Southern Politics,

The resolute and exciting contest
which has just closed in Kentucky serves
to emphasize the dissension that exists in
the Democratic party Of the South.
Heretofore, that organization has presen-
ted remarkable example of "well-or-
dered ranks marching all one way" and
now it is beset with antagonisms and
contentious that threaten to make a
mockery Of its boasted conference and
potency. The Kentucky campaign was
one of as much activity and bitterness
as ever occurred in the case of two sepa-
rate parties. All the resources of politi-
cal warfare were employed by the op-
posing factions, and animosities were en-
gendered that are sure to survive and to
prolong the strife, 1t is the same in
most of the other Southern States. The
Democrats of that section of the country
are pulling at cross purposes not only Oh
the silver question, but also on the tariff
issue and other matters of Importance.
There IS no longer solid South IN the
sense that the people are content to let
the Democratic leaders do their thinking
for them and use their votes as a great
aggregated quantity to be cast into tie
political scale with the force of an army
obeying orders regardless of consequent
ces. The intelligence of society is as
serting itself and insisting upon it's right
to be consulted and regarded in the adj
justment of party policies and purposes.
This does not signify necessarily that
the Democratic party of the South IS d.
vided against itself in a permanent and
destructive way; but it does mean that
the time has come when superior wis.,
dom will be required to avert such re-
suit, and that the conditions are very fa-

New Ulm Cycle News.

The bicycle races have been run and
local riders have learned few things re.
lative to competition riding.
Some of our boys rode well, some with
but poor judgment, but all rode for all
they were worth.
VIM. M. Taylor is undoubtedly the
fastest man in this section of the state
He rides with good judgment and per.
feet ease.
Mr.. Balfour, the great English states
man, is an ardent bicycllst; F. W. John
son has also resumed the use of a bike,
he having won a wheel in a rattle.
A bicycle is better than a horse to
ninety nine men and women out of a
hundred, because it costs nothing to keep
it.
The race track was very heavy on the
4th. A terrific wind was blowing down
the back stretch and of course no fast
time was made. But it tried the me tai
of both rider and wheels and no acci-
dents happeneu.
Some one made the blunder of getting
a cheap bicycle. No one can imagine
that a bicycle could have so many fail
ings as that one developed.
Visitors on the 4th were we'll satisfied
with the treatment they received and all
promised to be with us next time.
1t is not unlikely that another race
meet will be held next month.
Ray Hall, W. Borland and W. Reich
enbach rode we'll, but unfortunately
failed to be placed. Taylor was too
much for them.
OF the 26 riders entered there were on
ly 8 who failed to be here.
A muddy hole is perfect magnet to
the bicycle when ridden by beginner.
The large crowd at the race track,
showed that our people appreciate true
amatuer sport.
Everything worked to perfection at
the races, The officers knew their bust
ness, the riders behaved gentlemanly and
in fact the meet was big success.
Owing to scme misunderstanding the
bicycle parade contained only about one
third Of the wheels in town.
Fred Brust has grown six inches tall
er and VIM. Pfefferle feels twice as big
now us on July 3rd.
1t is not how much you ride, but how
we'll you tide. Get all the pleasure you
can out of your wheel and avoid that
tired feeling which over exertlon gener-
ates.

In the vicinity of Boquet, Westmore-

you how to cure a Lame back or stiff
neck. They danpen q piece Of flannel
with Chamberlain's Pain Balm and bind
it on the affected parts and in one or two
days the trouble has disappeared. This
same treatment will promptly cure pain
in the side or chest. Mr. E. M. Frye, a

Manufacture of Wild Men.

There arc many curious trades in the
world, but the most strange must surely
be tho "artiiicial manufacture of wild
men," Yet IL well known English doctor
in China has just certified from his own
personal experience that this art is regu-
larly practiced in the Flowery Kingdom.
First, q youth is kidnapped, then bit by
bit he is flayed alive, and the skin Of n
dog or bear grated piece by piece upon
him. His vocal chords are next destroyed
by the action of charcoal to make him
dumb, and the double purpose of causing
ctio!ation'' of the skin and utter degra-
dation of the mental faculties is effected
by keeping him immured in perfectly
dark hole for a number of years. In fact
by treating him like n brute for sutfi-
GENTLY long time he is made into one
At last he is exhibited to the entirely
credulous Chinese as q wild man of the
woods, and lis possessors reap q rich har-
vest.
The priests. it seems, are adopts at the
art. When u Izidnaper, however, is caught
by the people, he is torn to pieces, and
when the authorities get him they torture
him and promptly behead him. Such is
life under the rule of the Son Of Heaven

How the Murderer Spends His Time III
Close Confinement.

How the Murderer spehus his AAAo ="
Close Confinement.
I have neen within ten feet OF Jesse
Pomeroy.
Immured deep in the vast gray walls OF
Charlestown penitentiary, the strange,
warped human being who once bore that
name is hidden away from the sight of
man forever in q living death, unknown
by the coming generation and forgotten by
the passing one.
He has u double cell, much larger than
the ordinary cell, into which the sunlight
streams. His room is neat, and he him
self is the very personitlcation of neatncss.
Upon this he pridcs himself. He wears a
beard which is kept neatly trimmed. He
changes tho style of it occasionally to suit
himself and displays as much taste and is
as well aware of what is becoming as the
most exquisite man of fashion.
"But is he wcll?" 1 asked of the one who
gave me this information, and one who
knows.
''As we'll as you are" was the reply,
"and he looks we'll"
"Pcople say man cannot live without
exercise. The only exercise he gets is in
his cell, walking up and down, yet no one
could possibly be healthier than he is. So
far as 1 know, he has never known sick
day, and he has been prisoner i'll abso-
lutely solitary confinement for 16 years.
He is a great reader and student. He
speaks three languages. He docs not want
to work, but prefers his books"
"Docs he seem to have any curiosity
about the outside world?" asked.
Eyes, I presume so, although he never
asks. He does not ask privileges. No
doubt he realizes it would be in vain. The
only favor he has asked of General Bridges
since he has been warden was permission
to keep the box his holiday things came in.
This favor had been granted him once be
fore and he used the cover to hide u hole
he had dug in the wall.
eff he gets penknifc or a spoon, the
probabilities are he will begin to dig. The
walls are so thick it is impossible for him
to escape and no doubt he docs it to make
the prison officials uneasy more than any
thing else. re is a remarkably good look
ing man, q fine looking man, in fact. IL
you should pass his cell, ignorant of his
name, you would comment upon his ap-
pearance and select him rs q man much
above the ordinary"
1t is said that either his hearing is super
naturally acute or else he is possessed of
some strange sixth sense, enabling him to
know things that have transpircd before
the guards themselves.
One instance of this is related. A couple
of years ago the prisoners were all assem-
bled in the chapel waiting the annual an
nounccment of the governors partlons.
Before the convicts' cheers which greeted
the lucky ones had died out Prison Physi-
clan Mclaughlin had occasion to attend a
prisoner located in the same tier as Pom
eroy AS the doctor passed Jcsse's cell he
called to the doctor, saying, $50 the gov
ernor has pardoned two men, and giving
their names The doctor has never been
able to understand how PCmeroy knew of
these names.
Not half a dozen people have seen him
since he was u boy and he has seen ne
womans face but his mothers since his
incarceration Post
