moyal of Local Train
Hearing at St. Cloud on Passenger
Trains Nos. and Out
of Melrose

A large delegation of citizens rep
resenting places along the route of
passenger thains Nos. 5 and 6, which
the Great Northern has petitioned
the State Railroad and Warehouse
Commission to have removed attend
ed the hearing conducted by Com
missioner Mattson at st. Cloud last
Friday, and strongly objected to the
removal of these trains unless like
service is rendered by the morning
and evening trains, Nos. 7 and 8.
The Great Northern was represent
ed at the hearing by Attorney James
who called on Supt. R. E. Lands,
Auditor Malmgren, General Super
intendent Kieney and General Ticket
Agent Hathaway for testimony. This
testimony showed that the passenger
business has been greatly reduced
during the past six years until at
present there is but little travel on
these trains, or at least during the
summer months, and the reason given
for this was that the bus lines were
taking the passenger business away
from these trains. -
1t was shown that the total revenue
from this train during the first seven
months of this year was $38, 426.00
and the operating expense during this
period was 95,178.67, loss of $780,
1882 for the seven months.
The committee present from this
city objected to the removal of these
trains because of the curtailment of
mail service with towns to the east of
here, but the objection was met with
the statement that if the trains are
removed, mail to and from the towns
east of here would be handled by
trains z and 8.
Objections were made by commit
tees from Albany, Avon and College
vile, both as to mail and curtailment
of passenger service, particularly
during the winter months.
Committees east of ST., Cloud OBJ
jected on grounds Of mail, passenger
and express services and dairymen
in the vicinity of Hasty and Enfield,
who are members of the Twin City
Milk Producers Co., stated that the
removal of these trains would cause
severe hardship to them in the ship
ment of sweet milk to the Twin City
Market.
Don. Freeman of st. Cloud, repre-
senting the jobbers of St. Cloud, APP
peared at the hearing and entered
an objection to the action of the st.
Cloud Chamber of Commerce in pass
ing resolution favoring the reno
val of the trains and said that the
resolution did not express the gener-
al sentiment of the business men of
st. Cloud.
Commissioner Mattsone took the

the singular or the plural may be used but
where the plural is given the singular can
not be used, and vice versa.
A. In making their decision the judges
will consider each list entirely On it's mer-
its. Each incorrect word counts against
the contestant just as much as a correct
word counts in his favor. A margin,
however, of ten unaccepted words will be
allowed each contestant without penalty
to allow for possible legitimate differ
ence of opinion; but all incorrect words
more than ten, will count against

1c All answers will be given the sane
consideration regardless of whether sub
scriptions to The Planet are sent in or not
Neatness Of penmanship will not affect the
decision of the judges, but it should be
evident to each one of the contestants that
plain writing and correct spelling is very
necessary.
IL. In event of two contestants tieing
for first place, the total Of the first and
second prizes will be divided between the
two pro rata according to the class they
are in. The contestant having the next
highest list will receive the third prize,
the next the fourth, etc Should three tie
for prize the same rule will be followed.
H. The Judges will be three reliable
and well known residents of our commun-
ity, who are we'll qualified for the task.
Their decision will be final and each con-
testant agrees to abide by their findings

MONTH GIRL IS BORN
 DETERMINES CHARACTER
March Maidens. Ancient Book Says, Will Be ToGuacious. Contcnti-
 ous and Quarrclsome

Prague. Dec. 17.--From time to time Prague gives up to some persis- tent delver in records of the past that are not without interest. For it is an ancient city and its museums and bookstals are filled with chronicles Of what its people said and did in other centuries. A recent discovery | is an old book on astronomy which shows that the men of that day spent no little time in eDdeavors to read what they called the enigma of the ages" in other words. their woman kind.
 Based on the influence supposed to be eXerted on humans by the con- stellation of the planets in the month in which they were born, this vol tune analyses girls, according to the calendar, as follows;
 A girl born in January is very like ly to become a good housewife. She will incline to melancholy, but will have gentle disposition. February girls will be good mothers. and faith ful.
 March maidens, however, will be To- Nhdtioust tpi4ltulouS qua QudFItl- some, while April babies will grow up to be mercurial and unsteady women.
 May guarantees merry and good tempered girls, while June gives them passionate and fiery temperaments with an inclination to superficiality.
 July produces the roses among women, according to this old sage; beautiful but thorny. Born a month later they are amiable and sensible, but rather keen for rich husbands.
 Girls born in September are of fine susceptibilities and always ready to help others; they will. therefore. be welcomed everywhere, but should guard against being imposed upon by selfish people. October favors the earth with creatures who surpass all others of the sex as to depth and ardor of love.
 Women born in November are kind hearted and friendly; if they are not it is always the fault of somebody else. never their own. The last month of the year brings forth racy and very good-looking girls. Unfortunately they cannot be recommended to earn. est men. for they are very eHtrava- gant and always on the hunt for sensations.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY

You are out after one of the big heads Of the crook world" he said. "He knows 1t and he's trailing you. My lucks turned. How can l help?" Harley stood up. facing Mir, Brinn. He knows II, as you say he replied, and I hold my life in my hands. But from your answer to the question which I have come here tonight to ask you. l shall conclude whether or not your danger al the moment is greater than mine"
 Good" said Nichol Brinn.
 My question is simple but strange" said Paul Harley. Tt is this: What do you know of Fire-Tongue' 2"
 CHAPTER V.
 "The Gates of Hell"
 If Paul Harley had counted upon "Fire-Tongue" to have a dramatic effect upon Ntcol Brinn, he was not disappointed.
 "Fire-Tongue," he said, tensely. fol- lowing a short silence. For God s sake when did you hear that word 2"
 T heard it." replied Harley, slowly, tonight" He fixed his gaze intently upon the sallow face of the American. Tt was spoken by Sir Charles Abing- don"
 sir Charles Abingdon echoed Brinn; and in what way is it con- neeted with your case?"
 Tn this way" answered Harley. Tt was spoken by Sir Charles a few moments before he died"
 Nicol Brinn's dropping lids flick cred rapidly. Before he died! Then Sir Charles Abingdon is dead! When did he die?"
 He died tonight and the last words that he uttered were Tongue" He paused, never for moment re- moYinng that fixed gaze from the others face,
 "Go on," prompted Mr. Brinn.
 And 'Nieol Brinn,'"
 Nicoi Brinn stood still as caryen mha. Indeed. only by an added rig tdite in his pose did he reward Paul Narleys intense scrutiny. A silence charged with drama was finally broken hy the American MT. liar ny. bc said you told me that you were up against the big proposition of N1ur career You are right"
 
 g air and, resting his chin in his naad, guzed fxedly into the empty gratr.
 Give me the whole story" said Nr. l1rinn, right from the beginning" He looked up. DO you know what you have done tonight. Mir. Harley?"
 Paul Harley shook his head Swift ly. like the touch of an icy finger, that warning note Of danger had reached him again.
 "Ill tell you" continued Brinn. "Tou have opened the gates of helll"
 Not another word did he speak while Paul Harley. pacing slowly ID and down before the hearth, gave him plain account Of the case, emitting all reference to his personal suspicious and to the measures which he had taken to confirm them.
 You think he was muderpd 2" said Brinn in his high, toneless voice.
 T have formed no definite opinion. What is your own7"
 T may not look it." replied Brinn. but at this present moment l am the most hcpelessly puzzled and badly frightened man in London"
 He half turned in the big chair 10 face his visitor, who now was standing before the fireplace staring down at him.
 "one day last month" he resumed. T got out of my car in a big hurry
