1t is rumored that a young attorney in
Mitchell is somewhat interested in the latter
phase of the case.
Redfeld proposes to put its gallant broom
brigade in the field if the effort succeeds to
saddle upon it the entire cost of the county
seat war, some $4,000, as proposed by the
bill before the legislature. 1t is asserted that
men from that city stole the records from
Old Ashton and brought on the war. They
insist that if they were residents of their city,
they acted entirely on their own responsible
ity and did not have the approval of the COM
munity. and the city is no more liable than
if they had stolen horses; they aided to pro-
tect the records for the common good, they
claim. 1t looks as if they did not have
many friends at Bismarck,
Major Picker, the gallant leader of the
south on the capital question, is making an
earnest fight IN the legislature for woman
suffrage The Bismarck Blade, the Demo
cratic daily, endorses him and the cause. 1t
says: Major Picker made an eloquent plea
in the house yesterday, for ''woman's suf-
frage'' in Dakota The world is waking up
to this important question, and, We see no
reason why the intelligent mothers, wives
and daughters of Dakota should not vote. 1t

and large increase to women's salaries for
the work they are capable of performing.
Give them the ballot, and it will have puri-
flying effect on the political carcass.
No doubt the Volga Tribune would win the
hat on this: If the voters of Dakota were
permitted to vote for the location of a capital
for the territory at once, we will wager
straw hat that the capital would remain in
North Dakota for this reason: Every little
burg in South Dakota is an aspirant for capt.
tai honors; and with that spirit of rivalry
that now exists in South Dakota, no site
would receive votes enough to secure the
prize. While North Dakota on questions of
importance do harmonic, aud knowing the
weakness of South Dakota, would stand by
their fayorite, and walk off with the persim-
mons.
The first birth in Park River precinct in
Walsh county, happened in the family of 6.
B, Gross, January 26, Of Dakota weight, and
this fact is made use of in determining the
most exciting contest in the legislature over
the seat Of a member, Hon. Jud. La Moure.
This Park River voting district claims to have
cast Ala votes, and the legislative committee
threw out 260 of them as excessive, which
gave the seat to La Moure. 1t is now claimed
that it is absurd 10 suppose that there has
never been but one birth in 4 settled COM
munity Of Ala voters, and that this fact
shows that most Of the votes must have been
fraudulent, and It is added that q Dakota
community So lacking in public spirit and
patriotism don't deserve the right of suffrage
anyway. 1t is replied that there are great
number of newly married people there and
a few months will relieve the community of
this stigma. The local pap n which suggests
that the name of the town be given the new
conner, sees IN this birth a pleasant fore
shadowing of the future prosperity of Park

the Standing Rock Indian agency states that
10y the recent death OF Young Antelope,
Stanley Huntley, a newspaper man, who was
81 one time connected with the Dakota press,
but now somewhere east, becomes chief Of
the Teton nation. The manner IN which
Huutlcy becomes chief Of all the Sioux tribes
g. like a fable. Years ago, before Sitting
Bull surrendered, Huntley was sent by a
Chicago paper 10 Northern Montana to inter
view the warrior. Tired Of securing the
plains, DE crossed the border and became the
guest OF Major Walsh, at Wood Mountain, in
the British Northwest territory. Here camped
around the majors post were the old men
and squaws, among whom were Little
Knife, the hereditary chieftain OF
the rctons, who was too old for war and
buffalo trails. Little Knife Injured his limb
while dlsmouutng from pony, and the
medicine men failed TO give any relief and
the old chief WAS given up to die. Huntley
appeared on the scene and, with ncwspa-
per mans extensive knowledge, bound the
wound with leaves and oil aud he recovered
Huntley was adopted, aud last fall when sit
ting Bull and troupe were east, an adopted
sister OF Huutlcy's was with them and recog-
uized Huutey. Little Knife had two sons,
Mountain Buu and Young Antelope. The
former WAS killed some time ago aud now by
Antclope's death, Huutlry becomes chief. as

name is Wsukpcywaukan, or the Holy Leaf.

The place in question certainly was gorgeous

The A0e Of MelanchoIv.
From the Medical Times.

From the Medical Times.
The prevalence Of melancholia, mild or in
tense, amongst the cultivated classes, and
especially amongst educated and reflective
men, in these days, would, there are good
grounds for believing, seem portentous could
It only be faithfully set forth Could the
secrets of some case-books be revealed, 1t
would be found that men in high places, pro-
fessionsl men IN active EN- ployment, business
men in prosperous circum stances, literary
men who are delighting the world with their
wit and genius, artists who are Illuminating
life with glowing colors, students who are
gaining prizes and distinctions, tradesmen
who have climbed TO success on the ruin
heaps Of competition, and idlers who have
only to amuse themselves, are all visited by
melancholy, revealed only to their doctors
and sometimes TO their domestic circle, which
darkens existence as with terrible storm
clouds now and then, or rob it persistenty
Of brightness, reducing 1t to mOnotonous
lcaden gloom. Behind many Shining

ness; under many a stolid exterior there Is
racking, mental misery. A curious yet
familiar sight IL Is to see the mask suddenly
cast aside in the consulting-room, and the
face that but q minute ago was cheerful or
serene gathering into an expression Of suf-
feriug OF despair as the skeleton in the cup
board Is disclosed. We are all meeting in
daily life victims OF morbid melancholy, whom
we should as soon suspect OF being afflicted
With smallpox or jaundice, but who are
even in our presence struggling beneath
load of it. and who, when we leave them,
sink nigh exhausted By the efforts required
for its concealment. Could we in invisible
companionship follow home that friend who
has delighted US at the dinner table by his
brilliant conversation. we should perhaps see
him throw himself In his chair, in his dark
study, and sit for hours, absorbed in vague,
dismal thought. Could we thus pursue the
Judge who has won our admiration in court
by the logical precision aud ethical propriety
with which he has distinguished the otfenses

Dinner Parties of Sir the Best.
From All the Year Round.

An ordinary party is not, it may be said,
the condition of things most fayoroble for
conversation. OF all forms of entertain ment
dinner parties may be the most agreeable,
and yet as "a rule, they only produce utter
boredom. Nor Is the cause far to seek, for
success can never, except by accident, fol-
low in any affair where the most ordinary
rules are so dagrantly set at defiance as they
generally are in this matter. This being the
case, it is not to be wondered at that CONVEX
sation should not thrive in their atmosphere.
Still, were the art of conversation more gen.
orally understood. our ordinary dinner
parties would not be so heavy, to the great
advantage of our health. A dinner party to
be pleasant should not exceed six people, or,
al the very outside, eight. To assemble
more than this number is 10 ignore the hosp
liable idea that you ask your friends to dine
with you in order that you may sec them and
joy their conversation at their and your
ease, and teach may add his quota to the
general stock of information and Ideas.
With eight people 1t is difficult for the con
versation to be general, with more than eight
II is impossible, and IL the conversation is
not general you might as well be dining at
the table d'hote of an hotel. Even with the
lesser number, the host and hostess must
exercise some generalship to make the affair
go pleasantly. In assembling their friends
to dine with them, few people consider that
the style Of conversation OF party OF four
necessarily differs entirely from that of
party of eight. When only four people are
present they can see each others eyes,
catch the smallest infection Of voice, with
the varying impressions of face. The per-
sonal attraction Of the individuals is able TO
operate; each one feels its influence and the
party becomes as one. With eight people
this is impossible. II Is only by very care
ful guidance on the part OF the host that
con versation can be kept general, and 1t is
not every host who has this power. There
is necessarily a much greater strain In talk
ing to seven people than to three. To have
seven people listening to you, and seven
pairs of eyes watching you, makes 1t neces-
sary to put your utterances into rather
more formal shape than would be required
for the smaller audience. The nervous man
who rather fears the sound of his own voice
may be 4 most charming companion in the
smaller party, while in the larger be would
be merely silent oppression, and, though
many women talk well, few would like to
take NJ the talking stick with seven auditors.
For party Of eight, therefore, you must as
semble couversationaists above the average
or must be content to see It break up into a
series Of duets.
