yesterday morning he came into Mitsch's
drug store, Seventh and St. Peter streets,
and called for five cents worth of arsenic.
He stated that he was employed in the
shop of August Roedler, on Washington
street, and that the place was so infested
with rats that he wanted to see if the
poison would not effect radiance. With
this explanation he signed the book as re-
quired by law and was given the pow
der. Instead of going to
the shop he repaired to
his residence on College avenue near Oak
street and swallowed the deadly dose. A
short time afterwards his wife noticed that
something was wrong and it was ascer-
tanned that he had taken the poison. DR..
Boardman was called in ana powerful
antidotes were given, with the result to
prolong and save his life. Schenz has
been married about year and the attempt
is ascribed to domestic infelicity.

Six years ago the empress of Germany
announced flat she would henceforth dec
crate with a golden cross every female
servant who had passed forty years of her
life in the same family. An official list,

Certainly the United States cannot.

SENATE.

The senate convened at the usual hour
Yesterday, nearly all the senators being in
their places. The broad smiles on the
faces of the Democrats and anti-Windom
Republicans showed the satisfaction which
they felt at the. result of the senatorial
contest, and those who were not on the
prevailing side were evidently resolved to
make the best of the outcome. The chap
lain read from the scriptures words of a
soothing nature and prayed that God
would bless Senator Sabin. He then turn
ed his attention to the late Senator Win
dom. and prayed that he might have di-
vine grace to bear the humiliation and
disappointment of his defeat with becom-
ing meskness and fortitude. Routine
work was then proceeded with, which re-
suited IN the introduction of three local
bills, which were promptly passed under
suspended rules, and the passage of one
senate and one house bill in their
regular order. In committee of
the whole the bill relating to chattel mort
cages on wheat and other grains was given
most thorough airing. The millers and
elevator men argued that they must have
some protection in buying grain brought
to them. Under the law as it now stands
producers of grain can mortgage it while
growing and then carry it to market and
sell and get their money forit, after which
the mortgage may collect its value
again from the innocent purchaser. The
bill was for the protection of the innocent
buyer. The opponents of the bill claimed
that it was necessary for farmers to
have credit to assist them
in the raising of their
crops, that by the enactment of the bill
they would be deprived of the basis of
their security, and that moneyed men
would refuse to lend them the means to
secure their crops. The bill was amended
so as to apply to grain offered in the or
binary course of marketing, and also so
as not to apply to flax seed, IN which form
it was recommended to pass.
The afternoon session was wholly In
committee of the whole, and large num-
Der of bills were discussed and reported
back with appropriate recommendations.

Office box on the lamp in front of Don
Cameron's house. The dog thinks he is
kept there to brighten intruders away from
the letter box, and that the people who put
letters in the box are trying to steal the

like entering wild beasts den. The dog
bowls and yowls and rattles his chain and

puts Mr.. Robson, at the other end of the

with affectionate pride. At all events, I

The Presentation of Elliott Barnes New
Play at the Opera House Last Evening.
It was announced yesterday that, owing
to the snow blockade between st. Paul and
Sioux City, the Elliott Barnes "Only a
Farmers Daughter company" would not
be able to make connections in time to fill
their dates at the Opera house last night
and tonight In spite of blocked roads,
slow trains, etc., the company reached
st. Paul yesterday afternoon,
and last night the box Office was thrown
open for the sale of tickets as usual. When
the curtain rose, it was to comparatively
slim audience, as but few of the amuse-
ment goers of the city were aware of the
performance, owing to the misunderstood
ing as above stated. What the audience
lacked in numbers, however, it made up in
interest and enthusiasm, and an artistic
and very enj oyable performance was
given.
"Only Farmers Daughter" has been
given in st. Paul before, and the plot is
therefore familiar to most theater hab-
itues. Briefly, the play has for pivot
the Vaccinations of an adventures and
her paramour to obtain the money of a
wealthy author, who is welded to a hum
BILE country girl, the welfare of the happy
household being involved in the schemes
of the intruder, who seeks to com
pass her ends by estranging

The latter is about to succumb, when he
is warned of the impending disgrace and
villainy by dream.
The cast is an effective one and the sew
eral powerful situations of the plot are
very cleverly enacted. The adventures is
impersonated by Agnes Herndon who ap-
pears in the double role of
Lizzie Stark and Nine. Laurent
This lady possesses a graceful and com
handing presence, and several of he1
scenes are marked by genuine dramatic
fervor. Her toilets are especially elabo.
