Caroline Herach,l.

The life of Caroline Hersche', one would
imagine. was anything but favorable to long
lasting. insufficient sleep. irregular and
hasty meals. long fasts excessive toll, both
bodily and mental, were the conditions of
her life-at least during the fifteen years she
was her brothers h0usekeeper and astro-
nOmical assistant. A lady who devoted her
sell TO hard work. one of the necessities of
which was that she had to spend the whole
OF every starry night, covered with dew or
boar frost, on grass plat in the garden,
would not. one would think, be likely to
make old bones. At the age of SO, however,
according to her nephew's account, she
skipped, up two fights OF stairs and ran
about like girl of 20. She died at the age
of 9S.-All the Year Round.

DEMouRAT1C CONVENTION.

n mass convention of the Democrats
of Jerauld county. was held in the
Court House on Saturday last. What
the convention lacked in numbers was
made up in enthusiasm. A full ticket
was nominated. They went outside
of party lines in but three instances.
AS was expected, the Democrats on the
Independent ticket were taken into the
fold i'll spite Of the loud talk to the
contrary during the past few weeks.
The prominent Democratic members
of the Independent party were on hand
to help engineer that portion OF the
program. This is no surprise to TIE
people who are net SO blind that they
do not wish to see. 1t is but another
proof OF the statement long since
'nadn=that tbs Independent meves
ment was inspired by Democrats, and
was aided and abetted by so-called Re-
publicans, who, in the main, could
never expecta nomination by their own
party.
: How long this alliance will hold to-
gether remain to be seep. Itmay have
been very shrewd movement, TO
place Capt. Vrooman IN nomination
for Clerk of Courts. 1t would serve to
hold some independent republicans to
vote for the two democrats now in
Office, for it is thought by democrats, if
they can manage to retain these two
men in office in a strong republican
county, they will be doing well. 1t
was but natural to name Wallace for
Treasurer, for as he is certain to be
elected it would help the ticket.
AS to what thu ultimate effect will
be, it is too soon to predict. The
prospects on the whole, are, that it
will not hurt the Republican ticket
1t means that Pat McDanald will sue
ceed himself as sheriff; possibly that
Whitney will stand a good chance OF
being served in the same manner, and
a certainty that Wallace and Huntley
will get there, followed in their turn by
the balance ofthe Republican ticket
From this time on party lines will be
closed up. Many Republicans, who
thought they were Independents. will
see they were mistaken, and will return
to the fold. They caLnot see why they
should vote against Gov. Mellette, the
man who stood by them SO nobly last
winter, and helped SO materially to al
leyiate their distress, and in his place
have a fresh Importation from
Canada in our gubernatorial chair. Il
it possible that we DO not have al
AMERICAN in South Dakota, who Il
qualified to act as governor? 1t cannot
be that the people of South Dakot;
will elect man to this honorable po
s;tion who was naturalized SINCE HI
NoM1NA11oN. IT they do, they deserve
, to have the "Heavens become as brass,

A PECULIAR MARRIAGE MIX.

I got acquainted with a young widow,
observed a recent writer, who lived with
her ~step-dGughter inthe same house. !
married the widow. Shortly afterward.
my father fell in love with the STEP
daughter Of my wife and married her.
My wife became the mother-in-law and
also the daughter in-law of my own
father; my wife's step-daughter of my
wife. Ny fathers wife has a boy; he is
naturally my step brother, because he is
the son of my father and Ct my step
mother; but because he is the son of my
wife's s~tep-daughter, so is my wife the
grandmother of the little boy, and I am
the grandfather Of my st~ep-brother. Ny
wife also has a boy; my step-mother is
consequently the step sister of my boy,
and is also his grandmother, because he
is the child of her step-son; and my father
is tn brother-in.law Of my son, because
he has got his step-sister for a wife. l
am the brother in law of my mother, my
wife is the aunt of her own son, my son
is the grandson of my father, and I am
my own grsnd-father.-EIchange

ELIGIBLE LETTER-WRITER.

When you get an ilIegible lett from
q correspondent don't lose your temper
and write him a scathing rebuke. Just
sit down in q good humor and concoct
one like this of Mr.. T. B. Aldrich to Pro-
fessor E. S. Morse:
"MY DEAR AoRsE:-It was very pleas
ant to me to get a letter from you the
other day. Perhaps I should have found
it pleasanter if l had been able discipher
it. l don't think I mastered anything be-
yond the date-which I guessed at.
There is a singular and perpetual charm
in a letter of yours; it neV grows old
it never loses its novelty. Oae can say
to ones self every morning, there's that
letter of Morse's. I haven't read it yet. l
think I'll take another shy at it to day,
and maybe I shall be able in course of a
few years to make out what he meant by
those is that look like WIS and those Is
that have no eyebrows. Other letters are
read and thrown. away, but yours are
kept fOrever-unread. One of them will
last a reasonable man a lifetime. Admir-
ingly yours, T. B. Aldrich."-M Y. Union

THE ARIZONA KICKER.
Western Editorial Life Continues to be
Full Of Surprises.

We extract the following from a late
issue of the Arizona Kicker:
A Foolish IDEA-CertAin people in this
town are in the habit of shooting into the
Kicker Office every night or two, in hopes
to riddle US. Some lines they shoot
through a window and sometim S through
a door, aud although they have always
wasted their lead, we are growing tired
of the operation. 1t is q foolish idea to
suppose we sleep in any n spot in the
office on two successive nights, and if
these would-be assassins haven't got serse
enough to haul off we shall go into am
bush outside some night and gather q
couple more subjects for our private
graveyard
