AUGUSTA, Me-, Oct. 9.-When f G.
Allen, the millionaire publisher, died
Aug. 9, he was supposed to be an m
ried man, and his vast fortune was being
divided among his relatives until a very
recent date, when a woman appeared
upon the scene with papers establishing
her claim as the wife of the dead million
aire. The manner of her appearing added
to the mystery of the case. Two guards
were stationed at the grave to Illustrate
any attempt to steal the body, and on the
very night following the funeral a woman
heavily yelled appeared at the grave at
about midnight. She threw herself on
the mound and wept bitterly for half an
hour. The two guards. thinking she was
a member of the family. did not interfere.
and she was allowed to depart unaccosted
Next day the guards told Mr.. Aliens sis
ter of the episode, and she denounced the
woman as an imposter. Since her the
N has sought Miss Allen and has
proved conclusivelv to the latter hat she
is the legal wife OF the publisher 1t was
a great surprise to the family. The latter
will make no statement regarding the
affair at present.

An English paper declares that the pres
ent year has for some reason been I'M
usually prolific in deaths from chloro
form. Two were reported during a sin
gle week at British instantaneous Mt
Middlesex hospital and the other Mt
Liverpool. The Manchester infirmary
alone has been the scene of four or five
similar accidents since the beginning OF
the year. Juries at c~oroners' inquests
have in all cases returned formal verdicts
of death by m~isadventure, which under
the circumstances was all they could do.
Nevertheless" says the paper. 'the i'm
preston is forced upon laymen who have
read the medical evidence given at these
inquiries that doctors are very much in
Che dark respecting the action of chloro
form Upon heart and lungs. 1t does not
carry us far to say that death resulted
from syncope, for, in one sense or another,
NIL death Is due to syncope. The question
to decide is whether chloroform acts first
upon the heart or upon some other organ
The Hyderbad commission, which investi
gated the matter with much labor, came
to the conclusion, If we remember rightly,
that the primary effect was not upon the
heart, but upon the respiratory organs, and
If this finding is true, it SHOULD be possible,
with appropriate remedies, to prevent fatal
accidents

A Mormon Mvrter.

United States Marshal Rankin has
just returned from a trip TO Northwestern
Wyoming where he arrested Geo. Il.
Little for cutting timber on government
land. The place where the depreciation
was being committed is south of the
Yellowstone park and some thirty miles
east of the Idaho line. 1t is a country of
splendid timber and just over in Idaho
are large Mormon settlements. but they
are short of TIMBER. The supposition is
that Little was an adventurer who was
cutting timber more to find out whether
or not it would be safe for the Mormon
settlers to make the attempt than
anything else. At any rate he is a Mormon
and Is proud Of the fact and seemed to be
regarded as a myrter. Little was tried be-
fore United States Commissioner William
Hinton in Evanston. found guilty and as
he could not give bail in the SUN of $500.

A HANDY MAN.
Peter Bergersen kiIIs Meat without
Losing Any Time.

Surveyor General Richards arrived in
the city Thursday aud will leave for the
West again today. Since leaving Chey-
anne Mr.. Richards has made a long trip
on which he was accompanied by Peter
Bereersen. They. left the railroad at
Casper and went through South pass to
the Big Sandy, making a circuitous route
and striking the Union Pacific at Green
River. They we're out for business and
had no tune to hunt. However, Berger
sen proved a handy man, and although
the antelope proved too fly Tor him at fret
no bacon was eaten by the party after they
got into the game country. One day
Richards and Bergersen were surveying;
Bcrgersen was doing the Tagging. He
stopped on a hill and after Richards
caught the point all right, killed an ante
lope. packed it in on his horse and was
back to the point ready to go ahead by the
time Richards was. Not a moment was
lost and Mr.. Richards thinks a man who
can do the fl Logging and kill meat for the
party without losing any time is certainly
a very handy man.
One morning when they were camped
on the Big Sandy two bands of about
twenty antelope each came to the creek to
drink and were very near the tent. Not
a shot was fired, as the party had some
twenty or more quarters hanging out to
cool at the time. The sight was an inter.
esting one. especially the way an old buck
rounded up the herd and got out of there
when he began to think there might be
danger near.

English Politics.

LONDON, Oct. Sat no time since the
break up of the Liberal party on Glad.
stones introduction of the home rule bill
have political circles been in such a state
OF ferment as now. The question of sue
c~ession to the leadership made vacant by
the death of VIM. Henry Smith excites
the hopes and fears of Conservatives and
Liberals alike. Parnell's disappearance
from the field of politics adds to the per-
plexity and heightens the interest of the
situation. Members of the Carlton club
refuse to believe that Salisbury will APP
point Goschen to Smiths position despite
the open declaration made by the friends
of Goschen that if he is passed over he
will resign his place in The government.
The Liberals earnestly desire Goschen,
knowing they could rely on his conduct as
a leader to p~recipitate the dissolution OF
parliament. From a minister not in the
cabinet but thoroughly versed in the stu
alton it is learned that the whole official
circle concur in the desirability that Sir
Michael Hicks Beach succeed to the lead
ership. Balfour himself advocates that
appointment and says his own hands are
too full with the Irish government bill.
Lord Salisbury keeps silent, dreadlng a
breach with Goschen and the Unionists,
aud equally fears the evaporation of the
Conservatives if he places Goschen.
The attitude of leading Paruelites put
it beyond doubt that their determination
Is to maintain the conflict with the follow
ers of Justin Mccarthy. The talk of the
Irish group in the National Liberal ciut
indicates the existence of a proposal to
avoid a contest by giving the Cork seat to
a Parnellite and Kilkenny to an adherent
of Mccarthy. The temper of the Par
nellites IS against any compromise. Want
of money alone is likely to dampen their
combative ardor. In relation to the Paris
fund there are queer rumors that it will
be found so depleted that there is almost
nothing left. MI. Parnell's personal
finances, as is well known, were seriously
reduced during the past two years. A
few weeks before his death he came to
London seeking an extension of the time
on several bills. He was not e~xtravagant
personally. but he beggared himself IN
his secret expenditures in the cause Of
home rule.
The mentien of the name of John Red
mond as a sectional leader arises from
Parnell's recent confiding to him the con
duct OF the campaign in Great Britain. 1t
is improbable that the section will recog-
nize this sufficiently to give Redmond the
right Of leadership. Their dilemma leads
the name of William Shaw to be again
heard. 1.-THE Parnellites resort to his ad
vice he will instantly urge the instant ces.
sation Of sectional strife and reunion Of
the party on the basis of the policy of the

Mind Reading.

The fcats of mind reading perform
ed by the late Irving Bishop we're
wonderful, and savored agood deal of
the supernatural, though he always
claimed there was nothing mysterious
about it. Johnston, the phenomenal
product of the Northwest, has given
some wonderful exhibitions, though
skeptics have not been wanting who
denounced him as palpable' fraud.
There is another kind of mind read.
ing not so difficult us that attempted
by Bishop and Johnston-to read the
mind Of the public OH a subject of
great interest. During the past five
years "The Burlington" has carried
to all parts of the country thousands
and thousands of the bright people of
the Northwest, and if you ask any
n what he thinks Of that line, you
can, before he speaks read his mind
on that question, by noting how pleas (.

and safety cause his face to light up
and a smile break forth. For in

A Sheep hcaring Machine.

Il. n. Martin, al expert machinist
Of Brainerd, Mimi, is in the city,
with II new strengthening machine.
Mr.. Martin has been at work OH the
apparatus several years and is Of the
opinion that success is reached. A
recent number of the Scientific
American, Il recognized authority on
mechanics, stated that Il practical de-
vice to remove wool from sheep
would make the owner IL wealthy per-
sol. Mr.. Martin thinks he is "the
man Of destiny" lie had one of tho
machines at Dugald's Campbell's last
year and it gave fairly good satisfac-
tion. Profiting by that seasons ex-
perience, it has been improved, and,
SO far as run this year, seems to he
without flaw. Tic machine itself
weighs four pounds and is handled by
one man. The motive power is COM
pressed air, under a pressure Of forty
pounds to the square inch. Mr.. Mar
tin claims that 100 sheep can be han.
died in a day and that in Il flock of
average size the saving in wool of one
clip will pay the expense of it. A
public exhibition of the new inven.
ton will be given in Bismarck in /

afternoon and continued until the
next morning before the work was
completed. The new lodge starts
with twenty-three charter members,
under favorable circumstances and
composed of good men throughout
and the occasion will long be remem-
bered in Pythian circles as an event
marking an epoch in the history of
the order in North Dakota, it being

Missouri river in this Grand Jurisdic-
ton. AT IL O'Clock Il recess was TAX

Episcopal Guild, who fully sustained
their reputation for furnishing all
that could he desired in that line.
After enjoying this repast the knights
returned to their Castle Hall and
completed their labors by eXemplify-
