THE SEARCH FOR A NAME.

The search for name continues. Con-
gresham Springer is said to have de-
cided in favor of "Winona" Tor the south
half OF the territory, while Dakota
will be given to those in the north.
Pembna and Lincoln are also men-
toned in this connection. In the. selec-
lion Of names there is a growing feeling
in favor OF something that will com.
pletely overturn all previous ideas OF
Dakota as cold country. Many resi-
dents feel and claim that exaggerated re-
ports OF storms and billiards have
caused the territory thousands of dollars
damage, and they want names which
will simply remind the public OF the
immensely and wealth and health OF the
new States. From Washington it
is reported that the Dakota bills
will be taken up and passed at once after
the appropriation bills have been dis
posed OF and by the present Congress
would not be altogether surprising, al
though the people seem scarcely to ex-
pect it. The Southean half OF the Terri
tory has population sufficient to entitIe
it to two Congressman, and action for
such legislation is already on foot.

that it is bad enough when doctors
disagree, it is worse when courts
disagree. Under the decision Of a
Kansas circuit court a man named
Jesse Mcfarland is IN prison for
keeping a concubine. Under a de
cision Of the Supreme Court of the
same state the woman is his lawful
wife. When he comes out of pris-
on at the end of his term he will
be IN fix. Under the ruling OF the
circuit court he caDnct livewitb bis

Supreme Court he must support
her. He cannot be divorced be-
canse the circuit court says he is
not married, and he cannot marry
another woman because the Su.
preme Court says he is already
married. Unless the two courts
hold a caucus and agree upon a
plan of campaign the most sensible
thing for Mcfarland to DO is to re-
fuse to be turned out of the peni-

Chief of Police Lee has detailed an off,
Ger specially to look after the waste of
water which is going on in different parts
of the city, and an order has also been
issued to all of the officers on the force to
arrest any person violating the ordinance
in regard TO the use of water In spite of
the fact that the city pumps are furnishing
larger supply of water than ever before,
complaints of shortage and low pressure
are coming in continually. Many people
leave their hydrants running all night to
irrigate their lawns, and others use large
quantities of water for irrigation purposes
at hours forbidden by law. 1t is only law
full to use water for this purpose between
the hours Of 5 and A. N. and and p NJ
The necessities of the city demand that
the ordinance shall be enforced, and per-
sons violating it hereafter viii be punished
TO the full extent of the law.

During the past three weeks Chief Lee

eyes scanned him closely. They were not

in place of the first. The last pair of eyes
needed but one glance, for the wicket was
shut with bang and the door remained
closed. The disappointed officer had
nothing to do but to go and report his fail

On Tuesday night the Chief tried another
game. He sent three genuine "hoosiers"
up to the game and had some officers in
citizens clothes following. The "hoosiers"
managed to get in, but the game closed the
instant they crossed the threshold, and
they gain no information of any service
There were only three persons in the room

Eintracht Rundes.Fest.

The second grand Eintracht Bundes-Fest
will be celebrated in this city on August
18th. 26th and 9th, and the Sacramento
Verein Eintracht is making extensive
preparations to make this festival grand
success. The "Eintracht Bund" is union
of the differ nt Eintracht Societies" on
the Pacific coast, and was formed only
few years ago. The mother society was
the San Francisco Verein Eintracht, now
numbering between 800 and 900 members
Although there were quite number of sing
ing, gymnastic, dramatic and benevolent
societies and rife clubs in San Francisco,
yet they were separated, and it was great
strain on the purse of a person who wished
TO belong to one or all the different socie-
ties mentioned. About fifteen years ago,
d number of Germans, sporting citizens of
San Francisco, made the right step in the
right direction, by organizing a society that
offered all the aforesaid advantages COM
bined. This proved grand success, and
the society grew rapidly in numbers, and
became SO popular that it soon became the
largest German-speakings society on the Pa
cific coast, with but one exception (the
German Benevolent Association in San
Francisco, which has about 1000 members).
The new society was called the San Fran.
cisco Verein Eintracht." To give
Inc TIRul vi lu6 worn
"Eintracht" is quite difficult, but the
meaning is about the same as union and
harmony" The advantages offered by the
San Francisco Verein Eintracht are mani
fold, while the admission fees and dues are
very small in comparison. By paying a
monthly due of 81, member was entitled
to weekly benefit of $40 in case of sick
ness. and at the same time he had the priv
ilege of joining the singing, gymnastic,
dramatic and rife sections without extra
charge. The additional payment of ST per
month secures a member life insurance
of 1876, payable at death to the family or
lawful heirs.
The festivals given by the society were
always largely attended and proved fnan-
cial successes, especially the masquerade
balls of the society were the most popular
in San Francisco, and are generally at
tended by from 5000 to 10000 persons.
The society soon grew rich, and now pos
sesses fine lot and commodious hall on
Post street, between Stockton and Powell,
opposite the Union Square. The success
achieved by the San Francisco Verein
Eintracht induced the German-speaking
citizens of other cities to follow this exam
pie, and Eintracht societies sprang up in
the cities of Oakland, Stockton, Sacra-
mento and Portland Oregon.
