there is no doubt but that Judge Frank
B. Smith, of Mitchell, appointed to ill
the vacancy caused by the elevation OF
Judge Haney to the supreme bench,
will be the republican nominee of the
republican party for the judgeship OF
the fourth judicial circuit. AS we un-
derstand it he will have to overcome an
opposition majority of over 300 if he
succeeds, ,sand with his splendid record
as q judge and courteous treatment OF

Some funny circumstances occur al
the Milwaukee depot occasionally, as
the two passenger trains stand there
headed east ready to start on thei1
journey, and it seems nearly impossible
for travellers to make out which trair
goes east and which south. Yesterday
as the east train pulled out travelling
man saw it go and thinking sure it wat
his train grabbed his grip and ran the
full length of the platform, shouting
for room to get on. He got on and rode
short distance down the track wber
he was seen to get off and walk slowly
back to tho depot. He was going tt
Armour and his train didn't leave fol
Is minutes afterwards. For the in
formation of those who do not know
! different we will say that the south o.
Sioux City train stands next to the
depot and leaves at 11:30. The cas-
, train stands south on the opposite tract
and leaves at l1:l5.
