Democratic County Convention.

The democratic county convention to
elect delegates to the Chamberlain CON
vention was held at the court house last
Saturday afternoon. 1t was called to or
der by the chairman Of the county COM
mittee, r. f. Gibson, who read the call,
and upon motion Chas Brown of Big
Stone township was elected chairman an
w. E. Smith, secretary. The nomination
of three delegates to the state conven-
ton was made, Messrs. w. E. Smith and
verson Of Revillo being nominated and
unanimously elected. A motion was
made and unanimously carried instruct
ing the delegates TO use oil honorable
means to secure the nomination of a
straight democratic ticket, and also one
authorizing the delegates attending the
convention to cast the full vote Of the
convention. The former resolution was
intended to pronounce against fusion
and if the delegates from Grant county
have the deciding voice at the state con-
vention there will be no independent
democratic wedding at Chamberlain.
They propose to have it democratic or
nothing.
The convention vas not very largely
attended, as the democracy of Grant
county was pretty nearly annihllated by
the calamity epidemic that swept over
the country two years ago, the disease
attacking the party with such vlrulence
that but little life was left IN it. How
ever there we're good many individ-
ual democrats who took the disease in a
rather light form, and they have now
fully recovered. You can't squirt any
more subtreasury, fiat money nonsense
into them, and the Wardall-Loucks com
bina,ion will have 10 get along without
their aid this year. This detection from
the calamity ranks is worrying our indie
pendent friends not little, however they
NAV seek to disguise it.

lain this morning announcing that the
convention had unanimously repudiated
fusion with the Independents, and would
put straight democratic ticket in the
field. The chairmen Of the state COM
mittees of both parties had been trying
to make deal on fusion, but il seems
the convention would have none of it.

THE ANARCHISTS DUE,
Twenty-Five Years in Prison For Mr..
Tricks Assailant

The trial of Alexander Berkmann. the
anarchist, who attempted to kill 81. G.
Frick on July %, was called before Judge
McClung in Criminal Court at Pittsburg
Penn. No one not having business in the court
room was permitted to enter. Berkmann,
when brought in. Maintained the same indif-
ferent demeanor that has characterized his
conduct since his arrest. He had no attor
ney, and did not cross-examine witnesses.
He had no with esses for his defence. The
prosecution was conducted by District At
torney Burleigh, who in his opening speech
presented the seven indictments, charging
Berkmann with offences ranging from felc-
NOUS assault and battery down to carrying
concealed weapons
Mr.. Frick, Chairman of the earn egie
Steel Co., and the victim of Bergmann's as
sault. was the first witness He described
the location of the Carnegie Offices. and
stated that the assault was made between
and 8 o'clock on July %. The witness saw
Bergman pacing the hall outside of his
Office when he entered. Shortly after
Bergman was announced, and when
he came in he shot at the witness, who
fell to the floor. Mr.. Frick said that he
tried to rise, but received another bullet
wound. A photograph showing the disar-
ranged furniture as it appeared after the
shooting was shown, as was also the cloth
ing that Mr.. Frick was wearing at that
time.
Berkmann was then asked if he had any
questions to ask, and said: mo" Then he
said in broken English: ''You think that I
wanted to shoot Mr.. Leishman, too!" MIR.
Frick said he did not know about that and
left the stand.
Mr.. Leshman, Vice-Chairman of the Car
negie Steel Company, who was in Mr..
Tricks private Office at the time, said that
he did not see Berkmann nor know of his
presence until he heard the revolver shot
He grappled with Berkmann, who tried to
shoot him, but the weapon missed fire. Mr..
Frick came to Mr.. Leishman's assistance, and
together they grappled with Berkmann, who
then drew the knife AMI stabbed Mr.. Frick
several times.
Berkmann said: ''That statement is un-
true" and asked Mr.. Leishman. 'tAre you
positive I tried t. shoot your Il am
positive my statements are correct" was

him off. The District Attorney did not

The Plague Abroad

The total number of cholera cases at Ham
burg, Germany, up to the time the last bull
letin was given out had been 16, 40, of which
811O ended in death.
The reports for this day indicated a rapid
abatement of the disease in all except two
or three suburbs. TIL number OF fresh cases
had been 621, or eighty-two less than the
day before; the mum Der of deaths 1877; the
number of burials 292. In public institu-
lions there were on this evening 2739 cholera
patients.
Persons refusing to observe the Health
Boards directions are fined and if still re-
caIcitrant, are punished by arrest and i'm
prisonmenU. The first substantial evidence of
the approaching collapse of small business
houses was given, when the news
papers announced that 5000 clerks had been
dismissed by tradesmen. who could no
longer afford to keep them. More such an
nouncements may be expected.
The physicians who examined the seaman
supposed to have cholera on the steamer
Eppleton, which arrived at Queenstown
from Newcastle have decided that the case
is not one of Asiatic cholera. The vessel
has been released.
Fifteen people are at present under treat
ment for cholera in Antwerp, Belgium, but
no new cases have been reported.
Discouraging reports on the cholera cpl
demic come from Cracow, Austria, al
though every effort is made to suppress the
news. The other night three volunteer
nurses died.
Nine new cases of cholera and four deaths
from the disease were reported at Havre,
France.
There were reported in Paris, France and
its suburbs on this same day twenty mine
new cholera cases and fifteen deaths, in
Guiding sixteen new cases and four deaths in

Adopted by a Cat.

John Dempsey, who lives a few miles
out in the valley, tells quite remark
able story and vouches for its truth. He
says that his boy recently found a couple
of very young rabbits out among the
pumpkin vines. AS the festive cotton
tail is source of much annoyance to
farmers. the boy turned them over to the
cat for her dinner. The cat, however,
greatly to the boys surprise, licked the
infants and quietly adopted them as
members of her family, and in most
motherly way encouraged them to par
take of such nourishment as a we'll regu-
lated tabby is wont to offer her eff
spring. At last accounts all hands were
getting on nicely.-Hueneme (Cal.) Her

The Lapps.

The Lapps call their country SABINE or
Same, and themselves Samelots, and the
term lots has generally been supposed to
be a contemptuous nickname given to
them by foreigners, derived from the
Finnish ''lappu," and meaning simply
'sland s-end-folk." A more plausible
suggestion, however, is that of Professor
Friis, of Christiania, who refers the
term to an old Finnish root "lappaa,"
signifying to roam or wander about,
in ailusion to their nomad habits.
In the mouth of southern or
more civilized Lapps it appears to have
become synonymous with rude or bar
barous, and is so applied by them to the
less cultured northern communities.
Authropologists seem to have some
difficulty in assigning to the Lapps their
exnct place in the human family, but it
may be safely affirmed that they are a
combination of Caucasian and MonSOlian
types. Be this as it may, their physical
characteristics are remarkable; decidedly
more remarkable tnan attractive. They
are probably the shortest race IL the
Eastern Hemis phere, unless it be Mr..
Stanley's demoniacal dwarfs. A man
over five feet in height would be giant
among them, and the women are rarely
more than four feet six inches. They
are also the shortest headed and thinnest
skinned people in the world. Some of
them, indeed, are long-headed enough
in the intellectual sense and know as
we'll as any how to drive bargain and
deal with strangers, but they are none
the less pre- eminentiy what the scientific
people designate as ''brachycephalic. -

Not as Many Stars as We Imagine.

There seems to be little doubt that the
number of the visible stars is really linn
tied. Most astronomers now admit that
the total number of stars visible in our
largest telescopes cannot much exceed
100, 100000. This is, of course, a large
number, but compared with an infinite
number it is really very small. 1t may
be proved automatically - and the
demonstration is very simple one-that
were the number of stars really infinite,
and equally distributed through infinite
space, the whole heavens would shine
with the brightness of the sun.

Andrews any provisions he required, but

The Sandy Hook Refuge.

The opening of Camp Low. Sandy Hook,
N. j., which had been set apart for the re-
eeption of immigrants from the infected
vessels and from Hoffman Island, was de-
layed for several days after its preparation
had been completed, but it was finally
brought into use.
DR.. Hamilton says that he was forced to
postpone the opening of the camp, because
the New Jersey authorities refused to allow
the New Jersey Central Railroad to run
freight trains to the camp, as they had
promised to do. This compelled the authori-
ties to use tugs for the transmission of sup
plies.
