Can we afford to permit this to be

Can we afford to permit this to be
done?
Shall brave and effective leader,
who, by simple fidelity to the trust
imposed upon him, has attracted the
attention of various sections of our
Union, now be :dishonored in his own
home? Such course would be, and
ought to be, suicidal to the interests
OF any political party.
These conspirators by their bastard
efforts would bring about such con-
fusion and disruption in our ranks,
that it would require more than one
leader of Gov. Johnson's mettle ever
to restore our party to the strong
position We now occupy in our state.
Should they succeed, what can we as
the friends of Mr.. Bryan expect? If
Mr.. Bryan becomes the nominee for
the presidency at the Denver convcn-
ton, can we Minnesotans render him
greater service with a disrupted and
discordant party organization.
II We wish to. increase the Demo-
cratic strength in our state, the course
is clear. We mist uphold the hands
of Gov. Johnson.
Let the Democrats of Stearns coun-
ty reaffirm their confidence in this
man by sending delegates to the coun-
ty convention pledged to his support.
The undersigned take this method
Of warning the loyal Democrats of old
Stearns, who gave John A. johnson
2,s11 majority at the last election, tina
an effort is being made to steal the
delegation of this. county from the
governor. We say steal, because
We feel absolutely certain that more
than nine-tenths of our Democrats are
enthusiastic Johnson men. Mr.. Ben
nett states that he is not an enemy
of Gov. Johnson. The very malic-
iousness of the attack made upon the
latter by the coterie of politicians to
which Bennett belongs utterly dis
proves this stateemnt There could
be no grosser Misrepresentation OF
the sentiment which pervades Stearns
county than his selection as delegate
to the national convention.
We call upon the Democrats of the
county to attend the caucuses on May
6, from Z to $3.50 p. m. and to select
true and honest friends of Gov. John
son as delegates to the county con-
vention which meets on May 9.
Give one hour to attend the caucus
and thus testify your friendship fol-
Minnesota's gallant Democratic lead
er and governor-Hon. John A. John
son.

forations in a strip of paper, through a
special transmitter, and the perforations
determine the intervals between the cur
rents These intervals are recorded in the
receiver by small mirror, which os-
cillates in accordance with them. The
oscillating mirror reflects a dancing ray
of light from a lamp placed in front of
it, and its movements are recorded by
an instrument which photographs them
on a strip of sensitized paper, which is
print and negative in one, and which re-
produces the message in an angular. up
right script.
For pholographing the voice a micro
phone is substituted for the transmitter.
The vibrations cause the mirror in the re-
ceiver to oscillate. and the tones are re-
produced on the paper in such a way as
to indicate the quality of the singer or
orator-black and strong for the strong
voice, or small and fine for weak one.
The utility of this invention is that a
professor of singing will be able to tell
accurately how his pupils voice is pro
crossing by making photographs of it
periodically. and the tone camera can
also be made of great use in the prepare
ton of Photographic records.-Iit-Blts.

DOGS LIKE MASTERS.
Appendicitis the Fashionable Malady
Among High Life CANNES in
New York

Plutocratic dogs sometimes have APP
pendicitis, just like their masters, and
are operated on to remove the vermifOrm
appendix, says the New York Press.
There is dog and cat hospital in the
city in which there is a woman surgeon.
She wears a SteriliZed cotton gown when
she operates and uses cotton bandages,
just like in real hospital. There is a
long table in the middle of the ''operat-
with a few drops of ether or chloroform,
has parted with some portion of his
anatomy.
One day this woman surgeon removed
an appendix and found it full of coal.
This is a specimen of the things puppies
will eat. One day she removed a toy
watch from bright young pups diges-
tive apparatus, where it had not digested.
Buckles, pocketbook clasps, buttons,
pins and needles are among the inter-
esting things she has added to her col
lection from this source.
sick dog is as finical about his food
as a sick person. One great Dane who
had received an injury to his spine re-
fused to eat anything. He was kept alive
by having his mouth held open while
raw eggs were thrown into it. He was
fed despite himself and his life saved.
The first thing he ate voluntarily was
ice cream, which is as frequent an in
valid dish in this as in human hos
pital. Cod liver oil, matted milk, milk
punches, beef juice and pure cream are
among the invalid dainties served.
One patron brings in her two little
dogs periodically to have their teeth ex-
amined for deposits of tartar. This
seems hardly necessary, as each little
fellow has his own toothbrush and tooth
powder and his his teeth brushed care
fully. twice a day. Each has his little
bed, as well as his own dog basket,
where he sleeps upon a hair mattress be-
meath down quilt. They have dainty
velvet robes to wear in cool weather
and their mistress buys prepared tablets
at So bottle to lend variety to their
menu.

HUNTING THE RH1NocERos.
He Is the Deadliest Foe That the Ivory
Hunter Has to Meet.

ITO my mind. rhinoceros hunting is the
most dangerous of all hunting bar
none," says Berkeley Hutton, in Every
body's. 81 have had a worse time. with
rhinos than with lions, elephants, Loop
ards, or buffalo. The beast seems pos
sessed of sort of devilish cunning; you
can't fool him as you can an elephant,
nor intimidate him as you can a lion.
Unless aroused, he is timid and nervous
during the day, and particularly so when
alone. But at night he seems to lose
absolutely all fear of man. He does not
wait to be attacked, but has an unpleas-
ant habit of charging anything he sees in
the shape of. an enemy, as soon as he
sees it-and his sight is remarkably keen.
Besides, like the elephant, the rhinocer-
os can, when he wants to, show speed
that is nothing short of marvellous, when
one considers his huge and clumsy bulk.
have known cases where a rhino got
sight of a hunter and deliberately stalked
him, coming upon him before the man
had an idea that he was anywhere in the
vicinity. And he always dies fighting; l
have never known rhino, however badly
wounded, to try bolt for safety. Once
you rouse him, you must kill him, or he'll
kill you, if he can get you"

WEALTH HIDDEN IN OLD TABLE.
Problem California Woman Left for
Administrator to Solve.

Cunningly hidden in secret recep-
tace deftly carved in >the leg of an an
tique table, the fortune of the late Mrs.
Jessie Fremont Dietsch of San Fran
cisco, relative of the noted pathfinder,
Gen. John G. Fremont, was found re-
Gently by the deputy public administra-
tor, W. J. Hynes. The neatly fastened
little bundle give up bank book show
ing deposits of $4,000, a costly collection
of time honored jewelry and countless
shares in wildcat concerns worth their
waste paper value.
The discovery of the effects of the err
ratio woman of historic lineage ends a
search that Hynes and his men pursued
for several days with great earneStness.
When Mrs. Dietsch died, on April %,
alone and in seclusion, her effects were
taken charge of by the public admins
traitor in the absence OF any near rela-
tives The officers were informed that
the old woman was possessed OF great
wealth and the stories came from such
reliable sources that it was deemed ad-
visable to make a complete search of
the premises.
With this end in view Hynes and his
assistants strained every effort to locate
the hidden treasure Every article in the
house was overturned and thoroughly
searched without avail. Even the car
pets and tapestries were ripped open in
the hope that they would yield some of
the glittering gold which the aged recluse
was supposed to possess
Just as Hynes was about to abandon
the search he accidentally knocked off
the hollow leg of an ancient table. In a
cleverly contrived cache the public ad-
ministrator spied an old wallet Opening
the bag, Hynes discovered that it con-
tanned the bank book. jewels and stock
certifcates.-Lo Angeles Times.

memorandum page, and writing with
lead pencil in the small round letters
characteristic of his hand, Mr.. Edison

the card idly over to his neighbor, L. A.
Martin. It read:
can American loves his family. If
