''You can talk all you want to about

that caps them all" said a we'll
known railroad man who just re-
turned from a trip in the southern
part Of the state. This mans name
is Thing. and he's a preacher. too. He
is called Every Thing, AnN Thing and
sometimes any old thing, 5ut he bears
it all with a patient shrug The way
he got his name is rather amusing.
He lives near Zumbrota. in Coodhue
county. When he was a youth and
his name was handed 10 him il was
'Hog'-yes. spelled the same way, and
also pronounced that way. After he
engaged upon his ministerial duties
he did not care to be called a hog, so
he asked that his name be changed.
He appealed TO the district court, and
the judge asked him what name he
preferred. He replied. saying any
thing would do. Therefore they gave
him the name Of Thing. and Il is his
for keeps. He IS the pastor Of a pret-
ty little white church, with green
.linds. and everyone that knows him
says he is a good Thing. Duluth

Saturday, September 2l, 1901.

Upon orders from the officials O. the
different telegraph companies or upon
the common impulse of the operators
where direct instructions were not re-
ceived, the great telegraph system of
the United States was suddenly hushed
at 2.3O p. m, the hour set for the low
ering of the presidents body into the
grave at Canton. At that moment on
all the huge network Of wires from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, not "sounder'
in the land gave single tick. 1t is es-
timated that fully 100000 telegraphers
thus simultaneously paid homage to
the memory Of Mr.. Mckinley. The to-
tai number of miles of wire affected was
upwards of a million and a quarter.

FROM A COMMERCIAL STANDPoINT-R.
G. Dun's trade review, issued Thurs
day, has the following:
When a great leader falls In battle
his army grieves; but does not aban-
don the attack. Rather it Is urged on
ward by a desire to accomplish the
task to which his life was devoted.
Victories of peace are greater than
those Of war, and no man has been so
conspicuously associated with the In
dustrial development Of the United
States as William Mckinley. Facetious
comments on the advance agent of
prosperity" were turned to wonder and
admiration by the steady gains In BUS
mess conditions. Instead OF buying
more than we sold, foreign markets
were secured to such an extent that a
favorable trade balance of 10000. 600
was secured for the last fiscal year.
Instead of London and Paris taking all
the large bond issues offered, loans
were placed in New York because OF
the abundance Of funds available,
even British consols coming here re-
Gently.
while achievements little short OF
marvellous have already been accom-
plished, the natural resources OF the
country are by no means exhausted.
It seems most fitting at this time to
look hopefully into the future and
earnestly continue the march onward
and upward under a new leader that
was planned and desired by the one
who was taken away ere the position
was fully attained with which this
name is always associated in the
minds of the grateful and patriotic
people,"

WILL Not BE IN THF CABINET.-The
speculation. says a Boston dispatch, In
which some newspapers are indulging
as to the probability Of Senator Lodge
being asked to enter President Roose-
velt's cabinet in the event of new one
being formed, has been source of
considerable interest among the friends
of the junior senator. who are aware of
the intimate relations which exist be-
between the two. 1t can be said with
almost as much authority as though it
came from the mouth Of Senator Lodge
direct, that under no circumstances
would he become a member of the cab
met, either as secretary Of state or in
any other capacity. In speaking Of the
matter. close personal friend of Sen
ator Lodge said he was positive there
was absolutely nothing in the talk that
he might be secretary of state under
the new administration.

= quite Ancient.
} In the course Of trade, Mr.. L. r. Will
liams, of the York Implement company,
has come into possession Of quite an
ancient moving machine. He got 1t
from Mr.. R. N. McElwee, who bought
it from the late T. S. Jefferys In the
later SOS, and has been using 1t ever
since. The machine is still capable Of
doing good service.
calais, Poor Yorick?'
While working the Rock Hill road,
on the eastern outskirts Of Yorkville, a
party of hands found a curious round
bony skull, the exact nature Of which
they could not make out. Some
thought it the skull Of some kind OF an
animal that they had not seen, and
others had various opinions. DR.. Miles
Walker happened along, and at once
identified the object as human skull.
From careful examinations, he decided
that the skull was that of Negro,
and that the owner Of it was more than
40 years of age when 1t was discarded.
This latter fact was evidenced by the
absence of the sutures that divide the
skull Of younger persons. The skull
had been lying around loose for quite
awhile, and had been partially burned
on one side, probably in brush fire.
From the general condition of the
skull, and apparent evidences of de-
cav, DR.. Walker judged that 1t had
probably been out of active service for
so or go years. On this point, however,
he could only speak with approximate
accuracy, basing his opinion on COM
PARSONS with other accurate data that
had come within his experience. Of
course the doctor keeps the skull. 1t
Is now to be seen at his Office.
