an old Waterloo veteran between so

to maintain the chi Of deceased

the reporter misstates, that he could
name a ticket for the Democracy
that would draw thousands upon thou
sands Of votes from the Republican

doubt. But he declined to name the
ticket, and the Democracy are now
in cave of gloom for fear they may
not pick out the men the Brooklyn
preacher has 10 his minds eve. If he
were to name the ticket, and if the
Democratic party were to adopt it,
possibly it would wake up the day
after the election to discover that he

Arrival of Family who Footed it From
New York CITY to Redfisld.
Redfeld Dispatch.
On Tuesday evening last Mr.. Henry
G. Timm, his wife, two boys aged four
and nine years, and daughter aged seven
years, arrived in Red6eld with all their
earthly possessions upon two.wheeled

the chances for getting home IN Dakota
they resolved to come out. Not having
great amount Of cash to spare, and having
the season before them in which to make
the journey, they loaded some wearing
apparel, and small quantity of other
goods on hand cart aud started out on

ing the entire distance, except the ride
above mentioned.

Redfeld as possible. Though it will be
difficult for them to find first class
claim within many miles of this city, v e
hope they may strike something remun-
erative to do and eventually get hold OF
q farm in this locality; their pluck en-.
titles them toit.
Mrs. Timm. an intelligent woman OF
about thirty. five years, took much pride
in pointing out her bright appearing
children, and said they had generally
met with kind and hospitable treatment
on their journey. but were quite glad
they had reached their journeys end.
NJ g. Cobb, the big-hearted insurance
agent, who happened to be present
when the travellers halted near the may
or's office, soon had those congregated
shelling out their pocket change into hi'
hat, and as result handed over purs,
of five or SIX dollars to Mrs. Timm ant
