and left IL there in tho place Of the one
he coveted.
North Wind is a pretty good fell
low. said Olaf when he got home to
his mother. Here's a ram he has Civ
en- me that will make ali the money we
want. If ! but say the word"
1T will take a great deal to make
me believe such stuff. " exclaimed laf's
mother. t
My ram. make money" cried Olaf
promptly, but never u coin did the ram
bring forth.
II knew it wasa all nonsense, I" walled
| the widow. and that was all the COM
fort Olaf got.
Without another word he sped back
to North Wind and told him the ram
had proved absolutely worthless. He
had come now to demand his rights, he
said.
Upon my word, you're q plucky
lad, exclaimed North Wind. well.
the best l can do for you now is to give
You the stick In yonder corner. It may
be of some use to You. If you say. MY
stick. do your duty, it will go on strik-
ing until you say, My stick, be still.
With many thanks Olaf started for
home. As he passed the inn where he
had lost his treasures, he thought it
might not be a bad thing to stop there
nee more. So he went in, threw him
self down on a bench and was soon
snoring loudly.
The landlord quickly spied the magic
stick, and taking it for granted it
might be worth as much to him as the
cloth and ram he had taken from the
same guest he found another stick that
looked like it to leave in its place.
But as he laid hands on North Winds
gift, Olaf, who vas only pretending to
be asleep, started up, crying.
My stick, do your duty"
Then the stick fell to beating the
landlord, who tumbled headlong over
benches and tables, shrieking and
screaming:
For mercy's sake, bid this stick be
still. or it will beat me to death. Stop
it-for PHYS sake stop it, and I'll give
you back. your tableeloth and your
ram"
AS soon as Olaf thought mine host
had been well punished he said quietly:
My stick, be still"
At once the magic stick ceased from
its labors. and the landlord restored the
stolen goods to their rightful owner.
Olaf put the tahlecloth and the stick
n his pocket, and fastening a cord to
the ram s horns led it home in triumph.
North Wind had paid handsomely
for the -four. and the widow and her
son lived in peace and plenty all their
days. -Auber Forester in Philadel-
phia Press.

The Coolest Cold.

The science Of chemistry. like that
of geography, has its undiscovered north
pole. Four hundred and sixty-on de-
grees below the freezing point Of the
Fahrenheit thermometer l-274 degree
CO lies a mysterious, specially indi-
Gated degree of. cold which science has
long been gazing toward and striving
to attain, wondering meanwhile what
may be the conditions of matter at this
unexplored point. Its existence has
long been indicated and its position es-
tablished in two different ways-viz,
the regularly diminishing volume OF
gases and the steady falling off OF the
resistance made by pure metals to the
passage through them Of electricity I'M
der increasing degrees of cold.
This point, to which both these proc
esses tend as an ultimate. is called the
zero ct absolute temperature. BY more
than n eminent observer tits supposed
to be the temperature of interstellar
space, the normal temperature OF the
universe. Whether or not this suppo-
sition be correct, the efforts which have
been made and are still in progress to
reach this degreeof cold have beenmany,
diverse and Ingenious, the eqnipment of
the explorer being not boats, condensed
foods and the generaI machinery OF ice
exploration, but all the varied resources
Of mechanics and of chemistry wh3ch
can be combined to compass the ex-
tremest degree of cold. McCluxs's

Low PRICES.
Ii you have been renting a
house in the city, stop a moment
and think how much you have
paid out in rent, and if you have
been renting long you will soon
figure out that you have paid out
enough for rent to build as good
or a better house than you are rent
ing, and still you have no home of
your own. Why not put this
money intoa
HOUSE OF YOUR OWN,
in which you viii feel a natural
pride, and have a permanent and
pleasant home for yourself and
family in your declining years. A
little Aaergy on your part will do
it. Start at once by
BUYING A LOT.
Ii you are renting a farm figure
a moment what you are paying out
annually for rent and how soon
this rental would buy a farm here.
What you pay out in rent in two
or three years in Iowa or Illinois
would buy equally as good a farm
in South Dakota. Stop renting
and come out and buy a farm of
your W and feel the independ-
ence Of
OWNING A HOME.
Don't delay this until next year, as
very much advanced prices for
South Dakota real estate, which is
sure to come, will soon prevent you
from buying, and your opportuni-
ty of q lifetime viii be gone.
But many will say, II have not
sufficient money on hand with
which to buy even a lot" Sup

convenience, saving a little for the
purpose from your other expendi-
lures, and before you know it your
lot is
PAID FOR
and you have not missed the mon
ey, the amount of each payment
being SO small. Had you not saved
and expended these small amounts
in this way, the chances are that
this same money would have been
expended in some trivial way and
you would have nothing to show
for it. Surely there is no

We own and control nearly all the
real estate which we handle, hence

and easy terms of payment. If
you only have a few dollars to

we will fit you out with a good lot,
more than one if you want, and

county at their convention Friday last,
nominated J. E. Raney for the state
senate and Charles White of Verona for
the house. Mr.. Raney is a leading
stock man and farmer from the western
part OF the county. Mr.. White has
always affiliated with the democrats, and
it is said that be will be nominated by
the democrats at the convention held
today. The Independents also nominated
Attorney Blackwell of Adrian, who Is
the republican nominee for states attor-
ney, and a good man. The independents
took broad euage view of the selection
Of candidates for county offices, and laid
aside partisan matters to get good
county ticket that would appeal to the
voters. La Moure county has always
run her affairs in good economical shape
and the action of the independents and

Colonel knauf's Fight.
policy,
From TUESDAYS Daily.

Colonel John knauf, the candidate for
the Office of county Judge, is all smiles
today on account of the manner in which
the primaries were carried last night in
his favor. There was very little excite
1nent at any of the ward voting places,
but there is probability that at the con-
vention there will be little warmth or
account of irregular proceedings alleged
to have taken place. The fight lay prln-
cipally between Colonel Knauf and
Judge Baldwin, the present lncu mbent.
for the securing of delegations favorable
to the candidates for the nomination of
county Judge.
IN the first ward l9 candidates we're
nominated and votes east for 20, showing
that the slate did, not get in it's work as
much as was anticipated, the desire
being TO seed capable men to the county
consention. This and the Fourth wards
were the only places where there was
any effort made to do away with the
ticket. In the second ward harmony cid
not reign supreme, rs two tickets ap-
peared in the field, but here the Colonel
secured complete victory. Some claim
illegal voting was made. In the Third
ward charges of illegal voting we're
made and votes challenged and
early today considerable talk was
heard OF contesting the rights Of the
delegates to seats, but this may not
materalize. Some Russians we're rushed
IN and voted notwithstanding the claim
that they we're illegal and had no right
to vote. It is estimated that nine or ten
OF such votes were cast. Chairman
Ingrsham OF the primary refused this
morning to sign the credentials Of the
delegates for his ward. ....

CARLISLE'S CHANGE OF BASE.

Sentiments Advocated by John G. Car
Isle in 1878.
Il know the worlds stock Of precious
metals is none too large, and | see no
reason to apprehend that it will ever be
80. Mankind will be fortunate indeed if
the annual production Of gold and silver
coin shall keep pace with the annual in
crease of population and industry.
According to my views OF the subject,
the conspiracy which seems to have been
formed here and IN Europe to destroy,
by legislation and otherwise, from three
seventbs to one halt the metallic money
OF the world, is the most gigantic crime
OF this or any other age. The consum-
nation Of such scheme would ulti-
mately entail more misery upon the hu-
man race that all the wars, pestiences,
and famines that ever occurred in the his.
tory Of the world.
The absolute and instantaneous de-
structlon OF half the entire movable
property OF the world. including houses,
ships railroads, and other appliances for
carrying on commerce, while it would be
felt more sensibly at the moment, would
not produce anything like the the pro-
longed distress and disorganlzation OF
society that must inevitably result from
the permanent annihilation of one-half
the metallic money OF the world" Feb.
olst, 1873, John G. Carlisle.
John G.. fell into the Wall street cess
pool since 1878. His democracy has been
besmirched and his Jeffersonan ideas
drowned. He is now Cleveland's secre-
tary OF the treasury issuing gold bonds
to pay running expenses and advocating
further restriction.of money, and the dis
use OF silver now in the treasury.
