MRS. LINCOLN BEATEN.
Her Contest Against the State
Park q FruiClesS One.

The suit of Vinette Lincoln against
tne boards of park commissioners,
brought to prevent the park board of
Minneapolis from Selling upon certain
lands at Mlnnebaha for the use of the
state park, has at last been decided, and
Mrs. Lincoln loses. The action has been
in the courts about a year. Under the
provisions of the law creating a state
park at Minnehaha. passed in 1855, the
park board took possession of the land
under condemnatory proceedings. Mrs.
Lincoln. who owned the land, contested
the action OF the board. Her contest
was passed on the assumption that the
bill creating that park had not passed
the senate. The written journal
of the senate states that the
bill passed by vote of rs
states. The following members
vote aye: (Here follows the names of
Instead of the names of tue seven MEM
beers voting nay, the written journal has

Lincoln held that the bill did not pass.

ever, was introduced in evidence ana

twenty-six ayes and seven nays. In
some states the written journal is the
record of legislative proceedings, but in
this state, Judge Lochren holds, Che
printed journal is the legal record and,
consequently, it is clearly proven that
the park bill passed. The error in the
written journal is, according to his de-
cision, merely clerical error, and In no
wise effects the legality of the act.
This decision removes one of the chief
obstacles to the turning of the land
around Minnehaha into park.

composition of plays of this class. It's
story is laid in the Sierras, land there are
a number Of sensational and startling
scenes and incidents, but comedy has
been given prominent place in the plot,
with the result that Dan O'ReilIy, in
the hands Of the character comedian, T.

and attractive feature of the production.

The Indians Afraid of Him.
Dexter Gazette


Though few know and still less believe it,
1t is fact that there is in the northern part
OF Maine, an animal that is known by the
Indians as the "lndian Devil"
He is the genuine North American pam
Their and is the only one ever seen or heard
In the state.
His hauhts afe Ia that~fegfon where the
counties of Penebscot, Piscataquis, and
Aroostook meet, but he has most frequently
been heard about Millinocket Lake in Pts
cataquis county and every little while sto-
ry appears in print that the screeches of q
panther are heard whereabouts. Few bell eve
tne reports. yet It Is fact, and more than
one lumberman will swear to it. He was
heard there twenty years ago by Bangor
hunter and this hunter was told by the In
dams who trapped there that they had heard
the same beast every winter for the previous
fifteen or twenty years.
he does not appear to have a mate as none
otner were ever heard.
NO instance was ever known where he had
attacked human being.
A trapper who had heard him, when asked
by reporter how the yell sounded, replied
that it sounds nothing like what any other
wild beast makes. 1t is blood curdling In
the extreme and seems to be half roar and
half wall, making mixture that would make
the stoutest heart quail.
This is great place for the Odtown and
other Indians to do their winters trapping
and wnen they started il, their first queS'
ton of the lumbermen about the lake. i
whether or not the'panther' has been heard
recently. If they receive an answer in the
affirmative they don't dare venture far from
the lake shore, as they say that the animal
has special hatred for their race, and from
that sprung his name Indian Devil"
This animal has now been in these woods
so long that 1t does not seem probable tina,
he will be menace great while longer.

STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST.

A Western stock company is being formed
by wealthy Maine men under the manage
ment of Mr.. l. G. Libby of Burnham. 1t
will be organized under the laws of Maine
with a capital stock of $3,O00.0OO, $1,000, 900
of which will he paid in, 1t will be known
rs the Maine and Montana Land and Sheep
Company, and the project is to purchase ex-
tensively of Montana ranches, stocking them
with sheep. Mr.. Libby at this time has the
option of over three hundred thousand dol.
lars worth of land in Montana and within a
few days he departs for the West to close
several bargains and attend to business of
the company. Mr.. Libby will be elected
manager. The enterprise has such men be-
hind1t as the Baileys, of Winthrop, who
have plenty Of money and do not make MANY
mistakes 10 investing it.
Libby d Merrill are more than satisfied
with their Montana ranch, which is 10 by 26
miles in extent 1t is stocked with 10000
sheep and they have in the brief time which
they have owned it, cleared the neat plum of
$4,000. They expect to raise 10000 lambs the
present season and shear 100000 pounds of
wool. While it costs $3.50 per year to keep
a sheep In Maine, Mr.. Libby says the cost ia
Montana is less than fifty cents per head.

1t Is probable that we shall hear little
startling from the two Senate committees
that have been examining our relations with
Canada. Senator Cullom's committee tx
amined that part Of the question relating
more particularly to railroads and transpur-
tation, while Senator Hoar's committee &C n
cerned itself with the general question Of
trade relations. The committees investigate d
the subjects quite thoroughly, travelling
many thousands of miles and examining
witnesses in all the large cities on the two
coasts and along the Canadian border. But
the probabilities are, according to the latest
Washington advices, that no report will be
submitted at this session of Congress. The
testimony taken shows that the only persons
anxious for increased intercourse with Can.
ada are some of the manufacturers of New
England and persons interested in Canadian
railroads. The shippers of the Northwest,
as arule, advocated that no restrictions be
placed on shipments to the East by way of
Canadian railroads, but their interest In
commercial union ended there. The farm
ers, particularly along the border are OPP
posed to it. Those in northern New York
and northern New England are asking for
increased duties on the Canadian farm prod.
ucts. Senator Cull0m evidently found it
would be dangerous to attempt to interfere
with the long established ways of transport
tation over the Canadian railroads into the
United States Both committees seem 10
have concluded to let the questions involved
work themselves out without interference
from Congress.
