A Minnesota Crank Has Set the Day for
Her Funeral.
WICHITA, May S.-The chief of police
of this city received letter today from
some crank residing in Kenyon, Mimi,
in which there was enclosed $40 to buy
''pure white flowers to be placed on the
body of Mrs. Lease on the day of her
funeral" which he sets for May Goth.
He also specifies that part of the
money must be used to purchase oil to
pour upon her feet. He says the Naza-
rene came to him in vision, with a
cross of blood on his breast, and COM
manded him to kill Mrs. Lease the 10Th,
that her designs to subvert His kingdom
on earth might be thwarted. He al

HINTS ABOUT DRIVING.
A Little Advice for the Benefit of Young

A Little Advice for the Benefit of Young
Horsemen.
When driving you must watch the
road. Turn out for stones, so that the
horse shall not stumble nor the wheels
jolt over them; avoid the mudholes
and places where the going is bad; let
the horse slacken speed when the road
becomes heavy, and if you want to
make up time do it where the ground
slightly descends, says a writer in
Waverley.
It is common mistake to think that
a horse can haul a carriage easily on
the level. On such a road he has to be
pulling every moment; there is no rest;
whereas when the road now rises and
now falls the weight is taken off him
at times and he has chance to recover
his wind and to rest his muscles. As
between q level road in n valley and
an up-and-dovn road over the hills the
latter is by far the easier for horse
to travel. When you come to long
level stretch let your horse walk a bit
in the middle of it.
Almost everybody knows that for
the first few miles after coming out of
the stable horse should be driven
slowly and especially if he has just
been fed. On journey it is of the ut
most Importance to observe this rule.
Be careful, however, not to check a
young nag too quickly when he comes
fresh from the stable. Give him his
head. talk to him soothingly, and pres
emily he will come down to moderate
pace. If you pull him up at once you
vex him extremely, so much so that he
is not unlikely to kick

along tho foot IL tgruat range OF noun

this time for such a supposition as there
was when the former rumor to the same
effect was exploded
