SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY IS.

NECESSITY OF SLgEP.-The are many
thousands of busy people who die for want
of sleep every year. s!eeplessness becomes
a disease. We spesk of sleep as the image
of death, for 1t is the period in which the
waste of the 81 stem ceases, or is reduced to
she minimum. Sleep repairs the waste
which waking hours have made. 1t re
builds the eys,en. The night Is the repair
shop of the body. Every part of the sys
tenn Is thoroughly oVerhauled, and the or
pans, tissues and substances are replenisheo.
Waking consumes and exhausts; sleep re-
places and repairs. A man who could be 9
good worker must be q good sleeper. "a
man has az much force in him as he has
provided for in sleep. The quality OF men
tai activity depends on the quality OF sleep;
Men need, OH an average, eight hours 81
sleep q day. A lympbatic temperance.
NAV rt uuire nine; q nervous Temperament
six or seven. A emphatic man Is sluggish
moving and sleeping slowly. But a ner
vons man acts quickly in everything. he
does more 10 one hour than a sluggish man
In two hours; and 80 in his sleep. Every
man must sleep according 10 bis ienpera.
mapt; but eight hours Is the average.
Whoever, by work, pleasure, sorrow, or any
other cause, is regularly diminishing his
sleep, Is destroying bis life.

Fighting for the County Seat.

LAMAR, Colo. Sept 24.-Word has
just been received OF serious trouble be-
twesn the towns OF Boston and Springfield
in Baca County.
Since Baca County was made from Las
Animas County by the last General As
sembly there has been strife existing be-
tween these two towns as TO which should
retain the county seat The act organizing
the county provided that Springfield
should be the county seat, aud al the elcc-
tion held last fall it is alleged that 0y the
manipulation OF the ballots it was made
the permanent county seat The people
Of the town OF Boston claim that Spring
field has not the 5000 worth OF county
property necessary TO prevent the county
seat from being moved by a majority vote
this fall.
The only available building for county
court house was hotel building at Bos-
ton A few weeks ago this was sold al
sheriff's sale and was bought oy Spring
field parties. Saturday hight party left
Springfield for Bost-u with machinery
costing $1,000, intending to move the
building to the former town and use it as
court house, thus preventing the county
seat issue being raised tnis fall by reason
OF permanent Improvements being made.
Rollers were put under the building, which
is the finest in the county, and three
stories high, and twenty teams were
hitched TO H.
Inside the house were stationed twelve
men with Winchester rides. The build
ing was moved about five miles towards
Springfield, which is about twenty-hy
miles from Boston, when the people OF the
latter place discovered the trick and i'm
mediately organized. All available horses
aud rifles were brought into requisition
and pursuit was made.
Upon overtaking the party they COM
manded halt, which was answered by
volley of shots from the meu inside the
building. The Boston crowd then free
and a fierce battle ragged, which ended H.
the Springfield party being driven from
the building Coal oil was then poured
on the floors Of the building, which was
entirely consumed.
Great excitement prevails, but owing to
the isolation Of the towns, Springfield
being over fifty miles from Lamar, which
is the nearest railway station, news is
hard TO obtain. Several parties arrived
here last night and departed hurriedIy,
after buying all the cartridges they could
find in town.
II is reported that several parties were
seriously wounded and two killed during
the fight, but the news is not authentic

Robbed at the Altar.

BONN, Sept. 24.-While a young
girl was praying before the shrine Of the
Virgin in chapel in the forest of Rhein-
back stranger entered and, locking the
door, he then attacked the sole occupant
and tried to rob her of her jewels. A
struggle ensued, during which frail
altar that stood before the shrine was torn
down. The noise attracted the attention
of some woodchoppers who happened to be
in the neighborhood and they forced an
entrance, rescuing the girl, but allowing
her assailapt to escape.

Irving to Release an Anarchist.

CHICAGO, Sept. 24.-Another legal
step toward the relel e Of the anarchists
now confined in the pententiary was taken
in the Federal Court to-day in the shape
of petition for writ Of habeas corpus
on behalf of Michael Schwab.
This has been contemplated for some
time, but the petition setting up the
grounds upon which it is sought to release
The anarchists has Just been completed by
Attorney Moses Solomon, who appeared
as one of the attorneys for Parsons at
the time Of the Criminal Court trial. Mr..
solomon says he has associated with him
in this case General b. F. Butler, and a
letter from the latter makes the assertion
that the prisoners are entitled to discharge
unaer the law.
Technical omissions in the wording of
the process upon which Schwab is held at
Joliet, and the point that, contrary to the
record, he was not present, either in per-
son or by counsel, when sentence was
affirmed by the Supreme Court of Illinois,
form the basis of the petition for habeas
corpus.
Judge Gresham, to whom the petition
was presented, issued rule on Attorney
General Hunt to show ciuse by Monday
why the writ prayed for should not issue
