one Will Probably Be Erected in
Minneapolis Soon.
There is movement on foot to erect
monument in Minneapolis to Left
Erickson. the famous Morse navigator
and explorer who preceded Columbus
in the discovery of America by 492
years. A meeting of the prominent
NorwegIaDS of Minneapolis was held at
the West hotel last evening to consider
the project. The matter was discussed
in ali its aspects and met nothing but
favor. While the Norsemen expect to
take the advanced position in this I'M
dertaking, they desire it understood
that it is an American project, purely
Norse-American undertaking as it were.
They desire to commemorate Erickson's
discovery Of this continent as an epoch
in American history. There are already
two such monuments in America, one
in Boston ahd one in Milwaukee.
The outcome of the discussion last
evening was the appointment of COM
mittee to draft constitution and by
laws for a monument association, to be
called. probably, the Left Erickson
Monument association. This commit
tee consists of Rev. N. F. Gjertsen,
Charles Kttelson, Olaf Hoff, Prof.
Peter Clausen and Nicolay GrevStad.
The committee will report at a meeting
to be called two weeks hence.

Presbyterian assembly at Detroit. OF
Prof. Briggs, the heterodox. he says:
''He is not only good man but an able one
in his line. His great failing is that he can
not say what he means. He has a faculty of
expressing his thoughts in such a way that it
frightens the conservatives and gives the
radicals too much opportunity to miscon-
strue his remarks. His friends have hard
work to keep him in line all along They
hate to lose him at Princeton, SO he may

unshaven jurymen filed into the crlmi-

remained the same, six for ac-
quittal and six for conviction.
The jury was out Just ninety-two
hours, nearly four days, and each one
remained firm to his first conviction.
County Attorney Thain does not pro-
pose to allow the case to rest where it is,
but will have third trial, which will
be commenced either next Monday or
two weeks later. Those for acquittal
were G. E. Wingate. Miles Smith, j. NJ

He Was Sorry He Spoke.

ST Louis Republic.
A certain well-known German physician, of
the South Side, was the victim of his own
''previousness" the other day. He had sue
cessfully treated wealthy LADY, daughter for
diphtheria, and the lady was extremely CRATE
full for it. When the child was thoroughly
well mother and daughter appeared at the ply
sician's Office. The little girl shyly handed
the physician neat little knit purse, while the
lady went on to say: "For having saved my
child, doctor, want to present you with this
purse"
"But," said the physician, after an embar-
RAISING pause, ~ have sent you bill for
$3OO.'S
The lacy flushed, then said quietly: ''Let
me have the purse, please.'
She took two 500 bills out of 1t and re-
turned 1t to him with the remark: "There are
$500 in there now, so your bill is paid," and
left the room.
Now the doctor is cursing his clumsy tongue
for the bad break it made That little speech
cost him just 5000.

POWER OF THE MODERN RIFLE
Tt is Deadly Affair at Long Range in

III is a Oeauly AHa1r at Long Range In

Frederic Remington in Harpers Weekly.
In the camps in the Sioux country last win
ter was talking to the best shot in the United
States Army, and we saw horseman far
away. He was speck. l asked him if he
could hit him. He replied: 81 could kill him
sure if he would not run until got his range,
and if l waited until he came within known
range, could be sure of him." 1t was per-
fectly startling. | was once riding with a
little troop of cavalry and the officer and
were talking about shooting.
To elucidate an idea he turned and suddenly
dismounted three men, telling them to fire
five rounds apiece at black object across the
canyon, and to do it quickly. The men
dropped on the ground and poured fifteen
shots into the rock or stump, whatever it was,
at an unknown distance, and they hit 1t over
and over again. l think it was about 700
yards, and we could see the bullets strike in
the sand.
The frightful possibilities of a modern rife
in the hands of experts are not too well un-
derstood. Add to that the thin mist of the
smokeless powder and the ceaseless crash of
the magazine, and then think twice about
your battalion drills.

AUSTRALIANS GREATEST PEST.
How Rabbits are Killed by the Thousands
in n Simple Manner

How Rabbits are Killed by the Thousands
in Simple Manner.
San Francisco Examiner.
Australians are rejoicing now because new
and most successful method of hunting rab-
bits is fast running out the troublesome little
animals that infest the colonies.
'The Victorian Government" says Mr.. John
Murray, of Melbourne, twas so much con-
cerned about the plague of rabbits that an in
spector was appointed under an act called the
vermin destruction act, and great efforts were
made by him to find some method of extermin-
alton.
"Afuch pains were taken to advertise the
matter, and as a result, suggestions were re-
ceived from all over the world. The particu-
lar one which has proved such godsend to the
country came from Bengal, If my recollection
serves me right. 1t was tried first by the in
spector and the information was then sent
out in pamphlets, and now all over Australia
the rabbits are being hunted In the same way.
1.-The rabbit hunters gather to the number
Of eight. One carries a bull's-eye lantern and
another big bunch of small iron rings, each
fastened to a string so that thev will jingle to-
gether. The Others carry clubs or air-guns-
usually air-guns The party goes very quietly
to the haunts of the rabbits, aiming to get
there between and o'clock In the evening.
Inc men WIN lanterns anu rings cnOOSe an
open place and the ones with the clubs get in
the shelter, forming circle about 90 yards in
diameter about the two. The fellow with the
rings set up jngling and the lantern is
moved rapidly around the circle. This charms
the rabbits and they come from all directions
toward the light just like moths rush to
candle. They can be clubbed to death at
leisure for the lantern and the ringing sound
seem to stupefy them.
at all seems simple enough, and yet have
known six men to kill thousands of rabbits in
two hours. l went into the bush to my uncle's
range last April to attend hunt. There were
ten of us, and we chose an open space just at
the edge of grove Of gum trees. had the
rings, and no sooner began rattling them than
the rabbits broke cover and came jumping to
their death by hundreds.
81 never saw more singular sight in my
life. 1t appeared as if some mystic power
impelled the animals to leave their places of
safety and rush to the bright light. They
were crazy without doubt, for some of them
would jump on me as l kept the rings sound
ing.
ssThe work of the slaughterers with the
clubs seemed to have no deterring effect.
Other rabbits would leap over the dead bodies
to reach the light. and would stay there until
killed. When no more of the creatures came
we counted up and found more than 800 dead
rabbits. We dug trench twelve feet long,
ten feet wide, and ten feet deep to bury them
in. That part of the work took all the rest of
the night, but the killing was done in an hour"

these years he had never again seen the re-

He found him in the old retail shop. doing
