A SUCCESSFUL CD OPERATION.

A SUCCESSFUL CD OPERATION.
 A local exchange says: "Drs. Quack and Butcher put the patient under the influence of anesthetics and the operation was performed successfully" .* * Now, as the defunct was alive before the afore- said successful operation" was be- gun, and unfortunately dead after the operation was so successfully performed" l cannot, for the life of me, see wherein the operation can be termed a most complete and bowling success. Such unmitigated prevarication is enough to cause the corpse to scratch its way out of the grave to damn the writer liar of the first magnitude. I would sug- gest 10 the writer, that in his next panegyric upon another successful operation, he supplement it with a card from the defunct acknowledg- ing its many thanks for the suc- cessful operation so pre-eminently successful in it's results.

 c. P. Huntington says he would have kicked the dynamiter up two pair of stairs and finally out into the street. Brave Huntington !! May your like increase. But, as all brave men are never unnecessarily rude, and are always gentle in their department towards their fellows, I think the papers have unwittingly misquoted that brave, good man and, what they should have report cd was; Mr. Huntington would have kicked the pesky dynamite it. self into the street, to be followed up by the sweeper, with his broom and basket, in the final act.

 One of our esteemed contempo- raries, with the owl of wisdom perched upon his classic poll, says ''the experiment of preaching ten minute sermons, and devoting more time to musical services, attracts much larger audiences" There can not be any doubt of that fact; and, to make the reform a more com- plete success. the preachers should drop the ten minute" self-lauda- tory show, and by sandwiching the musical services with Punch and Judy, and other kindred diversions, they can fill their churches to over flowing with an interesting and ap- preciative congregation.

A NEGRO boy was bitten by rat tlesnake at Fl Dorado Springs, Mo, and whose arm swelled as if it would burst, was, it is reported, completely cured by being buried in the mud. He was taken to the bank of 8 stream and so covered that only his face was visible. He was kept in this position for two hours, when another hole was dug and the boy was again buried, At the time the transfer was made 1t was seen that the swelling had al most entirely disappeared from the arm, and the boy said he felt much better. He was kept in the second hole for two hours and then taken out and fed on chicken broth. His recovery was very rapid and on the second day there was no sign of the snake bite.

City..Electiolt.

The city election will occur on the
third Tuesday OF April, or two weeks
from next Tuesday. It will not bo, in
q political sense, an important election,
but as far as the interests Of the city
are concerned, it will be very I'm
portant one. Three aldermen are to
be elected, one for each ward, and it is
of the utmost Importance they should
be thoroughly identified with the per-
manent welfare and upbuilding of the
city. In cases like the present, when
all are lmbued with the spirit Of inn
provement and advancement, 1T is bet
ter, IN the opinion Ct the STAR, that
politics should be laid aside, and every
body unite in the selection Of the very
best men, for these positions. Men Of
brains, men of integrity, men Of
honest purpose. The time is short and
it would be we'll for the voters Of each
ward to begin to consider which man
among them is best fitted for alder
men. Our city will make vast strides
in the way of improvement the coming
season and none but men Of broad and
comprehensive minds should be chosen.
Since the city has been divided in to
three wards, making three voting pre-
clncts the city council will designate
the polling places in each ward. AS
this is the first election since the ward
ordinance wen, IN to effect, and there
are no ward committees, the STAR pro.
poses that the council at its next meet
ing suggest proper time for the
holding of ward caucuses to nominate
candidates for aldermen.

The prospect for good crops is bright
all over Sonth Dakota. Il. c. Richards,
of the Consolidated Land and Irriga-
ton company, of Huron, on his return
;; from a trip through the northwest
part of the STAGE, is reported as saying
that the snowstorm OIL Easter was
worth millions to the people of the
north part of the state, and especially
in Faulk county. Farmers are arrang-
ing to put IN a much larger acreage
than they would, had not the snow
fallen. The moisture is sufficient to
insure early growth and all conditions
are more favorable than for several
years past. Farmers, he says, are in
fine spirits and are confident that the
present will he season of bountiful
crops. The company represented by
MIR. Richards is putting down an
artesian we'll on tract of land owned
by them about two miles north OF
Orein, in Faulk county, which will be
used for irrigating purposes. About
fifty acres is being put in readiness 70,
irrigation the present season.

A number Of third rate politicians
of this state hope to elevate them
selves politically and increse their
Importance accordingly by throwing
mud at Senator rettigrew. These
men are devoid of nolitical sagacity or
they would know that one man never
elevates himself by slandering another.
This is cheap kind Of notoriety and
is resorted to only by desperate and
disappointed men. The republican
party can spare all such men,
The above is from the Mitchell Capt.
tai, which paper not many months
ago was throwing mud at Senator
Moody. The fact is that Senator
Pettigrew himself initiated The mud
throwing act because majority Of the
members Of the legislature persisted
IN voting for some other man beside
Pettlgrew's favorite candidate for U.
S. Senator, and the earnest, honest
republicans of the state are resenting
this action Of Senator Pettigrew's.
II such men as Tho.. Sterling, Of
I,edfeld, A. b. Melville, of Huron and
others that might be mentioned are to
be classed as third rate politicians
then it is the third rato politicians OF
the state that are not friendly to Mr.
Pettigrew's manner of doing things
and the sooner Frank Pettlgrew learns
that the people under God propose tt
rule and not be ruled by a few ambi
tious politicians the better it will bt
for h,m. Only recently Mr.. Pettigrev
declared his intention OF digging sixty
political graves. Hon. Thos. Sterling
Of led6eld apropos to that declaration
said, II will he easier for sixty men t,
dig one political grave than FOR on
man to dig sixty.

The war cloud seems to be disslpat-
ing fast. 1t seems to be general
opinion of all the foreign powers that
Italy has become the laughing stock of
Europe. There does not appear to he
any warrant whatever for the recall Of
Minister Pava, except the very pro-
bable one, tnat he is personally dis.
tasteful to Secretary Blaine. When
time develops the full ,nwardness of
the affair it will lie shown that Pava
was recalled by request Of the United
States.
