They have some queer movements out
West. One of them has just made its
appearance in the State of South Da-
kota, where there has been formed an
organization of business men and 9TH
ers, the object of which is to secure the
repeal of the prohibitory law of the
State. The body is reported to be made
up entirely of professional and business
men, from which liquor dealers are ex-
Guided. The reason urged for the or
ganization is that during the seven
years in which the law has been in
force it has proved to be a failure as a
temperance measure. The declaration
is made that the effect of the law is
seen in retarded development, disas-
trous stagnation of commerce and stop
page Of emigration into our borders"
In addition to this, it is claimed that
the law has not suppressed the open
ing more than place liquor selling where
it has become practically impossible to
regulate it. AS proof of this it is de-
olared that in the past year 1900 gov
eminent licenses have been issued to
retail liquor dealers, 'of which 300 are
held by druggists, $50 by keepers of
bootleg saloons, while $50 have been
taken out by persons who run wide
open" grog shops in defiance of the law,
in localities where the sentiment of the
people is opposed to prohibition.
this organization says it is, perhaps a
license law could not be enforced there.

sweeping, by circuitous road across
the northern part of Illinois, making
havoc in its immediate path and dis

many hundred miles. The storm seems
to have varied remarkably in it's force,
some of the points along the route es-

turbance has been the large number of
cloudbursts which have occurred not
only in it's direct path but at points adj

blow and drenching downpour of wa

Iowa, the wind and rain were accompa-

Michigan there was great disturbance
and damage. And when all this had
taken place then came the worst wind

He Was StiG-Limbed Animal, but he
Beat Anything on the Track.
From the Kansas City Start
When Kansas City was young and
the bulk of the towns business was
conducted on the levee and the street
continuous thereto, and Main street
was muddy, a livery stable was located
out of the way at Thirteenth and
Grand avenue, 1t was kept" by Cal
hoon & johnson. This was in grass
hopper" year. Belonging to the stable
was a horse known as 1.-THE old white
horse" If it had any other name most
people have forgotten 1t. THE old white
horse was almost rigid of limb, and
was so 'stove up that he was given
the run of the town and at grass by the
sides of the streets without interference
from impounders and deputy impound-
ers and assistant deputy impounders,
who delight in taking up" any inof-
fensive animal not tied or chained or
locked in. This old horse had the blood
of KINGS in his veins and had come
lucky.
In those days there was no Jockey
club, and the races either came off dur
ing fair time or were impromptu af-
fairs. Jockeys rode about the country
in movers" wagons with lean, clean
limbed horse hitched behind These

One day an oldish man came along

ranged to take place in the afternoon
at the old MCGEE track.
| On the way out to the track the old

would say.

OYSTERS GAZE HIM LIBERTY.
How n Russian Banker Bought his Free

How a Russian Banker Bought his Free
dom From Serfdom.
{From the New York Tribune,)
One of the best known banking
houses of st. Petersburg, and the one
to which most American visitors to
Russia carry letters of credit, is that Of
Messrs Shalounine G. Sons, the founder
of which, father of the present head of
the firm, owed his liberation from serf-
dom fifteen years before the decree of
emancipation, to a barrel of oysters.
Old Shalounine was a serf belonging to
Count Sheremetieff, one Of the wealth.
lest mobiles in Russia. He had fire.
quently entreatied the count to grant
him his freedom, Offering him as much
as five hundred thousand dollars for
the boon. But money was no object to
the count, and 1t gratified his pride to
feel that one of the leading bankers of
the empire was one of his serfs, unable
to marry either his sons or his daugh-
tiers without his masters consent.
| Moreover. as serf. the banker was liza
| Bile to have his money seized and con-
| fscated by the count, since everything
| that belonged to a serf, including his
wife, children and property, belonged
| ipso facto to his master.
| One day Shalounine, who had just
that very morning returned to the cap
ital from Odessa, called at the Sherme-
| tieff palace for the purpose of reporting
his arrival, as in duty bound, to his
! owner. He had brought with him a
| barrel of delicious Crimean oysters for
| presentation to the count, but left them
| in his carriage at the palace door until
| he should have obtained his masters
| intimation that his gift was acceptable.
| On entering the presence of the count
| the banker found him surrounded by a
party of guests and engaged in bera-
ting the chief butler for neglecting to
provide oysters for the breakfast to
which they were about to sit down.
! The butler was explaining to the count
| that there were no oysters to be got in
the capital at that moment for love or
money Catching sight of the serf
banker the count exclaimed:
ooh, it is thou again, thou art come
to poster me once more for thy liberia
ton! Thou knowest that it is useless.
| 1 should not know what to do with the
money. But, stay, will tell thee some
thing: Get me some oysters for my
| breakfast and thou shalt have thy free
dom!''
Shalounine bowed low. left the room,
| fetched the small barrel of oysters
which he had left in his carriage at the
door, and laid it at the feet of the mas
| ter.
AS soon as the barrel had been
opened the count called for pen and
paper. wrote out a declaration emanci-
pating both the banker and his family
| from serfdom, and then bowling courte-
ously to the man who but a moment be-
! fore had been his slave, exclaimed:
And. now. my dear Mr.. Shalounine,
will you give us the pleasure of your
company at breakfast"

JURY W.ELL TREATED.

Judge Woolson of the United States
court in Des Moines, Iowa, has shocked
the lawyers by separating jury for the
night, telling them not to discuss the
without having read the newspapers.
The statutes of Iowa forbid the separa-
ton of a jury before agreement or dis
agreement. The United States statutes
are not quite clear on the subject, but
the judge decided to apply the rule of
common sense. and to let the lawyers
make test case of the matter, which
they propose to do. Talking on the
subject later Judge Woolson said: 1
would like to have the federal jury so
governed that some business men can
be induced to come here and sit on it.
No wonder that men try to avoid jury
duty when they see staring them in the
face the hardship of being compelled to
sit up all night in small, close room
The statutes of the United States say
that the federal court shall follow the
method and practice of procedure of the
State In which the court is being held
so far as may be. This is indefinite.
The federal judge has power to limit
the time of the argument of attorneys
to the jury, and he has many other
powers which are foreign to the judge
sitting on the district bench. 1t is
wrong TO keep those men shut up in that
room with no place but the floor to lie
down on all night. 1 cannot see that
any harm can come from separating
them, and do think harm can grow
out Of keeping them in there. Under
the strain they have been laboring I'M
der little animosities must arise which
will set men a certain way, so that no
argument nor anything else can change

AFRICA;S TERRIBLE FLY.
History and Habits of an Insect All Elk
plorers Hold in Dread.

History and Habits of an Insect All Elk
plorers Hold in Dread.
(From the London Chronicle.)
We have been so accustomed to near
of the ravages of the tsetse fly in South
Africa that definite scientific informa-
ton on the subject cannot fail to be
welcome. Surgeon Major Bruce, at the
request of the Natal government, is in
vestigating the habits, life, history,
ETC.. of this terrible cattle scourge.
The fly has been well known among
the Zulus as nagana, term signifying
low or depressed in spirits. The genus
to which the fly belongs is allied to the
common blood-sucking stomoxys, for
all of which tsetsc appears to serve as
a common name.
AS showing the want of exact knowl-
edge existing on the subject, it is stated
that observers and travellers have even
questioned the connection between the
fly and the disease. Thus so eminent
dipterologist as Van der Wulp has
concluded that the tsetse is not injuri-
Gus, or that its i'll effects are exaggera-
ted.
From DR.. Bruce's observations 1t
would appear that the fly is vivipari-
Gus, giving birth to adult larvae, a
most important fact hitherto unnoticed
The disease itself, he finds, is due to
the presence in the blood of an inocula-
ted animal of flagellated infusorian, q
haematozoon furnished with a mem

brane, or FIN" running along one SIDE
of its body, With flagellum at one end.
The appearance of this haematozoon in
the blood Is signalized by rise In tenn
perature; the incubation period is from
seven to twenty days, after which perl
cd the haematozoa may be found
swimming actively among and appa-
rently worrying" the corpuscles, the
red-blood eorpuscles becoming very
largely reduced in numbers, With the
progress of the disease the haemoto-
zoa increase in numbers, and at the
time of their hosts death may amount,
in the dog, to three hundred and ten
thousand per cubic millimeter Of blood
Or. Bruce has demonstrated that 1T
is possible repeatedly to feed tsetse on
a healthy dog without producing dis
ease in that animal, showing that the
fly possesses no specific. venom, but
that, if allowed to draw blood from a
diseased animal or the carcass of one,
they will communicate magma to heal
thy animals. The disease is invariably
fatal in the horse, ass and dog, but per-
haps not necessarily so in cattle, in
which it runs much slower course.
From some preliminary experiments,
arsenic appears to have a marked ac-
ton on nagana, causing disappearance
of the haematozoa, reduction in tenn
perature, and maintenance of the red
blood corpuscles.
