CHARLES GETS 90 DAYS.
Co. Attorney Madigan Makes the
Crime a Petty Offense.

Will Charles, who was arrested for
assault in the second degree on Henry
Junger, was given ninety DAYS in the
Brown county Jail, by Police Judge
French last Tuesday afternoon, and
was taken to that resort by Sheriff
Blethen yesterday. Charles got off
lucky.
1t appears that Junger is improving
and is now able to get out. Only two
ribs we're broken; and the blood issu-
ing from his throat was the result of
asthma. The preliminary examina-
ton was set for Tuesday afternoon,
With the above result. Judge Bald
win, of Baldwin, Mcleod & Fowler,
represented the prisoner, and at his
request the charge was changed from
assault in the second to the third de-
gree, and the police magistrate gave
him the extreme sentence.
Charles attempted to break away
from Deputy Sheriff Cooper last Fri
day morning. but that official caught
him in the Redwood river below the
falls, after he fired several shots, and
got out a large number of citizens.

THE SCHOOL ATTENDANCE.

School opened last Monday with
about $50 pupils. All of the teachers
we're present, and the day was spent
in grading the different pupils, and
preparing for the fall studies. 1t is
expected that the attendance will
reach 400 before another week.
The board is experiencing some diff
ficulty over school books, no arrange
ments having been made to supply
the pupils during the vacation, and
Mr.. Winter, who has heretofore kept
the books, but who closed out his
stock, when the free text book law
passed, refusing to purchase more. As
a result number of pupils are with
out books, and will remain so until
the board orders supply.

oath to affirm his statement. McGin-
mis- walked into Welter's saloon, fol-
lowed by the marshal, who had over
heard what McGinnis said to his faith
or, Robidou pere. The marshal at
tempted to arrest McGinnis and the
latter resisted. Robidou pulled his
club and struck McGinnis over the
head, knocking him down. Facts are
doubtful from this on. Three persons
present at the time of the trouble say
that Robidou struck McGinnis four
more times with his club, saying that
he owed the - one.
Robidoux denies this. Following Nc
Ginnis was picked up unconscious
and taken to the lookup. At four
o'clock in the afternoon he seemed
we'll enough to stand trial. He had
his case continued and drove home. A
dazed feeling was in his head and con-
tinued to grow stronger until Thurs
day when he drove to Springfield to
see doctor. The latter was puzzled,
sent McGinnis home and called on
him on Friday, in the meantime wir-
ing DR.. Finn, of this city, to meet him
in consultation. The latter pronounced
the case as one of paralysis of the
brain, and both pronounced recovery
as doubtful.
Saturday McGinnis' condition con-
tinued worse. On Sunday, according
to our Morgan correspondent, he rest
ed easier, but was in a very poor con-
dition, and there was no hope of him
getting we'll. Monday evening the
priest, Fir. Vonderlage, was calico, and
the customary Catholic rites we're per-
formed.
Our Morgan correspondent wired
us Tuesday evening that McGinnis'
death was expected at any moment,
he being unconscious at that time, and
calling for revenge on the marshal.
AS yet nothing has been done by the
proper officials toward securing facts
and taking the proper steps in the
matter.

A FLOWERS TALE.

What is considered rare treat was
enjoyed by few people at the home
OF Mr.. and Mrs. B. Dripps, of Fifth
street, last Sunday night. Mrs. Dripps
has night blooming cereus,t that COM
menced to blossom for the second time
in its existence of nine years, last Sun
day evening about seven o'clock, and
the neighbors were notified. The
night blooming cereus (cereus grant,
forus) is native of South America,
bears large beautiful and fragrant
flowers, which, however, expand and
fade in the course of one night, last
ing but few hours. This plant con-
tanned but one dower,the bud opening
slowly from seven to twelve o'clock,
and as it opened the fancied resem-
blance of the various parts of the
flower to the means of our Lords pas
sion and death came to light. There
we're the nails, the crown of thorns, the
five wounds, the disciples, and even
the hammer and the cross itself be-
came visible as the blossom reached
it's most beautiful stage, and the story
of the Crucifxion was retold by this
wonderful flower of nature. At mid
night the blossom was detected in
commencing to close. A glass bowl
filed with alcohol was ready to receive
it, and as soon as the knife severed
the blossom from it's stem, it was placed
in the bowel, made air tight, and is
now on exhibition at The GAZETTE
office.
Rev. J. Sinclair, who watched with
a number of others, the blooming of
the flower, has intimated that he means
to discourse on the same on Sunday
forenoon, when he will have on exhi-
bition for illustration, the plant itself,
and the flower in it's state of preserva-
ton.

Ormal Waite Mcmillan is Redwood
Falls boy, exclusively, nearly the whole
period of existence having been spent
in and around this city. He was born
in Union, Houston county, Mimi, in
1865, Of sturdy Scotch parents, and
when but three months old came with
them to Redwood Falls, where his
father embarked IN the hotel business,
and later in the mercantile business,
which constantly grew in proportions.
Ormal was sent to school at the early
age of five years, and always created
a wonder among his fellow pupils why
he escaped the birch when it was ap-
piled to them. He learned easily land
in the early part of 1876 was so far adj
yanced as to allow him to accept po-
sition in the Bank of Redwood Falls,
then controlled, as it is now, by Hon.
VIZ. Dickinson. Spending six months
in that institution, with equal credit to
himself and the bank, he Joined his
mother in a four months tour through
the east, and visiting the Centennial,
giving his mind an excellent cause for
expansion, and instilling ideas into
the young man that are proving valu-
able hints in his present business
years. Returning to Redwood Falls
he went to school until 1879, taking
up, among his other studies, a course
in bookkeeping. From that time on
until 1886, he was employed as assist
ant miller in the Delhi Roller Mills,
then partly owned by his father, the
late James Mcmillan. He then took
course in Hamline University, but
after three months there concluded
that the education he desired could be
obtained in business college, and
the next two winters he spent at the
Northwestern College of Commerce,
Minneapolis, where be obtained an ex-
ceptionally fine commercial education,
fitting himself with remarkable de-
gree of accuracy for the banking bust
ness. Shortly after the Citizens Bank
was organized, he entered that insti-
tuition as assistant cashier, and re
NAMED there in that capacity until
1890, when he assumed complete con-
troll of the Delhi Roller Mills, which
institution be has conducted ever
since.
While attending school in Mime
apolis, chance threw him into an
acquaintanceship with Miss Evelyn
Derwent, highly cultured and prom
inent society lady of Minneapolis. who
was attending the same business col
lege as Mr.. Mcmillan. It was the old
story and it couldn't be helped. In
the beautiful fall of 1890 the two be-
came one, and promising stage star
became Mrs. 0. w. Mcmillan.
Mr.. Mcmillan is always full of en-
terprise, ever willing to take hand
in anything that will promote the
welfare of the city. He is continually
making improvements in the Delhi
Mills, and has just finished placing in
new boiler and engine house, and it
is his intention to run the mill here
after "a hours per day, Minneapolis
commission houses promising to take
all that he can manufacture, coupling
the promise with the statement that
the Delhi -four is as good, and in many
cases, better than that Manufactured
by the Minneapolis mills.

1t is apparent that Prime Minister Glad
stone is not reaching out TO find occasiou
to help The restoration of silver t. its old
status as money. When a Liberal member
Of the House Of Commons suggested that
bill introduced into the American Senate
providing for the free coinage of silver at
the ratio of "a to 1 afforded an opportun-
ity for an understanding, Mr.. Gladstone
replied that this bill did not in any wav
represent the views of the United States
Government. OF cnurse. Mr.. Gladstone
was right. A mere bill does OF represent
a Government. Ii is simply an expression
of a luhlic opinion that may or may not
be widely entertained. But a Minister
who was friendly to the restoration of
silver would have given the new bill a
friendly recognition, as if to say that
when it had gone through the successive
stages of law-making 1t would receive
consideration.
