Vie,cs of the Pierre Contention.

Probably the superstitious connect the bad
luck of the Fargo delegation to Pierre with the
fact that 1t was composed of the ill-omened num-
Der thirteen. They came home with heads so
sore that the expected convalesence has not yet
set IN. In the language of sacred song, sit
comes to them more and more,'' that they did
not exhibit the wisdom of the serpent or the
skill of Sullivan in the contest at Pierre, and
thatthe jolly obese major, whom they were so
eager to down, illustrated at their expense the
claim of his friends, that he never stays whipped
if in fact he really discovers that he is down
Their inward gnawing is more productive of
melancholy and gloom from the fact that they
went down to the convention with banners high
and inflated with the taunt that they would ship
home the remains of the defeated by way of the
lakes (Big Stone) as John Van Buren, said about
Cass in 1S4S. Capt. Raymond and his staff were
uncompromising and exasperating in the assur-
ance that they had the thing securely set
up But they not only lost
the nomination through the super
ior address of the moguls whom they had
expected to depose, but were defeated in all the
adjuncts. The new commission for the terri
tory was put into the hands of the other fellows.
The northern section was made specially obnox-
ious to them in the face of their fearful protests
Their prayers were for any shape but that. Atfi-
| davits will be required to convince that they dc
not scratch the party ticket in November. The
major came home by the way of st. Paul with
light and festive step, and had but time TO re-
celve the congratulations of friends and listen to
the new version Of Gray's elegy sung by Col
| Gutrippah, when he was called to Bismarck to
| convene with the board to receive the new peni-
Tertiary and adjust accounts, as we'll as to ar
range the details of the campaign, so far as the
| North Dakota part of the commission are con-
cerned. There is hardly supporter of Raymond
on the commission, and some small counties
! have two members at the expense of larger ones.
| Dakota politics peculiar. Skill and adept
ness, brains in fact, are worth more than mere
! deadheads.

Banished from the Poles.

The fire district telegraph poles have shed
all electric light wires, and the fire commits
sioners don't prapose to have any of the fire
alarm machinery jeopardized by such. An
application was made yesterday to run the
electric light wire on the fire alarm poles
from the Seven corners to the electric light
staff on Summit square, but as there has
been resolution passed by the council as
also by the fire commissioners, that no such
use of the fire alarm poles shall be made,
the gas company will have to find some
other way of reaching their electric staff

were also made of oats, the heads of which hung
gracefully around her bare arms, resembling
point lace. Her hair was of that hue which
would denominate her blond the world over.
On her head she wore crown of grain, grasses
and flowers. Her dress was trimmed with a
kind of grass resembling fur. Around her neck
she wore chain of sunhower seeds. In her left
hand she carried bunch of flowers, while her
right grasped som flax with beautiful prairie
pigion sitting on her wrist. She is a coquette
and daisy, and we expect to hear her flirting
with thousands of eastern dudes.

Admiral Hewitt In Abyssinia.

The special correspondent Of the
London Daily Nescs, who accompanied
Admiral Hewitt on his mission to Abys-
sinia, writing from Adowa, gives an
interesting account Of the experiences
OF the mission so far. He says: "The
other day we witnessed wedding, and
we had followed the wedding party
some distance, having resolved to pre-
sent the husband with present of dol
lars. He received them with much
pleasure, but when thanking us. a
mounted soldier rode up. snatched
them from his hand, and threw them
at the head of our interpreter. This
was one of many insults we had re-
ceived from the troops of the governor.
Since the day Of our arrival he and his
officials have been most discourteous.
He pointedly delayed calling on the
Admiral, and when he condcsccnded
to do so was so drunk and stupid that
he had to be supported by his inter-
prefer on his road home. he forbade
the people in the district and towns to
bring us supplies. In Adowa there are
no shops or hostelries of any descrip-
tion. the people getting their goods

A Hebrew Girls Dowry.

Settling the dowry is one of the most
important parts of Hebrew engage
ment. Very few Hebrew girls marry
money value from $1,000 TO $50, 900.
Sometimes there is some difficulty in
arranging this. The proposed brides
father offers $1,000 and the proposed
groom's father thinks it not enough.
They argue, wranglo. bargain and
finally compromise. No written agree
ment is taken, but it is officially given
out that on the wedding day so much,
say $1,000. will be paid down in hard
cash to the bridegroom before the cere-
mony takes place. Here is where some
sharp practice occasionally comes in.
The brides father, after he is assured
that the groom is in love with his
daughter, tries to beat down the dowry,
and the groom holds him to his express
ed intention. An instance occurred
here recently in which Boston He
brew fell in love with one of the many
pretty Brooklyn Hebrew young ladies.
He became engaged, and $40, 900 was
promised him with the girl. On the
marriage day he came to her house
with his friends. The money was not
forthcoming, and he was met with re-
peated explanation and excuses. He
held to his verbal bond, but finding
that the intention of the brides father
was actually to give him much less
than had been agreed upon he made
excuse that he wished to get shaved
and left the bridal party. Once out Of
the house he secured n hack, drove to
the New York Central Railroad station
and took the first train for Boston; nc
persuasion could afterward bring him
back.-Brooklyn Eagle.
