What a Boy Did.

A few days ago horse attached to an
express wagon went racing past the
Grand Pacific. Tho animal had evil
IDENTIFY been feeding and became fright
ened, for he had no bit in his mouth and
his bride hung on his neck. AS the run
away rushed furiously across Clark
street and west on Jackson a young lad
jumped forward, caught the tailboard Of
the wagon and climbed in. He had no
sooner got there than the vehicle struck
q cab and careened sufficiently to throw
the boy out. He picked himself up
quickly and climbed back once more into
the wagon. While the horse was still
running at full speed the boy ventured
out on to the shafts, reached the horses
head and managed to stop the animal
just before Fifth avenue was reached.
Two policemen stood on the corner of
Jackson and Clark and saw the horse
rush by, but made only slight efforts to
check him. For all this one of the bold
bluecoats said to the other: "That was a
brave attempt you made to stop that
horse, Jim; your life was in danger
every minute" "That's true, Dan, that's
true; and never would have had the
courage to do what did had not seel
the bravery you showed first 1t was
your example that gave me the grit. !"
And the guardians of the public put
their clubs besides their noses and smiled
knowingly at each other.-Chicago Her.

Buried Alive.

An instance of buried alive is reported
from Syracuse. For one such case which,
through extraordinary circumstances,
comes to light, it is only reasonable to
assume that there are many known only
to the all seeing eye and hidden from all
human ken in the depths of an unvio-
lated grave. Rare as are these evidences
of a second death, a thousand times more
terrible than the first, they are sufficient
to engender the earnest hope that some
means shall be reached whereby burial
before death shall be impossible. Either
some enactment whereby it would be-
come penal ofense to inter body that
did not betray certain unmistakable evi-
dence of absolute death, or some applica-
ton of electrical appliance to the coffin
and its contents.
There are no mechanical difficulties in
the way to prevent electrical communi-
cation between every recently buried
body and the Office or residence of the
cemetery official or watchman. Nor is
it impossible to construct an electrical
appliance of such delicacy that the
slightest movement in the coffin would
sound an alarm that would lead to avert
ing the worst fate which can possibly
befall man born Of women, or woman or
children beloved of man. Electricity has
long been made to summon men to the
distant room of great hotel when fire
is in its first stages. Surely it is possible
for the same subtle servitor to tell Of the
frantic movements of the wretched NOR
tai entombed ere the vital spark Of life
has departed?-Pittsbure Bulletin.

They Knocfed Him In,

The Huronite in speaking of the ap-
pointment of o. w. Bair to the re-
ceivership in the land office at that
place, after mentioning the strong en-
dorsement he had, says:
While it was well known that a
strong home endorsement Of Mr. Bair
including very nearly all the business,
official, and professional men of Beadle
connty-supp!emented by an over
Whelming outside endorsement, had
been filed, and that the appointment
had been thoroughly promised, there
seemed to be general consent that there
would be no hurry in making the
change. Mr.. Miller the incumbent, is
personally very popular, and neither
the department nor the warmest
friends of the appointee seemed dis
posed to disturb him. 1t seems tiiat
within few days there developed a
rugged scheme to knock MIR. Bair out
entirely, which has resulted in knock
ing him in early. 1t is not dreamed
that Mr.. Miller had anything to do
with this, as it is well known that he
designed rendering his resignation
within short time. However, there
would seem no reason for complaint on
any hand. This is a republican adj
ministration. Mr.. Miller is straight
democrat, with philosophy enough to
expect the fortunes of war. Mr.. BAR
is stalwart young republican, of first
class character and qualifications, and
will make most excellent officer. The
young men of the Hackett, Wbeelock,
Bair, Mathews, Aiken stripe seem to
be getting to the front, and we mean
no concealment of our satisfaction

The st. Paul Globe figures out a

minister TO Denmark, ex-
speaker Mathews as comptroller,
Frank Palmer in the office

looks as if the Globe would have great
difficulty in making out a bill of speci-
8fieations. The enterprise which the
democratic press displays in creating
dissensions in republican circles is on
par with the attempt Of the anti

gentleman's health. 70 illustrate

Commenting on recent alleged let
ter to President Harrison from Rich
ard NegleY, an old time resident of
Montana, informing his excellency
that the great trouble with the repub-
lican party of Montana at the last elec-
tion was too much Russell Harrison,
the Minneapolis Journal says:
This is rather an embarrassing
charge to lay against so enterprising
a young man, andit is possible That it
is too severe an Indictment. But at
the same time it is no secret that the
"heir apparent" has been taking good
deal of land in the field Of Montana
politics since the inauguration, and ii
some of the old stagers should feel
like kicking it would not be at sll
strange. There is nothing that makes
an old politician more unhappy than
to see a young man beat him at his
own game. We have had abundant
illustration of that in recent times
here in Minnesota. 1t is always crime
for a young politician to do anything
more than to work hard and wait for
tie old fellows to die Off.
There is statement of fact in that
last sentence which fits other commu-
mites than Montana and Minnesota.
The truth of the matter is that the
most satisfactory results can be at
tained all around by mutual dispo-
sition to be fair. The young men have
no more right to seek to control the
entire situation than have the old
tiners. but each element is entitled to
full consideration by the other, SO
long as this line of demarcation is
kept up. The kid who is behind the
wagon pushing with all his might to
help it through the mud is entitled to
just as much credit for what he does
as the old man on the front seat who
is licking the mules and swearing
blue streak; even though the former
does not attract half so much atten-
tion.

Always Safe and Sure.

1t is safe to take Brandreth's Pills at
any time, but to get the best results
they should be taken on an empty
stomach before going to bed. For con-
stipation or dyspepsia one or two
taken every night will, in short time,
perform an absolute cure. 1t is we'll
to take a purgatiye at least once or
twice a month as preventative of
disease. Brandreth's Pills are entirely
vegetable, and the safest and most
effective purgative eyer introduced to
the public. They have been used in
this country over fifty years.

Can't Hurt the Corn Crop.

Yankton Press: The sergeant in
charge of the weather station at HUI
ron and the weather bureau OF South
Dakota officially reports that South
Dakota's corn crop is retarded 10y cold
weather. AS matter of fact the corn
crop is two weeks ahead of time and is
growing with unusual 1igor. Bat the
sergeant st Huron manufactures the
official testimony and the corn belt
must take the consequences. He will
not be able to injure the crop. but will
be able to foist his false conclusions
upon the public.

DR.. j. f. Cravens, who was the very
efficient superintendent of the Yank
ton Hospital for the Insane before the
advent of the odorous Church outfit,
and who was thought by many to have
been entitled to reappointment by the
new board, will probably be appointed
to the superintendency of the Cook
county Insane Hospital. This is the
institution which is just no% the cause
of an Investigation that is developing
a most frightful state of affairs, and
which seems to be in woful need of
just such supervision as DR.. Crayens
is in every way fitted to give it.

The Argus-Leader returns to the

The Argus-Leader returns to the
charge as follows:
The Mitchell REPUBLICAN is lust as
Drash, and just as ill-iMforined as ever
commenting on paragraph Ill the
Argus-Leader on superintendent of
Census Porter the REPUBLICAN says:
Bless your narrow little noddle, you
you are away behind the times The
rabld Tree trade sheet which started
tnat senseless yawp about Robert p.
Porter stopped it out of every shame
weeks ago.
The paper he refers to is the New
York Post probably for that was one
OF the first to demand a reconsidera.
tion of Porter's nomination. The fol-
lowing from very recent issue Of the
Post looks as Brother Wheelock had
spoken very inadvisedly.
The ALL, then quotes the original
; charge of the free-trade, mugwump
Post as it it had been but recently ut
tered, However, it matters little as to
the justice of the charge even if such
papers as the Post and such feeble imi-
tators thereof as our esteemed demo-
cratic contemporary repeat it every
day. No sensible, reasonable man be-
lieves it, and such stalwart democratic
papers as the New York Sun were
among the first to resent its narrow
injustice. supt. Porter's predecessor
was an earnest apostle of free-trade
and yet the most radical protectionst
i'll the country could find no fault with
his census figures. Indeed, from their
very nature they furnished some of
best protection arguments that were
used in the last campaign.
The ALL, after retorting as above
quoted, fires the following parting
shot:
Brother Wheelock had best confine
himself to drawing pay from the Har-
rlson administration and allow others
to defend it,
Our democratic brothers past expe-
rience as a defender of the powers that
be-for consideration-entit his
advice on this subject to no little
weight. If he had confined himself to
drawing territorial warrants for job
work and had left the work of defend
ing the late Church administration to
others, his self-respect would have
been enhanced as well as his eXchequer
Whether this rule will hold good in
all cases depends very largely on the
character of tie administration one
may be interested in.

! Florida's Health Officer Tenders
His Resignation.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Aug. 19.-Dr.
Joseph V. Porter, assistant surgeon in
the United States army and state health
officer of Florida, returned to Jackson
vile from South Florida to-day. He
found an order of the war department
awaiting him. directing him to proceed

he has been ill-used In the matter, and
makes the following statement:

It was only a question OF time be,

army, and, although had never been called

A HEAVY LAW SUIT.
Property Worth 100000 In Min.
niger Addition in Dispute.

Attorneys Frank Ford and j. W.
Pinch recently filed in the United
States circuit court forty-one suits in
ejectment brought by Julian D. Harmon
ct al. to recover possession of forty lots
in Nininger's addition to st. Paul. The
property brought into controversy by
these suits is all improved, and is de-
scrIbed as follows:
Lots l, 6, 10 to %, 26, and 81. of block
z, and lots 4 to Z, 8 to Is, II to %, and
Is to 20, of block 8, Nininger's addition
to St. Paul.
The plaintiffs claim title through one
j, Rebecca Harmon. deceased, their
mother, who was the sole legatee and
advisee of the estate of her brother, one
George K. Swift, deceased. Swift died
leaving his last will and testament,
wherein ne made one Frederick Kins-
man, his uncle, his executor and trustee.
Kinsman, pretending to act under au-
thority in the will of Swift, sold these
lots to Robert A. Smith in June, 1878.
The controversy is over the authority
of Kinsman to make this sale. Smith
has since conveyed to the present hold
ers. A test case was made on lot "a,
block s, and in suit Of the circuit
court entitled Harmon ct al. against
Smith ct al, decided on May 9Th last.
In very able opinion Judge Nelson
found the title to be in the plaintiffs,
and ordered judgment accordingly. The
case is reported in Volume IS of the
Federal Reporter, page 4S2. Judge
Nelson held that the power of the exec
utor and the trustee to make sales of
real estate terminated on the death of
J. Rebecca Harmon, the cestui que
trust.
The property involved in the forty
one suits just filed is. with the improve
ments, valued at nearly 100000.

OLD GUNS UNEARTHED.
Cannon Used in the War Dug Up
in New Mexico.

ALBUQUERQUE. N. NJ, Aug. 49,
Last Friday Capt. Jack Crawford and
Maj. T. T. Teel arrived in this city for
the purpose of having Maj. Teel locate
the place where he had buried some
cannon in April, 1852. At that time
Albuquerque was in the possession of
the rebels, and Techs battery was part
of Gen. Sibley's command. To prevent
the cannon from falling into the hands
of the Union forces, Maj. Teel and
some of his officers buried the
cannon at dead of night. The common
soldiers knew nothing of it. The other
officers have since died, OF were killed,
and Maj. Teel alone knew the spot
where the cannon were Inferred. He
pointed out the spot and went on his
way 10 Ell Paso. To-day the digging
was commenced, and but few feet
from where he indicated the cannon
were found. Eight were unearthed,
and it is supposed others will be found.
They were some six feet deep, and
when taken out, after tw enty-seven
years. burial, we're as bright as on the
day when they were buried. They
quickly turned black on exposure. They
are underground howitzers, three
stamped United States, showing that
they had been captured from Uncle
Sam and bear the mark of the manu-
facturers, G. A. q Co., Boston. 1t is
supposed they were part of the McCrea
battery captured at Fort Craig.
