How to Write a Letter.

Write the date distinctly, the day
of the month and the year-not just
the day of the week.
Write on plain, unlined paper.
Write your ''q's" and ''y's' differ
emily, their tails turned in opposite
directions.
Write your s't'sn with a cross and
you lis" with a dot.
Write an answer to your friends
questions; if she had not wanted to
know she would not have asked you.
Write with black ink-pale or faded
ink has broken off more friendships
and love affairs than one would I'M
agine.
Write your name distinctly. If
you are a married woman sign it, for
example, Virginia Andrews" x
actly as if you were not married; but
if it is a business letter, the Mrs.
should be put in parenthesis before
your name; or, better still, the letter
may be written in the third person.
This same rule applies to an unmar-
ried woman.
Write a short, crisp letter, a con
centration of brightness. 1t will be
much more appreciated than one
longer drawn out.
Write as little as possible on the
subject of love. Words Of love are
much better said than written.
Write yourself down a bright, SEN
sible girl, and you will then have
written the very best letter that a
girl can possibly write.-LadieS'

THE SENTENCE APPROVED.
A Breath of Fresh Air.
From the Ne,r yorI. U-orfd CDem


From the Neav York World CDem)
The sentence to eighteen months in
prison which Judge Lippincott yesterday
imposed upon the four Jersey City
election officers convicted of fraud at
last November's election is a breath of
fresh air. The Judge rightly rebuked
the jury's senseless recommendation of
the n Republican in the group to
mercy. In such a case there are no
degrees Of guilt. The election officer
who aids in classifying an election which
he is appointed to keep pure commits a
crime against liberty, with perjury as an
incident, and there can be no such thing
as mitigating circumstances. Every
such man should receive the full penalty
allowed by law.
Strong and True Words.
"No one," said Judge Lippincott at
Jersey City Monday, while sentencing
the four convicted election officers, "no
one who becomes the willing tool of an
other to corrupt the elective franchise
can ever after claim to be possessed of
common honesty" Strong inc true
words, words to be taken to heart and
remembered. There are many men in
New Jersey who need just such strong
preaching as was that OF Judge Lippin-
colt. During the last campaign bribery
was considered a TESTING matter. The
investigation at Jersey City has purified
the air and ever the Democrats who
early this year vigorously opposed the
work, are now praisers of it, and acknowl-
edge its good in the results it has
achieved. A briber or taker OF a bride
cannot claim to be possessed of common
honesty. That should be placed in every
political club room in the land, not be-
cause members of the clubs would be
guilty of practicing Hudson county
methods. oh no, but to remind them of
the status of the bribers. When the
briber sees his crime relegated to its
proper degree he will reform. Down with

His i 9 of 1t.

A missionary was preaching to an
American frontier audience on the
prodigal son. After he had described
the condition of the son in rags among
the swine, and had started him on his
return, as he began to speak of the
father coming to meet him and order
ing the fatted calf to be killed in
honor of the prodigal's return, he
noticed a cowboy looking interested
and he determined to make a per-
sonal appeal. Looking directly at
his nearer the preacher said:-"My
friend, what would you have done if
you had had a son returning home in
such a plight?n I'D have shot the
boy and raised the calf,n was the
prompt reply.-OBce q Week.

only name presented. No one seemed
to court the honor, and in consequence Mr..
Litchfield was declared the unanimous
choice of the committee.
With Mr.. Lloyd still in the chair, the
body was then resolved into an equalization
committee. and W. j. Ruddick, ey-Conn:y
Clerk, and Jabez S. Swan were bots placed
in nomination. 1t had already been noised
about that Swan bad the nomination as
sured. and the friends of Mr.. Ruddick in
very short time discovered this and with
drew him from the fight. This was done
when they saw the fight was hopeless, and,
in accordance Herewith, it was moved by
Frank Merrill that the nomination of Mr..
Swan be made by acclaim alton, which was
done without dissenting vote, and Mr..
Swan was declared to be the nominee.
The scenes were then again shifted, and
Mr.. Lloyd still chung to the chair. He au-
nounced the object of the meeting to be
the nomination of a candidate for Con-
gress in the Fourth District, and i'm
mediately Judge Dibble arose and pre-
sented for the consideration of the COM
mittee the name of W. w. Morrow, which
was greeted with cheers. When he re-
ferred to Mr.. Morrow's. record in Congress
he was applauded again and again until it
became evident in fact that there was no
opposition to him. Judge Dibble recalled
his eminent services ON the Chinese ques-
ton and his value to the people of Califor-
MO as a representative, and predicted that
if nominated he would be elected by an in
creased majority. When he concluded his
speech he was again cheered, and by a
unanimous vote the nominations were
closed, and Mr.. Morrow declared to be the
nominee by reclamation.

SAN RAFAEL, Aug. 25.-Yesterday after
noon Vicenti Pangalina and Antonio Lu-
JAM, two Portuguese wood-chOppers, were
taking their Sunday rest and passing their
time pleasantly with one of their country
women on the Mailliard Ranch at San
Geronimo. Lujani had imbibed too freely of
wine and started to quarrel with the
woman. The quarrel continued few min
utes when Lujani struck the woman. Pan
galina interfered and said that LujanfS
action was not manly, wbereupOn Lujani
drew knife and slashed Vicenti across the
abdomen. Sheriff Healy was notified and
started to the scene, arriving there early
this morning. II was learned that after
the affray the aggressor had fled to the
mountains, and his colaborers stated
that it was likely he would go
to SauSalitO and then to San Francisco to
ship, he being a sea-faTing man. Men were
detailed TO watch all the trains, but no trace
of the wouldbe-mur1erer has been found.
This morning Drs. White and Jones went
to San Geronimo to attend the wounded man.
Il was found that he had been slashed
across the abdomen for about tx inches, so
that his intestineS protruded. The doctors
laboTed on the case for some time, but give
their opinion that he cannot survive. The
description of Luiani is as follows: Height,
8 feet inches: % years old; black eyes and
hair; round, full face; small black mustache;
occupation, sailor; smallpox marks on his
face

BOISE CITY, Aug 25.-The Democratic
State Convention met here this afternoon.
Hon. James II. Hawley was chosen tenn
poraTy Chairman and the customary COM
mittees were appointed. The Committee on
Credentials failed to agree. The cause of
the trouble, as stated by the Chairman,
Matt Lunie Of Boise County. was that in
the Bear Lake country the MOrmons and
Gentiles had both elected delegates, and
they could not at the time decide which set
of delegates to recognize. Hon. John
HALEY, ex-Delegate in Congress, and Ben
jamIn Wilson of Ploneervile are both
mentioned for Representative in Congress.
Indications are now that Frank Taylor of
Bingham County will be nominated for
Governor; Kelly Of Nez PerceS will be the
nominee for Lieutenant-Goyernor; Sher-
man of North Idaho, Secretary OF State;
Wickersham, the present Comptroller, will
be nominated for State Auditor by acelama-
ton. Fred Dingle and Tim Rogan are
spoken of for State Treasurer, with the
chances in favor Of DiDgle. Either eX-Su-
preme Judge Weir or J. BrGmhack will be
the nominee for Attorney General. If
Weir gets the nomination for the Supreme

union has been divided into an advance
guard, composed of twenty four, COM

in command of John Hume. Each COM

now until the parade takes place. The float
originally proposed by the coast seamen
was full-rigged barkentine, but they have
now decided that 1t shall be bark
An additional feature of this unions d.
vision will be a well-drilled company of
boys and girls, probably about two dozen,
all in handsome sailor suits and COM
manded by Freddie Anderson.
The float will be commanded by Captain
Gust Eohman and First Mate Jules Ander-
son. 1t will alsohave figure head in front
representing Neptune standing in huge
she'll and bearing trident for a sceDter.
The seamen hoped and originally figured
on turning out at least 500 in line. They
even went as far as to purchase 800 fine uni
forms, but the great demand for seamen for
the northern waters has taken so many
away that they may not be able now to turn
out over 400.

Acclamntion.
w. w. Morrow was renominated for Con-
gress in the Fourth District by reclamation
last night at Irving Hall, and that he will
accept and make the race there seems but
little room for doubt. So universal was the
belief that he was not only the right man
for the place but the only man whom the
Republicans could afford to nominate, that
no opposing candidate was even consid-
cred.
Reuben FL. Lloyd acted as Chairman of
the meeting, and as there was a Railroad
Commissioner, member Of the Board of
Equalization and a Congressman to nomin-
ate, the body was first resolved into Rail-
road Committee and proceeded at once to the
selection of candidate for that position,
the matter having been deferred at the Sacra-
