TIE re nomination of THAD. G.
Pound by reclamation for Member of
Congress for the Eighth District by
Republican Convention at Stevens
Point on Sept. 4th, is proof sufficient
that he is held in high esteem by his
constituents and party associates.
Governor Pound has worked with un-
RENTING zeal for the interests of his
District and he should be reelected by
an increased majority. The Milwau-
kee Wisconsin says Of him and his OPP
ponent:
Mr. Pound in his address to the
convention, placed himself sqnarely
upon the platform of the Republican
State Central Committee. so that ON
the whole, the Republicans of the
Eighth District have entered the cam
paign in manner that deserves and
promises success. Mr.. Pound is a ca
pable and faithful legislator, man of
positive convictions. and with courage
to adhere to and defend them. He is
much the superior in these respects of
his competitor, Barrows, and If the
people OF the Eighth District consult
their interests they will see to it that
he IS re elected

THE PUot-straight Democratic
thinks the action ofthe Marathon del
egation in withdrawing from the
Grand Rapids convention was emil
ne#tly fit and proper. 1t finds the
real question now to be decided to be:
"Whether the defeat of Mr.. Pound is
paramount to the identity and integrl-
ty of the Democratic party? The
Pilot gets but a portion Of the CUES
ton. 1t is whether the defeat Of Mr..
PoUED, who has made tho only repre-
sentatite who has accomplished any
thing for the Eighth district since its
formation, is paraw cunt to the identi
ty and integrity of the Democratic
party, and the election of man who
is committed to principles utterly an
tagonistic to honest Democracy. 1t
would seem that to be alive, with IN
tegrity untarnished. would be prefera-
bic to be dead and disgraced. How
ever, Pound will be elected anyway.
There are more than a thousand DEM
ocratic votes to be given to him in
that district VauI aca Republican.

REPTILES AND INSECTS IN AUSTRALIA.

prolilic-mosquitoes and flies being particu-

sometimes hardly recognizable, so complete

eyes, noses and mouths. When eating, it
requires dexterous maneuvering to get a
piece of meat into ones mouth without its
complement offlies. Spiders are very com
mon, as also are ants, the tarantula being
the most formidable of the former, and the
bulldog-ant the worst species OF the latter.
These ants are an inch or more in hight and
about two inches long. They all fight
fercely, and their sting is not at all to be
desired. They catch hold of your skin with
their nippers, bend the body under like a
scorpion and put the sting gently in, leay-

VIENNA COFFEE.

This coffee is a wonder to all who drink,
it45 The process OF making it is very simple.
The best Mocha is purchased, burned and
ground. When finely ground it is put into
tin cans with tight fitting covers. The cof-
fee-pot in which the coffee is made consists
of an ~opcn-mouthed cylinder, with sides an
inch thick. A plunger fits this cylinder ex-
actly. 1t has a perforated bottoms. over
which is placed a piece of canton Or scotton
flannel, held i'll place by all iron ring. The
plunger having been thrust to the bottom
of the cylinder, with the. flannel covering
the holes in the bottom of ii, the ground
coffee is put in, and boiling hot water is
poured on until the cylinder lis full. By
means of a screw and arms at the top OF the
cylinder, the plunger is gradually drawn to
the top, all the water in it having, by this
means, been forced through the coffee.
About ten minutes is consumed in the. op-
Grafton, and when the plunger reaches the
mouth of the cylinder with all the coffee
grounds on the top OF it, the coffee is made
and ready for USE. 1t will be seen that the
process of making Vienna coffee is very
simple. No eggs. are used the coffee is
simply stepped in hot water for Ter minutes;
1t is not boiled; it is not put upon the stove
or range in the process of making, and it is
not strained after having been made, since
the plunger, in moving from the bottom to
the, top Of the cylinder, brings all the parti-
cles of coffee with it. The coffee is made
strong, but most people prefer it in that
way. After the coffee is made as described,
it is poured into large, earthen pitchers,
which are placed upon a range. In this
way it is kept hot, and from these pitchers
1t is poured into little mugs.
