ST. PAUL, March 12 The joint legis
lative pine land committee has won
its first victory, the big Minneapolis
lumber firm of G.. A. Smith & Co. hav-
ing paid into the hands of the attorneys
for the committee $40 500 and surren-
dered for cancellation the lease covering
the pine on the tract in Mile Lacs
county, over which the legislative com
mittee made fight. The pine on this
land was not only undervalued out un
derestimated, and the land Illegally
leased. The amount paid to the state
is the difference between the prics
called for in the lease and the actua
value of the pine.

A Fourth Infantry Private Drugged, As
saulted and Robbed.
CoeUR D'ALENE, Idaho, March 9.-Har-
ry G. Brenner, Company G, Fourth In
fantry, soldier of 20 years. service
and one of the most harmless and inof-
fensive men of the command, was drug
ged, assaulted and robbed in this city
Wednesday night by some party or par
ties unknown. He was found at eleven
O'Clock by the city marshal lyirg near
the paint shop of Rosen Bros, on Sher-
man street, and was at once taken to
the post hospital, where every effort
was made to save his life, but without
avail, and death occurred at O'Clock
the next morning. He never regalned
consciousness after being taken to the
hospital.
AS a soldier was held up by two me- q
about an hour previous to the finding of
Brenner and robbed of small sum of
money, it is supposed by many that the
same parties were implicated in his
death. The fact that two strangers
have been seen here within the past
two days suggests the idea that they
might have been the guilty parties
Color is lent to this supposition, as they
cannot now be found, and to the fact
that it is the first case of such a nature
that has occurred here. Soldiers car
rying large sums of money have been
in the habit of going to the post at all
hours of the night and have never be-
fore been molested. Brenner was bur
ried today at 2 p. m. The Odd Fellows
had charge of the funeral arrangements
The military also attended and rendered
the honors due to a soldier.
The postmortem examination showed
that death resulted from opium poison
| ing; also that an assault had been made
as the nose had been crushed as. though
by sand bag.
Two soldiers are in the guardhoust
under strong suspicion. They were ar
rested at 10 o'clock last night. There
is strong feeling against them, but the
discipline is perfect. There is no dan
ger.

suit for divorce on iden.ically the same
charge as that made by wife No.
Wife No. had found love letter OF

INDIANAPOLIS, March 12 The full
bench of the superior court has given
the Catherwood estate Judgment for
s37 900 against John Carlisle and Con
gresham Tom Johnson, of the Cleve-
land, Ohio, district. In 1872, when

pointed the latter discovered that the
stock certificates had fallen into the
hands of Tom Johnson, the Cleveland

The great falling off in shipments
from Michigan mines for the year 1893
as compared TO 1892 and previous years
is noticeable. In 1892 Michigan pro.
duced 46 20 per cent OF the ore mined

shows that November /, 1893. bnt 3.673
men were employed in the Marquette,
Menomlnee and Gogebic ranges, as
against II 272 the corresponding date
in 1892, and he says that the causes
which led to a suspension of operations
was an inability to secure m oney TO

ToccoA, Ca, March 12.-R. A. Naves,

at the point of death, and the man he
charges with running his daughter fred
the shots that may result fatally
About six months ago Naves discovered
that his daughter had been deceived by
Albert Bailey. Bailey had skipped
out. Naves determined to find him, If
he was on the face of the earth, and
started on his search. He went to
Tennessee and Kentuckey, following
Bailey; then to Chicago, where he
searched for several weeks in vain. On
his way back home he went to Alabama
where he finally found Bailey. Bailey
swore that he was not guilty, and Naves
saved his life on condition that he would
go back to Toccoa and either marry the
girl or stand trial for seduction. He
bound the young mans hands and
brought him back. He has been out on
bond awaiting trial. The two men met
here and quarreled. Naves, who was
unarmed, struck Bailey, knocking him
down, and then attacked the latter with
bricks. Bailey drew pistol and fired
four times In rapid succession. The
first shot struck Naves in the abdomen.
The last struck his jaw, breaking the
bone and knocking out two teeth
There was great indignation and con
siderable talk of lynching the shooter
but the officers hurried him to a place
