BISMARCK. Oak. Jan. 5-John c
Badesu, Frenchman, arrived in thu
city yesterday and created q sensation
by announcing that he had authority
from the half-breeds and Indian follow
ers of Louis Riel to purchase ammunition
and guns for outbreaks 10 the spring
He said he was chief of the tribes of thu
northwest territory. He went ives
stating that he would go to the Pacific
poets to incIte the natives TO join him
He was pronounced q lunstic, but his
perfectly rational conversation on al
other subjects led to the opinion that ht
was SIMPLY q crank. However, serious
rumors which have bE en- received from
the northwest territory leaves q Sigh
belief that he Is a representative of the
rebellious half.bFeede.

The Funeral Services.

KANSAS CITY, Jan. 10 The remains
o. Rev. Henry d. Jardine were inferred
in Union cemetery. The funeral cere
monies took place at st. Mary's church
at 10 O'Clock with marked ceremonies
A requiem mass was rendered by Rev
E. A. LarAbee of the Church of Ascen-
sion, Chicago, and the funeral Grafton
was delivered by Rev. Father Belts OF
Trinity church, st. Louis.
Father Belts created q suppressed SEN
sation by the arraignment of the prose-
cution which had followed the dead
priest, placing HIM in the light OF q mar
tyred man. Demonstrations of applause
were made by some of the dead mans
friends, but the sounds were quickly
hushed. On account of the limited Ca
pacitY of the church tickets OF Admis.
sion were used and the church was flied
to OVERLOOKING.
The sensation at the address of the
Rev. Mr.. Belts to day is the talk of the
city tonight He spoke in glowing
terms 10 defense Of the deceased, and in
bitter lnvective against his persecutors
The scene grew highly dramatic as the
tall priest stood beside the bier in the
dimlY lighted church, ana facing the
audience, declared that his dead friend
had been assassinated and they. the peo-
pie Of Kansas City. had slam him. He
denounced the action of the ecclesias
tical court as outrageous, anc character
Ized the bishops conduct as weak and
temporizin0. Further evidence, the
speaker declared, would demonstrate the
innocence and purity of Father JardiDe

The Praeua ConsnIshIp

CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-The Daily Neaos
has Washington special which says:
Charles Jonas of Madison, Wisconsin,
was nominated by the president to the
consulship at Prague, April Is. 1885.
Jonas is native of Austro. Hungary,
but has lived in this country a number
OF years. The Austrian government
refused his exequatur without furthur
explanation.
Some weeks ago the secretary of state
telegraphed Consul General Jussen at
Vienna to go to Prague and learn if pos
sible the real cause of Austris's
refusal to receive Jonas. Jussen's re-
port was received at the state depart
ment to-day He says the feeling against
Jonas was adroltly worked by the latter's
predecessor, G. A. Phelps of Massachu-
sets, who believed that the Withholding
of JOnas' eXequatur would result
IN the retention of himself
and his vice consul. Inquiry
developed the fact that Phelps durin g
his residence in Prague identified him.
seit with the German and anti Czechi8n
element, and it was this element which
set on foot the charges against Jonas.
After the Germans had entered the
field as the champion of Phelps aud ac-
cusers of Jonas, the Czechos went to the
rescue of their countrymen and insisted
that it would be an insult to Bohemisns
If Jonas should be disgraced by the re-
fusal of Austria to accept bin. The
fight ragged hot and furious, but the ques-
ton was finally submitted TO the members
of the Bohemian legislature and Count
Taste, prime minister, was threatened
IN turn by each party in case he disre
garded their wishes. There appears to
be no doubt in Jussen's mind that Count
Tasfe in refusing jonas exequater, was
influenced by what he regarded as the
political exIgencies of his admInistra-
tion, and gave no heed whatever to the
courtesy due this government nor TO the
real merits of the case.

By the statutes "anY number of persons

terry association. At q meeting lately
held in Kesson, Minnesota, to form such
an association. q woman's name was
proposed as one OF the trustees. A doubI
was raised whether women were legal
ly persons and IL was decided 70 exclude
women uutil the next annual meeting
by which time legal advice could be OBJ
tanned. Mrs. Il. M. White, one of thu
excluded, wrote 10 the attorney genera
at ST. Paul. asking his legal opinion a
to whether she was q person. THE Al
torneY general promptly replied that shs

no ground to stand upon, unless thos'
who hold that women are not persons
should contend that ''they were angel
and hence would not require burial"

A Big Bill.

NEW YORK. Jan 14-Undertsker,
Ire acher and would-be congress man.
Stephen Merritt, who had charge of the
arrsngemcn ts for General Grants fune-
raj last fall, said last night that he hoped
to receive check IN part payment OF
his bill before the close of banking
hours to day. The account amounts to
$14, 1853 IS, and when two weeks alter
the funeral IL was sent into General
Hancock's division of the war depart
ment. the undertaken was happy in the
expectation of q remittance within a
month. But that period passed and an
other month, and third and the rev.
erend brakeman began 10 feel q trifie
uneasy. Inquiry developed the fact
that the account had been credited and
forwarded to Washington, and it began
TO look as though 1t might have been
lost in one of the numerous pigeon
holes of the quertermaster's department.
So few days ago Mr.. Merritt, whose
patience was by this time well nigh ex-
hausted' sent his son TO the national cap.
ital to look into the matter. By some
| coincidence on the very day the young
| man arrived the bill was transmitted 70
the treasury department from the office
of QuaItermaster General Holbird, and
he was advised that an order for $12, 00C
would be sent to his father through
General Hancock before this evening
This amount covers several items in the
bill, and as it exhausts the appropria-
ton made for the funeral special ap'
| preparation will be necessary to NEE
| the balance.

In the meantime two children in the

ported down with the disease, and Bar

There is Q popular belief that news
paper men are not posted on farm mat
tiers. But this ls snare and delusion.
II you doubt it, read this from the Atchi.
son Globe:
It Is frequent saying that In the
winter farmer has nothing TO do but
enjoy himself; that when the billiards
send In their cards be can draw his
chair up to the stove, put his feet in the
oven, and spend the day reading the
Globe and Church Herald, and other
moral works. According 70 tradition,
this occupation is only disturbed when
he adIourns TO the table, and bauquets on
mInce pie and divers meats. THIS is all
u mistake. A close observer will see
the industrious farmer crawl out Of bed
four hours before daylight, soften his
frozen boots with hammer, and COM
mence his days work with lantern IN
one hand and q bucket of frozen slop in
the other. He has TO feed from one 70 q
thousand hogs, which shove their noses
in his face, and tip the contents of his
bucket on him, where 1t freezes until he
looks like q skating rink. When he has
escaped from the hog pen, he hunts mp
ak or seven buckets, and crAWls through
a wire fence TO milk twenly-seven cows.
These ANIMALS walt until he has the
bucket nearly filled, when they kick IL
over, aiming so that the contents will
kalsomine such parts OF his clothing as
the hogs spared. Now and then they vary
the monotony by kicking him instead of
the bucket, which makes him feel tired
and homesick- When the cows have
been MIXED, he goes to feed the horses
and finds the sorTel mare doubled up in
the msnger with the collie. He then has
to mix mp lot of aconite and water.
which he attempts to pour down the
ANIMALS mouth, when IL hits him on the
teeth with its front foot and makes him
wish ne had never been born. He works
around all morning with the old mare
and then proceeds TO curry the
dun mules, which try to see which can
kick him the hardest, and by the time
he Is through he feels as though he had
passed through q corn-sheller. When
he has fed the hens, and watered the
cattle, and hunted three hours for {
twenty cent pig. and chopped half q
cord of elm for the house, and carried
forty buckets of water TO the horses
and shelled three bushels of corn BY
hand, and shoveled q road through ter
feet OF snow, and MIXED the COWS, anC
curried the mules, and doctored the ole
mare again In the evening, he goes h
bed, and gets up again in the morning
four hours before daylight and com
mences the whole thing over again.
