HThe First of the white Bear Concerts.

THE First of the White Bear Concerts.
The first of the series of Thursday evening
concerts at White Bear lake, was given by
the Great Western band last evening. The
almost insessant storms of the last few days
isterfered with the preparations, but were
withheld long enough for the affair to come
off with very tolerable success.
The afternoon and evening trains took out
moderate number of pleasure seekers, who
made up in jollity and enthusiasm
what they lacked in numbers. and
who thoroughly enjoyed themselves,
sailing and rowing upon the lake, or scat
tered in groups around the Lake Shore Sta
tion-the point which had been selected for
these affairs, from its central and conyen
lent location.
The band embarked in the yacht "Santa
Maria" made the usual cruise about the
lake, attended by feet of smaller boats,
and sailed up to the Lake Shore station,
playing in fine style, just as the evening
train from st. Paul arrived.
DISSEMINATING, the musicians were accom-
modsted upon novel sort of band stand,
improvised for the occasion, out of the hull
of the old "Eaglet," which venerabls craft,

ployed for this purpose while its timbers
hold together.
By another week, the large plvilion will
be finished, walks and rustic seats pro-
vided, and the grounds put in thorough
order. Considering the unsvoidahly back
ward state of the preparations, the affair
was a decided success, and the visitors, re-
turned to town in high good humor.
The only mishap of the evening was the
detention caused by some accident to a
switch in the railroad yard whereby the
train was delayed, and passengers obliged
to walk up from the old depot on lower
Third street.

reported adversely the Senate bill directing
the court of claims to investigate the claims
of BENZ. F. White and the La Abra mining
company. Indefinitely postponed.
Senator Herman, from the committee on
finance, reported favorably the House bill

The report of the conference committee
on the river and harbor appropriation bill
was presented and adopted.
Senator Harris moved to increase from

aid local quarantine stations and local and
State boards of health, to be used in case of
epidemic.
Senator Bailey supported the amendment.
Senator Beck was not very well satisfied
with the board of health, but had voted fol

with it. Four hundred and seventy-fve
Thousand dollars had been ex.
pended, and he did not think more
than 100000 had gone to relieve the people
from disease.
Senator Allison criticized the board for its
erection of quarantine buildings.
Senator Harris, chairman of the commit
tee on epidemic diseases, said the act of 1878
gave the board express power to put up
buildings wherever necessary to prevent the
importation of disease.
Senator Eaton declared he had not much
confidence in, or respect for, the national
board of health.
Senator Allison objected to the large cleri-
cal force employed by the board, and alleged
they had violated the spirit of the law
Senator Harris defended the action of the
board. Senators Herman and Morgan spoke
against the national board, saying they had
always been opposed to it's establishment

THE CIsOINNArT CONTENTION.

week from next Tuesday the national
convention of the Democratic party will
meet at Cincinnati. There will be gathered
together on that occasion probably the
largest array of distinguished statesmen ever
assembled in this country-men who have
made themselves renowned in every walk
of life-soldiers, diplomats, men of letters,
politicians and business men. The conven-
ton will consist of 1888 delegates, the
territories and the District of Columbia be-
ing excluded from representation for the
very good reason that as they can cast no
electoral vote they have no right to dictate
the nomination as, III certain con-
tingencies, they might have the power to do.
Nearly all the States thus far heard from
have pronounced in favor of the retention OF
the two-third5 rule in vogue in Democratic
conventions since 1874, and it will therefore
require 1872 votes to nominate any candidate.
Probably never before in the history OF
the country have there been 30 many aspir-
ants for the honor of nomination. No less
than twenty-five eminent men are either
themselves seeking the nomination, or have
friends who are actively canvassing the
country in their behalf. Classified by States
they may be named as follows:
ssNew York-Samuel j. Tilden, Horatio Sey-
mour, Clarkson N. Potter.
New Jersey-George B. Mcclellan, Joel Par
ker.
Pennsylvania-Winfeld s, Hancock, Samuel
j. Randall.
Delaware-Thomas T. Bayard.
Ohio-Allen G. Thurman, Henry B. Payne,
w. 8. Groesbeck, r. M. Bishop, George a..
PendIeton, Thomas Ewing 81. J. Jewett
Oonnecticut-James e. English.
Indisna-Thomas A. Hendricks, W. a..
English.
IIlinois-David Davis, William r. Morrison.
John M. Palmer.
California Stephen j. Field.
There should be no difficulty in selecting
man from among these who combines all
the requisites of chief magistrate and at
the same time is popular enough to carry
the country over the Republican nominee.
They are all able men who would adorn the
executive chair. None, however, possess
the present strength among the delegates
elected to warrant any person in predicting
who will be successful. But four States
have instructed their delegates for
Thurman, Indiana for Hendricks, Delaware
for Bayard, and Virginia for Field. The
remainder of the delegates, while
they may have their personal
preferences, go to Cincinnati uninstructed
save to confer together and act as seems
best to them for the good of the party. It
is not likely that all the names mentioned
will be presented to the convention, except
the sessions are unduly prolonged There is
every reason to hope and expect that the del
egates will act wisely, not only in the selec-
ton of a candidate, but in drawing up plat
form of principles that will commend itself
to the good sense and patriotism of the
thinking men of the republic. If this is
done, the Democratic party may expect vic
tory, but not without hard work, for the Re-
publican party is yet strong, active and
alert, and fully determined to retain its hold
upon the Offices of the country at any cost.

IT is said that Gladstone will endeavor to
have parliament Impose portion of the
cost of the Afghan war on the imperial rev.
enues, evidently on the theory that they who
dance must pay the fiddler. If he makes
the proposition in earnest, however, and ii
becomes cabinet question, it is safe to say
that the reign of the liberal ministry will be
short-lived, for the British people have 8

PARLIAMENT.
LONDON, June 10.-In the house of com.
mons Sir Charles Dixie declared the state.
ment impended that the English feet would
shortly proceed to Besika bay. Sir Wilfred
Lawson, liberal, announced that he would
move the house for the recall of Sir Bartle
Freer. Premier Gladstone said the estimated
surplus of Sir Stafford Northcote, former
chancellor of the exchequer, were already
swallowed up by 100000 for necessary
supplementary estimates. He stated that
Indian finances rendered it necessary to pro-
vide for larger surplus in view of negotia-
tions with France. He asked for authorize
ton to reduce the duties on wine to six pence
per gallon of 20 degrees alcoholic strength,
and proportionately for higher strength,
the reductions to be dependent upon obtain
ing reductions in French duties on English
goods.
THE DALMATIoN FRONTIER.
LONDON, June 1O.-The British, French,
Russian, Austrian and Italian ambassadors
resident at Berlin, and Prince Hohenlohe
of the German foreign Office, will meet there
on Wednesday next, aided by experts, who
are to compose the Dalnlation commission.
The preliminary labors will consume about
two weeks. When the technical commission
is ready to report the conference will reas-
semble and draw up the final protocol, Civ
ing an authoritative Interpretation of article
ID of the Berlin treaty. This will be the
basis of the collective meditation of the pow
ers. The conference has no control over the
attitude of Turkey and Greece, as they will
net be represented. Prince Hohenlohe will
preside.
TROUBLES IN THE ARGENTINE REPUBLIC.
LONDON, June 10.-The statements last
evening confirming the report of actual out
break in civil war in the Argentine confeder-
alton, and that President AneIlanda had Left
Buenos Ayres with an army, arc probably
exaggerated. A private telegram, dated
Buenos Ayres, June 8, says the southern
railway company has stopped the train SER
vice so as to prevent the seizure of the rolling
stock of the railway by either party, and the
national government has removed its stores
of gunpowder from the city. AS the presi-
Dental election will occur to- morrow, appre-
tensions of conflict will probably lead to
precautionary measures by President Anel-
lanada, which meagre telegraphic statements
have exaggerated into an actual outbreak of
hostilities.

Never Quite Content.

Rev. Robert Collyer holds that il is
both the curse and blessing of Ameri-
can life that we are never quite con-
tent. We all expect to go somewhere
before we die, and have a better time
when we get there than we can haveat
home. The bane of our life is discon-
tent. We say we will work SO long,
and then we viii enjoy ourselves. But
we find it just as Thackeray has ex-
pressed it. When I was a boy" be
said, 81 wanted some taffy-it was
a shilling-I hadn't one. When / was
a man / had shilling, but / didn't
want any taffy.n But we say not one
word against that splendid discomfort
that all the while makes man strike
for something better. We like this idea
that every boy born in America dreams
of being President. No man has any
right to be content to do his best, and
not to do better tomorrow than he
is doing to- day. But all that will come
by keeping close to manly and dutiful
life.
While we are going steadily along
to whatever future awaits US, the grand
est thing we can do is to feel sure that
what we are doing for a days work,
with all that we do besides, is just the
most blessed thing, 50 far as we can do,
and that we are very likely having the
best time that can ever come to our life !;
that this work, and wife and home and
children. all they are and all they mean
beat the world
The saddest thing in our life is our
discomfort when we ought to be more
contented. 1t is our birthright to get
the good of life as we go along. in these
simple and pure things that to all true
man and womanhood are like rain and
sunshine to an apple tree. But when
we do not believe this, and dream that
the best cf our life is to come when we
have made our fortune, then we sell our
birthright for mess of pottage. But
worse than Esau, the pottage gives US
the dyspepsia, and then we lose the
good Of birthright and pottage together.

An Enormous RattIesnake.

While Mrs. Charles Wells, resid:Eg at
Woodtown, Pike county, Penn, was
passing through piece of woods short
time ago. she was suddenly startled by
a rattling noise, which seemingly came
from no great distance. She stopped to
listen, and the sound was repeated.
Mrs. Wells knew it to be that of a
rattlesnake. Thinking the reptile was
in the brush alongside the road, she
started on. She had taken but q few
steps when she saw, few feet in front
of her, lying coiled in the road, with its
head erect and its tongue darting, a
monster rattlesnake. The reptile con-
tinued to rattle. and showed no inclina-
tion to get out of the way. Mrs. Wells was
accustomed to seeing snakes--the local
ity abounds with them-and she gath
cred up several large missiles, and,
approaching within few feet of the
reptile, opened warfare upon it. The
battle was of brief duration, for we'll
directed stone struck the reptile, render
ing it helpless. She then showered q
volley of stones upon her antagonist.
and soon dispatched it. The snake
measured nearly five feet, and was the
largest one of his species that has been
killed in that neighborhood for several
years. Within five miles Of the spot
where this snake was killed Is the

Gay trips along through morning dew
BRIGHT August, clad in rosy hue;
And all the hills their voices raise
And myriad soagsters sing her praise.
He. teign is one OF quiet grace;
The}soitest blushes wreathe her face;
Sw{et scents she pours out to the breeze
Shd gilds the fruit on bending trees;
Her wand she lifts DER fields of grain,
Ard gladdens earth with tides OF rain.
The sun may scorch, but still she showers
Refreshing dew on dropping flowers;
And boards of good cheer August fiingeth
And bounteous blessings August bringeth.
So pleasantly. sweet month, thou comest now !;
At thy approach the curled corn blades bow,
And, as thy periumed breezes slowly pass,
New daisies smile above the treshened grass;
Or when thy copious moisture fills the land
The parched lips of earth with joy expand.
Now gather we the pumpkin yellow,
With luscious apples, ripe aud mellow;
Safe from the rain the sheaves Of grain
The bursting granaries fully fill;
While meath the hill the cider mill
Awaits the heavy-loaded vain.
In shadeless paths the fevered, painting sun
Its Silly flight through fervid paths ascends,
TIL sullen Sirius his race hath run,
And August's dreamy, dallying influence
blends
With lustier September in the end;
Then glsddening breezes from the signing west
At eventide shall bring us longed-lor rest.
