THE RAZOR DISCOVERED.
The Razor With which the Cutting
Was Done Yesterday Found.

The Razor with which the Cutting
Was Done Yesterday Found.
There were a few new Developments in
the Yesterday morning tragedy yesterday.
The razor with which the cutting was done
was discovered under circumstances that
seem to fix the guilt on Mcfarland beyond
the shadow of a doubt When the men
left the house after the cutting, Officer
Cornick caught Wade and man by the
name of Wilson stopped Mcfarland on the
streets. Yesterday Wilson told Chief
Clark that when he caught
Mcfarland he saw him throw something
into the gutter, but thought nothing of it
at the time. Yesterday, in company with
an officer, he visited the spot and they
found the razor stained with blood.
The probable murderer is tall, slim,
rather delicate looking fellow, having the
appearance of a mulatto. He has been
known in the city by the police for the past
two wears, and has worked on the Northern
Pacific sleeping cars until lately, when he
has been sporting. He went to Winnipeg
several weeks ago, returning short time
since. He is said to have been Della Smith S
.'solid man. She was an occupant OF the
house. and will be remembered as the
woman who was shot last winter by Fort
Smelling soldier while i'll q hack.
THE REMAINS
of the murdered man were taken to Leigh's
undertaking rooms, where c0rOnerS III
quest will be held on them to-day 1t was
learned yesterday thar Wades relatives live
in Oshkosh. Wis, and Coroner Quinn tele-
graphed to them His mother and sister
will probably be here to-day or to-
morrow. 1t was learned yester-
day that Il fireman of locomotive
No. 10 on the Northern Pacific road was
acquainted with Wade and had stated that
Wade left work on the st. Paul u Duluth
road few days ago, and last Saturday
started on spree. He urged the fireman
to 90 with him. but he refused. Wade was
then under the influence of liquor, and
while talking with the fireman took out of
his pocket the razor that was found on his
person at the police station and said that
he would cut somebody before
The day was over. He said Wade was a
very quiet and peaceable man when sober,
but liquor rendered him crazy, and in that
condition he was dangerous. Mcfarland
had row in saloon on Minnesota street
Saturday night before going to the bagnio,
in which he dubbed Tom Jefferson over
the head with heavy cane. He was re-
moved from the police station yesterday
morning to the county Jail. He appeared
to be nervous, but claimed that he was in
nocent of the cutting.

Sons of Toll.
A meeting of workingmen was held in
Arion hall yesterday afternoon, which was
largely attended. Otto Haese was the
principal speaker, and his eloquence was
repeatedly applauded. During his dis
course he argued against striking, unless the
laborerS were united and the standing out
was general. He said that workingmen
were not united enough and until they did
unite they would continue to be oppressed
by capital. He leveled a TRADE at the land

in plain and comprehensive argument that

ingman, and they should not allow them
selves to be taken advantage of. He
showed by statistics thai there were 500, 900
laboring men at the present time out of en-
ployment in the United States and also
that when the capitalist paid his employees
from $500 to $3.50 year he made $500
profit on their labor, per capita. AT the
conclusion of his remarks the meeting was
addressed by others in different languages.

EDUCATING THE COLTS.

Some Good Suggestions for NIinne-
sofa Breeders.
The winter is the time during which the
farmer who is any way interested in the
breeding Of horses has the leisure necessary
to thorough breaking Of the young stock
on the place, and as there is no period in
it's life so important to the horse as that
during which the first lessons in the matter
of driving in harness are received there is
no subject that can be of more interest to
owners of colts. That the last decade has
witnessed great improvement in the educa-
ton of young trotters and draft horses there
can be no doubt. The fact that the early
development of speed in colt caused its
value to be greatly enhanced, especially if
the animal was bred in lines that had pro-
duced
WINNERS ON THE TURF.
led breeders and trainers to give the subject
of early development their earnest attention,
and the result of their efforts is that we
now have every year. and in almost every
state in the Union, races for yearling trot-
tiers. as well as for those of greater age, and
California has produced FLY that several
months before she was two years of age
made record of 1861. A two-year-old
has trotted in 2:21. and two thfee-year-olds
have placed 2:1s1s to their credit, one of
them doing so in the third heat OF fast
and well-contested race against other
horses. Of course the first requisite for
such phenomenal displays of speed is that
the colt shall have the trotting instinct
transmitted by sires and dams that were
themselves trotters, but all the speed in the
world could not be utilized were the colt
possessing it not thoroughly Droken--as
well broken in fact as yeariing as tretters
of the olden days were at four and five years
of age.
TO BREAK AND EDUCATE
colts in this manner so that advantage may
be taken of their speed before the expense
of keeping them several years has absorbed

Lebanon, Pa, October 2l.-Duriug
The singing of the "Chimes of Norman
dy" in Fishers Opera House last night
by the Hammersly Opera Company, who
are here for week, one of the perform
ers named Mares sang a topical song,
during which he made reference to a
number OF local affairs and introduced
the name of Colonel Frank Seltzer, a
leading attorney. When his name was
mentioned, the gallery gods and others
yelled, and Colonel Seltz3r, feeling deep.
ly mortified, withdrew. After the per-
formance Colonel Seltzer called at the
City Hotel and,demanded an'apoloay from
| the manager. The offending actor was
summoned by Manager Hammersly, who
said that the use of the lawyer g
name was against positive orders. Mares
| appeared, and Colonel Seltzer began to
belabor him with MS cane, and inflicted
several wounds on his head. Friends
stopped the assault, and the two men
were separated. Colonel SeltZer said he
would not have cared so much II his
name had been used in some mild way,
but it was reprehensible custom at
best, especially when done without au.
thority. The actor yesterday appeared
before Squire Kreider, and made com.
plant against the lawyer who fur
nished bail. 1t is not believed the case
will be prosecuted
