Our mother has gone from among Us.
She has entered the realms of light,
She has found the Savior's promise
In that last, beloved sleep.
Forgotten. are all earth's trials.
AL sorrows have passed away.
And in Gods own green pastures.
She has tonnd the Abiding Day.
All breads of the dist Mt future,
All fears that oppressed each day.
Like mists, that clear in the sunlight,
Have noistlessly passed away,
But He called her from her lAbors,
And as the shadows round US creep,
We silently wish for mother.
But He giveth his loved one sleep.
But oh the weary lone ONE
That to US ca CHI day brings forth,
And our hearts grow sick within US
For a mothers loving word.
And oh !. how we shall miss her,
1t seems so dark to us now.
Bow en- we live without her,
In the daily round of our lives:
And when troubles arise to vex US,
Who will listen to each complain
Who will give US a mothers ounoil
And a W ife's dear, loving help!
But Col grant that we may meet her
When our work on earth is done,
And be reunited in Heaven
Where no parting ever comes.
For mother is there to meet US,
She has only gone before,
She will ever beckon onward
To that peaceful happy shore.

THE SPARK,
BUT LITTLE MONEY
Sherlock One Ring Circus Receipts
Acknowledgements Unwise
Admission. ..,z

A diamond ring valued at 500 and
$2.1O in cash were all the valuables
that Constable Gaines could get his
hands on Friday night when he at
tached the gate receipts of the Skier
beck one-ring circus at East Seventh
and Mendoza streets.
The tent hands and laborers of the
show claim that they have received no
pay for over five weeks, and Friday
evening they grew tired of promises
They brought attachment proceedings
and Constable Gaines was detailed to
get the gate receipts for Friday
Manager Tucker got wind of the in
tention of the men, and when the Of
f1cer arrived at the circus grounds the
gate money had disappeared. All that
was in sight was $2.1O, the receipts of
the concert tickets The constable
took that, and was leaving the grounds
when Mr.. Tucker became enraged and
started to abuse him.
During the argument that followed
the show manager impolitically men
TONED that he had diamond ring in
pawn down town, and he would like
to see the officer that could get to that
Yesterday Mr.. Gaines visited the
pawn shops and located the jewel
He at once attached it, and informed
Mr.. Tucker of his act. The stone is
valued at over 500, and only $40 was
borrowed on it. Constable Gaines will
take it out of pawn, and unless Tuck
er settles with his men the diamond
will be sold to help pay the delinquent
salaries. The back wages amount to
something over $500.

STORY OF FORMER BOOMER.
O. {. Hunter Reports Conversations
With Youno Bartholin.

WHIT 1oun9 0aFtnOiIn.
TOLEDO, Ohio, Aug. Ito. r..
Hunter, former roomer with Mrs.
Annie Bartholin, found murdered in
Chicago, is now in this city. He talks
in straightforward manner concern
ing his seven months tenantcy of the
Bartholin house. He left Chicago on
Friday, Aug. l, coming here in re-
Spouse to a letter from his brother,
ex-County Treasurer Samuel A. Hun
ter. His story is this:
TO the best of my recollection the
last time saw Mrs. Bartholin was on
July 4. when / paid her my rent I
hardly ever saw her except on pay day.
l OFTEN met young Bartholin at the CT
gar store at Forty third and Calumet,
whose proprietor is my nephew. He
appeared to be popular young fellow,
well esteemed in the neighborhood.
Mrs. Bartholin disappeared on July
8, and two or three days after that I
met Will, the son, and asked where his
mother was, as my bed had not been
made. Young Bartholin said that she
had gone to Michigan and that he
would see that the room was attended
to regularly, which was done. July %
was my next meeting with BarthoIin,
who said his mother had not pet re-
turned; that the gas bill was DUE, and
requested some money. I paid him 50.
This was the last saw of Bartholin
ON July 81 a Mr.. Thompson, who
had been rooming in the house for sew
enteen years, notified me that Will had
gone away to get married; that as
nothing had been heard of the old lady
he would close up the house, and re-
quested me to get another room.
left the next day for Toledo. The rela-
lions between Mrs. Bartholin and her
son appeared all right during the time
was in the house, and never heard
Will speak of Minnie Mitchell, also
supposed to have been murdered by
him."

The opening day of the reorganized
st. Paul Board of Trade was a success
and the officers and members of the
body realized before trade closed for
the day that larger quarters would
have to be secured in order to accom-
modate the business. A room on the
ground floor of the Germania Life
building, as mentioned in the Sunday
G o b e, was secured and fitted up with
the latest fixtures, but the volume of
business transacted yesterday and the
large attendance caused the officers to
at once commence to skirmish for more
commodious rooms.
AS was anticipated, the trade in hay
and grain was particularly heavy, elev-
en- cars being sold. There was also
quite a heavy business in butter, eggs
and cheese. The room of the board
was crowded during business hours,
over forty members availing them
selves of the conveniences of the or,
ganization.
Larger Quarters Essential.
President r. A. Durkee, after closing
hours yesterday afternoon, expressed
himself as particularly pleased over
the success of the day. THE attend
ance and business transacted show
conclusively," said Mr. Durkee, chat
the business men in st. Paul have made
no mistake in again opening the Board
of Trade rooms. Naturally, I expected
the attendance would be good, but I
was more than surprised when the
business of the day was over. Our
first day in the room brought it home
to us that we would have to have larg-
er quarters. The room is too small
and when the fruit commission men
get in full swing we will have no
room to transact business. There is
some talk of securing larger quarters
on Third street, while some of the
members favor locating in the Endi-
colt building. OF course nothing deffn-
lite as to the change has been decid-
ed upon, but it is apparent to every
one of the members that we must have
more room. All the members who
transacted business on the board yes
terday agree with me that the opening
was success and the organization
promises to be useful and just what
the commission men wanted for a long
time. The feature of trading in hay
for future delivery which has been
adopted, is bound to be a success"

THE MOSQUITO.


In the marshes where the bullfrog sings
his mellow serenade
IN the sWamps where booms the bittern
IN the gloomy cypress shade =
ana tne cneer1ul alligator turks Wit&l
the eyerglade;
In the cistern, where rainwater pours
and trickles down the spout;
On Stagnant pools, in grasses, and most
everywhere about,
Inc nloodthirsty mosquito from the egg
is Matching out.
And, once Matched he comes among us
with his peSky little bill
And ne settles on our persons, very much
against our will.
And inserting his proboscis, he proceeds
at once to drill.
And when througfR our epidermis ne has
managed for to bore
He fills up his little carcass to the busting
point with gore
This is strictly true, though doubtless you
suspected it before.
You think that you have got him and
ma out that you have not,
For he Keeps one eye open to elude the
sudden swat,
And knows just how long it's healthy to
remain upon the spot.
You may screen up all your windows and
1t doesn't keep him out because he STAYS
inside instead
And you wake up in the morning and find
that you've been bled.
Similarly you may smear yourself with
evil-smelling stuff
That is guaranteed by druggists on mos
quitoes to be rough,
But they seem to quite enjoy it, though
it does smell bad enough.
So he breaks our summer slumbers, robs
needed
So he drives us from our porches, where
the vines he doth infest
Ard he spoils the fun of fishing, does this
sanguinary pest.
But upon the brute's dement's we'd en-
deavor to be dumb;
wed forgive him all his faults-no incon-
siderable sum-
If he'd simply go about his bloody BUSH
ness and not hum.

THOSE FOR sURFAcING WEST
SEVENTH STREET IN THE
HANDS OF THE BOARD j.
AUG. 20 is THE DATE
FOR OPENING THE BIDS
Two Miles Will Be Paved, and in Or
der to Provide Fire Protection While
Thorouehfare Is Torn Up, Openings
Every 1000 Feet Must Be Main
tanned.

That the proposed paving of West
Seventh street might not suffer any
delay, the engineering force in City
Engineer Rundlett's Office put in sew
eral extra hours Sunday, and as re-
suit the plans and Specifications were
in readiness for intending bidders yes
terday. The bids will be opened on
the afternoon of the goth.
Street Car Company's Share.
AS the street is one of St. Paul's
main arteries of travel, and divides a
territory that is heavily populated and
covered with buildings, the necessity OF
keeping it partially open while the
paving was under way was considered
and solved by impressing on whoever
drew the contract that he maintain
plank openings every 1000 feet along
the street. The street is two miles
long and to close it entirely would en-
danger a large territory and deny it
fire protection.
AS the street car company under it's
agreement. by which it is given until
spring to pave between it's tracks, must
pave the two feet beyond it's tracks at
the same time the city's part is being
laid, the opinion is general that the
company will do all it's work this year
rather than wait 1t has been estimat-
ed that to tear up the two feet laid this
year and relay it next spring as will be
required if the company puts down new
track, will require an extra expendi-
ture of $4,000. This can be avoided
If all the work is done this year.
When paved the street will have a
sandstone surface, representing 1925
square yards. OF this amount 5,235 are
to be laid and paid for by the city rail-
way company. Bidders are required
to make separate bids on the city's and
the street railway company's part.
Work May Be Rushed.
If work is commenced as soon as
the contract is given the board of pub
lie works estimates that it can be COM
pleted by Oct l, though under no con-
sideration will the laying of the con-
crete foundation be permitted after
frost arrives. In that event the work
will have to go over to the following
year.
One thing that it is feared will i'm
pede the work is the laying of con-
Quits, which the several telephone and
electric light companies will do if the
contract is let. Some of the conduits
will be quite large and consume con-
siderable time in laying.

THE RATTLE IN THE BIN.


You may talk of your concertos,
And sonatas and all that;
You may rave of Paderewski
And the hair beneath his hat:
You may boast of Melba's warble-
But they really can't begin
To make music with the rattle
OF the hard coal in the bin.
The world is full of singing,
And it ever throbs and huns,
But how quickly 1 forget it
When the breaking coal cart comes.
Oh, it cheers my dropping spirits
When I see the chute go in,
And I know I'll hear the rattle
OF the hard coal in the bin.
There are those who dote on Wagner
There are those who Verdi praise;
There are those who care for neither,
But prefer the ragtime lays
But a melody far dearer
Doth my fancy quickly win.
'Tis the swift and vibrant rattle
OF the hard coal in the bin.

GALAPAGOS ISLANDS ARE
FILLED WITH WONDERS
Full of Minerals and Records of a
Forgotten Race.

Forgotten Race.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. IL
Capt. Richard Nye, who was one Of
those on the steamer w. S. Phelps,
tells of many wonders of Galapagos
Islands, which that vessel recently
visited. In an interview he said:
The islands are as full of minerals
as shad is of bones. On Albemarle
there is an extinct crater, miles in
diameter, in which there is in sight
10000 tons of pure sulphur. The era
ter is about ten miles inland and a
tramway will be necessary for trans
portation to the coast, but this should
be a small matter, considering the
possible profit.
r "One of the queer things in Abe
marie island is that it is overrun with
wild dogs. The animals are a mon
grel breed and were left on the island
by whalers. The dogs have become
wild and extremely vicious. They are
wolf-like in their habits and run in
droves."
Capt. Nye tells of remarkable lake
on: the island of Chatham at an ele-
walton of 5000 feetiabove the sea level.
This lake, according to the captain,
rises and falls with the tide and no
sounding line has ever reached the
bottom. Manys relics of an ancient
race were found. 4

He tells straightforward story and
says he came here looking for work,
and that he has at no time concealed
his identity or his locality. He says he
is willing to return to Chicago at anv
time If the police wish him to. One
reason he left Chicago is, he claims.
that he feared William Bartholin, who
is accused of the murder of the two
women, would also kill him. Before he
left. Chicago, he says, he expressed his
suspicion of Bartholin.
