president of a medical college at Bir-
mingham, supposed to have been writ
ten by Dr.. j. M. Crawford, a leading
physician of Atlanta
She asked for an explanation and
Thomas told her the story of his vari-
Gus crimes. Following this Thomas
tried to get his wife to enter plot to
kidnap a two-year-old child from a
prominent family in Atlanta. His
wife refused and Thomas threatened to
kidnap and kill her child by her first
husband. This threat caused Mrs.
Thomas to tell the authorities of the
law about his many crimes and his ar
rest followed. Sunday Thomas told
his wife's father that he had made all
his shortages good and was going to
Nashville this week to enter the office
of Drs. MCGOWAN & Anderson. The
father of Mrs. Thomas found this to
be false and advised his daughter to
assist the authorities in getting hold
of Thomas. Thomas says that he is
originally from Cadiz, Kentucky. where
it is said, his people are prominent. He
confesses to a number of serious
charges against him. He will be taken
to Atlanta, where warrants are out
standing against him charging forgery
and diamond thefts from two leading
jewelry firms.

such gatherings were related in such
an entertaining and conversational
style. The club is to be compliment
ed on having such an intelligent and
consistent worker as Mrs. Black.
The organization has taken up the
study and discussion of China and
the Far East" for this season. The
president opened the subject yesterday
with very entertaining discourse on
its general features. The club will
meet every Monday afternoon. They
have secured quarters in the parlors of
the Congregational church. The mem

of the subject chosen, and they will
search the shelves of the Carnegie and
the University libraries and the many

THE HUMAN STOMACH.
How 1t KS Overworked by Three Biz
Daily Meals.

How 1t IM Overworked by Three Bis
Daily Meals.
1t requires about five hours for the
stomach to work on an ordinary meal
and pass it out of itself, when it falls
into state of rcpOsc; hence If man
eats three times day his stomach
must work fifteen hours out of tNenty-
four. After a nights sleep we wake
up with certain amount of bodily Wig
or which is faithfully portioned out TO
every muscle ofithe system and every
set of muscles, each its rightful share,
the stomach among others.
When the external body gets weary
after lang days work, the stomach
bears it's share of the fatigue, but if
when the body is weary with the day y
toll we put it to bed, giving the stom-
ach meanwhile q five hours task which
must he performed, we impose upon
the very best friend we have-the one
amounts of earthly enjoyment--and if
this overtaXing is continued it must as
certainly wear. out prematurely as the
body itself will If it is overworked ev-
cry day.
And if persons eat between meals
then the stomach has no rest from
breakfast in the morning until /, ,. 3
or o'clock next day; hence it is that
so many persons have dyspepsia. The
stomach is worked SO much and so con-
EtantIy that it becomes too weak to
work at all.

She Draws the Line.

Hereafter if Christian Scientists ad-
here to the directions of Mrs. Mary
Baker G. Eddy, they will refrain from
attempting to treat any case of contag-
ious or infectious disease which may be
placed for their ministrations.
In an editorial printed in the current
number Of the Christian Scientist, Mrs,
Eddy is quoted as follows:
"Until the public becomes better &C.
quainted with Christian Science, the
Christian Scientists shall decline to
doctor infectious or contagious diseas-
es.''
In the same editorial Mrs. Eddy says:
"On the subject of reporting contagion,
l have this to say: I have always be-
ieved that Christian Scientists should
be law abiding, and actuated by this
conviction, I authorized the following
statement about year ago:
Rather than quarrel over vaccina-
tion, I recommend that if the law de-
mands an individual to submit to this
process, obey the law and then appeal
to the gospel to save him from any bad
results. Whatever changes belong TO
this century or any epoch, we may safe
ly submit to- the providence of God and
common JUSTICE"

For Broad Education.

What ex-president Grover Cleveland
says or writes is always interesting. In
his recent address at the inauguration
of Prof. Woodrow Wilson, the new
president of Princeton University, he
said:
"Surely neither attenuated refinement
in education circles, nor a self satisfied
aristocracy among educated men.
should misinterpret to the unlearned
the mission of our higher institutions.
It should never be forgotten that our
colleges and universities cannot, with
out loss of their most useful Opportuni-
ties, disregard any means of commend
ing the substantial advantages they are
able to offer to those less fortunate in
educational condition.
, ave have fallen upon days of rush
and change when old ideas and pro-
cesses are deemed too slow to meet the
demands of what's called modern pro-
gress and when novel and accelerated
notions have invaded the business, the
politics, the social life and even the re-
ligion of our people. How can we be
certain that old and heretofore ap-
proved theories of higher education are
in no danger Of being caught in this
furry? Already there seems to be an
inclination to adjust the methods of
university and college instruction to
the apparent needs Of advanced condi-
tiOns and new exigencies. We hear
much said in favor of but slight restric-
tion upon the election by students of
the branches Of study they will pursue;
it is often asserted that the old course
of college study is too long and that
students are thus belated in their
entrance upon ife's activities.
"We of Princeton are still willing to
declare our belief, that we are better
able to determine than those coming to
us for education, what is their most ad-
vantageOus course of instruction. We
are, however, by no means unwilling
to so shape our curriculum, without
surrender of clear conviction as to ex-
pedite our graduates subsequent pre-
paration for professional life. We are
not yet convinced that the time required
for our ordinary term of undergraduate
study is too long, or that it unneces-
sarily and unproftably retards the use
full service expected of a; genuinely
educated man. !. -.z~,-~
"We will not be convinced that the
human mind has in these latter days
become so fundamentally enlarged that
a broad and useful education can by
some pleasant process be easily gained,
nor that the acuteness of the human
intellect has so kept pace with the
eager hurry Of the time that with no
toll or patient Wooing an education
worth having can he bought or seized
and forced to do service in a yainglor-
ious i and triding pretense Of erudition
prevail, Princeton will bide her time

A Pleasant Relnlnlscence.

Sherburn Advance: The Thompson:
stock farm near Window, Cottonwood
county, consisting Of nearly 500 acres,
was sold recently for 1854 per acre.
Charley Thompson, a deaf mute, the
owner of this property was quite q
character. His father was a million
aire capitalist of Minneapolis, and
when he! died about a dozen years ago
he left Charley property the income Of
which netted him $4,000 a year.
Charley conceived an idea that this
$4,000 must be spent and he succeeded
in fully carrying out the idea. He
bought this tract Of land, built fine
house and erected barn on most elab-
crate plans costing in the neighborhood:
OF $5,0O0.-, He then gathered together:
a stable of horses costing twenty-five
or thirty thousand dollars, fixed up
race track and proceeded to enjoy him.
self in true gentleman style. lThomp-
son was high-roller and spent money
with lavish hand. To illustrate his
liberality in money matters we will
cite one instance. In 1893 the Southern
Minnesota Editorial Association held
its winter meeting at Window. When
Charley Thompson learned that the
knights of the quill were to meet in his
town he solicited the privilege of ban
quoting and entertaining the literary
aggregation. His request was of course
granted and the affair was carried out
on a grand and magnificent scale. The
finest orchestra that could be obtained
in the Twin Cities was engaged for the
occasion and the 'spread' was perhaps
the most elaborate ever set before a
gathering of newspaper scribes in the
state. After the "feast of the inner
man" occurred ''feast of reason and
flow of SOUP that never was paralleled
in the history Of the association. It
was estimated that the affair cost Mr.
Thompson not much less than thous-
and dollars. Among the more promi-
nent members of the "old guard" pres
ent on this occasion were: Charles G.
Whitney of the Marshall News Messen-
ger, John A. Johnson of the St. Peter
Herald, Lemuel P. Hunt Of the Manka-
to Free Press, E. J. Lynch of the st.
James Journal, G.. D. Belden of the
Austin Transcript, Horace Greedy Per-
ry of the St. Peter Jo0rnal, Jim Ruane
of the Slayton Gazette, Addison Morri-
son Of the Mankato Journal, H. P. Hall
Of the ST. Paul Globe, and G. P. Slime,
J. S. Pinney and Theodore Meyst, rep
resenting the printers furnishings in
terests in the Twin Cities. We under
stand that several large tracts Of wild
land in this county belong to the
Thompson estate.
