Because we mentioned in last
week S issue that Ihos, Butler was an
independent candidate for district at
torney it has been reported that we
were supporting him. We did no
more for Mr.. Butler than we did for
the entire Democratic ticket. That
we announced his candidacy is no more
of All indication that. we support him
than our announcing the Democratic
ticket is an Indication OF our support
ing it In our issue after the Republic
can convention we gave the whole Re-
publican ticket including Mr.. San
born, our cordial approval, and indica-
ted our purpose to support it and the
fact that our Democratic friends have
recognized the wisdom of our choice
as well as Mr.. Sanborn's ability and
fitness for the office, and endorsed
him. is no reason why we, or any 9TH
Ell E.. publican. should fail to support
him now. The two candidates are
both SO we'll known throughout the
county THAT no comparison between
them is needed. We believe that Mr..
Sanborn is the man for the position
and that he should receive the sup
port Of our citizens generally. no mat
ter what may he their politics. We
have been informed THAT MIR. Butler
has some following i'll some parts
of the county, but we believe that
when the people come to think the
matter over and realize the RESPONSE
bilities OF the Office, that they will
vote the straight ticket and elect a
man that is fully qualified to fill the
office by putting |, cross after
the name OF G.. r. Sanhorn. Al
though we are not supporting Mr..
Butler and urge our friends to vote
for his opponent, we think that he is
entitled to fair treatment at the hands
of the papers Of the county, and for
that reason announced his candidacy
last week, and at the request Of his
friends publish Il short biographical
sketch in this issue.

AID carly in life began his active ca
reer as q laborer in the saw mills along
the Central. Later, he engaged in the
insurance business at Dorchester and
made a marked success. With one ex-
ceptiQn he wrote policies aggregating
in amount more than any Wisconsin
agent. He is at present engaged in
that business. and is also cashier of the
bank ct Phillips. His personal ac-
quaintance and stability made him an
available nominee, and where he is
best known his vote Will be the lar
gest. He is making an excellent and
a clean canvass, and will be elected by
larger vote than the twelve counties
comprising the district have ever Civ
en- to any candidate. His long expert
ence in business and his well estab-
lished knowledge of every county in
the district and it's needs in legislation
will make him an especially valuable
Senator.

CUBAN RED CROSS.
Mass Meeting of Citizens Called

There will be mass meeting of la
dies and gentlemen of Worthington,
in the Presbyterian church, Monday
evening, August 18th for the purpose
of arranging for popular outdoor
social, including music, speeches and
refreshments, the proceeds of which
to go for the aid of sick and wounded
Cuban soldiers. 1t is proposed to
have the fete on the Court House
grounds if the same can be procured,
to take place as soon as possible. A
preliminary meeting was held last
Monday evening by a number of our
business men and the clergy, and it
was thought proper that::a general
meeting be called as above. Alllwho
desire to take part in this noble cause
are cordially invited to be present next
Monday evening at 8 o'clock. Aside
from the charitable and human object
of this demonstration and general
good time may be confidently expect
ed by this proposed social outdoor
fete participated in by the people
without respect to color, creed, age,
sex, political affiliation or previous
condition or servitude.
1t is reported by the Cuban Army
Sanitary Corps of New York that the
Spanish authorities will not permit
the International Red Gross Society
to administer to the sufferings of the
Cuban patriot soldiers and hence
they appeal to the generosity of lib
erty loving Americans to assist them
in prosecuting the work of relief.

That tsBlack Diamond" (?)

So many have made inquiries
about a peculiar stone which havein
my possession and which I found at
Ash Greek, MINI. >, about three months
ago that I think it my duty to give a
description of the same. The stone is
black in color and symmetrical in form.
1t is the form of a globe fattened
at the poles like the earth is. It's
polar diameter is one inch. Its equa-
torial diameter is one and one fourth
inches. It is very hard and cuts glass
like diamond. When found it was
wartly encased in sand and cement
which was removed from the surface
only with the greatest difficulty. In
removing the easement it was found
that the hardest file wouldrot effect
its surface. It was effected only a
little whenopressed very harasagainst
the surface of a rapidly revolving
emery wheel. It takes on brilliant
gloss when rubbed for long time
on woolen goods. It is not porous
like most aerolite formations but of
the closest texture. Several men who
seem to think they know something
about the matter have with more or
less assurance pronounced it ''Black
Diamond" One person expresses the
opinion that it is an "Aerolite" [
know nothing either as to what is the
name of the material of which it is
composed or the value of the same.
have written to Prof. Winchen Of
the University of Minnesota about it
and hope to be able to know before
long what is the propername by which
it should be called.

There is in this hospital a training
school for nurses, the object of
which is to fit young men and wo-
men for the profession of nursing.
They not only become familiar
with the care of the insane, but
are: trained in general nursing as
we'll, so that after taking years
course and graduating, they will
be competent to do any kind of
nursing and will be much better
trained than the graduate of a gen.
eral hospital, because the training
in the care of the insane teaches
them to think and act for the pat
lent as we'll as to wait upon him.
The course of study is graded
and extent over two years, consist
ing of lectures and practical in
structions of all the details of the
care of the sick and insane.
Young mon and women taking
this two years of training receive
an n5amount of culture, independent
Of their training as nurses, which
will fit them for any occupation
they may chose to take up after
graduation, and it has the great
advantage of teaching them to be
orderly, methodical and accurate
besides developing in them the
power and of self-control.
During their undergraduate
term of service, men are paid $18.
during the first month and this
Is gradually increased according to
merit until after six months they
are paid $25.00. Graduates may
for good and extend service be paid
$500 per month. Women are
paid $1,000 the first month to be
gradually increased tc $500 after
sixsmonths. Graduates may be paid
$28.00. Board, lodging and wash

ali applicants should be from
Is to 20 years of age, free from dis
ease or deformity, and they are ex-
pected to enter for the full course
of instruction. Applicants on be-
ing accepted will be expected to
serve two months on probation,
after which, if their service has
satisfactory, they will on agreeing
to remain for the full course of
instruction be accepted as pupil
nurses. Pupils may enter the
school at any time.

.urday evening at G.. A. R.shalI. The
hall was we'll filed, there being some
free silverites present, who are about
to Join forces with the grand old

vance, secretaries. The chair was
then delegated to appoint commit
tee of three on plans and scope of
the club. G. M. Crandall, Geo. D.
Dayton and Ray Humiston were ap-
pointed. While this committee were
in session, A. G.: Clausen was called
on for few remarks on the question
of the day. He delivered a number
of facts and figures substantiated by
history as to the demoralizing effects
of the free and unlimited coinage of
silver upon our country. The CON-
mittee reported as follows. Proceed

very large number for the short
space of time in which plans for or
ganization was started, and shows the
prevailing spirit of our citizens. That

deavoring by their influence and
labor to sustain the reputation of the
government at home and abroad as
we'll as their individual interests.
The membership of the club will re-

MORE WE'LL AND WATER.
Work on the Artesian Well to
be Resumed at Once.


J. T. Mccarthy. of Minneapolis, ar
rived here Tuesday with his we'll
drilling outfit to resume operations in
the we'll that he left some time ago.
He conferred with the members of
the village council and Tuesday even
ing special meeting was held for
considering his propositions.
It was deemed advisable to proceed
with the work under provisions that
would protect the village. The mat
ter was left with Attorney Town to
draft the necessary contract for a
completion of the we'll, in which a
$1,000 bond was procured for the
proper carrying out of it's provisions.
Work will at once be commenced and
if possible to do so an artesian we'll
will be had. The work on the large
we'll has progressed quite rapidly; the
workmen are now down about twenty
five feet. Tuesday the water ran in
so fast they were obliged to suspend
operations until arrangements could
be made for pumping it out. We'd
nesday morning there was eleven feet
of water in the twelve-foot diameter
new we'll, which was pumped out and
digging resumed.

The Cigarette Habit.

The teacher of public school in
Chicago, found that eighty of her
scholars smoked from two to twenty ci-
garettes day. Six only of these boys
were able to do good work in their
classes. The victims of the cigarette
habit confessed that they were suffer
ing constantly from headache, drow-
siness and dizziness. Many declared
they could not write we'll because
their hand trembled. A number
were shaky when they walked, and
unable to run for any distance. They
could not rouse themselves to meet
the examination test. The teacher re
ported that they were sure to fail if
asked to memorize anything. Sever
al of the smokers we're from four to
five years old for their grade, and it
was found after they began to smoke
their progress ceased. Except in
three instances, the scholars hardest
to dicipline were smokers. Truancy
and theft were directly traced to in
diligence in the habit. Boys who
had reformed and joined the Anti
Cigarette Society said they felt like
different boys. The power and per-
niciousness of the cigarette habit are
revealed by this fresh testimoney

Boiling
Rive?


RlVeT small, but a mighty in
teresting stream for all
that. 1t issues from the sides of a
more or less and of almost any colors.
These gather themselves into pools and
lakelets on the mountains s side, cover
ing an area of about200 acres. Over
flowing their boundaries they slowly
trckle down the sides of the mountain
forming small cliffs, the most wonder
full in the world. From distance one
would hardly believe what the eyesight
reveals-white, black, orange, lemon,
terracotta, g.een, blue. led, pink, sep
crate and in manifold combinations
stand out before him. 1t is hill of
painted cliffs on the sides of the noun
tain that Iises high above. And the
odd part of it is that each of these ex-
Quisite colCrs represent different tenn
perature. Does that startle your cred
ulty? Even so it is true.
When throug with tn is beautiful paint
ing process, these waters again comes
together aud then, as if full of mischief
like pack OF small: boys trying to play
hide and seek, dive down and rem ain
under the ground for space of two
miles and then flow out from the mouth
of conyonita as one of the clearest,
most beautiful, green streams imagin-
able. Whereshese waters emerge from
the mountain into the little lakes they
are hot, boiling hot During several
hundred feet and also many degrees
of holiness, so that when they again
see Sc daylight they were much cooler.
This then is Boiling River: an under
ground mountain stream of hot water.
But you ask, where is it? Where
can see it? 1t is in Yellowstone Park
at Mammoth Hot Springs. 1t is one
of the lesser-mind you the lesser
wonders of this land of wonders, Go
there and see it by all means but first
send to Chas. S. Fee, General Pass
enger Agent, Northern Pacific Rail-
road, st. Paul Minn., six cents for
