JENKINS AND DIETRICH.

The next matter OF a pOntlcal
nature that the voters of Bayfield,
county will have to decide is as to
whether they will send a political
delegation to the Congressional con-
vention for Mr.. Jenkins, the present
able representative, or for Mr.. Die
trich, practically new and untried
man Mr. Jenkins stands as a can
didate for denomination, with the
endorsement of nearly every news
paper in the Congressional district,
and as the choice of most of the
leading republicans of the different
counties. Mr.. Dietrich, it is claim
ed, secured the delegation from
Douglas county, in a scandalous
manner. But that is not the ques
tion-what remains to be seen
is whether Mr.. Jenkins or Mr. Del
trich is the choice Of the district.
Mr.. Jenkins has the advantag OF
long experience and training. He
is standing on his record and is
leaving the campaign to the people
of the district. MIR. DIETRICH is
going into the wards and the pre-
cincts. and is making a vigorous
campaign While Mr.. DIETRICH is no
doubt an excellent gentlemen the
voters of this district are hardly
ready to accept him as their candi
date, especially inas.nuch as it was
only four years since he was an
avowed democrat, and less than
that, according to the best accounts,
since he bid farewell to the party.
Besides this the greediness of the
republicans of Superior is too much
for US common mortals to stand for.
Mr.. Jenkins has ever been faithful
to Superior's interests, and they
e always for him until convention
time. Then they invariably have a
candidate Superior is always ask
ing something, but never willing to
concede anything. Their motto
appears to be, Superior first-the
rest of the district be id" Per-
sonaIly their candidate may be all
right, but politically he won't do.
When this district makes a change
in their representative it should be
seen to that he does not come from
Superior. Those people up there
ought to be taught that the tenth
congressional district is not entirely
confined 20 Douglas county.
THERE ought to be a lesson in the
result of Monday nights caucuses for
some of our politicians If a dis
position had been exhibited to har-
monte and let the different elements
of the party have something to say,
instead of trying to ''bull'' taings
through and turn down a respect
able number of party represen-
tatives, things might have been
different But the man who goes
around as Mr.. Alvord and his fac
tion did, with knives continually
sticking out of their boots, will
learn that their work is coarse and
will hardly do. Their overwhelm-
ing defeat was to be expected
ALL these different reports from
China keep people busy guessing
whether everyone is dead or most
of them living. It's very much of a
question where we are at great
portion of the time But living or
dead the American nation and the
other powers have suffered enough
at the hands Of the Mongolians to
make a severe accounting for an
absolute necessity.

mile with comfort Mr.. Smith pro-
poses to start crusade against these
boars in few days and expects to get
much sport from the hunt. A pack of
dogs will be required to start the
beasts from their lairs and bring them
to the open, where they may be shot.
This means the sacrifice of many of
the dogs, as when cornered one of these
boars will make short work of his an
tagonist. Some of the boars are very
large and have great tusks. which
would rip open hound. The intention
is to employ eight or ten men who are
familiar with the marshes and haunts
of the hogs. With these Mr.. Smith and
some of his friends, all armed with ri
fes and shotguns, will await the ap-
pearance of the hogs in the thorough
fares and shoot them down. To COM
plete their determination will require
a week or more. as they are roaming
over hundreds of acres of marsh and
thicket.

Substances In the Nose.

A kernel of corn, or a pea or other
small substance gets into a childs
nose, and the problem is to remove 1t.
We would suggest the following meth
cd as efectual in accomplishing the
object desired: Inject into the free
nostril with common syringe a
stream of tepid water. The sides OF
the nostril should be closed around
the point of the syringe to prevent a
reflux of the water. Use a moderate
degree of force and the stream will
make a circuit drought the posterior
nasal cavity, and pass out of the oppo-
site nostril, .dislodging the foreign sub
stance. A more simple method is this:
The patient takes a deep breath. /"
then closes the mouth and the free
nostril and forces his breath through
the INSTRUCTED. nostril. If the child is
old enough to do it perfectly he may
blow out the corn or pea or whatever
has found Judgment in the nasal pas
sage.

MANY TRICKS

Worked by the Thirty to Get Their
Drinks Free.
There is a man in town who has
taken drink at the expense of 50 or
more saloon-keepers in the city, Here
is his scheme: He dresses like a team
ster and carries a long whip in his
hand Walking up to bar of a saloon
ne says: please pour me a drink Of
whisky. l have a team out here I've
got to watch" While the unsuspect-
ing bartender pours out the drink the
man rushes TO the door and shouts
"woah" in a loud voice Then he runs
back to the bar gulps down the whisky
and runs to the door again shouting
"woah" in a loud voice He stands in
the doorway a minute and then goes
cut quickly. The bartender waits until
he thinks the man has had plenty of
time to take care of The horses. Then
he goes out to see what has happened
to the teamster. Certainly the team
ster is gone. Here is another scheme
that a thirsty man is working with
great success: Coatless and hatless he
rushes into a saloon and orders a drink.
"Will you please call up John Jones by
telephone for me?" says he. while
pouring out the drink If the bar
tender is an accommodating man he
goes to the telephone, and while he Is
searching the directory for John Jones'
telephone the coatless man takes his
drink and quickly leaves the saloon.
There is another man in town getting
drunk by the aid of scheme quite as
novel This man wears a silk hat and
carries a small valise. After taking a
drink he reaches into his pocket for
the money He always stands near a
cuspidor and. removing his hand from
his pocket. he drops something into
the cuspidor. 1t sounds like the clang
of money. He insists that he has
dropped a quarter. and rather than
empty the cuspidor the bartender gives
him change for a quarter When the
porter comes to clean the cuspidor he
only finds a ten-penny nail.-Kansas

him for short time only, however,
for the courts ruled that the father
should have the care of him.
In little more than year from this
time Mrs. Blackstone married Samuel
S. Sondheim, a New York cotton bro
ker, but her life with him was not hap
py, and in 1881 she quietly disappear
ed; he in due time obtained a divorce
and married again.
When next heard from she was in
Paris, where she lived for fifteen years.
She had taken the name of Mme
Blackstone, had fitted up a studio and
made some little Roadway in painting.
Her charm was felt in Paris, as it
had been in New York, and she was
surrounded by host of admirers; ar
lists, authors and several lesser
princes. But it was artificial to her;
she yearned for the boy she had
brought into the world, and she began
to miss the love of the man who had
first asked her to be his wife. After
many years she returned to this coun-
try and began painting in studio in
New York.
She found her son an upper-classman
at Yale. He came to see her, and for
the first time he learned the depths
of a mothers love. He became bond
between his mother and father, and
gradually, but with never-failing trend,
these two, so long separated, were
drawn together.
James Blackstone had also married
again, but his second wife died, and
he was free to marry the woman whom
he had first chosen. Accordingly, in
1897. they were married again in
Philadelphia. with their son and a few
close friends present. The old home in
Norwich was happy again.
But again fate stepped in and robbed
her of the happiness which had been
lacking for so many years. After less
than a year of the most felicitous life
James Blackstone died. leaving his
property to his son and grandson,
thinfinS that between them his widow
would be provided for. His estate,
which at one time had been of great
value had dwindled to barely enough
to support one person.
Then this woman, who had already
suffered her just proportion Of sorrows.
was spurned by her son.
Into the courts of law she was
obliged to go to demand enough of
a competence from her son to allow
her to live in comfort. Twenty-Five
dollars a week was all she asked, but
