He reports alse very considerable in
crease in the area sown in winter wheat
and large increase in that sown in rye in
the state this season, and remarks that
many of our large farmers are expert
menting with different varieties of winter
wheat, hoping to find those which will be
reliable, and thus relieve themselves par
tally, at least, from the hurry and loss in
seeding and harvesting incidental to de-
pending solely upon sprirgsown grain

SALTWATER GLOBULEs.

Thirty cents per bushel was paid yester-
day for white oats.
Charley Pettioone, formerly baggage
master On the Omaha road, has been pro-
NOTED to the position of conductor on the
same line. 1t is certainly deserved pro-
motion.
AS Townsend & Co. are the only pur-
chasers of wheat in this city at the pres
emit time, it is understood that they have
dispensed with the business of an inspec-
tor of the grain above named.
At the meeting of the city council on
Tuesday evening permission was given the
Excelsior Electric Light company to put
their wires on poles. The same privilege
will probably be granted other applicants.
The alley recently laid out leading south
from Chestnut street will pass through the
north part of John Coplien's store. Should
some of the barns on the line of the new
thoroughfare be torn down, the danger of
fire would be greatly lessened in that Vi
cinity.
John Lee was before the police court
yesterday morning and candidly owned up
that he was dead broke, Further, he had
no way to replenish his pockets with the
needful. Mr.. Lee was provided with board
and lodgings for ten days il the lower
part of the city hall.
Objection Will probably be raised by
some of The insurance agents in this city
in regard to electric light wires being
strung up on poles. But as no other sys-
tenn OF placing such wires has yet been
carried into successful operation the Still
water company will be compelled to adopt
the old plan or wait for some new inven-
ton.
At meeting of the ladies who control
the financial affairs OF the city hospital.

bers of the board of managers: Mrs. Geo

The charitable work carried on by these
and other ladies connected with the hos
pital are we'll known to most of the people
of this city. 1t is hoped that all who car

THE MEDICINE MEN.

Test Suit to Prove the Constutionality of
the state Medical Practice Act-The
Charges OF Unprofessional Conduct
Against DR.. Powell, Alias "White Bea-
YER" of the Winnebagoes.
The suit of the State of Minnesota OK
rel, VS.. David F. Powell, vs.. the State
Medical Examining board of the state OF
Minnesota was heard before Judge ST.
mons of the district court yesterday fore.
noon, and was argued orally, by E. M
Donaldson, Esq, of the legal
firm of Sleeper & Donaldson, OF
Brainerd, appearing for the plaintiff, and
Attorney General w. j. Hahn for the med
ical board, and submitted for considera.
ton and decision.
The action is brought by David F. Pow.
ell, formerly of La Crosse, and now re-
ported to be resident at Red Wood Falls
on writ of mandamus to compel the
newly constituted state medi
cal board to issue to him q
certificate to practice medicine
in the state, his application therefor hav-
ing been previously refused by said board
on the ground of unprofessional conduct
To this the board makes answer that the
certificate was refused because the plain
tiff publishes his portrait in the news
papers and advertises that he can cure all
kinds of diseases with one specific vegeta-
BILE remedy, for instance, claiming to cure
rheumatism by the external application OF
this single remedy and the cholera morbus
by the internal use of the same.
This allegation the plaintiff admits, but
says that the law of the legislature Great
ing this board of medical examiners is IN
constitutional and interferes with his
property right to practice medicine, and
furthermore, that this act delegating to
this board the question of deter
mining what is unprofessional
conduct is one attempting to confer ju.
dicial power which belongs only to the
courts and which is therefore void.
1t is stated that Powell is the American
name of the plaintiff and that his Indian
name is 'White Beaver" and that he is a
medicine chief Of the Winnebago tribe
In recent work issued in this
country entitled the 'sHeroes
Of the Palms." in which is given
biographical sketches of noted frontiers.
men, it is also said that the plaintiff in
this case is mentioned.
At any rate the decision of 7ndge 81
mons will be an1iously looked To-, as il
seems to involve the constitutionality of
the state medical practice act of Mime
sofa, this being practically test case.

THE FIRE ,coMMIssIox.
What President Delano Says About the

What PreStdenC DelanO says ABOUT the
Reorganization.
"All this talk about Commissioner Hugh
son ieaving his place on the fire board"
said President Delano, of that body yes
terday, don't you know is all bosh.
''That is so far as I am aware, don't you
know" he continued. SIN the first place
it isn't for me to say; the mayor makes
the appointment and the council affirms.
But 1 think Hughson is good man, and
my idea, don't you know, was to have an
insurance man on the fire board.
That is, think it was the intention of the
people to have some one representing the
insurance interest on the commission. We
have now got the department in pretty
good shape, and as matter of fact who
the commissioners are, so that they are
honest, doesn't make SO much difference
The tax payers and the business men ara
the ones we want to please; people look
at the department and say We are
putting great deal of money
into it, and so we are;
but We have had an object in view from
tie start, don't you know; our plan is to
place the department on a good footing,
and just es sosn as We have done this we
intend to go to the insurance men and say:
Here is first class department, well
equipped and well manned; now then we
are not having many fires, and when they
do come we are able to handle them:
the people have paid for
all this, and what for? Why, in order that
their property might be protected at the
smallest possible cost, and now we want
you to give them back their money by
lowering the rates of insurance.

are now getting things in good shape; we

Syllabus-A railroad corporation had
entered on the premises of land owner
and located it's line Of road and graded
and raised an embankment thereon for
a roadbed and track, and had used and OPP
Grated its road upon the same for several
years without having acquired the title to
the land SO occupied, or the right of way
over the same. The effect Of these
improvements, it is alleged, is to cause
damage to the adjacent lands by obstruct-
ing the natural flow of water therefrom
Thereafter in pursuance of negotiations
for settlement with such land owner it
purchased of him the land SO used as q
right of way, and hs for a consideration
agreed on conveyed the same by deed to
such corporation with warranty and also
covenanted therein that the party of the
second part therein, its successors and
assigns should quietly enjoy and possess
the said premises. Held, that the effect of
the deed was to grant the land and license
the maintenance of the road and embank-
ment as already constructed and existing
thereon.
The action was properly dismissed and
