WITH a temperature above freezing under
the influence of the gentle chinook, resi-
dents here can regard with co,nmiseration
for the unhappy Dakotans the announce
ment that another blizzard has broken
loose there. The inhabitants barely have
a breathing spell after one fearful exper-
fence ere the thermometer suddenly de-
sends to sixty below with a gale blowing
forty miles an hour. We are not out of
the woods here by any means, but are
happily spared such infections as make
life a burden in the adjoining Territory.

A SINGULAR case OF in6delity is reported
from St. Paul. A Pennsylvania named
John Wilkins, lived for fifteen years con-
tented with one wife. when he went to St.
Paul, and there became infected with a
matrimonial mania that resulted in his
marryingo fur more women. 1t has not
been generally suspected hitherto that the
atmosphere of the Twin Cities had such a
%polygamous affect. The only notable
instance OF infidelity previously reported
from that region has been Ignatius Don
neliy's sacriIege concerning Shakespeare,
and a Scotch Professor has relieved all
doubt On thai subject by characterizine
the c%riptogram as miserable drivel and an
arithmetical puzzle that would be Missed

SECURE k HOME IN THE LAND Of Fl9HRs
DlNSMOREl

One of the growing towns of the
South, is situated on both sides of
Savan ah, Florida s. Western
Railroad, just twelve miles from
jacksonville, Fla. 1t is high, dry
and level, and a successful horti-
cultural and truck-growing section
of the State. Dinsmore can be
easily reached from Jacksonville by
railroad, by water route, or by an
hour and a half drive over an excel
lent plank and shell road.
DinsmOre is not one of the iSola-
ted spots that is only laid out on
paper, but a thriving prosperous
town that recommends itself to
capitalist and laborer, to fathers
and wives who are vigilant over
their own interests and the welfare
of their children, to those who are
seeking homes and those who have
capital to invest for speculation.
The land can be obtained at re-
markably low figures and on terms
suitable to the condition of every
purchaser. At the present low
figures poor man can make regu-
lar payments on a valuable home
with less than the aggregate of
unnecessary expense or money act
ually thrown away. 1t is an in
vestment that one cannot regret
and through which you will realize
many times the amount invested.
The prices are for Front Business
Lots one acre, s65, $50, S35. Sec
ond choice, S25 SIS. Third choice
SIS. Fourth choice $40. Fifth
choice, SIS. 1t must be remember
ed that these are acre lots.
We also have vegetable and
truck farms laid out adj cent to
Dinsmore, containing from FIVE to
sixteen acres each, which we offer
for the benefit of those who wish to
farm at SIS acre.
Our terms are one fourth cash
and balance in one, two and three
years.
The chain Of title will beEshort
and strong. 1t is from the State of
Florida to the Railroad and from
the Railroad to you.
d Truck farming around Dlnsmore
would be at the door of two Of the
greatest markets in the South. Let
every poor man if with but one
dollar, commence to buy lot in
Dinsmore. The fare from Jackson,
vile and return is only twenty-five
cents. Think of it. There are
eight passenger trains per day ami
the round trip will only cost TWEEN
ty-fve cents. Trout creek, large
stream passes right through the
vicinity, thus affording pure fresh
water for stock, perfect drainage
and abundance of fish.
TAKE WARNING NOW, and
do not let this grand opportunity
slip you. 1t is the very best chance
you will have TO secure good
piece of valuable property and such
startling prices.
The merchants in Dinsmore are
enjoying a good trade and the
town is rapidly growing. Saw
mills are convenient for securing
timber to build, and laborers who
desire work can get from a dollar
and half to two dollars per day

AN UNUSUAL CLUB OFFER.-The
demand for thorough discussions of
both sides of the living questions of
the day has induced US to procure for
subscribers to THE HERALD combi-
nation rate with the Forum the ablest
American review, by which they may
secure the HERALD practically free.
The price of the HERALD is 81 year,
and the Forum So. For limited
time we will receive subscriptions to
both for SIS a year. The Forum is the
New York monthly review in which
the most distinguished writers on
both sides ofevery question to discuss

and mould public opinion; and dur

social, economic, literary and religi-
GUS, that comes up is treated by, the
highest authorities. This offer is
made only for few months. e
THE FORUM FOR SEPTEMBER
Lord Lorne publishes in the Septem-
Der number of the Forum part of a
letter from "an eminent American !"
and his reply thereto. So full of adj
miration for our methods of Govern
ment in this reply the somewhat nov
ell spectacle is presented of the Queen
of England's son-in-law defending
popular government against the criti-
cisms of an American citizen. Rev.
T. T. Munger, perhaps the most
prominent Congregationalist clergy
man in New England, points out the
benefits that religion has gained from
science. Bishop Huntington, of Gen.
trail New York, in an essay on Caus.
es of Social Discomfort" analyses the
unrestful tendencies of American life
and suggests corrective influences that
lie outside the vision of the politi-
clans and professional reformers. Mr..
Atkinson shows by tables and dia.
grams what is spent for food, clothing
and shelter by the different classes OF
wage-workers, the purchasing power
of wages since 1860, and the decline
since that time of the earning power
of capital. These specific calculations
are opportune when there is SO much
discussion of wages dprOpOs of the
tariff agitation. The political article
of the number is a review of the Re.
publican National platform by Sena.

THE GREAT STORMS AND FLOODS.

The storms and floods last week
were the most terrible and vide.
spread known for years. The storm
struck the Gulf States Sunday a
week, 10Th ; Monday Louisiana was
drenched, passing into Mississippi,
and strnck Kentucky on Tuesday.
Tuesday night and Wednesday it
spent its fury through West Virgin
ia, Virginia and Maryland and Penn
sylvania, and passed off the coast of
Maine. 1t was over 500 miles wide,
and travelled so miles an hour or 600
miles day.
The rainfall accompanying the cy.
clone was unusually heavy. At
Memphis it was 4:54 inches in TWEEN.
ty-four hours; Mobile, 3.44; Norfolk,
3.26; Louisville, 2.54; Philadelphia,
FOG New York, 500: and Boston,
$40. The greatest velocity of the
wind at Philadelphia was 80 miles
an hour: New York, %: Baltimore,
"a: Boston, 40: Eastport, Me-, IS !:
and Portland, 80.
The damage everywhere was great,
and many lives we're lost on land
and water. Two people were killed
in Virginia, Ii in Maryland, IN Kent
County, and damage done to build
ings, vessels, crops, fruit, fences,
bridges, ETC., in all parts of the coun-
try, amounting to millions of dollars.
A cyclone and water-spout passed
over the country about Wilmington,
Del, Aug. 81, doing 100000 dam
age to property, killing five PEOPLE
and wounding many more. Wheel
ing suffered terribly in the damage
to railroads and bridges. For day
there was no out side communica-
ton, the railroads we're torn up and
trains stopped. The towns and
cities and the country along rivers
suffered the most.

LAWYARs' WILLS.

English lawyers. when dining to-
getler, a hundred years ago, used to
toast The schoolmasters," who then
wrote wills and, by their ignorance,
gave the profession much remnnera-
I tive business. In this country, the fol-
lowing toast used to be a fayorite at
dinners OF the bar: ITO the lawyers
best friend-the man who makes his
own will.D
Both the letter and the spirit of
this toast have been illustrated BY
the litigation which has risen over
the wills of lawyers, made I,y them
selves,
Lord ST. Leonidas, one of the
most distinguished OF the Lord
Cbancellors of England of the pres.
ent century, left will drawn up by
himself which caused long and cost.
ly litigation.
Sir Joseph Jekyll, an excellent
lawyer, left his fortune to pay ma.
tional debt, and the court set it
aside on the ground OF imbecility.
"Sir Joseph" said Lord Mansfield,
"might as we'll have attempted to
stop the middle arch of Blackfriers'
bridge with his full.bottomed wig"
Lord Mansfield's will was written
by himself on half sheet OF paper,
and not in the usual form; but it
proved valid for the disposal of pro-
perty to the amount of two and a
half million pounds sterling.
Lord Stowell was eminent as
judge, but near" as man. In Or
der to save the legacy duty, he dur
ing his lifetime, made over to his
son William the twenty thousand
pounds intended for him. But his
son, who died first, made will,
leaving the amount to bis father.
His LoI dship bequeathed it to Lady
Sidmouth, and after his death the
legacy was contested.
There are many instances extant
of great lawyers laundering in the
making of their own wills, and there
is in one case where lawyer pur-
posely left his will obscure. Ser
jeant Manard, an eminent black-let.
ter lawyer, had perplexed himself
over some very fine points of law.
He therefore left will worded in
such terms as would cause litigation
to arise on the points oflaw he wish.
ed the court to settle.
