IN The WRONG HOUSE
Confused Individual Blunders Into a
Tenth St. House and Goes
to Bed.
He Admitted When Discovered thai
He Thought the Wall Paper
Looked Queer.

Few men with good intentions have
better realized how mortals are the
sport of fate than did Hal Jones and
Roy Pike at the Witching hour of 3
this morning.
In this connection it is proper to
note that the two young gentlemen
are not In the habit of being out until
so unearthly an hour and that the ex-
perience of the night would have been
something of an event in their lives
even had not the incident about to be
related made it a day, or a night, to
be marked with q white stone.
Messrs. Jones and Pike are num-
bered among the ushers at the For
sell-M GORE wedding at Plymouth
and fatiguing rehearsal, followed by
a trip to st. Paul with one of the
brides maids, landed them at the
Tenth street apartments shared by
Mr.. Jones and two young men OF no
consequence, at just 3 o'clock.
We'll have a bit to eat and then
you can go home in better frame OF
mind said Jones as he turned the
knob of his door.
A light was shining inside and the
young gentlemen were tired and q
little athirst, but the door did not
yield to any sort of persuasion and
Jones was disturbed. Must be those
idiotic friends of NINE" he said, and
| he woke them up and stated his case.
1--WE don't know nothing about 1t, :
said the ungrammatical friends, VINO
were not overly pleased at being
routed out at that hour. Lets In
vestigate."
And then ensued a rafting and
| bombardment of Jones' door which
promised to arouse the house but
nothing else; until Of q sudden the
key was turned, the door opened and
there, in the brilliant light OF the
| Welsbach, stood a slender gentleman
with handy legs, silk underwear AND
defiant red hair and burnsides.
"Washermatter with yu fellers, any

"what the deuce you doing In my

twelve votes were accorded to him, the
other three going to a Northsider
named George Hill. Ten votes are
necessary to fill a. vacancy on the
board, and as the Hill faction held like

on the North Side insists upon forcing

DR.. w. w. Folwell urged the cleo

he was one Of the best all-around park
men in the country and took a keen
interest in the Minneapolis parks. On
the first ballot Mr.. Loring had seven
votes Mr.. Hill had four votes and
w. f. Decker received one. The lat

APPRECIATE A GOOD THING
Crowd of shoppers at The New Store
To-day.

Crowd OF Shoppers at The New Store
To-day.
There was a futter about the silks
and dress goods counters Of The New
Store to-day. It is not often that
staple goods of such a character are
offered at such low prices, and the la
dies knew it. From the opening of
the doors till late in the afternoon, the
size Of the crowd varied but little.
People came and went, satisfied in the
certain knowledge that they were get
ting more than their moneys worth,
glad of the opportunity, and willing to
pass it on toetheir friends. They did
not ask the why or wherefore. but sim
ply taking it for granted that there
were good reasons for the almost un-
precedented offer, quickly made way
with what suited their particular taste
and need. There are SO many ques-
tionable sales Of different sorts con-
stantly going on turnout the country,
nowadays, that a really genuine offer,
serves to inspire confidence in peo-
ple's minds in the absolute reliability
of the house which makes the offer,
and acts as an incentive to more hon
est merchandising at large.

LIVES or MACEDONIAN eERFA.
Work Hard for Bare Living Under
Turkish Taskmasters.

A writer in an English magazine
gives the following picture Of the life
led by Macedonian PEASANTS: Il Wis
tied one village (Treska), only two
hours ride from Uskub, which was a
popul6us Christian community fifty
years ago, where the peasants owned
their own land. About the time when
we were putting oGr money on the
wrong horse in the Crimea some en-
terprising Turks swooped down on the
place, massacred one-half of the popu-
lation, settled in their cottages and
annexed the lands of the survivors. The
men OF the present generation hew
wood and draw water for the son of
the brigand of the sos, who is now a
notable magnate. He allows them one
half of the proceeds Of their labor on
the lands that were their fathers.
The peasants are serfs without leis-
ure, security or rights. There are,
roughly, about eighty days in the year
when no good Bulgarian will do much
in his fields-Sundays and the greater
saints days. The hey of Treska has
hit on the ingenious plan of forcing his
peasants to work for him in his pri-
vate fields On every one of these
eighty days. For this work he pays
no wages in money or kind and no
share OF the produce is allotted to the
laborer.'

know much about the Philippines to
breakfast with him at the Arlington a
day or two ago. so they might have 4
talk about the archipelago. The SEQ
rotary was absent-minded when be
came down stairs and he went to the
dining room and breakfasted alone.
Then he came out into the lobby and
found his two friends waiting.
Why, good morning." said the sec
rotary. Come right along to the Office
and We can talk matters over"
The two men thought this meant
thai the secretary wanted to have q
short talk with them before breakfast
and they wen along without protest.
When they reached the office they sat
down and talked until 2 o'clock. Then
the secretary thanked them and bade
them %good-by. Five minutes later two
hungry men dashed madly into the
nearest restaurant and ordered nearly
everything in sight. Next day Secre.
tar Root remembered and spent halt

and apoloeizing profucely.
