A Delightful Children's Game.
When an afternoon full of games has
left the nursery in great disorder, Bessie

Bessie invented it.

turn till all are taken, putting in order that
part Of the room or piece Of furniture
named, and when the game is done be
hold the room neat and fresh again.

What Dawdrons Are.

One autumn evening when the stars werc bright
paused to contemplate their host untold
All glittering with refulgence ofpure gold,
Like gilt eyed daisies in field of night!
And as watched them with deep delight
saw one culver and then lose its hold
And drop to nowhere. Soon another rolled
Adown the sky and filtered out of sight.
So, one by one, full many slipped from view;
And wondering where they fell, my couch I
sought.
When awoke, the Dawn, behind its bars,
Was flushing pink, while sparkling drops Of
dew
Lay on the grass. and then there came this
thought
That dewdrops are the ghosts of falling stars!

Friendship.

Friendship Is not like love. It cannot say:
"Now Is fruition given me, and now
The crown Of me Is set on mine own brow.
This il the minute, the hour and the day."
It cannot find moment which It may
Call that for which 1t lived. There Is no vow,
Nor pledge thereof, nor first fruits Of Its Dough.
Nor harvest, and no myrtle crown nor bay.
Love lives for what 1t may win or has won.
But friendship has no guerdon save to be.
Itself is its own goal, and in tho past
or future can no dearer dreams be done
Or hoped for, save its own dear self to see
The same, and evermore unchanged to the last.

by the Republicans have been those OF
E. p. Freeman and Geo. w. Mead, but
whether either one would accept the
nomination we do not know. Judge
Torrey will be a candidate for re-
nomination, and so far no opposition
has exhibited itself in his party.
p. A. Gunders is candidate for
auditor, subject to the will OF the Re-
publican county convention, and no
other candidate has been mentioned.
l.. O. Randall has the Democratic
nomination chained and doubly hand
cuffed, and the populists will also un-
doubtedly endorse him, if Editor
Morrison can dictate TO that party'S
convention.
G.. L. Benedict will have no opposi-
tiOn for denomination as county at
torney, and may receive the endorse
ment of the Peoples party. Unless
Byron Hughes is again willing to sac
rifice himself, the Democrats are apt
to make no nomination for this office,
from want of candidate.
There will be at least three candi-
dates before the Republican conven-
tion for nomination as superintendent
of schools. The present official, Geo
w. Scherer, seems to be in the lead,
with an active rival in the person of
Chas. Schellbach. Mrs. Stevens will
also ask for the endorsement of the
Republicans as well as of the other
political parties as non-partisan can
didate. w. r. Thompson, of Garden
City, is mentioned as probable Demo
cratic nominee.
We have heard of no candidate for
county surveyor and coroner, but the
present incumbents will probably be
willing to serve again, j. R.Thomp-
son as surveyor and James Shoemaker
as coroner.
For county commissioners, A. M. Han
nay and j. S. Parks have been named
in one district having vacancy, and
John Mahowald is the retiring mem
Der from the city. We have heard OF
no candidates here.
If any of the candidates for any of
the offices have been overlooked, we
shall be glad to hear from them. The
fight for the nominations is now on in
all of the parties, and don't be afraid
to step out and announce yourselves,
gentlemen. 1t is right that the voters
be given an opportunity to size up the
various candidates, that no mistakes
may be made in the conventions, to
be rued afterwards.

DEATH OF HARRY DOUGHERTY

1t was our painful duty Tuesday to
chronicle the death of Harry, the old
est son of Mr.. and Mrs. John Dough-
erty. He was taken sick about a
week ago, with sub-acute meningitis,
but the immediate cause of death was
cerebral hemorrhage. The end came
at 1915 o'clock Monday evening.
Harry was sixteen years old, and
was an exceptionally bright and &C
tive boy. He enjoyed wide acquaint-
ance, and was loved by all who knew
him. He was an earnest scholar, apt
in his studies, and worked hard dur
ing the last year, being ambitious to
advance. Students and teachers
alike made him favOrite, and the
outlook for his future was very bright.
He was willing, helpful boy, of ex-
cellent character, and was the idol
of the family. His sudden taking off
causes general sorrow, and the SYM
pathy of all goes out to the sorrowing
household.

THE CROPS.

Between this city and Waseca the
crops never presented better appear
ance, and there are few wheat fields
along the road that will yield less
than twenty bushels to the acre, to
Judge by appearances. Qualified judges
say that they never saw such crop
anywhere, especially of wheat. Very
few fields were cut last week, but all
are ripe, and the harvest began all
along the line yesterday. We are as
sured that the crops look even better
further east, even to Winona.
To the westward as far as the west
ern counties which suffered severely
from drouth early in the season, the
crops present a splendid sight, and
this favored section extends as far
north as LeSueur and Redwood Falls,
and as far south as Madelia and the
state line. Throughout all this Sec
tion corn is looking splendidly. Flax
is good crop. Oats has been nearly
all harvested and will average up
well. East of this city toward Vase
ca there are no signs of chinch bugs,
and while pasturage has nearly disap-
peared, the continued dry weather
seems to have thus far had no other
bad effect.
r. d. Hubbard has been looking
over the crop during the past few
days, and states that wheat in South
ern Minnesota will almost all grade
No. l. There will be very little No. 2,
but where chinch bugs have been, the
wheat can be used only as screenings.
Towards Madelia and in that vicinity
the yield will be ten bushels to the
acre on the average.
BY the end of the present week the
wheat harvest will have practically
ended. Any continued rain now
would injure the wheat, but in week
or two it will make little difference.

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

Mrs. Geo. III. Fox, who has been en-
joylng visit with her parents and
friends in this city for several weeks
past, was abruptly called to her
homein Wisconsin Tuesday afternoon
through telegram from her husband
requesting her immediate presence.
Mrs. Fox received letter from her
husband yesterday briefly detailing
an accident which befell him week
ago while in the pineries, wherein he
suffered a severe cutting of the foot
with an ak, splitting the foot from the
instep to the end of the big toe. The
injury occurred Tuesday afternoon. and
he had to be carried thirty miles on a
stretcher before surgical assistance
could be had, and it was Thursday be-
fore a doctor could be reached TO
dress the wound. When the letter
was written Mr.. Fox intimated that
Mrs. Fox would not be required, but
it would seem that the case is really
more serious than at first supposed.
baSlng such assumption on the unex-
pected summons received this morn.
ing.
Mrs. Fox had expected to remain
here until September, and was to
have been joined by her husband
about the first OF August. She hopes
that the injury to her husbands foot
IS not SO serious but that he may be
able to come here within two or three
weeks, in which event she will return
and complete her visit.
The many Mankato friends of Mr..
FOX sincerely hope that he will come
out with nopermanentinj resulting
from his accident, and that both he
and Mrs. Fox may be able to make a
visit during the period of his conya-
lescence.
