High Game and Fools. “Never eat game high,” said an anti- quary. “People will tell you that high game is tenderer. What rot! Of course it is tenderer, but would you want your steak or your chop spoiled in order that it might be a little softer to the teeth? No, never! Highness in game is an anachronism, a relic of the past, a relic of the days of stage coaches. In those days it was impos- sible to @eliver game to the cities fresh ~—transit was too slow. All game was high, and men ate it high because oth- erwise they couldn't eat it at all; hence to eat game high nowadays, ‘when there is no necessity for it, is to be a fool.”—Cincinnati Enquirer. An Old Time Alderman. Several patrons of the restaurant at Broadway and Tenth street were lunch- ing there a few days ago, seated at a table between the corner windows on the second floor which commanded a fine view down Broadway, which makes a sharp turn at Tenth street. Said one of them: “Do you know that this bend in Broadway was made in order to save a tree? Well, it was. As originally planned, Broadway would have cut a slice off the lawn of Hen- drik Brevoort, who ran a tavern in the Dutch farmhouse which stood where Grace church now is. He was an alderman, like many of his profes- sion today, ang not only succeeded in saving the magnificent tree in the shade of which his customers lingered over their pipes to watch the traffic on Bloomingdale road, but about 1849 al- so prevented the opening of Eleventh street from Fourth avenue to Broad- way, which would have necessitated the tearing down of his tavern.”—New York Sun. The Madrigal. The word madrigal sounds very formidable to-a beginner in music. More than once have I heard the ques- tlon, “What is a madrigal?” Strictly speaking, a madrigal is an elaborate vocal composition in from three to six parts, generally sung in chorus. The melody should not be carried through a single part, but should be dispersed in phrases through the different voices in the conversational manner peculiar to the music of the sixteenth and sev- enteenth centuries. The true madrigal has no accompaniment. This form of song is considered English, but is thought to have had its origin in the Netherlands. The exact derivation of the word i1s not known. The first madrigals are believed to have been morning songs, shepherds’ lays or songs in praise of the Virgin.—Circle Magazine. A Very Practical Christian. A benevolent old man who lived on his farm in Iowa never refused shelter to any who might ask it of him, His many friends remonstrated with him about this characteristic, knowing that many unscrupulous hoboes would avail themselves of the opportunity and that there was great danger of the old man being robbed. To these remon- sstrances the old man replied that he believed in “practical Christianity.” “But,” said one of his friends, “this seems very impractical. Suppose one of these men took it into his head to. rob you one night?” “My dear young friend,” was the re- ply, “I bid all enter in the name of God, but I prove my belief in practical Christianity by locking up their pants during the night.” Poll Parrot as a Game Bird. ‘While the parrot is a bird of beauti- ful plumage, as a table delicacy it is not to be recommended, as I know from sad experience. My first essay at eating a parrot was attended with mod- Ified success. The bird must have been comparatively young, and after several hours’ boiling became soft enough to masticate and finally swallow, leaving behind it an impression that we had lunched on the sole of a rubber boot.— Arthur D.

St. Paul, April 13.—The house com- I mittee of the whole voted to report | for passage the Saugstad bill extend- ing the primary election system to state officers. On an informal ballot regarding the main proposition, with- out considering the question of date or other details, there were 66 for and 19 against. Opposition to the bill was raised by the city members on account of the date fixed, the second Tuesday in June. They did not want. the county or city candidates nominated at that time, as it would make too long a campaign for them. They were promised the privilege of offering an amendment to the bill which will permit holding county and city primaries, at least in the three large counties, at some later date. F. B. Phillips of Ramsey has a bill fixing the date four weeks be- fore the general election instead of seven, and this idea may be adopted. The Saugstad bill, besides provid- ing for the extension to state officers and the change of date, provides that the nominees for state officers, for United States senator, for congress and for the legislature shall meet and formulate the state platform and se- lect the state central committee and its officers. For another two years at least, un- less there is some new turn of the leg- islative mind, the state will have to get along with its present system of having executions at the county jails instead of at the state prison. The bill introduced by F. B. Phillips to have the hangings at the state prison was killed by the house committee of the whole. The bill introduced by F. B. Wright of Minneapolis to have all capital punishment.inflicted by means of an electric chair at the state prison is still before the house, but is well down the list and' not likely to be reached at this session. House May Have Some Trouble. The house may have some trouble over some of the bills that were passed under suspension of the rules ‘Wednesday evening, when forty-five bills were passed. The last bill passed that night was a bill by T. J.

RO LA . 2 G Dtk brose' Tighe and A. G. Johnson of St. Paul ‘called attention to the fact that they were recorded as voting for the bill, while they were not present. This left only sixty, the number necessary for passage. Later several members discovered that they were recorded as voting for the bill who said they had not voted on it. Some of them discov- ered that they were recorded as voting: for other bills which they had not voted for. The woman’s suffrage constitutional amendment will not ‘be submitted to the voters of the state at the next gen- eral clection. The bill providing for the subinission of this question was j meet -the current - expenses killed in the senate, recelving only twenty-one affirmative votes, thirty-three were cast against it. After cutting down the annual ap- propriution from $300,000 to $250,000 the senate passed Senator J. T. El well’s bill providing for the erection of new buildings and ‘the acquisition of additional land for the university campus. The bill as reported back by i the finance committee carried an ap- propriation of $200,000 for the follow- ing four years, making $1,200,000 in Alr Senator Frank Clague of Lamberton thought the annual appropriation was too large in view of the fact that it extends four years hence, and he! moved the reduction to $250,000, which ‘was adopted. Commodity Rate Bill Passed. The commodity rate bill, passed in the house a few days ago, was passed in the senate under suspension of the rules. The bill received 49 votes and | Senators J. F. Calhoun and E. E.| Smith of Minneapolis and W. W. Dunn of St. Panl cast the only votes against it. The bill fixes the commodity rates about 10 per cent higher than - the rates made by the railroad and ware- house commission several months ago. Senator Albert Schaller -of Hastings | stated in explaining the bill. resentative J. G. Lennon of Minneap- olis. Senator Frank Clague’s motion to have the Dbill placed on general or- ders prevailed by a.vote of 35 to 7. The bill prohibits railroads from giv- ing rebates and prohibits any one from accepting a rebate. The finance committees of both i houses have received from the board 1 of control its estimates of the amounts needed for the institutions under its' | care for the biennial perfod ending July 31, 1909, the aggregate sum’ be- Ing $4,136,549.85. This includes the amounts estimated to be needed to and to make betterments as well as'provid- while | Ing for the new buildings and addi- tlons. Hadn't Been Drunk.
