WHEAT.

Wheat has remained at 60 cents all
week, and there has been little activity
in the market. Flax has gone down
again to $1.35. The recent bulge in
price caused a great deal of fax to be
brought in, but this decline will prob
ably check it for while.
Potatoes remain at 81 90 per bushel,
but arrangements are being made for
shipping them in here in carload lots,
and this is expected to cause decline
in price.
Four has gone up ten cents for the
lower grade, but remains the same
for patent -four.

St. Paul, Sept. 25.-F. w. Hoyer, a
German resident of Henderson, this
state, was taken into custody at the
state capitol for uttering threats
against the life of Governor Van SAINT.
Hoyer is believed to be mentally de-
ranged.
The officials at the capitol had been
notified that he had made threats and
were told to keep a watch for him.
AS soon as he appeared he was appre-
hended. The police were called and
the old man taken to the central sta
ton. Governor Van SAINT knew moth
ing of the trouble.
Hoyer has pent some time about the
capitol of late, and had written long
letter in German to the governor ask
ing him to release his wife from the
st. Peter insane asylum. He says she
IS not now insane and that he wants
her to live with him again.

The house is full of arnica
And mystery profound;

Or make the slightest sound;
We leave the big piano shut
And do not strike note;
The doctors been here seven times
Since father rode the goat.
He joined the lodge a week ago
Got in at 4 a. M.
And sixteen brethren brought him home,
Though he says he brought them.
HIS wrist was sprained. and one big rip
Had rent his Sunday coat
There must have been lively time
When father rode the goat.
He's resting on the couch to-day
And practicing his signs
The hailing sign, working grip,
And other monkeyshines;
He mutter passwords meath his breath,
And other things he'll quote
They surely had an evenings work
When father rode the goat.
He has a gorgeous uniform,
All gold and red and blue
A hat with phimes and yellow braid,
And golden badges, too
But. somehow, when we mention it
He wears a look so grim
We wonder il he rode the goat
