A DAKOTA BOOMER.

I met the man in Omaha who boomed Palestine Citv, JU’ak., and as I had been out there and fomnd it a tract of land without a house or an inhabitant, I weu. naturally anxious for further particular*. 1 had received 01.* of his ciuculars, ■ and asked him: ‘You spoke of six railroads as certain to come to the place. What is to bring them?’ ‘Geographical situation, sir. I couldn’t see how they could possibly get by the town. I had the finest bed of gravel you ever saw, and railroads always want gravelI put the number at aix, but that was a low estimate.’ ‘ln speaking of the climate vou say a man could go m his shirt sleeves m January.’ ‘So he could—did it myself; it would have been more comfortable with two overcoats on, but I was exparimenting with the climate.’ “You said you gathered strawberries in Decemb3r.’ ‘Exactly. The were in a can, but I forgot to state that fact, I write very carelessly when in a hurry.* ‘And you say that plowing was going on all winter. ’ ‘So it was. Did I state the sort of plowing?* ‘I think net’ ‘Very careless in me, sir. We begin snow-plowixg in November and keep it «p until April. *[ am always cheerfully willing to explain these little matters.’ ‘You had 1,000 inhabitants, and were to have five times that in a yuar.’ ‘Certainly. Had a very large Indian cauip there at the time. An Indian is an inhabitant, I suppose. The laborers employed on the six railroads would have made up the remainder. It is a Very low estimate * ‘How about coal being found on the ground?’ 'I found it, sir. I scattered 200 pounds of it around there, and most of it can be found yet.’ ‘And you stated that the thermometer did not go below 35 degrees aoave zero?’ ‘Fact, sir. I was there for several weeks in July and August, and san assure you that I did not exaggerate in the least.’ ‘1 did not see anything of your gas and water works. ’ ‘No, sir. In shipping them from the east there was some mistake, and they went on to some town in Arizona. Annoyed me very much, 1 can assure you, but mistakes often happen in a new country.’ ‘if 1 remember right, the town had two banks, three ehnrches, a good school, theater, a fire department, police force and a $20,000 courthouse.’

‘Exactly, sir. The statement was a little premature, bat made in all candor ’ ‘And your terms were only S3O a lot, business or resident.’ ‘Only S3O, sir; which you must adn it was wonderfully cheap. Nothing like it ever offered the great American public. I sold over 900, sir.’ ‘But what was the matter with the town?’ ‘Circumstances, sir. it was suddenly discovered that my title to the land was defective—in fact, that I had no title. Very annoying, I assure vou. But for that 1 might have sold 2,000 lots. Great draw back to me, sir.’ ‘But what cf the 900 purchasers of lots?’ feel for them, sir—feel] for them, but this is a world of disappointments. 1 may found another town further west, and if 1 do my first move will be to sell every one of the 900 a $?00 lot for SIOO. Til be glad to do it, sits—very glad. Good day, sir.’ —New York Sun. The Kentucky Democratic State convention in session at Frankfort, on Tursday last, enthusiastically endorsed ex-President Cleveland and Tariff Reform. The Democrats of Rochester elected the marshal and clerk last Monday. Usual Republican m& jority about 75. In many town and municipal elections throughout the State this week the Democrats have made substantial gains. Lafayette changed from Republican to Democratic; Richmond and Koko mo, two Republican strongholds, elected Democratic mayor.

f Mary had a little lamb, its fleece | was white as snow, it strayed away j one summer where lambs should never go. Then Mary sat Uer down and tears! streamed from her pretty eyes; she never foand the lamb, because she didn’t advertise. And Mary had a brother John, who kept a village store, and he sat down and smoked his pipe and watched the open door. And axl the people passed along but did not stop to buy, while John sat down and smoked his pipe and blinked his sleepy eyes. And so the sheriff closed him out but still ho lingered near; and Mary came to drop with him a sympathetic tear. “How is it sister that those other merchants here, sell all the goods and pay the bills and thrivs foorn year to year?” Remembering now her own had luck, the little maid replies: Those other fellows get there, John, because they advertise ” Jones & Rouse, Rochester, N. Y., have appointed John A. Randle, of this place, agent to sell their nursery goods iu this locality. Call on him and see wha< he can do for you.

There is a good deal of talk nowadays about the strength of paper. We •re told that a Bank of England note properly twisted into a rope will sustain 321) pounds. We shall next hear that our millionaires have had fire-es-cape ladders made of this material. We, of course, refer to the fires of thin world. There is butone thing more to be done, and then we rich people can sleep the sleep of innocence at night undisturbed by alarms, and that is to make paper money which will be burglar-proof so well as fireproof. Oam and effect cm not well balanced. A man with a good causa often make little or no eflboh
