SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT.
| Bill an act to provide for the refundipg of
the public debt came up by special assign
ment.
| Mr. Heath of Kennebec said the bill had
| been speedily assigned on his motion, be
cause be believed it AZ important as any that
would come before the Legislature. He ap-
| preached the consideration of it vith a good
deal of diff lence, because he laid no claims
TO any kno sledge of financial operations
and certainly did not pretend 10 be inan
cier. He approached the criticisms. or suy
gestions of doubts that he had about the
bill. in a spirit Of ignorance rather than of
opposition to it Two years ago there was
an attempt to refund the State debt which
proved failure. The bill was put through
under a suspension of the rules with ,ut being
printed so that none voted intelligently or
knew but little about it. Substantially the same
measure comes before this Legislature, and
no detailed report or explanation
comes with il as to why this
plan is for the best interests Of the
State. I, seemed to him after the bill was
! reported, that if one scheme had failed after
trial of two years, the legislature should
!. approach the re-enactment of substantially
the same bill with much more caution thar
!, if it had been an original proposition.
The amount of the State debt to be re-
funded, in round numbers is % 800, 900
About half of it falls due June LIST and
a 'out half Oct lst The proposition ,<e

on June first -houii be met by temporary

the Perpctrator I.ynched.

The Pioneer Press special from
Seattle, w. r., says: Gilman, little
coal mining village forty-fvo miles
distant, was the scene Of n dastardly
dynamite explosion perpetrated by an
Italian fiend with tho assumed name Of
Albert Schaefler Three persons, John
and Michael Schurvik, brothers, and u
nine-year-old daughter of Geo. Bodalya,
were blown to pieces. Bodalya him
self had his left leg torn from his body.
The explosion created terrible COM
motion in the village and brought every
inhabitant to the spot. An armed posse
Of miners went to the Italians cabin
where he and mate lived. Tho angry
miners seized both men and took them
before u Justice. Sheriff Cochano ar
rived from the scene Of the late New
Castle riot, and when the Justices
Court adjourned for dinner took tho
men in charge. The Sheriff won't TO

Schaoffer and lynched him, hanging
him to tree near by. All efforts TO
make him confess failed. He died in

FATAL FAMILY AFFAIR.
A Doctor Killed by His Father-in-
Law at Stevens Point, Wis.

DR.. o. Meyers, aged 81 years, and q
well known physician of Stevens Point.
Wis, was shot and instantly killed on
the street by Phillip Griffith, his
father-in-law. On December 10Th, the
doctors wife died from the effects OF n
pistol shot, which, he claimed, was
fired by her hand. Circumstantial evil
dence warranted the roroner's jury in
not bringing in a verdict of suicide, but
the deed was not charged to any per-
son. The parents and brother'of Mrs.
Meyers stoutly maintain she did not
commit suicide, and the father has been
endeavoring since TO secure u warrant
for the doctors arrest, but without
avail. This last tragedyis the outcome
OF the affair. VIM. Griffith, brother-in-
law, was also arrested, he having
quarreled and fought with the Doctor
a few minutes before the killing.

TIE CROPS OF THE NATION.

The December report of the depart
ment of agriculture, makes the product
of corn, 1897 100 900 bushels, grown on
10 ,673 ,763 acres, valued on the farm at
S677 ,56l $50, or 81 / cents per bushel
against A 4 cents for the crop of 1887, a
decrease OF % per cent. the product of
1887, being q per cent. less in volume
than that of 1888. The average yield of
the commercial belt, or seven corn
surplus states, is SO 9 bushels per acre.
The Atlantic coast, south of the Potomac,
averages II. 2 bushels Of comparatively
poor quality.
The wheat aggregate is Ala 1868 900
bushels grown Oh 81 1886 ,13S acres, and
valued at 1894 PAS 900. The average
yield is therefore Il / bushels per acre;
winter wheat, II 6 bushels, and spring
wheat 10 g bushels per acre. The aver
age farm value is 80 g cents per bushel,
against IS / cents for the previous crop,
a difference due more to foreign than
domestic scarcity.
The aggregate for oats is 707 1877 900
bushels, grown on %, 998 ,2S2 acres, and
valued at Sl95, 424 ,24O This is 81 $
cents per bushel, against 80 cents for the
crop of 1887.
a comparison of aggregate values shows
that the present corn crop is worth only
S3I 900 900 more than the previous one,
wheat S74 1000 900 more and oats s. 900,
900 less.
