An ASSOCIATION has been formed
at St. Paul, named the est. Paul
and Minnesota Exposition The
general nature of the business Of
this society is the promotion and
encouragement of agricultural and
mechanical industries and the hold
.ng of fairs and other public exhibi-
;ons in the State of Minnesota.
It's principal place Of business is at
st. Paul, and it's first annual expo
,ition or fair will be held the first
week in September, 1880. The capt.
sal stock Of the association is $780,.
600, and the incorporators are Gen.
Il. II. Sibley, c. Gotzian, P. H.
Kelly, Geo. R. Finch, Amherst II.
Wilder, D.. NJ. Robbins, Maurice
Auerbach, VIM. r. Merriam and

fact that the last State Fair was a
partial failure, the organization Of
this society will no doubt be hailed
with pleasure by the people through
out the whole State, and we look
forward to it's first exposition with
big expectations, as without doubt
it will be the best and largest ever
held in the northwest.

The following from the Pioneer.
Press may have been written in
good faith, but we fear, as the editor
of the Pioneer Press knows that the
German Republicans of Minnesota
are just now not in a very pleasant
mood, that it is merely thrown out
as kind Of a soothing balm. f SO,
we can assure the Pioneer Press that
it won't work. Col. Pfander and
his friends were sold once and don t
care about being taken in again,
not just yet:
The defeat Of Col. Pf@nderin the
recent State convention has given.
him far more prominence in public
favor than if he had been nominal.
ed for the Office he has filled with
such acceptance. The universal re-.
greet that his name was not on the.
ticket has brought more clearly into
public view the real value Of the
man and his standing IN public esti-
nation. His popularity IS not con.
fined to the Germans, but IS general.

Mr.. William w. Keen, the assist.
ant cashier of the Northwestern Ma
tional Bank at Minneapolis, who
has had principal charge of the bust.
ness for the past six weeks, was last
Friday discovered by the govern.
ment bank examiner Mr.. Joseph
Jockey to be a defaulter in the sum
Of $135, 600. Mr.. Keen at once aek.
nowledged the defaulcation and sub.
sequently confessed to Hon. H. T..
Welles, president of the bank, that
he had for a year been specializing
in grain on the Chicago market, u.s.
ing the money Of the bank for the
purpose; that he had lost large sums;
and that he had thus converted to
his own use the funds Of the bank to
the amount of $135, 600, out of which
he had left only $1,000. This he
proposed to return to The
bank, leaving the amount of the
banks loss by his embezzlement
$127, 200. He appeared frank and
penitent in his confession and ex-
pressed himself ready to submit to
the penalties he incurred, saying he
would make no attempt to evade
them.
President Welles promptly CON-
municated with the stockholders Of
the bank, and an assessment Of 20
per cent. was made, making coed
the deficit and relieving depositors
from all occasion for uneasiness.

they would not recognize the Ben

A Specimen Of Turkish Justice.

Three years ago young Christian
Maronite in Turkey killed Mussul~
man in hot-headed quarrel. After
lying ever since in prison the mother
OF the victim came forward last Feb
ruary and insisted on his being SEN
fenced to death. What followed the
Constantinople correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press thus describes: Gas
the crime was proven according to
local judicial forms, she obtained from
Midhat Pasha, the Governor of SYRIA,
q tirman for the execution, and day
was fixed for the hanging. In vain the
notables of all .creeds and races, Mus
sulmans and Christians, appealed to
the old woman to be merciful, and upon
her word depended the life of the Ma
ronite. They represented to her that
if he did do the deed it might have been
in self-defense; that at any rate his
guilt was not perfectly clear; that he
had already grievously suffered in body
and mind by his imprisonment, and
that the people of Beyrout did not want
q capital execution in their midst.
Neither the Turkish Ulemas, the Greek
and Armenian Bishops, nor the Turkish
officials could soften the obdurate heart
of this cruel megara. i have the fir
man for his execution she said, and
his fate is in my, hands. / will not
spare him. In the night of Feb. 8,
three hours after midnight, he was
taken from his cell and led TO the place
Of execution. An immense crowd of
people gathered around the scaffold.
There took place q scene of the most
extraordinary kind. The woman was
told by the executioner that the mans
relatives were ready to pay her any
sum in their power il she would, as
custom authorized, allow him to 90
free on the payment Of blood money.
She shrieked and foamed for vengeance.
For an hour and more she refused to be
merciful, Notwithstanding the entreaties
of the mass of men, women and chill
dren. In the meanwhile the young
man stood on the gallows with the
halter about his neck, trembling for his
life. Finally, worn out BY the prayers
OF the people, and tempted by the high
figure to which the relatives of the
Maronite had run up. the bid for his
life, she consented to accept 5000
francs as blood money. The hangman
let go his hold of his expected victim,
and handed him over to his relatives,
who carried him off amid the acclama-
tons of the spectators. =

DIISSISSIPPILYNCHING.
Barn Burners Hung.

MEMPHIS, April 2s.-A telegram from
Starkville, Miss, says: On the morn
ing OF the oath inst, a large barn Of
Jordon Moore, residing five miles south
of this city, was burned to the ground.
Suspicion pointed to negro named
Johnson Spencer, who was an
employ OF Moore, and who
was arrested for the crime, but
on examination, was acquitted, there
being no positive proof of his guilt.
Last night his other mammoth barn,
containing wagons, provender, and
agricultural implements, was discovered
in flames. This time the incendiary was
caught, who proved TO be negro named
Nevlin Porter. He confessed and also
implicated Johnson Spencer and others.
A combination had been formed to
prosecute their hellish designs. The
burning OF the barn last night was to
divert attention from spencer Judge
Lynch summoned his court to-day.
About one hundred men were present,
principally negroes. The heard the con-
iession, and then hung him amid the
jeers and cheers of the populace. 1t is
feared, owing to the Indignation, that
Spencer will he dealt with in the same
manner tonight. Otherwise, his trial
will proceed tomorrow. The mob con-
sisted almost exclusively of negroes.
This is the first court ever held in this
county by Judge Lynch.
