THE SWIMMING PLACE. I passed today the little pond. Shut in by woodlands dim, Where oft, of youthful pastime fond. We boys weut in to swim. The sheltered cove, the sanely beach.

The rocky point below. The shallow water's tranquil reach Whens stiU the lilies grow The prray old willows yet survive, the pool And rock from which we used to dive luto the waters cool. Each daring youth with joyous shout breasted cloft the wavo As lithesome as Iho sportive That in these waters lavu. And I bow it. fared, Oni! pleasant summer day, a boMly veuturusoine wo dared 'I'o cross the narrow bay Above tin: waters dark and dci-p.

i ft-ar we dared not show. That i i and a i might Far in i depths In-low How childish now those terrors seem: But are wu wiser grown. Who dread to cross death's silent stream For fear of ills How bright tlie i i wavelets ran, How frt-sh the breezes bleu 1 Ere yet the cares thai come to man U'er us i shadow Now ufi. besidt: the little lake 1 sit and ponder lone, And listen ax the wavelets break In mournful monotone. And call to mind the joyous train With whom 1 used to play; A few fond, faithful hearts remain, Some wander far away And memory's eyes are dim i tears As each loved name is told, O'er whose fair boyish head for years The waves of death have rolled.

Who on life's sea, with strength, Swam forth in ardor brave, With a i and failing stroke at length To sink beneath the wave.

We, the undersigned citizens of South Dakota, believing in the prin- ciples embodied in the Declaration of Independence that ''All are born equal, endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights that "to secure these rights" governments exist," and that "they derive all their jnst powers from the consent of the governed," and recognizing the fact, that up to the present t.ime, these "self evident truths" have been over- looked in their application to women of Dakota in denying them the right to the elective franchise; i we rejoice that, the convention called to frame a constitution for the gov- ernment of this new State, recog- nized the importance of this great question and provided for its sub- mission to the people at the next general election. The issue is be- fore us and Nolens, Volens, we must meet it. The time is brief and we i must haste.

We therefore call upon all friends of equality and justice to meet in the city of Huron, Monday i afternoon at 2 p. Oct. 21, 1889. Let us come together and plan wisely for the campaign ihat is al ready upon us.

The plant stands just inside the entrance of the pahu house, and it attracted the atten- tion of all the visitors to the conser- vatories.

The "love tree," or philodendron diJiciosa, is a tropical plant, its clime being Brazil. Us usual growing places are on rocks, and as a wall against a house it develops rap- 'dry. The leaves are large and pe- oouni'ly shaped, having deep incis- ions, i i i them into manv elongated false leaves. The blossoms I resemble the of calla lily in i color and sixe. and it combines in its fragrance all the delicious of the entire flora.

A visitor to Japan tells of the pec a- liar method of construction employed in that, "Speaking of building, the Japanese begin their work at the top. The roof goes on tirst, and then they begin to build the walls and to construct the interior. One of the greatest curiosities to me iu Tokio is a new hotel which is being built. It is to be on the foreign style, and is to have four stories, it i be the greatest hotel in Japan. It covers about an acre of ground.

As yet not a stone of the foundation has been laid, but the roof is already up, and this stands on a great four story skele- ton of scaffolding, awaiting the i ing of the rest of the structure. This scoffolding is made of long poles, from the sixe and thickness of a cam- paign down to the size of a baniooo fishing? rod, and the whole is tied together with ropes. Imagine an acre of scaffolding of this nature up- holding a heavy roof, and the whole made up of sticks and ordinary rope. There are, 1 was told at the oilice, 7,000 poles in that skeleton, and 2,000 men had been at work for months makinr it." i a tlntv a Can Sleep.

Every one knows that a genu- I me, a a negro can sleep on a board with his face to the sun and i covering for his eves on the hottest day--and he" sleeps as peacefully as a i man on the soft- est cot and in the darkest room.

A A NO SUBSTITUTE FOR IT WHICH 1 WAS The Young Turned Out to Amuoy Deacon, but Led Them in Prayer. It was not very long ago that it Maine man fired his shotgun into a calithumpian crowd that serenaded him, with disastrous results. An Ox- ford county deacon who was annoyed in a similar way hit upon a vastlv bet- ter method of routing the invaders of his peace. He lost his first wife, with whom he had lived fifty years, and in time took another bride to solace his declining days. Such a proceeding, though warranted both by Holy Writ and human precedent, caused consid- erable talk in the neighborhood on ac- count of the deacon's advanced age, and some of the young people propos- ed to give the couple an old fashioned serenade.

So they gathered a large and noisy crowd together, equipped themselves with a circular saw, a i chime of cow bells and a band of horns, and set up a i din in front of the. deacon's house several hours after the old gentleman and his bride had retired. The first alarm brought the deacon to the door. The spectators expected a storm of righte- ous wrath to burst upon their heads and were prepared to meet it with a tempest of saw, horn and cowbell. "Gentlemen," said a i voice, "won't you come iu?" A hush fell upon the crowd they stared in silent wonder at each other.

That couldn't be the deacon. They drew nearer and took a better look at the figure standing in the door- way. Yes, they could plainly see by the candle which he held that it was the deacon. and 1 would be pleased to have you come in," he said agpj-n. Disconcerted, but unable to resist the i i a i they filed into the house.

The deacon and his wife provided chairs, and they all sat down. Then the good old man took the a i Bi- ble from shelf and read a passage of i in a clear voice, liavino- finished chapter he closed good book, and said "Let us pray."
