We are requested, in behalf of the Of
Ulcers OF the insane asylum, to return the
thanks of the sane and the insane TIC
the Mother Goose musical party, who
gave to the inmates of that institution
an evening of delightful recreation.
The members of the Mother Goose party
also request us TO express their thanks
to the asylum management for the in
vitatlon to appear IN their favorite role
and for the charming manner in which
they were entertained last evening. This
episode closed the career OF the Goose
family and its termination was a happy
one all around.
Mayor Magee, of Sioux City, who has
made frequent visits to Yankton in his
official capacity, has been removed from
the government position of inspector of
Indian supplies, and has been succeeded
by Daniel Campbell, of Dubuque. Mr..
Campbell was an elector on the demo.
cratic ticket IN Iowa, and would have
assisted in the process OF making q
president of his benefactor had the PEG.
pie endorsed him. The reward business
is getting down pretty thin when a
statesman of such oalibre is given SO
meagre a compensation for his sacrifices.
We hope Mr.. Magee may not be deferred
from making an occasional visit to Yank-
ton by the frowns of political fortune.
Our people will like him as well, even
though he has proved to be an offensive
partisan.

awslr TO THE ASYLUM

BY the Mother Goose Party Which was
Greatly Enjoyed by the sane and the
Insane.
Upon an invitation extended by Sup.
erintendent Cravens, of the hospital for
the insane, to the Mother Goose family,
for a visit to the hospital last night, the
conyeyances began the work of picking
the people up at about seven O'Clock
last evening, and AS q large number of
spring wagons, cutters, ETC., had been
provided, by eight o'clock all the visitors
were on the way to the scene of the
merry making. The moon was only
about half full, and consequently the
evening was not as light IS some Da-
kota evenings, but it was not dark
enough to conceal the alarmed looks OF
the geese, as they approached the
asylum. Neither was it cold, and with
all these happy combinations, the ride
was not at all unpleasant. Arrived at
their destination the guests were taken
in charge by DIR. Cravens and his assis.
tants, and escorted to the dressing
rooms, from whence, after q due
amount OF primping and fixing, they
proceeded to the assembly room, or
chapel, where the patients OF the asylum,
were waiting to distinguish, if possible,
the difference between themselves and
their visitors. The goose lanciers was
danced, much to the enjoyment of the
audience, and then, to the music of
Fixes orchestra, q couple of hours were
tripped away. During the evening the
patients were allowed to participate and
they seemed to enjoy the affair hugely.
1t was surmised some days ago by the
knowing ones that the party would not
get away without some one of them be-
ing the victim of q joke, and these sur
misses proved to be correct, for during
one of the auadrllles DR.. Craveps es-
corted a lady up to our friend, Ed.
Bruce, with q request that he dance
with her. Bruce agreed and the couple
took their place in the dance. Now the
lady was the head cook, but Bruce did
not know it. He supposed that she was
one Of the delusionary kind, and
he conducted his share of the Jon
yersatlon in accordance with that view.
He was soon the observed of all observ-
ers, and the observations were mixed up
with no small amount of laugh at his
expense. LII we could give the CONVERSE
tion in full it might prove interesting,
but Bruce has forgotten what was said.
At about IL o'clock an elegant lunch
was served, and the party broke up and
returned; to the city, heartily wishing
that they might, one and all, be counted
among the expected for another visit to
the hospital.

Vermillion Republican: The Gayville
station, just across the line in Yankton
county, is keeping mp its reputation as
a stock and grain shipping point. The

Standardization. A. M. Bowdle, of
Mitchell, was in Scotland a couple of
days last week, and improved the time
by buying several quarter sections of
land northwest of Scotland. Mr. Bowdle
is presumed. to be interested in the large
purchases of land which have been made
in this section during the winter and
leads many to believe that these invest
meets indicate the early extension of the
Milwaukee railroad in a northwesterly
direction from Scotland. Whether the
road is built or not the investment is a
good and profitable one.

AT HEAVENS GATE.
An Idaho Newspaper Man Fails t.
Stand the Crucial Test.

The following, which is doubtless
a personal Renaissance of Brother
Boyakin's, is borrowed from the Idaho
Democrat:
An Idaho newspaper man died and
soon found himself at heavens portals,
undergoing rigid examination at the
hands of St. Peter. The hot cross
questioning he was subjected to
drew out in detail all of the struggles
and trials and joys and sorrows Incl
dent to the conduct of country pa
per; how he had manfully wrestled
with cranks, politicians, spring poets
and delinquent subscribers, without
shedding blood; the flattering notices
he had given newly-wedded couples,
and words of welcome extended to the
recently arrived infant; the first class
credentials in the shape of good send
offs given to those who died, and all
that sort of thing, and how many
years of his earthly existence he had
been compelled to eat the tons of car
rots taken on subscription. The
hoary gate keeper had heard the same
story many a time and oft before;
but he listened attentively, blotted
out from the big book many little ir-
reg ularities that had been charged up,
and with a face beaming at the
thought Of another souls safe pas
sage through the Great White Gate
to realms of eternal bliss beyond, he
waived his hand in token to pass in.
The trembling applicant went IN and
started up the Golden Stairs to the
music of the celestial orchestra, but
had gone but a dozen steps when a
command to halt smote his ears in
thunder tones. Turning on the in
slant, he was beckoned back. "There
was one question forgot to ask YOU y
resumed St. Peter; "and more appli-
cants have failed on that one than all
else. Did you ever, while on earth,
carry your wife's letters in the dead
Letter Office (your inside coat pocket
until worn past reading, then burn
them, and when taken to task about
them cruelty deceive her by thowing
the cause of their non-arrival upon
the honest postmaster?" 1t was g

guilt, and he uttered the last despair
ing wall of lost soul. cha. | sus-
pected as much!" calculated old St.
Peter; and waxing wroth he seized
the rejected by the scruf of the neck
and hurled him shrieking over the
ramparts. And he went down, down,
down, through thick smoke and dark
ness, until a dim light fickered in
the gloom and the silence was broken
with: "Hi, there, old man! what are
you doing there sprawling on the
floor with your head damned in be-
tween the table legs? Crawl back
into bed or III scour the side OF the
house with youw 1t was his wife
talking. He had been dreaming and
tumbled out of bed.
