Skill of the Oriental Jugglera.

The Jap is the most skilled of all ORR
entail jugglers. The wonderful tales re-
lated of the marvellous feats performed
oy the conjurers of India are mere fairy
stories. The Indian juggler does not
compare in skill with the professional
magicians of America or Europe. Their
tricks are such clumsy affairs that they
ian not be termed optical illusions. No
trained western performer would think
f giving them as they do. Crude as
hey are, however, they have furnished
most Of the ideas for the development Of
he wonderful stage illusions of the day.
The Indian juggler has neither skill nor
enterprise. He does not travel to other
lands, but remains at home and gives his
little performances in the streets and
squares. He knows nothing Of the science
Employed in latter-day legerdemain. He
ioes not understand what electricity or
compressed air means. For, you must
know, electricity and compressed air are
the modern magician's most important
tools. Some of our best illusions are
performed by the means of delicate
,rushable glass used to confine the COM
pressed air. The stories of the marvels
;he Indian performs have their origin in
;he prolific oriental imagination. -

The County Republican Committees Of the sew
eral counties will proceed 10 call County Conyen'
tions in their respective counties and elect dele.
gates and alternate delegates from each OF said
counties to the Territorial Convention above
designated.
Nis desired that sufficient notice Of such con-
ventions be given. The Territorial Republican
Committee respectfully recommends that the said
County Conventions be held early in September,
but such date should be fixed therefore as, after
giving due notice to the Republicans OF the coun.
ties, will be most convenient.
II is presumed that the custom heretofore pre-
vailing in the several counties OF the territory
whereby delegates to the Territorial convention
conventions which assemble 10 nominate county
officers will prevail during the present year.
To the end that all counties In the territory. re-
mote from near to the place OF holding the Ter
ritorial Convention, shall have opportunity to be
represented therein fairly and to prevent any ex-
trsneous interference with the deliberate desires
of the Republicans Of each county, the following
rules have been prescribed by former conventions
for the government Of the Republican Territorial
Conventions In the territory OF Montana:
l.-Delegates and alternate delegates shall be
elected in the future TO Territorial Conventions,
and In the event of the failure OF delegste TO at

the delegate whose alternate he is
2.-In the absence Of delegate and his alternate
o majority Of the delegation from that county

A Plan Of 0lxin9 Dinners.

There is prejudice against boarding.
houses in New York. Al all events it is
excee iingly Questionable to live in one
and the people who are not supplied by
caterers from choice, are from awe Of
the form Of fashion. Contracts TO serve
meals may be made with the big restau-
rants at rates far below the regular fig
ures on the bill of fare. But perhaps
the caterer is most highly appreciated
by people who entertain. Instead of
bulldozing the regulation Irish cook into
preparing a dinner for a number Of
guests note to the caterer settles it all.
There is then no hurry, no delay, no
wranglings with servants and the surety
of a good dinner well and promptly
served.
Half an hour before IL is time for the
guests to arrive, a wagon of the hearse
pattern, with a chimney through the
roof, drives up. Nimble assistants carry
in the wine from the refrigerator in one
end of the wagon, and the edibles from
the hot compartments in the other end.
Everything is here, from the flowers tc
the salt. The regular servants retire
and the caterer takes possession of the
kitchen, pantry and dining-room until
the guests have gone. Then the wagon
drives up again, and in twenty minutes
all traces of the dinner party, whether
10 six or 100 guests, have disappeared.
This plan of giving dinners grows more
and more popular every year.-New
York Letter.

placing them first) are the Herefords
and the hardy Devon. In both Of
these specialties there will be large
exhibits, and the competition among
the large number of breeders there
present will assuredly give some rare
bargains to such of our stock growers
as see fit to take advantage of this
universal opportunity. We are also
informed that the Polled-Angus and
Galloways will be represented from
the best breeding farms and that, in
short, there will be an opportunity to
purchase bulls of the finest strains
almost at the bidders own price. We
cannot too strongly impress upon our
readers interested in stock raising the
necessity of having some intelligent
representative at this fair for the pur-
pose of making purchases. The rapid
increase in blooded cattle farms
throughout the United States and
Canada, combined with the financial
depression prevailing in the east and
south, has forced The larger breeders
to throw upon the market at less than
reasonable prices the very flower o.
their herds. hence the opportunity
which will probably not be presented
again in years for our stock men TO
get bargains. In addition to the stock
exhibit, however. the Minnts sofa fair
presents universal attractions this
year. Its grounds and buildings are
now the most perfect and complete of
any state society in the country, and
the management has spared neither
labor nor pains to present list of at
fractions in the way of races, etc.,
that is unsurpassed. The best trot-
ting, pacing and running talent of the
country has been engaged and each
day will see tests of speed equal TO
that on any track in the country. A
programme of the races can be seen by
calling at the JOURNAL office. In
machinery of every character, in ex.
hibits Of agricultural products ad in
finitum, this fair is in position to COM
pete with the best efforts of older and
wealthier states of the Union. Alto
gether visit to the Minnesota state
fair should be made by every citizen
of the Yellowstone valley who can
spare the time and money. The
JOURNAL is well acquainted with the
management and can assure its read
ers that visitors from Montana willre-
eeive more than a cordial welcome by
their Minnesota neighbors, and such
assistance and counsel as may be val.
liable to them should any desire to be.
come purchasers of stock.

THE MINNESOTA STATE FAIR.

The JOURNAL desires. In the inter
est of our rapidly developing stock in
dustry, to call the attention of stock
growers in this vicinity to the impor-
tance to them of the Minnesota state
fair, to be held at Hamline, midway
between the cities of 81. Paul and
Minneapolis, for sixty days, commenc.
ing Monday, August 30th. We are in
a position to know that at that fair
will be the largest and most complete
show of thoroughbred cattle ever
brought together in one enclosure on
the continent of America; that the
best representatives of every breed
known to cattle men will there be
shown, and, at the close Of the exhi.
bition offered for sale, at private sale
at low figures and at public sale to the
highest bidder. In the line of Short
Horns there will be over one hundred
representatives from the herds Of such
celebrated breeders as J. J. Hill, Thos
Garfield, and other breeders of Min
nesota, Potts q Sons, of Jacksonville
ILL.,, Bohrland, of Iowa City, Iowa
and the even more widely known
Beau Park herd of Canada, celebrated
throughout the ranges of the west for
the strain Of great feeding cattle
known as the 'Cruikshank family

Horns of the purest blood has never
taken place in America, the Mime

made, the whole of the little animals

which the head was turned to the anode

current was again broken, when they
again fell into the wriggling motion, but
now less violently. Repeated expert

Do you know how this popular fallacy
about fish being brain food arose' MOI
It was in this way. All kinds OF fish de-
cay quickly after death, and, like all ami
NAL and vegetable matter in this stage,
throw off phosphorus. This was noticed
particularly in regard to fish, because, a.

comes putrescent. 1t was inferred from
this that the finny tribe was rich In phos.

contain less than most kinds Of meat, and
are little richer in this substance than
some vegetables-apples, for example,

81 have noticed" said an old fish
dealer, that the tastes for various
kinds of fish have undergone remark
able changes in the past few years.
Spanish mackerel, that was once an ex-
pensiye luxury, and only to be found
at the best restaurants or on the tables
Of wealthy epicures, can now be had in
any eating house at prices very little
higher than those paid for ordinary
mackerel, and many, perhaps, prefer
the ordinary kind Halibut, that used
Workers, has certainly sunk into a sec.
ond or third place. l can not very
readily account for this, because the
halibut, cooked in any of the recognized
ways, is finely favored fish.
1.-THE consumption of Goldfish has in
creased enormously. 1t may be said to
have taken the place once occupied by
halibut; and, indeed, l think it is bet
ter favored fish. Boiled, or fried in
steaks, it is a decided delicacy, and is
plentiful enough to be always procur-
able at reasonable price. Pan fish are,
for the most part, of little value now.
Porgies have lost ground considerably,
though they are very good eating They
are becoming scarce in New York wa
tiers too.
"Singularly enough, the coarser fish
have gained somewhat in favor. The
sturgeon, which formerly was consid-
cred to be hardly fit food for white
man, is now frequently seen on the
orally smoEeG, which in a meas
ure destroys its oily flavor, but
it is also eaten fresh. Some
of the poorer people living far up the
Hudson smoke it and make it staple
food. They call it North River beef.
have been told that sturgeon is so
scarce in England that when one Is
caught it is sent to the lord Lieutenant
of the county. Founders, too, have IN.
creased largely in popularity, and the
markets are usually well supplied with
them. They are sold at low prices.
Formerly the expression, No better
than q fried founder was the common
pronunciamento against poor fish,
but now it is we'll understood that If a
founder is soaked in vinegar for night
it becomes firm, losses its muddy taste,
and makes fairly good meal.
''Eels are dropping out of public
favor rapidly, and brook trout and sal
mon have become highly popular

The ConstItutionaIIy Tired.


The subject of loafng is prolific one
If anv person is inclined to treat it In
all OF it's bearings, but the Saunterer has
only space at this time to refer to the
number of haunts that the listless and
tale have. They will invade the busiest
places, and occupy the time of all who
are good natured enough to listen to
their wretched dribble. They are pre-
pared to criticise everybody and every
thing about them, and though they
have been notorious failuressin all they
have undertaken, owing to their indo-
lence, they are always ready to say how
much better. they could do the work
which really industrious people are per-
forming to the best of their ability.
The Saunterer has often noticed that
apothecary shops are favorite lounglng-
places for the .constitutionally tired,
and he has wondered if the fatal mis-
takes that druggists some times make
are not the result of an attention dis
tracted by the remarks of some hanger
on. who has nothing to do but retail the
senseless gossip of the hour.
