Mippeapolis Nov. 24.-Yesterday a
.oIogrom was received from the states
attorney Mt Aberdeen, s. d., stating
tbot the body Of the man who had
hean murdered at that place Tuesday
nod heen identified as that of John
CoIliton of Minneapolis. Mr.. and Mrs.
patrick CoIIiton. of POI University av-
onue northeast. the father and mother
or srpposed murdered man, were
notifpd by Chief Smith last night.
Tbav stated to the chief that their son
had left last July for Aberdeen and
that they had not heard from him Tor
some time. They were terribly grieved
over the intelligence which was con
viewed TO them, and during the Whole
night the house was visited by rlendS,
who came TO express their sympathy.
This morning, like one returned from
the dead, their son., John Colllton,
walked in upon them.
They could not believe their senses,
but soon they were made aware that
some terrible mistake had been made,
and that the murdered man was not
their son. From the depths of sorrow
they were carried to the heighths OF
10Y, and soon the joyful news spread
throughout the neighborhood, and an
jmprOmptu recHptiono was held, wei
coming the young man whom all had
thought dead.
Young Colliton came in on the morn
ing train. He knew nothing of the
report that had been received, and
could not make out the reason Of the
sadness which filled his home. After
he had been told of the telegram, he
looked upon il as Il joke, and o o the
whole family were unconscious Of the
sadness which had characterized the
night, and gave themselves up to the
happiness Of the reunion.
Mrs. COlliton had telegraphed for
the remains of tn" murdered man. and
had ever sent money to pay for the
transportation. 4 friend of the fam
lily had also started for Aberdeen to
make the Identification sure.
Aberdeen, s. D.. Nov. 24.-The news
that John COllitOn, whose body was
supposed 10 be lying at the morgue
here, had turned up in Minneapolis
alive and well. created a small sensa-
ton here. The officers 8re now more
than ever interested in securing the
Identification of the murdered man.

Nearino It's Close.

The work of the Tbirty-cighth
general assembly is now nearing it's
close. During the past two weeks
both branches of the general assem-.
bly, have been turning out bills and
new laws in profusion. The manner
in which the statutes are crowded
with vicious legislation is well known
by members Of the legislature who
have served a term or two in either
branch of that body. Every mem
her and senator enters upon the dis.
charge of his duties with the idea
that the statutes of this state should
contain some pet measure-the crea-
ton of his own brain. In order to
secure place for it among
the laws adopted, he Immediately
begins to secure promises of votes
for the measure, regardless of its
merit or true character. Thus, by
the time the legislature nears its end.
every member has some law that he
is enabled 10 pass, through promises
thus secured and trades made with
other members, and promises in
which he is pledged to vote for like
vicious and undesirable legislation.
| The last two weeks of the session
usually grinds out prolifcalIy from
this mill. What the record of The
Thirty eighth general assembly will
be, will soon be known, and upon
that record it must 90 before the

The subject of growing apples for

them, is attracting more attention
just now than it has at any time
during the history of the country,
aud especially this is the case in The
western states, including all the Mis-

Capital Removal.

On Friday of last week Senator
Wurdeman of st. Louis introduced
a proposition in the senate of this
state TO remov the capital from JEFF.
ferson City to st. Louis county,
wherein il was provided that there
should he put up before the election
81 600, 900 as a guarantee Of good
faith, and that the capital and other
buildings erected should not cost less
than So, 600, 600. On motion Of Sen.
ator Ieater of Scdalia the PROPOSE.
ton was postponed in order TO give
him time to look into it. The senate
was very generous to Senator Ieatcr.
Senator Harrison ofthis district, when
the capital removal to Sedalia was
up, asked for time and it was not
given him, and the SedaIia PROPOSE
ton rushed through. The St. Louis
proposition "a therefore postponed
one day and then taken up on Satur-
day morning and discussed at some
length, but was defeated by a strong
majority.
Senator Lyman who voted for the
Sedalia proposition when it was up,
stated Saturday afternoon in the sen.
ate that unless SedaIia put up,
several millions Of dollars to guar
antee the erection of the capital
buildings, he was opposed to the
question being put to a vote Of the
people-that it would involve the
state in a debt of $4,000, 900. lie
stated that that was the history Of
all capital removals and all schemes
Of this character. What is remark.
able, however, is that the senate
should so vigorously vote down q
proposition wherein the state was
guaranteed a million dollars before
the vote was taken. when they would
rush through a measure that would
require no guarantee whatever from
ScdaIia. The people Of st. Louis
will hardly look upon such treatment
as fair, and the people throughout
the state generally will be asking
themselves the question, why the
lawmakers were so ready to submit
a proposition for a town that agreed
to put up nothing and refused to
submit a proposition for a town that
agreed to put up $4,000, 900?

The Bridqe.

The citizens Of jefferson City will
be called upon in q short time to
change their bonus subscription to
the bridge into a stock subscription.
If every bonus subscriber will
double his stock subscription, the
amount necessary 500, 900 will there.
by be secured for the construction
and completion Of the bridge. The
bridge for which the contract has
been let calls for 500, 900 in cash
and $4,000 in bonds. The work on
this structure must be COM
menccd by the first of May and
every citizen who has been a bonus
subscriber can certainly afford to
change the gift into a stock sub
scription double the amount Of the
! bonus subscribed. The shape the
matter is now in necessitates the
| change from a bonus and an outside
company to a stock company of our
own citizens. Every citizens owes
something to secure the prosperity
and future stability of the town, and
when he is called upor should do his
utmost In order to make the bridge
a success.

Agricultural college from Columbia

ture to remove the state capital from

hurry and methods of the Sedalians
in railroading this measure through

severe criticism from the press Of The

money was used to control votes, and
with sufficient circumstantial evidence
to give abundant reasons for the sus-
picion.
Some representative men who
voted for this removal scheme ex-
cuse themselves by the assertion that
placing the whole thing before the
Missouri people, that they may eS-
press their will upou the subject of
removal, does net imply that all the
representatives who thus voted nee
essarily favor removal. This is
