the completion of its 14O miles of new
extensions in the very richest portions
of southwestern Minnesota. The sin
new towns, Reading, Wilmont, Lis

mand for convenient markets.
1t is the purpose of the railway COM

first day OH French soil passed with
out untoward incident. The presiden-
tial train conveying NJ. Loubet and the
czar and czarina with their suites ar.

was allowed to approach 1t.
The town of COmpiegne was bril-
liantly Illuminated, the whole route
from the station to the chateau being
decorated with festoons and colored
lights. The streets were entirely clear
of the public, and the sidewalks were
occupied by soldiers. Every window,
however, was filled with spectators,
who greeted Emperor Nicholas with an
incessant roar Of cheers.
