J There is u peculiar turn in the
troubles in school district No 35,
Randall, and all the members OF the
members Of the board are now in
trouble. A. d. Robbins swore out a
warrant for Chas. Rogers arrest,
in recent issues. When
Rogers returned in the sheriff's care
she did not deny that the money had
been ased without authority, but he
claimed that the other members Of
the board, A. y. Robbins and VIM.
Mum, had been parties to the fraud,
and that the funds had been equally
divided between the three-Who had.
been school officers for some time.
He thereupon swore out warrants
for Robbins and Num-, and the
former was brought from his home
yesterday and the sheriff is now after
Mum in Wright county. Rogers
claims that a short time ago he was
prepared to return the funds he
had taken, but that the others re-
fused to do so. He being the treas
urer was responsible for the en-
tire amount, and it was his COM
panions in the deal who caused his
arrest. His reports were regularly
approved, to cover up the shortage,
and no bond was required of him.
Rogers and Robbins are both in Jail
now, under $1,000 bonds, and their
preliminary hearing is set for 2
O'Clock Monday afternoon. j. H.
Rhodes is attorney for Rogers, and
A. P. Blanchard for Robbins.

FOR $4,000.
a Libel Suit by Joseph Hennen
vs.. the Transcript Pub1ish=
ing Co. for that Amount.

We are indebted to Sheriff HOude
for a pleasant call today, and he left
a little mementO in the way Of a
summons and complaint in the action
of Joseph Hennen VS.. the Transcript
Publishing Co. for $4,000 for publish
ing statements about him that
were "wholly false, untrue, defama-
tory and libelous, and for the pur-
pose of injuring, maligning and de-
flaming this plaintiff and his good
name among and with the people
and public OF said city and said
county.
When 10 first served notice that
our "Needs A Cat'' article was false
we retracted the damaging state
ment, and announced in these
columns in leach and every issue O.
said paper OF said date" that he did
not need a cat. We had sup
posed that the "amende honor
able' was satisfactory, and it
seems that it was within $4,000 of
being so. Ii saying he didn't need
one cat only left $4,000 coming to
him, we presume that if we had said
he didn't need two cats it would
leaye a balance of only $2500. If we
knew just the number of cats he
doesn't need, we would say so, and
square the bill.

CHICAGO, u 1, Aug. %. 1893.

z.sss CHICAGO, III {, Aug. g, 1898.
Mr.. EDITOR: s 4.
I was around looking through
some OF the state buildings on Mon
day.. The first ! looked at was. the
state building of washington. They
brought down some Of their yellow
frs for a foundation. They are laid
in five tiers. One Of the ground logs
has a note on SAYING thatsitsis foot
3H and 125 feet long, not. Il. very
smallsstick. The tree from which it
was made was 346 feet in height and
one piece of solid steneS coal that
weighed 50, $50 pounds was also ex-
hibited. The state made "a good
showing throughout. 5 r.=s,- .=:ssT
Colorado. laid herself oat pretty
well in rocks and minerals, not much
else. California had big layout,
their dates, palms, bananas and
cactus show off nicely. Their larg-
est palm 1 judge to be Is inches in
diameter, 25 feet high, said to be
planted 125 years ago by a mission
ary. Some of the cactus are q good
foot through and about Is feet high,
they have a large variety OF them.
They had dent corn, the stocks being
at least 1S tt. long and it would take a
tall man to pick it. They had a
horse and rider put up entirely of
prunes. The state can be proud of
her showing.
On the 22nd first went into the
Kansas building. Old John Browns
portrait occupies the place OF honor
on the walls. They had many
others, but none of them of national
fame like that OF the old martyr to
the cause of human liberty. l next
went into the Michigan building. l
noticed among the portraits Gener-
ais Cass and Custer. They had a
big layout of stuffed animals and
birds.
Wisconsin's main exhibits were up
stairs. took it. for granted that
they were good and did not climb up
to see them. I then strolled into the
national exhibits of natural history.
1t is a large building we'll stocked
with everything that is ancient.
You find them of all conceivable
sizes and shapes. From the NAM
moth, which from a part of the bones
found has been reproduced entirely.
It is Is feet high and 20 feet long,
to minute insects. I will not at
tempt description of them, but to
me it is very interesting to look them
over. I ended this day by taking a
ride on the big wheel that carries
you up 250 feet. It is well patronized
there being generally about 25O
people on it. I think it can easily
carry 500. The air was so full OF
smoke that the height afforded but

Spoiled the Boy and Didn't
Help the Dog.

Royalton Banner: Jay Hunter
was accidently shot last Monday
while he and Wayne Pauly were out
in field training q chicken dog be-
longing to I. w. BOuck. The dog is
afraid OF the report of q gun and the
boys were attempting to break him
OF his shyness. Jay had a rope tied
to the dog and was handling him
with it, while Pauly was a few rods
behind with gun which he dis
charged now and then. In some
way the gun went off accidently
while it was pointed in the direction
OF Jay and the dog, a portion of the
charge OF fine shot taking effect in
the boys right side and arm. DR..
LOnsdale was at once summoned.
The shot had penetrated to such
depth that they could not be ex-
tracted without much pain to the
patient and the doctor decided to let
them remain. He does not look for
any bad results and thinks the boy
will come out all right. The expert
ment produced different result than
that intended; the dog is as gun shy
as usual, the boy more so.

OUTCLHSSE ED
Megquier no Matchfo for Sheehy
in the Ring-Hn .Hcci-
dent Ends it. :
Megquier Downed Twice and
Pute his Ankle out of
Joint IN One Round.

The fight between Joe. Sheehy, of
Duluth, and Win. Megquicr, at the
Opera House last evening was short
and decisive, and there were no evil
dences of a hippodrome. Sheehy
was mad, and didn't propose to
waste much time for the small money
there was in it. The inen, appeared
in the ring & little before 10 O'Clock,
with McElroy behind Megquier and
Trembly and Goetz behind Sheehy.
Harry Comstock, the, wrestler, was
referee. When the men approached
each other for the first round both
looked in good condition, but Sheehy
had certainly not trained himself
down for any hard contest. He car
ried considerable more flesh than
necessary. He carried himself very
lightly on the stage. Megquier
looked rather tall for his business
when stripped. The beginning was
very cautious by both men, Sheehy
apparently avoiding his opponent.
Megquier finally made a wild pass
and quick as lightning Sheeby's left
landed ON Megquier's neck and sent
him in a bunch on the floor Shelby
stood over his man making savage
passes around his head, and Meg
quier did not dare to get up till
the referee rushed in, and allowed
him to get on his feet just within the
ten seconds. Megquier knew he
W asn't in it then, but thought it safe
to make a little break, and in return
got a clip in the ribs that pumped
the wind out of him. Sheehy glared
at him about two seconds more,
then just reached his left out fondly
for the Royalton giants neck again,
and he get there. Megquier was
caught with his legs tangled up, and
in the fall he threw his left ankle out
OF Joint. He made no effort to rise,
and he was counted out. There |
were roars and catcalls, until it was
ascertained that the unfortunate fell
low had put his ankle out of Joint |
A doctor was called and placed |
the bones in position, and the man
was properly cared for. This morn
ing his ankle was not badly swollen
and he returned home today.
Megquier is well liked by all who
know him, and his unfortunate ac-
cident is greatly regretted.
LATER
A more careful examinatiO n of
Megquier's injuries this morning by
Drs. Roberts and Trace revealed the
fact that the smaller bone was
broken just above the ankle. The
limb was placed in plaster cast
and the patient will remain at the
Buckman hotel for a day or two.

the words OF the Rt. Rev. Bishop
those are members of the body OF the
true church of God who are baptized
and brought up in the Catholic
church, whereas all persons outside
OF the Catholic church belong to the
soul OF this church, provided they are
validly baptized and follow the light
given them by God. None, he furth-
er said, will be condemned for not
knowing the truth but for willfully
resisting it.
These words certainly contributed
much to dispel errors and prejudices
about one of the fundamental doc
trines of the Catholic church. The
Bishop also very feelingly expressed
the hope that all the noble contri-
butors might be members of the true
church in the above sense.
After the solemn benedi ction a din
ner was served by the sisters for the
Bishop. clergy and those laymen
who acted as god-fathers and god
mothers during the blessing of the
bell. The god-fathers and god
mothers were Mrs. NJ. E. Butler, Mr..
and Mrs. Davidson, Mr. Musser, Mr..
and Mrs. Chas. Gravel, Mr.. kerrich,
Mr.. and Mrs. L. F. Richard, and Mr..
and Mrs. j. B. Richards. The sisters
herewith wish to express their most
heartfelt thanks for the liberal aims
they received yesterday at the hands
OF their numerous benefactors.
The sisters are particularly indebt-
ed to the members of the Harmonic
Band for their beautiful rendering by
which they essentially contributed
towards the establishment of the
memorable occasion.

Drives and Saw Mills.

From the Minneapolis Lumberman.
Owing to the eX tremely low stage
OF water in the Mississippi and
branches the drives are ecoming along
very slowly. But there seems to be
no question but that all the logs,
except those previously mentioned
as being hung up, will be within the
boom limits by the end of the season.
Even the logs that have been cut
farthest away, namely, the Bear and
the Vermillion river drives, will be
al Brainerd in fairly good time.
Even now these logs are in Pokeg-
ema lake and will be sluiced
through the government dam within
ten days. Over one hundred million
feet of logs passed Aitkin last week,
and the low water has made it con-
stant 'sacking'' even from the mouth
of Swan river. At last report the
river between Aitkin and Brainerd
was rising slowly, and the recent
heavy rainfall will no doubt greatly
assist the driving operations. The
Prairie river drive is coming slowly
but surely, and it is expected that it
will be out into the Mississippi by
the middle OF next month. The Pine
river drive, which consists of practi-
cally 4O,000,000 feet oflogs will shortly
be within the boom limits. -.
There are only two night crews
employed in the city at the present t
time. They are the mills of the
Akeley company and j. w. Day &
Co. There seems to be considerable
question as to the exact time that the
mills will shnt down, but the most
OF them are in favor of the Goth OF
September as decided by the Missis-
sippi Valley Lumbermen's associa.
ton. The log committee has already
notified the boom company in writ.
ing to close down operations by the
Goth or. thereabouts. Some of the
mills that are anxious to prOlone
their cut a little longer could pro
badly amass sufficient logs to last
them a few days beyond that point
but from the present outlook il
would seem that all the saw mills il
Minneapolis would be practically
closed down at that time.

WINAMAC, Ind, April 1.-THE passenger
steamer Nellie BLY,, owned by >.
F. Fishborn & Co, while making
4 trip down the river yesterday
afternoon blew up, seriously injuring
five persons George Crane, proprietor OF
the Eagle machine shops of this city. had
both legs broken and crushed and was
severely injured internally. He will die.
Others who where seriously and possibly
fatally injured are J. f. Fishborn, proprle-
tor of the boat, scalded and hurt internal
ly; Clarence Fishborn, his son, badly scaid-
ed Daniel Rhodes, badly bruised and inter
nally injured James Long, badly scalded.
Hardly passenger escaped unhurt.
When the accident occurred the boat was
in shallow water. The pilot had discovered
that there was something wrong with the
machinery and was steering for the shore.
But for this fact it is probable that every
person on board would have lost his life.
Daniel Rhodes was blown thirty feet in
land and completely covered with wreck
age. His recovery is doubtful James
Long was blown into the river and his res
cue was accomplished with great difficulty
by those who were not seriously injured.
