robbery was committed in our neigh
boring village Of Kandiyohi, one night
this week. The store Of Peterson Il
Sjoberg was entered, and two over
coats and eight dollars taken. The
thieves also visited the residence of n
blacksmith in the village, and secured
$4,000 of his hard earned cash. To
effect an entrance to the store the
house of one of the projectors
was entered and the key removed
from his pocket. No clue to the rob

WHY THE CLERK GOT MAD.
The True story or an Unfortunate
Rupture In q Pike County Fire DE

partment.
The county clerk has resigned as a member
of the Milford fire department, of which he
together with fifty-foot hook and Ladder
truck and the ex-district attorney had lon.
been an important appurtenance. He wa:
led to sever his connection with the depart
ment by what he alleges was piece of de-
ception on the part of the ex-dstrict attor-
ney, by which deception his usefulness and
two panels Of board fence were simultane
ously impaired, and his dignity as citizen
a man, and o grandfather greatly injured.
One night Jake Schorr, the stage driver,
who was returning from late train at Port
Jervis, came dashing down the road with his
team, and crying "Fire!" "Fire!'' at the top
of his lungs.
Then there was hurrying to and fro among
the boys. The hook and ladder truck was
housed in the Crissman house barn. The
county clerk and the ex-district attorney
rushed for it at once. The former seized
hold of it at the rear, while the latter handled
the tongue. The night was very dark.
The truck was quickly taken out, and the
county clerk shouted:
"Now let her go, boys! I'll push behind and
you handle the tongue" Then he added to
himself: "rll see how much pedestrianism
there is in that district attorney, now, you
bet. He's got to be a good one if l don't
wind him before this run is over"
Away they went. The fire was up town,
three quarters Of a mile away. Before they
had gone half block the county clerk was
clearing ten feet of ground at every step
''Sweet Christmas' thought he, ''what an
Internal gait them boys have struck! If they
keep that up, the district attorney'll be dead
before he gets there, and I'll bet on it."
BY this time the county clerks feet barely
had time to touch the ground at all His hat
was gone, and he swung along behind the
truck like kite tail in the wind.
eff he amt runner, I'm blowedm he
said. eff they don't get to that fire blame
soon, or if he don't fall dead, I'm goner."
A still greater burst of speed on the part of
the truck lifted the county clerk on his feet,
and he stuck out behini the machine as
straight as coupling pole. An instant he
hung poised. Then he lost his grip. He shut
his eyes and went right on. He rushed
through space for fifty feet Then he me at
board fence. He took two panels Of it witt
| him as he went through it. AS he rested in
the middle of a fve-acre potato patch he
said:
''Well, I've heard of good running, but if
that don't rather knock the spots off anything
ever done, I'm three-legged pot!'
So, when the county clerk learned tina he
had been following that truck withJaket
| Schorr's horses hitched to the tongue and
taking it over the ground at twenty miles an
nour and that the ex-district attorney had
coolly ridden on it every step of the way to
| the fire, he felt hurt. He said that if they
| wanted to run a fire department on such
principles they could, but as for him, no.
Aud he resigned.

O'DOnneiI's History.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, Nov. "a search Of
the records of the probate office proves that
Patrick O'Donnell, Carey's slayer, was
by Judge Thoman, now civil SER
vice commissioner, April II, 1879. At the
time he swore he was native of Ireland.
The first papers were issued October, 1869,
O'Donnell asserting that he came to the
United States from Ireland in 1869. He
worked in rolling mills here until the fall Of
1879, when he went to Cleveland.

Is 1t Asiatie Cholera:

The Two Republics, the American pa- per published ID the City of Mexico, a generally reliable and intelligent journ al, has made the startling and unwel- come announcement of cholera in the State of Osxaca. The journal gives no particulars, which 1t ought to have done, nor does 1t leav- the point clear as to whether the malady Is the true Asiatic cholera or merely sporadic and local variety. If it Is only disease Of the cholera morbus type, the paper should have sad so. It may be remarked that there IS no ground for the assertion that it IS the genuine Asiatic disease, al though it is time when its presence may not unreasonably be looked for. This, together with the fact of rumors having existed several months ago of cholera in the extreme southern portion of Mexico, makes the matter look at least suspicious. The large towns of Central Mexico are now connected by rail, and if cholera does exist ID Oaxaca, and if 1t is the contagious and portable disease it IS represented by many of the doctors and medical writers, 1t may not be long before the horrors now witness ed in Lower Egypt will be repeated on this side of the Atlantic.

General Crook. Art-nwa Nruar

General Crook returned from his east ern trip Thursday, and seems to feel all right. He IS not at all surprised that the renegade Indians have not yet come n as 1t requires a long time for them to gather up their women and children and travel in a body. In the first place they have to make long detours to avoid Ob- servation, and the only subsistence they have IS mescal, there being no game ID the country. This mescal has to be gathered and cooked, a process requiring four or five days time. A hole Is made in the ground, the mescal is gathered and stripped of its tough covering, and .hen placed in this hole which has been heated for an entire day by fire. The mescal after being placed in the hole is covered with damp grass, aud the entire mas IS thus cooked by steam. A sup ply IS thus made of food which will last them four or five days, when another lot IS ordered and the entire routine repeat ed.
 For thIs reason 1t Is not at all surpris- ing that the Indians have not reported The report of a band of Indians ID San Bernardino awaiting escort to come ID Is not trds. General Crook says that the wives and children of the chiefs are all in. and that Loco and all the others wi surely come in. He merely laughs at the stories concerning Eis having sur rendered to the Indians. He says be knows what he IS goiDgto do with them, and seems to feel perfectly easy concern ing them. As to why the Indians are not disarmed he says, try 10 disarm them and they always have a lot of old guns which they bring in and surrender, keep ing hid the good ones. Also, that if you undertake to disarm Indians you give them to think you are afraid of them, and the only thing which influences an Inlian IS fear, and be thinks If others are afraid of hlm he has them at a disadvan- tage. He disbellsyes stories told of late of recent Indian raids or atrocities, and believes that all the renegades will soon be ip.

These are on top of the mountains
 The Peerless company have a well which gives them barely enough water for their own use To give away 8 bucketful is to deprive their own ami mals of that amount. Three-quarters of A mile from the well of the Peerless company, Smith, Murray * Go. have dug sixty-twO feet, and merely obtained B seepage of water. The air became SC foul that they had to suspend work They intend to get appliances to expel the foul air, when work in the well will be resumed There had been but little rain up to the Duh inst.
