In direct opposition to tho wUlio of former Gov, John Llnd, the latter was unanimously nom inated for govor nor at tho Demo cratic state con vention held In Minneapolis Mr. Llnd had ropoated ly refused to even consider entering tho race for governor, despite tho earnest entreaties of his friendj in nil parts of tho Gopher state. Ho Is now prominent In Minneapolis, where he makes his home, and at present is on i trip to tho northwest. While the Democrats were in convention a tele gram was rocelvod from Mr, Llnd lu which ho flatly refused to have his name brought before tho convention, The convention Itself was ono of the raost excltlug In the history of Democracy In Minnesota, A peculiar tato of affairs prevailed, All the del egates were of one mind in consider ing Llnd aa tho strongest nominee tho party could put forward, but while sne-holf of tho delegates insisted upon nominating him despito his wishes, the other halt were equally insistent that the ex-governor's telegram be heeded. For three hours pandemo nium reigned, no other name being considered. At last the faction bent on nominating Mr. Llnd gained control of the convention and his namo was placed at the head of the ticket. La ter the nomination was made unani mous. Mr. Llnd wired from Seattle and then from Alaska that ha would not be a candidate. When informed of the action of the convention Mr, Llnd said: "I have re peatedly stated that I could not and would not accept the nomination," Should be adhere to this resolution it will bo necessary to again call the Democratic convention luto an ex traordinary session in order to name another candidate. Among his other protests Mr. Llnd wrote to Frank A. Day, chairman of the Democratlo state central commit ter, as follows: "Nearly a year ago 1 Informed you I bad decided irrevoca bly arver again to take part la poll tics aa a candidate for office. I would regard It as downright folly for the convention to nominate a man for the bead of the ticket who has been de clared Ineligible by the legislature. Under the circumstances you will ap preciate the Impossibility of my ac cepting the nomination." Mr, Llnd was the first Democrat to be elected governor of Minnesota and be U Immensely popular throughout the state. A Bed Advertisement, Druggist (to bis stout wife) Doa't come la just this minute.

At that tlmo he wns sont abroad to study agricultural work in other nations, and upon his return he was mado di rector of five oxporlmontal farms about to bo organized. Since then, under bis guidance, tho work Una pro gressed by leaps nnd bounds, Tho po tential yield of every aero of Cana dian farm land has been Increased: fruit has ben successfully raised on tho north plains, and besides this, thero has been established a great educational extension service for the training of the young Canadian far mer. Tho keystone of this experimental farm system in Canada is the so called central farm, near Ottawa. The first branch farm waa established be tween Brunswick and Nova Scotia, and this waa followed by a farm at Drandon, for Manitoba. Then came a branch for the northwest territories, which was placed at Indian Head, and others havo been established since. These experimental farms have been of great value to Canada, enabling her to take an Inventory of her agricul tural resources and to know the possi bilities of her land. Vain Attempt to Show Off. A youthful masculine, scarce three years old. was listening to a story by bis mother, but despite his dovotlon to her stories, kept making unac countable excursions to a clear space on the park lawn and solemnly airing his sole physical accomplishment of a neat somersault. The mother won dered, but asked no questions. Pres ently, however, the mystery waa ex plained. Another boy, seated near the open space with bis parents, rose and walked away. Tho little acrobat sighed sadly, "I guess he never evea saw me," be remarked. Explanation Wanted. "Ob, you are Mrs. DllzzorT" asked the vivacious and beautiful woman, on being Introduced to her.

Miss Harriot Hcrllcn was cccontrlc, nnd her eccentricity led her to ex tremes when, nt hor denth, sho willed n tlmo-worn nnd hldooua bureau to her favorlto nephew and nothing oIbo. Marvin Chnpman debatod long on whether to favor tho rollc of nn art loss manufacturer with resting room, or relognto It to n second-hand em porium. In tho end lovo nnd a cer tain respect for tho old lady won; the bureau was Installed In tho otherwise up-to-dato npartmonta of tho young mnn. Miss Harriet Horllen hnd been n highly esteemed woman, nggroaBlva In word and nrtloti. Sho had a shrewd mind, calculating, koen. Chnpman, who hnd not seen his aunt for n numbor of years, remem bered hor ns n sharp-eyed old lady, Bllvor-hnlrcd and always garbed In Illicit. The bureau nmuscd tho friends of tho young iirtlHt, nnd laughing con gratulations wore given Chnpman on having secured so handsome nn an tique. He volunteered no explana tions. Tho bureau boenmo a perma nent flxturo lu his rooms, Chpnmnn wns an artist of much talent, but, ns yet, llttlo success. Ho managed, by rigid economy, to llvo within hla nllto small Income, and keep up appenrnncoa. Meanwhile, tho spotlight of publicity was gradually co in lug closer. Tho youth hnd always bollovod that his mint wns a woman of vast woalth nnd that ho wan to Inhorlt all of her fortuno. Believing this, ho hnd mado no effort to husbnnd his own llttlo money. Now ho rcutlzcd his mistake this loaning on possibilities for bin dream was farthor away from htm than ovor nud ho had Im oglnod It most tangible, nud of bound-tocomo-truo construction. Hut, nfter all, cvun If tho llttlo' country studio, fur nwny rrom tho stress nnd clnmor of tho town, woro ollmlnntvd, nud tho constant produc tion of "pot bollors" wns nlwnys to bo n necessity, the hontt of tho droam wns still loft to htm. Tho heart of tho dream, tho radiant center around which all these thoughts and visions of tho future rovolvod, wna Annotto Loynl Tho young nrttst hnd known tho girl for years. They had boon fellow students In Paris, and hor dark eyes, studded beneath poict brows, had In tho End Love and a Certain Re spect for the Old Lady Won, mndo tliolr strong nppenl to him long boforo he hod beromo acquainted with her. AlKtvo and beyond hor perfect figure hor rnrd poise; above nnd be yond nil theso, the magnetism of her personality had claimed him, and ho know In his heart that there nover could bo any other. The youth hod boon n keen boy, fresh from tho country In thoso days, and what tho girl could have found In him was a mystery. To be sure, the nqulllno nose, tho firm, frank eyes nnd tho fighting Jaw told of victorias to come; but, ns a general rule, young girls aro not nblo to Judge of such things. Doth Chnpman and tho girl were now back In Now York, nnd the friend ship had long sluco ripened to an en gagement and a full understanding. Annetto's career as an artist was in tho same state as that of hor swoot heart. . "I think it la rather quaint," com pllroeuted Miss Leys, upon her first glimpse of tho monstrosity. Never theless, her enthusiasm broko to no lino frenzy, Pollto fabrications came to the girl with difficulty. Hor pop feet lips and her ratbor serious pro fllo woro consistently abovo trivial word vagaries. Boveral months after tho installa tion of the heirloom Chapman re ceived a caller. He Was Too Enthusiastic Hank Dobbs was noted as an "hon est" horso trader. He would not lie about a horse. Ho would merely sup press the truth. Incidentally ho al ways beat the customer who dealt with him. Tho way bo could slur over the defects and buzz about the virtues of an animal amounted to genius. Once Hank was trying to sell a neighbor a horse that had an eye which was nearly sightless, The neigh bor know Hank would not Ho outright to him, so ho questioned tho horse trader as to the various points of tho bruto. "How about his eyesight! Can ho see out of both eyes?" "Suro," said Hank, "he's got good eyes.' Horo bo leaned forward, bis eyes fairly scintillating with sup pressed honesty. "Ono eye Is partic ularly good!" Hank's enthusiasm for tbo truth had carried him too far, Tho deal was off. Not for Preference. The "cub" reporter had gone with the dramatic crltlo to see hla first re hearsal, and after gazing at Miss "My nnmu Is Cummlnga," Intro duced tho elderly person, hnvlng calmly helped himself to n chair. He removed nn ancient tlto and mopped tho shining domo of his head with a gaudy handkerchief, "You havo novor mot mo, sir, but your Into mint n most estimable woman Insisted thnt I call on you when In tho city.

Tho koon eyes of tho cnllor ronmod about tho room, resting at last upon a llttlo door lending to n chnmbcr Just visible from whero ho sat wni the freak gift that had descended tc Chapman, Tho artist noted tho curious glance of tho visitor.

"I soo wo can't do busi ness," ho cnllod back to tho surprised Chapman. 'Good-by." Tho painter stared nfter his eccen tric visitor. "Crazy," ho ejaculated.

The smart llttlo cont, which was of medium length, was seinl-tlght, and It had an Immonsu sailor oollur whloh was thickly cov ered with white soutaoho braiding. Thero were deep gantlet cuffs turned buck on tho three-quarter length sleeves, nnd these on ft wore also covered with braiding. In front tho cont was hold together by loops of white silk soutnohu ami flat buttons of mother-of-pearl set In rims of silver. With this dainty llttlo costume u shirt waist of the finest batlsto was warn. It was entirely hand mndo and the tuoks down tho fronts woro rathor wide and woro humstltahod. Attached to the front of tho waist, at the left side, and fulling over tho coat, was an immense pleated frill of batiste Inset with valonolonnos.
