NO CIRCUS. NO LIFE.

There are some disappOintments in
life too weighty to be borne. They in
woke the philosophy of Hamlet, and
finally lead to hasty shuttle from this
mortal coil. OF the solemnity OF this truth
two striking examples are furnished in
the recent dispatches. Two beautiful
damsels, residing in different parts of
the country, had set their hearts upon
going to the circus. They were disap-
pointed, and forthwith locked them
selves in the cold embrace of death. In
one case a Cincinnati girl employed a
revolver to place a weighty piece of
lead behind her burning brow, and in
the other case a Toledo maiden started
on her way to the vast unknown, hay
ing first filled herself with grim deter
mination and prussic acid. In both
cases the rash resolution to fly this
world of woe was formed when their
lovers refused to take the young ladies
to the circus.
The hardened man of the world who
has inspected the elephant from all
points of view, met the tiger in his ma
tive Jungle, and has made himself thor
ougly familiar with the menagerie, will
smile sardonically as he reads this brief
and touching chronicle of misplaced af-
lection and blighted hopes. Other men
who have been virtuous and are happy,
to whom circus lemonade is still an en-
ticing mystery, in whose breasts the
scent of the tanbark or the sawdust
awakens the boyish longing for eques-
trian distinction. will shed manly tears of
sympathy and regret when they peruse
these lines. Not for the suicides. Oh,
no! But for the lovers. who have never
known the joys of spiritual communion
with the frightening ticket seller" the
acrobat and the clown.
For indeed the man who was never
bound by the witchery of the circus is to
be pitied. He must be man who feels
no interest in antiquarian research, else
he would gladly listen to the circus
jokes and take an honest pride in de-

termining their prehistoric origin. He
has no taste for athletic exhibitions, and
his soul does not thrill with exultation
when the man with the iron jaw lifts
the pasteboard cannon marked $1,000
lbs" He has no eye for beauty I'M

steeds, have no attraction for him. And

he were, the trivial expenditure for pea
nuts and concert tickets would be as
nothing to him; he would locate his girl
on an upper seat, brace his knees
against the back of the man in frontand
be happy.
The circusless lovers of these young
ladies who committed suicide have no
such happiness before them. They are
already blighted beings. They will
wander through life, warding off the
ameliorating influence ofat the circus,
drifting into all sorts of wickedness,
until at last they plunge into the county
Jail or are elected to congress. Theirs
is sad and hopeless fate. The sad
story Of the two beautiful and tender
hearted creatures who died of disap-
pointment so grievous and touching
will teach them no wholesome lesson.

LETTERS OF ACCEPTANCE.

There is a great cutlery going up
throughout the country because CLEvE-
LAND and HARRISON do not write their
formal letters of acceptance. What is
the use of the cutlery? or, for that mat
ter, what necessity is there for the let
tiers? Both CLEVELAND and HARRI-
SON have been nominated, and when
waited upon by the proper committees,
both gratefully accepted the honors
that had been bestowed upon them.
They are as much candidates now as if
they had written forty letters of
acceptance. Their platforms have
been constructed for them, so there
can be no necessity for the
PRONUNCIATION of any special political
opinions. They are not expected to go
outside of the platforms adopted by their
respective parties in search of a new pO-
litical faith, and it is certain that neither
of them could define in more explicit
language the positions their parties oc-
cupy than has already been done by
the platform makers. The letter of ac-
ceptance is at best useless, and often
a dangerous, addendum to the campaign
literature, and MessrS. CLEVELAND
and HARRISON will render the country
a service if they unite in abolishing it.

TOWN TALK.

"Women are cruel, and there Is an
illustration of it." remarked a Dayton
avenue citizen the other day as he stood
on the corner of Pleasant avenue and
Third street and watched a couple Of
ladies drive up the Third street incline.
"There they are, lashing the whip OH to
that poor horse and making him go in
full trot up the steep hill, never for
moment thinking of the load he has to
draw or the difficult labor it is to go up
a steep ascent. See the horses veins
how they stand out like cords. and the
poor brute is gasping at every step he
makes. 1t is wonder that it never oc-

can save the horse great deal by oc-

Three little girls, from six to eight
years old, were playing IN front of
Portland avenue residence the other
day. One of them lived there; the
other two were visitors. The gentle

occurred to the little hostess that their
noise would disturb her father, and she
accordingly cautioned the others to

Is there closer natural bond between
twins or triplets than other children of
the same family who came into the
world at a single birth? Here is an
argument strongly in the affirmative,
and the story is well vouched for: Sew
eral years ago New Ulm mother gave
birth to triplets--two girls and boy.
The children lived to be eight years old
and ruddy-faced, flaxen-halred. blue
eyed little olive branches they were. On
their eighth birthday the mother gave
them a birthday party, at which the
usual over supply of sweetmeats was
served. That night the mother was
awakened by cry denoting pain from

ECHOES OF RHINE-LAND.

The German songs he held in leather bound
A dreamy child he was, with fawn-like eyes,
In which oft shone the light of pleased sur
prise.
When, shell to ear, he caught the sea waves
sound,
To see if ii would echo like the shell
And its imprisoned ballads freely tell
His golden head he pillowed on the book,
And, listening, heard he, scarce with won
dering look.
As ON that pure eve in the twilight dim,
The Turing Lorelei sang low to him.
The song then changed, and with clear
rythmic swell.
Now gaily chimed Schiller wedding bell;
The bell is muffied. sweeter echoes ring,
Fair Margaret chanting of Thule king.
Now came a song to praise the German vine,
The song of Luther honoring foaming wine;
Then, browning all, arose so clear and fine
The ringing. joyous chorus, Watch on
Rhise."
The lad delighted heard the soldiers song
The kaiser's army, shouting glad and
strong
As swelling higher, ah! what' there came a
throb,
The chorus, quivering, ended with sob.
The boy then started, Book, why aren't you
gladg
The kaiser's army, nurse, is sobbing sad"
The nurse no answer made. ''You weep"
he said.
She answered: "Hearken, child, in Father
land
o, in Rhineland soldiers sadly sobbing
stand
The king, my kaiser, DER the sea, is dead"

one of the llttle girls. and on going to

one of the little girls, and on going to
her bedside found her suffering in
tensely. Application of simple RENE
dies soon relieved the suffering child,
and she dropped off to sleep again.
But here comes the strange part
of the story. The other sister,
who was sleeping with the sick
child, was also awakened by the dis
turbance, and ascertaining that her sis
ter was sick, said to her mother: ''If
EVA dies am going to die, too; and so
will CARL" why do you talk so,
child?" asked the mother. Because l
have had such beautiful dream. l
dreamed the angels were here, and had
come to take us all to heaven with
Them" The little one was persuaded
to dispel all thoughts of her dream and
go to sleep. Little CARL, the male rep
resentative of the triune birth, who was
sleeping in an adjoining room with an
elder brother, was likewise aroused by
his sisters cries, and, learning the
cause, called in to his mother that when
EVA died he would die, too. Early in
the morning, when the mother arose and
visited the couch where her darlings lay,
she found them locked in each others
arms, peaceful smile on each little
face, but there was no life there. Their
spirits had gone home with the angels.
When little CARL was told that his
sisters were dead his grief was uncon-
trollable. Hysterical fits followed in
qnick succession, and the next morning,
just as the day dawned on earth, the
light of heaven broke upon his vision,
the triplets were united again, and for
ever. And there are people in New Ulm
to-day who will tell you of having at
tended funeral there when three little
bodies encased in one coffin were COM
mitted to the earth.
~
Talking about children, it has been
suggested that an improvement might
be made in the methods of our public
school instruction by reducing the sizes
of the primary classes. AS rule there
are too many small children in one
class. A child from six to ten years old
needs special attention to make proper
progress in school. Put forty or fifty of
them in one class. and the best teacher
in the world will fail to push them
along in their studies as should be done.
1t is simply physical, as well as
moral impossibility to do it. In the pri-
mary grades no class should exceed over
fifteen or twenty pupils.

And Hunt of Blue Earth county,
Conversing with old Barrett bout
The coming harvests bounty.
While j. j. Howe, the lumberman.
Came in for some attention,
George Potter claimed the eyes of all,
At the G. o. p. convention.
Herr Loewenstein, of some "aggount,"
Sat side by side with Brewer,
Conversing with ii. STEVENSON,
AS tall as any tower.

And Jennison's insane remarks
McGill's good friends embittered.
The platform covered everything,
That you or i could mention;
Twas real Cole day for Gordon E.,

Bob Stratton made ten-strike hit
In shutting out the proxies;
No flies on Bob, no matter what
The texture of his socks is.

The Banker had cinch on

There. in the chair, sat John L. Gibbs,
man Of strong ambition,
Who foolishly accepted once
A rather small position;
McKusick, with his half vote,
Was worked up TO tension;
The crowd called time on Conger
At the G. o. z. convention.
Bill Grimshaw, in committee-room,
Was heard to tell George seymour
That Billys vote on ballot one
Than Scheffers pile would be more.
The Traverse and the Grant contests
Created some discussion;

From what the others thought about
The delegates credentials.
just what ballot would bring forth
Kept all in deep suspension;
No prophet could foretell results
At the G. o. P. convention.
The friends of Andrew r. McGill
Felt happy and in clover.
But Billy's men said they d be sick
Before the fight was over.
They knew that Doodle would by some
Be met with no declen sion,
And reckoned not witho ut their host
At the G o. p. convention.
The balloting was soon commenced,
The secretary calling
The names of every county,
In tones both loud and drawing.
One could not tell the choice of men;
Twas kept in close detention.
In the corner of their little skulls,
AT the G. o. P. convention.
This scheme afforded ample play
For those whose palms were itchiTg;
And while the roll was being called,
There was some lively switching.
For leading i'll the bali0ting.
The banker had penchant;
At half past six he took the cake,
AT the G. o. p. convention.

And the winds and the waves agree;.
But star so bright nor wave SO light
Brings pleasure or peace to me;

On the rocks by the side of the seal

To the blessed long ago,
When the golden ground OF the buttereups
Was dashed with The dasies' snow;
And I'm thinking of all you said to me,
And il il were true or no,
While watch the tide as it runs away
From the beach so black and low.
If should die, my love, my sweet
Die of your smile forlorn.
Bury me here by the side of the sea,
Where all my JOY was bonn;
Where the waves shall make my lullaby,
And the winds from night to morn
Sh Ill say to the rocks, "He has gone to sleep
Where all his JOY was born.

The Craze for Government Office.


New York Times.
A recent estimate of the number of
persons affected, directly and indirectly,
by the hope or possession of Office, so as
to bias their political action, places it at
one-fifth of all the voters that go to our
polls. There is an average of five
aspirants to each office, and the same in
each party, or ten in all, which alone
gives us million and third of voters.
To them must be added brothers
and other biased and Interested
relatives. Adding those affected in
similar manner by state and municipal
offices, and we have an army of preju-
dice, and generally of injustice. The
demoralizing effect is enormous. Mad
ison declared that president who re-
moved an official for any other reason
than the public good exposed himself
to impeachment. The use of public
patronage was not quite an invention
of Jackson, however. Before him
