The only effective way for ST. Paul to
clean up the approach to Fort Smelling ID

Inc only etfective way for st. Paul to
clean up the approach to Fort Smelling IS
to put that part Of the city in the prohi-
bition district. It was to be expected
that Mayor Smith would be opposed to
the extension Of the prohibition district,
for he is like our own ex-Mayor Ames in
his ideas as to what constitutes a BUSH
ness administration. Mayor Smith says
that he fears that there would be blind
pigs that would be as bad as saloons. 1t
would be impossible for the blind pigs to
be as bad as saloons, because quiet and
secrecy are indispensable to them; but the
st. Paul prohibition district Is not much
like the Minneapolis patrol limits If blind
pigs flourish in 1t. With the right kind
Of mayor. st. Paul would have little
trouble In keeping out the blind pigs.

HUNTING THE GIANT TORTOISE.
A Scientific Exploration in Charge of Chas.
NJ. Harris.

A Scientific Exploration in Charge of Chas.
NJ. Harris.
The May number of The Wide World
Magazine contains an illustrated article on
ssIIunting the Giant Tortoise" 1t tells the
story of an expedition sent by the Hon
Walter Rothschild of London to the Gala
pagos Islands in quest of the last survivors
of a prehistoric race OF monster tOrtoises.
The expedition was in charge of Charles
NJ. Harris, formerly of this city, a grandson
of the late Hon. A. &. Jewett. The expe-
dition started in March, 1897, from New
York via the ISthmus of Panama, but the
members all succumbed to yellow fever ex-
cept Mr.. Harris and George Nelson, an as
sistant. They went to San Francisco, where
Mr.. Nelson left the work, but Mr.. Harris
organized new party, chartered sailing
vessel and started anew. The Galapagos
Islands lie directly under the equator, 900
miles west of the coast of South America.
There are about a dozen of the islands, but
only two or three are inhabited. They be-
inhabited chiefly by outlawed convicts from
Ecuador. The islands are supposed to con-
tain the only living specimens of the giant
tortoise in the world. The work of collect
ing the tortOiSes was arduOuS, as the cOun-
try is mountainous and the animals live in
the most inaccessible parts. Some were
taken from the craters of extinct volcanoes
The tortoises weigh from 200 to 400 pounds,
and must be handled with great skill and
care, as changes of temperature, food, ETC.,
often prove fatal. The expedition arrived
in San Francisco, Feb. 8, 1898, with 60 living
tortoises, having covered 1900 miles by
water in the quest for the monsters. A
number of the animals were sent to Mr..
Rothschild for his collection in Tring Park,
London, and the remainder were placed in
the collection of Mr.. Frank B. Webster of
Hyde Park, Mass. Another expedition has
since visited the islands and secured few
specimens.

A dove came in an open window and flew
about the court room when the Brown-Wil-
son case was on trial.
F. T. Wilson, Esq, and Deputy Sheriff f.
W. Ellis each treated the members of the
bar, court officials, etc., to cigars.
The session Friday afternoon was the
shortest on record. Attorneys who were
to have a hearing failed to arrive in the
city and the crier opened and closed the
court without sitting down.
In the regular panels of the traverse jul
ries the man whose name appeared first on
the list was chosen foreman of the first
jury, and the last one impaneled on the sec
ond jury was made foreman. The drawn
jury on the Brown-WilSon case was equally )
divided between the two juries.
A member of the Waldo County Bar was
obliged to go to dinner bare-headed Friday.
He laid his hat on the table in the library
