in conjunction with the mayor and city

was the acceptance Of the came, on the

capitalize enterprises. Several Of his
associates assisted by European capital
now wish to establish sugar factories in
Nebraska and the spirit exhibited by
the Red Cloud gentlemen naturally led
Mr.. Hansl to believe that the deal
would be easily contaminated, and they
would erect a 100 ton factory in Red
Cloud the coming spring.
There are several impediments in the
way Of the establishment OF the factory
at present, chief among which is the vot.
ing Of the bonds, which would not be
negotiable unless voted under a Law

tories an internal improvement. Such
q law prevails in Kansas. and snch a bill
will be presented to the Nebraska legis.

age. This voyage was accomplished in
nine months more, when we find her
of the coast OF Florida. After spend
ing the winter months in this vicinity,
she started for more northerly lati-
tudes. arriving off Hatteras In June,
1894. From this point she endeavored
to cross the Atlantic ocean once more,
seeking to do this by using the South
ern passage. but on arriving In lati-
tude 80 degrees north she started for
the Northern passage. This change
must have been a serious mistake, for
on Oct. 81. 1894. she was seen for the
last time. and there can be small doubt
that she has sought and found her
last resting place.
After she was abandoned It is known
that the Wolston was afioat for three
years and six days. The distance which
she travelled in that time can only be
coniectured-that is, by locating the
places at which she was reported as
having been spoken. and connecting
these with straight lines. and measur-
ing these lines, which make the enor-
nous total of 9.156 miles. This amount
could be doubled, even trebled, end
yet be within reasonable possibility.
For when the reports have been made
within a few days Of each other, ii is
seen that she constantly doubled on
her track. and II cannot be supposed
that she travelled from one position to
another by the nearest route.
Although derelicts are a constant
source of danger to other vessels. yet
their Journeys are useful in determin-
ing the set. direction and velocity of
the currents in the ocean.

Exciting Sport Found In Capturing the

From Good Words.
As we came abreast of a tiny cove or

denly stiffened with excitement and he
muttered "Blow-ow-ow" In an under
tone. There in that little dock-like
cleft lay a monster just awash. tiny

to be accompanied by calf. Down
came the mast and sails as II by magic
and in less than one minute we were
padding straight in for the cove. The
water was as smooth as a mirror and
the silence profound. A very few

We carefully approached again. the
harpooner and officer having changed

full of injuring her calf, she quietly died
and gave no sign. Case-hardened old
blubber hunters as we were. we felt
deeply ashamed, our deed looked so
like a cold-blooded murder. One mer-
ciful thrust of a lance ended the calf's
misery, and. rapidly cutting a hole

TWAS A FATAL5STAB
MANsFlELD's KNIFE DID II
He Was Cut In a Horrible Manner,
and Eye Witnesses Declare
That It Was a Cowardly !.
Piece OF Business.

Tom Lynch. the young dishwasher at
the Butte hotel, who was stabbed in
the abdomen by Dave Mansfield on
Oct. 2s. died at Murray & Freund's hos
pital a little after o'clock yesterday
morning from the injury and compli-
cations which followed 1t. Mansfeld's
knife entered Lynch's right side be-
tween the seventh and eighth ribs and
punctured his lungs and the injury was
at once pronounced fatal by the ply
sicians. The young fellow possessed
a wonderful vitality. however, and af
ter towering between life and death for
a couple of weeks he commenced to
show marked signs Of improvement.
His improved condition continued up
to a few days ago. when he took a
sudden change for the worse and an
operation was decided upon His side
was opened and a quantity Uf pus was
found in the pleural cavity between
the hung and the ribs. The hemorr-
hage from the lungs insted Of having
been absorbed had decomposed and
there was also CONSIDERABLE BILE fnfianma-
ton. The pus was removed and the
right lung was found to be entirely coll
lapsed and in a dangerous condition.
After this discovery the physicians
gave up all hope of his recovery and
he gradually grew weaker until he
finally died from exhaustion. Coroner
Richards took charge OF the remains
and he will conduct an inquest at 10
o'clock to-day.
The etabbing was a most cowardly
piece OF business and there was not
the slightest provocation for It. In
scrubbing out the kitchen Lynch al
lowed a little water to run down into
the basement where Mansfield was
employed. He then went down stairs
and got a broom with which to sweep
up the water and Mansfield followed
him upstairs and plunged the knife
into his side. He rushed at him again
and would probably have killed him
on the spot had the boy not escaped
by jumping out of a window, The
knife used was a potato knife with
thin, keen six-inch blade which Mans
field had ground into a dagger-like
form. 1t was an ugly weapon, and
Mansfield put II in his pocket after
Lynch allowed the water to run down
into the basement with the apparent
intention of using 1t on him at the
first favorable opportunity. His only
excuse for the assault was that the
boy had taken a broom which belong
ed In the basement and afterwards hit
him In the face with II, which latter
statement is denied by all OF the eye
witnesses TO the stabbing. Mansfield
was regarded around the kitchen as a
tough man and had the reputation of
having stabbed a man in Utah OF Col
orado. Lynch was a quiet young fell
low and was trying to earn enough
money to get back to his home in st.
Paul. His father came out from st.
Paul on receipt OF the news OF the
stabbing and remained with him cou-
pie OF weeks.
