had survived the
drunkenness Of the previous night"
After perps trating other extravagances,
added Dickens, we went home, each
wearing a marriage medal next his
heart and a pocket full of portraits
which he wept over in secret.-St.

Sleepy Eye is Afraid.

The Sleepy Eye foot ball team which
was so anxious to claim the victory in
the last contest seems to be afraid to
meet the New Ulm boys in another
game. Every possible inducement was
made to get game. The boys of this
city eren offering to pay their own ex-
penses and to leave out the one man OBJ
jectlonable to Sleepy Eye, but the team
from the upper county could not be in-
duced to try conclusions. A represen-
tatlve of the local team went to Sleepy
Eye and was informed that half the
team wanted to play but the other half
was afraid. In view of this the local
team IS entitled to believe that it is SUI
perior. Although the season closed on
Thanksgiving day, Saturday was an ex-
cellent day and game could have been
easily played. The New Ulm team has
acquitted Itself with honor in this sea-
sons games, although it has labored un-
der the disadvantage of having no op-
posing team with which to practice at
home and has consequently been great
ly handicapped. Theywill enter anoth-
or season with every reason to believe
that they will hold the championship.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President Roosevelt's message to Con-
gress is Disappointment. It lacks his
spirit of frmness that led people to be-
lieve it would be vigorous document.
He handles the trust question with gloves
on and says nothing specific about COM
binations and mergers of railroads. On
the tariff reciprocity question the presi-
dent does not go SO far in proposing leg
islation as he did in his speech at the
Minnesota state fair, and says much less
than President Mckinley did in his Buff
falo speech. He evidently feels that he
has grave questions to deal with and
fears too vigorous attack in the begin
ing.
Don't forget to make Goo Goo eyes at
the window of Haubrich the Jeweler at
any time from Nov 25 to Dec. 25. He
has something to give away which will
be in the window during that time See
advertisement on fifth page.

It is as Unreasonable

to say that South Dakota is swept
each year by hot winds, because small
strip of that state along the Missouri
liver is visited by hot winds once in
two or three years, as It would be to say
that all Of Minnesota is ssstump" and
ssswamp" land because large tract in
the northern part of the state is such.
You know there are, and always have
been, people addicted to the habit of ex.
aggeration. Don't believe all you hear.
Don't believe that South Dakota land is
.spoor stuff" because someone who has
nothing to do but talk tells you so.
Some OF South Dakota is not farm land,
some of Minnesota and Wisconsin Is not
farm land. The lands which Lund's
Land Agency is offering for sale in
South Dakota are not within the shot
wind" belt any more than Brown county
Minnesota, is within that belt. These
lands are being offered for sale at a
plice far below their real value. 1t will
pay you to take few days and run
out there and see them. They will be
selling higher in the spring.

ACTION IS TAKEN.
Commercial Union Holds Special Meeting
to Formulate Plans in Regard to
Securing School for Girls.
PRES. KLossNER APPOINTS COMMITTEE.
Sentiment is Unanimously In Favor of Do.
ing Something Towards Securing
this State Institution.

On Friday night, pursuant to call
issued by the president of the CONNER
cial Union large number of the men,
bers assembled at the rooms of the or
ganizatlon for the purpose of discussing
the adyisability of taking action in re-
gard to securing the state reform school
for girls. The matter was fully dis
cussed and it was finally decided that
the president should appoint commit
tee to wait on the Board Of Control for
the purpose of ascertaining the exact re-
quirements. The committee was taken
under advisement and on Saturday Mr..
Klossner announced that the committee
would consist of Hon. S. D. Peterson,
Philip Liesch and Ferdinand Crone and
though he is not ON the committee DR..
Strickler has consented to work in con-
cert with tine committee and lend his in.
huence toward securing the school.
If New Ulm fails to secure this pro
ject it will not be because 1t fell short IN
its generosity or the advantages offered.
1t will because some other town has a
stronger pull and more influential men
to push the business. AT the. meeting
the matter was thoroughly discussed and
no objection was raised that could not
be easily met AMI overcome. The com
mlttee appointed will go 10 St. Paul as
soon as word is received from the Board
of Control giving them date when ii
will be convenient to meet them.
The Union then took up the matter
of securing conventions for the city at
the suggestion of G.. A. Ottomeyer, who
made a motioa TO the effect that the
president and secretary be made u spec
ial committee to look out for conven.
tions and make an effort to get them
held il the city. Frank Behnke thought
ihatshe could land the Grocer's conven.
ton il he could have the support of the

Gold fisb ~
Aquariut11s.

The interest in keeping Gold Fish is
constantly increasing; owing, we think,
to the fact that breeders have learned to
propagate them successfully and now
Gold Fish are kept in many homes in all
parts of the country. A well arranged
Aquarium adds an elegance to any place
and is one of the most desirable orna-
ments for the parlOr.
Where shall we keep the Aquarums?
Anywhere so the air is pure aud not too
much sun. The temperature Of the wa
ter should he about 60o. Fish can stand
freezing point without injury. Use we'll
water, springwater or riverwater and
change every 5. or 6 days. Feed Gold
Fish prepared fish food or white waters,
but up in small boxes at 10 cents per
box with directions on the outside and
do not feed them anything else. Two
Gold Fish and Aquariams cost 81 and
there is nothing that will give as much
pleasure in your home.
How can we get one of these Aquar-
iums with 2 Gold Fish. We have ar
ranged to give you one, absolutely free.
If you call at our store and get pound
of Imperial Baking Powder at 30 cents
we will give you two Gold Fish and an
Aquarium. No charge for the two fish
and Aquarium. IF you do not want the
Baking Powder you can buy two Gold
Fish and an Aquarium for 81. We are
giving these away to have you try our
Baking Powder, no other object. Will
be pleased to have you call and see them
whether you purchase or not.

May Spring a Surprise.

It is matter of quite common talk
since the convening of the district court
that the defendants in two or three i'm
portant criminal cases will surprise the
prosecution by an attack on the charac-
ter of one of the principal witnesses for
the state, on whose testimony a good
deal is supposed to depend. The witness
IN question is considered one of the most
ini portant IN the trial Of the Tanke case,
and is also depended ON verv largely for
a conviction in the cases against Loeffel-
macher and Quinn, accused of poisoning
cattle.
1t would perhaps be held improper
for newspaper to go into details IN a
matter that is pending in the court, par
ticularly when it is not definitely known
that an attempt will be made to impeach
the evidence of witness, but the matter
has been the subject of enough gossip to
warrant its sspublication thus far
Sheriff Mcmillan and County Attorney
Davis have done great deal of hard
work on these cases, and while they nat
urally do not discuss the lumors that are
In the air they are doubtless aware of
them, aud will not be taken by surprise.
Indeed it is said by those who assume to
know that they will spring counter
surprise on the attorneys for the defence,
and put in evidence whose existence is
not suspected by them.-St. Peter Jour-
