HE WAS UNDER THE BED.
But He Had to Come Out and
Submit to Arrest.

Manager f. L. BiXby, OF the BiJou
theater, and his family had little ex-
perience at their home, No. Is North
Tenth street, shortly after O'Clock last
night, which they will not forget very
soon. While the family were at dinner
in the dining room a messenger boy
with note called Miss Bixby to the
door. When she returned to the din
ing room she did not latch the
front door, and gentlemanly-
looking fellow walked in unseen by any
members of the household and quietly
slipped up stairs. Mr.. BiXby had fin
ished his dinner, and went into the
bath room, which adjoins his bed room
on the second floor. He was accOmpa-
MED by his dog, and noticed the animal
acted rather strangely and kept groWl-
ing at something in the bed room. He
lit the gas just in time to see the form
of a man disappear beneath the bed.
The dog flew at the man, but was called
off, and Mr.. Bixby invited the fellow to
come out in tones that could not posi-
bly, be misunderstood,
"What are you doing in heTe?" in
quired the proprietor OF the house.
Nothing at all, sir, to say in eXpldna-
ton. have made very bad play and

Il should say you did," replied Mr..
Bixby with a smile, "but you are lucky.
If it had been later in the evening |
think l would have killed you first and
made the inquiries later. l guess this
time the courts can settle yOu."
Il am very glad it was not later" re-
piled the wonld-be robber, as he but
toned one of his gloves.

neighbors, and the fellow was taken
into the parIor to await the arrival of
the police, who had been telegraphed
for. He refused to give any account of
himself further than to say that he
wanted money and had no other way of
getting it. Policeman Tom GarviD soon
arrived, and escorted the man to the
central station. He told the officer In
an off-hand way that he had only ar
rived from Duluth about thee hours be-
fore his arrest, but refused to give his
name. He is unknown to the Mime
appoIis police. He IS apparently
about twenty one years of age,
dressed in dark clothes, very gentle
manly in appearance and wears kid
gloves. The only thing about him is
his hair, which is a bright red. At the
station house he said: 1--WE made a
id bad play, and the less [ say about
it the better it will be for me-" He will
be arraigned before the municipal court
this morning.
Early yesterday morning Dunn &
Aliens saloon. at 40 North Sixth street,
was visited by thieves, and $50 in cash,
the receipts of the evening was stolen
from the till. AS there were no marks
to show the doors had been forced it is
believed that the thieves were locked
in the place when it was closed shortly
before midnight. There was consid
able excitement in the neighborhood
when the robbery was made known,
and several amateur detectives armed
with horse pistols hunted for the
thieves. but not even tramp was to be
found in the neighborhood.

A Possible Candidate for the May
orally Charged With Intimida-
ton.
There was complaint filed in the
district court yesterday which, if true,
reflects somewhat severely upon two of
the most prominent Scandinavians in
the city. r. Sunde and A. G. Haugan,
president and cashier respectively of the
Scandal Bank of Minneapolis are ac
cused of setting the screws rather
tightly upon Ole Dahl, contractor and
builder.
Dahl's complaint recites that on the
18th of July, 1889. he owed the Scandal
bank $1,000 on a loan, for which he gave
a. note, and which was secured by a
mortgage on certain property. He al
legeS that he was called upon by A. G.
Haugan, who requested his appearance
at tue bank. Dahl, according to his
statement. called at the Scandal bank
Dec. 10, 1889, and was by Sunde and
Haugan invited into the back room. 1t
is alleged that they then and there de-
manded the payment of the 5000,
threatening to have Dahl arrested
should he fail to do so. The threat to
arrest was made Oh the ground that,
in giving the mortgage to secure his
note, Dahl had made false representa-
tons concerning membranes oil the
property mOrtgaged. Dahl said that he
could not pay the $1,000 that day, where
upon, it is alleged. they said:
"You will then have to go to Jail or
make an assignment to the bank of the
rents of all your property"
This Dahl declined to do; and, it is
claimed that Sunde next said:
"You cannot go out of this bank until
you make that assignment, for if you do
L shall be up town before you are and
shall have you arrested"
Dahl says he was unacquainted with
the law and asked permission to consult
with his friends, but was met with the
reply:
"YOu cannot go out of here until you
make that assignment"
1t is alleged that the assignment to
the bank of all the rents of his property
was then written out, and that Dahl,
being under dureSs and in fear Of ar
rest, signed it. Haugan has, it is said,
visited some of Dahl's tenants and de-
manded the rents. The rents amount
to about 1850 per month.
Dahl asks for an order enjoining the
collection Of the rents and for posses
sion of the written assignment, that he
may destroy it. Judge Rea has ordered
the defendants to appear mt the special
term Of court to-day and show cause
why they should not be enjoined from
collecting the rents, and why they
should not deliver over the assignment
to Dahl.

David Comic & Son were heavy stock

of the company was $4,000 worth of

Comic 4 Son cOnspired with Coffin, as
signee of the petr0le company, to cheat
the other creditors out of a fair share of

Happy Hottentots.

The Hottentots in the Jardin d'Accli-
matation continue to attract the at
tention of Parisians, but the poor crea-
lures have beer shivering in the cold
weather which has prevailed lately.
They have been brought to Paris by q
German, who relates that he got them to
start for Europe almost by force. Herr
Thege, the energetic person in question,
frstnegotiated with Mother Elizabeth, "
the most intelligent member of the
troupe, who is herself on view in the
Bots de Boulogne. The natives were
enticed to the railway carriages, into
which they were unceremoniously
packed. When they arrived at the
wharves at Cape Town they were so
dazed that they allowed themselves to
be carried like children on board the
steamboats,. The Hottentots, however,
have little to complain Of in Paris ex-
cept the bad weather.
The men received as pay $40 per
month and the women S.. On Sunday
they are well '1argessed" by the crowds
of visitors who flock to the garden to
visit them. and Mother Elizabeth, u
who takes care to put herself in evidence
and to show that she IS the most i'm
portant parsonage in the troupe, makes
fifty francs or $35 at least on such occa-
sions. Mother Elizabeth, " however, has
formidable rival in Jacob" the head
man of the Hottentot troupe, who is a
mighty hunter and has slain lion. The
/ chief orders the minor Hottentots about,
and every evening designates the cook
for the following day, the functionarY of
the kitchen having to rise at six o'clock
in order to chop wood, light fires and
make soup, which is composed of coffee
and salt When they are at home in
Africa, Herr Thege's troupe are not par
ticular as to what they eat. They re-
main in a state of utter laziness until
they are hungry; then they go on the
trail and eat anything they can get, from
buffalo or cat to a toad. Porcupines
form their daintiest dish, and lizards,

Undressing the Goose

The goose is not injured by scalding
/ (as the common fowl. or the turkey, but
is improved both for the market and the
table. Moreover, so far as my observa-
I ton extends, the senseless habit of dry
picking and the prejudice in favor of
Give feathers have died out together.
We formerly kept considerable fiOcks of
geese, and every fall bought, to fatten
aud slaughter, all that we're raised for
miles around US, and we always held the
scalded feathers for higher price than
those picked from the live geese during
the growing season, and got it, too, be-
cause there was among them a larger pro-
portion Of down. We dipped the dead
goose into scalding water, moved it
back aud forth till the water had pene-
trated to the skin. and then wrapped it
up in a thick cloth till the scalding was
completed SO that the feathers could be
easiy removed, the time varying from

1t is a good plan. though net always
into cold water TIL the heat of the sur
face OF the body is removed. A more
common method is to proceed at once to
complete the dressing, and cool the car
cass in the air. The goose is a profitable
fowl; indeed, think, the most profitable
under favoring circumstances. But the
drawback en- goose raising in our ex-
perience, which extends over many
years, IS that it roots ont and kills many
of the best grasses in our permanent pas
lures and encourages the growth of rank
weeds, such as the goldenrod and daisy.

New japan.

The young Mikado, Mutsuhlto, the
123d Emperor of the nameless dynasty,
was the first of the line to take the oath
as ruler.
On the 18th of April, 1868. he made
oath before gods and men that Ia de-
Lucrative assembly should De formed;
all measures should be decided by public
opinion, and that intellect and learning
should be sought for throughout the
world, in order to establish the founda-
tons of the empire.
This oath was reatfrmed October u
1881, and this year 1890 IS fixed as the
time for limiting the imperial preroga-
gative, forming two houses Of parlia-
ment, and Transforming the government
into g constitutional monarchy.
The Emperor's capital was changed
from kioto TO Yeddo, which was ge-
named and called Toxic.
Feudalism, or the holding of fiefs by
the damio, came to an end in 1871, by
imperial edict, and the whole of great
Japan was again directly under the Mi
kado's rule.
The titles of kuze and daimo we're also
abolished, both being renamed simply
(K0o-as-O Eoo), or noble families. The
distinctions between the lower orders of
people were scattered to the winds, and
even the despised outcasts were made
citizens, protected by law.
The degrees in rank among the Japan
csc are now as follows
First. The Emperor and the royal
families.
Second. The Kuasoku, the noble
families.
Third. The Shizoku, the gentry.
Fourth. The Heimin, the citizens in
