Th article, published as a telegram from the St. Paul DWpatch in your issue of April 22nd, would make it appear that Joe F. Willard was an innocent vie-tlm, which quite the contrary wis the case. It was he that deliberately planned this clever-(?) trick to cheat the people out of three and oiie-fcalf week's salary.

FIRE JEWISH The small frame building 16x16 used as tool house, and by the sexton of the Jewish cemetery was destroyed by fire last night' at. 10 o'clock. The brigade had to lay 2 000 fet of hose. It was caused by the fire running through the long dry grass, which prevails In the cemetery.

44 A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss. tf This is merely another way of saying thai careless men and women fail to get what is due them. Ordinarily the 94 moss is con- strued to mean wealth or Denejtt ofsome kind, but the attainment of any of these depends upon health. And health depends upon what? The condition frf. the blood, and but few realize this fact.

You cannot be well when your blood is impure. Impurities of the blood clog every organ. Hood's Sarsaparilla purifies by taking out the vicious elementa; and leaving the blood aa it should be the feeder of life. Pimples-" Headaches, nose bleed and pimples made me so weak that I could not work. Hood's Sarsaparilla gave me good sleep, strength, and cured me." Arthcr m.

Last Entertainment, Wednesday Even- nlng, April ,26, George Kennan, the famous explorer Sind lecturer will dose the course with one of his thrilling and fascinating talks on and adventure.

In the peace-suggesting surroundings of the First Baptist church Of Brooklyn, George Kennan last night carried a pacific audience through the strange i and thrilling experiences of his adventures in the mountains of the. Caucasus. He is dramatic, and dramatically discriminat ing, introducing nothing that will not force Itself on the attention of his hearers and maintain that attention from scene to scene till, in a well-rounded close, his story is endedv His exploration of the Caucasus was a brilliant and dar ing exploit, accomplished with no com-, panions Of his own race, "but- under the guidance of Djordjadsi, a Georian prince. and a train of his mountaineers. Besides the narration of his own adventures, Mr.

Kennan gave a splendid description of the natural scenery of the Caucasus, of its inhabitants, their otigln, their history, their manners and -customs, and their music. He recited translations of their poetry, and sang a song as he had heard it improvised'. His recital of how Scharnyl, the mountain leader, held the peak of Gunlb against the and how the mountain was finally stormed, the little garrison annihilated, and Scharnyl captured, was a battle story equal to any ever told by the lecturing war correspondents. New York Dally Tribune. Sale of seats begins Wednesday morning.
