COUNTING DEATH. The sneak-thieves

were fooling around the residence of
Mr.. VIII q. Richards, who was away
from horne, and Mrs. 4. and little
girl were alone in the house, occupying
chamber on the second floor. The
thieves raised window down stairs
and reaching inside secured a pair of

frightened off. Mrs. r. was armed with

cidedly warm for the thieves could she
have had an opportunity to use it.

MENTAL MALADY.-Mr. G.. Lamson,
of Beetown, brought his son Ernest,
lad of thirteen, to Lancaster Tuesday to
be examined by the physicians of this
place as to his mental condition. Ernest
has always been very precocious boy,
with large brain and very active
and inquiring mind. His parents no.
ticed in him more than a year ago
tendency to over study, and an occa-
sional flightiness, which gave them so
much anxiety that they removed him
from school. About this time he met
with an accident in falling from tree,
which may have had something to do
with his failing mental condition. The
doctors deemed it best to try home
treatment a while longer, and if his
condition does not materially improve
he will be sent to Mendoza for special
treatment

SHARP PRACTICE. = Hundreds of
copies of last weeks issue of Ed. Pol
locks Democratic sheet published in
this city, containing its cowardly at
tacks upon the Republican candidates,
were sent all over the county to persons
not subscribers to the paper. We have
reason to believe that one half of his
little subscription list has been obtained
by thus forcing his paper upon the pub
lie. Let all true Republicans be warned
in regard to this sneaking unprincipled
Democratic sheet, which is''for Blaine
only because by such policy it can the
more effectually impose upon its readers
and work to accomplish the defeat of
the Republican ticket. Let all Repub-
licans be warned not to allow them
selves to be forced into being subscribers
to that Democratic sheet, by any such
sharp practice.

Death of John w. Garrett.

DEER PARK, Nd, Sept. 26.-John W.
Garrett, president of the Baltimore 81 Ohio
Railroad company, died here at 5:25 this
morning. after protracted illness, in the
sixty-fifth year of his age.
He was a native of Baltimore. He. COM
pleted his education at Lafayette college.
Pennsylvania, when nineteen years of age,
He then returned to Baltimore, entered the
counting house of his father, where he re-
manned until elected director of the Balti-
more e. Ohio Railroad company in 1857
During the year following he was elected as
its president, and from that time the sue
cess of the road seemed assured. Through
his management all connections of the road
west of the Ohio river were made.
| His labors were continuous
Though he possessed robust
| constitution two years ago his health failed,
but he did not withdraw from active particle
patton in the management until about a
| year ago. About that time Mrs. Carrot lost
| her life by an accident, occasioning a shock to
| his nervous system from which he never re-
covered. A meeting of the directors of the
Baltimore d Ohio Railroad company was
held in this city this afternoon, when reso-
buttons were adopted expressive Of the sense
of the body at the loss which this CITY has
| just sustained. At meeting of the Stock
exchange resolutions of coincidence with the
family Of the deceased, and of regret, were
adopted.
BALTIMORE, Sept. 26.-The remains of Mr..
Garrett reached this city shortly after z this
evening, and were removed immediately to
Monticello, his country seat, from which the
| funeral will take place Sunday. The re-
mains were accompanied by his two SONS,
Robert aad L. Harrison Garret: Andrew
Anderson, assistant to the late president;
John w. Davis, assistant to the first vice
president of the road; VIM. VI. Clements,
master of transportation; DR.. Gerter. who
was his medical attendant and others. As
mark of respect to Garrett, the flag on the
city hall was at half mast, and a number of
the more prominent buildings showed like
mark of esteem in which he was held. The
buildings of the Baltimore 81 Ohio railroad
company are draped in mourning.

Two Woman Beaters and Six Vaga-

Before Judge Burr Yes
tauHou

eff this woman's story is true" said hiz-
zoncr yesterday, in referring to the testi-
mony of Mrs. Dora Weisner in the case OF
Emil Walther, who was arrested for assault
ing her, stno punishment would be too Sc
we're for the prisoner. She is an industrious,
hard working woman and has behaved her
self, but am afraid her mind is not clear
enough to justify conviction, and the ac-
cused will be discharged
The accused, a short beefy man with big
abdominal proportions, stolid face, small,
sharp eyes and head from which the eye
brows up is out of all proportion to the rest
of his beefy body, gave grunt of satisfac-
ton and walked out of the court room. Mrs.
Weisner related sad and apparently true
story of the fellows brutality. Walther
keeps saloon on Rice street and the trouble
grew out of the charge by Mrs. Weisner that
her husband squandered his own and
her earnings in his dram shop.
She testified that Walthcr had visited her
house last Saturday afternoon about $3.50
o'clock; that he had charged her with circu-
lating bad reports about him, and that he
locked the door and proceeded to
whip her After hitting her in the
face be knocked her down and
stamped on her. She screamed for aid
when he threatened to blow her brains out,
and when she said she would have him ar
rested he replied that she was too poor to
harm him. Incidentally she testified that he
had disabled her so that she had been una
BILE TO work for week, and that while she
was out washing her husband even carried
away the bed clothing and linen, and
pawned them FOR money to buy drink; also
that she had given him money to buy meat
and that he had procured the latter on credit,
using her name and spent the money for
whisky. She further testified that they had
sold a lot last spring for 1925, and that he
squandcred all the proceeds.
Stephen Christophel, another woman
Deater, was charged with assaulting Joseph
Inc SLanick; the latter very diminutivc
woman, wearing big red shawl, remark
able for lis color, then took the stand and
rolled up her sleeves in order to show the
black and blue marks where the accused had
p;nchcd her. The row took place in a
Polander's shanty, and she confessed that
she had whipped him also. AS it was free
fight he was fined only $40.
There were six buns in the bull pen, and
among them was John Ryan; his ear was
mangled and bloody, and looked as if it had
been tackled by dog while lying down.
When his case was called he jumped up and
ran over to the pulpit to give the court the
usual dose of reform talk taffy. Judge Burr
said that he didn't want to talk with him,
and he cut the interview short by givi ng him
zen days. The other buns went out for
five DAYS each

DIR. Dedolph Returns.

DR.. DedOlph and his wife have just re-
turned from the Yellowstone park, where
they have been for the last three months.
The doctor had a commission from the Ger
man government to make an examination
of the wonders of the park, and went out
there for that purpose. He and Mrs. De-
dolph made the whole tour of the park on
horseback and in the comfortable blackboard.
Mrs. Dedolph says it was rather rough for a
lady, but it is healthy. 1t is all outdoors
there, and as they camped out much of the
time they had good opportunity of seeing
all there was to see in the park. They de-
clare it to be a wonderful place, with its
5000 hot springs and 500 geysers. The doc
tor brought home from 5000 to 4, 600 speci-
mems, which he now has at his office. Be-
sides, he sent large number of cases of
mineral waters from the park to Berlin. The
specimens that he brought home consist of
petrilied wood, leaves, and other vegetable
substances, peculiar and choice stones. and
mineral formations. The collection is a
very valuable one, and probably has not its
equal outside of the park itself.

BROWN COUNTY DEMOCRATS.
Their Nominees for County officers.

Their Nominees for County Officers.
To the Editor of the Globe.
SLEEPY EYE, Sept. 25.-The Democrats of
Brown county held their convention here
yesterday. Delegates representing all
the towns but one were present.
Heretofore the call has been held until the
Republicans had called their convention,
but this year the Democrats have assumed
the aggressive and propose to be out in the
field against any nominations their oppo-
nents may make.
The convention met at Harmony hall, and
was called to order by the chairman of the
county committee, T. E. Bowen, who ad-
dressed the delegates, congratuatlng them
upon their victories of the past, by which
they carried the county last fall for the state
ticket by an overwhelming majority, and
contrasting their splendid organization OF
to-day with the situation Of only a few years
ago when there was no organization of the
party at all in the county. He referred also
to the power and force of the party at large.
In the face of continued reverses
for over quarter Of a century it
has maintained its organization as no
other party ever did under such adverse cir
cumstances, and holds to-day large ma
jority of the house of representatives, ma
jority of the legislatures of the different
states, and counts among its gallant sons
nearly two-thirds of the governors of the
states. He spoke of Gov. Cleveland as a
man in whom not only the Democratic party
but the better class of Republicans have faith
as an honest and ineorruptible official, and
closed by declaring that the signs of the
times indicated victory for the Democratic
ticket in the country at large as well as in
Brown county.
The candidates nominated by the conven-
ton are as follows: Representative, VIM.
Skinner; auditor, E. P Bertrand; register
of deeds, j. P. Current; Judge Of probate,
Jacob Brust; county attorney, Francis
Baasen; sheriff, John B. Sehmid; coroner,
7. r. Humphrey.
The ticket is conceded on all sides to be a
strong one, and gives excellent satisfaction
in this place, in New Ulm and in the country
towns.
The following resolutions were adopted by
the convention:
Resolrvd, By the Democrats of Brown
county, assembled in convention, that the
corrupt use OF money by candidates for
Office, in securing their election, is democrat
izing in its effect upon the purity of the bal
lot box, and is standing obstacle against
political reform. The candidates nominated
this dey we commend to the support of the
people, on account of their fitness and in
tegrity, unaided by corrupt means; and be it
further
ResO'red, That the present low prices of
wheat demand for the farmer legal protec-
ton against the exorbitant charges OF the
railroad companies and the unjust practices
of elevator men in grading wheat; that we
call upon the next legislature to pass law
regulating with justice TO all the grading of
wheat and fixing the charges for trausporta-
ton thereon; and that We pledge the candi-
date nominated By US for the legislature to
vote and use his influence for the passage OF
such { law in case he is elected.
