Baby Still in the Ring.

While Buffalo family was moving the mother suddenly missed the baby. The infant could be heard crying, and the mother finally conjectured that she was inside of roll of carpet. It was true. The baby had been left fin the middle of the sitting room floor, and the men who took up the carpet tossed a breadth over her without noticing her, rolled her up in it. and stood the carpet up in the hall. The child when rescued was punctured here and there with rusty tacks, and its mouth was partly stuffed with carpet dust, but otherwise it was quite hearty.-Detroit Free Press

KING OF CATTLE KILLERS.
Nelson Morris Floats Big Scheme
for Seaboard Abattoirs.

Nelson Morris Floats Big Scheme
for Seaboard Abattoirs.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2S.-Anew enterprise
involving 100000 has been entered
into by Nelson Morris, the packer. The
new scheme is the establishment OF
slaughter and packing houses, as we'll
as stockyards. at the seaboard east and
west. On Monday the Interstate Stock
yard company-the name of the new
organiZation-filed articles with the
state department at Trenton, N. j.,
with capital of S1,000,000. The new
company will at once begin building
houses in New Jersey, where all the
meats for foreign export across the At
lantic will be slaughtered. Heretofore
this trade has been supplied by
Morris & Co., from Chicago,
the cattle being slaughtered
here and shipped in refrig-
orator cars to the seaboard. 1t is known
that difficulties with the men employed
at the stockyards here have great
deal to do with the establishing of
slaughter houses on the coast. In San
Francisco Morris will build slaughter
houses, canning establishments and
stockyards. This will protect his West.
ern export trade. These houses will
reduce the loss by strike at any one
point to a minimum, and it is likely
that Morris will build houses at other
points on the coast. The object of the
new departure is also TO extend the
dressed beef trade to fields not yet
opened up The Oriental capitals and
the many islands of the Pacific ocean
have heretofore been strange to the
American dressed beef industry and it
is intended to introduce the dressed
meats in that territory. The new ven
ture does not mean that Morris will
curtail his Chicago business.

DAYS OF JUDGE TwoHY.

And behold. it was the 2Sth day OF the
month. and in the prisons about the city
were men and women arrested for divers
offenses and crimes against the laws oi
the state. "And now say l unto you,
bring forth these people that L may deal
with them according to their sins.
Thus spake the Judge, and the offlcerS
of the court gave heed unto his COM
mand And there came before the Judge
a man gray with age and bent, ana stoou
waiting that sentence might be pro-
nounced upon him. Then spaKe ah
officer to the judge. saying: benolu.
this man is drunkard, and knows iioI
good whisky from bad" ana Tie guosg7
answered and said: "Art thou DAVID
Hoar, he whose abiding place is the city
prison at Lake Eimo"' and the prisoner
answered and srid: behold, l am that
man. Then" replied the judge,
.'thou art surely thine own enemy, ana
thy wife's enemy, and the enemy OF
mankind. Go thou again to the WOOD
pile at Como for thirty days and thirty
nights. and mediate on thy SINS"
Then came one Wagner, named Otto.
accused of stealing his neighbor's cow.
And he addressed the court saying:
tBehold | bought this COW from a
strange man, and paid to him thirty
pieces of silver for her purchase price"
And the officer spoke, saying: verify
l say unto thee thou speakeSt not the
truth, for thou hadst filled the coWDell
with grass from the fields, that the
tongue thereof might not sound" ana
Otto got sixty days suspended sentence
on the COW deal.
Then came man named HolqulSt,
crier, and answered to the crime OF rob,
bling travellers coming to the city. And
he said Il am surely innocent. and
know not this man." "Tnen,' SAID the
Judge, ''come before the court on the
both day of the month, and the ninth
hour, and prove thyself innocent"
Then the officers brought forward two
ragged mendicants called James Clancy
and August Haekman. And the judge
questioned them saving: Wherefore
contest thou again within the justice
hail." and they answered ''behold we
are travellers passing through the city
and seeking employment" And the
Judge replied: Saw wood for thirty
days" ;.
And there came others, some mendl-
cants, and others thieves and,yagabonds
from the evil places of the earth, and
the Judge meted out to each his punish
ment, and when all had been dealt with
the court closed.

FARMERS WILL CAMP.
Iowa Agriculturists Will Visit the
State Fair.


State Fair.
Secretary Liggett, of the state fair,
Yesterday received an application from
a.party of Iowa farmers for permission
to camp on the fair grounds during the
coming fair. The request was granted
on the terms usually made at fairs
where the practice is in vogue. At the
Iowa state fair camping is very pOpu-
lar and is encouraged. and it is likely
that next year the Minnesota farmers
will receive a special invitation to be
present with tents. All who want
may come this year, though
it is now rather late for ar
rangements to be made. Application
TO the authorities for the use OF tents
during the season has been made, and
it is possible that a good many may be
accommodated this year. There Is no
charge for the privilege of camping.
Parties coming with teams must pay the
regular price of admission at the gates,
and that will entitle the team to remain
on the ground during the fair. Ali
visitors who remain on the ground over
night. whether camping or not, must
procure tickets from the treasurer for
the following day. which will be col
Iected by the patrol in the morning.
l.. II. Wilcox, superintendent of the
department of bees and honey, came to
the city yesterday and visited the fair
grounds. He reports that while it has
been bad year for bees and he will not
be able to make as extensive an exhibit
as he had intended, still he will
have a very fine display, and
one much more complete than might
have been expected. Secretary Liggett
made flying trip to Wisconsin the
other day and secured herd Of choice
Guernsey cattle. which will be on eX-
hibition. n. P. Clarke has entered

HAS THE REQUIRED SPEED.
The Cruiser San Francisco Runs
90 Knots an Hour.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, Aug. 2S.-
The cruiser San Francisco was visited
by large crowds yesterday afternoon
and evening while lying at anchor
here. Her search lights were re-tested
last night. The vessel left here this
morning at O'Clock, and will arrive at
San Frapcisco early tomorrow morn
ing. The report of the naval board was
forwarded to Washington this morning,
1t comments in a most favorable man
ner upon the trial, and gives the aver
age speed for the run of four hours
as 10 40 knots. which is about one
tenth of knot in excess of the recent
record of the Philadelphia. The figures
given out yesterday, 19H knots, were
only rough calculation of the board.
The figures as sent to Washington are
subject to correction, as the board has
still some calculations to make based on
the tidal and current observations which
it is expected will give the San Francis
co still higher rate of speed, and pos
sible an average rate OF 1871. The
board also say that the last 10 knots OF
the run were made at the rate of 206-l0O
per hour. The horse power developed
is estimated at about $500.

CULLEN CANNOT SWALLOW
Fen Hours Pay for Eight Hours
Work.

Acting Mayor Cullen. in speaking to
a GLOBE representative last evening on
the eight-hour resolution which he has
vetoed, said that when the law was
passed fixing the rate of wages to be
paid the employees of the city by the
day, no limit of time was mentioned as
to the amount of work to be done. 1t
was governed by the custom prevailing
among the contractors in the city which
was ten hours a day. and Mr.. Gull
len thought that it was not fair
for a man employed by the
city to be paid $3.50 for eight hours
work. while man who worked across
the street for contractor had to work
ten hours for the same money. Mr..
Cullen said he would explain his rea-
sons for the veto fully to the city conn-
Gil at the next meeting. The acting
mayor is IN favor of an eight-hOur move
ment which would not cause an Unjust
ice to workmen who are not in posi-
ton at Ssesent to demand it.
