There la a deep undercurrent of grim humor and much more pathos In the story of the battery that went through the war without the loss of a gun and In the end after the surrender at Appomattox escaped the Igno miny of falling Into the enemy's hands by being b'urled In the river. Five other well told short stories nro combined In the volume. LITTLE IKE TEMPLIN. Uy Richard Mal colm Johnston. Cloth , $1. Lotlnop Pub lishing Company , Boston. This Is but one among a scries of short stories and sketches delineating plantation characters and southern life. Humor , pathos , sentiment , fun and not a little homely wisdom and practical philosophy gleam In or underlie all these stories and sketches , while the dialect Is so skillfully used that even the northerner , unfamiliar with Its slipped and dovetailed founds , knows It to be the real thing , and enjoys It correspondingly. The stories are all of Georgia life and character , and not a boy or girl but will enjoy the bee hunt with Mr. Wimpy , laugh heartily over the mock ghostN discomfiture under the eye of o'd Uncla Pete , and feel the pathos of poor Mr. Brown's bequests. They will sigh over the fate of Buck , the pet bear , and find plenty of fun In the stress of Tobe , the horse , and the concentrated chorus of Potlpher , the mule. NEW STREAMS IN OLD CHANNELS.

Dr. Lyman Abbott Is distinguished as a masterly Interpreter of the gospel In the terms of the present age , a clear and logical thinker , a concise and practical expounder ; he Is the representative of aI ) that Is strong , high , .and deep in Christian thinking , of the charity that never falleth , and of the breadth and tenderness nnd wisdom an1 * Justice of what Is known among men as the new theology. The selections made by Mrs. Haynes from the pulpit utterances and pub lished papers of Dr. Abbott all bear evi dence of the nobility and wisdom that under lie the spoken and written words of this remarkable preacher and editor , whose force Is not so much In his oratory as In his pre cepts , nor so much In hU manner as In his thoughts and observations CHATTERBOX FOR 1S94.

( Special. ) s the time for the convening of the Btato 'glslaturc ' approaches there seems to be an nusually largo number of politicians gtrlng- ig Into Sioux Falls for Interviews with tha our Pcttlgrew managers. These politicians ro very desirous of securing Jobs In the glslature , either ns speaker , doorkeeper , icsscnger , commlttecman or janitor. They eel that their success depends largely on the- ay-so of the Pettlgrow managers , who so lily handled the campaign In this state re- ently , securing an overwhelming majority n the legislature. The campaign was made Pettlgrew and nntl-Pctllgrew campaign nd the former clement ulttnlg , the pros- ects of Mr. Petlgrew being re-elected to the tilted States senate hnvo been made a cor- alnty. Of the 120 members In both branches t the leglsuature , 101 arc rcptibllcann and is only-live populists and democrats. Ot the ) l republicans Mr. Pettlgrew 1ms ninety lodged to his candidacy. William Mclntyro r Wntcrtown has come out as acnndldsto , lalmlng tha sttport of ex-Governor Mollctte. his support docs not mean as much ns It Id at ono tlmo In former years , although It as seldom Interfered with' Mr. Pottlgrevv's lans. The chances of success for Mr. Mc- ntyre ore hardly worth considering. The otc on United States senator will be taken anuary 22. Probably the hottest fight Is over the pcakcrshlp. The candidates are C. T. How- rd of Redfleld , cx-Unltcd States attorney ; C. 1. I3urkc , a prominent member of the Plcrro lo.trd of Trade , and P. C. Truman of Urook- igs , who , on the official ballot tied his popu- st opponent , but who was given the victory n the recount. Glass of Watertown is outer or the spcakcrshlp , hut It Is understood that ! ho sees fit to withdraw ha will do to In war of Howatd. H Is generally conceded liat Truman and Glass will not cut much gurc In the fight , but their candidacy may ccuro for them Important places on com- itttces. Howard and Uurko will bo the cen- er ot the fray. Howard claims ho has the cal , having already a majority of the mem- era pledged to vote for him. Ho cornea rom a prohibition county , and that class ount on him for support , as also do the rall- oads , who are looking to him to help stand It the hostile legislation which is threatened , ml which Is being earnestly urged by the 'roducers nnd Shippers association , which ncliidcs nearly all of the business men of the talc. On the other hand , llurko Is out- pokcn In his opposition to prohibition , and is purposa to help pass restrictive railroad aws , ns requested by the above mentioned ssoclatlou. R. S. Person , editor of the Howard Press , vlll In all probability bo chosen ns clerk f the sonnto. The result of the choice ot lork of the house Is , however , not so easy o predict. J W. Cone has held that position vcr Blnco the stntc was organized , and for no session of tha territorial legislature. Ho us become almost Indispensable to the pe.ikrr , by being familiar with all questions illicit fall on the speaker to bo decided , and olng close to the speaker's chair , la oa&lly oferrcd In. Cone , however , has not the valkuway which ho was expected to have en days ago. The advocates of resubmlsslon emember n little occurrence which may tosslbly cost Cone the clerkship. Two years go , when the vote on rcsubmlsslon ot the irohlbltory law was taken , the result showed hat It passed by ono majority. Clerk Cone eferred announcing the vote for n couple of nlnutes , nnd during that tlmo the prohlbl- lonlsls had jumped on to Patten of Headlo oniity nnd persuaded him to change his oto , lliuii defeating the measure. Cone , vhothcr he acted wilfully or not In this natter. Is held responsible for the result , lls present optionent Is Hopkins of Codlng- on county , who Is now n rcfmbmlsslonlnt , although two years ago he was ono of the nest ardent workers among the prohlbltion- sts. The house Is rcsubmUslon strongly , nnd lopklns mny go In. The senate , however , s not for resubmlsslon , nnd whether that ncasure will carry this session looks moro loubtftil than H. did some time ago. There will bo four Interesting matters bo- ere this cession , nt any rate : The railroad Ight , the senatorial election , resubmlsslon mil on attempt to remove the capital. The alter will no doubt prove fruitless. There Is also some talk ot nialn helping out the llvorro Industry by reducing the time noces- iary to gain a residence to three months . ii.vut TIIK oiioici : .
