FROM SATURDAY DAILY.
The only incident of not to break the
monotony of the democratic county con-
vention Saturday evening, for everybody
appeared to be in harmony with himself
if not with everybody else, was the NOM
nation of Philip Liesch for one of the
delegates to the democratic state con-
vention. One of the delegates who is
honest himself and thought everyone else
honest, seeing the portly form and radi-
ant face of Liesch near him, named him
for one of the delegates in the belief that
no one but democrat would be sitting
among the delegates in a convention of
democrats; and the joke, instead of be-
ing on the mistaken democrat, was real
ly on Liesch, for he consented to the
nomination without protest New Ulm

Washout North Of Waseca was
Serious One.

From Tuesdays Daily.
The washout on the Minneapolis & st.
Louis road north of Waseca, recorded by
the Free Press yesterday, was worse
than first reports seemed to indicate. An
engine and eighteen cars were ditched
and the water washed out the track back
of the train, SO that assistance could not
reach it. The road was obliged to send
its trains around by the Omaha and
Northwestern roads from Marian juno
tion, via Kasota, Sunday and Monday.
Last night the traek was cleared and
the damage. repaired, and it was possible
to use the. track again today.

until the beginning of the century that
curtains We're used without regard to
their practical purpose.
The window hangings Of the middle
ages and of the renaissance simply
were straight pieces of cloth or tapes
try hung across the window without
any attempt at drapery and regarded
not as part of the decorating of the
room, but as a necessary protection
against drafts.
1t probably is for this reason that in
old prints and pictures representing the
rooms of wealthy people curtains are
so seldom seen. The better the house
the less need there was for curtains.

1t is known, of course, that curtains
We're used in former times-prints, pic

fact-but the care expended in the

makes it plain that the curtain. like the

evil rather than as part of the general
scheme of decoration. The meagerness
and simplicity of the curtain in old

1t may not be generally known that
