An Insane Ex-Coneressman

One of the saddest cases in the pc.
lice history of Washington occurred
on Friday, when ex-Congressman
Martin F. Conway, Of Kansas, was
arrested and brought before the pc.
lice court, charged with being an in.
sane man, and unsafe to be at large
He was committed to the district in.
sane asylum to await the result Of
regular investigation by court into
the matter of his lunacy. His history
is remarkable, and to persons familiar
with it he is an object of infinite pity
He was the first Representative in
Congress from Kansas, being elected
in 1858 to represent the baby State
He was a printer by trade, having
worked in Baltimore, and was one oil
the founders of the Typographical
Union. He went to Kansas and start
ed newspaper in ~, was an active
Frecsoiler, and assisted in framing
the original constitution of the State.
When he came to Congress he was
famous for his historical powers, but
was always regarded rs an unsafe
counselor. on account of his visionary
schemes and chimerical ideas, Some
ecccntricities which developed while
in Congress made him unpopular AT
home, and he was rcpudiated by his
State. Modification preyed upon his
health and shattered his reason. His
friends obtained for him foreign
consulate, hoping that residence
abroad and change of scene and as
ISOLATION would restore his health /;
but few months as consul proved
his incapacity, and he was recalled in
shame. Since then disappointment
and his continual ministry to a dis
cascd imagination had entirely un-
seated his reason, and, although his
friends aided him in various ways, he
has grown from bad to worse. Some
years ago he began to ill-treat his
wife and family, to whom he had al
ways before been loving husband
and father. Ex-senator Pomeroy Sc
cured for his wife government
clcrkship, and Conway, imagining
Pomcroy's interest founded on i'm
proper motives, shot him in the street
about two years ago, inflicting a pain
full but not serious flesh wound. lie
was uTTCstCu, Uut OihcIOl WOulu uOl
appear against him, and he was dis
charged by the court. Since then he
has been supported by distant rela-
tive on Capitol Hill, and has spent
most of his time reading at the Con-
gressional Library. He parades the
streets great deal, and created a
sensation some time ago by marking
queer looking hieroglyphics on street
lamp posts, door steps, and the doors
of private residences with red chalk.
His peculiar appearance always at
tracts attention wherever he appears.
His form is small, slender, and quaint,
his manner distracted and very ncr-
vous; the muscles Of his hands and
face are always twitching convulsivc-
ly, and his bright, red hair hangs in
long clusters around his shoulders
Recently he has appeared on the street
with large patches of bright rcd fan
mel on his garments. He is perfectly
inofiensivc in his demeanor, and never
gives annoyance to any ono. and
there is no reason why lie should not
be allowed at large.

dead on the sidewalk in front of the
residence of his son-in-law, on "Bap-

Dig a Well Near your Barn.

One of my neighbors has Just been
digging a well in his barn yard, The
digging and stoning cost him two
dollars per foot. The diggers board
ed themselves. My neighbor collect
ed the stone on his farm and delivered
them near the well. About fifteen
two-horse wagon loads were requir-
ed. Two men dug the well about
fifteen feet deep, and stoned il in
three days. The earth was not as COM
pact as it is in some places. About
half the dirt had to be broken with a
pick. There is about four feet in
depth of water i'm the well. Hence
as we had no rain Of any account for
about two months past, the assump-
ton is that the water In that well
will not fail for years to come. For
about forty years past this farmer has
lived OH that farm, which he now
owns. All his domestic animals. ex-
cept his hens, have been obliged to
get their supply of water at a stream
nearly one-eightli Of a mile from the
barn. In order to reach the stream
the gate at the barn yard had to be
opened, the highway crossed, and
two pair of bars let down at one end,
Now that he is old and Just ready to
be laid in his coffin, lie strained a
point to have well made in his barn.
yard. There are thousands of other
farmers in this country who need
wells at their barns as much as the
farmer just alluded to. Let one be
dug before cold weather comes on
During some long evening let the
boys work out the following arith.
metical problem We will say that
from the barn to the stream of water
the distance is 35 rods, and the same
distance to return, which equals &c
rods. Now suppose one was required
to go TO the stream three times da,
to water the horses and cattle how
many miles would he travel in forty
years? There are 800 rods per mile
If man went only three times daily
to water q horse he would travel gil
rods, which Is more than two-third,
of mile.
When well is dug near a barn, lei
ii be borne in mind that IL had bette,
DO located in one corner or one side
of the yard, so that deep drain can
be dug between the well and the
yard, TO prevent any liquid manure
from soaking into the well water
