Sent to the Grand Jury.

With being an accessory to arson, in setting
fire to the dwelling Of William Dodson, 2112 C
street northwest, was the charge against Annie
Fountain, Q colored woman, in the Police
Court this morning. Judge Miller expressed
very little belief in the truthfulness Of the
prosecuting witnesses. remarking that five
dollar bill would have altered the testimony
Of any one Of them. But he thought there was
some mystery in the matter and thought the
grand jury might well attempt to solve 1t. The
woman emphasically denied the charge, stating
that it was an attempt on the part of others to
make her give up some Of her money. But.
Jail first" !.
mo need Of such sacrifice, Mrs. Fountain ~
remarked his honor. But you will have to
give bond Of q 900 for your appearance
before the grand jury" And MIRA Fountain
gave it.

Senator German Consults With the Presi-
dent the Subject.
Senator German called at the White House
early this morning and had talk with the
President before the callers began to arrive in
force. He came to discuss the adjournment Of
the Senate and to ascertain Mr.. Cleveland
wishes in the matter. Senator German said
that the Senate appeared to be ready for
adjournment at any time until yesterday after
noon. when Senator Hoar's insistance upon the
Roach investigation put a different phaze upon
the situation.
1t is understood that the President intimated
that he has few more nominations to send in,
but that the business might be cleared away by
the latter part of this week early next week
and the Senate could then adjourn.
Senator German said that il the republicans
insist upon pressing the Roach investigation
the absent Senators, who left the city under the
impression that this case would 60 over, will be
autographed to return and quorum formed to
transact whatever business the Senate decides
upon.

Ex-Secretary Rusk's Close Call.

Ex-Secretary Rusk had narrow escape from
accident this morning. He got off a downtown
car on the avenue between 9th and 10th streets.
and was leisurely proceeding to cross the other
tracks q few feet from a car going uptown.
The gripman rang the bell in the most violent
way and in . shorter time than it takes to tell
it it had dawned on Mr.. Rusk that some Of the
noise was intended for his personal benefit and
he wisely concluded to draw back few inches.
Those few inches allowed the car to 90 by, but
the little incident took away the breath Of every
body watching it It was . real close shave for
Mr. Rusk.

Dolph Exchinge Tiles.
The White House ghost is still having fun
with the visitors hats The regular habitue Of
the Presidents ante room has learned by this
time to carry his hat under his arm, but the
newcomer rashly lays his hat down anywhere
and sometimes doesn't find it again.
Ex-Solicitor General jerks called this morning
and when he Was ready to depart his new silk
tie was minus. He looked around with q
panied expression as If he thought it rather too
much that a man should lose a cabinet appoint
ment by hairs breadth and then be deprived
Of the very hat on his head.
At the same time Senator Dolph was in the
next room wondering what had happened to
his head, for he couldn't get his own hat on.
After some scurrying around by the messen-
gers the two beavers were located, and Mr..
J, Ks and Mr.. Dolph went out rejoicing, but
holding firmly onto their hats until they passed
outside Of the White House grounds.

1t is amusing to anyone acquaint-
ed with affairs at Bismarck to read
the various newspaper accounts of
the last hours of the session. The
fact of the matter is that Jud La
Moure wanted to kill time in order
to kill certain railroad measures,
and for that purpose commenced
the fight for woman suffrage, and
found an able alley in the president
OF the senate, Lieut.. Governor Wal
lace, who, as presiding officer pre-
vented the majority from controll-
ing the actions of the body for eight
long and precious hours. The OBJ
ject sought after was attained and
important anti-railroad legislation
was defeated. Such papers as the
Grand Forks Herald and Fargo For
um attempt to place the burden of
responsibility upon innocent shoul-
ders, while they applaud the action
of the white bearded billy goat who
occupied the presiding officers chair.
Out upon such hypocrisy! Let the
guilty alone suffer.

We have been requested by some of
our local sportsmen to publish the fact
that an unwarranted slaughter Of
prairie chickens is going on in certain
localities, and this too in direct viola
tion of the law. The fact of one or
two chickens being killed out of sea-
son by farmer who wanted them for
his own consumption would not war
rant 'kick" but when hundred or
more chickens are brought into town
and sold at about ten cents each as was
done recently, there is ample reason
for complaining, for every chicken
killed now means the loss of a dozen
or more for this falls shooting. The
chickens have wintered now and
should be left undisturbed until the
law permits killing them. The parties
who are cognizant of the slaughter
above referred to have blood in their
eyes and assert that no more killing of
chickens ont of season will occur un-
the parties are brought to Justice

The news comes from Bismarck
that McLean's warehouse bill is not
to become law, Notwithstanding
the fact that it passed both houses
of the legislature, almost without a
dissenting vote. The fault lies with
Lieutenant Governor Wallace, who
as president of the senate, did not
attach his signature to the bill.
Whether this is due to negligence
on the part of the president, or
other causes, we leave our readers
to conjecture, but the fact remains,
that this, the only distinctive far
mers measure passed at the late ses-
sion, received its quietus at the

The Carman, (Man.,) Standard
comes out with a unique remedy
for the drinking curse; bearing upon
it the impress of common sense,
which cannot be said of prohibitive
legislation. The abuse of alcoholic
liquors having existed since the days
of Noah, the Standard advocates
measures to lessen and cure it's ef-
feet rather than the adoption of coer-
cion to stamp it out entirely. The
eradication of the evil, root and
branch, is beyond the power of
mortal man, but if our governments
were to build drunkards asylums IN
which to confine patients who are
too weak to resist the craving for
strong drink and the adoption of
the gold cure, which it believes to
be an admitted success, that much
good would result.
