\ BOSTON PARTY PRIMARY.


II Was on the Australian Ballot Sys-
TEN Plan.
BosToN, Sept 22.-State Senator John
F. Fitzgerald will be the Democratic
nominee for Congress in the ninth dis
trict, and Congressman McEttrick will
not be the regular nominee IN the 10th.
These are two features Of the Boston
caucus held last night by the Democratic
party.
These were the first primaries held by
the party under the new caucus act re-
quiring the use of the Australian ballot
system. This act and the immense vote
brought out BY excitement In the con-
gressional fight made the counting OF
the votes tremendous task and not
until this morning was 1t possible to get
definite information. In the ninth dis
trict Fitzgerald will have 81 delegates to
the convention and O'Neil &c. In the
10th enough information has been re-
ceived to show that Congressman Nc
Ettrick has been defeated for the regular
nomination bv Mnary. Congressman
McEttrick will therefore run as an indie
pendent candidate, as he has already
announced he would do.

From Harper's Bazaar
A house IN which there Is no orderly
routine is a very uncomfortable place, no
doubt, but too much order may be equally
disagreeable and wearing, the nerves of the
family being rasped as were those of the
people who nved with r. Wilfer's wife.
People to whom order is not the means to
a desired end, but the end itself give them
selves aud others a great deal of needless
trouble A chair or u book out of place dis
tresses them. A blur on the window pane
drives them to distraction unless they can
at once remove it. A meal slightly delayed
beyond the appointed hour loses for them
its SAVIOR.
Order is their fetch. In vain their friends
beg them to be philos optical, to try elastic
ity as 4 sort of buffer against ahnoyances.
They shake their heads YEARLY and keep
on fretting- And the fretting marks their
foreheads and indeats their lips and writes
its record on their faces, while husbands
and children sigh for a little cheerful hap

over-orderly mother is often, by the law of
reaction, an absurdly unsystematic person.

Telegraph tolls are moderately light, as
a rule, but sometimes they appear to be ex-
cessive as in the case told some years ago
of Manchester man whose wife was going
abroad. He asked her to telegraph him
a word or two, letting him know of her
safe arrival in London.
In a few hours he received the following
message. marked collect:
Dear George-Arrived here safely at fif-
teen minutes after six. The train was due
at six, but we were delayed fifteen minutes
while en- route. Had a perfectly lovely
journey. Do not worry about me; will get

Told by n Photographer.
Courier Journal.

From the Louisville Courier Journal.
This is a photographers story: About a
year ago a young man employed in a rail-
road office came in and had his picture
taken About the same time a beautiful
young woman from an interior town came
in and had hers taken also; both left the
order desiring me to send them TO their ad-
dresses as soon as finished. In the book
my clerk put the initial of the first name
and wrote the surname in full. 1t happen
ed both had the same last name; the young
mans name was John H and the
young woman's Julia H. When the
pictures were mailed there was mistake,
the young man getting the young woman's
pictures and vice versa.
Now, out of this incident quite a love
affair has grown, the young people having
fallen in love with one another at sight of
the pictures. They corresponded for sew
eral months. Some time ago the young man
bought a solitaire diamond ring. and now
he has ordered his wedding suit. That is
what call a frst-class romance. The best
of it all is that the couple are well suited in
every respect AMI be n are of good fam
ilies.'

From The st. Louis Globe Democrat.
The mines which built the city of Helena
in Montana were discovered by a party
Of four prospectors who were on their way
to well-known camp in the Kootenai
country. Learning that the diggers In that
quarter had failed they turned aside to
prospect I'm another direction, and for some
time wandered about. digging holes here
and there, but finding nothing that they
considered worth working. About noon of
the 18th day of July, 1864, they arrived on
the site of the city of Helena, halted for
dinner and to rest their horses. They had
tested the stream now known as Last
Chance creek, but found nothing, and were
not disposed to make any further investi-
cation, deeming their abor useless. Dinner
over. their horses were saddled, when one
Of their number walked down to the stream

mere force of habit ne began mechanically
scratching the gravel with his hands, when
to his establishment he drew out a nugget
as big as a gold dollar. He shouted to the
rest, who were already on their way. to
return with the pans. and showed them
his discovery. At first incredulous, they
were disposed to disregard his request. but
the sight OF the nugget changed their
minds. In short order the horses were un-
saddled and a hole dug. A hundred dol
lars worth of gold was taken out I'm twenty
minutes. 1t was exactly the place they
were looking for. They Immediately set
tied and located claims: In a short time
news of their success spread abroad Hun
dreds OF other miners focked to the spot
and a mining camp of unprecedented rich
ness was established. The city of Helena
grew up on the spot, and IL is said that
one Of the banks of that city is situated
on portion of the first claim located by
the lucky quartet. 1t is also said that their
names were Cowan, Crab, Miller and STAN
ley, though to what extent each profited by
the discovery is not certain. As a general
thing. the men who discover a rich district
are not the men who are ultimately en-
riched by ii, and ii is possible that in this
case the rule held good.

Scientists Tell of the Ways fin which

The ST. Louis Republic has collected the
opinions of number of scientists con-
corning the probable fate of the last man.
They say: THE surface of the earth is
slowly but surely diminishing; all the
landed portion will be submerged and the
last man will be drowned.
The ice is gradually accommodating at the
north pole and slowly melting away al
the south. Eventually the eartt's center
of gravity will suddenly change and the
last man will be crushed by the rush of
movables that will quickly glide over its
surface.
There Is a retarding medium i'm space
causing a gradual loss of velocity in all
of the planets. The earth, when her revo-
buttons finally cease, will be drawn nearer
and nearer to the sun until the last man
will be literally roasted OF the face of the
earth.

there will be no last man."

the earth's glacial zones will enlarge
