4 JUDGES STRANGE EXPERIENCE
Judge Mclaughlin was aroused on
last Thursday night by the sound OF
something gnawing beneath his WIN
dow. He looked out and Recognized u
i and thinking he had driven it away
went to bed. The gnawing sound con-
tinued, however, and the next morning
il was found that two of the wooden
.Iats Of the gate about ? by : inches in
size had been gnawcd off some distance
above the ground. The gnawed parts
had blood spots upon them aud several
teeth, apparently those of a dog were wei
found sticking in the WOOD: Inc
most plausible explanation OF it is thct
it was a dog with loose teeth whi' h
mained him and which made use of tn
method to get rid OF them.-Rock6ridge

An Outbreak of Far Reaching He.
suits Predicted Soon.
CHICAGO, Feb. 9.-Miss G. F. Sickles
has returned from her journey in the
Indian Territory, where she went al
the representative of the council of ad.
ministration of the worlds fair, to visit
the peaceable tribes and awaken among
them an interest in the worlds fair.
She says all the Indians are anxious to
come to the fair and make an exhibit
which viii show their desire for prog
ress. Speaking of the Pine Ridge
trouble Miss Sickles said:
Let me tell you that despite the telegraphic
reports to the contrary the event of few days
ago is only the prelude to an outbreak which
will have far reaching results The warriors
of the Ridge are stealthily and systematically
organizing under such men as Red Cloud, who
while keeping their persons far from the act.
ual scene of action, are stirring up the feeling
of their followers with a view to bringing
about bloodshed. AS matter of fact the dis
affection which resulted in the rebellion OF TIVE
years ago has never been checked. II is sim.
ply suppressed for the time and is sure to burs,
forth again with added force. The ghost songs
are again being sung as a means of organiza-
tion, and in every camp is apparent the hostile
spirit which showed itself two years ago

A Proposition by the United States
Said to Have Been Made.
New YORK, Feb. 9.-The Heralds
cable dispatch from Panama says:
La Crpnista (newspaper) prints the
following in relation to the canal uues-
ton: 1T is understood in semi-official
circles here that a proposition has been
made by the United States under which
the Panama canal is to be completed"
The paper adds that the United States
proposes that the work of completing
the canal should be continued as Col
ombia national enterprise. but the cap
ital to be used will be furnished by the
United States, and the canal is to be
under American protection.
These views are not shared by the
Panama, Star and Herald, local organ
of the Liquidator Canal company, which
announces that the Colombian minister
has assured President Carnot, of France,
that Monchicourt's representative in
Colombia viii be granted the concession
in spite of outside protests"

Secretary Thompson has been positively
forbidden by his physician to leave his
room. He was last outside the house
two weeks ago, when he tainted in his
carriage and was brought home in an
apparently dying condition. DR.. Young

will almost certainly prove fatal. Under
these conditions it is absolutely out OF

President.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 9.--Large crowds
were drawn to the Capitol by the merely
formal ceremonies incident to the off,
cial counting of the electoral vote. 1t
was an undress rehearsal of inaugural
ton.
The actual ceremonies were nearly the
same as four years ago, with slight
difference in personnel. There was the
ceremonious opening of the safe in the
vice presidents room and the taking out
of the sixty-eight sealed packages sup
posed to represent the votes of the forty
four states as received in duplicate by
mail and messenger; there was the
solemn procession in Goose Step" Of
old Captain Bassett, who has partici-
rpated in every presidential count of
more than fifty years. escorted by a
squad of capital police to prevent raid
being made upon the precious locked
boxes containing the votes.
The boxes having been safely depos-
tied in the house, the senate in body
followed shortly before o'clock. The
vice president ascended the speakers
platform and took his seat at the right
hand of Speaker Crisp, the senator's
ranging themselves in the places as
signed to them on the right of the hall,
and the speaker sitting at the left hand
of the vice president, and in this man.
ner the court proceeded in the presence
of densely packed galleries and crowded
door.
After the last certificate had been
read and the results footed up. the vice
president made the customary announce
ment that under, the law this was a suf-
ficient declaration that Grover Cleve-
land of the state of New York was
elected president of the United States
and that A. Z. Stevenson was elected
vice president, each for the term be-
ginning March 4, 1893, and that this
result would be entered together with a
list of the votes, on the journals of the
senate and house of representatives.
The joint session was then declared
dissolved, the senate withdrew and each
house resumed business in its own
chamber.
