LUTHERAN COLLEGE GETS $4,000
Synodical Meeting at Sleepy Eye
is Very Liberal.

Friday afternoon at the SynOdical
conference which has been in session
at Sleepy Eye for the past week a vote
was taken on the question whether or
not there should be an appropriation
made for the necessary building de-
manded by DR.. Martin Luther college
at this place and there was not dis
senting vote.
The synod voted the full amount
asked for. 81 600. This sum will be
used for the purpose Of erecting a
dwelling for the use Of some member
Of the faculty. At present part of the
college buildingis being used for living
rooms. This will be vacated as soon
as the new building is completed and
remodeled for school purposes, the
attendance at the school having in
creased to the extent that more room
is demanded.
TherOll call of ministers,an teachers
and the announcement of lay delegates
showed that there were present at the
firstsession sixty-five ministers, fifteen
teachers and forty lay delegates. The
number was largely increased at the
opening of the session on the second
day and continued large throughout.
Reports were read on the work of
the church and several church insti-
buttons, among them being DR.. Martin
Luther college and the Indian mission
in Arizona. The reports of the presi-
dent and treasurer were also pre-
sented. The treasurer's report shows
the income during the past year by
voluntary contribution to have been
over $4,000. The expenses were
approximately $1,000. All the funds
of the synod are in good order. This
is the largest annual income in the
history Of the synod.

Bacon and the Fish ers

In "Aubrey's Lives" this quaint story,
is told Of Lord Bacon His lordship,
being in the garden looking on fishers
as they were throwing their netts, asked
them what they would take for their
catch. They answered so much. His
lordship would offer them not more,
but SO much. They drew up their nett,
and in it We're only two or three little
fishes He then told them it had been
better for them to have taken his offer.
They replied they hoped for better
draft, but, said his lordship, Hope is
good breakfast, but an i'll supper :"

MANKATO JUBILEE DRAWS CROWD
Many New Ulm Foresters Attend
Fiftieth Anniversary.

Some two hundred members of the
Forester order of this city attended the
Golden Jubilee celebration that was
held in Mankato Sunday. They had
with them the Second Regiment band
to furnish music and went down to
enjoy themselves.
In order to get to the city at all Sun
day SO as to be there for the principle
part of the celebration 1t was necessary
for them to get up at the unseemly hour
Of O'Clock in the morning, but this
did not interfere with their enthusiasm
and the entire crowd was there when
the time came to fall in line.
Had it not been for the storm Of the
previous evening and the prospect of
rain Sunday there would have been
twice as many people in the excursion,
and it is something of a wonder that
as many went as did go considering
the circumstance.
The Jubilee was success, and the
Catholic people of Mankato have
reason to feel proud Of the great in
terest that was taken in the affairs of
the order that was behind the move
ment, and the completeness of the de-
tails that went into the arrangements.
The Second Regiment band won
much praise for the music it furnished
and the splendid appearance it made,
and the Mankato papers speak highly
of the organization

THE KALLIMA BUTTERFLY.
An Insect That Perfectly Initiates
Dead Tree Leaf.

Dead Tree Leaf.
A moth usually rests with his fore
wings outspread over the prominent
pattern of his hind wings, says Waldo
mar &. Kaempffert in the Booklovers
Magazine. In any other posture he
would inevitably meet swift death
A butterfly, on the contrary. rests uSu-
ally with his wings uplifted and
pressed together. Otherwise, the gaudy
upper surface would be as cOnSpicu-
GUS as the black ink on this white
Daper-a signal for attack by relent
less and voracious foes. In order to
hide himself the butterfly has, there
fore, lavished all the resources of his
initiative art on the under surface of
his wings. By far the most astonish-
ing instance of this kind is afforded
by the East Indian Kallima butterfly,
the blue upper surface of which is
richly and OstentatiOusIy adorned with
stripe Of orange, but the under sur
face of which bears a truly staggering
likeness to leaf, when the wings are
drawn together. Here we have an
IASecI tudI apes uOL mercy the ap-
proXimate shape and color of a dead
leaf, but also the midrib with the deli
cate veining, the sharp point, and the
short stem common to many tropical
leaves.
It might be supposed that this imita-
ton of an ordinary object is sufficiently
minute to protect the kallima from it's
enemies. Self preservation apparently
demands not merely dead leaf sim
ulated, but in touches even more eX-
QuiSite, for the resemblance has been
SO craftily carried out that the light
leaf fecked with parasitic growths,
stained and spotted to give the appear
ance Of holes eaten by caterpillars.

Mail Carriers For SIeepY Eve.

Postmaster Buelow was this week
advised by the fourth assistant post
master general that an order had been
issued for the establishment Ofcity mail
delivery for Sleepy Eye on September
l. The early settlement Of this matter
is highly pleasing to the postmaster
since it was generally supposed that it
would take a much longer time to Sc
cure this service.
The civil service commission will
now organize civil service board
which will hold examinations for the
positions to bef lied here, two carriers
and one substitute, and the appoint
ments will be made from those who
successfully pass the examination.

When [ was chunk of boy | shot
a horned owl, the spread of whose
wings was four and one-half feet, and,
to the surprise of the boy who had car
ried it for several miles, the weight
was only four pounds. They were
rather numerous at that time in that
section of the country and were trou-
blesome about carrying off chickens,
which mostly roasted in apple trees
about the farm buildings. The belief
that they could carry away full grown
hens was a common one. 1t was also
commonly believed that an owl never
picked chicken off the roost, but,
ahght1ng on the limb, crowded the
chicken off and as it flew toward the
ground caught it on the wing.-Forest
