boen torn half off the poles, Wallace
Iharshallsd his entire force of $50
men. Armed with rifles and various
other weapons this small army form
sd square, and told the crowd to

The grand isry in New Orlean.
have found true bill against two
men for jury fixing and bribery, but
the trouble is there is no law in that
state for the punishment of such q
crime.
TIE Legislature adjourned last
Thursday. Members of the House
presented to the speaker silver din
nsr and tea set. The speaker in his
speech Of acknowledgment was 50
overcome that he shed tears.
THlR, appears to be no law against
the bribing Of jurors in New Orleans
and it is feared that the two men
who ara under indictment by the
grand jury for bribins jurors will be
captured and lynchsd, as the matter
ings of discomfort is loud and wide
spread.

TIE grip Of an ants jaw is retained
even after the body has been bitten off
and nothing but the head remains.
This knowledge is possessed by GER
tain tribe OF Indians in Brazil, who
put the ants to a very peculiar use.
When an Indian gets cash cut in his
hand, instead Of having his hand sewn
together, as physicians do in this coun-
try, hc procures five or six large black
ants, and, holding their heads
near the cash, they bring their jaws
together in biting the flesh, and thus
pull tile two sides of the cash together.
Then the Indian pinches off the bodies
leaving the heads clinging to the flesh,

The Wheat Law Is Nil.

FARGO, N. D., Sept. 14-Judge Cald-

this morning, delivered an opinion in
the wheat inspection cases, both judges
concurring. The railroad commission

ly enjoined from interfering with the
movement of wheat in transit. The
injunction does not apply to the state
courts. The court holds that the law
is in conflict with the interstate and an
interference with interstate commerce
which alone can be governed by con-
gress.
