Heroes and Heroines of the Border
Bold, dasbing, adventurous and

ure IN reading the narrative Of
their wonderful exploits,
The times which produced those
heroes and heroines mark a period

These hardy pioneers coupled virtue

New YORK, Sept. %, 1888.
The Republican Convention at
Richfield Springs has done its work
we'll. The proceedings were char
acterized by the utmost harmony
throug bout, the demoralizing lines
of factionalism were almost entirely
obliterated, and an earnestness was
manifested during the deliberations
which augures the best results for
the future Of the party. Another
point to be dwelt upon is the fact
that the State Committee will prob.
ably devise some new method of Sc
Letting delegates by the State Con,
ventions. Senator Miller's speech
on the necessity Of such a step has
caused a great deal Of thought, par
ticulary as it showed that he had
long and maturely considered the
matter. So far as the ticket is
concerned, it is the old one, the on
ly new name on it being Pliny T.
Sexton for State Treasurer, a name
we'll known throughout the State.
The New York City delegation at
one time desired to present the
name Of Jesse Seligman, the we'll
known Hebrew banker for the Of
flee, but that gentleman declined
peremptorily to accept the honor.
They then thought Of Ex-senator
Einstein, but he found no favor
with the delegates, and his name was
dropped.
The Massachusetts Republicans
are getting we'll in line for action,
and though Butler affects to treat
their work lightly, yet he cannot
but be annoyed at the earnestness
of purpose, and the obliteration of
self that characterizes the members
of the opposing party. Butler at
present cracks jokes at the expense
Of his opponents. After election
day the boot will be on the other
foot.
The Republicans Of our sister
State, New Jersey, have likewise
not failed in firm cooperation.
They selected Judge Jonathan Dix
on, a man who is we'll able to lead
forces against Leon Albeit. He is
well known Throughout the State,
esteemed for his personal and judi
cial qualities and he combines in a
happy manner those qualities which
it behooves an executive officer to
possess. The Democrats have been
shouting that with Albeit they will
have walk-over. ''Dixon will not
alone give them a good fight, said
leading and we'll informed Repub.
lican," but will make it extremely
doubtful whether New Jersey can
in future be classed as a Democratic
State
I hear that male member of one

averse to proselyte making has

duct than most Of the rabid and So

A California Idiot.

The Saratoga correspondent of the
Brooklyn Eagle says: A very hand.
some young lady, whose name is A.
W. Rich, from California, and on her
wedding tour, has created quite SEN
sation in Saratoga. She is stopping at
the Grand Union, and is to be seen
walking up and down the piazza of the
hotel for hours at q time in company
with q beautiful little black and tan
dog. She seems to be wonderfully
fond Of this pet. The little creature
was made wedding present, and cost
$500. The lady ordered for the dog
earrings and q gold collar of special
pattern. The earrings are worth
50, 900, and the collar, which is studded
with emeralds and pearls, is worth
5000. This lady and her pet are not
only the talk OF the town, but have
created the greatest sensation known
here for years. A servant is provided
to feed the dog and attend him when
his mistress does not have him in
charge. The dog answers the name OF
Darling" He must be seen to be
fully appreciated.
