In Squire Paynes' court, at Lex
ington, the four State College stu
dents, who had been arrested for
their hallowe' en- pranks in obstruct
ing the street car track and other
wise injuring private property,
were given an impressive trial
which resulted in the imposing of
fines in each case, aggregating $50
and costs. Both fines and costs
were paid. The young mems names
are withheld at the request of the
college authorities who explained
that publication would embarrass
them, as they believed their acts
were the result of misguided idea
of fun.
Such conduct should not be toll

pleased to state that some effort
was made here to stop such "sport.

The Iowa City Republican notes
that Congressman Foss, of Mas

tie and wheat, in order that New
Englanders may avail themselves
of the Canadian market near at

won't work. The Republican likes
to see ga Yankee gnawing beef

sold at Z cents on hoof," and also
"the big snoe factories using
leather made from western hides, ="
and it sends this ultimatum to the
down casters: "No thanks, Mr..
Massachusetts,, you cannot work

wheat upon us grangers out here.

Last week small pox developed
among the colored population of
Grassy Lick. The authorities have
the cases in charge. We clip the
following.
A correspondent Of the Liverpool
Mercury, writes that the worst case
of small pox can be cured in three
dsvs by cream of tartar dissolved
in boiling water and drank when
cold at short intervals. 1t is a
preventative as well as well as a
cure. IL has not failed in hun
dred thousand cases, leaves no
marks, causes no blindness, and
prevents tedious lingering. An
ounce Of cream of tartar to a pint
of water is the preparation.

THE ScRIBBLER
wise and otherwise-Mostly other
80 Begged, borrowed, stolen


A Kansas editor recently gave
the following advice TO the young
men of his town: cit cannot be
denied that church services devel-
Cd the best there is in a man.
Church attendance suggests clean
liness-in mind and b9dy---a get
ting away from ones selfand where
the conditions haye tendency to
revere the machine, to take ones
self out Of ones self, and to de-
gree direct in the channels Of
brotherIy kindness and charity /;
and we have often wondered why
bright young men-well dressed
and self-respecting young men
can loaf about the shops and street
corners all Sunday morning, while
there are so many empty seats in
the churches. The greatest force
to day in the world is the church
and the young man who loafs on
the streets Sunday, sneers at
Christianity, reviles the churches,
while neglecting or refusing to at
tend church services shows a lack
of something in his moral makeup.
Church influences, church teach
ings, are uplifting; church servic-
es, when not tedious, appeal to a
mans better nature, while they are
often entertaining and instructive.
No young man in the town can Of
fer a good reason for not attending
church services at least once
Sunday; and when a young man
bristles up at the mention Of it he
should be reminded that he is not
half as brave as he thinks he is.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1902-11-12

very small percent of men die
from typhoid fever, who do not
drink while only a small percent get
well of those who are addicted to
the rum habit. This is equally
true of a number of other diseases.
The Columbia, Mo-, Herald re-
marks: "This blessed town has
some queer ways. 1t strikes an
old fashioned individual like my
self as a little odd that girls should
become society women as soon as
they put on long skirts. They
manage to get smattering of
schooling in this school town where
the very atmosphere is heavy with
literature. Then they quit even
pretense at study and come out.
Their parents plead but it is no
use. They have taste of society
and away they go. 1t is easier to
harness a young mule than one of
these young maidens. After awhile,
as is the duty of all women, ex-
cept sainted few, they get mar
ried and then some of them awake
to the desirability of that larger
look upon life which education
gives. Then comes the pathetic
picture of married women going to
school. A girl has no business in
society until she is through school.
The social business has wrecked
more happiness in this community
than all the whiskey in all the sa-
looms and drug stores. :"

Consumption


Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive SO and Ioc
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott's sEmulsionisthemo
ern method Of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
Scott'S Emulsion is the most
refined Of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
Scott'S Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophoS-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has special
action on the diseased lungs.

An exchange states that one of
the most remarkable cases ever
tried in the state was recently set
tied at Decatur. A young man
bought 1000 extra fine cigars and
had them insured for their full val
ne, smoked them up and then de-
manded his insurance, claiming
they had been destroyed by fire.
The case was taken to court and
decided in favor of the young man.
The insurance company then had
the young man arrested for setting
fire to his own property and the
same Judge ordered that he pay a
fine and go to jail for three months.

EXODUS OF FAIR
VISITORS BEGINS
Railroads Put on Extra Equi pment
to Handle Home Going Crowds
and Hotel Clerks Get Well
come Rest.

Yesterday was probably the busiest
day of busy week for the hotel clerks
Of st. Paul. Every day since last Sat-
urday they have been assigning peo-
pie to rooms but yesterday they were
presenting bills, dealing out assurance
regarding the delivery of baggage at
the depot and generally cleaning up
the business of the week.
The exodus was heavy yesterday
and the union depot was crowded with
passengers for the outbound trains.
Extra equipment was put on the trains
and even at that many people who
were going only a short distance rode
standing up.
they did not all go by any means and
the down town hotels had no rooms to
spare last night.
The sightseers generally got away
yesterday, but the people who have
had exhibits at the fair will stay ever
three or perhaps four days. Many will
take their exhibits direct to the Wis
consin state fair at Milwaukee. Many
of the side shows will go down there,
while others will stop at Winona for
the street fair, which opens there to-
morrow. So there are still many
strangers in town.
The hotel clerks have had a hard
week of it and are beginning to see
a rest ahead although at this time
of the year business is heavy, beeause
so many travelling men are on the road
with their winter and holiday goods.
Many of them have spent the week in
st. Paul, receiving their out of town
customers.

Michael F. Kahn, candidate for
Democratic nomination for county
auditor, is one of the best known
Democrats in ST. Paul and Ramsey
county and will make his campaign for
the nomination he seeks on his reputa-
ton as citizen and as auditor.
Mr. Kahn has lived in st. Paul
twenty years and has during all that
time been prominent in the councils
of the Democratic party. In 1887 he
was elected county auditor and sue
cessively reelected in 1889 and 1891
He retired in 1898, but upon the re-
tirement of his successor, James Burns,
was appointed to fill out the unex-
pired term.
Mr.. Kain's friends claim that his rec
ord as auditor stands alone in the
history of Ramsey county and that he
is known in commercial circles as the
only auditor who ran the Office in per-
son. He enjoys the confidence of the
Democracy of ST. Paul and Ramsey
county in the highest degree and as
secretary of the city and county or
ganization demonstrated in the re-
cent spring campaign his abilities as
an organizer and executive.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1902-09-07

Offers his record during the thirty six
years of his residence in st. Paul as
a reason why the Democrats should
nominate him for sheriff. He came to
this country when lad of thirteen,
and by industry and honesty has made
his way in the world and gathered a
host of friends, who esteem MIN high
ly as a citizen and neighbor.
Mr.. Houck has never been in politics
and is entrusting his candidacy to the
people, of whom he is one. He. con-
ducts successfully a meat market at
Rice and Como avenue, is a member Of
several local societies and is an ener-
getic worker therein. He has been
president for five years of the Retail
Meat Dealers association and five years
of the German Catholic Orphan society.
Should the. Democrats bestow the
nomination upon Mr.. Houck he will
work hard for the entire ticket, and if
elected will perform the duties of the
Office with signal ability and fidelity.
