Case.

A Fourth of July Relic in
the Police Court Yes
terday.

Deputy District Attorney Baxter ar
rived in the city from his Faribault
home, where he had spent the Fourth,
yesterday, and at once resumed his in
vestigation of the evidence in the Min
neapolis census matter. During the
morning hours, however, District At
torney Hay had employed his time in
looking over the documents that Deputy
Marshal Daggett had captured from
the Minneapolis manufacturing
annex" together with United States
Inspector Boudinot. When Mr.. Bax-
ter arrived he found them
thus engaged. Detective Mason,
through whose shrewdness these papers
had been seized, was not present. He
has already acquainted Mr.. Baxter with
every detail of the evidence he col
lated as Ed Stevens confidential clerk,
and it is likely that he is not now need
ed until the cases come up for hear
ing, unless, indeed, he may be wanted
by deputy marshal to assist in identi-
flying the people wanted.
Mr.. Baxter had very little to say for
the public anent the case. He had not
noticed the stories published that he
had abandoned the prosecution because
but he wondered at the audacity of the
papers that had originated the sensa-
ton.

he THAT Commissioner Morey, of Wi
mona, will hear the cases. l have the
greatest respect for Mr.. Morey and be-
lieve he is satisfactory to all parties
concerned"

Il have considerable more to do in
preparing the case" he continued mys-
teriously, land, more than that, there
are many things in this case it will not
do to publish in advance of issuing the
processes"
Mr.. Baxter returned nome last night
to spend Sunday. He will resume work
Monday, and it seems quite probable
that action will be taken in few days.
Whether or not Mr.. LAWYER or Mr..
Mum will be associated with Mr.. Bax-
ter in the cases is unknown. That is
one of the points upon which
no one seems willing to talk.
Mr.. Mum returned yesterday
from Connecticut, where he has been,
accompanied by Mrs. Mum, visiting
friends since his interview with Attor-
ney General Miller. MI. Mum had
nothing to relate that has not been fully
gone over in these columns. He says
he enjoyed his vacation and is now
willing to contribute anything he can to

Noah Williams, farmer in Winston
County, Ala, had an exciting adventure
with door few daysago, which Came
near costing him his life. Williams, it
appears, went out hunting, armed only
with small squirrel rifle. lie had
tramped through the woods several hours
with indifferent success and sat down on
log to rest lie had been sitting there
only n few minutes when he saw a large
deer walking toward him. The deer
was about one hundred yards away, but,
fearing the animal would take fright and
got away before hr could get shot, the
hunter raised his rifle and fired. n.iI
AT the report of the gun tho deer
dropped to the ground, and without
waiting to load his gun Williams ran to
secure his game. lie was within twenty
feet of the PROSTATE deer, when the ami
nal suddenly lcapcd to its feet and
sprang ut the hunter. Before he even
had time to raise his gun to defend him.

Then the deer lcapcd into the mir, and
with his sharp hoofs close together, cnmo
down on the body Of the PROSTATE man,
cutting his flesh severely Again and
again the deer lcaprd on the writhing,
struggling man, and each time the sharp
hoofs cut terrible wounds in the hunter >
body and limbs.
Williams, fortunately, did not lose his
presence Of mind, and managed To get
his pocket knife open. Then he strug-
glcd to his hands and knees and finally
succeeded in catching the deer by tho
horns with one hand, and with the knife
i'll the other. he commenced cutting Mt
animals neck und throat. II was dcs-
pcratc struggle, for the man was growing
weak from loss Of blood; but he was mad
with pnin, and finally succeeded in roach
ing vital spot with his knife, and in u
few minutes the deer lay dead ut his feet
Williams finally succeeded in stopping
the flow of blood from his wounds and
with difficulty maids his way home. Ito
sent his son aud u ncighbor after the deer
and his gun.
An examination of the body of the
animal showed that the bullet from Will
liams's rifle struck the deer about the
centre of the forehead and ilattcncl
against the skull without breaking it,.
The force Of the ball had been lust
enough TO knock the animal down and
stun il for II minute. Wiiliumss clothes
were torn 10 shrcds and his body nccr-

A Plilcky MnrclIi0ness.

l The news that tho Marquis De Morcs
had fought duel with some caustit
French editor, recalls some of the nd-
ventures of that cratic noblcmnn in
this country. The Marquis De Mores is
the son of the Duke OF Vallambrussn,
and after catching II wealthy American
States, where he succeeded in spending
large amount of the dowry in mar
vclously short period of time. Passcn-
gers upon the Overland Northern Pa
citic trains always note with interest the
little town of Mcdora, Dakota, the scene
OF the Marquis's most disastrous spccula-
ton. Mcdora, so named after tho wife
OF the Marquis, is situated in the heart
of the Bud Lands, and n more dcsolatc
place it would be hard to find. Sand
and volcanic scoriG; stunted trees and Il
few scanty teaches of bunch grass; in
the spring time II sluggish alknli stream,
which disappears completely upon the
approach of summer. The forlorn at
tributes Of an altogether nigeard nature
mark the place where the Marquis and
his wife set up their household gods
some ten years since. Surely il was a
change from Partisan salons, but many
friends came out from France, and the
house of the Marquis was filed with
guests of cithor sex from day TO day.
The Marquis entered enthusiastically
into great packing project, and vast
amornt of money was spent in erecting
elaborate packing houses ut Mctlora. The
scheme fell through, howcvcr-incxpc-
rienced, perhaps, or All inability to Crap

did, and the Marquis and the Nlarchon-
ess fitted back again to gay Paris.
They tell great many stories of the
Marquis in the Bud Lands, for he WINS II
high-spiritcd, hot-tcmpcrcd man, and
often took the painsmen against the
grain. Indeed, he had killed his man in
some frontier aifray, and perhaps il was
lucky that he returned to France when
he did. Toward the end of his stay ut

Farm Animals in the United States.

A late report of the Department of
Agriculture which relates TO numbers
and values Of farm nnimnls, shows an in
crease of horses during the year beyond
the increase of population. The aggre-
gate numbers exceed ii, 900, 900. In the
cotton States the use of Texas ponies by
tenants still tends to increase numbers
and reduce average values. The improve
mcnt in the central States from blood of
Perchcrons, Cleveland bays, and English
sres continues active. Horse ranches
in the Rocky Mountains are improving
the stock of TINT region. The increase
of numbers in recent years, while prices
were tending higher, has caused nm ebb
in the tide of values, which are nearly
everywhere lower thhn in january last.
Mules have also increased, and are esti-
mated at about two and third millions,
held at slightly lower prices than last
year.
Mich cows make an aggregate of nearly
16, 900, 900. Prices, in sympathy with
values of other cattle, show slight de-
cline rs compared with those OF last year.
The numbers of other cattle continue to
increase, while the prices have fallen in
still lnrgN ratio during the year. The
numbers rs estimated exceed SO, 900, 008,
an increase of between ten and eleven
millions since 1880, which is larger than
the ratio Of numbers to population.
An increase of about four per cent. in
numbers of sheep is indicated. The
lowest average price was reported in 1886.
Improvement has been gradual since,
with some acceleratiou during fho past
year, as result Of greater confidence o.
growers in holding the American market

The increase in swine has been In pG

Can Fish Hear!

1t has always been more or less Of .
disputed question whether or not fish
possess the sense of hearing. Some in
this direction by Mr.. John w. Masury at
his trout hatchery mt Eastport, L. I.
There were present on the occasion Mr..
William G.. Barrett Mr.. Frank ii. Pal.
mcr and other noted anglers The trout
were in narrow stream which travcrsed
the building from end to end. At the
lower corner was erected Il screen. he.
hind which the operator took position
Every variety OF noise was made by the
person in conccalmcnt and amid it all the
trout remained perfectly motionlcss; but
as soon as handkerchief was waved
above the top OF the screen the fish
dartcd toward the upper end of the
building at n high rate of speed. UT
Some fishermen who set their nets in
our estuaries and bays have habit OF
making noise by striking the sides OF
their boats with an oar or stick while
moving toward the spot at which their
gill nets are set. This is done with the
idea that the fish hear and are frightened
by the fracas into moving forward. Some
of these fishermen, while they follow the
practice, maintain that 1t has no effect
whatever, unless the fish are in sight.
Then it il the movement of the oar or
stick, which is visible to them, that
drives them onward. In the face OF the
learned authorities that have maintained
that fish do hear, il would be prcsumptu-
Gus to positively assert the contrary

GOt1ly and yanda1s.

Tho Cloths and Vandals, 80 frequently
mentioned in European history were
wild Gcrmanic tribes that ovorran South
crn Europe from the second to the fifth
century. When first known to the Ro-
mans, the Goths had settled along the
Danube and tho Alps; the Vandals were
south of the Black Sea. Both of these
tribes pressed southwcstward, and in
7adcd Italy, Spain, and Africa, making
several attacks upon tao city OF Rome.
The Romans were repeatedly defeated,
and their temples stripped Of their orna-
mcnts to buy their favor. The greatest
leader of the Goths was Alaric, in the
fifth century, who three times took
Rome, and once sat upon the throne,
rival Emperor to Honorious. The rec
ognized ruler Chief of tho Vandals, was
Genseric, who, at the bidding of Eud-
doxia, vito of the murdered Emperor,
took ROM, aad gave the city up to BIO
pillaged y his soldiers for fourteen
days. AT one time tho Roman army was
largely composed of Cloths and Vandals;
who, furnished with Roman arms, were
we'll prepared to conquer their masters.
The downfall of Rome in 476, A. D..
was accomplished by the combined hosts
of Hups, Cloths, Vandals, AIani, and
Franks, and the spoil was divided be-
tween the conquerors. ,tss,;
