Fargo Forum A prominent citizen Of
the northern part of tho state was at
Grand Forks the other day. He visited
the city on the east side and found the
beverages stronger than he was accus-
toned to in y prohibition state, and in
consequence his friends took him back to
tho hotel somewhat unconscious. Some
ONO suggested a practical joke. A doctor
was called, splints put upon his leg, and
all bandaged up. A watcher set beside
the mans bed when he returned 10 con
Seriousness. His log was tightly band
aged and it panied him; he turned down
the bed clothes and found his leg all tied
up and concluded he had broken the limb.
Friend after friend dropped ia to condole
with him, and the leg panied him SO much
that a hook was placed in the ceiling, and
hi. leg wal lifted from the bed by the aid
o. a rope. The second day he insisted he
must go home that afternoon. Friends
demonstrated, but finally ono told him to
20 if he wanted to, and whipped out his
knife and cut the rope and b~andages.-
The man waa astonished to find his leg
whole and was tho maddest individual
who has been seen 10 tho state for some
time.

He used to take an Interest in all things

Pioneer Press: A disgusting and
shameful sight it is to nave Prender-
CAST. the murderer, cutting up his
horrible antics in Jail in order to sup
port the contention Of his council that he
is insane. What use there would he in
keeping him alive if he had actually gone
insane since conviction nobody deigns to
to ez plain. That he was sane enough to
be responsible when the lead was done
the jury has already determined. There
has been no more access of insanity since
then i'll his case than in that of tho judge
who ordered the examination. OF course
lie understands why he has been reprieved
and what is expected of him. He is, in
fact, rather OVERRIDING the business by
his clumsy attempts TO show mental de
rangement. All the while that this awful
comedy is being played, no thought seems
to be given to the murdered man whom
this human beast sent to his grave
Everybody is absorbed in the interesting
question whether the law can be bent to
secure the release of his assassin. And
still We wonder occasionally why lynch
law IS so frequent in this country, Any
thing better calculated to make the aver
age citizen despise the law and rufuse
either to appeal to 1t or DO bound by il

scarcely BIO imagined.

FROM THE HEAVENS.
A Huge Meteor Falls to the Earth. mn
brushes an Elevator at Buffalo

A dispatch from Buffalo N. D., dated
April A., says: The most wonderful work
of destruction occurred here shortly after
midnight. An immense meteor, weighing
several tons, struck the cupola of the ele-
vator and literally crushed the entire
building to fragments. The force exert.
ed must have been enormous and the
great mass of metal must have fallen
from an immense height to have encom-
passed the terrible work Of destruction.
After the crash, which made a report
like the explosion of a powder magazine,
"a sound which was heard for miles
around,-an illuminated column, having
all the colors of the rainbow, shot heaven
ward and remained in place for nearly
half All hour, lighting a space at least a
mile square so that one could easily see
to read a newspaper at some distance
from the scene of the disaster. Strange
to- say, however, fire did not follow and
there was but q slight heat coming from
the gaseous illumination. People were able
to go within a few feet of the wreck and
to inspect the meter, without experience
ing the least inconvence. The meteor, as
much of it as appears above the ground,
appears to be something the shsp of a
flattensd' egg and the topof it is covered
with a net work Of green stripes an inch
or SO wide and laid across on each way,,a
if you should bay stripes across an egg
the long way and cross them. with other
stripes laid the other way Through the
holes in its net work the strange light
seemed ! pour: out. III about haaE al
hour the light died away and the wreck is
now sSnlihrbrudsd I'd darkness.

Comparative Longevity.

Women appear to have an advantage
bvcr men in long living. Statistics recent
" collected by Professor Humphrey of
ngland in his work ON Old Ago. shows
tiat rs usual, in records of longevity, the
women prcpondcrate over the men in spite
Of many disadvantages they have to con
tend with, such as the dangers incidental
H. child bearing and diseases associated
Herewith. He attributes this to the com
parative immunity of women from many
exposures and risks to which man is sub
ject. Temperance in eating and drinking
also freedom from anxicties in reference to
labor and business, are on the side of the
female sex.
No woman writer has yet taken up the
subject | bClicve, which seems odd, as fc
male physicians are now necessity of
modern times. 1t has been often stated
and is probably true that the principal au
thors on the subject of longevity have
been physicians, who, as a rule, do not
reach the standard in age of the average
man. Gallon is said to have lived to his
one hundred and fortieth year, but the
statement Is not credited nowadays Hip
pocratcS died at lO4, which is not doing
any better than many day laborers of our
times. Rochcfoucauld, that wise and OBJ
servant Frenchman, said that few people
know how to be old, he perhaps thinking
himself one of them, though he died ut
the age of 81. In some of its aspects moth
ing seems to be more capricious and eccen-
trio than the law in regard to longevity.
Firstborn children, and also those born
out of wedlock, were formerly believed to
be more likely to live longer than any
other. The offspring of centenarians, if
they would only intermarry with their
class, might in time surpass all other peo-
pie in length of years, but if human beings
will not take the trouble that the careful
breeders of horses and other animals do
they cannot expect to go much over a cen
tury.-William Kinnear in North Amer
