An Underground Timber Claim.


Mitchell telegram: While J. E. Hill
and Peter Souvinier were digging we'll
for Engineer Steinmetz, in the south part
of the city, they came across hemlock
log about three feet in circumference, at
a depth of twenty five feet below the sur
face. The length of the tree is not known,
as they cut it through and continued the
we'll; 1t was lying almost horizontal,
and Mad doubtless been blown out BY the
roots, as the workmen, in tracing the log
from the sides of the we'll, found the up
turned roots, which, as we'll as the tree,
were not petrified, but were i'll q good
state OF preservation. The place where
the welli dug is on high rise of
ground, and hence the earth could not
have been washed over the tree, which
might have been the case had it been
found at the same depth on low piece
of ground. The discovery is regarded
with great wonder here. and there are
numerous theories as to how the tree be.
came imbeddei at SO great depth and
on high ground, and as to how the tree
and even the bark have been SO well pre-.
served, perhaps for many centuries.

There have been introduced in the
senate of the United States and in the
house of representatives two bills hav.
ing in view the same object, and that
object is the admission of Dakota into
the union as one state. These bills were
introduced at the instance of small
but influential aggregation of politicians
at and near Bismarck and if one of them
succeeds it will be through the personal
efforts of that combination. It ID no
exaggcration to say that nine-tenths OF
the people of Dakota are opposed to the
admission of Dakota as whole and ore
consequently opposed to the provisions
of these bills. The only place in Dakota
where there is any solidity Of sentiment
in favor Of admission as whole is at
Bismarck, and in almost every other
town and city in the territory there
is solid sentiment against the
scheme. And this latter sentiment is
based upon the best of reasons, chief
among which is the great size of the ter
ritory and the consequent difficulty in
conducting its governmental affairs from
one center. But the one reason which
should ensure the defeat OF these meas.
ures is that the populace of Dakota do
not want them passed. A clause in the
bills appropriates $4,000 to pay the ex-
penses of conducting constitutional
convention for the whole of Dakota.
Such an expenditure would be entirely
useless, as the people of Dakota would
never ratify any constitution which
spreads over the entire extent of our ter
ritory. They would 60 on voting them
down so long. at least, as the present
generation existed, preferring forever q

by that chief Of corruptionists
N. G. Ordway, and his followers. Know
ing the tsentiment of the masses upon
this subject, We advance the suggestion
that they enter their protest where it vii

singular Conduct of Frank Hutch
ings, Who Strangled His
Mistress.
He Gives Himself up to the Authorities,
Expressing His Willingness to be
Hanged For His Crime.
But is Afterwards Persuaded to Plead
"Not Guilty" to Accommodate
His Attorneys.

SAN Francisco, CAL, July 24.-The
case OF Frank Z. Hutchings, who
stranged his mistress last Wednesday, is
the most remarkable in this country.
After numbering the woman he gave him
self up to the authorities and confessed
the crime with all the details, He said
he was willing to be hanged Monday
he pleaded guilty of the crime in the
Police Court, and was taken before Judge
Wilson in the evening and again pleaded
guilty, refusing the aid of attorneys.
The Judge, after hearing the brief,
but conclusive evidence of the prosecu-
ton, found the prisoner guilty of murder
in the first degree. Judge Wilson was
greatly impressed with his responsibility
in determining the degree of the prison
er's guilt. He appointed three attorneys
for the prisoner, and yesterday when
brought into court Hutchings withdrew,
through his attorney, the former pleas Of
guilty. Hutchlngs being asked If this
was his desire said; II would rather
plead guilty, but it seemed can't do as
! wish, SO | will plead not guilty and
stand trial 10 accommodate them
The Court accepted this remarkable
statement as satisfactory, and the trial
began yesterday. 1t is contended by some
that Judge Wilson has clearly avoided
the performance Of his duty, as the penal
code provides that the Court shall deter
mine the punishment Of person plead
ing guilty to murder. Hutchings viii
now stand some chances of i jury trial,
and the repeated appeals, which pro-
longed the life of Wheeler, the stranger,
over three years. The only suspicion Of
Hutchings being insane arises from the
fact that he pleaded guilty.
