RocHEFoRT IN LONDON.

The WarlIke Editor sneaI1s TimIdly into
London, Fearing an UnIeasant Reception.
LONDON. April 27.-The reports con-
corning the departure Of NJ Henri Roche
fort from Brussels, and his arrival in
England, have been conflicting and
without doubt were designedly So 1t
was given out at first that he had been
left behind in Brussels when Boulanger
and his companions in exile left the Bel
gian city. Later it was reported that
the valiant editor accompanied his chief
in his English invasion, and still later
this was denied.
The facts are that Rochefort was left
in Brussels and came over alone, steal
ing into London at night very quietly,
and going unobserved to Madame Dieu-
donne's hotel on Ryder street.
The reason for so much secrecy and
caution is that Rochefort feared rough
reception at the hands Of an English
mob on account of the numerous anti
English utterances to which he has given
expression in his paper during the last
dozen years or so. He was afraid his
delicate wish that the Mahdi might an
initiate Gen. Wolseley and his command
when the latter was conducting the
Egyptian campaign would stir up resent
ment in the English breast.

buffalo. April 27.--Fred Ryers, once
q champion pool player and awell known
sport, died twice after spending the
night in a Chinese opium joint in Broad
way near Pine street.
Policemen found him lying in front Of
the laundry Of Hong Kong and Hong
Sing. where he had been dumped in a
heap. His face was purple, and his
swollen tongue protruded from his
mouth. He was quickly taken to the
Emergency hospital, where the surgeons
cut into the windpipe and inserted q
silver tube.
The pulse ceased beating just then and
the lungs refused TO operate. :" He Is
dead, !" said one of the doctors. But they
kept on working, and in half an hour
had restored the patient to life by fore
ing artificial respiration. Ryers, how
ever, remained Unconscious, and an hour
later he was dead again.
The police raided the opium den, cap
tured the smoking layouts and arrested
the two frightened proprietors as they
were trying to escape. The discovery of
the joint and Ryers' death have made a
big sensation in sporting and other cir
Giles. Ryers had only lately become a
fiend. When the Cinnamon found that
he had smoked too much they threw him
out in the street.

READING, Pa, April 27.-Arbor day
received the usual observance in the rural
districts Of Berks county, although not
to the same extent as last year, owing to
the season being further advanced. Trees
and slrubbery were planted on public
school grounds. In this city there was
considerable planting in the public park.
the commissioners having granted
citizens the privilege of doing this, and
Of attaching their names to the trees thus
planted. One nursery firm took a large
number of orders for this purpose. The
planting cf fruit trees has been more
general in Herks county this spring than
In any previous year, farmers being Of
the opinion that fruit culture pays better
than production Of the cereals.

Mr.. WINDOW put in appearance at st.
Paul Thursday, but the event made very
little of the sensation which was predict
ed. The Sabin men do not appear 10 be
greatly agitated, and that gentleman
himself expresses no alarm at what Mr..
Window may do. The Missionaries
are of course raising great amount of
noise over the expressed feeling of Mr..
Window In Washburn's favor, but 1t is
very evident that they are only using
their usual tactics, and that the alleged
strength added by Mr.. Window to their
cause is principally made of their loud
mouthed and windy claims. No one
supposes Mr.. Window would favor SEN
ator Sabin, and very likely as between
the two he fayors Washburn, but that is
very far from taking any active part in
Washburn's behalf. 1t is well-known
that at Mr.. WINDOWS former home, Wi
mona, there is no Washburn sentiment,
and Mr.. Window is hardly likely to an
tagonize this feeling by taking hand in
a contest IN which he rightfully has no
cause to interfere. If he is here for any
other purpose than that of "private bust
ness" it is probable to keep his eye on
William WINDOWS chances. There are
a great many people who think dark
horse has the pole in this race, and MIR.
W. may have been impressed with this
idea himself. Or, perhaps, he is the
southern Minnesota man our friend of
the Winona Republican has been myster-
:ously booming. However it may be,
we are confident that Mr.. Sabin's
chances are not at all damaged by Mr..
WINDOWS appearance. He has not
been basing his claims on wind, and
therefore is not in the plight of Mr..
Washburn.

Pioneer Press: A number of the pub
fishers of newspapers throughout the
state are DESTROYS of securing change
in the law regarding the publication of
legal notices. They are anxious to have
the cost of publishing tax lists increased
from Is cents to 25 cents for each de-
scription. The latter figure is regarded
as only fair compensation. as the ma
jogity Of descriptions run into two, three
or four lines. 1t is also claimed that leg
islation is desirable providing that chat
tel mortgages shall be published, instead
of posted, as at present. Several publish
ers who are now in the city are taking
steps to have business meeting of the
Minnesota Editorial association called at
an early date to discuss these questions,
suggest other desirable amendments.
and press them on the attention of the
legislature.
This is doubtless all important enough,
but it will not remedy the situation in
localities where there are several half
starved, one-horse publications ready to
do the work at five or six hundred per
cent. discount. The strange part of it
Is that many public officers think it is
smart thing to tell at how much below
regular (living) rates they have their
public advertising done.

oEsTITUTIoN IN DAKOTA.

Great Suffering Said to Prevail Among
Norwegian Settlers In No-thern Walsh
County.
PARK RIVER, Dak., Jan. Great dec
titution and suffering exists among the
Norwegian settlers in the extreme west
ern part Of this county. The suffering
seems to be confined to narrow strip of
country along the Pembina mountains,
where the land is billy and poor. Mr..
Riches, Baptist minister here, had &C.
cured lot of clothing and provisions
which he sent out to be distributed
among the settlers, selecting two reliable
men to take charge of the articles. The
men have just returned and reported the
condition in which they found the peo-
pie. They distributed the goods as fairly
as they could among fifteen families and
said they knew of between forty and
fifty equally destitute families. In these
there are an average of five or six little
ones to each family without pants, coats,
dresses, stockings, shoes, caps, mittens,
or anything but a few old rags. Most
of them have been living on porridge
made by cooking up their frozen green
wheat and oats, stuff not fit to feed q
hog on. One family had not seen any
flour for six weeks. Nearly all were en-
tirely out or nearly out of -four. Some
have enough to last three or four days
yet, but no potatoes or turnips. The peo-
pie have been dividing with each other
their potatoes until now they are gone,
too. Measures have already been taken
for the relief Of the settlers and their
wants win be supplied until another crop
can be harvested.

LESUEUR Sentinel: In furtherance OF
the scheme, shrewdly planned, for pro-
vidlng State park at Minnehaha Falls,
for which law was passed IN 1885 for
the appointment of commissioners to Sc
lect lends for a site, we learn that is the
intention of interested persons to have
an appropriation passed at the coming
session of the Legislature to complete
the purchase. 4 tract of 173 acres has
been selected, which is within the cor
porate limits of Minneapolis, and we
learn that it has been appraised at $500
per acre, whereas it is worth from $4,000
to S., 900 per acre. But even il it should
be obtained at the appraised valuation,
without being carried into the courts, it
would cost about $40, 900. But this would
be simply an entering wedge to work
upon, and the cost would probably be
half million dollars by the time the
park was suitably ornamented. The
whole thing is scheme of Minneapolis
and st. Paul real estate spectators, and
the two cities, of course, will back it.
What do the people of the State of Min
nesota care about buying and mainta n
ing a magnificent park for the use and
benefit of st. Paul and Minneapolis?
That is all it would be-a pleasure ground
for the two cities-and if they want it
let them pay for it.
