J. W. Babcock of Kasota, we'll
known to many of our readers, has be-
come insane and was few days ago
taken TO the insane asylum at st. Peter.
His hallucination is that there is con-
spiracy to kill him: and during his
recent visit to this city he imagined
that there was a man at each end of
the train waiting for favorable op-
portunity to kill him. He got con.
veyance from Chas. Rosskopf to take
him to Madelia, but after proceeding
for some distance on the Madelia road
lie concluded to go to Mankato and
was taken back to the Mankato road.
At the crossing of the Little Cotton.
wood some men were at work repair
ing the bridge, and Mr.. Babcock got
out of the buggy and conversed with
them few minutes after which he ex-
pressed desire to return to New Ulm,
at the same time s;artiug to walk up
the team around he called to Mr.. Bah.
cock to got into the buggy, but to his
surprise Mr.. Babcock ran into the
woods and disappeared After wait
ing for some time the driver went in
search of Mr.. Babcock but could find
nothing of him, and he finally drove
back to this city and reported the queer
proceedings to Mr.. Rosskopf, who at
once notified Mrs. Babcock of her hus~
bands disappearance. Deputy sheriff
Sturgis also went in search of Mr..
Babcock, but after hunting around for
several hours he was informed by
traveller that a man answering to Bah
cocks description was seen going to-
wards Mankato on foot, where he ar
rived the same night about II o'clock.
1t appears that he lived in constant fear
of being killed, although he was IA
tional on all other subjects.

THE RIGHT OF WAY,

Railroad officials were trying to
secure the right of way. In some
cases farmers cheerfully signed off;
in others money had to be used, bat
in one case the committee found
most determined opposition The
road would divide a widows farm,
and she was independent, obstinate,
and defiant She knew that her hay
stacks and barns would be destroyed
by sparks, her live stock run over
by trains, and her slumberS disturb
ed by the rattle of trains, and she
wouldn't listen to argument. In this
emergency one of the committee
said :
Madam, do you know of any
widow 10 this neighborhood who
would be willing to board a gentle

of our road 7 He is a widower, aud

was nothing more nor less than a
phantom locomotive. The narrator,

about two miles from town one night
last week, when he discovered the
headlight of an engine approaching

beard no noise as the train came on,
and presently he stepped from the
track and waited for it to pass. He
was still puzzled why no noise at

as it came opposite he noticed that
the whole machinery had ghostly,

throttle stood a pale, wild-eyed
engineer, while a spectre like fire.

no sound came from the bell. All

THE CHANGE IN THE FROG.

Nowhere in the animal kingdom
is there so favorable opportunity for
peeping into natures workshop as in
the metamOrphoses of the frog This
animal is a worm when it comes
from the egg, and remains such for
the first four days of its life, having
neither eyes nor ears, nostrils nor
respiratory organs. 1t crawls. 1t
breathes through its skin. After
while a neck is grooved into the
flesh. Its soft lips are hardened
into horny beak The different
organs one after another bud out
then a pair of branching gills, and
last long timber tail. The worm
has become a fish-a pollicooger
tadpole. Three or four more days
eIapse, and the gllIS sink back into
the body, while in their places others
come, much more complex, arrang-
ed in vascular tufts, III in each.
But they, too, have their day, and
are absorbed, together with their
framework of bone aud cartilage,
to be succeeded by an entirely diff
ferent' breathing apparatus, the ini
tial of second correlated group of
radical changes. Lungs are devel

REGISTRATION LAW.

The papers are beginning to speak
out in favor OF registration law OF
application to the whole State. -
Among Others it is favored by the
Augusta News, Chronicle, Phono-
graph, Macon Telegraph, Marietta
journal, Greensboro Herald and
Home Journal, who are strongly ad
vocating it. A we'll considered law
on this subject ought to be enacted.
Such law ought to pass without
opposition. We doubt not, at the
recent county elections il this State,
sixty thousand illegal votes were
polled, 1t is fearful thing to cons
template. Good, law abiding citi-
zens should see to it that lawless,
irresponsible voters are not allowed
to hold the balance of power in our
elections, as has been the case for
years past. The laws of present
force, for the protection of the bal>
lot box, are utterly inadequate to
correct the evil. Legislators who
hope to be elected again, by honest
ballots, need not be afraid to advo>
cate the passage of such a law
Those who have reasons of their
own, for winking at existing evils
in our elections, may be expected to
oppose the passage of registration
law Sparta Ishmaelite,

RATE OF INCREASE OF WHITES
AND BLACKS IN THE SOUTH.

Census returns from the Southern
States of Alabama, Arkansas, Geor
gia, Louisiana and North Carolina
show the following rate of increase
of whites and blacks;
Alabama Whites, 81 per cent;
negroes, 26 per cent.
Arkansas Whites, Ga per cert.;
negroes, IS per cent.
Georgia Whites, 81 per cent;
negroes, 32 per cent,
Louisiana-W Whites, 26 per cent;
negroes, 33 per cent
North Carolina Whites, 80 per
cent; negroes, 33 per cent.
1t will thus.be seen that with the
exception of Alabama the negro race
has been increasing more rapidly
than the whites 10 the Southern
States. The same surprising fact
has also been shown by the census
returns of South. Carolina and Mary
land. If the census enumerators
could have taken into their count the
tens of thousands. of negroes reports
ed by the Radical press as having
been shot, huug..and butchered by
the Democrats 10 the South within
the last decade, the ratio of increase
of the blacks over the whites would
have been immensely greater 1t
seems that our "colored fellow citi>
zens" are not only wonderfully pro-
life, but that they stand killing bet
ter than any other race of people
known to history.

There is strange rumbling noise
audible Upon the Red River, Texas,
aud as the locality is fifty miles
from any railroad it cannot be at
tributed to passing trains. The in
habitants are much excited over it,
believing that it presages volcanic
action. 1t resemb les the sound of a
railway train, the rosr of a distant
waterfall, and at night the moaning
of the wind through a pine forest.
Its range, which is not changesble,
is from north to northwest, aud it
recalls the ominous sounds describ
ed by Humboldt as preceding the
great earthquake of 1853 in Next
co, when the volcanic mountain of
Jorullo was upheaved. Scientific
investigation will probably be or
dered by the State authorities.
