Notwithstanding the disgraceful assaults
that are being made upon the characters of
two of the foremost men of to-day, Parnell
and Henry M. Stanley. Their service to

A man was given 60 days in Winona Jail
tho other day on account of cruelty to ami
mails. He hired team from liveryman
and drove them fast and without stop for
IS hours. when one of the horses dropped

deny that that man was guilty of greater
crime than he would have been had he
stolen the horses, yet the law says not. A
man is usually given from to years for
stealing horse.
