who has been shelved with rheumatism,
or see a person mangled underneath a

THEJUDICIAL ELECTION

1t should not be forgotten by the
voters of the state that an Associate
Justice of the Supreme Court is to be
elected at the April election in place
of Judge Cole whose term expires in
May. Judge Cole has been named as
fit candidate for reelection, the PEG,
pie of the state having sure guarantee
from the past, that he will fill the office
with entire satisfaction 10 the future.
Thus far Judge Cole is without any
opponent, and in any event his el@c-
ton is a certainty. But TO avoid all
trouble Republican Committees
throughout the state should see to it
that tickets are supplied and that they
are properly printed. The name of
Orsamus Cole for Associate Justice
should be printed on the same ballot
with the names of the candidates for
County and Circuit jadges where such
are to be elected Remember that
the names of Associate Justice, .Coun-
ty Judge, and Circuit Jud &c must be
on a separate ballot from the one con-
tanning the names Of city and town Of
fcers.

An AIRLINE Railroad Between Chica
GO and Duluth.

An air. line railroad winch, when
completed, will connect Dhica2J with
Duluth has been determaed o., and
already ao5ut forty iee miles OF road
are GRADED ten Of which are IN opera
ion. The right Of way has been OBJ
aimed and nothing lacks in the enter
prise to make it speedily an assured
success. The cou"try through which
the ROAD viii pass is quite productive,
and in some places very rich indeed,
and with lumber regions and undevel
oped mining resources. The pro-
Jet was first agitated some months
ago among New York capitalists and
railroad men who understood the need
for such a line between the great city
of the present and 1.-The great city of
the future" Every encouragement
was shown to the idea, and finally, not
very long since, the Company was
formed in this city with capital stock
of S10,000,000 and an additional So
900, 900, in bonds. The greater p'rt
of this capital will come from the East,
but a number Of Chicago capitalists
are also largely interested III the pro-
posed new railroad. The road at pres
ent starts from Richmond, on the Wis
consin State line, and the grading
operations have reached Jefferson. 1t
will thence extend to Portage City,
crossing the Wisconsin River, the Vel
lowstone, thence continue through
NealsvilIe and Neenah, and afterwards
proceed due northwesterly course
to Duluth By the way of this line it
is said the distance from Chicago to
Duluth will be about 400 miles, saving,
when compared with the present rail-
road facilities between two points, near
ly 200 miles. The officers of the new
Company are as follows George b..
White, New York, formerly Director
of the Erie road, Vice President !;
George Nj. Graves, New York, former
ly Director of the Erie road, Presi
dent; John G. Barnes. of New York
Treasurer FL A. Warren, of New
York, Secretary; Nelson Ludington,

GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN.

Monday afternoon, Drs William
Hammond and Thaddeus Cross, the
Board de Lunatico Inquirendo appoin-
ed by Judge Daily by request of Dis
trict Attorney Phelps, toTdetermine the
condition of Mr.. George Francis Train,
forwarded their report to the District
Attorney 1t is very brief, merely
declaring Mr.. Train to be subjec to de-
luslons, Irritations in his Conduct, and
of unsound mind Dr. Hammond
subsequently said TO a .Stm reporter
that he did not think Mr. Train a dan
gerous lunatic. and has refused 10 sign
an affidavit that he ought not to be at
large. Le thought Mr. Twain a tinid
man, except in his language, and was
of opinion that he ought to be at once
released from confinement, as that tend
ed to aggIavate his malady. "Mr.
Train he said, SIS man of great
genius and fine education. His chief
Illusions were that be was to be Pagan
Dictator, and was the only man who
could save the country, and was the
leader of the Internationals.
The reporter afterward visited Dis
trict-Attorney Phel ps, in order to as
certain what action he was going to
take on the report of the Medical
Board. NJ. Phelps said that he should
lay the report before Judge DAILY, who.
as first Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas acted as County Judge, and un-
der the provisions of the statute of
1912 has the power either to impannel
jury to decide the question of Mr..
Trains sanity, on to send him to the
Utica asylum on his own commitment.
Mr.. Phelps has no doubt that Mr..
Train chad a screw loose" somewhere.
but he thought him harmless, and not
subject to, hallucinations fraught with
danger to any one.
The medical commission has made
two visits to Mr.. Train the last one
Monday receiving extra official sanction
through the action Of Judge Bowling,
who went with the doctors to Mr..
Trains cell
Mr.. Train says very little about the
doctors decision. He thin ks that there
is conspiracy to get him into an asy-
lum, and he will quietly submit to the
authorities, relying upon his friends to
see him indicated.
His friends are aroused. and they
will make fight that promises the
strongest kind Of a diversion in Mr..

FOSTER AS A SUIcIDE.-NEw YORK,
March ga statement is published
to day, based on information derived
from Tombs official, that Foster took
poison on the night before his exeeu-
ton. About s o'clock yesterday morn
ing the matron of the Tombs found
Foster sick, and in explanation be then
admitted that he had taken poison, and
many of his symptoms in every way
confirmed this suspicion. On this ac-
count the sheriff fastened the execu-
ton, and while many believed that the
duration of the religious exercises was
telling on Fosters nerves, it was in
in reality a weakness caused by the
poison that was acting on him. A
Tombs physician says that Foster
would have died if his execution had
been delayed until 10 O'Clock.
