$3.50 for his claim n the others are
likelv to receive nothing. The council
last night offered them on an average
SIS each. This they decline to take and
in the trial hat is to follow will probab-
ly get nothing. The aggregate amount
of the claims is $4,000. 1t might be said,
however, that Aid. Kron's damages ex-
ceeded any of the others. The cases all
come ovsr from 1881, when the Minne-
sofa flooded Second street. The test
case will be continued tomorrow before
Judge Severance.
From Wednesday s DAILY FREE PRESS
"A marriage license was granted yes
terday to Mic Thirty and Helen Taehery,
both of this city.
Representative LassoI\ has been
confined to his bed at st. Paul for the
past four days but hopes to be able to
attend the sessions of the Legislature In
a few DAYS.
st. Paul and Minneapolis parties are
figuring on the inside finish of the court
house. 1t is expected that competition
will be so great that the county will be
saved several thousand dollars.
Our representatives in the Legisla-
ture will be left to decide in regard to
the charter amendment providing for a
Board of Public works. They will
doubtless be guided by the prevailing
sentiment in this city as they under
stand 1t.
As predicted yesterday, the meeting
of the Board of Education last night was
uninteresting. No one put IN an appear
nee to make objections to the proposed
amendments, there being practically no
one opposed to them. The amendments,
as reported by the special committee,
were hen adopted unchanged and the
President was directed to send a copy to
Representative Barr for introduction in
the Legislature and was also instructed
to correspond with Senator Pope in re-
gard TO the matter. 1t was attended to
to-day. No other matters came up. The
report that one of the lady teachers in
the Union school has resigned is untrue.
Auditor Scattergood took a trip to
st. Paul Yesterday to see the state audi
tor IN regard to certain township bonds
which will fall due soon. These bonds
issued by several townships to aid
the construction of railroads as fol-
For the st. Paul & Sioux City
road, Garden City, S12 $500; Vernon, ST.
500; for the Wells road, Napoleon, $12,-
500; Beauford, $500, Lyra, $4,000, and
Mankato township, $1,000. These bonds
are drawing seven per cent. interest.
The Garden City and Vernon bonds do
not become due until 1899, but are pay
able at any time beginning with this year.
The other bonds are not due until 1894.
The town board of Garden City has un-
Ter consideration a plan for levying a
sum of $500 q year to redeem one
bond each year, as a sinking fund; also
! plan to reissue the bonds at a lower
ate of interest. Mr.. Scattergood found
hat this is lawful. These bond can be
'e-issued at five per cent. interest, thus
aving two per cent. a year, which in
Garden City will amount to $3.50 and in
to $50. A law must be passed
~ the legislature to allow the towns to {
their bonds when they become
lue, otherwise the whole amount must
,e levied in one year.

PARMA NOTES.

Mrs. R. H. Stockton is quite
sick.
We learn that Miss Charlie Lu-
Gus was thrown from her horse the
other day, sustaining considerable
injury.
Last Friday evening we had a
crowded house at the debate. A
goodly number of the Tucker dis
trict were there. On the way home
a team belonging to Frank Gilbert
and driven by Ed. Gilbert, became
frightened, and in trying to run
away upset the buggy, throwing
several young ladies out upon the
frozen ground, hurting some of
them considerably. One of the
horses kicked Ed. Gilbert in the
forehead, inficting severe wound.
Last Saturday the Parma school
gathered. itself together and pre-
cipitated itself in the direction of
the island, and visited the school
taught by Miss Wallace. Your
correspondent is informed that Miss
Wallace is an excellent teacher.
The school say that they were
very agreeably entertained with
rhetorical exercises in which our
Parma school also Joined.
The debate for this week is
changed to Thursday night, on ac-
count of a dance to occur on Fri
day night at the house of Harvey
Carlisle.

started towards Judge Beaty's
office. While on my way there
was looking downward toward the
walk and wondering if the people
on the opposite corner would swear
me into the penitentiary, when
looked up and saw parties in front
of Beaty's Office. They seemed
excited, and l heard some one ask
for pistol. At this I turned and
walked back to the corner of the
post Office, and then turned down
the street running south and COM
menced running. 1 ran until l
fell over the bank of Indian creek

an irrigating ditch, which I follow
ed until l was in the road near
where Mr.. Lucus lives. stood
there awhile and thought of going
back and giving myself up, but 1
was afraid of Helms friends. I
concluded to 60 on to Mr.. Frost's
residence, about three-fourths of a
mile south Of town. l did so and
called out Byron Frost and had a
talk with. From there 1 went
around the town by the stock
yards and stopped with an old man
who lives up the river, near the
ford. The next evening I came
into town, stayed all night at the
corral, and the next morning I
up to Judge Beaty's resi-
dence and gave myself up.
Judge Beatty set last Monday for

A FIRE AT THE IOWA HOUSE.
A Correspondent of the Tribune Reveals
Some Interesting Facts.

There are certain times in the
life Of a man constituted as I am
when he wishes to be alone, hid, as
it were, from the rude gaze of the
| world, when he is sorry-not that
he lacks good solid horse sense
but rather for the fact that his
friends still allow him to live, and
move, and have his ordinary, every
day being, like a white man. How
ever the joke is on me, too good to
keep, so I will explain what caused
the smoke at the Iowa House early
Thursday morning, and how it hap
pened that one of the boarders and
roomers there was up an an hour
or SO earlier than usual that NOR
ming. The gentleman referred to
occupies room directly over the
office and during the cold weather
of the past few weeks had gained
the idea that things were coming
very smoothly for him, on account
of the accommodations there. The
stovepipe from the office stove runs
up through his boudoir, and every
night on retiring he would place his
James Means shoes and silken
stockings close by the stovepipe
aforesaid, SO that when the office
fire had been built on in the
morning, the warmth therefrom
would gently permeate and perco-
late through the above mentioned
articles of wearing apparel, and
make them comfortable on his feet.
At daylight on the morning of that
fateful day day he awakened from
his innocent and peaceful slumber
and was about to turn over and en-
Joy a few moments more of such
bliss as is only occasioned by lit
tie nap late in the morning when he
suddenly was forcibly reminded
that his sleeping apartment was
filed with smoke. With the easy
and nimble grace of cow rushing
through fine large quarter section
IF sagebrush, such as may be found
IN the immediate vicinity of Cald-
we'll, he leaped from his couch and
sazed with horror on the shoe-curd-
ing sight that presented itself to
lis gaze. The stovepipe had be-
come red hot and set fire to his
stockings, which were now in ashes
lot piece remaining larger than
IN ordinary mans foot. The shoes
we're cracking as though in a
endering kettle, having the fat
ried out of them. He quickly ex-
the burning debris and
lone too soon, as just then a couple
# men rushed in on him asking
What was burning. He quickly re-
gained his presence of mind, and
almly remarked that that piece
f paper had dropped against the
tovepipe and caught fire, causing
he smoke. The lie prssed unchal-
enged, owing to the we'll known
eracity of the liar, and thus the r
ubject would have have passed out
f mind, had not the conscience of
he young man troubled him, and
aused him to give the snap away
Hereafter the boarder with the {
bove vivid experience will keep
is shoes and stockings in the ice
hest.

FAST WALKERS,

A Quality the Farm Horse Should Possess.
In purchasing or hiring pillow horse
stake off mile of road. Mount the
horse and see how many minutes it will
take him to walk mile. A horse that
will walk three miles an hour is worth
at least three times as much as horse
that walks but two miles. The three
mile horse not only does as much work
in two days as the two-mile horse does
in three, but he enables the man behind
the pillow to do fifty per cent. more work
in day than he can do behind the two
mile horse. And the man and horse con-
sumo with the slow team fifty per cent.
more rations in doing the same work
than the fast walker does. In twelve
months the man would do no more cart
ing and blowing with the slow horse
than he would do in eight months with
the fast walker.
Suppose a farmer to hire a man and a
two-mile horse to do an amount of plow-
ing and carting that it takes three
months to perform, and pays So month
for the horse, 50 for his feed, and SIS for
the man, who boards himself; S24 a
month, three months, S72. If he hires
the same man at SIS month and pays
So for horse feed and 81 for a fast
walker, he can do in two months what
the slow team would do in three. Two
months, fast team and feed and plow-
man, at S25 month, $50. Direct loss
by slow horse, so. Besides, the work
done by the slow horse is not so well or
seasonably done-the seed may be put
in the ground too late, the grass may
get ahead of the pillow, and the indirect
loss by the slow team may be serious,
besides the S22 loss, as stated above
n, o. Picayune.
