near drowning. The water rose 80 rapid

they budding together on little knoll,

would surely have been drowned. MI.

THREE boys, two of widow Nicholai.
sens and one Of William Olsen's, were up
on the bank of the river fishing on Wednes-
day night, about opposite of Cranes
place. The river rose SO rapidly that
before they realized it, they were com.
pleteiy surrounded by the food. Being
near a tree, the boys climbed it and hal
looed for help, and it was fully two hours
before their cries we're responded to.
Finally, Mr.. F. I. Cranes hired man
heard them and procured boat and
came to their rescue. This was fully 8
o'clock. They might have had sorry
time had their cries not been heard, as
the tree which supported them was young
and weakly and might not have held
them had they been obliged to stay there
all night.

throughout the Southern portion of orr
State have recently come out with a sue.
gestion of the name of Hon. ]. O. Far.
mer of Fillmore county, for Judge Of the
Tenth Judicial Circuit, to succeed Judge
Page, and the suggestion is one of the
happy ideas which seems to be inspired.
Of all the men in this district we venture
to assert that j. Q. Farmer Is best fitted
by his abilities, his training, his position
and his record for the honor Of represent
ing this district gu the judicial bench.
and the Republicans will do themselves
honor by nominating him in their CON
ventfon in July, which would be a suffi-
cient guarantee of his election, We do
not know that he would accept the posi-.
ton if it were rendered him, as we have
not conferred with him in the least upon
the subject, but in the array of names
! mentioned in connection with the Office.
his name is most conspicuous, not only as
representing an idea, but as representing
the idea which is uppermost in the minds
of all who know him.-Spring Vallea

For DISTINCT JUDGE.-Hon. James
IO'Brien, of Ca!edonla, is the first, last
and only choice of the Herald rs a can
didate for the circuit judgeship Of this

A Card to tho Public.

The number Of grand prizes awarded
at the Paris Exposition Of 1873 was COM
paratively small. While, for instance,
about 600 prizes were awarded to Ameri.
can exhibitors, only nine of them were
grand prizes. One of these grand prizes
was received by US. Although about
eighty sewing machine companies, for.
eign and domestic, competed for the hon.
ors of the exposition, the single grand
prize mentioned above was the only one
awarded for sewing machines, We will
pay one thousand dollars to any one who
will show that the above statements are
not in strict accordance with the facts.
We make this announcement because we
have been informed that some few I'm.
principled persons who are dealing in
other sewing machines, have, by misrep-
presenting the facts, attempted to belittle
the magnitude of our triumph. The ma
chimes on account Of whose perfection
this prize was awarded are sold by

and the water kept up pretty we'll for two

the first night Of the freshe, for the safety

the embankment adjoining the west abut-

have proved a serious matter. We are
happy to say, however, not much OF an
opening was made after all, and conse-
quently little damage was done. Tue

near Austin suffered but little, except the
one at Lansing, to what extent is recorded
