From Harper's Magazine.

From Harper's Magazine.
The Inner at h court Of Napoleon
III. lasted about an hour. (The emperor
dislikes sitting long at table.) It SEEM
ed almost impossible that SO much eat
ing and drinking and changing of plates

could be got through within such a
short time. But 1t was!
When their majesties had finished
they arose n every one rose at the
same time. All the chairs were drawn
from under you. tant pis IL you were
yet washed your fingers: but never
mind, you had to skip across the red
carpet in order to let their maiesties
pass.
A rather amusing incident occurred
at dinner One of the foreign min
listers. who 10 very vain of the small
ness Of his feet. had donned a pair Of
patent leather shoes evidently much
loo tight for him. During the dinner
he relieved his suffering by slipping
his aching toes Out of them. All went
well until his chair was suddenly drawn
from underneath him as their majesties
we're about to pass. In utter despair

cover the wandering shoes from under

empress, who appreciates keenly q

embarrassment and (was It Just for q
little fun?) stopped In passing and
spoke to him, much to his confusion, for

seeing his little white shoeless feet.

]. n. Stahl Held for Alleged Robberies
of Buildings at Hawley, In
.. GLIDING Postoffiee.

Deputy Sheriff D. M. Mcdonald of
Hawley arrived at the courthouse to-
day with j. H. Stahl in custody, the

afternoon by the justice at Hawley on
a complaint charging him with the al
legged burglarizing of the Office of the
Wilcox Lumber Co, the store of Jore
& Erickson, the postoffice and the
Evans feed store, early yesterday morn
ing. 1t is said that all he got for his
pains was less than SO. At one place
he could only get hold of so cents.
The Mawley. Herald says a sus-
picious character, who now turns out
to Stahl, arrived in Hawley Thursday
and the same night was seen prowling
about, but those who noticed him took
little OF no notice of his actions. The
prisoner told the policeman at Haw-
ley that his home was at Hope. n. ID.
When the robberies were reported the
policeman began to look for the
stranger who was found at the City
hotel where the clerk reported that
Stahl went to bed at O'Clock and
was excited when he entered the house.
It is alleged certain convincing evil
dence was found among the mans eff
fects. His preliminary hearing was
held yesterday afternoon, County At

PROFESSOR ORR heard

Prof. B. A. Orr, the new head Of the
vocal department of the Fargo con-
servatory. rendered several excellent
solos this morning at Fargo college.
The three songs which he selected were
in three moods; namely: religious.
sentimental and a light comic. strain.
The sympathic manner in which Pro-
fessor Orr interpreted these songs was
remarkable. His voice is clear and Of
exceptional sweetness. His eventual
ton was perfect. Although he did not
display much range of voice, it was
evident that he possesses that quality
The song, Rolling Down to Rio, words
by Kipling and music by German,
made decided hit, and Professor Orr
was requested to sing it twice.
Following Professor Orr, DR.. Cree
gan introduced Guy W. Aldrich of New
York, travelling secretary of the stu
dent Volunteer Movement, who gave
an excellent address on the possibili-
ties Of student missionaries in foreign
fields. He told what the Student Vol
unteers were trying to do and outlined
the work in an admirable manner He
showed the need of teachers, medical
men and women, in fact missionaries
in almost every occupation. There is
a wide field for the college man and
woman, said Mr.. Aldrich, and thous-
ands of college graduates are going
into foreign fields.

Gain AZ postofFoe.

The stamp sales Of the Fargo post
office show a good gain for the month
Of February just closed. over the same
month last year, The gain in the
stamp sales or the month was $372.23.
This indicates more the, growth OF
the city than any other thing about
Fargo. The fact that more stamps are
being sold than last year, makes it
certain that there are more people in
Fargo and that the merchants are do
ing a greater volume of business.
