porter heard several remark that it
was the ablest and most appropriate

Ihe young lady held that it took
bloodshed and hard struggling to bring
ABOUT those changes in the minds OF

The tribute paid to our noble women

Again the orchestra interspersed
music and was followed by

even better things are in store for
every one OF the young graduates.
The class song arranged to the tune
of Good Bye My Lover Good Bye"
closed the ''class exercises" after
which Prof. M. A. Robinson presented
each graduate with diploma. The
benediction was pronounced and thus
the graduation Of the class Of '93 was
ended.

The decoration of the hall was very
fine. To have described the suits and
dress worn by each one of the grad

looked nice-both the costumes and
the graduates. Each graduate re-
ceived beautiful floral offerings from
their admiring friends.

A SAD CASE
w. Nj. Barton, HOpelessly Insane, Goes
Home for Examination.

| nome sOr examination.
Sioux Falls Daily Press:-"W. NJ.
Barton, formerly big stock dealer OF
Madison, passed through the city on
the 1l:27 Milwaukee enroute for home.
He was accompanied by his wife and
Deputy Sheriff McKinnon of Usage.
| Iowa.
| Mr.. Barton last winter was out with
| his stock and in storm was partially
| frozen, his brain being severely effect
ed. He has since been insane. at
times quiet, but when excited he be-
comes fairly wild. His wife has had
him at Nora Springs, Iowa. for some
Time endeaVOring to restore his reason.
She has, however, despaired of sue
ceeding and has gone home to Madison
She will have the county board of in
sanity examine the patient and secure
for him place in the insane hospital
at YanktOn.
While at Milwaukee depot to-day
Mr.. Barton was unusually wild, being
almost uncomfortable. 1t seems that
on The way from Nora Springs. Mr..
Barton became very bad, and it was
thought necessary to handcuff him.
An attempt to do this threw the
patient into frenzy, and he fought
his way clear of the deputy sheriff. A
gentleman friend here took charge of
Mr.. Barton who pleaded earnestly that
the man who had tried to handcuff
him be obliged to wear the bracelets.
When the train arrived at this place
he jumped onto the platform and cried
Justify for policeman to come and
handcutf the man who had tried it
on him. He offered one bystander
$lOO if he would shackle the deputy.
The case is indeed sad one. Mr..
Barton has been prominent citizen
of Madison for some years. He has
been large stock shipper, and is con-
sidered wealthy
1t will be remembered that this
is the gentleman who went insane last
spring while buying stock at White
and was brought to BrOOkings.

Cultivating Shallow for Corn.

Prof. F. III. King, of Madison, has
just discovered that shallow cultiva-
tion is the safe thing for corn. Deep
cultivation, he says, cuts off the roots
and Injuries the ground and cOnse-
quently the yield. Now we knew that
down here at Lancaster this long
while. Westing and Hurley have been
talking that to us for three or more
years and John Westing has in that
time conclusively proved the great
benefit to be derived from shallow
cultivation. His corn field is yearly
evidence that he knows what he is
talking about. Farmers, try shallow
cultivation just once and be convinced.
An additional yield of five or ten
bushels of corn to the acre will make
you happy convert ito shallow culti-

THE GETTYSBURG FIELD.
Two Members Of the Commission Lool
Over the Ground.

Two Members Of the Commission Look
Over the Ground.
A Gettysburg special to tho Philadelphia
Press says:
Col. J. P. Nicholson and Col. J. B. Bach elder,
two Of tho board of United States commission
ers, spent the day on the battlefield. Gen.
Forney of Alabama, the third commissioner,
is Detained at his home by sick
ness and will not be present at this session.
It is difficult to ascertain what steps the COM
mission proposes TO take in the matter Of the
dissertation and destruction by the trolley
people. They refuse to talk on the subject.
and probably have reached no very definite de-
cision.
Tonight they met tho Battlefield Memorial
Association at its Office and had long consul
tation with the directors, but it any proposition
by either association or commission was adopted
1t was not given out
Col. Nicholson was requested to give the
Press his opinion Of the injury done by tho
trolley, but he answered.: II have told ali that
in my interview, when tho damages
were first described. There can DO no
question about it." However, it seems
assured that the commissioners are fully awake
to the vandalism, and have no desire to see the
land which will pass into the hands Of the gen.
eral government at the next session Of Con-
gress dsfgured and disgraced by people who
have no ideas above a dollar"
Col Nicholson and Col. Bachelor expect to
remain here for several days, and may talk
more freely before they depart, although it is
probable that whatever move they decide upon
will be made Unexpectedly.
The work is going on as usual Today tho
gangs were destroying the field in front of the
Bloody Angle" and within day or two there
will ha oho,,{ 90, a
along the west side of the stone wall, behind
which the Philadelphia brigade was stationed
when it repulsed Pickett's brave Virginians.
There Is joy here tonight among the citiz ems
OF Gettysburg who are able to distinguish be-
honor over the failure to pass the legislature
of the bill giving the right Of eminent domain
to electric railroads.

He Makes q Run Of 1,54O Points and Goes
Ahead Of Roberts.
In the international billiard match in London
last night Ives did magnificent work. He got the
balls jawed and scored l $40 points In one run.
His play throughout the evening" moreover
was neater and steadier than before since the
beginning of the match. The score now L.:
Ives (still playirg), 4,0Ol Roberts, 3.4s4.
The attendance was good, and both men were
on their mettle. Roberts first runs were 81, IS,
81, "a; Ives, 10, Is. 10, SO. Ives then fell of,
his best runs being Is and As, while Roberts
made his runs at 81, 40, 81, 81. "a and 139.
After making ten caroms, Ives finally got the
balls wedged at the mouth Of the upper right
hand pocket, and played from the one to the
other with the utmost lightness Of touch. When
the play was adjourned the balls were in the
same position. Ives will continue his run to-
night
The long run was exceedingly monotonous
for the spectators and many billiard experts
protested that such playing ought to be barred.
After the close of the play Roberts said that
he would give Ives this game II Ives would play
another match of 1000 points up for $500 or
Il 900, the condition Of play to be the same
except that the carom stroke be barred when
the balls should get damned in the jaws Of q
pocket. Ives declined this proposition.
The Sportsman says: lives evidently meant
business and was smarting from having had q
carom decided against him earlier in the even
ing. The balls are peculiarly placed. They do
not touch. the white one is well in the top
shoulder and the red one certainly we'll on in
the jaws. 1t appears that Ives can continue
until 1t pleases him to STOP"

Him to PcEjure Himself.
Before the committee investigating the New
York custom house yesterday Stephen W. Bas-
sett, the stenographer Of Appraiser N. W.
Cooper, was examined in reference to the
publication Of the official correspondence in the
Dry Goods Chronicle.
Appraiser Cooper, by request Of Secretary
Carlisle, made an investigation into the matter,
and reported that he could not find out any
thing about it. Mr.. Cooper testified that he
had no idea how the correspondence became
public. Mr.. Bassett had long statement pre-
pared, which he read. He said that he had
given the correspondence to the Dry Goods
Chronicle at Cooper's request Further, Mr..
Bassett declared. that when Secretary Carlisle
ordered the investigation as to how the CORES
pondence became public Mr.. Cooper tried to
get him CBassett) to make en- affidavit that he
knew nothing about 1t. Bassett refused. aud
Cooper threatened to remove him il he would
not and to get him better place if he would.
HE tried several times to get me to perjure
myself" said Mr.. Bassett, "and when refused
he wrote to Secretary Carlisle asking for my
removal"
When Assistant Appraiser Corbett refused 20
answer some Of the questions prepared Bassett
said to Cooper: "Corbett has given your case
away. He has admitted that you knew all about
Mr.. Cooper replied, Bassett testified. as fol-
lows: THAT is none Of your business. Let
Corbett take care Of himself. What want is
statement from you. l am a good swearer my
self. and have got myself out Of many hole
that way"
Cooper tried again to get Bassett to sign an
affidavit that he knew nothing Of how the COR
respondence became public, and Bassett per-
sisted IN his refusal
Then the copies were obtained from the Dry
Goods Chronicle and Mr.. Cooper came to the
witness, saying: The way is now clear for you
to make statement" A Bassett still refused
Cooper reported to Washington that Bassett
refused to give evidence in the investigation.
Bassett then wrote to the Secretary TO the
effect that he would not testify. because Cooper
wanted him to testify what WAS not true.
Deputy Appraiser Cyrus Stevens, Mr.. Bassett
said, was interested In preparing the afddavits
for witness to sign.
Mr.. Bassett declared that his statement was
prepared from stenographic notes taken at the
time.
Amory T. Tingle. supervising agent Of the
treasury, was the next witness. He said he had
been in the service for twenty years.
When Appraiser Cooper first made charges
against Wiswell the examiner, the charges
were referred to him, and he appointed Special
Agent Mccoy to Investigate them. Mccoy ex-
onerated Wiswell.
Mr.. MacFsrlane called witness attention to
the published statement that he and Assistant
Secretary Of the Treasury Spaulding came to
New York. after Appraiser Cooper had made
second charges against WiswelI. that the APP
praiser told them that it was no use trying to
examine goods with such an examiner as Wis
well, and that witness and Spaulding agreed to
transfer Wiswell to another place. This Mr..
Jingle denied.

tho public interest may require the exercise Of
such authority means the then existing over
head wires, or Is applicable to an extension Of
the electric light oompany's service BY putting
down new and additional wires.
ut seems to me II the additional wires which
this company desires to lay are necessary in
order to crafty the demands for electric
lighting by people living on the streets
along which they desire to lay their
conduits, that that is such public in
terest' as will justify the Commission
i they choose to exercise 5srass their authS1
reasonable conditions, as they may pre-
scribe. I do not believe it was the inten-
ton Of Congress to delay the extension OF
wires for electric lighting beyond the
time the electrical board should report, or
at most beyond April 1. 1892 the date fxed in
Congress was only to restrict further extension
Of electric wires until the best method Of I'M
derground conduits was ascertained.
'The electrical board having reported to
Congress on the subject nearly two years
ago, and the electric light company pro-
wires under ground precisely in accord
ance with tho plan or system recommended by
the electrical board, see no objection to grant
ing the permit to the extent the Commissioners
believe the public interests require such ex-
tension"

That the League IL Doomed and q New Or
ganization Has Been Planned
The Philadelphia Press, which ought to know
better, by the way. today prints special from
ST. Louis saying that the base ball magnates
will meet in New York this week to arrange for
a new league of ten clubs or two leagues Of
eight each. The special says:
1T is an assured fact that the ten-club idea
will be carried out. and that the Louisvilles in
the west and the Baltimores or Washingtons in
the east will be asked by the league to sell
their franchise. This would leave Boston, New
York. Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Washington or
baltimore in the eastern circuit, and ST. Louis.
Chicago. Cleveland, Cincinnati and Pttsburg
in the western. schedule for such circuit
would be clumsy affair at the best, but it is
superior to a twelve-club league, with a file OF
taieuders."
The statements are too ridiculous to merit
contradiction The only strange thing about
them is that any one could suppose that they
would be believed.
