CHoKED SNYDER OFF.
Senator Davis the Star of the
Evening.

The Peoples theater was crowded
with Republicans last evening to hear
addresses from Senator Davis and Capt.
Snider. Several clubs paraded the
principal thoroughfares of the city
prior to the meeting, displaying flaming
transparencieS, colored mOtoes and a
model Tippecanoe cabin, with coon
perched on the top. Those who were
fortunate enough to secure seats in the
theater were solely of the Republican
persuasion, which accounted for the
unanimty and enthusiasm manifested.
There was a fair sprinkling of ladies
present. A quartette of singers put
every one in good humor by their conf
cal election songs, the refrain of one
being.
Gilman was left at the convention,
Good bye, Charley, good bye;
And is now gnawing the bone of conten-
ton,
Good bye, Charley, good bye.
Gov. McGill presided, and received a
hearty welcome on taking the chair.
He told the people it was not his inten-
ton to make speech, but simply to in
troduce the speakers announced to adj
dress them. Il presume we are all
agreed" he continued. that in the
history of our government there has
never been time-there has never
been acampaign-fraught with greater
interests to the American people than
the present. '[Applause.l believe, as
YOU do. that in the issues over which
we are contending, the Republican
party is right and the Dem ocratic party
wrong. We have issues which will be
presented tonight to you nd amongst
them. and, perhaps. that one which
overshadows all others and will, until it
has been settled either possibly by the
BALLOT OR IN BLOOD,
is the right of every American citizen
to cast his vote, and to have that vote
counted as cast. Cheers. Now, on
this particular question | do not think
that we shall attain success according
to the principles which you and be-
lieve. from the Democratic party, and
for that, amongst other reasons. we are
opposing the Democratic candidate for
congress, our esteemed fellOw-citiZen,
Hon. Edmund Rice" Cheers.
Gov. McGill then introduced Capt.
Snider, who proceeded to turn off his
campaign speech, dealing largely with
1.-The ancient history of both political
parties. Capt. Snider's idea why DEM
ocratS supported revision OF the tariff
was as unique as it is foolish. The
Southern states wanted free trade be-
cause they could get the next cheapest
labor to that of absolute slavery. Mr..
Snider was proceeding in his rambling,
hesitating style. displaying peculiar
want of information on the true merits
of the tariff question, whena voice from
the gallery called for Davis" This
thoroughly discounted the speaker,
and he quickly dropped the free trade
bugaboo. saying that he would yield the
floor as requested.
Senator Davis stated that he had just
returned from journey of 200 miles,
but during the whole of his address oc-
cupying an hour and a Quarter-he spoke
with considerable eloquence and did
not display the slightest signs of weari-
ness. During his speech he said: '.The
Republicans in Ramsey county have
nominated ali excellent ticket, and
hope it will receive your undivided
support. SO in regard to the state off,

Thomas III. Garfield in the Fight
to STAY.

For some days rumors have been
freely circulated in political circles that
Thomas II. Caulfield, the Reform"
Democratic candidate for sheriff, had
withdrawn from the ticket. That Mr..
Caulfield is still in the fight, however,
is shown by the following letter:

WANTED TO DANCE.
Orchestral Preferred to Tariff
Chin Music.


The Normanna reading society and
Druid secret society united in giving a
grand ball at Market hall last evening"
1t was intended to have few short
political speeches before the dancing
commenced, and Attorney G. J. Lomen,
William Pitt Murray. and E. H. Ozmun
were selected as speakers of the even
ing. MIR. Lomen assembled the platform
and began to speak, but he soon found
that it was impossible to hold the at
tention of the audience, who were more
anxious to begin dancing than to hear
the tariff discussed. The speaker vain
ly tried to make himself heard, and
finally announced that partners might
be taken for the next Quadrille, One Or
two speeches were made in the bar
room in the Scandinavian tongue.
There were about 800 people present.
Seibert's orchestra furnished the music.

Opposed to Cha ge of Grade.

At the meeting of the board of public

cided to request the city council to an
null the or er changing the grade and
widening Jackson street, between Belle
vue and Valley streets, for the reason
that majority of the property owners
interested are opposed to the improve

before the board, and while many of
them favor some changes, they are un-
able to agree upon grade.

The Feminine Chinese Feet.

The feet Of Chinese women are made small
lin a very simple manner. The process begins
at the age Of five or six years. The foot is
tightly bound, SO that the circulation of
blood ceases and the toes are crushed to-
gether The bandaged foot is inserted in a
short, narrow pointed shoe, in the heels of
which block of wood is placed, so that the
girl appears to be standing on her toes.
Sometimes bandages ara wound around over
the shoe. The foot of course grows smaller,
but, in consequence of the shrinking of the
skin, seems round and plump. Stockings are
not worn. If everything goes all right the
foot assumes the desired form in two or three
years, being gradually shriveled up. The
poor girls often have to undergo great pain
Sometimes the skin and flesh burst under the
terrible pressure, and occasionally incurable
injuries result. 1t is dangerous to hasten the
process, and especially SO when at the begin
ming of the operations the girls are beyond
the usual age. Not infrequently the attempt
lis made with fifteen or sixteen year old
daughters In such cases the process is diff
cult, for the foot has almost reached its full
growth, and the pain is unbearable.
/ The practice of reforming the feet prevails
only among the upper classes and those VINO
affect the manners and customs of their su-
periors in rank. Among the lower classes,
where the deformity would unfit girl for
necessary labor, the feet are allowed to grow
naturally. This establishes sort of caste
sign. The father Of a tiny footed maiden will
not permit her to marry man whose mother
or sisters have not artifcially diminutive
feet. The written laws of the land do not
refer to this custom in any way; it would be
much as II American legislation should deal

Growing Frogs for Food.

There Is good deal more sense in frog
farming scheme than you will find in
lots of these hare Drained patents which are
advertised extensively. Of course, every one
smiles at the suggestion of growing frogs for
food, and Col Bill Waddingham came in for
his share of censure when he innocently pro
posed to utilize some Of the useless swamps
of southern Illinois close to st. Louis, where
a good demand for frogs at fancy prices al
ways offered encouragement to shippers.
The improved frog is fat, plump and lus-
clous, most delicious morsel that melts in
the mouth, while the swamp croaker is a long
drawn out creature that has more spring
than fat to his underpinning. The breeds are
as different and wide apart as the Texas long
horn and the Hereford shorthorn.
Any man who has pond on his farm can
try the experiment Of raising his own frogs.
First, let him buy, say six pairs of fine New
Jersey breeders and dump them into the
water. With these for starter you may select
a quantity Of domestic bactracean and then
you will have the nucleus for a fortune
Don't interfere with your water investment
for year any more than to keep your grow
ing stock well supplied with food. They re-
quire an abundance, but as they are not very
dainty in their taste, the expense will be
light For young farm two barrels day
of hotel table scraps will keep the frogs in
splendid shape, SO that at the end of twelve
months you can begin marketing all you can
fish out at the same price as spring chickens.
Give me the time and facilities and l will
wager that at the end Of two years l will be
living on an income Of 5000, and my frogs
will pay all expenses. st. Louis has no good
frogs, as local epicures depend on the labors
of farmers lads, who go fishing with shot
gun. In midwinter. when the ground is
frozen hard, we have to bring our frogs from
establishments in New Jersey.-Globe-D Demo

RED MEDICINE IN THE NORTH.
How the Sioux Magfcians Prepare Their
SpeIIs-Herbs and Images.

How the Sioux Magicians Prepare Their
SpeIls-Herbs and Images.
Aa the medicine bag contains the red doc
+or,s stock in trade, he guards it with jealous
care 1t is kept away from the prying eyes
and itching fingers Of the whites, and the
medicine man would as soon lose his life as
to have the contents of his pouch inspected
These bags are made of the skin of some wild
animal, and are variously ornamented with
fringe and now and then with beads We
did not get chance to look into one during
the prevalence of the dog feast, but not long
afterward number Of Christianized medi-
cine men reached the post and turned their
pouches over to the missionary who had con-
verted them.
A complete catalogue of the contents Of a
single medicine bag would excite the readers
wonder and provoke a smile. When the dis
icarded ones had been turned over on the
occasion just referred to, went through the
first that came in my way. This particular
medicine chest had once been the skin Of
some animal in embryotic state-I should
say young wolf-and had been taken off in
a manner which caused it to retain its nat
iural shape. / found that each article had
been carefully incased in a covering of
birch bark The wrapper was marked with
certain totemic symbols which went to in
lstruct the medicine man as to the contents Of
the package. The assembled medicines
would have formed an unique collection, and
ia general laugh went around as the Indians
materia medica stood displayed.
There were dried herbs in quantity, leaves,
ibarks, roots, and stems. Here claw, there
a tooth, yonder an ear. One package con-
tanned beak and feather, another human
nail Our search brought to light small
images Of wood carefully wrapped and
labeled. These were the totems that preside
over the use and effects of the medicines, and
without their presence in the pouches the
skill Of the Indian doctors would avail moth
ing. The images are Of rough workmanship,
but they answer the purpose for which they
were designed as well as if they came from
the hands of the skillful carver. We found
in the bag we examined representations Of
the sun and moon, and some odd pieces of
wood carving supposed to represent the
human figure.
The medicine Of one tribe differs from that
of another. The shapes of the healing pouches
are different. No Indian can aspire to the
position of healer Of the sick unless he isphy-
sically without a blemish, though some
tribes tolerate MANNED medicine men. This
would indicate that among some nations men
ltal characteristics go further than physical
ones in the choosing Of doctors. The initia-
ton into the fraternity of medicine men diff
fers, as do the schools they profess to prac-
tice In the far north the candidate is
compelled to devour alive a young dog while
the assembled crowd dance around him. In
other instances physical torture can lift one
ito the dignifed position of medicine man, and
some enthusiastic aspirants have been known
to endure excruciating pain for days in sue
lcession-Drake's Travellers Magazine.
