,rulcfin. Wagner.

Wagner when a young man wrote a
souata which had a fair success, but in
after life he made every effort to sup
press it. Going to the publisher. he
SAID. "Have you any copies of that mis-
cradle thing still unSold?" Yes was
the reply: Il have quite a number of
them in stock" ''Send them to me at
once. with a bill,'' said the composer.
\ thousand copies We're soon after
ward delivered at his door. The bill
was a big one. but it was paid, some
what gr%udgingly, and Wagner thought
he had done with the thing. What
was his surprise. then, at receiving two
or three months later on another con-
Segment. this time Of 500 copies.
81 thought you had only a thousand
of these things" he protested. "That
was all l had in Stock" explained the
dealer, "but these have been returned
by my agents, to whom I wrote that
you wished to have the sonata sup
pressed" Wagner WINGED, but there
was nothing for it but to pay the bill
And thereafter whenever business was
dull with this crafty publisher a few
hundred copies Of the sonata would be
struck off on shopworn paper and de
livered at the composers door, with {
memorandum to the effect that the.

G. SDinp Mt n Sunbeam.

It's a common enough thing for chill
dren to try to pick up sunbeams, but
the earnestness with which this at
tempt was made by a small boy in an
elevated car attracted the attention of
the other passengers.
He was a very small boy, not more
than 2h years old and still in dresses.
The seats in the q were all taken,
and the small boy stood up with his
mother.
There came into the car I'VE one of
the blinds a slender sunbeam, which
fell Giagonally downward across the
little fellows dress, and when his eye
fell upon this lie reached down anG
carefully closed his hand over it anC
then raised his hand to his face anC
opened his fingers. But there wasn'1
any sunbeam there.
The passengers who saw this were
as much interested in it all, in theil
way, as the small boy was in his, ant
presently they saw him try it again
Looking down, he saw the sunbeam
still there, just where it had been be
fore when he had tried to grasp it, ant
he made that effort again.
Reaching down, he closed his finger
around it once more, and once more h
raised his hand and opened it and look
ed inside for the sunbeam, once NOR
to find-nothing there.
Then taller buildings cut off the ray
and the small boys mind was diverte
into some other channel.-New Yor

Tuesday morning Rev. G. Wilson

Audubon, but who have of late been
stationed up in Woodbury. county,

on his fine farm, east of the Station,
and now proposes to have plenty of

Ole E. Olson seems to be on the road
to success. He was married last fall and
settled with his wife On a farm north of
Taylor where he has 50 acres of grain
this year. He has a small bunch of cat
tie which are being kept in a herd
through the summer, and during the
past six weeks Ole has been put shear

way will nearly pay the expenses of run,

/, S. Let's: Incident to the shock Of
Robinson's house by lightning consider:
able discussion has been had in the city
over the question Of the probability Of
the wires having acted as a medium Of
conductivity of the lightning into the
house, The answer to this question is
one that undoubtedly interests e~verybod,
in Dickinson. To my mind the fact il
this; Instead Of serving as conductor o.
lightning into the house, the variout
wires served to difuse the volume Of the
electric current, thus breaking Its force
and conveying it a%wayAacting as :
means Of protection to every one in the
house. The fact that the ~incandescen1
lamps we're all burned out is inciden'
simply to induction. The electric cur
rents did not enter the insulation Of ths
wires, but followedit by induction, ane
that is evident by the fact that the in
canndescent globes were all in tact
while all the platina lights upon the en-
tire circuit were completely destroyed
Moreover the lightning stroke entered
through the chimney, shattering il int
pieces and was thus diffused as aboy'
indicated.
