Trie Judical Gonvention. The delegates from Marshall and Fulton counties to the democratic judicial convention met in Plymouth today to nominate cs ndidates for judge and prosecuting attorney, but among .the' delegates and other prominent democrats present, the office of prosecutor was not mentioned in the .discussions on the streets. The candidates talked of were Martindale and Kelhson of Marshall and Myers, Buchanan and Bernetha of Fulton. The convention was called to order at 1:30 p. ra., by II. A. Logan, chairman of Marshall county. There being no contests in the delegations, Adolph Biccard, of Fulton county, was chosen permanent, chairman and Charles "Walker, ofTippecanoe township, permanent secretary, with the representatives of the Rochester Sentinel and Plymouth Democrat as assistant secretaries. Mr. Biccard on taking the chair thanked the convention for the honor conferred upon him, and said he would try and be impartial because he had always believed a judge should be chosen not only for the work he had done as a politician but because of his ability fairness and honesty. Peter Kruyer was made chairman of the Marshall county delegation and and Mr. Wagoner chairman of Fulton county. The first ballot was then taken as follows. Kellison, 17; Martindale, 17; Myers, 12; Buchanan, 10; Bernetha ,1. The total number of votes cast was 57. Fulton county having 23 delegates and Marshall 34. There was no choice as it requires 29 votes to nominate and the real work of the convention then began.

On the third ballot Fulton county gave narry Bernetha 17 votes and on the 9th ballot the vote stood. Martin dale, 17; Kellison, 17; Bernetha, 23. Fulton county gave Bernetha its solid vote. The Farm Better Than the City. The Chicago Record-Herald deplores that the annual increase of the popu lation of that city embraces several thousand young men from the farms who are the victims of the notion that opportunity awaits them in the cities alone. It is true that this opinion on tne part or so many young men in a delusion, but . the young men them selves are not responsible for it. They read of this or that man who has risen to some distinction in commercial pro fessional or political life that he 'was raised on a farm." This is said so frequently that, very naturally, the young man on the farm comes to be lieve that success awaits him in the cities. In the illusion produced by the glowing stories of the few the young man loses sight of the failure or the oblivion of the many who go to the cities and are thereafter rarely ever heard of. The nine-tenths find that tiey must struggle in a crowded labor market and accept wages that will not secure them the good living of the farm. If they marry Uiey must, for the most part, live in crowd ed tenement houses if they go to the largest cities. If a man is more successful he cannot hope for the larger success of which he has read and which has led him to the city. So if all who go to the cities from the. farm would tell, the plain truth about the matter they would confess that they would be better back on the farms if they could rent and till a small piece of land. Indianapolis Journal. New Montana Cave. A remarkable natural cave has been discovered in Montana, about fifty miles east of Butte. A large river with a cataract ,Z about 100 feet was explored for a distance of several miles without discovering its source or outlet. A few . articles of- stone and copper utensils and some bones, believed to be human bones, were also discovered In of the large apartments explored. There were other evidences that at some time In a prehistoric period the cave was used as a habitation. The Dresent entrance to the cave was made by some lime quarrymen at a point 1,600 feet above the bed of . the Jefferson river while engaged in blasting rock. The formations of stalactite and other natural decorations throughout the cave are pronounced the most beautiful and yarled ever seen. Thompson Stands Mute. Charles D.

Thundtr Mountain Not a Volcano. During the storms of last week all the people fled from the vicinity of Thunder Mountain in northern Wis

consin believing that a great volcanic; eruption vss about to take place, ltj seems now that tne awe inspiring ex-: hibiiions were caused by electricity, j John L. Gates of Milwaukee, known j as the father of Gates county and one i of the biggest land owners io Wiscon- j sin. was. one of a party of campers near the mountain, when a severe thunder storm came up last Saturday night. He says: "1 thought surely ; that my time had come. Had 1 not been somewhat familiar with the conditions I should also have been under the impression that an eruption was cf people residing within a radius of ' from twenty to thirty-five miles. j "The range of mountains contains vast deposits of iron and copper ore and other metallic deposits. Thunder mountain especiallyj and the action of the lightning on the magnetic rocks is something awe-inspiring. Then from a distance it closely resembles a volcano in process of eruption, but it is caused by the lightning. The flashes come too rapidly to be counted, and cause volumes of smoke to rise to a height of 2,000 feet or more, but the most peculiar thing is that lightning never strikes the mountain. The iron and copper deposits in the range extend for from fifty to sixty miles, and an electrical storm like that of Saturday will cause an illumination that can be plainly seen for many miles." Michigan's Marriage Laws. Religious bodies throughout Michigan have begun to pass resolutions denouncing the easv marriage laws of the state and demanding more strict license regulations. They did this same thing two years ago flooded the legislature with their petitions. A delegation of business men, preachers, gamblers, street peddlers, saloon keepers, justices of the peac and senators and repesentatives, queer -combinatious, from St. Joseph and Benton narbor, went to Lansing, however, and seemed to have a great deal more influence than all the rest of the state, for the laws were unchanged.
