THE NOR
POOR MATRIMONIAL LUCK.
Experience of a North Dakota
Farmer in Advertising for
a Wife.
j Bpecial to The St. Paul Globe.
GRAND FORKS, N. D.. Feb. 7.—
Tho matrimonial papers have reaped a
harvest from this part of the West,
and the case of Bud Blunton, of Mc-
Lean county, shows that the advertise
ments aro usually answered. Bud ad
vertised for a wife and received a let
t« r from a lady in Minnesota. After a
short correspondence a ticket was sent
for the lady to make the trip to North
Dakota. She stopped at Bismarck,
and Bud was sent for. She was
'about forty years old and reg
**►"' Istered as Miss Hoffman. Blunton
did not arrive for two days, and then
he waited until morning to call. In
spite of the advice of friends he in
sisted on wearing: his Grand Army uni
form, and though sixty-five years old
he looked comfortable and much
younger. When they were Introduced
Miss Hoffman made one exclamation
and ran from the room. She left the
next day for home.
Again the columns of the matri
monial journal were used, and this
time a Minneapolis woman answered
the inquiry, with the result that they
were married last summer. She lived
with him a month and then returned
to Minneapolis. She was persuaded to
return to her husband, but about a
month ago she left a second time, and
now Mr. Hlunton has staited an action
for a divorce.
LIKE THE WHITE CITY.
The Trans-MiasiMippi Exposition at
Oraana Will Be Magiiift
eent.
Special to The St. Paul Globe.
MANKATO, Minn., Feb. 7— Ex-
Mayor Edgar Weaver, who accom
panied the Omaha fair commissioners
to Omaha last week, returned to his
home in this city yesterday, and states
• that the work of the exposition is be
ing carried out on a large seale — as
large as to be almost beyond belief.
The grounds and buildings are being
modeled after those of the world's
fair; a lagoon runs through the cen
ter of the grounds, and magnificent
white buildings are being erected on
iboth sides, and a boulevard between
the buildings and lagoon. He says
that, in all, $1,200,000 has been appro
priated by the city, county, state and
government, and that some states are
putting up buildings of their own. Min
nesota has made no appropriation, but
the commission will devise means of
raising $20,0000 or $2,"), 000 to see that
Minnesota is creditably represented.
HER NAME A BIRDEX.
Spanish < ountess Ha. It Cot in T.-o
at Forgot.
FARGO, N. D.. Feb. 7.— Saturday night
State's Attorney Fred Morrill secured a di
vorce for a distinguished Spanish lady. Cru
elty was the ground upon which the decree
was secured, and there was no fight made
on the suit by the husband.
The. plaintiff was Countess Maria de la
Coooepcion de la Cantera y Clark de Gobel
y Fernandez. The defendant was Juan C.
Gobel y Fernandez. They were married at
Madrid, in March, 15.2, and the event was
one of the social successes of the season. The
lady belongs to one of the oldest and wealth
iest families in Spain, and owns large estates
In both Cuba and Spain. Minister Woodford,
of the United States, resides in one of her
housis at Madrid, and the lady Is second ln
rank and wealth only to the family of the
premier. She came here several months ago,
accompanied by a maid, and seems to have
bad a mortal fear of publicity. She has
scarcely left her hotel since coming here, ex
cept to go to her attorney's office. After her
separation from her husband two years ago,
she spent some time in Florida, before decid
ing to come here for a divorce.
There are some interesting papers in the
Biiit, and a large number are on stamped pa
| per, and countersigned by a number of offl
, cials and United States representatives at
■ Madrid and Havana. One notably Interesting
document is the protest of the Catholic bish
op. Or. Manuel Santander y Frutos, of Ha
vana. He sent the attorneys for the plaintiff
a long article stating his objections to the
decree being granted, but as this was out of
his see, it does not seem to have affected the
result. His protest was at the solicitation of
the husband, who hated to be separated from
so much wealth. The countess will remain
here for some time, until she can arrange her
future.
BONDS BRING BIG PRICE.
Evidence That C unitnllsts Are Anx
ious to Invest.
BISMARCK. Feb. 7.— The anxiety of East
ern capital to invest in securities at a fair
per cent of interest is evidenced in the
sale of J40.0.0 of bonds by the trus:cc3 of th.
North Dakota hospital for the insane, which
■was negotiated at a premium ot $8,000. When
it is considered that these bonds are not
guaranteed by the state, which agrees only
to see that the annual payments of interest
are made, and that their payment at the
end of twenty years is conditioned upon the
receipt of enough money from the sale or
lease of 20,000 acres of lands, scattered
through all parts of the state, and belonging
to the insane hospital, it will be seen that
capital is anxious to invest, and has great
confidence in the ability and intention of the
Btate of North Dakota to pay Its abligations.

Jnst nt This Time.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.— An amend
ment of more than ordinary Impor
tance and significance at this time
was proposed in the senate today by
Mr. Morgan (Ala.) to the resolution of
fered a few days ago by Mr. White, of
California. Mr. White's resolution de
clared that it was the right of the peo
ple of Hawaii to maintain their own
form of government and the United
States ought in no wise to interfere
with it.
Mr. Morgan's amendment provides
distinctly for the annexation of the
Hawaiian islands, declaring that the
present government has a right to
make such cession to this country.
The presentation of a memorial pre
pared by the late Admiral Worden
elicited some interesting statements
regarding the historic fight in Hamp
ton Roads between the Monitor and
the Merrimac.
The senate was In executive session
during the remainder of the afternoon.
The Morgan amendment, which was
offered shortly after the senate met, Is
as follows:
That the republic of Hawaii, established
ln and based upon Its present constitution,
is a rightful government, and has been and
still Is recognized as such by the United
States of America, and by other great
powers, without any question by any na
tion of Ita rightful and sovereign Inde

aud recognized authority that fixes the
measure and the distribution of the rights
and powers of government in that republic,
"while said constitution remains in force.

stitution of the republic of Hawaii, and so

GERMAN DISCRIMINATION.
Nothing for Americans to Do but to
Await Developments.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.— Ambassador White,
at Berlin, has confirmed tho press reports
of the modification ot the decree ot the Ger
man government relative to the Importation
of fresh fruits. It Is said that now there Is
nothing to do on our part, but to watch the
workings of the decree, as a means of test
ing tho spirit in which it was received;
whether is was framed with the single pur
pose of keeping out diseased fruit, or wheth
er It was not a mere pretext to prevent the
compettition of our fruit with that of Ger
man production.
That the department has reason to suspect
the latter Is evidenced from the report that
comes to It from United States Consul Barnes
at Cologne, Germany, I n which the consul
points out gross discrimination by the local
German officials against American hams.
In connection with the subject of exclu
sion of American products from Germany, it
may be stated as a fact of interest that the
United States has had for some time past a
complaint against Germany, which it has
treated In a spirit of courtesy and patience in
marked contrast with the action of the Ger
man government in making this last exclu
sion decree, and putting it In operation with
out the slightest notice to our ambassador.
This complaint touches the Integrity of Ger
man wines.

WILLING TO FACE DEATH

of the Death of Cen. Blanco's
Dn-_hine Aide.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.— The presi
dent today transmitted to the house
the reports from Consul General Lee
relative to the execution of Col. Ruiz,
which the house called for by resolu
tion. These reports consist of two dis
patches to the state department from
Gen. Lee.
The first, under date of Dec. 21, Is in
the form of a narrative account of the
circumstances attending the execution.
It details the story very much as it
has already been published, giving an
account of Col. Ruiz's departure from
Havana, his meeting with the Aran
guren band and the execution of
the Spanish officer by order of the in
surgent commander. Consul General
Lee also relates his effort to save the
condemned man by sending a personal

Military Academy Bill Passed liy

Essential Amendment.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.— The house
passed the military academy bill to
day with only one important amend
ment. The debate on the measure was
desultory and touched a variety of po
litical topics. As passed, the bill car
ried $453,540, $26,032 less than the
amount carried by the current law.
The bill to limit the period for the
refunding of the certificates of depos
its of 1879 to Dec. 31, 1899, was passed.
Tomorrow the house will take up the

note to Aranguren and expresses re
gret that it did not reach him in time.
On Dec. 30 Gen. Dee wrote as follows:
Referring to my previous dispatch, I de
sire to say further that tho note to Aran
guren was not delivered; because when my
representative reached his camp this insur
gent chief was temporarily absent there
from, but the next ranking officer then in
command gave to Mr. Tosca the following
statement:
Details of the death of Lieut. Col. Joa
quin Ruiz:
"This gentleman came to these fields
dressed In tho uniform of a Spanish mili
tary officer and before the Cuban forces
made to ' Col. Nestor Aranguren proposi
tions of autonomy for Cuba.
"Col. Aranguren. respecting the orders of
our army, made Ruiz prisoner and he was
executed later, after a court martial had
been held, and in the name of the law of
organization of our army. And that It may
be known. I furnish this Information to
Ernesto Tosca, who came commissioned by
the American consul at Havana.
"MAJ. ALFREDO LIMA."
It now appears that Col. Ruiz visited the
Insurgent camp In his private or unofficial
capacity and that with the exception of one
or two of the authorities of the palace, and
possibly a few others, no ono knew of his
errand or departure. It would seem, there
fore, that he went Into the Insurgent camp
In an unofficial or private character. and not
under a flag of truce, or other official pro
tection in war, a procedure always hazard
ous to the life of any one who attempts It.
Both these dispatches are addressed
to Assistant Secretary Day and not to
Secretary Sherman.
Aldrleh-Plowman contested election
case.
During the debate on the appropria
tion bill the house, as usual, drifted
into a political discussion.
Mr. Olmstead said the continued agi
tation of the silver question was the
only thing that retarded the full meas
ure of prosperity that would naturally
flow from the Dingley law. The threat
contained in the Teller resolution had
driven $40,000,000 to investment in for
eign securities.
"Do we want a cowardy money that
runs away," asked Mr. Bland (Dem.,
Mo.).
"Money is always timid," replied Mr.
Olmstead. "It goes to places where It
is safest and the security Is best."
"You don't hear of silver running
away," reiterated Mr. Bland.
"No," interposed Mr. Landis (Rep.,
Ind.), "you don't hear of silver run
ning away from Mexico."
"Mexico Is prosperous," shouted a
voice from the Democratic side.
Mr. Landis — You don't hear of sliver
running away from China.
Mr. Ogden (Dem., La.) — Are you a
Chinaman or an American?
Mr. Meyers (Dem., Ind.) and Mr. De
Armond (Dem., Mo.) both denounced
the action of the house on the Teller
bond resolution.
The whole purpose of the Republican
party In the defeat of that resolution.
Mr. De Armond declared, was to com
mit the country irretrievably to the
gold standard. It had at last thrown
off all subterfuge and shame, and now
had the shameless effrontery to bold
ly proclaim the robbery which it al
ways secretly connived at, but never
before had the hardihood to avow.
With only one unimportant amend
ment the committee rose and the bill
was passed.
The senate amendments to the legis
lative, executive and judicial appropri
ation bill were disarmed to, and the
bill was sent to conference.
At 3:45 p. m. the house adjourned.
HOUSE POLICY UNCHANGED
No Present Disposition to Act on
the Hawaii Hatter.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 7. -There is no pres
ent purpose In the house to consider the Ha
waiian question, and tho house leaders »ay
there has been no change whatever in the dis
position to allow the senate to act on the
subject beforo making any move in the house.
Speaker Ro.tl would make no public com
ment on published reports that he had chang
ed his views on Hawaii, and wa3 now in fa
vor of prompt action on a Joint resolution an
nexing Hawaii.
Th« report caused much romment among
members and to those who made inquiries of
the speaker, he replied with much emphasis
that the report was un-warranttd and false.'
The Hawaiian subcommittee, which has
charge of all joint resolutions affecting Ha
waii, has not held a meeting.
