Albert Lea Standard: There is a
fortune of 100000 pounds sterling.
in the oank of England belonging TO-
the descendants of wealthy member
of the Ransom family, and steps have
been taken by Capt. A. E. Ransom'
and other heirs to prove their claims
to an interest in it. The Sum is very
large and if it should be obtained and
distributed among the legal heirs in
America each would acquire hand
some sum, notwithstanding there is a
numerous brood of them. Besides
Capt. Ransom there are several others
in Albert Lea who can establish their
descent from the three English broth
ers who long ago landed in America,
and whose father left the fortune that
is now in the Bank of England.
Among these are G.. r. Ransom and a
sister in Iowa, his two sons, r. G.. and
G. W., and the editor of the Standard.
The heirs undoubtedly are entitled to
receive the fortune, and efforts are
likely to be prosecuted to obtain it,
but none of them are building air cas-
ties in anticipation of receiving a
chunk of it.

MANAGEMENT OF COWS.
An English Writer Advocates Kind
Treatment.

LIutf.e
The following plan of management de-
tailed by an English writer is generally
good. Most of us, however, will not
agree with his advice to change mixers.
He says: Good practical management
soon finds out that the cows are good
mixers and too soon we hear of the
cows that are tough to milk. You may
mark them down as bad milking ami
mails. / quite believe in the plan Of
having each cows milk weighed, but
the want of sufficient and Intelligent
mixers. IS an obstacle. The milking
should be done as quickly as possible,
little as can be helped. Careless and
slow milking soon spoil the best of cows
and put them difficult to milk for others.
at every milking, as 1T accustoms the
COW to different mixers. The cows should
be manage quietly and spoken to

fear from their attendants. Half of the
nervous, cows n sees have had the
life frightened out of them by bad usage.

pered mixers, and where, as 1 have

harm by starting others. When one
COW starts the alarm generally the
whole crowd follows. Everyone who
pays close attention to the milk yield
will find that when cows have been
alarmed and running, and when, for
Instance, they break out of the field,
it dimishes the yield of milk. This is

LAWYER SIMPSON HELD UP.
Tramps Seize Him Last Night Down
ToWn-TyO Other Victims.

Lawyer Alexander Simpson was
held up by two alleged high
waymen at Grand and Washington
streets. shortly after midnight. Mr..
Simpson was on his way home, and had
| just turned the corner into Grand street
from Washington, when he was seized
from behind by two men. A revolver
was placed at his head and his money
demanded.
Mr.. Simpson is only a shade over five
feet in height, and he apparently real
lied that it would be useless for him TO
give them a battle. BY a quiet move
ment he managed to break away from
his assailants. He ran down Grand street

ferry expecting every minute to be rid

sued him as far as Greene street, and
then abandoned the chase. Mr.. Simp-
son. however. kept IN running until he
banged into Policeman Finn, who was
doing duty on Exchange Place.
AS soon as he recovered his power of
speech. he informed the officer what had

trace OF the men who a held Mr..
Simpson up.
While Finn was searching Railways

Sussex street.
They. too, complained that they had
been held up by two on the same cor
ner about midnight. They gave the Off

believed that they We're tramps.
They did not get any money from any
of the three men held up, but Mr.. Simp-
son frankly, admits that he would rather
bill than to have. been so badly fright
