The St. Paul Pioneer Press says that in Illinois some people make money, some inherit money and some vote for Lorimer for United States Senator. Not singular that Alaska is at- tracting so much attention. The latest forestry bulletin says that the territory contains. 1000,000,000 acres of frorest, mostly hemlock. Some 20,000,000 of these acres have possibilities of timber suffic- ient in size and density to be used as saw timber, The other 8,000,000 acres 1s woodland which can pro- duce practically only fire woob. The meeting of the council due:to have been held this week had.to be postponed because a quorum was:not present. This is the second time that this has happened in five weeks, and once out of the three meetings held, the councilmen who were on time had to phone to the others in order to geta quorum. City business piles up regardless of the hot weather and must be dis- posed of punctually. If not, it soon’ assumes a startling size. The sug- gestion has been made that the city- fathers attend the meetings of the council and get there on time. If roll is called promptly at 8 o’clock instead of nearly 9:30, the business could be disposed of in a reasonable time, FROM THE PEOPLE'S STAGE. What will Roosevelt dp? This is the question that the popular mind is asking itself each day more and more. The Sage of Sagamore never worked up dramatic possibilities more keenly than in the present Taft-Insurgent thriller. Act number one; Pinchot appears upon the stage, listens to and answers the “Voice” and withdraws in silence, but smiling. Act number two; Root gently appears before the footlights, and the cry “Death to Insurgents” comes from the galleries. " The curtain drops again and: between the acts the following takes place. Hughes and Lodge come and go; LaFollette crosses the boards with immense band clapping from un- ruly trcublc-maleers;' and last our national president is the actor to be greeted by applunse. But still the ‘'Voice” waits. And THE BEMIDJI I]A"_Y PI““EEH the. confidence that something the popular _tenseness is helq by staggering is going to happen. Mr. Roosevelt never dissapoints in that. While there is complaint in a _hig city, the hack-drivers make undué speed for the pleasure of a corpse with any ideas of vanity. With the barn dance out of the rupning, no one need lament that the weather is too hot for jigging. There are few of us who do not in- dulge in a secret kick that we have to die like common folks.

D, ONE EMPLOYE 1S EILEED Score of Others More or Less Injured and the Main Top. and -Menagerie Tents “ Destroyed—Rainfall Covers Three States, Accompanied by Wind In Some Localitles, but the Damage 1s Nominal. St. Paul, July 7.—A storm, accom- panied by electricity -and a ‘strong wind, which seems to have increased In velocity as the disturbance moved Wwestward, entered Minnesota in the southeastern counties from Wisconsin and:.swept across the-southern: half of the state into South Dakota, where it Spent its fury at Watertown, S. D. In Southern Minnesota the rains that fell were highly beneficial to the crops, which have:felt the drouth, and the wind was not so severe as to do But when the storm reached Western Minnesota the wind had in- creased to such an extent-the grain flelds .suffered -and some farm.budld- Angs were demolished. Benson, Minn., also felt its fury. Large shade trees in several blocks were uprooted, the Catholic church tower and the top of the city water tank were carried away. At Watertown, 8. D., the storm wrecked the tents of Ringling Bros. circus. One dead and a score more or less injured, the main top and the menagerie tent in ruins, two horses killed and the big show held up for a day are some of the résults. An un- identified circus hand was killed at the scene of the loading of the train. The body was found under the ruins of the top of a box car in the railroad yards. The injured are said to in- clude four performers, but the circus management refuses all information. Wild Animals Safely Caged. The wild animals were safely caged and were saved in spite of the fact .that dens and lairs were thrown hel- tel skelter for several rods by -the wind. The elephants were safely loaded on trains just before the storm started and were blinded in cars. Cir- cus: men declare this averted a stam- pede and saved the loss of many thou- sands of dollars. It is estimated that the loss to the circus is-$20,000. Dam- age: to plate glass fronts-and trees in the: clty will-approximate $5,000. A crowd of about 2,000 were in the tent Jjust after the opening of the evening performance, when the announcer warned the crowd of the approaching storm. Few left. In less than a min- ute the top of the tent began to sway and the big poles were lifted from the ground. There was a wild rush. of the patroms within for the outside. Circus hands, with admirable coolness, directed the rush and all were out when a blast of wind ripped the great tent in the middle and the ribbony edges, flapping into gas lamps, caught fire. The flaming canvas- was lifted hun- dreds of feet into the ‘air and flying poles; boards and bits of seats were hurled with great force after the flee- ing thousands, who were blinded by dust and terrified. Damage Nominal Elsewhere. At Brookings, S. D., there was' little rain but the wind was heavy. Here, however, as in other places that have reported, the damage was nominal. A few small buildings and shade trees were razed in the vicinity of Huron, S. D, and there was little damage by hail; while- west of that city there was hail and torrents of rain. Copious rains fell between Aberdeen and Bow- dle, and also between the former city and Redfield. No damage was done by wind. Yankton had three-fourths of an inch of rainfall, the first rain in a month. It'came just in time to save the crop situation. At Webster, S. D., also there was- light rain. Wahpeton, N. D, reported” a shower; Dickinson, light showers- and some damage by hail. Bismarck had cooler weather but no indication of rain. Austin, Winona, Red Wing, Dodge Center, Rochester, Albert Lea, Fari- bault: and Mankato, in Southern and Southwestern Minnesota, reported beneficial rains-and little or no dam- age by the wind which accompanied the electrical storm. Further west, Redwood ' Falls, Marshall and Glen- wood ' also were visited by rains; which extended: as far north as Fergus: Falls in. Western Minnesota, Great damage to crops. by hail was done In the vicinity of Grand Forks; N. D. RAIN CHECKS FOREST FIRES, Precipitation in Northern Minnesota and. Wisconsin, Duluth, July 7.—In" less than' an hour .57 of an inch-of rain fell in Du- luth! and vicinity, The rain was the first in several weeks and _the pre- eipitation was five times greater than in the entire month of June. The rain checked forest fires which threatened Port Wing, Wis,, and brush fires in orthern Wisconsin were either ex- inguished or- checked.. The rain was eneral in.

When the hearing was over and the jury retired to their room to cGonsider thelr verdict they found that they stood eleven to one in favor of an acquittal, but the one happened to be a very complacent old gentleman who rested his chin upon the head of a thick bambog cane and announced de- fiantly that he was ready to stay there as long as any of them. The hours dragged on, evening ar- tived, and the old gentleman obstinate- ly held out. The other jurors wearily arranged themselves to make a night of it. From time to time the old gentle- man would contemplatively suck the head of the cane. Finally he fell asleep, and the cane dropped- heavily to the tioor. Then one of! the jurymen picked it up and found, to his surprise, that it was nearly full of Irish wiisky. The eleven passed the cane round, relleved it of its con- tents and then awakened ‘Its slumber- Ing owner. Slowly he lifted the cane to his mouth, looked at his watch and then arose -with the announcement, “Boys, I'm afther chungin’ me moind.” —London Telegraph. Inheritance of the Blind. The blind child—the deaf blind chiia —has inherited the mind of seeing and hearing ancestors,.a mind measured toJ five senses. Therefore he must be in- fluenced, even If it be unknown to him- self, by the light, color, song, which have been transmitted through the language he'is taught, for the cham- bers of ‘the mind are ready to receive that langudge. The brain of the race I8 80 permeated with color that it dyes even the speech of the blind. Every object I think of is stained with the. hue that belongs to it by association and memory.

Sheridan’s Star Actor, When Sheridan was a mamager he even Indulged in such catering to-the public taste as offering to the public a dog plece by Reynolds, entitled “The Caravan; or, The Driver and the Dog.” Of its first presentation it is recorded that Sheridan after witnessing the per- formance suddenly entered the green- room, shouting: “Where is he? Where is my guardian angel?” Presuming be meant to congratulate the author, Reynolds replied, “Here I am!” ““Pooh.” replied Sheridan, “I don’t mean you; 1 mean the dog.” Later one Dignum, who played in the plece, approached Sheridan one night with woeful counte- nance, saying: “Sir, there 18 no guard- ing against illness. It is truly lamenta- ble to stop the run of a successful play like this, but really”— “Really what?” cried Sheridan, interrupting him. “I am so unwell that I caunnot go on longer than tonight.” “You!” exclaimed Bheridan. “My good fellow, you terri- fied: me.
