in the Brandon house for the last six

Electric sugar refining frauds, arrived at
New York from Detroit. The five prisoners
we're brought to the district attorneys

all over Southern Minnesota, hired a rig
Feb. 5 from Ellis livery stable in Mankato
day. Not word was heard from him and

Frank Randall the murderer of August
Seigler, was sentenced to state prison at
stillw alter for life by Judge searle, at Little
Falls, MINI. He took his sentence calmly,
and upon being remanded to his cell, broke
out in loud and boisterous singing, evidently
pleased that his sentance was not death,
John Sumner, a cousin of Randall, who was
held as a witness, was granted $50 by order
of the court, and took the afternoon train
forNebraska City, Neb., where he has relatives.
A desperate attempt to break Jail by prs-
oners was made at Port Townsend, VT.
The prisoners were just finishing supper
when Richard Calcium of San Juan county,
a burglar, pinioned Jailer Furlong's arms to
his side, when another began choking him
to the floor. Furlong secured his pistol and
fred without effect, causing them to release
til cir hold. A second shot struck Calcium
in the right arm, when he and the rest of the
prisoners fed down stairs. There were five
implicated in the break, all charged with
burglary and grand larceny. This is the
second attempt in four days.
e, 3. Shredder, a train baggageman on
The Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul road, has
been arrested at Chicago, on charges of lar.
ceny and forgery, Heis charged with hav-
ing stolen the passenger tickets after they
had been punched by the conductors and
placed in envelopes, then punching the con.
ductor's punch mark out with station
baggage punch. This made the tickets as
good as new for travellers who had no trunks
to check. These tickets he placed on the
market by selling them to scalpers The
railroad people say Schroeder has practiced
+ this scheme for several months, and theil
loss is estimated at nearly $4,000.
Sam. j Roberts, editor of the Kentucly
Leader, was assaulted on The street at Lex
ineton, by Charles Scott, manager of the
opera house, who approached from behind
and struck a hall dozen quick blows before
Roberts recovered from the first blow. Mr.
Roberts has an ugly cash on the back of his
head, which physicians say was made with
some metallic Instrument. Scott was sub
sequently arrested on two charges-assault
and battery and cutting with intent to kill
The assault grew out ofcriticism of the opera
house management in the Leader. Mr.
Roberts wounds are not serious.
