T ‘THE PROPOSED BOULEVARD. If it is possible to formulate any tangible plan whereby a ‘boulevard may be constructed around Lake Be- midji-—that pearl of Beltrami county —-certainly not many sane men can be found to oppose it. Mr. Lycan MacKenzie 0. K. Will someone kindly tell us why the Bemidji Sentiel slams Secretary. W. R. MacKenzie by inferring ' that he is:to-blame because- the -reappor- tionment bill did not pass, also by saying that MacKenzie’s presence at the state capital this’ winter has been to no purpose! The harder and more unselfishly men work for pub- ic good the more earnestly a - few other men, who scarcely ever give a moment of time or & cent-of money for public good, do all they can to| minimize and ridicule their en-| deavor.

His point that more visi- tors can-be brought here, it seems to us, exceedingly well taken.

A young chap was walking along 2" business street with ‘a very pretty girl when he happened to glance into a couple of windows where the-latest styles of men’s overcoats and suits were displayed. The girl noticed It. She stopped and exclaimed: “What a dandy ‘overcoat! Why don't you get one of those, Bob? You'll look fine in- slde-of that." She looked at everything in that window, and the young chap was de- lighted at her interest in men’s clothes, “You're all right, Grace,” said he. “That's what 1 -like about you. Most girls -would rather look at lingerie walsts than at a man’s overcoat and sufts.” The-girl Jaughed. *“Well, Bob,” said she;: “to be perfectly honest, the mir rors in that window are something to ery for. 1 was trying to see if my hat ‘was ‘on straight!” The Merits:of “Angelick Snuff.” Angelick snuff, the most noble com- position ip -the' world, removing all manner ‘of disorders of ‘the head and brain, easing the most excruciating pain in & moment, taking away all swimming and - giddiness proceeding 'from vapours, - etc.; -ulso Tdrosysiness, sleepiness and other lethargick effects, perfectly curing deafness to admira- tlon and'all:humours and soreness in the-eyes, etc. *Corroborates-the brain, comforts the nerves and revives the spirits.* Its ‘admirable eficacy 'in all experienced above a thousand times and very justly causes it to be es- teemed the most-beneficial snuff in the world: - Price 1s. a paper, with direc- tione.

The session, be- cause of the anomalous situation‘cre- ated by one party being in control of one branch and its rival in power at the other emnd of the capitol, 'is ex- pected to be long and filled with tur- moil and political bickerings. v The chief features of interest in the session was the election of Champ Clark of Missouri as speaker of the house and the return to the floor of “Uncle Joe" Cannon as & mere mem- ber from Danville, Ill,, and a minority member at that. Clark polled 217 votes, against 131 for James R. Mann of Illinois, 16 for Henry A. Cooper of Wisconsin and 1 for George W.: Nor- ris of Nebraska. The three last named are Republicans. The progressive Republicans of the house in their votes for speaker indi- cated thet they intend to maintain a separate working organization. Fif- teen of them voted for Representative Cooper of Wisconsin. Represenatives Norris of Nebraska and Madison of Kansas, however, temporarily des i ed and voted with the regular Repub- licans for Mr. Mann. Great Interest in Proceedings. The - opening program in the house, always an interesting specta- cle, was followed with uncommon keenness. It included the calling of the ‘house to order by Major Alexan- der McDowell, the veteran Republican clerk of the house, who is soon to be Teplaced; the calling of the roll; the election of the speaker; his speech of acceptance, the- swearing in of the members by state delegations and the jdrawing for seats. There are always a few privileged members who are al- lowed to choose their seats in advance | of the drawing. They include usually | the oldest member of the house, in point of service, General Bingham of Pennsylvania and one or two others as the house leaders may designate.

NEW-‘MEMBERS - SWORN IN Many Visitors. ‘Washington, April 5.—Although the initial ‘ceremonies of the extra session 1o the senate were: quite 'secondary in interest to those ' of-the house, there still was a large attendance in the gal- leries and the scene was animated. ‘The only ‘ex-senator present was the eighty-eight-year-old Henry - Gassoway Davis of West Virgisia. 3 The ceremonies consisted in the main of ‘a ‘brief prayer by the senate chaplain, Rev. Ulysses Grant Pierce,, who- petitioned that as a people we | might be “delivered trom strife within and ‘warfare-without;” the reading of tie message calling the special session and the swearing in of the thirty new- ly elected senators. Of the senators sworn, seventeen’ were men who never before had occu, pied seats in the senate, Twelve were Democrats and five Republicans. Great Men.Tall and Short. A recent investigator has attempted to show that Lombroso and his follow- ers were wrong in asserting that men of genius were of small stature. Of 230 individuals‘of eminence he found that figures were obtainable for 103: ‘of these sixteen were of middle height, fifty-eight above and twenty-nine be- low. Americans particularly combined greatness with inches.” ‘Jefferson and Jackson were more than six feet tall. Sumner was six feet four inches, and Washington, Lincoin and Beecher were ‘more -than -six feet. - Among famous foreigners Toistoy was ‘a large man, and so were Thackeray, Bismarck and Darwin. On the contrary, many of‘the world's greatest:geniases were undersized and even deformed. Napoleon, Poe, Pape, Alexander the Great, Nelson, Blake ‘and: Caesar were small men.

During Beidler's' incurabency the jail was rebuilt and one of the new fashioned steel cages for the prisoners installed. Beidler Invited all the notables down to see' the cage when it was completed. The | governor and the state and city offi-! cfals and many prominent citizens ac- cepted the invitation. “X” took them into a cage and excused himself for a minute.

The Romans had three recognized '‘methods of “applauding—the bombus, the imbrices and the testae. The word | bombus did not carry any allusion to| explosives. On the contrary, this form | of applause was‘the most decorous, in- asmuch as it -consisted: merely of a! humming: or buzzing noise. Thus in a way the Romans were the first “to make things hum” in a public assem- | bly. - The'bombus <was not the chiet feature the Romans had to offer in the way of applause. The imbrices meant ] | *Aa’ve an | of the hands. The testae meant the striking together of the flat portions of the hands., From this we may con- clude that “the Romans clapped, but there is no certainty on this point.— New York Herald. Attachment.
