PERKINS LATEST
i. RAISES A LAUGH
Calls Upon Governor Cummins to
Release Delegates from Their
Instructions.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The journal.
Sioux City, iowa, July 1o.-Altho
not invited to make further overtures
when he received negative reply to
his former proposal from Governor
Oummins, George D. Perkins has made
another offer, looking to a compromise
Of the bitter controversy over the NOM
nation for governor.
Mr.. Perkins says in his newspaper that
if Governor Oummins was in earnest in
saying he wants the majority unham-
pered at the state convention, then he
will aocede to the proposition to re-
lease from their Instructions the dele
cations bound to him, Perkins agreeing
to DO the same with his delegations.
The suggestion has created much
mirth among the Cun1mins men, who
have SS5 instructed delegates to Per-
kins' $50, tho pending contests may
greatly change these figures.
They declare the game is obvious
that having failed to get enough dele.
gates to win, Perkins Is after q chance
to do personal work with the dele
gates. p {s~s"a'
Ounmins men say the governor meant
what he said about the majority hav.
ing its will carried out, and ada that
he meant the majority of the voters
who named the delegates.

Special TO The journal.

Special to The journal. 800
Anamoose, N. D., July 10.-Conrad
Pfester was shot and killed in the
night a short distance from this place.
He had been in Anamoose and was
known to have had about $25. When
his body was found the money was miss-
ing. A bullet hole thru the body told
how Pfester met his death.
The mystery. surrounding the affair
was increased by Hammond Nielsen re.
porting that he had been fired upon
while passing the scene Of the killing
by SONG person in buggy. Nielsen
was on his way home, and arrived at
the place where Pfester was killed
about an hour after the crime is sup
posed to have been committed.
There is no clue to the person who
killed Pfester or the one who fired upon
Nielsen, and no motive is known for The
attempt upon the latter s life.
Pfester was a. Farmland about &c
years of age and bore an excellent repu
tation, being sober and Industrious and
SO far as known, without enemies.

Origin Of "Jesuits."

The members of, the Society Of Jesus
appear first to have been given their
familiar short name, "Jesuits," BY none
other than Calvin. Pope Sixtus ". at
tempted to change their name from
"Society of Jesus to ''Society Of Igna-
tius," after their founder, Ignatius'
Loyola, but the attempt miscarried,
and the Jesuits have never become
"Ignatians," after the model Of the
Franciscans, Dominicans and Benedic--
tines, although their enemies in Spain
used to call them "Inigisias' Qnigo be-
ing the Spanish original Of Loyola's
Christian name)., In France after their
expulsion in 1865 those who ventured
to remain temporarily called them
selves "F'athers of the Faith" or
CLERKS Of the Sacred Heart" London

The Daytime Nan.

Prolonged 'forty winks" during the
day are severely condemned by many
doctors on the ground that they affect
ones regular sleep. Scientists have
found that in the ordinary course in
the human being there is the greatest
vitality between 10 a. m. and 2 p. m.
and the least between 2 o'clock and 6
o'clock in the morning. Long sleeps
during the day interfere with this Or
der Of nature, sometimes causing head

only forty, proves refreshing to many
because it is too short to have any in

Letters and Pounds.

]. I believe the stolidity Of the English
character and its implicit acceptance
of authority are due in large measure
to the fact that long before it leaves
the spelling class it is ready to believe
anything. And this unquestio ning at
titude Of mind is only rendered the
more hopeless when it comes to learn
that in one case twelve ounces make q
pound, in another case it requires six
teen. Indeed, If we had set ourselves
deliberately to stamp out rational in-
stincts and the habit Of logical and
thoughtful inquiry in the child mind,
we probably could not have devised
two more fiendish instruments than
our scheme Of spelling on the one hand
and Of weights and measures on the
other. London Mail. s#gg, sssf$s

ORiEN AL CLUBS.
Why Almost Any Society For any
g8S Purpose Can Succeed. 8S I'M s

The oriental IS passionately fond Of
tub life, a;sfi, III ,.s smaller tie degree
Of personal liberty he enjoys IN ordi-
nary life the more intense Is his en-,
joymenta of membership In some brot..i-!
erhood. 1t does not make Very much
difference what tie nature Of the, club
may be; it is the mere Joy OF cl'as, life.
Irrespective Of obsect or principle.%that
appeals to him. Having once tasted
this JOY, he will do much rather than
forego a continuance Of It, Oriental
society is so constituted that the fans
lily of, clan Is the social unit and not
the Individual. Alnan cannotgbe alone
in his punishments, for they are also
visited in greater or less degree upon
his relatives as well. He cannot en-
joy or suffer alone Now, q club or So
ciety IS a much smaller organization
than society as whole, and the 1nds-
yidual forms q CORRESPONDENCE larger
fraction of it. This is an immense
stimulus to self esteem. The man be-
comes somebody. This explains why
almost any society, irrespective OF its
object, can instantly gather numer-
Gus and enthusiastic constituency, Any
man with little tact could so out on
the streets of Seoul and in twenty-four
hours establish society for the cult
walton Of mushrooms on matched roofs,
with president, vice president, secre.-
tary, treasurer and executive commit
tee complete and a membership list as
long as piece Of string, If not longer.
Why? Simply because membership in
"any old" society does just little to
lift a man out of the humdrum Of life.
