City of Guatemala that an army which
is receiving constant accessions from
the country through which it is march

purpose of intercepting the march Of
the revolutionists on the capital. Great
uncasiness has been occasioned by the

invasion it can not be ascertained as a
strict silence is maintained by the Sal

GAMBLING IN GRAIN.

Dealing in Futures When Delivery n Not
Intended Held to lie Illegal Transao-
tlons.
The supreme court of Minnesota Fri
day morning handed down the decision
in the case of Oscar Mohr ct al VS.. An
ton Miesen, appellant. The appellants,
who are brokers in the Milwaukee
chamber of com mere, sued the defend
ant, Miesen, for money expended in the
purchase and sale of grain. The an
swer set up that the purchases and sales
were not actual purchases or
sales of grain, but were merely
colorado, and were gambling
transactions, where the plaintiff in
form undertook to buy and sell on the
Chicago and Milwaukee boards of
trade, ostensibly for future deliveries,
but without any intention or expecta-
ton on the part of either party that the
same would be actually delivered, large
quantities of wheat and barley, with
the intention on the part of both par
ties wagering on the market price.
The lower court held that the
contract was valid. The supreme
court reverses the decision and holds in
the syllabus that contracts for the sale
and delivery of grain or other commo-
dities to be delivered at future day
are not per Sc unlawful when the parties
in good faith intend to perform them
according to their terms; but contracts
in form for future delivery not intended
as actual transactions, but merely to pay
and receive the difference between the
agreed price and the market price at a
future day, are in the nature of wager
on the future price, and void.

A TERRIBLE STORY.

Exilcd to Siberia For Giving n Birthday
Party for soma Daughters Honor
the Price of Liberty.
Benz. SintzlSi, his wife and his son
Moses, arrived in Boston Friday on the
Warren steamer Kansas. The family
gave party May 2S in their home, at
Trabe, Russia, in honor of the thir-
teenth birthday of Moses, who, under
Jewish customs, had reached mans S
estate. Private parties being contrary
to Russian laws, the local police de-
manded "a large sum of hush money,
which Sintzki could not give. The fam
lily, without trial, were started for Siber-
ia. On the way the officer in command
of the guard made a proposal to Sintz-
ki's daughter, agreeing to release the
whole family if she would submit. She
was willing to sacrifice herself, but her
father forbade her doing so. To make
the father yield the girl was strung up
by the arms, and the pain and fright
caused her death. A section of Nihi-
lists heard of this outrage, succeeded
in drugging the soldiers and executed
the captain. The captives were res
cued and were assisted across the Rus
sian frontier. They were put aboard a
vessel bound to Hull, Eng from whence
they came to America.

MILK FOR CHEESE.
A Few Words of Advice From n Practical
Dairyman.

A Few Words of Advice From Practical
Dairyman.
AS a cheese maker | am free to con-
fess, | cannot produce good, perfect
cheese from poor milk. l hear an nm
initiated one say, "why, who would
expect any one to do that"
Let me whisper, however, that there
exists in the minds of many so-called
cheese makers the belief that it can be
DONE and that they possess the faculty
to do it. o, how l deplore such ignor-
ant egotism, while l look beyond the
cause, and pity the poor consumer who
has to grapple with the effect. This
may reach the eye of some dairyman
who is a patron of a cheese factory,
and if so l want him to give ear to what
have to say.
Mr.. Dairyman, as great responsible
ity rests upon you as does upon the
manufacturer, and want you to appre-
ciate your position as Il food commits
sioner to your fellow man. Milk should
be aerated in some way Immediately
after being drawn from the cow as
aeration purges it from animal odors
as no other treatment will do. The
if they would remain the same as when
born with milk, simply tending to the
product ''cowy flavor" but the trouble
is they are a dangerous gern-life,
which fostercd by a retention of the
animal heat, develop into poisonous
form of taint.
The average dairyman can not be eX-
pcctcd to give milk for cheese making
perfect care until he thoroughly appre-
ciates the fact that extra care of the
product means extra money in payment.
A few years ago 1t was thought in
manufacturing circles that chilling the
milk was all that was needed to keep it
through hot nights for cheese making.
The writer was an apprentice in a
cheese factory in the seventies, and |
can distinctly remember the frequency
of floating and tainted curds then prev
alent. Makers then understood the inn
portance of souring gassy curds, but
they did not appreciate the necessity of
ridding them of their foul odOr by
| thorough exposure to the pure air of
heaven. 1t was the same way with
milk, and what was not comprehended
by the makers as regards curd, was
also not understood by dairymen in the
care of their milk. But the most of us
know better now, and let us be true to
our knowledge and convictions. The
cheese instructors of tt - Empire State
trace the cause of many makers bad
luck" to the neglect of his careless
patrons.
At different times, as cheese maker.
! have had conside rable trouble with
bad milk, but always make it prac-
tice of giving each lot as it is taken in
an olfactory test and if it smells little
''off" / so inform the patron. If a
batch of milk Is so bad that it will in
jure the common lot, of course refuse
to accept it Following this course, and
daily enjoining upon the patrons the
imperative necessity of giving their
milk thorough aeration, l encounter
no serious obstacle in the way of pro-
ducing fine, full-cream cheese. &c orge

PECULIAR AFFLICTION.


A Brooklyn Woman Unconscious and
Rigid for Five Days and Nights.
Mrs. Butcher, of No. 225 Sandford
street Brooklyn, is the victim of
most peculiar case of mental disorder,
said by physicians to have been directly
attributable to the grip which proved
an epidemic in that city. Her malady
is characterized as ecstasis. For five
days and five nights Mrs. Butcher slept,
unconscious of anything that was going
on around her; unconscious of touch
even, and without food or drink. She
was as rigid as if dead. At one time
she was lifted out of bed and stood up
in corner of her room. Her pulse
seemed to have ceased to heat and res
piration was not notice able. Her
hands were on her shoulders in sort
of convulsive grasp. The combined
strength of three men could not remove
them. Neither could her legs be bent.
In fact, she was like marble statue,
except there was glow upon her flesh
which evidenced the fact that life was
not yet extinct When she awakened
from her five days sleep her mind was
clear, her eyes were bright, and she APP
peared and acted like woman in the
enjoyment of robust health She had
no recollection of any thing that had
taken place. She said she had had a
delightful nights sleep and felt very
much refreshed.
