ST. PAUL, Nov lin South Dakota
the independents have conceded the
election OF the republican state ticket,
and the latest returns seem to indicate
the election of u repu blican majority in
the legislature insuring the reelection
of Senator Moody. Pierre has won the
permanent capital by from 5000 to
10000 majority, although Huron does
not yet concede the fact. Late to-day
Chairman Pennler, of the democratic
committee, comedies the election OF both
republican congressman and most of the
state ticket but claims the governor and
enough OF the legislature to give ma
jority TO the alliance and democrats.

Seattle Press: While the Puget sound

it is fair to presume that this section OF
the country can not be held responsible.
The country is all right,its natural prod

citizens is the cause. by needing the

so badly left another year. Meantime

American ports. met with u remarka-
BILE experience on their return voyage,
The adventure, as told by one oil the
crew, is thus narrated in the Lower
Californian:
Eve had been week out from
Santo Domingo, and were out about
twenty miles northeast from Cedros
Island, when early one morning
we saw commotion in the sea about
a mile off. 1t was very quiet morn
ing, and we crept up very close. We
saw a strange sight A whale about
so feet long had been found or killed
by the monster that was feeding upon
it.
Eat intervals the serpent would rear
up out of the sci 50 that we could
coolly survey his entire form. His
body was round and about three times

Its head was as near like turtle as
anything else, with the mouth set
we'll back under the jaw. We did not
see the eyes, so can not say II they
are the traditional flaming eyeballs or
not. On each side OF the body were
five or six legs, each webbed and
horned like the wings OF II dragon.
''While feeding on the whale il made
a peculiar. horrible Wheeling or hiss
ing sound, but when it saw Us it stop
ped aud drew slowly away, looking
back over its shoulder at us. 1t circled
away about half a mile, and we
could still see it kept an eye on'us.
1--WE made haste and sailed away
from that locality, for il inclined it
could have taken our little schooner at
a mouthful. As we came north we
saw the weird monster return to his
prey, and before long the breeze
brought the horrible wheeling sound
to our ears.

LIFE OF A FREIGHT BRAKEMAN.

Dnst- grlmed features weather beaten,
Hands that show the scars of toll;
DO you envy him his station,
Patient tiller of the soili
In the storm or in the sunshine
He must mind the speeding train,
Hide outside at post of duty;
Needing not the drenching rain.
But in the pleasant summer weather,
Standing on the car-top high,
He can view the changing landscape
As he rushes swiftly by.
AS he views the changing pictures
That the lovely landscape makes,
Suddenly across his dreamings
Comes the quick, shrill cry for brakes.
But when winters icy fingers
Cover earth with snowy shroud,
And the north wind, like mailman,
bushes on with shriekiugs loud,
Then behold the gallant brakeman
Haste to heed the engines call,
Running on the icy car-tops-
God protect him if he fall.
Do not scorn to greet him kindly,
He will give you smile for smile;
Though he nothing but brakeman
Do not deem him mean or vile.
Speak to him in words OF kindness,
Though his clothes are coarse and plain,
For his heart can beat responsive
To the touch of joy or pain.
Daily facing death and danger,
One misstep or slip of hand
Sends the poor, unlucky brakeman
10 the dreadful, unknown land.
AS we read our evening paper,
Noting what it's columns say,
One brief line attracts our notice,
''One more brakeman killed to day."
He may have widowed mother,
He may be her only Joy;
Maybe in her home she's praying
For the safety of her boy;
For he loves that dear old mother,
TOiling onward day by day,
Always bringing her some present
Every time he draws his pay.
In the little lonely cottage,
Sitting in the waning light,
Sits the luckless brakemans mother,
Who expects her boy tonight
Some one brings the fatal message
God have mercy" hear her pray,
As she reads the fearful story:
skilled while coupling cars to-day"
