BILE Attempt.
Special to the Globe.
ASHLAND, Wis, Jan. THE family
of Albert Pollawa, Hungarian, had a
narrow escape from death by poisoning
this morning. An enemy of Pollawa's,
who has sworn revenge against him,
hatched the diabolical plot. If the fa-
ther had not been possessed OF unusual
intelligence for a man of his nationality
the entire family would have been
killed, for meat which was served up
for the morning meal had been dosed
with strychnine. 1t tasted bitter to
Pollawa, and his wife and they eau
toned the children against eating it,.
They soon began to feel the effects of
the deadly drug and were given anti
dotes in time. A clue has been OBJ
tanned as to the author of the intended
act and the probability is that he will be
brought to justice.

THE sen ATORS
Have a Little Fun With Their
Caucus


The caucus of state senators was de-
void of any excitement-in fact, as
senator remarked, it was veritable
love feast. Senators we're slow in MAX
ing their appearance, filing into the
senate by twos and threes. There was
little speculation as to the candidates
seeking Office, the interest of the sena-
tors being largely pent up upon the
proceedings of the house of representa-
tives. Senator Daniels, of Rochester,
called the caucus to older, remarking
that he was privileged to perform the
same duty two years ago. He took ec-
caSion to congratulate the senators that
there had been no break in their ranks,
politically or physically. Two Of their
members had been called to a higher
seat in the synagogue, showing they
had material to supply any place at the
command of the people.
Senator Compton, of Fergus Falls,
was appointed chairman of the caucus,
and Senator Day, of Fairmont, secre-
tary.
The senators at once proceeded to
nominate officers. There was no oppo-
sition to the first three officials of the
senate, they being elected unanimously
as follows: Secretary, o. L. Cullen ;
assistant secretary, Bert w. Day; en-
The tug of war came with the nomina-
ton of enrolling clerk. w. C. White
man, Big Stone county; Luther Osborn,
Clay county; Harry E. Ives, Polk coun-
ty; and W. Fl. Poland, Swift county,
were nominated for this posi-
ton. Senator Hall, OF Stewart.
said he had another nomination,
F. G. Nellermore, Renville county, but
he would not make the nomination in
the interest of those nominated. They
were all newspaper men, and for the
work they did during the campaign de-
served the appointment. Whiteman
and Poland tied with votes each on the
first ballot, Ives having Z, Osborn 2 and
Nellermore l. Whiteman gathered
strength in the succeeding two ballots,
when Poland withdrew in favor of
Nellermore, but the fourth ballot White
man secured the nonsnation by II
votes, Nellermore Z, Ives and Osborne
each.
For sergeant-at-arms there were three
nominations-F;; FL; Dayton, Ramsey
county; Clark Chambers, Steele county.
and G. J. Hummerson, Dodge county,
Chambers was elected on the second
ballot, receiving IL votes, Dayton IL
and Hummerson 2. Two candidates
were placed in the field for assistant
sergeant-at-arms-A. o. Styve, Free
born county. and w. F. Zwicky, Polk
county. While the vote was being
taken cheers were heard in the corri-
doris, and the senators relieved their
feelings by cries of Name, name." A
voice cheerily responded, ''Graves all
right" which was followed with gen
eral cheer. Meanwhile the tellers got
ing been cast than there crew were reses senatars Har
present. The candidates tied in several
ballots, eventually Zwicky receiving
the nomination by 16 votes to Styve's IA.

PROBABLY FATAL ACCIDENT.
James HALEY Friehtfully Mangied by
Blast.

james HALEY, a man about 50 years
OF age, was the victim of the premature
explosion of blast ut Post Falls, yester-
day morning, receiving injuries which
will probably prove fatal. HALEY was in
charge of the blasting work on the tail
race which is being oxcavated at Post
Falls by Alart Bros. of this city, to con-
duet water to the mill. At the breakfast
table HALEY informed the other work
men that he would be able to finish the
blasting by 10 o'clock. At Z o'clock he
went to work. A hole had been pre-
viously drilled, and HALEY proceeded TO
"spring the hole" term used among
blasters for tringa light charge to loosen
the rocks. He had been to work but a
few minutes when the blast exploded,
the embarkment. He was assisted
out OF the cut by two workmen
who were near by. HIS lace
was so badly bruised and COW
cred with blood to such an extent that
the nature OF the injuries could NOT be
ascertaincd at the time. He was con-
scious for half an hour after the acci-
dent and talked to those around him.
From what could be learned by the 9th
er workmen the fuse was too short, and
after lighting IL Haley turned and ran
up the embankment, but slipped and
fell back and before he had time 10 climb
up second time the explosion occurred.
William Dixon, q tcamster hitched up
his team and brought HALEY TO this
city and placed him in the hospital,
where his wounds were dressed. Tho
injured man presented a sickening spec
taCIe. One of the rocks from the blast
had completely carried away the left
eye and a portion OF the fore head, eX-
posing the brain, mashed in the bridge
OF the nose, and bruised the right eye so
badly that the physician i'll attendance
was unable to determine whether II
had also been totally destroyed. The
chin was laid open, US was also the left
check from the corner of the mouth al
most to the ear. 1t is not probable that
will be horribly disfgured. He WAS
asked shortly after the accident If he
had any relatives in this country and
answered that he had no relatives in this

The Greatest bonanza Ever Uncov-
crcd In California.

Barney Carter, an old prospector, has
recently discovered the richest gold mine
ever brought TO light III California, His
discovery was MADE in the vicinity OF
Death Valley on the Alojave Desert. 1t
has long been known that very rich
mineral deposits were situated in that
section of the country, but heretofore the
prospevtors and Others have had horror
of the desert, ard Il large number of
those who risked their lives hunting for
the precious metals have never returned,
and the bones of many yenturesome
men are now bleaching on the sands as
result Of their inordnate thirst for gold.
Gold llill, the new mine has been
Christcucd by Carter and his colleagues,
was discovered sometime in July. II is
literally Il mine of gold, and Is practical
ly iueXhaustiblc. The base OF the noun.
tain is 5000 above sea level, and rises to
u height Of about 1000 feet, being one
mile aild half in circumfencc, on a
rough estimate. The quartz formation
is capped with granite. on removing
which the ore is exposed in unlimited
quantities. The deposit is similar to
that at Virginia City being what is
known us q "blOw w-out."
As soon rs Carter was satisfied of the
ricn discovery he employed Steve
Arnold and G. A. Winters 10 hold his
claims, and at once returned During
his absence these men deserted
their employer and located claims
for themselves. They also struck il
rich, but being without funds, brought
in about fifty pounds of ore, and inter
viewed X. B. Taylor, of Riverside, to
whom they showed specimens Of the
ore and endcavored to sell thefr claims
to him; but Taylor was posted, and
knowing that they had no right to To-
cate mines while employed by others,
would have nothing to do with them.
Efforts have been made to interest
moneyed men in the find, but the district
is so isolated and difficult OF access that
nobody has undertaken to follow ii up.
The region is an absolute desert and
there Is no water anywhere near it,
Only few miles further on is the
famous Death valley which has been
the cause of so many lives being lost.
Many years ago there was an expedition
to the deadly valley. Most Of the tray
ers died before reaching It. and only
few ever returned to tell the tale Of dis
as teo and devastation.

Experiment Station.

Tho Farmers Bulleton, recently is
sued from the office of the experiment
stations of the department of agricul-
ture, shows that much useful knowcdge
is gained for the farmers benefit BY
these stations. In Connecticut the price
OF commercial fertilizers has been re-
duced so that the saving TO farmers in
the cost of one article Is more than the
cost maintaining the stations in that
state. A farmer III New Jersey admits
that he has derYed information from
the experiments i'll that state which has
been worth more than SgOUo 10 hin, III u
single year. Among the valuable re-
sl.lls noted in North Carolina are an In
crease of IL per cent IN the quality of
commercial fertilizers there sold and the
substitution of more profitable crous In
the place of cotton.
These experiment stations now employ
$40 experts in agricultural science and
priation of 5000 900, TO which the states
add $125,0o0. This is cost of about
$6.25 "a year for every million dollars in

1t is only when the government attempts
