human and dumb brute creation.
1t is hard to conceive of a man devoid
of this parental affection to an extent
that he would leave two of his little
children out all night in storm, and
knowing that they had became lost,
but according to reliable reports this
is what Marcus Brynulson who lives in
the town of Glendorado did last Thurs
day night. The parents sent their lit
tie girl six years of age and a little boy
four years of age after the COWS about
dusk, and after the children had been
gone some time the COWS came home
but the children were not with them.
The mother started to look for the
children at once and was joined by the
father when he had finished milking.
The neighbors we're not notified and
| after searching in vein until nearly
midnight the parents gave up the
search and went home, much against
the mothers wish. In the morning
they managed to tell some of the neigh
bors and soon a large searching party
started to look for the children, and
about ten o'clock in the forenoon they
were found not great ways from the
| house. There were no houses near and
the children remained out exposed to
the elements all night. When found
they we're chilled through from expo
sure and were in a pitable condition.
The little boy had become tired and ex-
austed and had fallen down and gone tc
sleep. His sister had tried to shield
the little fellow as much as possible.
There is considerable feeling in the
nei borhood over the affair.

Wall Street and the West.

We are repeatedly assured by east

money to move it's crops. Small thanks
to the east! The money which will
come west for crop moving is that of

"help out'' the ever-needy east. The

A Brilliant Scheme.

Some amusement and good deal of
unfavOrable comment has been caused
by the visit paid last Monday by party
of State officials to the hospitals for the
insane at St. Peter. The party con-
sisted of James Martin of the board OF
control who acted as chaperon; Gov
ernor VanSant taken along presumably
to lend an air OF responsibility and i'm.
portance to the affair; Labor Commits.
sioner O'Donnell, Dairy Commissioner
Mcconnell, and the secretary of the
live stock sanitary board, DR.. S. H.
Ward.
The real object of the visit is not
given out, but the public has been in.
formed that it was for the purpose oil

tai officials named. 1t is not asserted
that they had any legitimate business
there, as that would entail proving that
the insane patients are working people,
mich COWS or live stock, and even the
cheapest of politicians would hesitate
before adding any burden to the mis-
fortue of the insane
1t is freely alleged, however, that
the visit is a part of brilliant political
scheme, entirely original with the JAM
ison-Martin third term boomers, for
using the power of the board of control
for their own political purposes, and, if
successful, anyone who remembers the
influence welded by the State institu-
tions year or two ago when they and
their friends we're fighting the board
of control bill in the legislature, will
realize that with good management
and some luck an exceedingly power
full and dangerous political machine
might be constructed.
In the hands of unscrupulous and sell
fish politicians, such machine would
be menace and a danger to the State,
and would enable it's maniplators to re-
tain their hold on the public offices for
an indefinite period.-Duluth Herald.

country.
Upon the Southern farm the negro
is constantly surrounded and safe
guarded by influences which tend to
protect him against the temptations to
which his weak and credulous nature
is peculiarly subject. There he is
strengthened encouraged and sup
ported by close daily contact with a
superior race. which bears for him a
sincere and genuine friendship and
sympathy, and whom he respects,
loves, initiates and sometimes essays to
emulate. Whatever in the way of i'm
provement he has achieved in the past
and 1t has not been inconsiderable-
has been almost entirely achieved in
these circumstances and surroundings
Take the negro from the farm,
carry him to the great city, place him
in the factory, organize him into labor
unions, and his individuality, which
at the best is small and weak, will be
destroyed; his identity will become
merged in the cGEppon mass and his
strong tribal propensities will under
mine and supplant many of the virtues
which are now his best and most
valuable assets, and it will be a mar
vel if his last state is not worse than
his first: IL, in attempting to avoid the
enormously supposed Scylla of his
present position he is not stranded

the speech of Senator Simmons:

for that negro who came up from slav-
cry and founded the Tuskegee Insti-

Savage Attack Upon Hicks Charac-

Savage Attack Upon Hicks Charac-
ter Made by His Widow.
Augusta, May 20.-In the trial of the
Hicks will case to-day, there was a
savage attack on the character of the
dead man.
Henry H. Hicks ran a small store
and barroom on the western suburbs
of Augusta before the development of
the town set in in that direction. He
bought up a considerable lot of land
around his home and store, and when
the mill district added population and
value to his section, ''Hicksville" be-
came quite a little principality MAX
ing its owner worth from $4,000 to
100000.
He was a sporting character, and
by reason of his prominence among
the people around, was elected to rep
resent his ward in Council. He was
dissolute in his habits and figured in
occasional unsavory episodes in the
tenderloin, in which on more than one
occasion, his wife took part with
cowhide. In making his will, he did
not give his wife as large a share of
his estate as she feels should have
been hers, and she is attacking his
mental condition at the time the will
was made.
In the trial in the Superior Court to-
day testimony was introduced to es-
tablish the facts briefly outlined above,
and Hicks was held up as a moral de-
generate and a physical and mental
wreck. The case will occupy several
days.

to be considered an official publication

pears at the foot of one of the ex-

in explanation to the effect that the
above note was dictated late at
night to the British and Italian am
bassadors and the German minister
and by them cabled to their respective
governments. The diplomats concern
ed objected to the word dictated"
because they felt the inference might
be drawn that they were taking in
structions from Venezeulas plenipo-
tertiary.

cases the absent mind is a distinct

evil, but In many cases 1t becomes
curse.

Gov ernor on for New Orleans.
Gov. Terrell, accompanied by fifty
four of his staff, left the city this
afternoon shortly after o'clock for
New Orleans to attend the Confed-

occupied two special Pullman cars, and
carried also baggage car.
1t was found impossible to get a
sufficient number of horses for all the
colonies in New Orleans so a dozen
will be shipped from Bay st. Louis and
about twenty from Mobile. In this
way sufficient horses were secured for
all the colonies. They will ride in the
parade on Friday afternoon at the head
of the Georgia division.
Col George I. Cam and Lieut.. Col
Noble Jones of Savannah accompanied
the party.
Gov. Terrell stated before leaving
that one of the principal reasons why
he consented to go to New Orleans was
to make a speech urging the veterans
to hold their next reunion in Savannah.
He seemed to regret very much that
Savannah had decided not to ask for

the Jews in Russia, was denounced as
a fabrication and a pack of untruths.
Quotations were read from the laws
of Russia to show that the Jews were
not allowed to own land or to till it,
and it was strenuously denied that
usury had anything to do with the re-

MANY UPS AND DOWNS.

IT notice." said a visitor in Savannah
yesterday, that In walking from
Broughton street to Forsyth Park, on
Bull street, one has to step up and
down about forty times. The little
squares that trip in at frequent inter-
walls in the journey, the frequent re-
currence of alleys, or lanes, one after
each street, l believe, and as a conse-
quence. short blocks make the journey
a succession Of ups and downs. Then
there is a diversity of sidewalks that
is not altogether pleasant-even on
this fashionable promenade there is no
uniformity and the pedestrian Is
actually treated much worse than the
horses. 1t might be urged the rich
can ride in chaises,' that they own the
city, pay the taxes, etc. But all that
sort of argument is out of date. The
rich like to walk, many of them, and
/ doubt not they would be glad II the
plan adopted in arranging the APP
proach to some of the squares was
general. In this particular instance
the concrete walk through the square
is graded down to meet the asphalt of
the roadway, and the stroller does
neither have to step up nor down, but
simply changes from a white to a
black walkway. When he reaches the
street corner, however, he must step
up, at least six or eight inches. Not
much, you may say, but in the walk
from the business street to the park II
amounts to climbing about to the third
floor of a house.
Not only is the unnecessary exertion
noticed, but it breaks into conversa-
tion and almost destroys the walk of
the population. BY that / mean the
gait, carriage or bearing of those who
walk. A steady, easy, smooth swing
Is impossible, because it must be
