TO THE STATE CONVENTIONS
BLACK HILLS DELEGATES PASS
THROUGH THE CITY.
HAVE SPECIAL TRAIN TO NORFOLK
Both the Republican and Democratic
State Conventions Of South Dakota
TO be Held Tomorrow, One at Sioux
Falls and the Other at Yankton.


4 special train carrying 1870 dele.
gates from Butte, Lawrence, Mead,
Pennington, Custer and Fail River
counties, the Black Hills counties Of
South Dakota, passed through the city
yesterday, onrouto to Sioux Falls and
YauktOn, whore the republican and
democratic state conventions will be
held tomorrow At Norfolk the four
sleepors were attached to the regular
Sioux City train. with the party was
Congressman Il. w. Martin, who is n
candidate for United States senator,
but who, 1t Is thought, will withdraw
from the race when II is found that
the insurgents" or anti-machne men,
have control of the convention,
Delegations to the two conventions
from Gregory county, S, d., came down
as far as Niobrara this morning, and
will take the train from Running Wa
ter to Sioux Falls and Yankton. The
republicans of Gregory county have
contesting delegations to the Sioux
Falls convention.
kota law, all state conventions must
be held on the same day, hence the
two conventions tomorrow.
In the republican ranks there has
been a general overturning Of condi.
tions in the past two years, and what
has been known as the machine has
met with an almost complete over
throw at the primaries. The conven-
tion will consist of 1869 delegates and
it is estimated that the insurgents will
have 900 of these, so there Is but little
hope for the machine men.
Democratic Convention.
There will be less war at Yankton,
not so much interest being taken In
the nominations for the reason that
unless the democrats receive assist
ance from the machine men who will
lose at Sioux Falls, there Is little pros
pect of those honored receiving fur
ther preferment at the hands of the
voters. The republicans are the dom
| inant party in the state and unless
there should be a genuine split, the
| democrats have no hope of election.
| The following names are the ones that
will probably be placed in the demo-
cratic ticket, but this slate may be
materially changed before tomorrow:
For United States senator
E. s. Johnson, Rapid City.
For governor
j. A. Stransky, Pulwana.
For congress
S. V. Arnold, Ipswich.

KNOLL BEHAVES Q|JEERLY
NORFOLK MERCHANT LOCKS UP
AND GOES TO BED.
WAS WITHOUT FOOD THREE DAYS
Mystery Has Been in the Acting Of
Knoll Since Last Saturday-PolicC
Forced Him to Eat One Meal-Not
In His Room Today
tFrom Fridays Dally.1


There has been mystery in the man.
ner and action of Thomas Knoll, pro.
prietor of a bakery in the Schoregge
building on Norfolk avenue between
Second and Third streets, for the past
week. Just what Is the trouble seems
to be a problem yet unsolved by neigh
bors of the man or by the police.
Knoll's store has been locked since
last Saturday and Knoll has, for a
part of the time, been in bed in the
apartment above the store, where he
has secreted himself, and for a part
of the time he has gone without food.
This morning when an investigation
was made into the rooms, to see what
had become of the man, it was found
that he had disappeared
Between Saturday and Monday, or
for almost four days, Mr. Knoll is said
to have lain in bed without touching
a morsel of food. On Monday friends
in the neighborhood became alarmed
and asked the police to look into the
mystery, as his store had been locked
up and deserted by him since Satur-
day, when he was last seen on the
street The police found Mr.. Knoll
in bed and compelled him to dress
and get breakfast. Then he returned,
presumably, and again shut himself
up.
Asked for an explanation, he Is said
to have declared that he has had sim
liar spells before.
This morning Mr.. Schorregge, own
er of the building, went into Knoll's
apartment above the store and found
the bed empty. Knoll was seen at
about o'clock yesterday morning
around the store, by people in the vi
cinity.
Knoll came to Norfolk about year
ago from Creighton. He bought the
residence property of l.. c. Bargelt,
corner Ninth street and Madison av.
enue, and later started little store
in the building vacated by Lewis Bros

THE CHANGING TIDES.
curious Facts About the Ehb and Flow
of the Waters.

To the ordinary landsman the
tides along the coast are most puz-
cling. He has been taught that the
tides rise and fall twice in the TWEEN
ty-four hours and that this depends
in some mysterious way upon the
moon, but when it occurs that in
his travels he sees a spot along the
shore where there is no tide at all
he is at loss to explain this phe-
nomenon.
To be quite exact, there is only
one ocean in the world where the
tides follow the moon with absolute
regularity. This is the great Ant
arctic basin, and the reason is that
there, and there only, is to be found
sweep of water which is entirely
uninterrupted by land. The enor-
nous wave raised by the moons at
traction courses around the world
south of Cape Horn and the Cape of
Good Hope with absolutely nothing
to break it. Here in our northern
hemisphere great masses of land in
terrupt the tidal waves and, COM
bined with the shallowness Of the in
land seas, cause them to perform
antics which seem most strange.
The depth of the water has much
to do with tidal irregularities. Out
in the open ocean, where the tide is
abysmal-that is, about 5000 faith
oms--the speed of the waves is
amazing. Where the depth decreases
to five fathoms the tide cannot tray
ell more than fifteen miles an hour.
In England, for example, which is
surrounded by narrow, land broken
seas, the result is that they get some
of the most terrible and dangerous
tidal races and currents to be found
anywhere in the world. The most
formidable of these is the whirlpool
between the islands of Jura and
Scarba, on the west coast of Scot
land. This is known as ''the Cal
dron of the Spotted Seas" Here is
a race running at a speed to be
matched only by a mountain tor
rent. The force Of a heavy tidal
current pushing up wide mouthed
river causes what is termed a "bore."
The most striking example of this
tidal feature is seen on the Amazon,
a moving wall of water thirty feet
in height and reaching from bank
to bank rushing inland from the
ocean.

RIcH SON WORKS HARD.

CHICAGO. III, Aug. 27.-Car-ying his dinner pail, working the same hours and taking pot luck with thou sands of other laborers, Chauncey B Mccormick, son of William G. McCor. mick, of Cloverdale, Eutaw Place, Bal timore is earning his way at the Nc. Corrnick Harvester Works here. The young man will inherit millions, but said he wanted to see by actual con- tact "how the other half" lives.
 He lives in Hull House, the famous settlement, in the very center of the city's most scualid and congested dis trict. His evenings are spent in study, and he has no recreation. All of his spare time is Is spent with his fellow workers, who not know his real identity. The men were suspicious of him at first, because of his white hands and his education, but he made good in his work, and now they are fond of him. He regrets that he must SO back to college for another year.
