Kee, who handsomely acquitted
himself Of q qualified rejection of
their nomination by declining to
swallow their platform, is also
worthy of all admiration. He looks
upon the nomination Of the Kear-
neyites as merely an endorsement
Of bis judicial career. The men
who have had the manliness to
show that office is not the sole end
and aim of their lives will yet live
to congratulate themselves. A
Kearneyite nomination Is the fore.
runner Of the most crushing defeat
recorded In the political annals OF
California.

white dove that has followed Con.
ductor Smiths freight train, on the
Old Colony Railroad, daily from
Walpole to Medfieid, where 1t has
alighted on a particular barn and
reappeared next day at the same
place in Walpole. During a part
of the way the dove flies just back
Of the cab under the pillar of SIN oke
and within few feet Of the engi.
neer, and part Of the way by the
side of the engineers window and
within two feet of his hand as he
stretches It toward her. Occasion
ally she falls back to the rear of
the train, as though surveying it.,
but only to resume her wonted
place a moment later. When the
train runs under a bridge the dove
mounts gracefully above it and
tumbles Immediately to its place

that the number of people in Eu-
rope who are upward of 90 years
old is 102,63l. of whom 60,3OS are
women. OF those who are over 100
years of age there are 24l women

women and 524 men In Hungary.
There are in Austria 1,5OS, 1853

have no peaches in them. From

lion of baskets of peaches. This
season not one-twentieth of that
amount will be shipped. From the

be picked during the coming seas.
