A STRANGE MURDER.
A Bohemian Boy Of Sixteen Shoots and Kill
Young Lady Without Cause.

A Bohemian Boy Of Sixteen Shoots and Kills
Young Lady Without Cause.
A shocking tragedy. happened 1t Money
creek, in the to ~n Of Wiscoy, about eighteer
miles from Winona, in Winona county, on the
evening Of the 18th. It was about 8 O'Clock
and quite dark, when Miss Anna Martin,
daughter of Mr.. George Martin, was going
home with two other young lady friends from 4
neighbor's. Suddenly one of them exclaimed,
s'Thcre's man in the road!" At tho same in
slant shot was fred, and Miss Martin fell
mortally wounded. She expired in few min.
ntes. The assassin fed He was seen to jump
over the fence and escape in the darkness. The
ladies were horri6ed beyond description, but
quickly summone ed aid and the lfeless form of
their companion was carried to the house.
Search was made for tho murderer,
and the next morning boy named Jacob
Brucks was arrested, and finally confessed that
he had done the deed. To one OF tho officers
who asked him why he did the sho ootlng he re-
piled that his father had been in jail and said
It was good place and he wanted to try 1t too.
The victim was an engaging young lady about
rineteon years of age. Her sudden and shock
lug death has plunged the family and commu-
nifty into deep grief, and the feeling ran 30 high
that but for the promptness Of the officers in
bringing the boy to Jail he would very probably
have met summary justice. The object of the
crime is syet Z my stery. It may perhaps be
cleared up when tho proper inquiries are made
The boy comes from quarreleome family,
and it is likely that he inherited the depravity
which alone could prompt him to commit mur-
der.

Five days OF rain during fair week were four

There will be no court marshal in the case of
Sergeant Mason. His offense is one against
military, not civil law. 1t is now not thought
at the war department that there will be any
trial at all. The opinion that Mason was not
in his right mind when he did the firing is pre-
valent. One Of the officials Of tho war depart
ment said the civil authorities may move in the
matter and prosecute, but it is not thought they
will. The district attorney has not taken act-
ion, and says he has had no official notification
of the shooting.

SENATOR Don CAMERON is q HIGH tariff
man, but he thinks revenue of $40, ,OOO,-
oo0 per annum from tobacco is too much.
Said be: Il would take Off the tax from to-
bacco'for instance, the manufacturing of it.
You see every sailer on the steamer smokes
and chews; every man on that piazza smokes !;
every boy smokes; all the farmers chew
tobacco; all miners, laborers, deckhands
and mechanics use tobacco in some form.
and they pay their tax on it. Now take
that OF, and all these consumers at once
perceive a lightning Of this load" Mr..
Cameron thinks we are paying off the ma
tlonal debt too fast and that something ought
to be done to relieve the people of some of
the burdens of taxation.

THE AULD FIDDLE.
Touching Reminisence Of "Auld Scotia.


At a banquet held in Huron, Canada,
Mr.. James Dickson, Scotch emignnt,
narrated the following touching reminis-
ence Of ''Auld Scotia
II is now forty eight years since first
came to this country. was then little
more than a boy, fresh from Edinburgh
university, and had come with my father
to bear the trials and privatioas of early
pioneer life in the backwot DIS. My
mother and the other members of our fam
a wilderness lay between them and US.
Our worldly possessions, when we reached
the Huron tract, consisted of two chests.
which had been brought from Hamilton in
an OK cart. Attending to the duties which
devolved upon us for our immediate needs,
we sat down t' ponder ON the best course
to pursue in our battle with the mighty
forest. After a while my thoughts went
from our present surroundings to the dear
ones at home in the old land. and posi-
bly, my fathers thoughts drifted thither-
ward also. Finally he said to me:
"Jeames, wad ye open the kist, an see
if tn feddle is a richt?"
did as he told me, for, knowing him to
be good fiddler, I thought the tunes of the
old land might cheer us both. On open
ing the chest found the fiddle and b md
ed it to my father.
He took the violin from my hands, and
after thumbine the strings, touching the
bridge and tapping the sounding board, his
face illuminated as he CALCULATED:
'She's a RIGHT, Jeames; she's a richt."
He then rubbed the resin on the bow,
and drawing the latter across the strings
struck up one of the grand old Scotch airs,
"The Boom of the Cowden Knowes,"
which he had often played for mother and
the BARNS in ''Auld Scotia. When he had
finished the first tune he played another
and yet another, and as the beautiful melo-
dies rose on the air could not help think
ing:
Father, ye play the fiddle great deal
better now than ye ever Gid in Scotland.
The music was finished at last. my faith
er relinq,ished the instrument to my hands
for safekeeping in the chest, and saw
then what never saw before or since--the
tears trickling down his cheek.

Another American Horse Victory in Englan
The race for the st. Leger stakes at the
Doncastor September meeting, 18th, was
won by the American horse, 1roquois, Geal
quist second, Lucy Glitter third The race
Was intensely exciting, immense sums of money
being 1t stake. 1roqnois' victory is extremely
popular He and Archer, the rider, were en-
Enthusiastically cheered
The Doncaster race occupies q peculiar po-
sition on the English turf. 1t is the chief con-
test Of county famous for it's love OF sport
Ascot has its royalties, Ensom it's cockneys,
Goodwood its farmers and Newmarket it's
squires. Doncaster has for it's clients the whole
population of Yorkshire. And the st. Leger
has for Yorkshiremen . value for which no
equivalent can be found. They consider it
the crowning glory Of the three year-o'd's ca
reer. The 1000 guneas is held by them to
have merely put him through his PAGES, the
Derby to have given him claim to considers
ton. the St Leger to settle his merits beyond
apossibility Of appeal.

MARY A. L1vERMORE attributes the ex
cluslon of women physicians from the late
medical congress in Londo IN to the influ-
ence OF Sir William Jenner, the court
physician, but says it is true that Queen
Victoria has set her face like flint against
any movement Of women to enlarge the
area OF their lives; and that while the high
est lady OF English society frowns upon
women physicians, and resent their en-
ployment or consultation by any lady with
IN her small but exclusive circle, their gain
In the community will be small, for most
English people would sooner avow indif-
ference to their God than their queen, and
disregard of his requirements than ne .lect
OF her whims. Altogether the prospect of
woman's progress in England seems to
Mrs. Livermore as very discouraeine.

The paragaphers of the newspaper press
are delighted with the only admirable thing
Charles Dudley Warner finds in modern
Journalism. He says: II think we NAV
claim superiority over English dailies in
our habit of brief, pointed editorial para
graphing. 1t is the life OF the editorial
page. cultivation of these, the printing
OF long editorials only when the lucidatiou
of subject demands length, and the use of
the space thus saved for more interesting
reading, is probably the line of our editori-
al leyolution."
