insane.

A melancholy and pitiable case of ill.,
sanity was discovered in this CITY on
Thursday night last. Or the incoming
night train was young man who had
purchased ticket at Buffalo, N. D., for
Sank Centre. He attracted attention on
the car by his Notwithstanding to
sit down or to say word. When the
train arrived here he refused to leave the
car, and Officer Wilcox was called in to
assist in ejecting him. Once out of the
car and in the omnibus, he refused to
leave it, and he was taken to the city
lookup, where he was, with difficulty,
locked up for the night. A letter upon
his person addressed to Mrs. Kraft, of
Long Prairie, threw little light upon
his identity, and telegram was sent her
asking for information. Not hearing
anything from her on Friday, and lie
having quoted down, it was thought
best to discharge him. He was released,
but no sooner outside than unmistaks-
BILE evidences of insanity reappeared.
Upon the cell floor was found scattered
about sum of money-about $500,
and Judge Barto thought he ought to be
rearrested. Meantime he had started
up the track toward Long Prairie, bare
headed. He was overtaken by the officer
and several citizens, and after hot pur-
suit and sharp encounter, he was
brought back and locked up. The mex
morning his sister from Long Prairie
came down and identified him, although
he refused, or failed, to recognize her.
His name is Charles Luesner, German,
industrious and heretofore perfectly quiet
and sane. He had been accustomed to
spend the winter with his sister and
family in Long Prairie, going to Dakota
for work during the summer. He ha
returned much earlier than usual, doubt
less impelled by mental arrangement.
He was violent, it requiring half dozen
persons to handle him. He was taken
to st. Cloud on Monday by Officers Will
cox and Murphy and committed to st.
Peter, where he was taken by the officers
on Tuesday. IN the absence of Judge
Bruener, Court Commission William
Boulton went down to St.. Cloud and
held the investigation into his condition.

related numerous experiences of his own
which tended to show very co%nvincingly
that these blistering zephyrs arise not
very far from tho areas which are affected
tacrcby-that they are produced by the
beating of the sun upon the dry prairie,
unbroken by stream or lake, by which
operation every particle of moisture is
driven out of the atmosphere, and the
thirsty wind goes over adjacent areas
sucking up the juices of the plants and
%blighting crops. The presence of water
areas in the vicinity or OF sufficient moist
ure i'll the soil would prevent this accord
ing to Maj. Cot1in's view.
No damage from hot dry winds need be
feared for this season. Thu soil has been
SO thoroughly soaked-and, indeed. the
sand prairics of Nebraska and the whole
southwestern region as well-that it will
be impossible for the atmosphere to get
thirsty enough to drink the life-blood of
the growing grain. The condition of the
crops everywhere, and the amount of
moisture which has fallen, leave no ques-
ton in the mind of anybody as to the out
come if these hot winds are escaped-and
the hot wiuds cannot come. The state is
us certain Of rcapiny a tremendous harvest
as if the crop was already ut the granary,
barring the isolated damage which may be
done by hail or similar disasters which at
the most can affect only comparatively
small areas.
