TIE NOMINEE.

The Republican Congressional Con-
vention met at Stockton on the 14th
and remained in session until Saturday
the 18th, when Hon. j. E. Turner was
made the nominee. Mr.. Turner, al
though not far advanced in years, has
demonstrated his entire ability for the
responsible trust which the people
have already, virtually reposed in him
and which choice the HERALD Will use
all hOnOTsbls means to confirm in the
November election.
Mr. Turner was born at Lockport,
Erie county, Pa, December 20, 1876.
He was educated, principally, at the
Adrian college of Michigan, where he
spent three years in hard earnest study.
In 1876 he entered the law Office of
Gen. Weaver, where he remained two
years and then located at Aver, Iowa,
where he practiced law and edited the
Rnggold Record. Two years later he
engaged in the merchantle business at
Ottumwa, Iowa, where he renamed
until his removal to Sheridan county,
Kansas in February, 1879. Here he
purchased a section OF land and laid
out the town of Kenneth and engaged
in the practice Of law and the real estate
business. He was elected in 1880 and
1882 to the Kansas legislature, where
lie did valuable work for his constituents
and made a host Of friends throughout
the State. Upon the organization OF

tary, which position he now occupies.

has four stones all within one
foot of the tee they would count nothing if
the opposite side had one stone within six
inches of the tee. Hence the reason that
at some ends only one point is made, at
others several.
The skip stations himself at the objective
end of the rink and directs each player how
to deliver his stone, to give it an ''out
turn" or an ''in turn" to form guard"
or enter port ian open space between
two stones). Each player is armed with a
broom, and if the stone shows signs OF
slowing up too quickly the ice is swept
clean in front of it to facilitate its progress.
1t is not allowable to sweep distractions into
the stones course. The moment stone
passes the tee, the opposite side does the
sweeping to help it to pass without the
scoring circle. The excitement which pre-
walls in a close-contested game is conta-
gious. The cries of the skip to ''swoop her
down." bring it all the way" ''get her
over the hog" "a good stone" and many
others which partake of the Scotch dialect
according to the articulation of the speaker,
are mostly Greek to one not a curler Should
a stone stop before reaching the hog score

extent their glass-like transparency, the
electric lights are plainly seen through them
at night. General Manager Van Slyke
has arranged to put globes of
glass of blood-red tint on the lamps
within the castle and over the
grand entrance. There are forty lamps
within the court walls and towers of the
palace, and it is anticipated that these
lights, shining through colOred globes, will
bathe the battlements and towers in a
blaze of red that will rival the most lurid
blush impaired by colored fire. The few
blocks of ice that had fallen from the walls
into the court below were removed yeSter-
day, and the chambers made ready for
their occupancy by the defending forces to-
morrow night, when one of the grandest
pyrotechnical exhibitions ever given in tins

combination of circumstances interfere
with the carrying out Of the program as it
has been arranged.

A NEW ARCTIC EXPEDITION.
A gentleman at the Ryan hotel while
viewing the sled among the relics, stated to
GLOBE reporter that a proposition was
now in contemplation by the Dominion and
British governments to despatch another
Arctic expedition on an entirely new plan
This was to despatch force of 200 men from
the remoteSt inhabited point that had com
municatiOn with the civilized world Here
large quantity of provisions were to be
stored. The force would be furnished with
cutters. and at stations ten or fifteen miles
apart four men would be left in charge and
arrangements made for their comfort by
providing them with warm huts and plenty
OF provisions. Constant communication
could be kept up between these posts, and
every movement of the advance guard would
be known. and il they desired reinforce
ment aid could be given them expeditiously
by relays of couriers from the posts. The
dog teams have been known to do fifty and
sixty miles day. and by fresh relays, tray
cling night and day, 100 miles
per diem could be covered. If
the advance guard was 1000 miles
from the depot communication could be had
within ten days. A novel sled is to be con-
structed for this expedition. The runners
consist of a steel frame filed with com
pressed paper, now used in the construction
of railroad wheels. These Sleds are to be
about seven feet in length and four in
width, and are to be covered over with a
light steel framework, IN shape resembling
an immense emigrant wagon. This frame
work is to be covered with card board of
clOSe-grain manufacture with vibrifying
substance wheel, will render it impervious
TO frost and almost to fire. The specific
gravity Of this card board is less than that
of most woods. This framework would not
weigh ten pounds. and would be a protec-
ton against the cold The main feature.
however, of the expedition is the formation
and communication between posts placed
at intervals along the route.

foot race yesterday afternoon on the palace
grounds, it being a ne-hundred-and-f fifty
yard dash for purse of So. They were
George Crooks, or Wakanogangan; Harry
Stone, or Pazahiyaye; David Otherday, or
Wiyuha, and Lanpee. 1t was best two in
three, and the most interested spectators
were the Indians themselves The two
first mentioned won a heat each, and the
third trial proving tie the race was ad-
jOurned until to-day, when the tie will be
run of.
A short time after this, and for the sport
that there was in it, a match was made be-
tween the Indian, Pete, who is supposed to
be the best runner in the band, and II. T..
Cameron, Winnipeg snowshOer. who won
the hurdle race on snowshOes few DAYS
ago. The race was 125 yards for $40, and
the Indian was beaten by long distance,
much to the amusement of the white by
ISLANDERS and the corresponding chagrin Of
the Indians.

several places there are small open spaces
between the blocks of ice, but the great
majority are crowded hard together, and it
would seem almost impossible for them to
fall. unless pushed over by some great
power. On the north and east sides the
walls of the court. turrets and the central
tower are as clear and transparent as when
first built. The ice is perfectly solid and
gives no evidence of having softened one
whit. The central tower lifts its cap
blocks ITO feet in the air and holds them
as steadily add firmly as it did at first, and
the turrets and bastions are all perfectly

shone.
The general appearance of the structure
has materially changed since it was opened
with such elaborate ceremonies. The clear
sea green tint that tinged the walls and
