they were men OF means and well edu-
cared. They opened up cotton plan

CHICAGO, May 27.-The fftieth ami
versary of the establishment of Catholicism
in this city was celebrated in st. Mary's
church to-day, by imposing and appropri-
ate ceremonies, which we're participated
in by Archbishop Feehan and large num-

gave an interesting account of the arrival
here, half century ago, of Rev. John Ire
nmus st. Cyr, and the building of little
Catholic church dedicated to st. Mary, to-
gether with the subsequent growth of that
religion in Chicago. Among those who
Witnessed the ceremonies were Father John
Carroll, who visited this city sixteen years
before the founding of ST. Mary's, and Mr.
Taylor, the carpenter who built the frs
unpretentious structure. After the cere-
monies about 100 old settlers were served
with refreshments in the church parlors.

How to Treat Drunken Man.

A man who is thoroughly drunk
needs as much good treatment as any
other who from different causes is un-
able to take care of himself. His tenn
perature is lowered and he is liable
when in such condition to contract dis
ease, especially pneumonia. He should
be put to bed and kept warm instead of
being locked up in cold cell. Of
course it does not seem just, according
to the common way of looking at the
matter, to treat man well who has
voluntarily placed himself in such a
state; but, when you think that life
may be at stake, it does not seem so un-
reasonable A drunken man is almost
invariably in condition to contract
pneumonia, the worst form of this dis
ease being alcoholic pneumonia, and
very few of these cases recover. The
police should at least see that such a
person is kept warm and not suffered
to lie in the wet and cold.-Dr. a. E.

NICKERsoN's LITTLE DODGE.
Some time previous to the institution of
son applied to the war department for an
attested record of his military services.
He assigned as a reason for preferring
this request that he proposed going abroad
and expected to visit Egypt to witness the
military operations there incident to the
war then in progress between the English
government and the khedive, and as he
(Nickers on) was not graduate of West
Point, he desired to use as credentials an
attested copy of his military record. AL
though contrary to precedent, the depart
ment acceded to his request, and the pa
pers were duly prepared in the adjutant
generals Office, signed by Secretary Lin
coin and attested with the seal of the de-
partment. Maj. Nickerson did not go
abroad, but it now transpires that the pa
pers we're used upon the trial in the di-
vorce cause to establish the high standing
and record of the plaintiff in the suit.
The department of justice was informed
that the grand jury of Montgomery, Ala,
yesterday had returned six additional in
dictments against Paul Strobach, United
States marshal; eighteen against Thos.
Jefferson Scott, register of the
United States landoffice; nine
against Samuel D. Oliver, Mar
shal Strobach's chief deputy, and four
against W. B. Jackson and Deputy ex-Mar-
shall Osborne. All the above indictments,
except one for perjury against Marshal
Strooach, for rendering false, fictitious
and fraudulent accounts. To-day the
court sustained the Indictment against
Strobach in every count and particular.

SUNDAY AT MINNETONKA.
4 Pleasant Day D9'a,cS a CrO'cd to tie At
trGctiUe Resort.


trGctiUe Resort.
The bright sun of yesterday morning
called a great crowd out from ST. Paul and
Minneapolis to the lakes. The morning
trains were crowded, especially the Motor
line, and as the lakes offer so many ways
of spending pleasant day, that soon the
crowd scattered, each to seek their own
particular pastime. A great many, how
ever, preferred to take quiet ride on the
steamboats, to the upper lake and return,
while others sought solace from the cares
of life by tempting the fnny tribe to take
their chances of being hooked on the
sharp point concealed beneath the alIur-
ing minnow or struggling frog; and others.
particularly the younger people, betook
themselves to the smaller craft. and royed
to some of the many isolated spots and
found there that sweet comfort that the
time, place and tender affections of youth
can only give. In fact, Sunday inaugu-
rated the season at Calhoun and Mime
tonka, as 1t was the first pleasant holiday
OF the year. This week, especially after
Thursday, when evening trains and connect
Ing boats make night and morning fishing
IN the upper lakes convenient, will see the
rush for the season CO mmence.
There is plan of extending the St.Louis
on the south shore up as far as opposite
Spring Park, being discussed, and that,
together with the Manitoba on the other
side of the lake, each running sixteen trains
daily and alternately. The citizens of
each city can reach their homes from the
upper lake as easily as if they lived in the
suburbs of their respective cities. In fact,
it only takes forty-fve minutes to go from
the upper lakes to Minneapolis.
Spring Park, the terminus of the Mani
toba, is having boom at present, and
piles of lumber and many workmen can
be taken as indications of the great num-
Der Of cottages that are being erected at
this point. The concerted action of the
owners of the various cottages, in forming
an improvement association and the
filling up of the large unsightly marsh at
the south side all make Spring Park
very handsome place.
O. S. Gates has put his entire fleet con-
sisting of some sixty various kinds of
craft on the lake. They all look trim and
sea worthy.
Commodore Zimmerman will have COM
mand of the Belle of Minnetonka, and
Capt. Teller that of the st. Louis this sea-
son.
L. S. Burlington has bought five acres at
Spring park, and will build thereon one of
the finest cottages on the lake.
W. F. Harris will have charge of the
Hotel st. Louis.
The young ladies of Judson's institute
and Bennett tsemlnary, who are studying
German, have great scheme this summer
and that is to take their teachers, lessons
and pleasure one and all at the same time
at the lake.

An Elephants Punishment.

Though the white elephant, and all
elephants in Indo-China, are held in
very high honor, they do not always oc-
cupy a very creditable place in the fa-
bles of the people. There is long
story in the Non-thukpakkaranam about
an elephant, Yukunson, who went wild,
and rushed about the forest in mad
fashion. He came upon q clump of
bamboos, tore it down, and stamped to
death the fedglings of pair of hedge
sparrows, who had their nest there.
The bereaved parents were in great
tribulation, and futtered about, bewail-
ing their wrongs. A crow who flew by
was touched by their SORROW, and after
giving them deal of religious advice,
such as grudging Westerns would be-
lieve him incapable of knowing about,
he promised to see that right should be
done. The three of them, therefore,
went off and struck up an alliance with
the frog, and then enlisted the fly On
their side.
This partnership did not seem very
formidable, but the genius of the frog
and the crow, both of whom in the story
exhibit great wisdom and reasoning
power, brought about final triumph.
The crow flew over Yukunson, the ele-
phant, and pecked at his eyes. In the
wounds the fly laid eggs. These bred
maggots, and the elephants eyes be-
came terribly infamed and he lost his
sight. He wandered about the forest
in torture, and wherever he went the
hedge-sparrows flew chattering about
his head, abusing him and exulting in
his agony. TO his other misery was
added that of burning thirst. The frog
seated himself on the edge of a deep
abyss and croaked vigorously to make
the elephant think there was water
there. Yukunson followed the sound,
and, falling over the cliff, was dashed
to pieces.
Nevertheless, before he dies he moral
ICES on the wickedness into which even
the most pious are led, and acknowl-
edges the righteousness of the fate
which has befallen him. His repent
ance is real, and saves him from the
evil transincorporation which should
have been the portion of Sc bad an ac-
ton, but which would have been too
great punishment in the popular idea
for so estimable creature as the ele-
phant. t.-LO7ldO7I Sdt1Lrd0V ReUielc.

ANOTHER PISTOL, MURDER.

SrEUBENv11nE, May 27.- Two years ago
Alexander Mygatt, wife and eight children
came from England, settling in Mansfield,
Pa, where ne worked as a coal miner. His
wife left him on account of abuse and went
to Steubenville with John Bird, twenty
years old and fifteen years her junior. She
had three daughters ard one son with her,
Mygatt keeping the four older children.
She married Bird and lived with him.
Recently an older son wrote asking
permission to visit her. She an
swered to come. This morning Bird
went to the depot to meet her son and was
surprised to find Mygatt with the son.
Mygatt asked to see his wife and children.
Bird assented, provided he would raise no
disturbance. Mygatt agreed, and went to
the house and was calm for a time, then
became abusive and demanded that the
woman go back with him. She refused,
and Bird took her part. The two men
went into the yard il the rear
of the house, when Mygatt suddenly drew
a revolver and shot Bird in the back of the
head, instantly killing him. He then re-
turned to the house and struck the woman.
She fled, and her cries summoned help and
My0att was arrested.

Ell PAso, Tex, May 26.--A special to The
Chronicle sends the following by courier to
San Jose and on the Mexican Central and
thence to this point: Cerralilies, May "a
News is just received here that General
Crook engaged strong force of Indians
supposed to be composed of the Joe and
Locos band, together with stray renegade
hostiles, last week at Guyanapa on the
Sanora slope of the Sierras, in the neigh.
borhood of Casa de Gunos. There is greg
uncertainty as to the date when the fight
took place. The mountain spurs
at the point indicated are a
favorite resort of the Apaches
and are peculiarly inaccessible, which &C.
counts for the entrenched position CT the
hostiles, and the confidence which they ex-
hibited, holding their ground until thirty
three of their number had fallen, when
they broke and fed, closely followed by the
victorious American troops. They are
supposed to have made way towards Car
cay in Casa de Janos, in the Chihuahua
slope of mountains, where they will prob
ably make last stand. The operations
around Casa de Janos will be extremely
difficult as the country to be traversed is
literally without roads or even good trails,
and the mountain passes are admirably
adapted for surprises.
The town of Salmaripa, which lies in a
northwesterly direction, seventy five miles
from GuaYnopa, contains 1000 inhabit-
ants, and is the largest town on the Sonora
slope of the Sierra Madres. That Crook
will endeavor to penetrate into this almost
unknown region there is no doubt, and as
he advances the Mexican troops will draw
closer their Gordon on the Sonora side aud
the Mexican columns on his side atationed
at San Buena Ventura and James, will
keep complete line of communication,
so as to prevent the hostiles from escap-
ing from the vigorous pursuit of Crook
and Col. Torrez on one side of the noun
tains and Col. Gallard on this side. Crook
can, If he desires to do so, estab-
lish communication with the
Mexican forces cooperating on
this side of the Sierras by sending cou-
riers through the pass on the Mulites road,
and then heading for the Santa Maria
river, from here in less than two days. The
San Jose station, about seventy -four miles
from Ell Paso, on the line of the Mexican
Central, can be reached by the general and
placed in communication by wire with his
government. Every oae here, and in the
little town which has large American col
ony, is delighted with tfe news, for ii
means that the hostile Apaches are at last
doomed to total extinction, and the Sierras
and their vast mineral treasures are about
to be epened to the world of enterprise and
capital.
