HAIR TELLS CHARACTER
Color of Hair Said to Indicate Per.

Many people believe that blonde or light hair denotes affection and dark hair cOnstrncy, a person without hair is not devoid of character; far from it. The disposition of the av rage bald headed man is to show such SOlicitude for the welfare Of others, that he neg feet himself A germ causes badness. Prot.

NO TIME TO QUIT

The Nome Nugget, of which Col J' E. A. Strong, than whom no editorial writer in the great west is more able is the editor, is making an heroic fight for the extension of American prinei- ples of government to Alaska, and he is thoroughly convinced that the present is no time to be discouraged or to cease in the fight. The Nugget, comment ing upon the situation, says;
 Because the congress of the United States failed to give Alaska delegate and refused to recognize our rights to govern ourselves, there is no reason why Alaskans should be discouraged. All the territories which have reached the dignity of statehood have neeeSSar- ily passed through all the formative stages before the goal was reached. Alaska has been rebuHed many times and with each rebutT taxation has been increased rather than lesSened, but somehow, in spite of it all, the territory has steadily, if slowly, forged to the front. Alaska in time will get a dele gate in congress. perhaps two or three. In time the people will have the priyI- lege of enacting legislation for them selves and suitable to the needs and conditions of the country. This time can be materially haStened by the peo- ple of Alaska themselves. The Sentl- ment in favor of seli-gOyernment can be tostered and encouraged. Only the tories-the selt.reekiug interested in- diyidusIs, who put self and selfish IT, terests against everything else-are now opposed to it. The actual bona 6de residents of Alaska are almost a unit in its favor. The tory opposition is back by the foreign corporations, largely dominant in Southeastern Alas, ks. But their grip will eventually be broken and Alaskans will come into their own and they can hasten the time by acting in concert. Let the clamor' ing and demands for representation tr conoress and for territorial government never cease until their righteous de
 mands are granted. '

FOOLED THE LANDLADY.
How Some Boarders Captured a Wood
Thief Last Night.

From Ihursday1s daily.
The young gentlemen boarders at a
house on Fourth street played practical
joke upon the landlady last evening
It had been reported that woman had
stolen some of her wood, and the board
ers arranged with one of their number to
dress up as woman and go into the
wood shed and take an armful of wood,
and be discovered by the others, who
should notify the landlady. The plan was
put into effect last night, and worked
to perfection
One of the boarders ran in and said
that woman was stealing some wood
from the woodshed, and the landlady and
the other boarders FASTENED to the wood
she'd The supposed woman dropped the
armful of wood and ran away, with the
other boarders after her, encouraged by
the lady of the house, who directed them
to bring the woman back, saying that
she would, notify the police and have
her locked up. Presently the boarders
brought the culprit back, and the land
landy then discovered that it was one
of her own boarders, wearing a skirt,
hat and shawl. She enjoyed the laugh
that followed.

industries, which she did not think was
as prosperous as it ought to be.
T. B. Murtaugh of Tracy, who will
move back to his former home at Madi-
son Lake next week, told of the order
in Blue Earth county, etc.
City Attorney c. o. Daley, who was
member of the class that had just
been initiated, made some humorous re-
marks that caused laugh.
M. j. Cuddy, former county presi-
dent, recounted the early history of
the order in Blue Earth county, in an
interesting manner. He was one of the
first members and told from experience
the struggle to organize division No. l
in Mankato in 1899, and division No. 2
in Madison Lake in 1890.
Short speeches were made by half a
dozen other members, and after that
the young people took possession of the
floor and the piano, and the older ones
had social chat. The affair did not
break up until nearly four o'clock this
morning.
At intervals throughout the evening,
John F. Gehan of st. Paul delighted the
audience with selections on the piano and
choice Irish ballads and melodies that
were well received.

TURNER'S NARROW ESCAPE.
Wells Hotel Man Walks Out of a
Room lust in Time.

From Thursdays Daily.
Landlord Turner of the Park hotel
had narrow escape from being badly
if not fatally injured yesterday morning.
He has small hot water heater in the
basement under his living rooms, which
heats couple of sample rooms adjoining,
and the living rooms above. 1t seems
that the water in the pipes had frozen
during the night, and when fire was
started yesterday morning, the heater
and the pipes exploded, wrecking the
room quite badly. Mr.. Turner had been
looking at the heater and had left the
room not two minutes before the ex-
plosion took place, to get shovel. The
force of the explosion knocked the plas-
ter off the wall in room adjoining, as
well as the. room where the explosion
occurred, and the windows and doors of
the room were blown out.-Wells

HENRY LENERTZ HURT.
Knocked Down BY Lot Of Cattle and
Stamped Upon.
From Thursdays Daily.

Henry Lenertz, an employee in the Lang
butcher shop, is still confined to his
home at 722 North Front street, suffering
from an injury he received last Saturday
night while loading cattle into a car in
the North Western yards near the pump
ins station. Lenertz was driving the
cattle up the chute into the car when a
train backed into and struck this cat
tie car. Lenertz was at that time stand
ing in the chute, as no run boards had
been provided on the outside of the chute
as they should have been. The cattle
took fright and stampeded out of the
car and down the chute, knocking
Lenertz down and trampling upon him.
He suffered very bad rupture.
A claim agent of the Northwest
yesterday offered Lenertz $500 as basis
of settlement. Lenertz would accept no
less than $500. The matter may get
into court.

and injured the igaments of one hip
joint, and inficting other bruises. Mrs.

such force that the strongest people had
about all they could do to keep their
footing. When found she seemed to be
in dazed state; the snow and dirt were
drifting over her yet she had been there
but few moments. Her daughter-in-

step out, but as she went into another
part of the house did not think but that
her mother -in-law had come right back;
however, in few moments began the
search for her, resulting as we have
stated. At present, she is doing well for
one of her age.-Lake Crystal Union.

PEEKED AT THE "DOINGs. .
Woman Sees the EIk's Lodge lnitia-
tory Ceremonies.
From Thursdays Daily.

From Thursdays Daily.
Seattle, Wash, Jan. 2s-A woman has
forced upon the lodge of the Elks at
Ballard, suburb of Seattle, the pc
culiar alternative of admitting her to
the sacred precincts of Elkdom or ac-
knowledging that she is in reality a full
grown Elk, though she is not member
of the lodge. The reason is that the
woman, Mrs. Inez King, wife of drug
gist, E. II. King, has seen the initiation
of fifty Elks, and has overheard through
an open window the ritual and forms,
until she knows all the ceremonies by
heart. a, D
| Mrs. King lives in the second story Of
a building separated by few feet from
the Elk lodgeroom in another building.
When her husband was initiated, Mrs.
King became too curious to restrain
her impulse to bridge the narrow space
with board. She stood on this board
watching the ceremonies and all the
doings in the lodgeroom whenever the
lodge met for a period of eight months.
The husband was the most mystifed of
all as he learned of his wife's know
ledge. He returned wise smile to her
but he soon found that she knew as
much about his own initiation as he
did.
cit was just as joke that did it,"
said Mrs. King. 81 didn't mean any
harm by it, but could not bear to let
my husband know all the secrets of the
lodgeroom without I knew them, too.
It was so easy, to put board across to
the opposite window sill that could not
help it. I memorized all the ritual and
I know all the signs and grips as well
as any Elk. They must either make me
an Elk or recognize me as an honorary
member"
