An Intrepid Youth.

A farmer named johnson, living near
Clinton, Wis, the other Sunday morn
ing, when preparing to leave for church
with his family, noticed a rough-looking
customer lying under some currant-
bushes. Mr.. johnson suspected from
the fellows caution that he was far more
dangerous than the ordinary tramp, and
gave instructions to his son Calvin, who
is 10 years old, to fasten the doors, pull
down the curtains. and watch for de-
velopments. After the family had gone
a short time, young johnson heard q
noise in his bedroom, and, going inside
the room, waited at the foot of his bed,
with revolver in hand, and, when the
thief was climbing into the room through
the window, told him to go away, or he
would blow out his brains, but the dar-
ing burglar ran to and grappled with
Calvin, grabbing hold Of the weapon.
johnson pulled the trigger, and shot the
prowler through the left hand, the bull
let nearly coming out at the top of his
wrist. When this was done, he cried
for mercy, and Calvin tied him to the
bedstead with ropes. He was taken to
town, and DIR. james extracted the bull
let. The trial took place Monday morn
ing before Justice SlossoI, in crowd
ed courtroom. when it was learned that
the Villains name was Lewis Hansen,
and that he was of Norwegian parent
age. The Judge sent him up for SO
Chicago Tribune.

a, 900 or Is, 900, can easily purchase and
seed q section on the contract system.
But il he takes quarter or half section,
and, instead of having it all producing
something, improves sixty or eighty
acres each year, and puts his money in
teams and machinery, etc., he will make
slow progress compared with the man
who owns nothing but his land and puts
all his money in crops. This method Of
farming is also much facilitated by the
Herd law. Farms do not need to be
fenced here. The man who owns stock
is responsible for his stock, and part of
his responsibility is to keep it off his
neighbours crops. This is great ad-
vantage to new country. All the
money and time that would otherwise
have to be spent in fencing can now be
devoted to buying more land and in cul-
tivation. And it costs for herding but
a 1.-THE of what fencing would cost. In
fact, all the stock in this county is not
worth what it would take to fence the
crops that are now growing without an
attempt at fence. Mr.. Henry has 5000
acres of wheat in one body adjoining
Abilene. 1t would cost him many
thousands of dollars to fence it. 1t costs
each man who has COW but twenty
cents to have her herded on the prairie
and kept off every body's crops. At
night the stock must be correlled or tied.
This is but brief glance at what is
growing, popular, and new system of
agricultural industry in this country,
and one that am sure merits the atten-
ton of all those who mediate removing
to country where land is plenty, good,
and cheap, but where money, in the na-
ture of the case, is vet scarce, but where
it may be made very fast with proper
industry and average intelligence. May
it not be that this system, with its mu-
tual advantages and large profits. will
prove to be the germ of a new social and
industrial philosophy among the farm
ers of these great plains, which, instead
of being the barren regions they have
long been supposed to be, are proving
to be the most fertile and profitable
farming lands in the country, and which
in a few years will change the home Of
the buffalo, antelope, and Indian into
the abodes of the most happy, prosper
Gus, and independent people in the
world? The conditions are all here for
just that state of things, and, inspite Of
drought and grasshOppers, which are
fast losing their terrors, that state Of
things is fast becoming reality.
There are many things that stand
closely related to the subject of this ar
ticle, but it is already too long. How
ever, if any reader Of the Tribune wants
special explanations, and will address
his inquiries by letter to Mr.. F. C. Hen
ry, he will give full information in reply
to such inquiries.

The Southern Question.

WASHINGTON, March 30.-Though nc
direct knswledge has been obtained from
official sources as to the ultimate inten
tions of the general government on the
question of the political issues pending
in South Carolina, there is an impres.
sion, sustained by various facts, that the
end of the deliberations now in progress
will be the issue of an order removing
the troops from the State House at Co
lumbia. The anxiety is to so consum-
mate the action of the government that
no dlscord can possibly result. A fair
inference from the events which recent
ly occurred is, it will not be many days
before the decision will be announced.
The deliberations of the Cabinet to-day
involved a careful review of
all the statements recently made
to the President by Chamber
lain and Hampton and this will

About two hundred employees will be
dismissed from the Bureau Of Engraving
and Printing and the Treasury Depart
ment tomorrow, IN order to bring the
force down 10 the actual requirements OF
the work.

Court Scene In Leavenworth.

Lawyers sometime overshoot the mari
in attempting to corner witness. An
instance of this kind recently occurred
in Kansas. The Leaven worth Times o.

A rather amusing scene took place

man charged with the killing of hog

ado you know of any difference be-
tween the hog that was killed and other
hogs of the same litter, especially with
regard to the hesd?'
"Yes, sirrah."
Just turn to the jury and state what
difference you observed" triumph antly.
Humphrey turned to the jury, and
with straight face said. ''WelL sure,
the hog was, when alive, as any two peas
like the others, but afther lis head had
been murdhercd off as it was, it was very
unlike the live wons," The court could
not recover from sudden spasmodic &C
tion in time to fine the whole assemblsge
present for indulging in the roar which
followed, and Humphreys hog was
avenged.

THERE are two vacancies in the Board

THERE are two vacancies in the Board
of Regents of the Insane Asylum at
Weston. both occasioned by designations
OF citizens of that town, viz: Judge
EDMIsToN and j. w. WoFFINDEN.
Their designations were: rendered last
fall, but the late Board of Public
Works failed to ill the va.
cancies. Yesterday the Regents under
took to hold meeting, but no quorum
answered. Altogether, there should be
nine Regents, three residents of Weston
and six scattered tn the four points OF the
compass. With the two Weston vacan-
cies, quorum is difficult to obtain. On
learning the situation yesterday, the
new Board of Public Works would
undoubtedly have filled these
vacancies so as to give the Regents a
quorum, had quorum of the Board OF
Public Works been in the city. But
Auditor MILLER is away, arranging to
move his family here, Attorney-General
WHITE has not yet arrived with
his family, and Professor PENDLEToN
had gone up to Bethany. So the Asylum
Regents are still without quorum.

Washington Items.

WASHINGTON, March 30.-The popu

has been abandoned, the Conservative
leaders thinking it not In good taste.
Delegations from ArksR as, irrespec-
tive of party or color, several accom-.
panied by ladies, called on the President
and two or three speeches were made, all
expressive of the hope that the
peace policy of the President
would be entirely successful. Attention
was called to the circumstance of Demo.
Gratis contributing to the election of SEN
ator Dorsey, and of the Republicans as

"This is love feast that didn't expect.

know that the era of good feeling has
already arrived for Arkansas, and hope
it may he in no way diminished"
Gen. John NJ, Harlan, of Kentucky,
member of the Louisiana Commission,
had an interview with the President this
morning.
This afternoon the President received
delegation of colored citizens
from Alexandria, Virginia, urging
the appointment of Prof. Lang
ston as Commissioner of Agriculture. The
President said he recognized in the main
the Justice of the claim for able colored
men to be appointed to office, and that
he had the highest regard for Prof. Lang
ston, but he doubted whether he should
appoint him to that PARTICULAR position.
Some 15 or 20 temporary clerks IN the

The Charleston Committee Call on
the keeretarfes.

WASHINGTON, March 30.-The dele.
cation from the Charleston Chamber OF
Commerce have divided themselves into
committees 50 as to call on the several
secretaries.
Secretary Evsrts read to the commit
tee that waited on him, dispatch from
leading bankers OF New York, urging
that the most favorable consideration be
given 70 the Charleston committee S
views, and saying that if time had
permitted they could have had the
dispatch very generally signed. Mr..
Eyarts said that when the President
was prepared to act, he would do so on
his own responsibility, not seeking to
place any part of the burden on the rep
resentatives of either side, or the parties
they represented.
Secretary Sherman replied that the
President would, OF course, make de-
cision in the South Carolina case, bat his
hope was to relieve South Carolina OF
one of her two Governors in such
peaceful manner as to insure
peace and the absolute enjoyment OF
the rights of the colored people. Much
stress was laid on this point by all the
Secretaries.
Postmaster General Key was cordial
in his reception of the subcommittee to-
dsy, and said he had no reason to be dls-
coursged. He said he understood the
condition of affairs and the need OF
prompt action.
Secretary Thompson was uncomp7o-
missing IN the expression of his opinion
that the Federal government had
no right TO intervene in South
Carolina. He said that that State
should be left absolutely free
to settle her own disputes by her own
laws, in her own way. Secretary Schurz
was extremely cordial and liberal IN al
he said.
The Cabinet in q session OF several
hours to-day fully discussed the South
Csrolino question. No vote was taken
but the expression of the opinion OF the
different members showed decided ma
iority in isyor OF the immidiste with
drswsl of the troops from the STATE
House.
