the commercial branches, bookkeeping,
stenography, . penmanship and arith-
metic, also in English and electricity.
The display is neatly arranged upon
cards of uniform size and hung upon
the walls of the correspondence room.

lively a new line of effort in the
Young Mems Christian association. 1t
reaches men whose time is occupied
during the day and who have neglect
ed their early training feeling the
need of improving their condition. 1t

tion rooms during the convention. Be

Chas. Halverson of Dawson, Lac qui
Parle county, gave the humorous talk
of the session, and must be heard to be
appreciated. He announced himself
as a temperance crank and declared
himself a friend of Mrs. Nation. He
gave the young people some splendid
advice.
Representative j. [. Dobbin of Min
neapolis was pleased with the city and
the school, and said the devotional
exercises this morning had impressed
him more than any church service he
had attended for years. He warned
the young people not to forget to
teach patriotism. He promised his
support for the school.
F. @. Stevens, who represents Hen
nepin county, spoke briefly. He advis-
ed the students not to be in a hurry not
to force their education, but to take
time and be thorough. Let your stand
ard be high.
@. W. Sites, chairman of the house
committee, was introduced as the last
but not the least among the speakers.
He was pleased with his reception
here and gave an interesting talk.
> Mayor Currier was asked to turn
over the keys Of the city, which he
did on conditions that the Legislators
find them He gave them a hearty
welcome but on account of the lateness
of the hour only spoke briefly.
President Cooper closed the exer-
cises by thanking the statesmen for
their kind words of appreciation OF
our school

LAKE CRYSTAL.
From the Union :

From the Union:
Owen NJ. Jones, whose home is in
Colorado, and who came here to attend
the funeral of his father, is quite sick
with pneumonia at the residence of
his mother in Judson.
Later: Mr.. Jnes died this morning.
The sorrowing mother and brother,
Robert F., have the sympathy of all in
this second affection. The funeral
will be held next Friday at one
o'clock in the afternoon. The remains
viii be buried in Jerusalem cemetery.
Memorial service will be conducted
next Sunday morning at Salem church.
81. c. Howard has again been heard
from through Mrs. Howard. She re-
ceived a letter from her husband Tues
day morning, and the doctors say he
will be able to scratch his nose with
that hand in three months. The
stitches have been removed from the
incision, and everything promises a
speedy recovery. He does not say
when he will retun home, but it is
presumed he is making time pass
easily we should judge so from the
reports of those who come from there.
The patients will be sorry when he
leaves, and the Sisters will rejoice, for
he is worrying the life out of them
with his jokes. His son, Frank, is
still with him, and expects to remain
until Saturday.

A VIEW OF OKLAHOMA.

J. R. Lankard of Redwood Falls.
who is down in Oklahoma taking a
look at the country, writes the Red
wood Reyeille that settlers are going
into that territory in large numbers.
The train he took out from Kansas
City in the evening was crowded to it's
utmost, he says, and the previous one
in the morning went out in thr ee
sections. He found a little snow down
in that section and the weather was
quite cold. He says he found a great
variety Of land, mostly red clay and
jack oak sand, and that there was a
tenant on every quarter section
though it might be all sand. The cattle
men are being driven out of the rang e
country, he says, as settlers are invad-
ing the country and taking the land,
ever so tracts being filed on. One
accustomed to the black soil of Min
nesota, he continues, would think this
red clay and Jacks" las the jack oak
land is called) would not raise white
beans, but the fact is people raise
good wheat and corn, but the grass is
very short and it takes about 6 to s
acres to feed one COW. There is
scarcely any wild grass for hay, and
40 tame hay.
This seems to be the home of the
peach, as it thrives immensely. Trees
four years old begin to bear. The
quality Of the fruit is fine. Other
fruits do we'll.

TESTS PATIENTS.
The Most Patient MankatO Citizen Must

bargain.

A move is on foot to increase the
salary of the governor from So, 600 to
SO, 900 per year. 1t is urged by those
interested in the move, that the sum
now paid is not in keeping with the
dignity of the position, that the state
does not furnish a residence as many
states do, and that the present amount
is not sufficient to meet the expense
of the social requirements which are
entailed upon one in that position.

some, and take steps looking to a pub

front. A year or two ago it was pro-
posed to establish such a bath on the

Why would it not be a good thing to
talk this matter up and III it to
be one of the things to materialize for
1901.
