THE Pioneer Press of st. Paul prints a
communication from La Crosse as follows
The train arriving at La Crosse from Chi
cago brought in twenty sacks of Minnesota
mail undistributed, most of which was sent
back toward Chicago to be worked on the
next train bound west, there not being
men enough on the river train. 1t is time
that arrangements were made so that Min
nesota could receive her mail without
delay of ten or twelve hours.
This is another sample of reduction and
reform. Before the great Thomas H. James
has closed his contract to purify mails and
things, we expect the entire business of the
Department will be done bya few old wo
men and boys.

and from Riddlebarger's bill to
show that the Republicans were

went with some minuteness

that debt was not attributable to
any desire to repudiate, but to the

1t is said that the conspiracy for
the Cars assassination was Matched
at Geneva, and that five young men
were chosen from much larger
number who offered to throw the
bombs. The assassins were placed
along both of the routes which the
Car might take on his return from
the Riding School,..an the secret
mine in Little SadoWa street was
prepared in case the holder at.
tempt should fail. Of this mine and
its discovery the following account
is given: "1n January a peasant
named Kobosew took a cellar in a
little garden which had been stand
ing empty for two years and there
established a dairy. 1t struck the
police that his and his wife's mode
of living was not that of
the peasant class. He dressed
elegantly and smoked the best
cigarettes. The whole appear
ance of the couple, moreover, was
that of another and higher grade of
society than that which they were
ostensibly occupying. The district
police accordingly acquainted the
chief of the metropolitan police with
these suspicious circumstances, and
that official commissioned his men
to make thorough investigation of
the premises, using the pretext that
they were damp and unhealthy. The
search took place on the 18th in
slant, the day before the assassina-
ton. Nothing noteworthy was dis
covered. On Monday evening last
Kobosew came home drunk, and is
supposed TO have remained home
till the following evening with his
wife. On Wednesday the shop WAS
not opened, and the police learned
that the pair had decamped. An
other and more searching investiga-
ton was then made. 1t resulted in
the discovery of loose earth, bricks
and a crowbar under the sofa in a
room next 10 the shop. The wall
under the window was covered with
boards instead of bricks. These
were removed and a subterranean
mine was disclosed. Its diameter
was two and half feet. lit was en-
closed in wood. 1t was sunk twenty

An electrict battery for exploding

feet from the mine began q dyna-

that if the explosion had taken place
the surrounding houses would have
been blown to pieces. In the dairy
all the milk cans were found to be
filed with earth. In q Darkroom
were discovered boring tools. No
were found in the house.
On the table lay paper ronble
bearing these words: With this

minutes before the Emperor left the |

chasing horse thieves does not pay.
So far as the owner OF the horse is,
concerned, lie had better let horse.
thief and ALI go, than to give chase
with The expectation of ever getting
back his own, for if lie recover the
horse, it is better to take lire time
and money, and purchase another.
But what shall we do! Shall we
deal with the horse thief as pest
TO society, like dogs and wolves
that prey upon our tiocks! Or, if
by dint of great effort we sue
coed in capturing one now and
then, shall we insist upon the
state furnishing him with tenn
porary home until he .recuperates,
anu is ready for better work? Many
good people think hanging the
proper remedy, but catching must
preecde hanging aud what | am AT
ter is TO, find out the cheapest, and
handiest way, TO do, il, for am fully
satisfied that the chasing process
will give the thief the best OF the
bargain all the time. There have
been different plans devised TO de-
tect them, insurance, both stock and
mutual, but the most practical and
economical your correspondent is
able TO suggest, is, to have register,
say at each comfy site in the state.
Let each register book contain a
number ofIblank certificates of reg
lister for each horse registered, neat
" engraved and numbered, and ac-
eurately describing the horse for
which they are issued. Let this
be ruled OH the back so
as to admit of several endorse
nients and show each owners name.
since the horse was first registered.
These registers should all be printed
by one printer,an supplied from one
general office, say the capital. of the
state. When the horse is thus reg.
isiered, put mark on him that will
forever indicate that fact. / would
suggest to cut small hole in one or
both ears, with a punch, inserting at
the same time saturated cord, to
prevent gotching. and cause it to
heal smoothly. This il more con
venient TO do than branding, besides
il gives no chance for alteration, no
one marks horses in this way, nor
would they be likely to-, since it
would cloud the title, if they did,
unless registered. AS soon as this
system were made, known, mo one
could sell a horse thus marked
unless he could produce the certifi-
cate ofregister, and thieves could no
more handle them than they could
registered bonds, unless they would
counterfit the certificates, when
bank notes would be preferable.
But it takes time and money to put
this system into perfect working
order, and he who does it ought TO
be we'll sustained by horse owners.
