HEAVEN AND EARTH is. the name
of new publication at Auburn.
Wonder if the management will do
away with the "devil" and the ;hell-
box" the two Indispensable ad.
juncts to the average print shop.
IF the ranges will apportion the
political spoils among residents of
Mesaba and Vermilion range points
they can this year elect complete
county ticket. Ofcourse, as a mere
matter of courtesy, one of the minor
offices might be tossed off to the
Democratic community at the south
end of the county. -.
THE new village of Nashwauk, &C.
cording to the News Tribune, is
soon to have newspaper, Editor
Kiley, of the Grand Rapids Herald,
being the intrepid spirit who is ac>
credited as being behind the enter
prise. Nashwauk is thriving in
FAINT, with a substantial backing,
and a newspaper at that point
would doubtless find a fair field.

A writer in Claw Notes, % speaking of the late John MacMahon, says: Mac MahOn's style was painfully heavy, his utteranCe a little thick, and he was en- tlrely devoid of humor. His hearing at times was not Of the best, and for that reason he thought 1t was the best poll cy to agree with any remark that might be made by the judge before whom he was appearing, even though he did not happen to hear what had been said On one occasion he was appearing be fore a master of the rolls, who thought that MacMah0n was arguing rather elementary law for such a court as his You are speaking as if were a mere tyro in the law, Mir.

The chemical effects of the different colored rays vary greatly. Red, vel low and green are practically inert as bleaching agents. while blue, violet and ultra violet rays have a most powerful chemical action. This fact explains why materials which are usually worn at night. and hence are exposed only to gas or candle light do not fade rapidly, these ulumlnants not having a preponder- auce of the blue and violet rays, while sunlight, which contains a large propor- ton of these chemically active rays, quickly affects Colored fabrics.

eueer Customs In China.

A feature in the life of the Celestial when at home, says the author of "So' cicty In China" is the number of itin- erant craftsmen who earn their iveli- hood on the street Almost anything from the mcud,ug of a broken rice bowl to the most elaborate cue dress ing may be obtained of one or another of these street travellers. Blacksmiths carry the implements of their trade about with them, the bellows so con- structed as to serve also the purpose of a tool box and a seat when "ofr duty. If a mans jacket or shoes need repair Ing he may hail passing tailor or coJbler and possibly employ the time while waiting with the services of an itiuerant barber.

DEPoRTED MINERS RETURN.
Defled Victor Court Authorities
Anxiety Over Their Safety.

VICTOR, Col. July T.-Considerable anx-
iety is felt here for the safety of five men
who were deported from this district by the
military but who have returned within
the last week
The men were placed under arrest by the
civil authorities as soon as it was learned
that they had defied the orders given them
at the time of their deportation. They
were kept under guard at hotel until last
night. when two deputy sheriffs started
presumably to escort them out of the camp.
AT point west of the city. near the Santa
Rita mine, the deputies were suddenly con-
fronted by half dozen masked men, who
were heavily armed. The prisoners were
taken from the deputies. also were
their guns. and they were ordered to return
to town. This order they obeyed. short
distance from the point where the masked
men first appeared the deputies saw a large
band of other masked men, numbering, they
estimate. at least fifty.
Immediately on returning to the city the
deputies told the sheriff 3 office and the
military headquarters of their experience.
Details of troops were sent out to search
for the kidnapped men, and Sheriff Edward
Bell also headed posse In pursuit. The
pursuing parties returned to this city af-
ter several hours frutless search. The
hunt was resumed at daylight by the mill
tary.

NEW JERSEY DESERTS.
Opposition to Parker Apparently Less
Than Third pf Convention.

ST. LOUIS. July f7,-The lieutenants Of
David B. Hill worked today with con-
hdence Of sure victory, Senator Hill rettsr
ated his statement that he was making
no attempt to, nominate. Judge Parker ON
the first ballot 1t was sufficient to know,
he said. that Parker would be easily nomi-
mated without Creating friction by shutting
out favorite sons d, All the candidates
should be presented. to the convention and
voted for on the first ballot. he argued. and
that will probably besthe course pursued.
The fact that New Jersey this morning
finally voted to cast its vote for Parker
however. made 1t apparent that Mr.. HIPS
program may be shattered for that course
left the opposition with apparently less
than third Of the convention on the first
ballot
At Tammany's headquarters Mr.. Murphv
said that he still believed Judge Parker
could not be nominated. 1t was said that
the opposition had agreed to concentrate on
Mcclellan Of New York. Mr.. Murphy said:
Il cannot say as to that: but 1 am In the
same frame Of mind as yesterday and the
days previous as to the candidacy OF Judge
Parker
1t was said ebout the Hobbies that con-
centration on Mcclellan was being sug-
gested. Lut that only Missouri and Wiscorl-
SIN had shown any signs of assisting.
When the alleged concentration was told
