Elevated train guards not infrequent
ly find things in their cars, but finds oil
money are rare. Some them have
been kicking themselves for months
over an incident that occurred one
morning as number of them were en-
route to One Hundred and Fifty-fifth
street to 60 on duty. As usual, they
were seated in group in the last car,
indulging in chat. One Of their mum
Der spied brown paper parcel on an
adjoining seat. It was greasy, and
looked about as ordinary as such g
parcel can look.
"Hellol" cried this penetrating
guard, 'here's some Eyetalians
lunch, and with that he hurled the
brown paper mass at the head Of the
man opposite him. In like manner
the parcel was passed back again, and
the fun was kept up until the end Of
the trip, when It was suggested that il
be presented to the starter with the
mems compliments. The starter took
the matter seriously, opened the par
Gel carefully, and then thanked the
men gravely for giving it to him.
There was 81, 500 in the greasy brown
paper, but the starter said he felt
obliged to hold on to it until the
owner called for it, which he did the
next day. Train men now invariably
inspect brown paper parcels with par
ticularity.-New York Sun.

prietors of the News have determined
to issue in few days the first number

to be just such q paper as will meet
the vans Of the country farmers
home.
By an arrangement with Capt. J. f.
ElgiD, the STocK AND FARM NEWS
has secured the subscription list Of the
Weekly Examiner, and hence will start
with large bone fde subscription list.
This fact is sufficient to establish its
value as an advertising medium.

aminer, whose subscriptions had not
expired at the suspension Of that
paper will receive the STocK AND
FARM News for the time they had
paid.
The subscription will be set at

A CASE OF INSANITY.

A rather singular case of insanity
was developed in this place on Mon
day last. On Saturday man named
s. A. Kimball, who has been living in
Pipestone little less than a year,
came to the Western House and stayed
until Monday. He was very quiet in
his manners, not speaking to any one
unless spoken to, except once or twice
inq"iring about chances for his getting
work. While here he wrote a letter to
his wife in Pipestone, enclosing ten
dollars to her, but not giving the name
of the place where he was His wife,
discerning the name of the place from
the post mark on the letter, came here
at once, as she had not heard from
him after he left home some weeks be-
fore.
At the sight of his wife he seemed to
brcome wildly insane, and started to
run. IL had to be pursued and
brought back to the hotel, where he
stayed until Monday, when lie was
TAKEN BACK To PIpeStOne.
1t seems that kimball had bought
the stock of ! butcher shop from
man for whom he had worked. The
trade was completed on Saturday. and
on Monday he WAS to nrgin busires
On that day, instead Of opening his
shop he borrowed fifty dollars Of
Ir,, - e.. 70 81,
him. Those of his friends who thought
anything about his absence, supposed
he had gone to buy cattle. 1t seems
that lie stopped at places in Iowa and
Minnesota before coming here. Mrs.
kimball, in her distress, appealed to
members of the Grand Army and of
the Masonic fraternity, to both of
which Mr.. K. belonged. Mr.. People
was employed to take the afflicted man
back to his home. 1t was not al easy
task, as lie made violent resistance to
being put on the train here, and also to
being transferred 1T Heron Lake. At
both places it required four "r five
men to carry him into t.e cars.
Mr.. K, is about As years old, and of
very good family connections, and is a
man of good habits and reputation.
His friends in Pipestone are looking
after his welfare, and when Mr.. People
left Pipestone, it was hoped that he
would soon recover his health and rea.
son.
