The question is frequently asked the
writer what provisions are being made
for public square-a park. If we
knew, we would most gladly give the
information. That we ought to have a
park started we do know, but further
deponent sayeth not. We presume that
the Lincoln Land Company in whose
hands this matter rests, will, not later
than the coming fall, set apart block
for that purpose, and with our water
facilities McCook ought in few years
to have fine public park.

w. A. Clute, who has been herding
Mr.. Sanders stock, met with quite an
accident, Monday. While riding rapid
~ after an obstreperous steer, his horse
;; got both front feet in hole, throwing
both rider and horse violently to the
ground. W. As arm was sprained and
is very painful, but it is not perfectly
safe to style him a COW boy yet.
f. S. Hill of Indianola was bitten
by rattlesnake, while assisting r. IL.
Hamilton in doing some surveying, the
fore part of the week. He was walk
ing ahead at the time, and as the grass
was pretty high, must have stepped on
his snakeship, who it seems struck him
without giving the usual warning, below
the knee. The usual remedies were
Immediately applied, such as tying a
string above the bite, making an ineis-
ion to make the wound bleed more
freely, applying mud, and chicken to
the wound, and Mr.. Hill started horse
back for Indianola. By the time he
reached that place he was using the
chicken to increase the animals speed.
By a plentiful supply of liquor the suf-
ferer came through all right.
We came very near having robbery
here on the evening Of the fourth. The
proprietor of the jewelry store, f. L.
McCracken, was absent from the city,
and Harry Ryan, his clerk, was playing
the violin at the Opera Hall. Before
leaving the store, Harry had placed a
light in the store and raised the blinds.
In the meantime Mr.. McCracken re-
turned on No. l, and having pulled
down the blinds, had retired for the
night. "After the opera was over"
Harry went down to the store to see
that all was o. K, and finding the
blinds down and lights out was greatly
exercised and the report that the jew
elry store had been again burglarized
was circulated, which was refuted by
the appearance of Mr.. McCracken,
whose peaceful dreams were disturbed
by the racket. Harry was greatly per-
turbed at all events, and didn't know
whether he was playing a shln-dig or
the Newport, at the hop which follow
ed the play.

A painful accident happened to Chas
Conrad, passenger brakeman, Satur-
day morning. The accident, we are
Informed, occurred through carelessness
on the brakeman's part, in passing be-
tween the mail car which was being
backed up, and the smoker, for link.
At any rate his hand was tearfully
mashed, and will never be of much use
to him any more. We presume that at
every recurring accident of this kind
sage advice is given and words Of eau
ton uttered, but these accidents con-
tinue to occur, as the army of cripple
shows, and strange it IS, they are usu-
ally to be attributed to carelessness on
the part of brakemen themselves.

be sure, after the race. And then it

THE ST PAUL DAILY GLOBE SATURDAY
CLOSED BY ATTACHMENT.
The Wholesale Fruit House of james
NJ. Smith & Co.
st. Paul Creditors Aver an Intent to Leave
Them Out.

About two years ago new wholesale fruit
store was opened on lower Third street by parties
who, it was understood, either came from Chica-
go or were assisted by parties in that city The
firm that opened the business here were James
M Smith and Charles W. Kirkland, and the firm
name was James NJ. Smith & Co. The firm con-
tinued the business here till
yesterday when it was closed
up by the sheriff under three writs of attachment:
one by Henry Swift, on claim of S9l5 35; one
by the Capitol Bank. on claim of $3.50; one
by Beaupre, Keogh & Co., on claim OF Sl67.91.
WHY THE CLAIMS WE'RE PRESSED.
The reason why the firm was closed up is that
it was understood that James M. Smith u Co.
were selling out the whole business and stock in
trade to j. X. Armsby & Co., of Chicago for the
purpose of securing the Chicago firm and de-
frauding the three st. Paul creditor above named.
WHAT TIE COMPLAINTS CHARGE.
The three complaints alike and charge
fraud and an attempt to cheat the st. Paul cred
ilors. The following is the substance of the
complaint in the case of the Capital bank:
That said defendent is partnership and that
the members Of it not any of them residents
Of the state OF Minnesota; that said plaintiffs
several demands were fraudulently created and
incurred by said defendant; that said defendant
has assigned and disposed of part of the prop
erty thereof, with intend thereby to
hinder. delay and defraud the creditors
thereof and the said plaintiff
and said defendant is about to assign and dispose
of the residue of the property with the intent to
hinder, delay and defraud his creditors and the
plaintiff; that the defendant is limited partner
ship, and while the firm and the members there
of were in contemplation insolvency, and actually
insolvent, and on the 10th day of July, 1884, and
during the night following that day said defend
ant. with the intent of giving preference to one
of his creditors, viz: j. K. Armsby & Co.
and the other creditors of said partnership
assigned and transferred its stock in trade and
other property to said j. X. Armsbey & Co., or
to one of the members thereof for the same, by
reason whereof the Capital bank asked for writ
of attachment.
THE SHERIFF IN POSSESSION.
The papers were placed in the sheriff hands
about o'clock yesterday afternoon, and he took
possession of the establishment and made an
inventory of the whole stock, and now has pos
session.
