SATURDAY, JULY 5, 1902. The attitude of the big mitters of Min neapolis toward the cause of public morality suggests the couplet about when the devil was sick. The people of the state, however, will forgive that particular devil, even if he lapse into his original bad habits, if only he re mains good and tells all he knows now about his complicity with police offi cers. THE DAY WE DO NOT CELEBRATE Fourth of July celebrations are al most obsolete. Except for the dis tracting noises of small boys equipped with explosives, and occasional holiday picnics, the day is regarded as merely one from which all who can cease from labor. The day has no intensely patriotic features common to the an niversary of our youth. It is a fact, a lamentable fact—and It has been brazenly proclaimed by Republicans on the floor of the United States senate—that we have outgrown the declaration of independence, and consequently there is no excuse or justification for observing the Fourth of July as a day for awakening the latent patriotism of our people. In a portion of the United States territory sustaining a population of 10,000.000 souls, the declaration cannot l>e read, and no man or woman in the United States who indorses the Re publican policy of forcibly annexing the Philippine islands will care to re fresh his memory by reading the fam ous document. Hence, half our peo ple, or more, have let die In their hearts, for party sake, the immortal principles set forth in the grandest political document ever penned by mortal man. Our more than century of history is repudiated, our ancestors maligned by inference if not by word for winning liberty for their country. If liberty was good, and is good, for the United States it would be good for any other civilized country. If liberty is good for Cuba it would be good for the Philippines. If denial of inde pendence justified our forefathers in going to war, justified the Cubans in going to war, it justifies the Filipinos in going to war. Among all the 80,000,000 of people in the United States yesterday there were not more speakers than you could count on the fingers of your hands who spoke glowingly of the spirit and work of the immortal Washington and the immortal Jefferson. Not one, per haps, exclaimed with Patrick Henry, "Give me liberty or give me death!" It was the martyred Lincoln who said a "nation which denies liberty to another people cannot long, under a Just God, retain their own." It was the martyred McKlnley who laid he spoke "not of forcible annexa tion, for that under our code of morals would be criminal aggression, and is not to be thought of." Spirits of the immortal dead, be seech an avenging God that He with hold His wrath yet awhile that thitf people may return to the "right prin ciples," from which they have departed under the leadership of Republican politicians. It really does not matter how anyone regards the reciprocity plank of the Republican platform—whether as a re pudiation of the beet sugar humbug or as a repudiation of Roosevelt and rec iprocity. It is, like every other plank, a lie—poorly told. w ,_ REAL AND SPURIOUS RECIPROC ITY. According to Walter Wellman, the correspondent of the Chicago Record- Herald the friends of the beet sugar interest in congress have advised President Roosevelt that if he will not discuss the Cuban question in his ioithcoming tour they will vote for reciprocity next winter. The same gen tleman, who appears to have unusual sources of information, also discusses the declarations of the Minnesota Re publican platform and declares that the supposed friendliness of that docu ment toward tariff reform is due to the influence of Senator Nelson. The battle of beet sugar is not yet ended. It is a battle that really might os well never have been inaugurated, so far as relates to any substantial good results that will come from it to any of those engaged in it in any event, save alone Oxnard and his in terests. It is indeed a poor substitute to offer the people of Minnesota for the reciprocity which the Republican pai ty in this state, largely under the inspiration of Senator Nelson and the Pioneer Press, have been promising for ever twenty years past. President Roosevelt will not lay down to the beet sugar people as he luid down at the outset of his admin istration to the tariff-bred trusts. He is too clever a man not to force the fighting when there is so much for him to gain and for his enemies within his party to lose. He has committed him self and his administration to the promise that ntxt winter will see the 2(- per cent Cuban legislation passed If necessary, against the opposition of the insurgents. The only really important public question involved in the prevailing Re publican controversy regarding so called reciprocity with Cuba and the attitude thereon of our own congres sional delegation is the one whether a serious movement of tariff revision cr real reciprocity will spring from it in the immediate future. Our delega tion showed that they had not the po litical sense to make use of the op portunity which came to them to pro mote both tariff revision and real re ciprocity. If they go the full length oC their present position they will take up the fight for tariff revision in the house and for the pending reciprocity treaties in the senate, when the session opens in December. They are sure, however, to find in the interval that they have little sustalnment of their beet sugar contentions to look for out side their immediate constituencies, even if they escape defeat at the polls. In ihis situation the duty of the Democratic party all over the country seems quite plain. Of all the issues under consideration the inter-related issues of £>c tariff and the trusts are those on which public attention is fastened. They are the product not only of political controversy, but of the economic conditions whkh are in existence as the outcome or trust dom ination in all the industries to which the so-called protective tariff applies. All the conventions of the party thus far seem to have recognized this truth. Where the free silver note is heard it is on a minor key. The com ing congressional elections must be fought on the live issues of tariff, trusts and imperialism. For the aid which the so-called insurgents lent in producing this result the country owes them something, but Tt Is not to be imposed on by the claim that through the lying Minnesota state platform or otherwise their willingness to fight the battle of tariff reform is made mani fest. That was a clever way in which that Indiana judge stated the case of the Chicago Board of Trade, when he said that its members pray to the Lord on Sundays, and prey on the public every other day; but he might have added that others more morally pretentious than the grain speculators are charge able with the same weakness. There was some difficulty in getting at the true inwardness of that offer by the Canadian Pacific to a labor leader of $25,000 and a life position of $5,000 a year. But the mystery has been cleared by the published fact that the man fixed up a big strike for that corporation, winning "a great victory" for the men. Whether they are to be regarded as cause or only consequences, the erup tions down in the West Indies seem very nearly related to the continued storms and floods which prevail this side of the Alleghanies. The man who Is too good to comply with the rules pf an organization dur ing his life ought not to expect that the organization will regard him after his death as good enough to pay in surance on his life. That indorsement which Senator Spooner got from his La Follette friends would seem to be something, like that which Roosevelt and reciproc ity received from Oxnard's friends In this state. Missouri has not won many distinc tions in the past generation or two; but its lasting fame is now assured since one of its great men has solved the puzzle of making bricks without straw. The difference between Prohibition politicians and others in Illinois la this, that the cold water people seem to make the money contributions and the other fellows seem to collect them. If the strike of the Chicago boiler makers is not effective of any other good purpose, it will at least give the eardrums of the people living near tha deserted shops a rest. If the people are really smashing machinery In Russia because it brings starvation to the laborer, a school house or two along side the factories might furnish the true remedy. The young Denver woman who com mitted suicide in order to become no torious must be regarded as having paid the full price f6r her whistle. Natural History Mistake.

FAUtr 61,933,r SATURDAY, JULY S, 1902. lamentation of the Man Who i&eofrs a Coat AN "OLD SCHOOL BACHELOR AT THE LAKE A St. Paul bachelor, who has not been reconstructed on the modern plan, gives the following: description of the shocks he received during a visit to a friend at White Bear: "The other day I went out to White Bear and spent a night with friends on the- island. It was the first time I had been to a summer resort this year, and I learned quite a bit about lake man ners, and incidentally my elderly ner vous system received several shocks from which it has not yet recovered. I arrived in time for dinner and at the same time came several young men— ■ very young men they seemed to me— evidently familiar friends of the fam ily. There are two daughters of the house and one son. I was invited by the hostess as an old friend of heis (I used to take her to balVs when she was the age of her girls), and the very young mcci were friends of the pretty daughters and the son. The first shock I received wsa when I found I was the only man at the table with his coat on. The next shock was that nobody seem ed to notice it. The host was in town, so I sat in his place and regarded the young people with a fatherly eye, and I did the carving. The third shock was when I discovered that the boys had no manners, and nobody seemed to no tice that. The fourth shock was that I distinctly heard one of the young men (he had a pink stock round his neck) say to the one next to him in a stage whisper, 'Make the old guy give me some more chicken,' and the fifth shock came when I realized that I was the 'old guy' in question. I resolved to keep a stern eye on these creatures. They all had on shirtwaists, the one with the stock had ruffles down the front of his and he carried his hand kerchief up his sleeves. The only other man I ever saw do that was Richard le Gallienne when he lectured here last winter. Enough said. "After-dinner shocks followed in rapid succession. The hostess suggest ed that the boys take the girls to the hop across the lake. There was a si lence for a moment, then, without any enthusiasm, and rather lamely, I thought, they asked the girls to go. The girls seeming to understand matters, gave their mother a significant glance and refused flatly. The boys rose with alacrity and departed without show of regret. I was mystified. The mother asked the girls for an explanation, and then I was due to receive another shock. The girls said —and girls are awfully wise these days—that they knew the boys didn't want them to go, that they wanted to go alone and dance with a lot of pretty shop girls from town, who, like as not, they had ar ranged to meet, and the daughters of their hostess would have spoiled their arrangements, and the boys could not have sought the society where they undoubtedly belong. The fact that they were the guests of the lady with the daughters and that the latter were cut off from enjoying the dance be cause of the beastly selfishness of these things in shirtwaists, had never crossed their minds and the girls seem ed to take it all as a matter of course. They were really accustomed to such manners. The mother made no com ment, except she said to me that she was glad she had only one son, girls were so much easier to jnanage. I sighed, I see I am hopelessly out of this -age, but I summoned courage at last to tell the girls that they were foolish to encourage such selfishness in the boys, and in a very small voice I declared that if they would get ready I would take them to the hop. I added that I was not an adept at the two-step, or the two-and-a-half-step. I still waltz ed. But the girls jumped at the idea of going as such a good joke on the shirt-waisted ones, so we went. My cup of joy was full when I saw the look of dismay on the faces of the boys who were dancing with 'Mame' and 'Lot' and 'Pearl.' They came over in a sheepish way and asked the girls to dance, but with the most magnifi cent manner they were told not to leave their friends. Shock No. 16 when I perceived that I was the only man at the dance who had a coat on. More shocks came next morning— which was unusually warm—when the boys appeared at breakfast with their sleeves rolled to their elbows, no col lars or ties, the neckband of their shirts \ turned in, and handkerchiefs about their pretty necks. I was in such a state that I gave thanks for the handkerchiefs and devoutly hoped that they would not take off anything more. I came back to town with a sad feel ing that I must have lived some hun dred years ago and recently been dug up. I have never worn a neglige shirt In my life nor ever appeared before a lady without my coat. But I plainly see that it is time for me to die. I'm known now at the lake as the man who wears a coat. A Practical Bride. The latest thing in weddings is the result of the practicability of the times and is evidenced by the forethought of expectant brides in preparing a list of gifts need£d or that would be welcome, and the leaving i; at the local jewelers. This was done not long ago by a St. Paul bride and was of great assistance in suggesting to friends what to give her and doing away with the fear of duplicates which are so apt to be sent on an occasion of that kind. There is no longer any danger of a bride re ceiving twelve dozen coffee spoons all marked, which did actually occur at a local wedding not iong ago. This has been changed, and now all one has to do Is to consult the taste of the bride as indicated by her thoughtfulness, and purchase something that she really de sires. This new idea will take well, and will do away with all anxiety on the part of friends that one is giving what is not wanted or apt to be duplicated. A well known St. Paul woman and §^ SMBin^'^^ pti'M^-m, THERE IS SOME ADVANTAGE IN NOT HAYING ANY FOURTH TO CELEABAHL club president was rifling down on a Grand avenue ca* tfo> other day and overheard two woinerPwho sat in front of her discussing h£r recent appear ance at a club meeting. "I thought she looked well and pre sided well," said tfie first woman. "Oh, I don't know," said the other, "I didn't think her presiding was any thing wonderful, and as for her ap pearance, that dress she had on never cost more than 50 cents a yard." The woman behind leaned over and tapped the speaker on the arm. "Pardon me, madam," she said, "but it only cost 25 cents." The two women got off at the next corner. Jolly Bachelor Girl Dinner. A dinner given for a recent St. Paul brido, which ma ttakfuo in it; way, has been kept very quiet. One of the bridesmaids gave the affair, and to it she invited only girls, and the prepara tions were made behind closed doors and were intended as a surprise for the bride. When she arrived dressed in proper dinner attire, she was greeted by ten young women, all gowned in the stiffest of white duck, with straight collars and black ties. They formed in two and marched the bride into the dining room, where the table was dec orated in bride roses, while over the chair of the guest of honor was a wedding bell. And not an imitation bell, but a real one, which the hostesa rang for every course, and also when the toasts—which were original and extremely personal—were considered too long. The fun was kept lip very late, and the odd features of the dinner made it the only thing of its kind ever known to have been given in St. Paul. This custom of farewell to the bride by her bachelor girl friends will rrobably be followed by others, and is certainly as reasonable as the stag affairs given by or for the groom on similar occa sions. Hiring a Cook in Society. There are two women living on Sum mit avenue who, for the purposes of this story may be - known as Mrs. A. and Mrs. B. . Mrs. A. has an unim peachable social position, but not very much money. Mrs. B. has the money and not the social position. The story goes that Mrs. B. had'nevar been.called upon by Mrs. A., but was desirous that that happy event might occur, so when one day she saw Mrs. A. aproaching the house she though, her wishes y in that direction were about to be con summated. The housemaid, not being available at that moment to go to the door, Mrs. B. went herself. "Mrs. 8., said Mrs. A., "I understand that your cook may leave you and I called to see her and engage her." Mrs. B. gave her a stony glare. "My cook," she said, "receives her company in the kitchen, and if you will walk round to the back door you will doubt less find her." -" BOUNDLESS OPENING FOR AMERICAN GOODS Representative of Tobacco Trust Dis cusses Outlook for Trade in Other - Lands. , "The average American has no concep tion of American commercial activity' m Europe and Asia at the present time," says Edward J. Graham, a representative of the American Tobacco corporation, lately returned from India and other far eastern points where he has been inves tigating trade conditions, and who yester day passed through St. Paul. "American manufacturers are carrying on a great invasion of the Orient today, which .is vastly extending our foreign trade, but even yet we have not com menced to realize the boundless oppor tunities for American interests in those countries. The next ten yars is going to see the business life of the far east revolutionized by the American commer cial influence. 5 ', v "People are slow to believe that Ameri can goods are so infinitely superior in ' general ito foreign-made manufactures that in order for America to control the situation it is only necessary to obtain a foothold and do business on a competi tive basis. Foreign peoples, especially Europeans, are slow to acknowledge American superiority, and they will ; not acknowledge it except on proof, but when they have the opportunity to \ put the merits of their own wares in comparison with American goods to the test they are ready to do business with us. "One thing the American manufacturer is learning, "and that is that in order to do business in foreign countries he must have his representative there. A demon stration of merit is demanded, and for this reason the American drummer is on the threshold of a wide foreign experi ence. Daily, New York manufacturing concerns are calling in. their best men to send them to the Orient to build up their business in India and other coun tries. . • .% ; "American machinery especially has a great field there. The machinery made in no other country can compete with the American. Americans are installing electric light plants and railways and similar institutions Yin India today. American harvesters will find a ready sale in many European countries, where they do things at present in a most primitive fashion. No one can understand how far behind us in these respects the older countries are. One must see, condi tions to believe. There is an almost un limited field abroad ; for every article of American make." ■ —. m . DROWNED IN LAKE CALHOUN. T. W. Emerson Jumped for Oar and Boat Drifted Away. ' One of the saddest Fourth of July acci dents was that which resulted in the drowning of T. W. Emerson in Lake Cal houn, at Minneapolis, last night. Mr. Emerson, who lived in San Francisco, and was rooming on Eighth street south, went out on the lake in the evening to enjoy a boat ride. While drifting about the lake one of the oars fell out of the boat. Emerson Jumped after the oar, and while he was in the water the boat drifted away from him so that he was unable to get to it, and he drowned before help could reach him. , , WALES ACTS AS HOST On Behalf of the King He Receives Indian Princes Now in London SCENE IS A UNIQUE ONE The Native Royalty, Attired in the Gorgeous Costumes of Their Land, Outshine the Dresses of the # Society Leaders. LONDON, July 4.—The Prince of Wales, in behalf of King Edward, re ceived the Indian princes in London at the Indian office tonight. The en tertainment was one of the most bril liant ever witnessed in London. Queen Alexandra and the royal family were present and occupied a private box overlooking the main hall. The guests of the evening included all the royal representatives of the coronation of the king who are still in London, as well as the greater number of English nobility and the notable personages of London. The decorations of the build ing were magnincent and cost, includ ing the furniture and hangings, not far from £50,000. The flowers alone cost £3,000. The great reception hall was transformed by palms, ferns and orchids into a semblance of an Indian garden. A feature of the decorations was an im mense ceiling cover, painted to rcjpre rent the Indian firmament, in which the stars and constellations were ac curately depicted. Electric lights, be hind the cover, were utilized to make each star scintillate in a realistic man ner. Many Lights Lend Brilliancy. Three thousand incandescent elec tric lights were employed in the illumi nation of the building. The rooms were cooled by mountains of ice. cloth ed with masses of rare plants and flowrs. f hree thousand guests were invited to attend the reception. All the gen tlemen present wore uniforms or court dress and the ladies were clad in most elaborate and bejeweled costumes, but they were all out-dazzled by the gor geous attire and the profusion of jewels worn by the Indian princes. Such a picturesque spectacle had never been witnessed in London since the visit of the sultan of Turkey, thirty years ago. So many people who applied for invitations were disap pointed that the India office "has decid ed to illuminate the rooms for their benefit tomorrow night. Indian Guard for Prince. The Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at 11 o'clock and were re ceived by a guard of honor from the Indian contingent. The procession formed at the foreign office. It was headed by members of the Indian council and marched through the cor ridors, which were lined with Indian troops, to the India office. While the Princess of Wales remained on the balcony, the prince traversed the length of the hall to the dais, where all the Indian potentates were assembled. There, under a crimson canopy bearing the royal arms and supported by four dusky Indians clothed In white, the Prince of Wales received the presenta tion of swords to the king's represen tative by the Indian officers. The cere mony was followed by a supper, music and social intercourse between those present. The reception lasted until a very late hour. King's Progress Is Satisfactory. The progress of King Edward con tinues satisfactory. Beginning July 6 only one bulletin a day concerning his majesty's condition will be issued. This will be posted at 9 o'clock in the morn ing, and the arrangement will be con tinued until his majesty is entirely con valescent. The fact that Queen Alexandra, In company with the Duchess of Aosta, Prince Waldemar of Denmark and Prince George of Greece, drove out this afternoon is taken as a sign of the king's satisfactory condition. This was the first recreation of this kind that the queen has indulged in since his majesty was taken 111. The king is allowed to read a good deal now, and he enjoys looking at the newspapers. He expressed amusement lately art some of the sensational and detailed reports of the operation in the press. AT THE GRAND OPERA HOUSE. "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" will be given for the last time at the Grand opera house this afternoon and this evening. This wonderfully weird and vivid drama has never been presented better in St. Paul. Mr. George Faw cett, who plays the Mansfield role, has been highly praised for his thrilling portrayal, graphic yet at all times highly artistic. This will be Mr. Faw cett's final appearance in St. Paul. Next week, commencing tomorrow evening, Miss Haswell and the stock company will appear in "Romeo and Juliet." Miss Haswell, of course, will be the Juliet, while Mr. Gilmore will be the Romeo. Next week will be the farewell week of this company at the Grand. And Your Relative Size.

Fair Sex Does Not Take to Model Men With Nothing to Be Reformed—Ex- periences of King Arthur Illustrate Fate Likely to Be Met by These Paragons. "I am a young man of twenty-five and am in love with a young woman of twenty. I do not smoke, chew, loaf drink or swear. In fact, I am regard ed as a model young man, yet the young woman does not love me. What would you suggest?" The above communication was sent to the editor of a "Cupid's column." We are not the editor, yet we fancy the young man's case hopeless. Of course the obvious remedy would be the cultivation of a redeeming vice. Yet we fancy it is the one remedy that would not. appeal to a model young man. One's sympathies naturally go out to the young woman. To have a model young man in love with one even must be a trial. To marry him would be— But apparently the young woman has refused him and very sens ibly too, we think. To walk through life forever accompanied by a "model" would eventually grate on the least sensitive nerves. If there is any pedes tal to be occupied a girl wants to oc cupy it. What fun would there be in' marrying a young man with nothing about him to be reformed? Model young men have invariably failed to play successfully the role of husband King Arthur of the circular table was first. Queen Guinevere knew there was absolutely no danger of his flirting with her pretiest serving woman. She knew, too, that even after one of those gatherings about the round table he would be able to manage his legs suc cessfully. Naturally she lost interest in him. Lancelot was the inevitable tertium quid and— But everybody knows the story. Yes, we are sure the young man's case is hopeless. SOCIAL. Mrs. Robert H.

Complexions and Cold Cream. — No really pretty woman—or one who remained pretty for a very long time ever came in from a day's shopping and washed tier face vigorously with, soap and water. If fastidious, she took a bit of fine linen and. dipping it into «. jar of cold cream, rubbed it over her face. Let ting it remain on a few minutes, she mopped it off with a dry piece of cloth as fine and soft as the first one. Then followed the necessary face washing, and after the face washing came the dipping of the hands in a tepid mixture of benzoin annd hot wa ter to tighten the skin a little. Much depends upon this benzoin flavored water bath, for it is the one that keeps wrinkles at bay. When it is over there comes the final anointing, with cold cream, and for this one has a specially prepared jar of the article. A certain woman who is noted for her complexion keeps no less than three jars of cream on her dressing table. One, a large, open pot, with big top, is for the removal of grime.

T., July s.—On an elec tric railroad near Gloversville laat night two crowded cars collided, kill ing fifteen persons and Injuring twen ty-nine. For a distance of four miles north of Gloversville the Mountain Lake rail way, an electric road, connecas Glov ersville with a picnic ground. Yester day being the Fourth of July, the place waa crowded with pleasure seekers. Last night the cars were filled with people coming home from the grounds. At 10:30 o'clock, two and and half miles north of Gloversville, there was a head-on collision between two heavily loaded cars. The Mountain Lake railway follows the side of a mountain, the grade be ing about 1,000 feet in four miles. Com ing down the incline the motorman of one car, carrying about seventy people, lost control of the car and it aeiuired a frightful velocity. Then it crashed into a car ascending the mountain. The impact was terrific, but for a few mo ments neither car left the track. The ascent of the one being overcome by the rush of the other, the crushed cars with their burden of human victims went down the incline. Then the mass left the rails and tho dead and wounded were hurled togeth er with the debris of the wrecked cars down the mountain side. At 2:30 o'clock ten bodies, mangled beyond recognition, and many injured, had ben taken out. The latter are be ing cared for at the Littaner hospital. It will be impossible for several hours to compile a list of the dead and in jured, but there axe more women than men.
