ALEXANDER RAMSEY DEAD.
The First Governor OF Minnesota Passes
Away at n Ripe Old Age, Sur
rounded by Friends and
Family.

st. Paul, April 23.-Alexander Ram
sey, aged 80, pioneer and first governor
of the territory Of Minnesota, died at
his residence, 265 Exchange street, St.
Paul, shortly after o'clock last even
ing.
His death, while not wholly unfor-
seen, in view of his extreme age, and
his illness since February last, was un-
expected, and will come as shock to
the large number of friends whom he
had gathered about him in this city, as
well as to the people of Minnesota, to
whom he was known during long
and honorable public career.
Alexander Ramsey was born in Har-
risburg, Pa, Sept. 8. 1915.
His father was of Scotch descent, his
mother came from a German family
who settled in Pennsylvania early in
the Eighteenth century, From his
parents he inherited strong constitu-
ton and also taste for study.
He was appointed territorial govern
or Of Minnesota by President Taylor.
This was in 1s4o. Mr.. Ramsey left at
once for St. Paul arriving there May
II, 1s49, and four days later after the
arrival of the other territorial officers
he issued a proclamation declaring the
territory duly organized.
In the dining room of a small hotel
on the banks of the Mississippi river
the new governor read his first mes
sage to joint meeting of the mem
bers of boob houses, twenty-seven in
|all
In 1853 his term of office ended and
IN 1855 was elected mayor of St. Paul.
In 1858, when Minnesota was admitted
to the union, Mr.. Ramsey was nomi-
mated for governor by the republican
party, but was not elected. Two years
later he was again nominated and this
time elected.
Sept. 10, 1915, Gov. Ramsey was mar
red to Miss Anna Earl jerks, daugh-
ter Of Judge jerks of Pennsylvania.

A great many women suffer with q

seem to restore. the patients normal
condition.

is kind of dyspepsia that is caused;
by arrangement of the female organ,

ton, cannot be relieved without a
medicine which not only acts as

A Hou.e-C1eaninx Carol.

The melancholy days have come-vhe
saddest Of the year;
The carpet is on the clotheSline, and in
cessant whacks we hear;
The bedding's in the kitchen, and the
beds are in the hall,
The pictures are upon the floor while
some one dusts the wall;
We eat cold meat and crackers from a
wabbly kitchen chair,
For this is glad housekeeping time-so
free from toll and care.
The neighbors line their windows and a
hasty census take
Of all the bric-a-brac we have, and calcu-
lations make
If it was bought with ready cash, or on
the installment plan;
We rescue our provisions from the hasty
garbage man,
And life is gay and careless like it makes
one want to roam
To HE away-because the folks are
cleaning house at home.
The melancholy days are here-the days
of soap and brush.
Steve polish daubs the tableware-the
bat pie on Wagner's bust
Piano holds some frying pans-the bath
tubs filled with books
The women folks-ah who could tell
who they were by their looks!
Sing hey! The glad housekeeping time
the time of dust and soap!
IL LIS a gladstone sight to see-through a
big telescope.
