LAST LIBKARY LECTURE DELIVERED IN THE HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING. Pulled a Revolver and Made a Scene In liroker'i OHIre.

MINNEAPOLIS, March scene of tue wildest excitement and terror was enacted In tbe rooms of the Commerce and Com- missiou company, on the first floor of the Guaranty Building and Ixwin company's building, when Attorney B. H. Clay, who has been operating somewlmt extensively, became greatly excited and led a revolver upon Manager Clarke. It was just as the market was closing the last reports were icing received. Mr.

Clarke was seated at his desk, and his nsRistant, Mr. Littlefield, was setited near him.

and drawing a loaded revolver he rushed up to Manager Clarke and demanded settlement of the money which lie thought due him from the transactions. Mr. Clarke informed that he wns entitled to no money, whereupon Clay cocked the gun and went a step nearer Clurke.

Henry Houck Greeted by a Large Number of His Friends and Admirers. The last entertainment arranged bj the library committee of the Lebanoi high school was given last eveniuc. The large room in the high school building was well filled with au appreciative atK responsive audience. And without it tbe least reflecting upon the entertain menta tbat pieceded this we believe it was tbe most enjoyable of all. Mr Frank S.

Beokerja member of the board of school controllers, had charge of tbe eotai taioment and soon after o'clock it was opened with Ringing "Our Land is Free," in which all present were invited to join. After that Hiss Lizzie Meily, a school teacher, sang very acceptably, "She wandered down the mountain side," in which the rich, clear tones of her voice rang out very sweetly. Mr. Becker then introduced our esteemed fellow townsman, HOD. Henry Uouck, who for more tbau an hour delighted the audience with his quaint humor, interesting reminiscence.

touching pathos and sublime oratory. lie carried his hearers back to the days wben he was a boy working on tbe farm, lemming the shoemaker's trade, his first examination and application for a school, hii election at the age of 23 as county superintendent, "the youngest and handsomest in the State," and alluding iu a humorous, manner to the trials, struggles knd disappointments, as well as the joy and happiness, which alternately made up his lile, as they do of everyone who starts low down in life and has an ambition to make something of himself. Mr. Houck has a frank, open, honest hearted way of speaking to his audience. He speaks and acts he- fore his hearers just as he is in everyday life and consequently be wins them from tbe outstart and holds them to the end as if by magic.

Young boys aud girls and aged men and women were the ex tremes of his audience, but from the oldest to the youngest, all were intensely interested and eat under a charm until the last words were spoken and the spell was broken. Scarcely bad tbe speaker taken his seat when Hon. John W. Killinger sprang to his feet under the great enthusiasm that prevailed and offered a hearty vote of thanks to tbe distinguished lecturer, who is an honor to the work in which he is engaged as well as to tbe county which gave him birth. The motion was unanimously adopted.

Messrs. Emerson Ileilman ar.d J. G. Bonn then played a violin duet, accompanied by Miss Hrotberline ou the piano. Mr.

Becker briefly stated the object for which the course of lectures had been arranged and was gratified iu being able to state tt at more than the amount hoped for had been realized, so that now valuable additions can be made to the High school library. lie expressed his thanks aud those of the committee to the sentlemeu who bad lectured and others who had aided in raisiug this sum of money for the library.
