A Crazy Mans Antics.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Feb. 22.- Albert
Ammon, painter, while at work yes
terday on the roof of a four-story build
ing opposite the Iroquois hotel, became
suddenly insane. He was engaged in
removing some large signs likely to be
blown into the street by the high wind.
Frank Seitz and George Meyer, who
were with him, first noticed his condi-
ton when he attempted to hurl big
iron part of the sign on the crowd be-
low, who were watching the work.
Then he turned toward them and struck
savage blow at Meyer with an iron
bar. The two men grappled with him
and an awful struggle ensued. The
roof was covered with ice, and the three
men slipped SO near the edge that it
seemed that all would be dashed to the
street. Finally the men managed to
throw Ammon down, but even then his
struggles were SO violent that three
times he dragged his captors to the edge
of the roof. Patrolman Flanagan made
his way to the roof. The three could
not quiet Ammon, and the policeman
was obliged to use his club. Ammon
was securely tied and lowered by means
of ropes. He was taken to the hospital,
where lie is still violent. Ammon was
taken in the same way about year ago
while painting a chimney, and at that
time seven men were required to hold
him. 1t was believed he had entirely
reoororad

Secretary Morton writes a Letter.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Secretary of
Agriculture Morton has written a letter
to Representative Sibley, of Pennsyl-
vania, defending himself against the
structures made against him for his
position on the question of government
aid in exterminating the Canada thistle
and other matters affecting agricultural
interests. He incloses a letter which
he wrote to Governor Shortridge, of
North Dakota: s'No one more than my
self appreciates the Importance of ex-
terminating this and other noxious
weeds which lnfest the farms of the
United States, but do not think it the
business of the government to destroy
weeds for people any more than to raise
wheat for them or cut corn by appropria-
tions from the public funds" He adds
that, the government having given the
lands to homesteaders, they should be
inspired to bring them to the highest
state of.cultivation, and the law of self
preservation should teach them to apply
every means at their command for either
utilizing or exterminating the Russian
thistle. Morton quotes from editors and
editorials in agricultural papers in Man
itoba and Dakota, to the effect that the
thistle is very valuable for fodder or for
fertilizer. The secretary says, in view
of the diversity OF opinion on the sub
ject, that he sees no reason to change
his position as to the propriety of ap-
propriating 81 ,O0O, 900 for its extermina-
ton.

Ten days loss of time on account of
sickness and doctor bill to pay, is any
thing but pleasant for man of family
to contemplate, whether he is a laborer,
mechanic, merchant or publisher. Jas.
O. Jones, publisher OF. the Leader,
Mexia, Texas, was sick in bed for ten
days with the grip during its prevalence
a year or two ago. Later in the season
he had second attack. He says Gin
the latter case I used Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy with considerable sue:
cess: I think. only being in bed little
over two days. The second attack am
satisfied would have been equally as bad
as the first but for the use of the heremedy." I"
1t should be borne in mind that the grip
is much the same as very severe cold
and requires precisely the same treat
ment. When you wish to cure cold
quickly and effectually give this remedy

Newspaper Laws.

DR., Tuckerman, editor of the Work

the United States court on this subject
and gives to the Washington Post, as

2. If the subscriber orders the dis

publisher may continue to send them
until all arrearages are paid.
8. If subscribers, neglect or refuse
to take their periodicals from the office

are responsible until they have settled
their bills and ordered them discon-

places without informingthe publisher

5. The courts have decided that re-

The latest postal laws are such that
newspaper publishers can arrest any
one for fraud who takes a paper and
refuses to pay for it. Under this law
the man who allows his subscription tc

then orders it discontinued, or orders
the postmaster to mark it refused

IL sounds strange TO us, u was not so very

And here the old superstition camo In TINT
