SKETCH OF JOHN STUART MILL
Philosopher Of Nervous and Irritable
DISPOSITION,

Disposition.
Describing his Impressions of John
Stuart Mill Sir Leslie Stephen says:
II heard him speak in the house Of
commons. Instead OF an impassive
philosopher l saw slight, frail figure.
trembling with nervous irritability
He poured out a series of perfectly
formed sentences with an extraordi-
nary rapidity, suggestive of learning
by heart, but when he lost the thread
Of his discourse closed his eyes for
two or three minutes till, after re-
gaining his composure, he could again
take up his parable. Although his
oratory was defective he was clearly
speaking with intense feeling and was
exceedingly sensitive to the reception
of his audience. Some of his doc
trines were specially irritating to
the rows of stolid country gentlemen
who began by listening curiously to
so strange an animal as a philosopher
and discovered before long that the
animals hide could be pierced by
scornful laughter. To Mill they rep
resented Grass stupidity and he be-
came unable either to conceal his
contempt or keep his temper"

Youngsters Vision Of Gold Mine
Proved to BE Correct.
For the purest piece Of luck In To-
eating a gold mine." says an old
miner, the case of a Dutchman in
Montana Is perhaps without equal.
The man had big family. and his
older children helped him In his
search for pay rock. The 10-year-old
daughter dreamed that by a certain
manzanita bush up on mountain
side was an opening into ledge Of
yellow, gold-bearing quartz.
"The old man paid no attention to
the girls talk. The girl told of the
same dream a week or SO later. Still
the old man paid no attention to her
prattle.
Papa said she one morning, I've
dreamed three times about that gold
mine up by the manzanita BUSH
"1he old man thought there might
be something in her dream. So he
and his boys hunted for days for q
crooked manzanita bush, such as the
girl described from her dreams.

picks and shovels and uncovered the

the time. Besides, married the girl

Sioux City, March 6.-The spring
rush of settlers from Iowa and Illinois
to the cheap farm lands of South Da-
kota has begun. Altho not yet at its
height the rush is now on by the train
load.
A train Of 35 cars, bearing a large
party of emigrants for the Dakotas
and all of their personal property
pulled into the Milwaukee yards at
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
There was nothing peculiar in the
appearance Of the train, which was
largely composed of box cars. until
the caboose at the end came into view
The scanty, dingy windows were
crowded with faces, large and small,
peering out to get a view Of the new
country into which they were moving.
Most of the emigrants are bound for
South Dakota, with a sprinkling ticket
ed for North Dakota. The train was
split up here, some of the party being
bound for the western part Of the state
and part for the northern. They left
the city in the afternoon as soon as
their trains were made up.
The Willmar and Sioux Falls railroad
took thru thirty-two cars Of emf
