Walker Pilot: Duluth papers say it all looks like Hugo for speaker of the House. Things look different in Duluth than any- where else in the state. Right after the state convention held there everything looked like Cole. The The Grand Rapids Independ- ent wants to see ‘‘Billy’’ Sunday, the evangelist, try a fall in its town with the men who won's go to church. The “Rapids” is a pretty bad place, if Editor La- ['reniere can be believed, and he generally can be; and Sunday would find foemen worthy of his steel in the disciples of Satan in that place. By all means, bring “Billy”’ Sunday to Grand Rapids. “MINORITY CONTROL. That the twin cities realize the inequality of the present legisla- tive apportionment is shown by the attitude of the Minneapolis and St. Paul press, toward the agitation for a change. All of the the city papers favor a re-ap- portionment, and doubtless the house and sepate members from the cities will work for it, with the legislators from the northern part of the state. The Minne- apolis Journal expresses the gen- eral sentiment (outside of south- ern Minnesota) when it says: The question of legislative re- apportionment in Minnesota, simmered down, means that the minority of the people now have a majority of the representation in thelegislature. That minority, therefore, controls the situation, and can prevent a readjustment that will give equality. It all de- pends on whether this minority, as represented by the majority of the legislature, is ready to make Some sacrifice in the inter- ests of justice and fair play. The inequality is most glaring in the:state senate. They are si1xty-three senators, and thirty- two of them, elected from the first, second and third congres- sional districts, and most of the seventh, represent a constituency of 741,184 people. The other thirty-one senators look after the interests of 1,236,267 people. In other words, 37 per cent of the people of the state elect a ma- jority of the senate, and have more voice in that body than the other 63 per cent. In the house more care has been taken to grant equality, hut the counties south of the twin cities and including Ramsey, have 600f the 119 house members, with a population of 904,802. The other fifty-nine members of the house are elected by a con- stituency of 1,072,599. A major- ity of the house 18 elected by 45 per cent of the pgople. There are districts in southern Minnesota that ought not tu be changed or lose any representa- tion, and there are some in the northern part that have enough, but in general terms there is a great wrong done the northern portion, and the older counties in the south have more than their fair share, The solution of the problem rests with the minority. The majority ' is- asking for equal representation. Surely the minority can do nothing but con- cede it. A Queer Plny In Baseball, 4 | Here is a play in baseball that hap- pened long ago. Perhaps it never will bappen again. Did any one ever hear | of a base runner scoring from first base on a line drive that was caught by a third baseman and when the ball never left the third baseman’s hand? The play happened In this way: Andy Moynihan was playing third base for the Pastimes of Chicago In 1868 when a tournament was held. The Occiden- tals of Peoria were the opposing team. | In the first inning, with a runner on first, the batter drove a liner straight over third. Moynihan shoved up his hand, the ball struck it and stuck fast In the hand. The crowd cheered. An instant later they saw something was wrong. . Moynihan, writhing with paln, was running around third base, | The base runner at first saw something was the matter and ran down to sec- ond. Then he ran to third and finally trotted home unmolested. The trouble was that the ball, strik- Ing Moynihan’s hand, paralyzed the nerves, - The.ball was stuck tight in his hand. It was five minutes bBefore his fellow players could pry his fin- | gers open and get the ball out.—Chica- @a Tribune. -~ TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY i Take LAXATIVE BROMO Quinine Tablet Drugglsts refund money if 1t fails to cure, E W.GROVE'S signature is on each box. 2c.

Fleas pull 1,493 times thelr own dead weight. The Mediterranean cockle, Venus verrucosa, can exert a pulling power equal to 2,071 times the ‘weight of its own body. So great is the power possessed by the oyster that " to open it a force equal to 1,319.5 times the weight of its shelless body is re- quired. If the human being possessed strength as great in proportion as that of these shellfish the average man would be able to lift the enormous weight of 2,976,000 pounds, pulling In the same degree as the limpet. And if the man pulled in the same propor- tlonate degree as the cockle he would sustain a weight of no less than 3,106, 500 pounds. A Cynic, In the “Cynic’s Word Book” Am- brose Bierce, himself a cyaic, gives the following definition of a cynic: “A blackguard whose faulty vision sees things as they are, not as they ought to. be; hence the custom among the Scythians of plucking out a cynic's eyes to improve his vision.” MEN AND WOMER, Uso Big @ for unnatural dincharges,infammations, or ulceration of mucous membranes.

Two Laas, At one time, when De Quincey was Hving at Lasswade in simple and friendly relations with the people, who respected him not as a writer, but as & good neighbor, he formed a very de- lightful friendship with a little child, @& boy of four years. This lad, a nephew of one of the housemaids, was the constant companion of the great man and would forsake any amuse- ment for the pleasure of walking round a dull little garden with him. One day somebody heard this conver- sation between the two comrades: “What d’ye call thon tree?” asked the child. De Quincey considered and then said, with careful deliberation, “I am not sure, my dear, but I think it may be a laurustinus.” Joie o, as Best, Saiese” Always eliatle. - Sol rugiists everywhere. chiestor Ohcmisne) Ba BEliadoinbio B2 Pioneer THE COMFORTABLE WAY.

The craze among society women for queer pets Is an old story. It usually ends through being carried too far, There is the case of Andromeda, for in- stance, and there Is that other affair of the decadent Roman emperor’s daugh- ter, who had a pet gorilla, procured for her at great cost by an Arabian trader who' supplied strange beasts for the amphitheater. One day the Praetorian guard arose and murdered the cacsar. The ‘gorilla, who happened to be pres- ent, strangled the ringleader, who was to have assumed the imperial purple himself, with its bare hands. This so | delighted ' the Praetorians . that they unanimously elected the gorilla, whom they took for a barbarian from North Britain, to the vacant throne.
