Death of c. A. Yetter.

A telegram was received here by the
Masonic Lodge last Friday announc-
ing the death of Clarence A. Yetter,
formerly of Willmar. The telegram
was sent from Banning, Cal, and
word was Immediately sent to broth
er of the deceased at Stephen, MINI.
He wired back that the necessary ar
rangements would be made and that
the remains would be forwarded to
Rochester for burial.
Deceased was stricken down with
quick consumption several months
ago, and left Crookston to seek a bet
ter climate in California. The news
of his illness reached friends here
only a short time ago, and the sac
announcement of his death soon fol
lowed. Mr.. Yetter was in the rea
estate and insurance business here
for some time prior to his departure
for other fields, and enjoyed the &C
quaintance and friendship of a larg'
circle of friends. He was about 2!
years of age.

The Train Stood Still.

A TRIBUNE representative happened
into one of our business houses the
other day and found the genial head
man all wreathed in smiles. He had
a joke on one of our merchants which
he started to relate, and suggested
that the same would not appear bad
in print. OF course he cautioned the
reporter not to mention names, and
he was given the assurance. There
was a freight train standing in the
yards one morning, and like many
other trains of that kind it kept on
standing. This merchant had an err
rand to a neighboring western town,
and supposing the train would start
soon, boarded the same, and settled
down in perfect contentment. He had
often boarded trains that were slow
in starting, but this "cussed" Jim
Hill train kept on standing with as
much stubbornness as ever. The min
utes grew into hours and still there
was no sign of a start. The noon
hour was fast approaching and he
bethought himself of the awful waste
of time and soliloquized on the brief.
ness of life. His patience was taxed,
and he decided to go and fill up on
a hearty meal. The result was that
the afternoon passenger found him
aboard for his destination and he
reached the western town in perfect
safety. We have not heard anything
as to the Time of that freight trains
departure from Willmar, but presume
it was more stubborn than ever upor
learning that the merchant had for
saken it for one of Jim Hills palact
cars. We understand that freigh
trains have lost their popularity with
this man at least, especially the i'm
movable kind. They are not reliable
you. know, and are always sucl
"'poky' things. Knowing the goot
whole-souled nature OF the merchan
in question we feel perfectly safe il
relating the incident as one of tn,
many disappointments that traveller
have to put up with. * r.. 4. -. =. ! !

But up the serpent popped his head

But up the serpent popped his head
the liquor power I mean.
And in his pent-up wrath he said,
while his eyes we're turning green.
If the referendum should succeed twill
knock our business fat,
And with teetotal Bryan in the chair,
we won't know where we're at.
Then Chairman Jones said to his men
I bid you all be mum;
Don't speak of referendum more while
we are ruled by rum,
For should Mckinley get the votes of
the liquor Democrats
Our party will be beat so bad we won't
know where we're at.
Then Mckinley to the liquor power
said, How is this, my pet.
You know while I've been in the chair,
you've had no cause to fret;
Remember in the Philippines four hum
dred new canteens,
And as far as business is concerned
you all know what that means.
Said the liquor and the money power
we'll vote for you this time,
For you have helped our business
much down in the Philippines;
Imperialism makes no d., we don't
vote Democrat.
For with Mckinley in the chair we
know just where we're at.
Then, oh. so many preachers join the
liquor mems parade.
And marching to the ballot box en-
dorse the liquor trade; 49,.
They stoop to kiss the golden calf like
the Israelites of old, ~. >.
Unmindful that our ship OF state is
drifting to her goal. 4. y.
With Marcus Hanna in command,
she's being propelled by greed, /.
And to the home once reached by
Rome, she's going on with speed,
But let us hope the time will come be.
fore it is too late, z. I:
That the friends of freedom will unite
and save our ship otstate.

The Situation as Viewed From 4 Nom
Partisan Standpoint.

The Situation as Viewed From 4 Nom
Partisan Standpoint.
I never was in such fix in all nv
life before,
To learn the tricks in politics I'll
never try no more;
I'm not gold Republican nor a sill
yer Democrat,
And as far as party is concerned I
don't know where I'm at.
I once was Populist and in the middle
of the road,
But when the wolves got in the fold
and the sheep around was strewed.
Twas then I had to take the woods
and I lost my Barker hat,
And now my head is bald and bare
and don't know where I'm at.
I followed up the Bryan crowd till I
got glimpse of Towne.
I saw them harness Stevenson and
turn my idol down;
They seemed inclined to Adlai because
he's Democrat,
But since I much preferred the truth,
I don't know where I'm at.
I joined the prohibition crowd-they
met to resolute,
And prohibition you would think was
all twas in disputes;
The money question was ignored with
imperialism fiat,
Which left me in the lurch again, and
don't know where I'm at.
Then buried party out of sight and
| made a platform grand,
With referendum for a plank on which
all men could stand; 49,,
thought If congress made law to
please the plutocrat,
If we could have the veto power, we'd
know where we were at. i.
And when I'd weighed the subject well
with party out of sight, =.
And referendum for my theme, went
into the fight. :,.. 4 T. > ~
To help put Bryan in the chair and
down the plutocrat, 55s .5=
With legislation then direct, we'd

DEWEY FOR SCHLEY

1t is a very regretabe circumstance
that surrounds the outcome of tn.
Schley board of inquiry. This is 10
altogether due to the fact that al the
members Of the court did not decide in
of Schley, but it means a continuation
OF the controversy. AS it now stands,
the public will only be satisfied by q
thorough congressional Investigations
The facts elected by the court were
of such a nature as to increase favor
for Schley and cast additional con-
domination on the naval clique that
has maligned and wronged the real
hero Off Santiago and sustain the
Sampson blissfulness in regard to the
matter.
The fact that Dewey was member
OF the court was conclusive enough for
the public, for they knew insofar as he
was concerned, the inquiry would be
marked with fairness and impartiali-
land it was ready to submit to his
decision.

their Influenza.
DR.. Herman KUeniger, a German OF
nigh scientific attainments, has for
some time been trying to find out what
becomes of the germs that are re-
leased when a person speaks, coughs
and sneezes, and from the conclusions
at which he has arrived Henri De
Parville. a French scientist, feels JUS
titled in claiming that person may by
simply sneezing commit homicide. 'Dr
koeniger," he says, 'has clearly
proved that person who speaks,

which there is no appreciable current
OF air disseminates germs to distance
Of more than seven meters, and that
these germs are carried in all direc-
lions and even to height of more
than two meters. AS few persons talk
alike, the germs disseminated by
speech vary greatly. some of them re-
naming in suspension for an hour.
and others only for quarter of an
hour, the latter being especially the
case when there is even a slight cur
vent of air. On the other hand, germs
are very quickly disseminated by
coughing and sneezing, and the small
er the microbes are the further they
are likely to spread. Among such
tiny microbes are those of influenza
and the plague, whereas among the
larger ones are those Of tuberculosis
and diphtheria. Evidently. therefore,
the danger is greatest whenever there
Is the greatest number OF microbes
within a PERSONS mouth. In view of
DR.. Koeniger's discovery it will be
we'll for everyone to keep as far away
as possible from persons who cough
and sneeze. Physicians advise persons
suffering from colds to gargle and
keep their mouths cleansed, but is that
sufficient and are any such precau-
tons a guarantee against diphtherla?
In any case person should always
cover his mouth with his hand or his
handkerchief before he coughs or
sneezes. Sneezing seems an innocent
act. but DR.. Koeniger's new expert
ments show that it could very easily
be used as weapon with which to
commit homicide
