GRAND RAPIDS. - MINNESOTA A Spanish patent covers Spain and all the Spanish colonies that are not held by insurgents. ‘A little borax put in water in which scarlet napkins and red-bordered tow- els are to be Washed will prevent them from fading. The five largest cities in Switerland are Zurich, with 126,500 inhabitants; Geneva, 80,000; Basle, 78,900; Berne, 48,400; Lausanne, 36,600. A recently opened guano cave in Georgia was found to be inhabited by great swarms of white flies having yel- low legs and pale pink eyes. The treasurer of the Pennsylvania Railroad company sent abroad $985,000 ito meet May dividends and interest on Yoreign held securities of that road. Tho great scheme for a ship canal from the Bay of Biscay to the Mediter- ranean has received its quietus. The ‘French commission reported that it is impracticable. For those with weakened digestive powers honey is a very desirable food. If a person is very tired—‘“too exhaust- ved to eat’—a few tastes of honey will act like magic. The title and position of cardinal is the highest position in the Roman Catholic church next to the pope. Car- Ginals are divided into three classes— six cardinal-bishops, fifty cardinal- priests and fourteen cardinal-deacons. The first bank within the mits of the United States was chartered in Philadelphia in 1781. It was incor- porated by congress under the title, “The President, Directors and Com- pany of the Bank of North America.” The first book printed in the limits of the United States was the “Bay Psalms Book.” which was issued in Cambridge, Mass., in 1640. Specimens of this publication are extremely rare, and command very high prices. In a lot of old paper stock received dately in a mill at Andover, Conn., was a Bible, the inscription in which reads: “This Bible was used in the pulpit by Rey. Steven West, pastor in Stock- bridge, Mass., from 1759 to 1818.” in 1790 were made the first brooms {m this country from broom corn grown on American soil. The brooms were made in Philadelphia and the event was spoken of at the time as an illus- tration of the development of the coun- try. One of the most painful episodes of the Paris commune, the shooting of Mer. Darboy, archbishop of raris, and his fellow hostage, was commemorated on May 24, the twenty-fifth anniver- sary, by requiem masses in the Paris churches. The first spelling book printed in this country was entitled “The American Spelling Book,” by Noah Webster. It was issued in 1783, and for consider- bly more than half a century was the standard work used in all American schools. The first church building erected specially for that purpose and weed for no other was put up in Boston in 1632. Before that date the Puritans held their meetings in private houses or in a house which also served for a schoo] room. No fewer than five systems of law are in use in Germany. In moving from one place to another tourists are often greqtly puzzled when they find that an act perfectly allowable in one state is a crime in another. A still greater confusion often results when the right of property is considered. The surface of the sea is estimated at 150,000,000 square miles, taking the whole surface of the globe at 197,000,- 000, and its greatest depth supposedly equals the height of the highest moun- tain, or four miles. The Pacific ocean covers 78,000,000 square miles, the At- lantic 25,000,000, the Mediterranean 1,000,000. The ruthless slaughter of the ele- phant is the cause of one of the great- est complaints against the civilized immigration of Africa. Year by year, judging, for want of trustworthy sta- tistics, by the quantity of ivery ex- ported, from 50,000°to 60,0000 ele- phants are killed on that continent. All meat that is declared unfit for food by the official inspectors in Lon- don is immediately removed to the con- demned meat shed in the Central Mar- ket at Smithfield. Here is a series of tanks made of thick slate, and each with a capacity of 600 gallons. The meat is first slashed and disfigured and then subjected to a chemical bath which has the effect not only of dis- coloring and deodorizing it, but also of stopping decomposition.

Government Toronto, Ont., June 25.—While the returns for the duminien election are not all in they are sufficiently near completed to show a decided defeat for the government. The Catholie vote upon what the ministry relied has ut- terly failed to go Censervative. Que- bec, which in the last election. gave the Liberals a majority of only tive votes, and which, on the strength of the remedial legislation to which the government is pledged, was expected to go strongly Conservative, has wheeled round and given the Liberals from 20 to 25 majority. In Toronto the fight was a straight one as regards the separate schools issue and the antis carried all four seats by large majorities. Great inter- est was taken in the fight in Winnipeg between Joseph Martin (Lib.), author of the bill abolishing separate schools in Manitoba, and Hugh John MacDon- ald, son of Canada’s former premier, Sir John A. MacDonald. MacDonald won, his personal popularity carrying him through. The general result shows even more disastrously for the gov- ernment. Conservatives, 65; Liberals, 98; Patrons, 2; Independents, 7; leav- ing 41 seats to be still heard from. If these seats follow the complexion of the last election Mr. Laurier, the Lib- eral leader, will assume office with a majority of 20 votes, not counting the 9 independents which would largely gravitate to the winning side. ‘The Conservatives concede that they have met their Waterloo. Ottawa, June 25.—At an early hour this morning returns show that the government is badly beaten and Laur- ier will have a majority in every prov- ince of the dominion except New Brunswick. His working majority in the new house over all will exceed 30.

Peoria, l., June 25. — The Illinois Democratic convention was composed almost entirely of free silver adher- ents, and the few gold men made no attempt at a demorstration. ‘The con- vention was an enthusiastic one, and Goy. Altgeld received an ovation. He made a speech declaring that he did not want a renomination, but he was nevertheless renomirated, and that by a rising vote. The ticket was com- pleted as follows: Lieutenant govern- or, M. C. Crawford; secretary of state, Finnis E. Downing; auditor, W. F. Beck; treasurer, E. C. Pace; attorney general, George A. Trude; university trustees, Julia H. Smith, R. B. Morgan, M. W. Graham. The platform declared for free coin- age at 16 to 1 without waiting for an international agreement. The money plank contained nearly 600 words and denounced the bond sbarks of Wall street and all gold standard believers. It was loudly applauded. The next plank declared for a tariff for revenue only and denounced the McKinley law. ‘The interference of the government by injunction and by troops in local at- fairs was denounced as unconstitution- al. The administraticn of Gov. Alt- geld was approved and commended in the highest terms. The revenue sys- tem of Illinois was pronounced a mon- strosity and should be changed. The last legislature was denounced as a disgrace, as also was the flag law. An amendment to the federal laws was recommended for an income tax. The national delegates to Chicago were instructed to support only such candidates as would be in sympathy with this platform. The delegates at large were also instructed to vote as a unit. A minority report was offered op- posing the plank which instructed the delegates at large to vote as a unit. ‘The minority report was laid on the table and the platform as read was adopted by a viva voce vote. Winter, the Mavi. New York, June 25.—The reorganiza- tion managers of the Northern Pa- cific railway have selected for the pres- idency of the reorganized company E, W.

Stillwater, June 25. — Dr. Burnside Foster of St. Paul came over to Still- water to see and identify the two murderers of Hayes and Paul at Wy- oming. The doctor, his head still showing the bruises from his sanguin- ary encounter, seated himself in the sheriff’s office at the county jail, and George Kelly, the elder and more hardened outiaw, was first called in. He was subjected to a most rigid ex- amination, and the doctor was con- vinced that he was one of the despe- radoes. At the time of the murder Kelly’s face was disguised by a ban- danna handkerchief of peculiar pat- tern. One was found in his pocket when captured and was fully identi- fied by Dr. Foster. During the in- terview Kelly maintained a stubborn silence when questioned concerning the crime or else would answer: “It would not do me any good to say anything about it; you would not if you were in my place, would you?” Dr. Foster then said: “Kelly, if you want to say anything to me in private L assure you it will remain secret with me.” ' After thinking this over for a few minutes the prisoner answered: “Just step this way for a minute.” A private conversation ensued for five minutes or more, Kelly calling the doctor back to a parting word. Just what this conversation was no one but the doctor and Kelly knows, but Dr. Foster remarked afterward that Kelly was breaking down under the shadow of his terrible crime. James Cunningham, alias Arthur Johnson, the younger outlaw, who seemed to have played a minor part in the tragedy, talked freely and in effect the same as yesterday. Dr. Foster confirmed his statement that he was outside the building at the time and took no part in the shooting. Kelly is evidently the man who shot Hayes and Paul. Mysterious Shooting. St. Paul, June 24.—Will J. Doran, son of the mayor, and Frank H. Dayton had a miraculous escape from being shot yesterday when a bullet came crashing through the plate glass win- dow in the front of Mayor Doran's fuel office, passed right between then, though they were not more than a toot apart, struck the safe, glanced around behind Dayton and landed in a cuspidor on the opposite side. For a moment Mr. Doran thought he was shot, for a piece of the shattered glass struck him with such force on the hip that it seemed as if a bullet had pen- etrated his thigh. When Le put down his hand and found no blood he felt greatly relieved. Whence the bullet came remains a mystery. Ratification at Minneapolis Hall. Minneapolis, June 24.—At a ratifica- tion meeting last evening under the auspices of the Union League at Ex- position hall, there was a collection of political celebrities on the programine. The distinguished chief executive of Pennsylvania, Gov. Hastings, headed the list of bright and shining lights to address the public, and Senator Davis, W. R. Merriam, ©. A. Pillsbury, R. G. Evans and Judge Torrance weve among the others who spoke. Drowning Feared. Minneapolis, June 25.—John Gibson, 808 Third avenue north, and Paul Vinton, 306 Aldrich avenue north, aged fourteen years each, left home Monday afternoon, saying that they were going swimming at Cedar lake. The boys had not returned this morn- ing, and it is feared that both were drowned. Neither had ever manifest- ed a desire to run away, and their parents have little hope of seeing them alive agai Fire in Minneapolis. Minneapolis, June 25.—At 11 o'clock last night one of the hottest fires the department has had this year broke out in the Fitterling block. at 623 and 625 Nicollet avenue, occupied by 'L. Jeffrey & Co.'s carpet and furnishing store. The fire spread through the four-story building. entailing a loss of some $30,000, as near as could be as- certained. The Icss is covered by in- surance, amounting to some $20,000 on the building and $35,000 on stock. Cody Arrested Again. St. Paul, June 24.—To-day Deputy Sheriffs Bates and Dash of St. Louis county passed through the city on their way to Stillwater, where they re- arrested Samuel F. Cody, accused of forgery. Cody was sentenced to the penitentiary for tive years, but the supreme court held that the indict- ment on which he was tried did not state a sufficient cause for action, and he, was accordingly ordered to be re- leased. Now County Attorney Arbury of Duluth intepds to have him rein- dicted before the next grand jury.

St. Paul, June 24.—Paul Schetfner, shot by his father, was reported much better to-day at the city hgsyital. ‘he syinptoms of pneumonit\that had caused anxiety Sunday, had almost disappeared. Paul was able to receive nourishment and was sutfering much less pain. The bullet was apparently lodged in the left lung, where it is apt to become encysted. The young man’s surgeons haye, therefore, much hope that he will recover.
