The State Board Of Agriculture
met ON the 10Th inst, at Columbus,
TO revise the premium list for the
.next state Fair. Msssrs. Fullington,
Turney, Delano, Reber and Bucking-

the board have been in consultation
to harmonize the regulations con-
cernine horses. Hitherto each mem-
her of the horse committee at the
State Fair has made his own rul-
inc. which are frequently IN conflict.
Although no uDpleasantness has yet
resulted from this mode Of doing
business,t is thought best to have The
Fair regulations concerning horses
uniform, to avoid possible conflicts
and to insure justice to exhibitors.
Among the changes, SlOO IS OF,

for the second. On horses, where
changes are made, there is sllgn'
reduction. There was considerable
reduction of the list of last year OF

Letter from a Former wife Of Louis

Yesterday letter was received
5y Mayor Severance which for some

pher, After puzzhng over it foE
hours, be concluded it was an appli-
cation from the Princess All Sin, cr
the Grand Flamess Of TImbuctoo,
for the position Of pastry cook at
the city calaboose, and therefore
turned it over to Mr.. Frick, Street
Commissioner. Mr.. Frick fully ycOin-

commission was about TO be issued,
when Mr.. II. ". Kastor, editor Of
The Volksblatt, accidentally dropped

translated il as follows:

The Zlegenmeyer Case.


THE trial of Ziegenmeyer for the muir
der of Gumbleton closed yesterday with a
verdict of guilty and imprisonment for
life. 1t was not Left for the Judge TO fix
upon his sentence. We have a statute
making it optional with the jury to tx the
penalty for murder in the first degree. AS
the prisoner is hardly more than q boy he
has long incarceration in prospect, pro-
Vided the sentence should be carried cut
1t is very rare that it is. Those sentenced
for life get out, on the average, after serv-
ing about ten years of their term, which
in this case would make Ziegenmeyer a
free man in the prime of life. A motion
for a Lew trial has been made. Whether
it will be granted or not is, Of course, a
matter OF conjecture.
We have forborne comment upon this
case during its trial, not wishing 10 influ-
ence, in the least, the verdict; but now
that sentence has been pronounced, there
are two features in it that make it the
most remarkable in the whole calendar Of
criminal proceedings. The mere fact that
the evidence was circumstantlal is not at
all peculiar, for many man has been
hung without any direct proof of guilt
having been brought against him; but in
this instance there was no direct proof
that murder had been committed at all.
The body found in our lake on last New
Years day was certainly identified, but
there were no Indications of violence, but
rather that he was drowned. The theory
of the prosecution was that Ziegenmeyer
pushed him in, and that, being drunk at
the time, he could not resist or get out.
case solely by the steps taken by Ziegen-
FnaUar cI1beaG1aOtlU n rot tho HaaI Tnania
money. He must have known that
his companion was dead, and in
stead of sounding the alarm, he
set about getting possession Of his money.
Considering that they were friends, his
conduct showed him to be a heartl ess
monster, capable of almost any crime,
provided only he could profit by it. Many
murder has been committed which
showed the william less plainly than lie
genmeyer's plot to get hold of Gumble-
tons property, even admitting that he did
not begin his career of crime with muir
der This was doubtless the view taken
of the case by. the jury.
The second peculiarly was the entire
absence of any rebuttiDg testimony. The
whole defense rested, then, with he attor-
neys. 1t was for them to explain the
facts abducted upon a theory of limo.
eence. On the start an eminent criminal
lawyer was retained, but his plan of oper-
ations not suiting the prisoner he was dis
missed. 1t is fair to presume that the line
of defense finally adopted was dictated by
Ziegenmeyer himself. RulloH, it will be
remembered, also assumed control of his
own case, although he did not rely en-.
tirely upon mere theory Of innocence.
Should a new trail be granted, and
should the second jury acquit the prisoner,
nc would be at once put upon trial for
forgery. He might, however, come out
worse upon a second trial. AS matters
now stand his neck is safe, while second
jury might bring him TO the gallows,-

Eating and Drinking.

Now that midsummer is fairly upon
us, and we are passing through the heateds
term with all its cOnComitant diseases sur
rounding us, a word to the wise, we trust,
may be sufficient to ensure that degree Of
caution that should characterize ali of US
in the observance of the laws of health.
The temptation to free indulgence in the
fruits and vegetables thi t are so lavishly
presented to us is very great and already
many are paying the penalty of excess in
diet and violated laws that should govern
our sanitary condition. Ripe fruit and
vegetables are not only harmless but
wholesome, and are recommended in mod
Grafton under proper circumstances, by all
the medical faculty. But in the excess Of
their enjoyment lies the greatest difficulty,
and against which we should guard in
our daily food. Especially so when tho
system is much heated and the predisposi-
ton great to take frequent draughts of
cold water. The drinking of much water
at our meals or, indeed, any fluid, is con-
sidered injurious as interfering with the
proper digestion OF our food and reduc'
ing to an undue degree its nourishing
property The diseases that are too fire.
quently superinduced by want Of proper
caution upon the subject to which we
have referred, and the various phases Of
bowel complaints arising therefrom. Ma
ture will assert her rights and vindicate
her laws, and sooner or later we may ex-
pect to suffer the consequence Of reckless
mode of living, particularly during the
heated term.
Let all, then, who value their health
and happiness abstain from overlooking
the system, live temporarily and moder-
ately avoid undue excitement, and, as far
as practicable, keep out OF the hot sun,
and so we may hope with reasonable GER
tainty for that greatest of all blessings TO
the human family, good health Erchdn9s.
