TRICKS OF THE BRAIN.

When we turned the corner we saw
precisely what he had described, and
yet he had never seen or heard or read
of the place. The dull brain theory
fails here, since neither lobe OF the
brain had received an impression Of
the place before we turned the corner.
Jean jacques Rousseau in his Con
fessions'' says he foresaw in a reverle
while taking solitary walk all the
incidents Of the hapniest day of his Ifs
as they occurred eight years later:
II saw myself, as in an ecstasy,
transported into that happy time and
occasion, where my heart, possessing
oil the happiness possible, enjoyed 1t
with inexpressible raptures, without
thinking of anything sensual. do not
remember being ever thrown into the
future with more force or an illusion
so complete as that which l then ex-
perlenced. What struck me most in
the recollection Of that reyerie, now
that it has been realized, is TO have
found objects so exactly as had pic
tured them. If ever the dream of
man awake had the air of a prophetic
vision that was assuredly SUCH
1t is, think, noteworthy that in ali
clalrvoyant cases of this kind the body
is through overwork or i'll health or
fasting or congenitally in the subdued
state to which the Indian mystic and
miracle monger reduces his own by
maceration. 1t was so with Scott and
Rousseau, and with William Hone
when he had the following experience
recorded in his memoir. When worn

London where he had never been be-

A FUNNY GAME.
Seeing tn. Full Moon often Fool.
the Little Girls,


Here is a funny game to play:
Stand facing girl and say to her,
You can't make the same motions l
am going TO make"
Then she will say, Just see If ]
can't"
Now do this: Put your left hand for
ward, point the forefnger toward your
face and make a circle around your
face with 1t, saying, II see the full
moon"
Next point at each eye and say,
Two eyes," then touch your nose,
saying, "A nose;;" then touch your
mouth and say, "And a mouth"
Now let your arm fall and tell the
girl to do exactly as you did and say
what you said.
The point is this: She will be sure to
do all the motions with her right hand
instead of her left.
And you can promptly say, mo; you
didn't do 1t right" She will ask you to
go through the motions again and very
likely will use her right hand again.
But suppose she is left handed? She
will naturally use her left hand and
get the trick right. So you should tell
her, well, you can't do it again." and
be sure to use your right hand when
you show her again. When she tries to
do as you did she will most likely use
her left hand, and so you can say,
You're wrong this time"
This trick amuses everybody.

MORA HAS BAD FIRE
A Fire Destroys $4,000 Worth of
Property South of the Track
Tuesday Night.
Twelve Business Structures Burn.
Insurance $22, oOo.-Burnt
District to be Rebuilt,

The village of Mora was visited by
the fire fiend last Tuesday night and
when the flames had finished their
work of destruction they had licked
up property to the value of about
$40. 900. The fire caught about 1880 in
the evening in bakery located on the
west side of the block south of the
railroad track and in few minutes
the building was ablaze and the fire
was making such Roadway that moth
ing could be done to stay the flames.
1t did not take but a short time to
destroy all the buildings, twelve in
number on the west side of the street,
and it was an early hour in the morn
ing when the citizens of Mora finished
fighting the fire.
The property destroyed was part
of the old business portion of Mora
and consisted of frame buildings, but
many of the merchants lost valuable
stocks of goods. The total insurance
on the property destroyed is placed at
S22: 900. The burnt district will all
be rebuilt.

Death of Mrs. Fred schimminp

Mrs. Agnes Schimming, wife of Fred
Schimming, died at the Northwestern
hospital at three O'Clock last Tuesday
morning. She was taken to the hos
pital week ago for treatment but at
that time was in very serious condi-
ton, as she was suffering from acute
Bright's disease and which at that
time had affected her whole system.
She had been unconscious for some
time. There was little hope of her
recovery when she was taken to the
hospital.
The funeral will be held at the home
of William Schimming on Friday fore
noon at 10 O'Clock and at the German
Lutheran church in Princeton at II
O'Clock, Rev. Geo. Stamm officiating
at the house and the church. The in
terment will be at the German Luth-
eran cemetery. near Oak Knoll.
Mrs. Schimming's folks live near
Delano, MINI. She was twenty-six
years of age and leaves husband
and four little children to mourn her
untimely death.

Monticello Defeated.

The ball game last Sunday between
the Monticello nine and the Princeton
first nine was not what a thorough
going and enthusiastic ball crank
would have called good game.
There were errors enough on both
sides to have made an ordinary scorer
very tired but the honors in this re-
spect were about evenly divided.
Both teams have done much better
playing in their day and should have
done better last Sunday. The game
went to Princeton by score of eleven
to five. The visitors went in and made
their record when they were fresh and
after brief engagement at the bat
they failed to do any better than make
the five. Princeton boys had trouble
in keeping the bat away from the balls
sent in from the man down where the
twirlers do not grow and it was hit
'em Johnny on the spot about as fast
as the boys cared to. Cravens and
Hill were the battery for the Prince
ton team, while tall Pratt of thinner
man stood up like a sentinel at Port
Arthur and gave very good satisfac-
ton.

A Compromise Verdict.

G. A. Dickey returned from Duluth
last week where he was in attendance
at the United States court representing
the Dablo Warehouse Co. in the suit
brought against the company by j.
r. Greenless of Leavenworth, Kansas.
who sued for $4,000 for the alleged
failure of the company to deliver a
certain amount of potatoes on a con-
tract which it was claimed was made
with Manager Larson of the company.
The case was tried in short time
and Judge Morris instructed the jury
to bring in verdict for plaintiff if it
was of the opinion that the manager
OF the company had the power to make
contract of the character it was al
legged was made. If on the other hand
the jury was to find that the company
did not legally make the contract and
that the manager had no authority to
make any such contract then verdict
should be brought in for defendant.
But the jury did no such thing. 1t
made compromise verdict and gave
the palintiff the sum of So, 500, just
half what he sued for.

OF the Princeton roller mill, is think

is very good field for an enterprise
OF this character in Princeton. His
father is connected with one of the
large foundries of Pittsburg, and Mr..
Hutchinson is an expert in the ma
chine and pattern making line as we'll

kinds of small business enterprises

Two Old Settlers.

Samuel Miller's father of St. Fran

Miller's brother, b. T. Miller of
.Anoka spent Sunday with him, return
ing home Monday. The elder Miller
was one of the first settlers at St.
Francis and located there in October,
1866, having made that place his home
ever since. Since his wife died a few
years ago he has been visiting some
with his children, but he calls St.
Francis his home and expects to until
he gets through here. One of his old
;neighbors in early days was William
Newbert, the father of Henry Newbert.

arriving here late Saturday night after
Rev. Gratz had made arrangements
for union services at the Congrega-

asked Rev. Henderson to preach the
sermon which he did. The result was
that there was good congregation at

services in the evening there was a
good attendance and Mr.. Eastman
gave very interesting talk on the
history and growth of the Y. M. c..

listed for three purposes-physical
mental and spiritual development, and
he told of the work the associations
in the different cities were doing and
the great help they were to all young

tunities they offer to elevate and in
