Columbus, Wis, Special: This village was
startled by the announcement Of the brutal
murder, Saturday night, Of Mrs. Hopkins
Morgan, 4 widow sixty-fve years Of ago, living
in . secluded location about one mile west.
The circumstance are peculiar and render
the tragedy very mysterious. Hopkins Morgan
was an eccentric Welshman who came to the
vicinity some twenty-five years ago. One OF
his boys WAS killed in an accident several years
ago. Soon afterward Morgan made a will,
giving all his real estate to his
other son, John, and his per-
sonal property IN money mortgages
will, and . bitter law suit followed. The will
was sustained, however, and Mrs. Morgan sur
rendered the farm to John, and moved on to a
6rnall place 4 mile distant Recently the prin-
Scipal OF some OF her indebtedness was paid,
fnd she may have had from 5000 to $4,000
IN her possession. The surviving son is about
thirty years Of age, and it is said can neither
read nor write. Being the only heir, excepting
bis mother, he had full knowledge of her plans.

Cremation of Laborers.

A west-bound freight collided with a gravel
train on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad one mile
east of Connellsville, Pa, Wednesday. A num-
Der of laborers, yariously estimated at from
twelye. to twenty, were killed and many were
injured The scene OF the disaster is on u sharp
curve just west of the Speer Sand works. The
freight train was heavily laden with ore. The
camp train consisted of six cars. 1t contained
about fifty men from the Pittsburg Southwest
ern railroad an their way to Ohio Ryle Falls
to work on the grading for a ouble track on
the east end of this division. The trains
We're going at a high rate of speed, and came
together with a terrible crash. ghe
engines remained on the track and teIescoped
each other into the smokesack, but the heavy
tenders jumped into the air and fell, the freight
tender upon its engine, the gravel tender back
on the first car in the rear of it. Here was a
scene OF death. Six men were killed outright
in this car, and four others, fastened down by
broken timbers, were roasted to death, the car,
catching fro from the overturned stove and
burning up before the stupefied survivors could
comprehend the awfulsitdation of their shrek,
ing companions. Three men escaped from the
rear, and one of them said that the fire could
have been extinguisod had water been applied
in time.

uorthoru PACIFIC prospsrlty.

j. B. Montgomery of Oregon says in the New
York Tribune; "Do you notice the large traf-
fc over the Northern Pacific? When I came
here early in February, the earnings were only
$500, 900 for the preceding month. stated
in print that the earnings in April would be
81 100000. The first eighteen days OF April
show my estimate to have been correct. In
May the earnings will be Sl,6o0,0on, and in
October, which will be one of the best months,
S2,O00,0N. The road will earn between sl5,-
100000 and SIG e0, 900 this year, and close on
to $50, 0oO, 600 next year. 1t will take $4,000
emigrants to Washington and Oregon, beside
what go to Dakota and Montana. Mr.. Sam
Houser, the Helena banker, told me that from
his section parties interested with him will
give 10000 tons of freight to the Northern Pa
cific in 1885, from mines that were wholly un-
developed before the road was built"

The National Conventions of the Anti-Monop-
olists was held in Chicago on Wednesday last
There were about 200 delegates present. Alison
J. streator of Ill. was temporary chairman.
Committees on credentials, permanent organ
ization and resolutions were appointed, one
from each state. The call Of the states showed
eixteen states represented The Presi-
dent said. The cause Of the smallness of the
convention was that many of its members were
too poor to pay their fare, n because monop-
olistic railroads refused to give them the same
rates which would be given delegates to other
conventions. The speaker said that all the
platform he wanted was, eve oppose all
monopolies, We believe all men are created
free and equal, and we believe in Gen. Benja-
min +. Butler. After the adoption of the plat
form, which is about the same as usual, the
convention proceed to nominate q candidate for
president. Gen. Butler was put in nomination
successively by Mrs. Todd Of California, Mr..
Rcodey Of New York and several others.
Blanchard CT Vermont put in nomination J. B.
Weaver Of Iowa. The chairman here an
nounced that he had Just had an interview
with Mr.. Weaver, and that that gentleman had
not only declared he would not except the NOM
nation, but was in favor of Gen. Butler.

The New York Panic Ended.

Bradstreets Journal of Saturday the 18th,
says of the financial outlook: ''The violence OF
the storm seems spent Whatever happens
now will be accepected as its after effects, and
with more or less feeling of resignation. Wheth-
er the worst has been seen is q matter which
no one can tell, though there's q snpertluity Of
assurance that il has. Those who have the best
reasons of knowing the situation are by no
saw that all is over, but privately they do not
express such confidence. But the scare has
gone. The wildness of fright cannot be re-
newed. ALT the large operators have contributed
and are still contributing to strengthen the
market We shall know by about the end of
next week where We stand. At present Wall
street is hopeful"

year is AZ for tho cultivation of the beet
ment Of its organic structure into this de-
gree OF maturity always involves s marked de-
crease Of saccharinp matter. During the early
growing season Of April and May this plant re-
quires bnt : moderate degree Of both heat and
turing it, foliage and form, q greater degree Of
both are necessary; and finally, that during
August and September, the period for the Ella
boration OF it's sacchnrine matter, it requires
uniformly dry heat. II much humidity pre-
wales at this season the plant will continue to
develop it's foliage and become deficient in sac
charine qualities, and consequently more or
less of Q failure. The soil best adapted to he
production Of wheat and rye will suit this beet
well. According to statistics gathered in Bel
gium, ahectare Of beets will yiielda cash value
of 322 francs more than wheat, 3367 more than
rye. 4l6 more than barley and Asa more than
oats.

as they are Individually liable all claims will
doubtless be paid in full. One of the directors
says there were no grounds for failure, but tho
president got frightened and precipitated mat
deposits. There were slight runs on the two
other savings banks, but they took advantage
of the timely notice and thus checked excite
ment: They kept their doors open longer than
night No checks were presented during the
