Dakota iSchoOlnsarn,s.

A good many stories are told of the pluck
and dash of young ladies in securing claims
in Dakota. This, said to be narrated by an
Iowa lady, is good, and only deficient in the
name of the heroine:
A school teacher in Osceola county, Iowa,
started for Dakota year and half ago.
and as the land was not in market in the
vicinity of Columbia, Brown county, she
took quarter section as squatter's claim.
After holding it for short time, she sold it
for $3.50 taking notes in payment. The
notes became due and the man tried to skip
the country, and hearing of it in time she
followed him twenty-five miles and made
him pay her, when he cody
remarked that now she had the
money there was no use of his
leaving and that she need never worry about
her not getting along in the west. The next
claim was presumption, when to her sur
prise one morning she spied shanty on her
claim, built by a saucy fellow who informed
her that he intended to hold the claim. She
told him she would give him just one hour
and a half to move his shanty off or she
would tear it down for him. The time being
up she took an ak and made her way onto the
roof, and soon it lay in broken pieces at her
ishment, finally he picked up the pieces and
started without saying word. The next diff
fculty was when she went to secure the pa
pers of title to her land, fellow had secured
the aid of two tricky lawyers..and commenced
suit, expecting 70 beat her out of her claim ;
she plead her own cause, made out her own
papers and won the suit. The poor fellow
knowing that he had one advantage over the
weaker sex, imbibed too freely and had a
glorous drunk. (she did not say whether
the lawyers shared with him in the celebra-
ton or not.) And right here her advice to
all who are claim hunting is to beware OF
lawyers. After getting deed of the pre-
emption, she filed on homestead and Sc
cured a tree claim, remaining all summer,
and at the close of the year started for home,
drove over 300 miles alone, made good time,
had pleasant trip and has in her possession
800 acres of land within mile and halt OF
a town. She says she was never sick, not
even with cold, never became discouraged
or homesick, although alone in her shanty.

a HORRIBLE DEATH.
John DooIey. q Railroad Man, Roasted

John DooIey. q Railroad Man, Roasted
AEire yesterday Morning.
YESTERDAYS morning at o'clock man
named John Dooley who was employed as
night switch-man on the Milwaukee & st.
Paul road was burned to death in the yard
house of the Transfer railway company at
Eighth avenue south. An alarm of fire was
sounded at ten minutes of four o'clock and
after the fire in the yard house was extin-
guished the body of Dooley was found in an
upright position against a table near the
door of the building and it was burned to o
crisp.
Near the body were found a knife and a
slung shot, the former having been borrowed
from friend of the deceased known as
sFrenchy," who boarded with him at 252
Sixth avenue south. Such a weapon as a
slung shot was never seen in the possession
of Dooley while alive, and that fact has
excited suspicious of foul play. All the
doors were unlocked and there was no diff
Guilty in escaping through the windows.
The theory is advanced that Dooley was in
toxicated when the building caught fire.
presumably from lamp that was left burn
ing in corner of the building and which
probably had been upset by accident, but in
justice TO the deceased, IL should be added
that this talk of inebriation is secuted by the
friends of the deceased, who aver that he
was temperate in his habits.
Dooley was twenty-seYen years old and IN
married. He came to the city last April from
Chicago and had been employed as night
switchman until week ago when ne discon-
tinued for few days on account of sickness.
He went on duty again on Thursday night
IF +ba
other employees, who left him alone in the
building where his burned remains were dis
covered the following morning. His fellow
workmen speak in high terms of the unfor-
tunate man. His mother lives in st. Louis
and is widow with five children whom she
supports by keeping boarders.
A post mortem examination was held up
on the remains, which resulted in dissipating
all suspicion of foul play. The surgeons
found that he came to his death from burn
ing.

French Political Partu

The Minneapolis French-Canadian Politi-
cal club held meeting last evening. A
lively debate ensued, in which J. B. A. Par
adise and Zr Demeules were the opponents.
Mr.. Demeules opened the discussion and at
tackled Mr.. Paradise in no mild terms. His
words created considerable dissension and
effected division in the club. When Mr..
Paradise made reply, however, absolutely
vindicating himself Mr.. Demueles
was found wanting In
proofs to sustain his severe assertions. The
members of the club allege that it was the
undonbted intention of Mr.. Demeules to ere
ate division between the members of the
club for the sake of personal revenge because
he cannot become a member. The club re-
fuses to admit him because of his boasts that
he is the one teacher of the French popula-
ton of the city. He is now working for Pills
bury.

Ames candidacy before they discovered the
treachery of Jake Becker, the saloon keeper,
who moved, in the boiling convention, the
endorsement of Pillsbury, are now thorough

D. B. JOHNSON used the following sensible
language at the Market hall mass meeting:
81 can say for DIR. Ames thatI consider there
is not a more honest, iberal-minded and up
right man in the city. If you lose the con-
troll of the city at this election, Democrats, it
will be considerable time before you will
get it again. We are now on the eve of
national, presidential, election, and there
fore it is of the most vital Importance that
We should unite. Whoever gets the nomina-
ton of the Democratic party secures my
services and my aid until the close of the
polls on election day [Cheers.l" Consist

ing he can get 1000 votes for G. A. Pills

Sixth street, DuJ the present ordinance
places the limit at Thirteenth street. The
committee on railroads had decided as Il
compromise measure that the company be
given the right to use steam down to Third
street until July l, 1884. The report was
adopted.
Aid. Andrews suggested that the words
river side of Third street be inserted.
Aid. Holscher approved the suggestion.
Aid. Morse moved to strike out the words
Third street and insert Fourth street. He
disliked very much to make the concession,
| but considered it unavoidable. He urged
the Fourth street amendment, in view of the
many building Improvements projected this
spring.
Aid Cooley moved an amend
ment to the amen dment
making the terminus at Washington avenue,
arguing that the grade on First avenue south
at either Third or Fourth street was too steep
to make that point practical term mus.
Aid. Hashow took no stock in that plan.
He believed the motor could be stopped at
any point between Bridge square and Lake
Calhoun.
The amendment to the amendment was
adopted to 10.
Aid. Walsh had made up his mind not to
say word. He had learned that compro-
mise had meen made, and this compromise
was that the motor should stop at Third
street. Sixth street was accepted by the coun-
Gil some time ago, but now it is the object
to make it Washington avenue. I think it
is unfair, and shall certainly not vote for it.
Aid. Glenn was of the same opinion. He
felt loath to say word. He was in hopes that
the warm friends and those directly inter
ested would accept the compromise as pre-
sented This last movement would tend to
prejudice the people against the interests of
the morton.
Aid. Lee voted for the amendment
because he did not think it
made much difference whether the motor
stopped at Third street or at Washington
avenue, yet he believed it would be better to
stop the motor at Third street than to allow it
to run farther. He believed the people had
some rights in the premises. Those who
live on the line have rights and those who
live on the East side also have rights that
should be considered, but he should oppose
the question as amended.
AID Hashow was suspicious. The same
question will again come before the council
July /. They will want another extension
then. Consequently it had better be settled
now by cutting it off at Third street.
AID. PHLsBURY
called the vice president to the chair, in order
| to oppose the extension. II his uote could
settle the matter he should vote to stop the
| motor at Thirteenth street. But in conse-
| Quence Of the buildings about to be built at
