DYNAMITE, NOT STEAM
The citizens of Saltwater were startled
Tuesday evening about $50 O'Clock by an
exceedingly loud and explosive report which
came from the direction of the city levee. A
crowd was soon surging to and fro, suppos-
ing some boiler had exploded near by. Ru-
mors of all kinds were afoat, but nothing
could be found out in regard to where or
wnat mad caused the noise. Early this morn
| ing confession was made by Sam. Packard
VINO stated that he had been down to Capt.
| hnapp's government fleet, and seeing some
OF his cartridges and hearing Of their won
| derful power, took one. At about $50 that
evening he placed the dynamite cartridge on
| a slab and launched it in the middle of the
lake after lighting the slow match, and
that is what the people of this community
supposed to be a report of az earthquake or
a boiler explosion.

THE WEST ST. Paul LEHEn.

The legislature of Minnesota that is now
chosen, will be asked to give its consent to a
matter that, while not concerning the State
at large to great extent, is of considerable
Importance to st. Paul, and especially to
that portion of it which lies in Dakota coun-
ty. Two years ago permission was asked for
the construction of levee or dyke along the
west bank of the Mississippi river opposite
st. Paul, the cost to be not more than thirty
flVe Thousand dollars, and to be paid by the
property benefited. The legislature refused
to grant the permission, and SO the property
in that portion has been ever since subjected
to the danger of overflow. The first wear.

MIR. FINLEY has been interviewed by

grace upon this State by living here, but the
State has long since purged itself of his pres

attaches to his resident point. 1t is anus
ing, however, to read of his referring to

others interested in the subject, with re-
quest for their criticisms. The answers re-
ceived were highly favorable to the general
plan of the proposed bill, but many valuable
suggestions were made in matters
of detail These are incorporated
in this edition excepting where they
seemed to be'either already provided for by
authoritative decisions under the old act or
more proper to be regulated by the courts in
their rules and orders. The most important
of changes made in this edition is an in
crease of the power of registers, who are vir-
tually judges. in the first instance, of nearly
all matters in bankruptcy within easy reach
of parties having business in them. The
bill has been wholly revised and many alter
ations made with the view of making the
law more effective and useful.

MR. GARFIELD lacks gallantry. Anumber
of sweet girl graduates visited him at his
home on Monday, and he refused to make a
speech to them. But, come to think of it.
the election is over, and speeches don't count.
Nevertheless he should have given the young
ladies slight insight into American politics
as viewed from his standpoint, as he did to
the boys who called on him day or two
before the election.

Attempted Outrage and
Drowning.

A Hagerstown correspondent writ
ing to the Baltimore San on Tues
day last, says:
SUNDAY morning q colored man
named James Johnson, a mule driver
for a canal boat owned by Lawson
w. Poffenberger, was drowned in
the canal at Dulaney's lock, near
Sharpsburg, under peculiar circum-
stances, The facts of the case, as
far as gathered, are substantially as
follows: The negro Johnson went
to the house Of Mr.. Timothy Mccoy,
and finding there only Miss Mary
James, aged about sixteen years, at
tempted an outrage upon her per.
son. johnson had in his hand a
knife, from which Miss James re-
ceived several severe cuts in her
efforts to free herself from his en-
brace. Mrs. Jessie Price fortunate
ly came upon the scene of the strug-
gle, when Johnson fled, leaving his
knife behind. When Mr.. Mccoy
returned to his home and learned of
the attempted outrage upon Miss
James, his neice, he followed john
son, found him at Dulaney's lock,
near Sharpsburg, driving mules at
tached to the boat "Martha Jane"
bound for Georgetown. He crossed
on the boat, at the lock, to the tow
path, and with double-barreled
gun, opened fire upon the negro, but
without effect. The negro, how
ever, became frightened, jumped into
the canal and was drowned. A jury
of inquest rendered verdict of
drowning while being pursued by
Mccoy. Mccoy was arrested and
last night brought to this place and
lodged in Jail to await hearing be-
fore justice Grove, of Sharpsburg, on
Saturday next. This morning a writ
of haheas corpus was obtained and a
hearing will be had in the case be-
fore the court tomorrow. The body
of Johnson was recovered from the
canal by Section Superintendent III.
G.. Burgan and inferred on the bank
of the river, near the place of drown
ing. Had Johnson escaped the ven
geance of Mccoy, he would proba-
hly have been the victim of violence
from the hands of an aroused and
indignant populace.n

How the Early Virginians
got Wives.

The history of the Common
wealth of Virginia, commenced
with an auction sale-nOt hoWev-
err, in store, but beneath the
green trees of Jamestown, where
probably. the most anxious and
interested crowd of auction habi-
itues ever known in the history OF
the world were gathered. In a
letter still to be seen, dated Lon
don, August q, 1921, and directed
to worthy colonist of that settle
ment, the writer begius by saying:
1--WE send you shipment, one
widow and eleven maids, for wives
for the people of Virginia. There
has been especial care in the choice
of them, for there hath not one Of
them been received but upon good
recommendations. In case they
cannot be presently married we
desire that they may be put with
several househoders that have
wives, until they can be provided
with husbands"
But the writer of this epistle had
little reasen to fear that any of the
"maidens fair" would be left over.
The archieves contains evidence to
prove that these first cargoes OF
young ladies were put up at auc-
ton and sold for one hundred and
twenty pounds Of tobacco each,
and it was ordered that this debt
should have precedence over all
others. The solitary 'one widow,
went along with the others. for
they could not be particular in
those days. The good minister OF
the colony no doubt had a busy
time that day. He did not men
ton any fees, nor did the bride
groom think of rendering any
All was JOY and gladness no
storms ahead, no inquisitive clerk
to stand and say: "Here's the
license, fork over that one dol
larp Nothing of the sort. From
some of these couples the first

How n Town Was Born.

One day last summer two men
who were riding in the San Juan
country, below Animas City, Colora-
do, drew reins that they might wa
ter their horses in a delightfully."-
cool stream. The banks of the
stream were covered with grass and
flowers. Both men seemed to grasp
the same idea the same moment
that the spot would soon become the
site of prosperous town. They
rode back to Animas and bought
what land along the stream they
were able, and then proceeded on
their journey up into the mountains.
When these men returned, a short
time ago, they found a settlement
ON the banks of the stream where
they had halted. The miners at
Silverton and Rico had sent men
into the valley to put up perma nent
buildings, and the workmen having
selected the beautiful site indicated,
had named the place Durango. 1t is
now tie Mecca of all the San Juan
country. People are fiocking thither
by the score, and houses are going
up as if by magic. The sounds of
the saw and hammer are heard far
into the night. Over $4,000 worth
of lots have been sold within a very
short time. Several brickyards are
in full blast, and they fail to supply
the demand. Saw-mills are spring.
ing up on the outskirts of the place.
Four squares are reserved in the
centre Of Durango as 'the fine dis
trict;" and the erection of brick and
stone houses only is permitted. A
railroad is approaching. Already
"the Animas and Durango stage
line' figures in the spicy local paper.
The town is located in a valley, and
is almost surrounded by mountains,
which makes the rest of the San
Juan country SO disagreeable in win
ter. A half-dozen saloons are in full
blast. The Durango dance-hall is a
thing of life. The Durango church
is thing of the future.

Those who are accustomed to muf-

nels this wintry weather may learn
something from an incident of a
young man long afflicted with sore
throat, which we find in a Boston
exchange. He had been wearing a
fur cap, with a cape or skirting at
tached all around, that effectually
protected his face and neck from the
cold, even to glasses for the eyes.
getting no better, he drove many
miles to consult the venerable ID.
Bellamy. After brief interview
the Doctor went to the table and ex-
amined the clergyman's wonderful
cap. Without hesitation or uttering
word, he, with his knife, cut off
clean and entire the superfuous ap-
pendages or cape. He then bathed
the throat of his patient (outside)
with cold water and brandy, add
ing an injunction to continue the
bathing for a season, before exposure
to cold. He sent him home wiser
man. The cure was radical and
complete, and the trouble never re-
turned, for he never again, even in
the coolest weather, muflled his
throat with extra covering.
