Another Side Of the KimbaH Suicide Story.

Dsmocrnt: Under the head line, A wreck
cd Life, the Gt"he. UHm~c,W published on
Oct. %, as a special from SocOrro, n. NJ,
the story Of A. W. Kimball, who claimed
that a St. Joseph woman, Ella NJ. Bascom.

ed upon the woman, who resides with her
mother, Mrs. Hunt, at No. 1411 Powell
street. She states that after receiving
divorce from Bascom she engaged in busl-
ness as a dressmaker at Austin Mimi,
where she became slightly acquainted
with A. W. Kimball. the county clerk.
Selling out her business there, she came
here, and, representing that he had pro-
cured a divorce from his former wife,
married Mrs. Kimball. They then went
to SocOrro, where she conducted dress
making establishment. He was employ
ed in the office of the county clerk, and,
she says, wasted her earnings in drink
and at gambling. They separated. and
she returned to St. Joe. after which his
former wife ascertained his whereabouts
and threatened to follow him. Finding
himself thus entangled, he ended his
career by suicide, but she did not learn OF
his death until yesterday. This is the
story Of Mrs. Kimball, who is in delicate
condition and greatly distressed: Her
family are highly esteemed members OF
the Presbyterian church, whose pastor,
Rev. DR.. Campbell, otficiated at her mar

Besides it costs the farmer no more to
raise grade or full blood animal that it
does a scrub, and, in fact,
many breeders of large experience
claim that it does not cost as much, and
then every farmer ought to take pride in
having just the best stock that money can
buy, for there is always market
for the best, while the inferior
frequently goes begging. No one who
visits the fair should fail to see this su
perb stock of Mr. DeGraff's, not alone be-
cause it was bred in Minnesota and proves
that the state cannot be surpassed in this
direction, but because it is, or should be, a
real pleasure to see the best, and we feel
that we can safely say, after many years
experience with cattle, many of which
were bred expressly for the show ring, that
the Lake Elysian herd of Mr. DeGraff can
not be equaled anywhere. either for beef,
milk, butter or cheese. What has been ac-
complished by him in the production of
such magnificent stock can be accom-
plished by other farmers and breeders in
southern Minnesota, and they should lose
no time in following the example set by so
practical man. Visitors to his stalls will
always find courteous, gentlemanly attend
ants, who will cheerfully and pleasantly
answer all questions in regard to this
famour herd, which is justly the pride of
the state.
We learned from Mr.. Anderson, Mr.. De
CRAFTS gentlemanly herdsman, that he
also breeds Jersey cattle, Cotswold
and Southdown sheep, Berkshire and
Poland China hogs. He also has
herd of twenty very fine elk on his
farm. He visits all the fairs, attends the
stock sales and always buys the best that
can be procured, and so establishes a re-
putation second to none as breeder of
superb stock. While young in years he
has shown himself to be superior in breed
ing to high standard, equal to that OBJ
tanned by the Andersons of Kentucky or
Potts of Illinnis. and notwithstanding his
immense railroad and other business, he
finds time to give personal attention to
his. stock, and in this matter has succeeded
beyond his most sanguine expectations.

Minnesota as a Cate State.

A few years ago it was boldly asserted
that fine cattle could not be successfully
raised IN latitude so far north as Mime
sofa, and that for choice cattle the warmer
sections must be depended upon. Not a
few people in New York state, Kentucky,
Missouri and portion of southern Hi
nois, looked upon Minnesota as being SO
far north that the winters lasted more than
half the year, while the springs and falls
were SO short that there was no summer
left to mature crops, consequently the cat
tie of the state would of necessity. he
stunted in their growth; could not posi-
bly, mature, and that fine beef cattle and
mich COWS could not be had here.
Such remarks as those were quite coumon.
and those who had not given the matter
thought and attention believed that they
were true, but happily, man sometimes in
vestigates for himself, not always being
inclined to accept as true the theories ad-
vanced by biased minds, and when he does
investigate, he realizes that very often
men, through prejudice, make assertions
that cannot be borne out by the facts
in the premises. No move false state
ment could have been uttered than that in
relation to the climate of the state being
detrimental to the growth and develop
ment of cattle.

turn, but was passed at the eighth by Ham

Down the half Fly Dance was given his

he held to the finish, though running the
last quarter under a pull. Mambrino

adam ran head and head race for about
third of a mile. when Fly Dance began to
pull away, opening out lead of
four lengths at the head of
the home stretch. At the distance, Mr..
Legg, owner of Fly Dance, told his jockey
to give her her head and she jumped away
as if shot out of a gun, showing that her
great speed had not been called for.

ADJUSTMENTS.
JOHN MCCULLOUGH.

The great tragedian called out big au-
dience last night to see him in Sheridan
Knowles fve-act tragedy, ''Virginius."
Mr.. Mccullough was greeted with cheers
the moment ne made his appearance, but
he did not at the outset seem quite him
self. The daring journey over Bear Tooth
range which he recently made
in company with Gen. Sheridan, seemed to
have left some traces in his carriage,which
gradually wore away during the evening.
The Rocky mountain air had certainly
not weakened his strong and eloquent
voice. There isn't much that is new to be
said of ''Virginius," or of Mr.. McCullough's
acting in the title role. The
fierce passions and cold judg-
ment of the Roman father
are brought to mind more forcibly, per-
haps, by John Mccullough than any other
actor. 1t would certainly be very difficult
to suggest an improvement in manner of
rendering ''Virginius" last night. Mr..
Mccullough comes very near our early con-
ception of Roman, and whether our early
conception could have been bettered must
remain an open question. 1t seems
to be generally conceded that as regards
Mr.. McCullough's ''Virginius," and ''Gladi-
ator," the public are not in need of the
services of critic. The public certainly
would not crowd into theater to see any
other man in those plays. The tragedian
has been highly commended for having a
good company to support him.
They appreciate the fact that he
has not the conceit of
some stars who force inferior and very dis
agreeable companies upon their patrons.
Mr. Edmund Golfers Appius Claudius was
wholly acceptable, as was also Mr.. Henry
Chanfrau's Marcus. Edward Wilson's sol
dier played no insignificant part. Miss
Kate Forsyth made very fair Virginia.
The ladies all did well. Tonight MIR.
Mccullough will appear in "Othello.'

ST. JOseph's Hospital.

The two mild cases of smallpox at this
well-known institution have yielded to
treatment, and both the sisters have SO far
recovered that one of them is on duty and
the other will be to-day or tomorrow. A
foolish story was set afoat yesterday that
one of the sisters had died, that the other
was at the point of death, and that the
hospital would be closed for
several weeks in order to prevent the fur
Their spread of the disease. This is simply
one of those foolish stories that are al
ways set afoat whenever any unusual dis
ease makes its appearance. The attack of
smallpox on the sisters was very mild in
deed and readily yielded to treatment, so
that the first one attacked has entirely re-
covered and resumed the performance of
her duties. The other sister is much bet
ter, is improving and will without doubt
soon be out All talk about closing the
hospital is foolish, out of place and wholly
unwarranted. There is not now, nor has
there at any time, been the least idea of
closing the hospital. 1t is running now
just as usual and will so continue to run
right along without any intermission.

The Electricity Gets Loose.

The electricity began cutting up capers
in Rice park last night. The electric wire
is distributed around the park
to the burners, by means of connec-
tons made on the trees. Last night it was
discovered that the body of the tree close
to the wire was on fire, and the electric
sparks shot out in very lively manner.
Officer Bremen and Jaile. Jessrang went
out there and poured water on the
fame and extinguished the fire
but in short time it was
burning again as cheerfully as it did before
the water WAS put on to it. Again they
mounted the ladder and put the water on
and extinguished the flames. Again and
again this was repeated until the hour OF
twelve arrived and the electric light war
extinguished by limitation. 1t is impossi
bic to tell how much the tree was injured
but it was thought that the injury was sufR
Gent to kill it.
