Three inches of snow fell in Dakota

William Klmnleh, who has been con
victed of murder, in New York, is to be

General Collixs, Chairman of the
democratic committee in Massachusetts
professes to see encouragement for h
party in the issue of constitutional prohi
bition in the old B ly State next fall. But
the independent democratic Bos'on lltr-
aid docs nor read the future by such en
oouraging signs. The Herald points
out to Gen. Collins that while there ate
republicans who may vote the prohibi
tion ticket it will need unforseen losses
on the part of the republicans and unfor
seen gains on the part of the democrats
to assure the state to the latter. General
Collins' present prediction, then, is sim
ply of the same piece as that -which he
made when presiding over the National
democratic convention in St. Louis a
year ago, that President Cleveland would
sweep the country and bo re-elected by
an overwhelming majority.
A very licht vote was cast in South
Dakota last Tuesday but the constitution
known as the Sioux Falls Constitution

Senator Siikkuan told a newspaper
reporter in London that "Robert Lincoln's
appointment was a better one . for the
country than for Mr. Lincoln." Senator
Sherman was never accused of adminis

a good opinion of Mr. Lincoln and does
not consider him a man without a future.
While the Samoa trouble has been
under consideration, the British govern
ment has seized the Suworrow group,
near the Cook Islands, over which si c
recently established a protectorate. As
Savage Island has also been annexed,
England has a circle of stations right
around the Samoan group, and can await
with comparative indifference the resul
of the Berlin Conference.
Gore IIouso, Old Kensington.
Always in literary annals the Goro will be
noted for Gore house, destroyed in clearing
the sito for Albert hall. It was for long a
literary center, whera the Countess of Bless
UJSton, and her stepson-in-law, Count d'Orsay,
the "Admirable- Crichton" of his period, kept
a hospitable table for Litterateurs and dandies,
and especially for those who affected to be
both ouo and the other. Louis Napoleon, the
future emperor, was for long years one of
tho iatimt3 cf Gore house, and when the
establishment finally collapsed in 1S49, Car
rie! by storm by importunate creditors, the
unfortunate pair, neither of whom was adap
ted to face tho stern realities of evil fortune,
fled to Paris, where their late guest, was now
assuming hLs role of "Saviour of Society."
Disappointment followed upon their hopes;
there was no share for them of the brightness
of the new empire, and tho latter days of the
chr.rming countess and tho most accomplished
of ti.i sidled soori came to an end in the night
of poverty and obscurity. Gore house then
became a restaurant for the exhibition of
1S51, when Alexis Soycr presided as "cordon
bleu." Ah! what was the Eceue in tho days
c-f tiiat great exhibition which brought all
the world to London and sent it rolling down
tho Gore? Before that date the background
of tho Gore was a maze of groves, and farms,
and market gardens. Farmers and market
jranleuers had their business about Earl's
court and Qhl Broaipton; plows creaked
slowly along where now dash the equipages
of the great, tho omnibus of tho multitude
and everybody's hansom. - With the exhi
bition began the great change which has
hereabouts almost swept away the landmarks
of Old Kensington- All the x ear Round.
Other cities and towns have been
calling u "Old sleepy Plattsmouth,"

fighting among themselves for the

er.couraze a few manufactures, she will
be the second city instead of the third in

Po3tm aster General "Waxamaker
reported to have come to the conclusion
that what the country wants is not cheap
cr postage, but a better service. It is
found that while a reduction of letter
postage to one cent would be universally
acceptable, it cannot be made without
seriously imparinsr the revenues of the
postoffice department nnd incidentally
affecting its efficiency. The truth is that
the present postage rate is the least bur
den of taxation of which American peo
ple have reason to complain. Bee
Tub little town of Ilyattville, in Mary
land, has decided to put the single tax
theory to a practical test, llie town is
pretty nearly as old as the theory itself,
and the questron has been discussed
around the family circle and in public
places until eyerybody has it by heart.
Some time ago the little village conclud
ed to enter noon a series of public im
provements and somebody suggested the
idea of-levying takes on the land alone.

The Engagement and Wedding Rings a no
the Fingers Tliey Adorn Superstitious
and Omens Connected with Them The
Ioy Ring of the Sixteenth Century.
The origin of tho circlet that adorns my
lady's hand is obscure, though very ancient.
There is a tradition which assigns the inven
tion of the ring to Tubal Cain, and the old
Latin author who gives circulation to the
story, in sjieaking of tho wedding circlet,
says: "The form of tho ring being circular
that is to say, round and without end im
partetli this much, that mutual love and
hearty affection should roundly flow from
ono to tho other, as in the circle, and that
continually forever."
Tho hands of female mummies found In
tho tombs of Egypt aro profusely decorated
with rings, thus proving that ring wearin,
was an established custom at a very early
day. The wealthy ladies of Egypt wore
rings on nearly every finger and costly rings
they wero, too. Their poorer sisters used
less costly circlets, and rinss formed of
bronze, glass and pottery with suitable mot
toes were their finger friends.
BETROTHAL. AND MARRIAGE RINGS.
Marriago by tho ring is common in many
countries besides our own. The Russians
have two rings, which are changed three
times. In the first place, the man places tho
ring on tho woman's finger, then the priest
changes tho man s ring and puts it on her
finger, and thon priest and man join and give
her tho ring for life. W hen Henry VIII es
poused Anne or uieves no sent ner a ring
which bore the inscription, "God send me
well to keep." It was a fatal motto, as we
know, for "bluff King Hal" ere long grew
tired of her and began to look tu-ound for
another pretty victim.
Wedding rings have not always been mado
of metaL Necessity has caused the invention
of some singular ones. On several occasions
a pieco cut from the finger of a kid glove has
answered for tho wedding circlet. When the
gallant Duko of Hamilton married Miss Gun
ning almost on tho spur of tho moment, ono
mijrht say, for the courtship was of but two
days' duration, I believe, no proper cere
monial ring was at hand. The archbishop
refused to act without a ring, and the lord
and his lady were for a whilo distracted.
But at length tho knot was cut in an ingen
ious manner and the young couple were mar
ried by the ring of the bed curtain, which no
doubt cut a curious figure on tho whito hand
of tho fair damsel
Among tho Armenians children are sub
jected to early betrothal by ring ceremony.
This is done by the mothers, who make the
occasion a very solemn one, and at any time
years afterward tho man can claim his bride.
But once a year from the date of tho be
trothal tho prospective brido is entitled to
receive un Easter dress frpm the bauds of the
futuro husband. Customs similar to this one
prevail in various countries of tho east, and
tho ring is made to play a very important
part in tho woman's lift.
In Roman espousals, mentions Macrolms,
tho man gavo the woman a ring by way of
pledge, and tho woman put it on tho third
linger cf her left hand, because it was be
lieved that a nerve ran from that finrrer to
tho heart. Tho Egyptians ascribed tho
possession of this important nerve to
tho ; fourth finger of the same hand. Com
ing down to later belief and usage, wo
find that Madamo de la Tour, writing of my
lady's ring, saja that if tho lady is willing to
marry, tho circlet should bo worn on tho in
dex finger of tho left hand; if engaged, on
tho second finger; if married, on tho third;
but if sho has no desiro to wed, then on the
littlo finger. I
Tho sign language of the ring is yarierJ cr..!
quaint. For instance, wo aro told that a
ring on tho forefinger indicates a haughty,
bold and overbearing spirit; on the long
finger, prudence, dignity and discretion; en
the marriago finger, love and afTectiou; oa
tho little finger, a masterful spirit.
Ouo ouId pot flunk that rings wero once
worn on tho thumb, but such was ono of tho
customs that prevailed from tho Fourteenth
to the Seventeenth century. Wo are quite
familiar with Falstaff's extravagant boast
that, when young, he was slim enough to
"creep into any plderman's thumb ring."
.But thumb rings never came into general use
among the ladies. They preferred to keep
tho rinj7 on tho tapering fingers, where it
could bo worn with more easo and to better
advantage.
Wedding rings in all ages havo been re
girded sacred. When llary of Mcdeiia, one
x)f the beautiful and unfortunate heroines of
history, was forced to dispose of her jewels
sho kept as most precious to her her wedding
ring. Dr. Samuel Johnson kept his wife's
ring as a sacred treasure, aad the keepsake
most valued by Victoria is kuowu to bo the
ring placed on her finger by Albert on their
wedding day. There is a story told of a Rus
sian prince who, on being searched previous
to'a life long exilo in Siberia, begged to bo al
io wed to retain a plain gold ring which kept
alivo tho memory of a nappy marriago. And
tho story goes, I am glad 'to say, that ho
went to the mines with the treasure next to
his heart
POST ANT MOTTO RINGS.
Posy rings came into vogue with tho Six
teenth century. These were motto rings, and
they form ono of the most interesting chap
ters of ring lore. It is said that tho famous
ring which Essex sent to Queen Elizabeth by
tho Countess of Nottingham, but which the
willful woman did not deliver until after the
duke's death, was a posy. These rings were
common between lovers ana tnenas all over
Europe, They bore rhyming mottoes and af
fectionate sentiment, and the lady without a
posy ring was looked upon as forlorn and
with but few hopes of marriage ahead.
Shakespeare know tho posy ring, for in the
Merchant of v cnico" ho makes Gratianoand
Nerissa say:
Gratiano About a hoop of gold, a paltry ring'.
That she did give me, whose posy wes.
For all the world like cutler s poetry
Upon a knife, "Love me, love me not."
Nerissa What talk you of the posy, or tho value?
You swore to me when I did Rive it you.
That you would wear it tiU your hour
pf death.
Seme of tho mottoes on the old posy rings
aro beautifully quaint. The list of them is
entirely too long to be embodied in this arti
cle, but I cannot refrain from giving a few:
"In the my choice, 1 do rejoice."
"May God above increase our love."
"Not two but one till Life is done."
,fMy heart and 1 until I die."
"As gold is pure, so love is sure."
"As long as life your loving wife."
"Love is sure where faith is pure."
"Love is heaven, and heaven is love."
"Not for a day, but, love, for aye."
"When this you see, then think of me."
'Iu gold I'm cast to bind two fast."
"My heart Is thine, true loyo pf mine." T.
