Judge Clifford.

mlLCHtll hepuDlcan. JQugo Glt-
ford is a man. of positive character and
fine abilities, whose integrity is beyond
question. He is a pioneer Dakotian,
and his acquaintance with the people
and with the condition and needs of
the territory renders him pre-eminent-
ly a fitting man to represent Dakota
in Washington. AS South Dakotain
he properly represents the section which
has most at stake in the coming con-
test for statehood. The nomination
of Judge Clifford assures republican sue
cess at thepolls,a ,andwill doubtless go far
toward perpetuating republican power
in Dakota.
Bismarck Tribune: AS the details
Of the work of the Pierre convention
become known, and as the outcome is
given sober second thought, the more
satisfactory is the nomination of Judge
Clifford. His selection was made pos
sible by voters secured from the
local candidates from all sections of
the territory, and north, south and
central Dakota and the Black Hills
were almost equally lyrepresented on the
decisive ballot. It is not distinctive
victory for any particular section, which
fact is in itself subject for mutual
congratulation.
Yankton Press: 1t is a popular
belief that Dakota is good for 10000
republican majority, and if the figures
are correct Judge Clifford will go into
congress with this magnificent back
ing. He is a republican of tlme-tried
elity-unwayering in his fidelity and
unsyerving in his faith in the prin-
ciples of the political organization
which lifted the country out of the
vortex of dissolution and has carried
it forward to the grandest achieve
ments ever attained by any nation
among the races of the globe. The
republican party of Dakota will ac-
cord him hearty and earnest support,
the differences of the ante-cpnvention
contest will pass from mind, and when
November tells its story to the nation,
! its theme will be, Dakota rolls up its
old majority for the republican ticket
Valley City Times: The nomina-
tion of o. s. Clifford by the Pierre con-
vention seems to be surprise to most
people. Mr.. Clifford, while possessing,
we are told, a marked degree Of legal
ability, has not been very prominent
in the affairs Of Dakota, eitherpolitical-
" or otherwise He had not been
prominently mentioned for the position,
and was, strictly speaking, the dark
horse Of the convention. Probably no
man could have been selected from the
south who will be more acceptable to
the north as they make his acquaint-
ance Although the south manifested
no disposition to depreciate the services
of the present member, it is not sur
prising that there was an earnest and
general expression in favor Of the se-
lection Of d candidate whose interests
are more closely unidentified by location
with their special measures than one
from the north could be.

THE only ground for confidence
that the democrats profess to have is
chat the Germans of Ohio, and es-
pecially the German brewers and lager
beer drinkers, will be led by general
dread of prohibition Legislation, by
hostility to the Scott liquof7aw, and
animosity against Mr.. Blaine, to CONG
over in a mass to the democratic side
and support the democratic candidates
IN October. But for this hope, the
friends Of Mr.. Cleveland would resign

here is a certain stern old colo
mel, stationed at present at Aldershot,
who is a great stickIer for all the
officers being acquainted with the
name and geneaIogIes of the various
men in their troops. A well known
joyiaI captain, who was never yet at
u loss for a reply to any question
asked him, was, Il few days since, put
subIimrIy through his faclngs. Cap

was the astonishing reply. The colo

to see him later on in private.

The Sleeper.

He will be there. Peradventme he
leaneth his chin upon a cane, so that
when the moment of deep and profound
slumber cometh upon him his chin slip
peth of, and with bang of his head up
on the pew in front of him he is awaken
ed. Or the slumberer may sit bolt up
right and nodin time to his sleep and re-
gular breathing. Only when you cast
your eyes upon him, the watchful wife,
of his bosom stabs him with her elbow.
and he glareth on the congregation as one
who should say, He that sayeth that /
slept, the same is liar and a villain and
horse thief" Or, if he be so that he
leaneth fis head back until the lid
theI eof falleth down tetween his should
ers, and he playeth fantastic tunes with
his nose, insomuch that the bows in the
gallery make merry over the same, then
it is hazardous to awaken the slumberer
right suddenly, because he dreameth Of
divers things, and sayeth to the tithing
man who shaketh him up, Hey? ha! hal
yes, all right; Pm up"
And thus is the congregation scanda-
lized. But if he foldeth his handker-
chief over the back of the pew in front,
and boweth his head devoutly on the
same, even in that moment when the
text is pronounced, then will that sleeper
trouble no one, but will slumber sweetlv
on until the time of the benediction; and
will awake refreshed and smiling, and he
will extol the sermon and mas Nifty the
preacher. He is the old timer, from

The Volcanoes of Hawaii.

The Sandwich Islands boast of two
natural wonders, the largest extinct and
the largest active volcano In the world.
The former is located on the Island of
Mani, the summit being nearly 11,OO0
feet above the level of the sea, and the
crater over forty-eight miles in circum-
ference. One can look down into the
crater 1000 ieet, the sides now terraced
and covered with sandalwood, giant ferns
and wonderful profusion of tropical
flowers and shrubs. The active volcano
is situated in the Island of Hawaii. The
crater is situated on a spur of Mauna
Loa, 1000 feet above the sea level. The
crater is not cone, but great pit on
level bench, nine miles in circumference.
You 90 down, Gown over this almost
perpendicular wall 800 feet, and stand
on the floor of of the crater. This is the
place of eternal burnings, the house of
everlasting fire of Hawaiian mythology.
The area at the bottom of the crater is
not liquid mass. but for miles all round
there spreads scene of unearthly gran.
deur.. Five or six lakes of fire lie to left
and right; the floor beneath is so not one
can scarcely walk over it; lava oozes up
through the assures. Huge cones twenty
or thirty feet high, made by the bubbles
of lava, rise through the seams and are
cooled by the air.

ESQUlMAUX DOGS.
Able to Drag a Sledge Sixty Miles Day
Over Toe and Snow.


/
Over Ioe and Snow.
Toronto Globe.
When at Fort Albany we saw several
Esquimaux dogs, species of canine un-
known in civilized communities. These
dogs are very large-larger than our
Newfoundland and much stronger when
in condition. Their strength, however,
varies. In the winter, when they are
well fed for driving, they are much
stronger than in the summer, when they
are poorly fed, without exercise and Ian
guild from the heat, which is very telling
upon them, as their native climate far
to the north is very severe. Their colors
are white and yellow-while impure
breeds are white and black-their hair
thick and bushy. and the tail long, bushy,
and curling up at the end. At times
they are very quiet, at others very saw
age.
They are driven ordinarily five in num-
Der, but often many more, before sleds
one, invariably female leading, for the
others will follow her more readily.
Each dog has separate rein, which is
held by the driver, who has also a great
long whip made of sealskin, plated as
ordinary whips, but with the heavy part
of the lash about the thickness of nuns
wrist. The lash is from six to nine faith
oms long, and the handle. made of wood
from foot to foot and half in length.
When dog is not drawing properly or
misbehaving in any way he or she is
drawn by his or her separate rein out
from the rest of the pack to receive chas-
tisement with the whip, and so we'll do
they know what is coming that Just as
the rein is pulled the victim begins yelp-
ing and struggling to correct his or her
ways before the whip comes laundering
along. Great skill is required in the use
of these whips, for if not properly band
led the great heavy lash cracks around
the manipulator's body and legs, inflict-
iHg very painful and sometimes severe
wounds, but in the hands of person
skilled in the use of them these whips
can be used with great precision and ef-
feet, sometimes completely cutting a
dogs ear off.
Very remarkable stories are told about
the manner in which the Esduimaux
handle their whips, but they are, be-
lieve, slightly exaggerated. 1t is said
hat they have frequently attacked and
killed white bears, the most ferocious
animals in the vicinity of James hay,
with knife attached to the end of the
whip. One of our party tried his hand"
with one ofthese dog whips and succeed

A Touching Story.
Merchant Traveller.

Softly the tender touch of the June
breezes fell upon the face of the dying
youth and stirred the beautiful brown
hair in careless curls upon his pure
white forehead. In golden cage by the
window, a bird sang its low sweet notes.
and By the bedside stood those who low
ed him. The glorious sunlight flooded
house, and street, and park and tighten
ed the blue of heaven. 1t was such a
morning as brings life to the world, not
death, and the joyous face Of nature, was
In strange contrast with the saddened
hearts of those who stood waiting the
coming of the invisible angels. The blue
eyes, fast fading, opened feebly, and the
silver haired minister bent over the
youth and with quivering voice spoke to
him.
DO you know me, Frank"
Yes, sir" was the low response, "and
all the others who are with you. 1t is
so kind of them to be near me as the
shadows darken, and the mists of the val
ley thicken and chill me with their
dampness
Are you quite ready to die, dear boy?"
Yes, sir; oh, yes, quite ready; you
know ever since the first robin of spring
sang in the trees, there has been man
next door learning to play on the cor
net"
A cloud p"ssed over the sun; the bird
in its golden cage stopped its song. the
blue eyes closed wearily-the invisible
angels had come.
