SOME FACTS CONCERNING THE REPUB
LIcAS CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF.-The
fact that Mr.. Lamb has proven himself
good collector, IL one of the best com.
mendations for the Office of Sheriff. The
very reasons some inconsiderate persons
urge against him.. are really arguments
in his favor. But even In this business
it 10 greatly to his credit, that, while
working faithfully for his employers, he
has never foreclosed mortgage in Blue
Earth county, or pressed any one to their
injury. In the very few cases where suit
has been brought, II was done by the i'm
perative order Of his employers. And
his employers have often censured him
for his leniency. He has resided In this
county for twelve years Is an owner of
good real estate, and therefore q tax.
payer he possesses the confidence OF all
who ever employed him, and the respect
Of oil who know him. He Is recognized
as an energetic business man, ever alive
to the true interests Of the county. He
Is staunch Republican, and his private
character Il without stain or reproach.
He Is temperate, industrious and honor
able. He would make such Sheriff M
this county might justly be proud Of.

The Board having republican majority or seven.
it was known. when Mayor Howell taken i'll.
that the acting Mayor would have no difficulty III
securing the confirmation OF his nominations, pro-
viding his associates the Board aci ed in unison
with him. Several OF the republican members, how
ever signihcd their intention not to take advan-
tage OF their opportunity. and made written
agreements to that effect II s thought by
the democrats and friends of Mayor Howell that to-
days session was called for no other purpose than
throw the vacant Offices into the hands of the
publicans and there a rumor to the effect that
the courts would be applied to for an injunction
straining the Board from acting upon the nomina-
tons. In the afternoon the following communica-

As means of securing the right young
lady it is stated that on her right leg croas has
tattooed indelibly the fair skin This strange
fact appears to suggest that ladies of the English
aristocracy have found new amusement for their
leisure hours in tattooing devices on their limbs.
The legal firm do not hint that the cause of the dis
appearance OF the young lady may have been due TO
n deranged mind or any other such natural cause
but the facts, with the manner OF their disclosure.
lead to the presumption that elopement has been
planned and executed and that interesting develop

GOOD MANNERS.

The essence Of good manners is
kind thoughtfulness Of others.
The man who goes to his room in
q hotel, stamping and talking
through the corridors, slamming
his door and finging his boots
down heavily upon the floor, is
merely brutalIy selfish. He is
not aware that lie owes duties to
other people who will be affected
by his conduct. He does not think
that he rudely awakens some one
to whom sleep is indispensable,
and whom be has no right to dis
turb. Haydon's picture Of the
man in the chop-house, waiting
for the Times, which his neighbor
has held for an hour, and is evil
IDENTIFY bent upon holding it until
he has read all the advertisements,
is an illustration of this common
selfshness. The talk and conduct
in the cars arc generally signs Of
vanity or a morbid self-conscious-
ness. A well bred man keeps his
toothaches and headaches to him.
self, and does not assume that
strangers arc interested in his di-
gestion. A we'll bred woman
keeps her children quiet, and does
not assume that all her fellow-tra7-
elers must share her fondness for
| them. If Mrs. P, with her vivid
sense Of Mr.. P's. peculiarities and
of her fine house and equipage,
could only once know how ST.
prcmely unimportant any indl7l-
dual is, how we'll the world Jared
before Mr.. P. arrived, and how
unshockcd the universe will be by
his departure, she would be a
modest and wcil-mannered wo-
man. That knowledge, indeed,
would be a general corrective OF
manners. A certain kind Of per-
sonal conceit often accompanies
undeniable superiority. There are
men like Lord Chatham, who like
to have their going and coming
regarded as events, to move with
pompous hustle, and to be con-
stantly recognized as great men.
But it they could only know it,
that very taste is constantly &C
counted to them for weakness,
and their inhuerce is just so tar
Iessened.
