case, the lady missed her footing on the mar
row step, and was percipitated to the bottom
of the flight. She was taken up and con-
veyed to her home on Thirteenth avenue,
between Sixth and Seventh streets. The
injuries of the unfortunate lady are very
severe, the hips and back are hurt
badly, and internal in uries are feared.
The child was badly bruised. The authori

Laughlin came to the police station on Fri

dated, and yesterday morning when the
jailer let the dodgers loose Mclaughlin re-
fused to come out Chief Munger finally
persuaded him to come out, when he attack
ed the chief with a knife and lively russell
ensued. He was finally disarmed and locked
up for safe keeping.
He answers very we'll to the description of
Robert Northrup, who has been missing
from Hastings since Tuesday, but on being
talked to by a GLOBE reporter last night, he
said his name was Mclaughlin, and that he
was from Yankton, D. T. He acts and talks

that family of persons follow him when
ever he moves. If not all right on Monday,
he will be taken to the asylum at st. Peter.

amount OF ammonia which it contains.
Roth are very powerful. and must be
used with extreme caution, after being
well reduced by mixture with other
substances which will cause them TO

ally For this purpose. finely pulyer-
lied clay, dry loan, muck and gypsum
are good. Lime. wood ashes and like
substances are not economical for mix
ing with fowl droppings, as they weak

off the ammonia.
Properly prepared, fowl manure may
be applied to any crop, field or garden.
but il is EIore economically applied in

manure sufficient for an acre of corn,
