A HINDOO LEGEND.

Twashtri, the god Vulcan of the Hin
doc mythology, created the world. But
on his commencing to create woman he
discovered that with man he had ex-
hausted all his creative materials. and
that not one solid element had been left.
This, Of course, greatly perpleXed Twash-
tri and caused him to fall in a profound
meditation. When he arose from it he
proceeded as follows:
He took
The roundneSs of the moon
The undulating curves of the serpent
The graceful twist Of the creeping
plant
The light shivering of the grass blade
and the slenderness of the willow,
The Velvety softneSs of the flowers.

THAT'S ALL,

But yesterday twas winter
In the valleys and the hills,
And the violet was dropping,
And the lily had the chiIls
But now just see the weather
In a cloud of pink and white.
o tbs fine this kind of living,
In this blessed land of ours;
One day you're pitching snowballs.
And the next you're pulling flowers.
But we take it as we find it,
From the springtime to the fall.
If we melt we nexer mind it;
If we freeze, we freeze, that's all.

Thirty-one United States naval vessels
are lying at anchor because officers and
crews cannot be had. and yet sixty new
ships at a cost of $50, OOO,O 900 are being
built. Why build ships and let them
rust and rot? If a farmer with a field
of wheat to cut should buy a dozen
reapers and binders he would be thought
a fool. We wouldn't need so many ships
If we would attend to our own business.

DYNAMITE ACCIDENT.
John Williams Loses an Eye and
Portion of Finger by the Ex-
plosion Of a Dynamite Cap.
The Rest and Reading Room is For
malIy Opened by Appropriate
r. Exercises. IL

o. On Wednesday of last week John
Williams who lives north of town met
with very bad accident which re-
suited in the loss of one of his fingers
and also his right eye. He had been
carrying some empty cartridge shells
in his pocket and among them was a
dynamite cap, having been using these
caps while at work grubbing stumps.
He had occasion to light a match and
took from his pocket what he supposed
was one of the empty shells and struck
a match to it,. He had made mistake
and took out the dynamite cap and
when he lit the match the cap ex-
ploded and lacerated his hand, piece
OF the copper shell also penetrating his
eye. He was taken to the Northwest
ern hospital where DR.. Cooney attended
to his injuries, amputating a part of
the index finger to his right hand and
attending to the eye and face the best
he could. The injury to the eye was
so serious that Williams was sent to
the city and DR.. Aldrich decided that
in order to save the uninjured eye he
would have to remove the eye that was
injured. After the operation Mr.. WIFI
liams came back and is now at the hos
pital where he will remain until he
RECEIVERS from his injuries. The acct
dent might have resulted fatally, and
Mr.. Williams is fortunate to escape as
he did, bad as his injuries are.

SEVEN THOUSAND DEER.
This Number Said to Have Been Killed In
Minnesota This Year.

Minnesota This Year.
A St. Paul Dispatch says: Seven
thousand deer, twenty moose, great
many chickens and more quail than
ever killed this year.
This is an approximate estimate
made by Samuel Fullerton, executive
agent of the State game and fish COM
mission. Speaking further about the
hunting, Mr.. Fullerton said:
"Over $50 deer were brought into
Minneapolis and the same can be said
for St. Paul. About $50 deer were
brought into Duluth. Since the sale of
venison was prohibited, deer have in
creased rapidly. Ducks were fewer
this year, chickens unusually plentiful
and the number of quail astonished
everyone. They seemed to be every
where.
II cannot tell the exact number of IL
censes issued, as yet, but it is interest
ing to note that St. Louis county
headed the list with 27OO to it's credit.
There were about 100 nonresident
hunters in the State this year,
