SUPPOSED CASE OF PoIsoNING.-About 9
o'clock last evening George Wittenbrock
and f. NJ. Coons came to the city from
Hoptown and informed Sheriff ]. w. Will
son that two men, L. j. Hannev and Her
man Lair, bad been found by them about
| 5 o'clock in the hop field of Henry Witten-
brock in a dying condition. One of the
| two. Hanney, recognized Mr.. Wittenbrock,
calling him by name, but the other was
| speeches. and apparently in the last throes
of death. The cook, a man who had been
quarrelling with the hired men, is sus-
pectcd of poisoning them. The Sheriff
and officer Sullivan went out to investigate
the case.
Later-About l o'clock this morning
| Sheriff Wilson, officer Sullivan and Dr.
| Nixon returned from Hoptown, and re-
ported that they found Lair and Hanney
| lying insensible on the ground, where they
| had been reclining since about , P. NJ, yes
terday. The experienced eyes of the officers
soon discovered the fact that the only
| poison that had been used in the case was
in the form of Intoxicating liquor of some
! kind, and upon bringing the men to their
| senses one of them stated that they had
| found a can of Chinese gin on the ranch in
! the morning and had filled themselves
with it. A more disguised trio than the
| officers and the doctor would be hard to
| find in Sacramento this morning.

handsome and costly safe, broke the money
drawer away from the counter and rified it,
bent the meat saws double, mutilated the
day book. strewed large quantities Of spices
over the floors, destroyed a large quantity
of sausages and tore up things generally,
even TO wrecking the telephone instrument.
When discovered he resisted desperately,
being armed with two large meat knives,
and deiied arrest. 1t took several officers
to overpOwer him, and one of these was
badly bitten about the hands by the power

doubtless be sent 10 Waupun.

AffenInfed Suicihe.

A messenger came in from West Buse,
says the Fergus Falls Journal, on Saturday
afternoon for physician. A young, un-
married woman named Balmer had at
tempted to commit suicide on the farm of
Sol Smith in Buse, by taking dose of red
oxide of mercury. A doctor went out at
once, administered emetics, and it is
thought the woman's life will be saved. The
cause of her attempt at self-destruction was
because she is enciente and could find no
father for her child. She had previously
been Intimate with Mr.. Smith, and it is al
legged that he was the author of her troubles.
She desired him to marry her, but he de-
clined and asserted that she had had more
to do with other men than with him. He
paid her way to Wadena. where her friends
live, but she walked all the way back ar
irving at his farm in Buse, and with the re-
suit stated above.

Drowned in wall Lake.

A small party drove out to Wall lake Sum
day. says the Fergus Falls Journal, for the
purpose of fishing and enjoyment. 1t con-
sisted of Eugene Richmond and Clyde NJ
Sage both in the employ of C. ID. Baker, of
TINS city, and Victor Cohen of Deer Creek. an
old friend of the others, a cousin of Fred
hatzky and employed in the store Of the lat
ter. Along about noon the boys went in
bathing. Cohen, who was a capital swimmer
was padding around i'm about thirty feet of
water, at some distance from the others,
when he was suddenly seized with a cramp
and before any aid could reach him sank for
the last time. His companions gave the alarm
at once, and many Intellectual efforts were
mace to recover the body. The quest was
abandoned at nightfall and began again Mon
day morning. Mr.. KatZky of Deer Creek
was notified by telegraph. He went at once
to the scene of the tragedy, where the bottom
OF the lake is being dragged for Cohen's re-
mains, but no traces of the body have been
discovered. Cohen was young fellow of -
or %, bright, intelligent, Trustworthy and
generally liked. He had relatives in and
about Deer Creek estimable people, who are
almost broken hearted.

Brown still Talking.

special 10 the GlODe.
Dies MONIES, Ia, July 7.-Mr. Brown
makes a reply to the governors statement.
in which he uses more temperate language
than formerly. He says the conditions
named by the governor are artfully
drawn so as to make compliance Herewith
impossible, that when he had met them as
he has before, the governor would claim he
was not satisfied with the proof furnished.
Mr. Browns statement thathe has fully ac-
counted for all funds coming into his hands
under color of office is supported by several
afiidavits, which have heretofore been given
to the public. He further says he could
supply any omissions in what is required by
the governor if he could have access TO the
books and papers of the Office for short
time, for every document and paper that is
in the Office now was there when he
left it, unless they have been
stolen or destroyed, and all there is now
was there then. He charges the governor
with not acting in good faith with him. If
he will put his demands within the range
Of possibility, he is ready to comply with
them. He declares he has received no
money under color of office which he has
not paid to the state treasurer and to this
he is ready to make oath. The charge of
embezzlement is sufficiently refuted by the
fact that the grand jury refused to indict
him and the governor has not brought any
action in the courts to recover the money.
So far this unpleasant contest has been car
ried on in the newspapers. The people are
beginning to think it is time to transfer it to
the courts, where it may be finally adjud-
icated

1t has been mentioned that nearly Q. 900

Gov. Ziebach, in his Citizen, estimates
from the returns received that less than one
in ten of the voters of South Dakota voted
for delegates TO the Sioux Falls convention,
and says the best thing the delegates can do
is 10 adjourn without undertaking to trans
act any business. A convention chosen by
so small fraction of the electors is not
likely TO receive much consideration by con-
gress.
Hon. Mark Ward is reported to insist
that he Is not married to the Barnard song
stress that he ran off TO Vermont with,
away from Jack Crow of Mitchell. He re-
ports that in her disgust at becoming
Crow and the mother of little Crows. She
appealed to him as a seventeenth cousin
and he came 10 the rescue. If ne did not
want TO marry her his course is thought to
be still more cenSurable.
As showing the inequality of taxation I'M

One town will pay three times as much on
the same property as the other. Both as

So far the operation OF universities by
the territory does not seem a promising ex-
pertinent. The northern one at Grand
Forks has a quarrel on hand that is to be
investigated by the governor. The south
university at VermilliOn has had a wrangle
that left only five pupils i'm attendance at
the close of the late term. DIR. Epstein,
until lately professor, complains bitterly
that he had bad treatment by the university
directors, and charges that the institution
is conducted by and in the interest of pO-
ltical and sectaTian combination. 1t costs
the territory thousands of dollars and Gov.
Ziebach thinks it would be well to present
the property 10 the town TO run.

What the BOnrd of Visitors Report
and Recommend.

WASHINGTON, July THE board of
visitors to the West Point military academy
have submitted their annual report to the
secretary of war. The report states that
the board found the discipline strict, vet
reasonable and well calculated to teach reg
ularity, system and cheerful obedience to
orders. because they are orders. 1t recon-
mends that increased opportunities and ill
structiOn be given. with a view of obtaining
the highest excellence in the use of small
arms. An appropriation OF $50, 600 is rec
commended for new gymnasium. S., 600
for improving the cadet laundry. $40, 600
for improving the blacksmith and other

for the cavalry detachment nearer the
stables and riding hall, -, 900 for changes
in the library building, and S17, 600 to make
suitable provision for the departments of
chemistry and philosophy. The board also
say that the quarters for the families Of the
enlisted men are very insufficient and new
ones are needed. The board further rec
ommendS that the chief of engineers be
made the inspector of the academy; that
the number OF appointments at large be re-
sUricted to ten per year.
The report included communications
from professors of the academy in regard TO
the time devoted to mathematics. \ ma
jority of the professors say that the time is
diSProportionately great. The board calls
the attention of the secretary OF war to this
subject and recommends that the academy
board be asked to take into consideration
the relative value of the various subjects
now taught at the academy. The board of
visitors consisted OF John Bigelow of New
