sw1sHER's QUEER SUIT.
Compelled to Exhibit His RainmaIzinl
Apparatus in Court


LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. Son the long
table in Judge Longs court room yes
terday were the instruments by which
DIR. Swisher brought down his cele-
brated rain last July. There were two
mammoth milk jars, over each Of which
were upturned gigantic tunnels. To
one side was a galvanic battery, small
pair of druggists scales, miscellaneous
collection Of miniature rain spouts,
wash basin, bottles, milk pitchers, etc.,
while on the floor stood 2O0-pound bar
rel of spelter, otherwise known as the
zinc Of commerce. All these awe-in-
spring articles comprised the rainmal1-
ing apparatus, and their presence in
court was due to the fact that j. II. Nc
Murphy, who subscribed $500 to the
rain fund, had declined to pay and was
being sued for that sum. A long, YER
bal war ensued between the attorneys
as to whether the doctor could be com
PEELED to disclose how he operated, and
at last accounts the court had the mat
ter under advisement.
Among the witnesses summoned by
the defendant are three professors of
chemistry, who will diagnose the doc
tors explanation, if the court orders him
to make it, from scientific standpoint.
The case is the first of the kind in
American jurisprudence and is attract
ing great attention because of its nov
city and the points of law involved.

Plague of Crows.

HARRIsBURG, KY, Jan, 12.-On the
farms of Messrs E. P. McFatridge and
Thomas Alexander, two miles from
town. are tens of thousands of crows.
There are so many together that they
are starving. They have killed large
hog and ravenously devoured the flesh.
Sheep that are now dropping their
lambs not only loose their Offspring as
food for the crows, but the. old ewes
that are not strong enough to defend
themselves are also devoUred. Not 4
lamb in this locality will be saved I'M
less this immense collection of crows
can be gotten rid of.

CEREAL CROP OF1892
GOVERNMENT REPORT ON WHEAT,
CORN AND OATS.
work of the Bureau of Animal Industry
PIeuro-Pneumonia and Texas Fever
Eradicated-secretary Rusk's Inter
esting Report.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-The report Of
the agricultural department on the 1882
cereal crop says: The Wheat crop was
above the average in yield. and in volume
exceeded that in 1891, 1884 and 1879,
though the crop of 1859 and 1890 nearly
equaled it. The area is estimated at 3d.
554, 443 acres; product, 5J5, 949, 900 bush
els; value, 1922, iii 1881. In the revision
of the acreage the principal changes
made in of some the states in which there
has been decline during the past
twelve years are heavier than reported.
There has also been considerable enlarge
ment in breadth in the past year IN sew
eral western states, the rate of yield be-
ing 1874 bushels per acre. The average
value per bushel was 62.4 cents, the
lowest average value ever reported.
The corn crop was short and has been
exceeded in quantity seven times IN the
last ten years. Its average yield per
acre was 23.1 bushels. Its area was
considerably reduced, the reduction be-
ing heavy in corn producing regions,
though offset in part by the increase in
the Atlantic states and throughout the
entire cotton belt. In the valleys of the
Ohio and Missouri planting was retarded
and limited greatly by heavy rains,
which prevented planting. The breadth
as estimted is 7O,2R6, 658 acres; produc-
ton, l 1928, 464 900 bushels; value, $685.
146, $50, averaging 39.3 cents per bushel.
The estimates on oats are 81, U63, $50
acres; product, 66l ,0*5,00 bushels;
value, $20y, 1858, 611; yield per acre, 24.4
bushels

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1I.-Benjamin F,
Butler, lawyer, statesman, politicians
and millionaire manufacturer, died at
his Washington residence, 22O New Jer-
sey avenue, southeast, at thirty minutes
past o'clock this morning.
His death created an immense surprise,
as it was not even known that he was
ailing any more than any man who had
lived and labored so long would. The
announcement this morning that he had
died at / 80 from failure of the heart
created more than little surprise, and
ct that hour of night the details of his
taking off were more than meager.
Benjamin Franklin Butler figured in
more characters than any other public
man of this age. There have been sew
eral ADLER generals, many more promi-
aent statesmen, as many more eloquent
attorneys, though very few as success
full and perhaps few as adroit poll
ticians. But no other man played so
many parts as well, from the place of
small lawyer to that of proconsul in a
captured city in the most delicate era
and difficult situation of the civil war.

Removed the Boards.

WICHITA, Kan, Jan. 6.-For the first
time in fouryears the police force in cities
of the first class in Kansas are under the
control of the respective mayors and city
councils, Governor Humphrey having
removed the several boards of police
commissioners. The police commission
system which placed the police govern
ment in the hands of commissioners
appointed by the governor has caused no
end of trouble since its inception, it hav-
ing been used purely in the interest of
the enforcement of the prohibitory law.
IL is question whether the
new fusion administration will rein
state the system. Both the Populists
and Democrats inveiged bitterly against
it while Republicans had control, but
since the election they seemed 10th to
give up the offices and the influence
which control of the police has in cam

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-The interstate
commerce commission has, in an opinion
by Commissioner McDiIl, announced its
decision of the case of the Minneapolis
Chamber of Commerce against the
Great Northern Railway company and
others, involving rates on wheat from
North and South DBkoJa to points in
Minnesota. The commission decides
that crates on wheat from points in
North and South Dakota to Minneapolis
as compared with the rates charged
over considerably greater distances.

iacent Lake Superior points, subject
Minneapolis millers to undue and I'M
reasonable prejudice and disadvantage.
The defendants are ordered to adjust
their rates on wheat from said points to
Minneapolis and Duluth upon the basis
of distances over the nearest practical
routes"

Natural Gas in Kansas.

CHERRYvALE, Kan, Jan. 5.-Ctizens
of this place are greatly excited over a
strike of gas here on Tuesday evening.
At 8 o'clock a fine flow of gas was
struck in well No. 10 and on a match
being applied to it t1ssfames reached to
height of many feet and burned
strong and steadily. Persons familiar
with the gas wells of Ohio and Indiana
say that the gas at Cherryvale is plenti-
full and just as good for all purposes.

Bureau of Animal Industry.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.-According to
the report of Secretary Rusk on the op-
erations of the bureau of animal indus
try for the year 1898, laid before the
senate the work of stamping out pleuro-
pneumonia has been carried on as rap
idly as possible under the prevailing
conditions of the country and the dis
ease has completely disappeared. ''The
scope of this branch of the work of the
bureau has therefore been completed"
Secretary Rusk adds. ''And this dan
gerous and much dreaded disease has
been eradicated from our soil and the
United States is the first of the large ma
lions of the world which, having been
once extensively affected, has been able
to completely extirpate it. The time re-
guired was only about five years, and
the total expenditure little in excess Of
81 500, 900.
1.-The regulations for preventing the
dissemination of Texas fever have not
hindered the shipment of cattle from
the infected districts to the markets for
slaughter, nor have they deprecated the
large outbreaks of the disease which
have been the rule in former seasons,
have not occurred, and with the eXcep-
ton of an outbreak in western Texas
and in Lyons and adjoining counties IN
Kansas, none have been reported
1t is shown that one of the main
causes of the appearance of the fever
among export cattle is the shipment of
animals in cars which had not been dis
infected, and the prevention Of the dis
ease, the secretary says, will not be
absolute until congress enacts some leg
islation that will compel railroads to
comply with the regulations for clean
ing and disinfectiug cars. During 1892
there were reported 131 head of cattle in
the export trade affected with this dis
ease, as compared with 524 during 1891.
Animals imported from Canada are
inspected owing to the prevalence of
foot and mouth diseases and pleuro-
pneumonia in Europe, and the constant
importation of animals from Europe in
to Canada. There is no authority to in
spect imported horses, but as these an
imals are liable to be effected by conta-
gious diseases, the secretary says that
some provision should be made for the
inspection of these animals.
The work of meat inspection has more
than justified the hopes of its promoters
and fully warrants the comparatively
small expense incurred by the govern
ment for its maintenance, says the sec
rotary on this subject. The total cost
of this bureau for the year has been
