Boys Waiting on Brides.

Boys are the last fashion for brides
maids-a statement which, now that it
looks up to me from paper, scarce seems
logical. Nevertheless, you know what
[ mean-that suffiees. / do not mean,
however, that boys are the only fashion,
but one of the fashions; for in the fall
epidemic of weddings peculiar to 1882
no fact shows forth more plainly that
there are many facts, all equally true.
1t is curious to read in the different
fashion magazines the directions as to
outfits, whether Of the young lady who,
according to Beecher, is about to "marry
a divinity and sadly thereafter consent
to live with a man." or of her equally
poetic bridesmaids, whether girls or
boys. One says dresses are made simply
and Of one or two materials; another
says they are rich and varied and dis
play all combinations Of three or four
fabrics, etc. Which is right? All I
answer; and great, therefore, is your
liberty OF. conscience.
But boys should be fancifully dressed
as pages, copied after old pictures, and
unquestionably it's the revival Of by
gone ideas that bring up really pretty
thought. Then, too, the present notable
seeking after colors has caused an attir-
ing Of bridesmaids in different dresses
Of pronounced hue, such as crimson,
blue, yellow, green, etc., the grouping
to initiate old paintings.

considerably restored. In the meantime
DR.. Higbee, his brother-in-law, was sent
for. When he arrived, which was in about
twenty minutes after the accident hap
pened, the doctor found the Judge without
pulse and in very serious condition.
He went to work at him and did not leave
him till yesterday morning when
he had got him beyond danger. At first
he had no appearance of breathing, and
had no pulse. When the doctor got the
pulse and the breathing apparatus into
working order the breathing was very Ia
bored and in short, catching breaths of
about sixty to the minute. He kept at
work at him until he brought the number
down to thirty to the minute, when the pa
tient was quite comfortable. All day yes
terday the judge continued to improve,
and it is thought that he will not be con-
fined to his room for many days.
The doctor says he is black and blue from
head to foot, and sore all over. Of course
this is painful for the Judge. The doctt r
is of the opinion that he is not injured
internally except that the lower part of
the spine may be hurt. Believing this to
be the case he will endeavor to keep the
Judge in bed as long as he can in order to
rest the spine as much as possible, and
thus prevent future trouble. Up to last
night the judge was improving, and every
thing seemed favorable for his speedy re-
cOVerY.

The st. PduI'S Purposes.

MITCHELL, Dakota, May 16.-The report
that the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
road is about to make an onward move
ment towards California via Chamberlain
and the Black Hills is not true. I rode
over from McGregor, Ia, through Dakota
to Mitchell with Manager Merrill of the
st. Paul road. 1 have spent almost the
entire day with him in his private car.
Mr.. Merrill talked very freely and frankly
about what the st. Paul road was to do.
When asked him if the st. Paul was 60
ing to build any new road this summer, he
said:
mo" emphatically. 'Our policy" he
continued, sis to stock up, ballast, and per-
feet the thousand miles of new road we
have in the Far West. We do not propose
to build new extensions unless compelled
to by rival roads. Of course the st. Paul
cannot afford to allow rival organizations
to monopolize new territory.
"But suppose the new Dakota capitol
shall be located at Pierre" suggested.
''Why then we should build there as soon
as possible. The st. Paul people would
like to have the new capitol either at
point on our road. Still if the capitol
our road we will be compelled to build
there"
"Are you making any effort to control
the location of the new Dakota capitol ~
l asked.
''Not the slightest. All the news we have
about the new capitol 1 get form the
newspapers"
l know this statement to be true, for
many Dakota people came into Managers
Merrilrs car and talked freely and publicly
with him, and he told every one of them
that the road was not trying to influence
IFS location. In fact, he said over and
over again that any location except Pierre
woald suit the st. Paul people.
Three million acres of land now held by
the Indians, west of Chamberlain and
Pierre and on the west bank of the Mis-
souri,, are to be thrown open to settlement
as soon as surveyed. Mr.. Merrill went
down to Yankton to see when it was to be
surveyed, so as to have his road ready to
take the crush of emIgrants and land buy
ers who will throng there. Thousands of
people are awaiting at Chamberlain, the
end of the st. Paul road, for the territory
to be surveyed. The st. Paul will not build
into the new territory unless the North
western takes the initiatory step. Then
the two roads will go west abreast, about
forty miles apart. On asking Mr.. Merrill
when the 3O,O00,OO0 acres of new land would
come into the market, he said:
Il cannot tell. There is no money to pay
for surveying it now. The land agent at
Yankton says if the railroad will advance
the money for the survey they will do it al
once"
care you prepared to advance the
money!"
"Yes." ELI PERKINS.

KILLED BY THE CIRS.
Michael Curran Run Over by Train and
Shockingly MangIed-

Michael Curran Run Over by a Train and
shockingly MangIed-
About s o'clock yesterday morning
over near the Seventh street bridge, under
the following circumstances: Michael
Curran, who is the unfortunate man killed,
was about sixty years of age. He lived
with his family, consisting of wife and
four children, in small shanty, in
the valley spanned by the
Seventh street bridge, and but
a few rods from the track where the acci-
dent occurred. About o'clock he left his
shanty and went out to the track, as is
supposed,to gather up some sticks of wood,
or pieces of railroad ties for fire wood.
While thus engaged freight train consist
ing of Northern Pacific cars passed up,
and having been switched off began run
ming back on the switch track on down
grade. It was on this switch track that
the deceased was standing, but with his
back to the train that was slowly backing
down upon him. By this time another
train had made its appearance. This train
was coming up in an opposite direction
and it seems that the deceased became so
interested in watching this last train that
he wholly forgot the train first spoken of
that was backing down upon him, and
stood looking at the other without the least
idea that the train behind him was likely
to crush him to death. As he thus stood
gazing at the approaching train, number
of people seeing his danger, ran
to warn him, shouting all the
time to him as loud as they could to ge:
out of the way. Either he did not hear
them, or if he did he did not understand
them, for he stood still and continued
to look at the approaching train in front
of him. In a second more the train
struck him, knocked him down, and two
of the cars ran over him before they could
be stopped. He was horribly mangled
and must have been killed instantly. The
engineer of the train is Frank Humes
The engine is No. 800. The coroner was
notified, ,and Messrs. MCCARTHY & Donnelly
went down and got the remains and re-
moved them to their undertaking rooms
1t is not expected that an inquest will be
held as no new facts are likely to be shown

The Thomss Festival. .

The interest in the great festival is in
creasing, and as the famous orchestra ap-
proaches st. Paul the impatiencs for the
opening gala night is shared by the public
and the great festival chorus which has been
solong in training for the most notable mu-
sical event which has ever occurred in the
Northwest. The enthusiasm of the singers
is contagious, and a committee of the fol-
lowing ell-known ladies has been ap-
pointed to take charge of the floral decor

Il SERIOUS FALL.

Judge Chandler Seriously Injured by q
Fall Down Stairs-His Condition at one
Time Critical, but Slowly Improving.
On Wednesday evening Judge Chandler,
the general agent of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul road, met with very
serious accident indeed, and one that came
near being fatal.
The room usually occupied by his daugh-
ters was being reftted and repainted, and
they had taken for the night
another room in different part
of the house. About IL o'clock
they supposed they heard some one in their
room and they accordingly called to their
father. 1t is supposed the Judge jumped
out of bed without being fully awake and
started for the room occupied by the
daughters. The reason for thinking that
he was not awake is that he says the first
thing he recollects is his striking on the
floor. In attempting to get to the room
where his daughters were he fell over the
banisters to the floor below. 1t is thought
that as he went over he must have
slid part way down and
thus lessened the distance he fell. Judge
Chandler is man that will ordinarily
weigh two hundred and fifty pounds, and
it is believed that if he had fallen over the
banisters at the joint where Re probably
first reached them he would have fallen so
far as to produce fatal results. These are
the principal reasons given for thinking
that he must have slid part way down on
the banisters.
Of course, as soon as it was known that
ha had fallen there was a
commotion in the house. He
was so seriously injured that he could not
move, and a mattress was placed under
him on the floor, where he was allowed to
remain for some time, and until he was

SALTWATER GLoBULEs.

IWo men, whose names it is unneces-
sary to give, were fined $40 each in the
police court yesterday morning for COM
mitting crime against nature.
1t is claimed by persons qualified to
judge that the dirt has been removed
much more rapidly from the inew street
JOB since the wagons were substi-
tuted for the cars.
Preparatory to commencing his intended
Improvements on his recent purchase from
the German Catholic society, Mr.. Elliott
yesterday caused the removal of the stairs
at the head of Chestnut street.
Nelson Ledal only fired one shot from
his revolver on Second street last Wednes-
day evening, but the sport cost him SIS in
the police court next morning. 1t was
surmised that Mr.. Ledal would not have
practiced with his revolver if he had not
been chock full-for this he paid ten ad-
dltlonal dollars, making twenty-five in all.
The time of the district court is yet &C.
cupled with the appeal of Margaret Bruins
WICK, In the matter of the Street Railway
d transfer company. James Mulvey was
excused from further attendance on the
above entitled case on account of sickness
IN his family. By consent of counsel the
trial was continued before eleven Jurors
instead of twelve.
The observant proprietor of one of the
first class barber shops in this city esti-
mates that six men out of ten carry revol-
vers. This conclusion has not been arrived
at by any meddlesome spying on the part
of the person referred to, bat the teIl-taIs
weapon will obtrude when carried in the
hip pocket as the owner seats himself in
the tonsorial chair.
A slight sensation was caused On
Wednesday evening by a lad ten or twelve
years of age, who, with apparent candor.
stated that an attempt had been made to
kidnap him on the afternoon of the day
above named. He also claimed that he
could identify the two men who made the
attack on him. An investigation proved
that for purposes of his own the little chap
had been dealing in fiction,
A team attached to a delivery wagon,
both belonging to Isaac Staples, ran away
yesterday morning from the rafting
ground in the lower part of the city.
While the wagon was being unloaded the
animals became somewhat uneasy and
were spoken to by the driver, which, it
seems, did not procure the desired effect,
as the span started with a jump and ran
northward at their best speed, depositing
the vehicle at number of different places
along their route, reaching the vicinity of
Capron's store in good running trim, their
speed being impeded with nothing but the
tongue. At the point above stated one of
the horses fell, which resulted in their cap
ture uninjured, except few scratches on
the fore legs of one of the pair.
