to be used as pretext. The senate COM
mittee on territories held meeting to-day
for the purpose of taking final. action on
the bill for the admission of Idaho and
Wyoming. The committee anticipated max
ing favorable report on these bills to-day,
but President Bishop Bulge, the head of the
Mormon church in Idaho, appeared and
asked that he be given a hearing in opposi-
ton to the Idaho constitution; which has q
stringent anti Mormon clause. Accordingly
the committee postponed final considera-
ton of the bills until Monday next, when
Bishop Bulge will appear by counsel, and
present an argument against the Idaho bill
Delegate Dubois of Idaho said to-day:
1.-THE position taken by Bishop Bulge only
strengthens US. 1t answers very effectually
the objection to the admission of Idaho
which has been put forward, that the con-
stitution was not strong enough to crush
out Mormonism. Bishop Bulge is a con-
fessed four-ply polygamist, and has long
been under Indictment. His action to-day
will only delay the report of the bill for q
week, think" The house committee on
territories has not yet taken up the Idaho

thinks the committee will be divided on

A Double Hit

Last week certain folks who wanted
to see us downed were chuckling be-
cause we were not invited to the grand
autumn soiree given by Mrs. Judge
Gilderslee, of Jackass heights. It was
social snub on us, we'll admit but
the aforesaid chuckling has ceased. It
broke short off day before yesterday
when the sheriff arrived from Omaha
and tapped the judge on the shoulder
and asked him how the business of COW
stealing got along.
We've had the biography of the
judge in hand for some months. He
robbed postoffice in Illinois, stole
hogs in Iowa and embezzled from a
toll-bridge in Indiana. On the top oil
that he stole COWS in Nebraska, and
when his wife made cold mutton of us
we went down to the telegraph Office
and dispatched the sheriff to come on.
We think we are about even. It is
not the policy of this paper, as we
have often stated, to deplete our popu-
lation by giving away" our citizens,
but no one must try any monkey shines
with us. We are here to stay.-Ari-

MUST ATTEND SCHOOL,

Wisconsin Goes into Effect.

The Compulsory Education Law in
Wisconsin Goes into Effect.
EAU CLAIRE, Special, To-day is
the first day of the period of twelve weeks
prescribed by the board of education, under
the Bennett law, during which each parent
or guardian must send children of school
age under his care to public or private
school. After the expiration of the twelve
weeks the duty of the parent or guardian,
if he has complied with the law, will have
been fulfilled for the year 1890. There is a
fine for each failure to send the children to
school for week. A school, in the eyes Of
the law under which the order of the board
is based, is a place of instruction where
reading writing. arithmetic grammar and
United States history are taught, in the En-
glish language. A question arose recently
threatened the failure of the law in this
city. The board had not given the required
notice as to the period of twelve weeks until
a month after the time set forth in the law.
The opinion of the attorney general was
obtained on this point, however, and he re-
CARDS this part of the law as directory and
not mandatory. The board will proceed to
sued in the Catholic parish schools, to find
out whether parents sending their chill
dren to these schools are complying with
the law.
At the first board of education meeting
tonight a corps of seven ''truant catchers''
were appointed by resolution. Their pre-
scribed duty is to scour the streets and alleys
and other public places and pick up chill
dren who ought to be in school, under the
Bennett law, to arrest them and place them
in school to be designated by their par
ents or guardians or by the board. Rigid
enforcement of the law is determined upon.

Uncle Gabe and the Bible

his efforts at missionary work among

his home. says Washington letter to
the New York Tribune. He selected

former slave, who had learned to read
in very crude way, and to whom he
offered s. if he would read the bible
through to the end. Gabe accepted
the offer and took away with him q
brand-new bible and began his wrestle
with the scriptures. Two weeks later
Gabe returned, bible in hand.
"Well, Gabe, how did you like the
book?''
Gabe hesitated to reply and was
pressed further.
''Well, Mars Colquitt, I tells you
how it is. don't like de book nohow."

your meaning" said the senator.

Paris keeps the streets clean by not

American unsuspiciously tore a letter

gutter, recently, just as he had doubt
less done hundred times at home. A
moment later policeman invited him
to retrace his steps and gather up the
fragment of waste paper, on the penal
ity of being arrested. The American
was a sensible man, and instead of pro-
testing that America was the only free
country on earth, he then and there
learned valuable lesson, and subse-
quently expressed his admiration of a
city which showed such respect for
itself.

WASHINGTON, Special Telegram,
Senator Davis to-day introduced bill for
the improvement of the locks at Sault Ste.
Marie and the Hay lake channel. He pro-
poses to make showing of the needs of the
proposed improvement, which is bound to
be heard in the legislature this season. For
this purpose he asked that the bill lie ON
the table until Thursday at the close of bus
mess, at which time he gave notice that he
desired to be heard on the subject matter of
the bill. He asks in the bill an appropria-
ton of 1878, S65 for the locks at the 500
and $1,6S4, lis for the Hay lake channel.
These amounts are the estimates by the
government engineers of what will be nee
essary to complete the work. Senator Davis
has devoted good deal of time to the study
of the situation at the 500. and his speech
on Thursday next is expected to bring the
matter to the attention of the senate in an
exhaustive manner.

A Valuable Decision.
American Analyst


The English courts have lately de-
cided that in case "where a wound
is given, which, in the opinion of
competent medical advisers, is dan
gerous, and the reatment which they
adopt is the immediate cause of
death, the party who inflicted the
wound is criminally responsible. !"
This decision was reached in a case in
which it was sought to shift the re-
sponsibility, from the person who in
ficted the wound, upon the doctors,
who sought to save the mans life.
Thus the surgeon is free from more
than ordinary responsibility in treat
ing such cases. AS a result he will be
inclined to undertake operations
that otherwise he would not. and so
give the accused a better chance of
avoiding the charge of murder.

A Touch Of Nature, Etc.

A first-class type of the American
tramp was shutting along Third
street yesterday morning, says the
Minneapolis Tribune. He looked pale
and emanciated, and the chill winds
whistled merrily through the air.
holes in his scant clothing. One hand
was thrust deep in his pocket while
with the other, the fingers of which
were blue with cold and begrimed
with the dirt of countless days, he
gripped the drum-stick of turkey,
the meat from which had nearly all
disappeared into his rapacious stom-
ach.
A dirty atom of humanity watched
him greedily as he carried the bone to
his mouth and stripped it of it's last
morsel of flesh.
The wistful look on the urchin's
face caught the gaze of the relic of
manhood and he stood musing for a
moment, while a tender look came
into his haggard eyes.
Hungry. sonny ?' he asked in q
husky voice.
'Betcher am" answered the ur-
chin. my, but bet dat leg was
good"
"Ere's annodder won," said the
tramp, drawing his concealed hand
from his pocket and displaying the
mate to the vanished leg. eyer can
have dis had bit of sonny like
yer myself in de days ago when I
wasn't like I am now"
The kid accepted the proffered NOR
sci and tackled it grecdily, while
tear trickled down the face that
watched him, leaving pale streak in
the dirt it washed in its course.
''Have a chew ?'' asked the bow,
proffering a chunk of the weed in
sympathy.
'Don't mind if I do, sonny" was
the answer, and the two representa-
tives OF the unwashed parted company,
leaving behind them a lesson which
no one but the reporter noted.

groes who left few grains of corn on

A few months before this fellow had
loaned his brother-in-law 10 cents, but
stipulated that he was to be repaid on
the following day at noon. The next
day was stormy. The wind blew q
nor'wester. In fact, it was long re-
membered as the day of the great
storm. The man kept watch for his
relative, and, when he did not arrive
at the hour agreed upon, he donned
his coat and hat, and, in spite of the
elements, walked five miles over the
mountains to get his money. Now,
gentlemen of the jury said l, do you
suppose that man who would do q
thing like that would deliberately kill
negro worth $1,000? No; most Of
you know him too we'll to believe that

TRENTON, N. J.,Special-Dr Kniffen made

his throat, from which he bled profusely.
Before cutting himself he took a large dose
of poison, but he is still alive and it is
thought he will recover. The people de-
mand the arrest of DR.. Kniffen and Miss
Purcell. The doctors attempt on his life
this morning is regarded as conclusive evil

says he did the deed because his troubles

had not made the admission of the other
