Aevald-Review. By E. Kiley. GRAND RAPIDS - MINNESOTA. A woman's fads thrive on a man’s objections. The first step of knowledge is to know that we are ignorant. No man ever gets quite so close up to God as he does when his little child is sick. If you wake up some morning in the top of a tree please remember that the cyclone season is on. A Boston paper is trying to determine “«why men suicide.” When it finds out it should try to discover why men wedding. The new Chicago city directory gives the name and address of Mr. Yell. So long as he is not a college yell the pub- lic will not attempt to shut him up. It costs $5 to kiss a Georgia girl and $15 to kiss a Pennsylvania widow, and experienced men who have sampled stock in both states say the latter is worth the difference. I ee Quzoun-Ada, a port of the Caspian, which is the starting point of the Transcaspian railway, was visited by an earthquake some years ago, and since then it has become open to steam- ers which could not enter it before, owing to the shallow water. A dispatch from City of Mexico says the efforts on the part of physicians in charge of the insane hospitals for women to discover some safe narcotic which should produce sleep have re- sulted in bringing into daily use in that institution a simple remedy prepared from the seed of white zapote. It pro- duces a tranquil sleep and since it has been used no deaths from cerebral con- gestion have been known at the insti- tution. The latest available statistics re- garding the Bank of Spain state that on Sept. 30, 1895, its note circulation was 961,900,000 pesetas, against which it held 495,000,000 pesetas in gold and silver. On the same date the bank had private deposits of 410,800,000 pe- setas, and had advanced 175,700,000 pe- setas on mortgages and 132,400,000 pesétas on commercial paper. The Spanish treasury’s account with the bank was then over drawn 1,100,000 pesetas. ‘A Texas paper says that Texas is still third in hogs, of all ‘the states in the Union. In a few years she will be first. Iowa now comes first with 3,737,970, Missouri next with 3,074,329, and Texas third with 2,944,065. Texas has 659,403 more hogs than Ohio, 694,664 moye than Iflinois; Chan [,284,343 moye than Kansas ang 1,680,- ¥31 more than Nebraska. 4s eae pared with las year Iowa shows a de- “crease of 1,116,537, Missouri a de- crease of 95,082, Ohio a decrease of ‘171,964, Illinois a decrease of 143,579, Kansas a decrease of 16,765, Nebraska a decrease of 25,795 and Texas a de- crease of 91,054, which shows that this good state is still in the business of raising hogs, and with this year’s feed crop this will be amply demonstrated. A heathen sculptor, who had carved a colossal statue, continued so long at work upon the crown of the giant's head that his admirers grew impa- tient. “You are wasting your labor,” they said. “What need is there that you should chisel every hair? No one will ever look so high, and the pains you are taking will never be appre- ciated.” The sculptor only answered: “It must be perfect; the gods can see.” No better argument than the notice of Omniscience could be given for ob- scure perfection. Flowers come to fin- ished bloom and beauty in wilder- nesses where no eye of man ever look- ed. In the conduct of life small per- fections show character, for they spring from a higher fidelity than hu- man eye-service. “He that is faithful in little is faithful also in much.” One of the greatest storekeepers in the world has established what he terms a store cadet school for boys in his employ. All the boys between cer- tain ages are required to attend, or to show that they are pursuing studies elsewhere. ‘The school is held on two evenings in the week, and on school evenings supper is furnished free to the boys. The studies are similar to those pursued in business colleges,with instruction also in physical exercises. A little more than a year has passed ce Mr. Wanamaker began the ex- periment in his Philadelphia store, and the results are encouraging. In addi- tion to the direct results, there should be a further outcome—an increase in the number of those who, though they have to work for a living, refuse to listen to the thoughtless cry that rich men universally do not sympathize with, or sacrifice for the welfare of, the poor. A senator in congress has proposed an amendment to the rules of the sen- ate, excluding from the chamber former pers of that body who use their lege of admission to the floor to engage in lobbying. Coming from a person not a member of the senate, such an implication against former oc- cupants of seats in the highest legisla- _tive body in the republic might be dis- missed as worthy of credence. But jt is presumable that Senator Hale knew what he was doing when he pro- posed the amendment, and if it does pot become a rule, more is the pity. , the University of California with a yal- je ang the york of J, THE NEWS RESUME) DIGEST OF THE NEWS FROM ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD. 4 Comprehensive Review of the Important Happenings of the Past Week Culled From the Tel- egraph Reports—The Notable Events at Home and Abroad That Have Attracted Attention, The Nation’s Capital.

"BLOODSHED CLASH BETWEEN THE STRIKERS AND DEPUTY SHERIFFS, Serious Trouble Almost Precipitated by the Sheriff and His Deputies While Exceuting the Injunctions of the Court—Injury Inflicted en One of the Strikers by a Deputy Sheriff Enrages His Comrades. Pittsburg, Aug. 14.—Injunctions by the court have put a stop to marches by the striking miners against the New York & Cleveland Gas Coal company for a time at least. But in the execu- tion of the injunctions the sheriff and his deputies narrowly escaped precipi- tating serious trouble. As it was, the first blood of the strike was shed. Henry Stewart, one of the deputies, struck Jacob Mott, a drummer of the McDonald band, with the edge of a brass horn and cut a severe gash above hiseye. The sight of the blood wrought up the 1,000 idle miners to such a pitch that a desperate conflict was imminent. The deputies also were excited and noisy. The strikers were jeering and yelling and urging a fur- ther rush down the road. In the crowd there were enough angry strikers to annihilate four times the force of of- ficers on the ground. Capt. Belling- ham, Sheriff Lowry, Chief Deputy James Richards and Supt. De Armitt were the only cool men in the assem- blage. To them belongs the credit of avoiding a riot. When Bellingham saw there was danger of his men get- ting geyond his control he commanded a halt and addressed himself to the task of restraining the more belliger- eut. So well were his efforts directed that he soon had restored order. Sher- iff Lowry had a difficult task to per- form but he handled it well, and by his coolness and good nature did much to neutralize the bitterness and strife invited by the behavior of his sub- ordinates. The strikers finally retired and marched back to their camp, where the officers held a conference with their attorney, and he adyised them to quit marching until the court had heard the arguments next Mon- day. President Dolan then issued or- ders that no marches should be made on any of the mines of the New York & Cleveland Gas Coal company until further orders, although a march may be made against other places. Two meetings will be held at Plum Creek at which addresses will be made by George Harris, of the Central Pennsyl- vania field; Mrs. Jones of Chicago, William Warner and Cameron Miller. In order to more thoroughly fortify his position Sheriff Lowry has sworn in twenty additional deputies. So long as the men simply camp where they are, without marching to the mines and interfering with the men going to and from work they will not be disturbed, ROS iis May Use Force. Coffien, Ill, Aug. 14.—Bradley’s army of striking miners still threaten the town. No attention was paid to the sheriff's proclamation ordering the strikers to leave the county, and the men are as defiant as ever. Sheriff Randle says if the strikers do not pag or disband he will force them to 0 so, APSE Pe PO WF) : Be, eee: Tha Modern Woodmen Scrap. Fulton, IL, Aug. 14.—The long stand- ing fight between this town and Rock Island for the location of the head- quarters of the Modern Woodmen of America culminated in a hand-to-hand fight between scores of partisans of the representative towns, in which a number of persons were seriously in- jured. —o— Troops Called For. Springfield, Aug. 14. — Gov. Tanner received a dispatch from Fulton ask- ing that troops be sent there immedi- ately to quell the riot among the mem- bers of the Modern Woodmen of “America.

It is re- ported that King Humbert approves the duel between the two princes on the ground that it will bring the quar- rel to a definite ¢lose.” ‘ Wrecked a Train. Dallas, Tex., Aug. 14. — The north- pound Katy train was wrecked near Caddo Mills, Tex., by some one remov- ing a fish plate and bending the rails. Every car but the rear sleeper was turned over.

Bryan was received here. Hotisetops sagged under the weight of thousands and every window where a view could be obtained was crowded with face. The crowd at the depot Was so dense that the police were ul- able to cope with it. On reaching the hotel Mr. Bryan made a brief address. Later in the day Mr. Bryan went to Walkersville, where a monster dem- onstration took place. He spoke at the race track. The track has been under the ban of labor unions because of a difference with the carpenters. Mr. Bryan declined to speak there until the boycott was declared off for this oc- casion. A GANG OF CRACKSMEN. The Northern Black Hills Infested by Thieves. Lead, S. D., Aug. 14.—It is very ap- parent that the Northern Hills is in- tested by a gang of professional safe crackers and burglars. The safe of the Black Hills & Fort Pierre freight de- pot was blown open, but it contained no money. The passenger depot of the same company was broken into, but the safe, which is an unusually large one, was not tampered with, probably because the beat of the night- watchman comes past the window in full tiew. At Terry the jewelry store owned by W. R. Dickinson of this city was broken into and all the best jew- elry, estimated at $900, was taken. A TEST CASE. Wisconsin Wants Minnesota Prison Made Goods Labeled.

The Gazette adds: “Their leaders seem to think that the fall of Canovas brings their oppor- tunity nearer. During the past week they have held many meetings to dis- cuss the best means of assisting their colleagues in Spain in the event of a rising occurring.” he Chevalier Lumbye, head of the Carlist club, in the course of an inter- view is quoted as saying: “The Carlists are highly organized throughout Spain. When Don Carlos next lands nothing but foreign inter- ference will prevent him from reach- ing the throne. There are 2,000 vol- unteers ready in England to fight for him.” —— * FUNERAL OF CANOVAS. All Madrid in Mourning for the Dead Premier. Madrid, Aug. 14. — The funeral of Senor Canovas del . Castillo was 2 most touching and solemn ceremony. All the troops of the garrison lined the . route along which the cortege moved; Pe the flags were lowered and the public ' buildings, embassies, consulates and clubs were heavily draped with crepe. More than a thousand wreaths were depesited in the death chamber.

WEYLER QUITS. Report That the Captain General Has Tendered His Resignation. New York, Aug. 14.—A dispatch to the Herald from Havana says: “I have learned on what seems tobe sé a the best authority that Capt. Gen. ~ Weyler has sent his resignation to Madrid. There is no doubt that the resicnation is due to the assassination of Senor Canovas, through whose per- sonal wishes Capt. Gen. Weyler was retained in Cuba. The report of Gen. Weyler’s resignation is a cause for satisfaction among Cuban sympa- thizers, who in the advent of another chief to the Spanish troops in Cuba see ‘ only relief from the policy of concen- tration.
