Proceedings In Detail.

AT high IL the convention was called to
order by Mr.. Stanford Newell, chairman of
the county committee. Following this the
call was read, and it was stated that the Office
of court commissioner was put in the call
through mistake. The court commissioner
was elected two years ago for three years,
and therefore no nomination would
he made for that Office. Mr.. Newell then re-
ferred to Ohio, said he couldn't help doing
it. Enthusiasm. He then named the
Republican party as the one of progress,
which gave us good times, and even claimed

-Supt. Lind and Tory Olsen visited
Loreno last Saturday, the former to

H. A. Subilia returned from New
York last week. He informs us that
the times in the eastern states are even
duller than here and that the poorer
classes in the large cities are suffering
for the want of proper clothing and
edibles, there being no work from
which they could earn something.

AlbiN Csrrespendence.

Editor Repiew:
We think it is Schuyler Colfax who,
in speaking of the present financial
crisis, says: Eve have turned the
corner. From the upward tendency
of real estate in our town, one is not
only induced to think that we have
turned the coner towards prosperity,
but that we are already a long distance
on the road thitherward. D.;
We learn that Mr.. "A. e. Somerville
has sold 80 acres Of his land for sixteen
hundred dollars.
If the mere prospect of railroad
through our town renders land so very
valuable, what fabulous prices will our
lands attain when the iron horse act,l-
ally snorts over our beautiful prairie.
The idea of railroad through the town
of Albin is no new idea to us. In fact
we have long maintained that such
road would be built. Hence we regard
it now, as ever in the past, as merely a
matter Of time. When that time comes
we shall invite our friends to visit our
town and settle in our midst. just
think Of a beautiful and thriving vii
lage in the bosom of our own town,
probably located just at the head of
Lake Hanska, and bearing the name of
that beautiful lake, viz: 'sHanska.' y
Thus located about equi-distant from
st. James and Loreno, it would, at
once, become common center for
sportsmen and pleasure seekers at
large. There are few lakes Of equal
magnitude and beauty in southern
Minnesota. A grand place for fish.
ing and hunting upon its banks, and
sailing and rowing upon it's bosom.
Those who live few decades will, in
all probability, take pleasure trips
from the village of ''Hanska" to the
''Old Stockad'' in a small steamer.
Will mot that be ahigh day for this grass
.hoppered out-of-the-way.place when
your humble correspondent can sit in
his room and hear the engines whistle
and the school-bell' s merry chime from
our prairie village. Mr.. Editor, some
Of your readers may smile, but what
Of that. The thing is thousand
times more probable than was the 10.
cation and building Of Loreno ten
years since. Now folks don't laugh
and spoil our fun for we believe this
thing is going to transpire.
It appears that many Of Jour famers
have lost stock by black.beg. This
disease is generally, if not always, ia

it he would confer great favor upon

it's cure, but have much faith in the
following as a preventive:

Elsewhere we notice Mr.. j. b. Rus

his speedy departure from our midst.
He has associated himself with Mr.. j.
Childs, of Amherst, Portage county,
Wis, and will hereafter devote his
time to the manufacture and sale OF
the Simplicity bee.hives, section box
es. comb foundations and apiarian sup
plies generally, and the culture of bees.
|. The Simplicity hive was introduced
by parties in Ohio about two years ago
since which time it has become very
popular and sells on sight wherever ex.
hibited. 1t is the simplest hive
known, giving the very best Of salts.
faction wherever used, on account Of
the ease with which bees can be hand
led in them and the greater amount Of
honey which can be raised with it. The
surplus honey in the hive is all raised
in one pound boxes. Each hive con.
tanning Sc boxes, capable of holding
one pound in each. The frames and
boxes can be removed, and others
inserted at will at any time without
any great disturbance of the bees,
which cannot be done with any other
hive on the Market. The entrance
through which the bees pass in and
out can be made larger or smaller at
will by which anyone can make the
entrance to suit the particular times
and seasons, and which every bee
keeper will readily understand is a
great advantage. The frames are
made with metal corners, light strong
and durable and will last for years.
The whole hive is made by machinery
for the purpose and at price which
easily places it within the reach of
all. tits without doubt, as pronounced
by all who have examined it, the
cheapest and best hive known. Mr..
Russell has one of those hives at M.
Mullen s store and invites the bee.keep.
ers of this vicinity to an inspection of
the same.

Every public man that has any pa

ty, stick to him like Poorman's plas-
ter. This must indeed be gratifying
to the Major. Ever since the day when
his defeat last fall became known his
large army of friends have wed with
one another to prove their friendship
for him. Just before his departure
from Washington parting reception
was given him, and the word regret
which was placed in a large boquet,
told the whole story. u pom his arrival
at Shakopee large number Of people,
irrespective Of party Affiliations, turned
out to welcome him home, an account
of which we have already given. But
the browning event of all occurred last
Monday evening, when large number
of the Majors friends surrounded his
house, made him a prisoner, and only
released him upon the express condi-
ton that he would accept as a token Of
friendship a beautiful gold watch and
chain, valued at $4,000, which they
had brought along. The Major saw
that they were q set Of determined Eel

as discretion was the better part Of va

Millheim Journal. [volume] (Millheim, Pa.) 1876-1984, 1879-10-09

Many years ago, at Carne farm house,
where relatives of mine were then living,
the household cat was observed to enter
bedroom in course OF being spring cleaned.
The locking glass being on the floor, the
cat, on entering, was confronted with its
own reflection, and naturally concluded
that he saw before him real intruder on
his domain. Hostile demonstrations were
the result, followed by rush to the mirror
and then, meeting an obstacle to his ven
geance, a fruitiess cut round to the rear.
This man9uvre was more than once re-
peated with, of course, eIual lack of sue
cess. Finally, the cat was seen to deliber-
ately walk up to the looking glass, keeping
its eyes on the image, and then, when near
enough to the edge, to feel carefully with
one paw behind, for the supposed intruder,
while with its head twisted round to the
front it assured itself of the persistence of
the reflection. The result of this expert
ment fully satisfied the cat that he mad
been the victim of delusoin, and never
after would he ccndescend to notice mere
reflections, though the trap was more than
once laid for him.

The Harvest in Russia.

A field stretching away for miles and
miles without hedge, ditch or boundary
stone to relieve the sight offered by what
seems to be a very ocean of waving corn
tinged with red by millions of poppies. A
Jew is surveying this glorious crop, and as
he does SO he turns to sniff the breeze
which is blowing gently from the Black
Sea, about thirty versts off; then he lets
his eye wander complacently down a steep
road up which long procession of empty
carts is toiling The Jew is q merchant
from Odessa, who bought the crops before
him as far back as three years ago from a
nobleman in difficulties, and he is pleased
by the sight of those carts, because he
knows now that he will be able to get his
wheat comfortably to Odessa before the
September rains set in. The difficulty in
Southern Russia is not to rear wheat, but
to get it shipped; so when the aged Ben
judas was haggling with Prince Nokine,
the straitened nobleman aforementioned,
about the purchase of his harvests for three
years, he took care to mention that it would
require more than a hundred carts to carry
the wheat to Odessa, and that after that
there might be some trouble about getting
could be shipped. In fact, he described
the purchase of the corn as quite a galL-
bling speculation; and so it often is. But
not to dealers like Benjudas. He never
buys an acre of corn without being quite
sure about his carts, his barn, his ship, and
his reapers; for behold! even as he stands
surveying that noble field at five in the
morning, on promising August day, a
hundred or 50 of Prince Nokine's tenants
come slouching out of their cottages with
scythes and sickles, while more distant
group, coming from the BARNES castle, ap-
pear pushing before them a grand steam
moving machine Prince Nokine, like all
Russian landholders, invests largely in
agricultural machinery, as child would in
toys if he had the money; and it was part
of Bcnjudas's contract that he should have
the Princes machine at his disposal. Not
one of the Russian peasants can work them,
but Beniudas has brought with him q
couple of sharp German ship-stokers, who
know how to do everything more or less,
and who soon light the fire under the engine
and set the mower snorting, moving, and
