COMMISSION PLEASED.

Red River Drainage Work Progressing
Satisfactorily.
ST. PAUL, Jan. 2.-The Red river
drainage commission met at the gov
ernors office, holding two sessions. Mr..
Valentine, Governor Nelson, Mr.. Miller
and Assistant Secretary of State Stock
enstrom were present. The meeting was
for the purpose of closing up business
FOR the year.
Mr.. Valentine, president of the COM
mission. spoke for himself and the other
members, saying that they were highly
pleased with the way in which the work
contracted for by Mr.. Rinehart had
been done. He has accomplished all
that he agreed to do and more,
since, although the work is not COM
pleted in detail, temporary bitches have
been cut, which will relieve the overflow
of spring waters and give the district
practically the benefit Of the completed
undertaking, although this was not
promised until Aug. l.
Mr.. Rhinehart will receive what is
left of the annual appropriation of
s31, 500 for drainage. and will wait until
aext year for the balance due him. The
drainage done this year extends over
100000 acres, and indirectly benefits a
still larger area.

L!ust q Mail Carrier Doff His Hat?

An interesting and novel point was
raised in a peculiar manner in Kansas
City recently. The question arising was,
Is a United States postman in contempt
of court when he refuses to take his hat
off in a state court? The mail carrier
entered the courtroom with his mail
pouch slung over his shoulder and some
letters in his hand. He advanced across
the room and laid them on the clerks
desk.
The deputy sheriff raped for order.
The mail carrier walked toward the door
and still kept on his hat. The deputy
met him and told him to take his hat
off; that he was in contempt of court
The man of letters replied that his cal
was a part of the uniform which the
federal government required him to wear
while on duty; that he was there on duty,
sid there was no law to make him take
it off. The deputy warned him that he
could not enter the courtroom again with
his hat on, and the matter was reported
to the authorities in the federal build
ing.-Washington Post.

DEED OF A DEMON.

An Omaha Man Cremates His Entire
Family Including Himself
OMAHA, Jan. lon marble slabs at
the city morgue lie the charred remains
of the family of John Cummings.
Father, mother, baby and grandmother
are there, awaiting the outcome of the
coroner's inquiry. Nothing in Ne
braska's annals approaches the deed for
horror.
Cummings had been in ill health for
some time, and according to 12-year-old
Tommy Fox, who was present, he de-
iberately set fire to his own house and
caused the death of his mother-in-law,
his wife and his 1-year-old baby in the
flames. The little boy tells straight
forward story, and when asked how the
fire originated he said: ssCummings
was sitting on the edge of the bed in
rear room, where Mrs. Cummings also
was with the baby. Another person in
the room was Mrs. Fox, the mother of
Mrs. Cummings, my aunt. There was
fuss about something, and Cummings
upset the lamp and closed the door. COM
polling the inmates to stay there. They
cried, but he refused to let any of them
out"
Another Witness Talks.
Philip Nathan, a next-door neighbor,
says that when he first saw the flames
he noticed Mis-. Cummings trying to
open the shutters to the window of the
bedroom. He heard her cry out and
say, my baby is already afire." Soon
thereafter he saw the woman enveloped
in flames.
Miss Nellie Fox, who is a relative of
Mrs. Cummings and frequent visitor
to the house, says that Cummings had
been sick for quite long time. She
disputed her brothers statement about
Cummings having purposely knocked
down the lamp to burn the entire family.
but the boy rejoined that he saw him do
it. He alsol added that when he first
took notice he saw Cummings sitting on
the bed crying.
The police are working on the case
yet, but have developed nothing to dis
pute the evidence that Cummings COM
mitted the crime while in a fit of insane
rage.

the announcement was read.
When Clerk Fitzgerald arose to read
the finding of the jury the prisoner stood
clutching the back of a chair, cycling
him with the most intense eagerness.
His long, bony fingers nervously clasped
and unclasped the back of the chair, his
knees trembled violently, his face was
flushed, and his spiteful looking mouth
opened and closed as though he would
say something, but lacked the power to
speak.
I'VE, the jury, find the defendant,
Patrick Eugene John Prendergast,
guilty of murder in manner and form as
charged in the Indictment and
Fix the Penalty at Death"
Fitzgerald's voice, clear and calm,
read out the finding ard died away with
slight emphasis ON the final word.
Then Prendergast revealed himself
the utter coward. His face turned pale,
he opened his mouth to speak but only a
faint mur1nur came from between his
hot and quivering lips. He moved
slightly and would have fallen, but for
the assistance of bailiff. When the
jury was polled he listened with avidity
to each and every answer to Judge Bren-
tano's question.
WAS this, and is this now your YER
dictY'
1T is" said Foreman Jacob Suffer,
and 1T is, y repeated every other juror,
and then hope and the last vestige of
courage faded utterly in Prendergast' s
breast. He was half led, half carried
back to his cell, where, refusing to
speak, he threw himself upon his bunk
in the attempt to hide from his fellow
prisoners, whose expressions of satisfac-
ton over the verdict were more en-
phatic than graceful, and more sincere
than polite.
