The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1896-06-06

Everything turned out splendidly.
The bullion was duly forwarded to Nor
rison, jenkins & Co., who promptly de-
camped with it to New YORK., sas ar
ranged. There we divided the swag and
went our several ways.
Mr.. Benson was found on the door
step of his own bank one morning in
an unconscious state. On recovering
he told the reporters that, a week previ-
ously, he had been set upon by two
men, gagged, and taken to vile den,
where he had been kept prisoner. Then
he had again been d,ugged, and awoke
to find himself beside the bank door.
He could give no reason for the outrage.
When, however, he heard of the miss
ing bullion, it is possible he began to
see through the business, but in all
probability he will never know how adj
mirsbly his place was filed on one
eventful morning by the man who had
the good fortune to be the bank man

ZUBROD THE GENIUS
Wants His Wife Placed in the Insane
 Asylum.

That eccentric old veteran and char acter who for many years has figured in comedy roles was yesterday before Probate Judge Grouse and told weird story that his wife was crazy and re- quested that she be committed to the insane asylum.
 The warrant for her arrest was is sued and entrusted to Deputy Sheriff Gibson to serve and also to subpoena witnesses in the case.
 It developed, however, that the woman was not insane, but i'll, and was more in need of care and medicine than anything else. The witnesses were of the opinion that MT. Zubrod did not treat his spouse as he ought and she testified that he had a playful habit of cuffing her.
 The probate judge gave Zubrod a se- were lecture about abusing his wife and promised that he would appear before the board of supervisors and have med icine purchased for her. Zubrod dra- matically denied that he ever lifted his little finger toward her and said that he was urged some time ago by a phy- sician of Tempe to have her sent to the asylum, but that he demurred as she was great help ito him in his shoe making business and without her he would not be able to take off his shoes on retiring or getting them on again if he should manage to get them off his feet.
 Zubrod is queer person and once came within an ace of being mayor of Phoenix through the perpetration of a joke which very near proved to be a reality.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1S.-A series of postoff1ce robberies have been dis covered by which the government or three Chinese firms will lose $4,O0O, which will be settled when more facts are known.
 The authorities state that seven Chi nese are implicated in the robberies which have been going on a month.

Names of payers were forged to checks and postal orders by members of the gang. None except Sam Tuck have been caught. Tuck is a bright young Chinese and has been well educated in the schools of the city.

GERMANY CELEBRATES. TWenty-Fifth AnniVer-
 sary of the Browning of King William of
 Prussia.
In Honor of the Day the Emperor Grants Amnesty to Many
 Offenders.

BERLIN, Jan. 18.-Throughout the German empire today the 18th anniver- sary of the crowning at Versailles of King William of Prussia, grandfather of the present emperor as emperor of Germany and the consequent eccle- siastic establishment of the German empire, was celebrated in some form or other. The great event was the gathering in the white hall of the cas- tie where the emperor surrounded by his ministers of state, generals of the army, admirals of the navy, members of the diplomatic corps, kings and princes all in glittering uniforms, made speech from the throne.
 An extra edition of the Reichstan- zeiger publishes in honor of the day the imperial decree forestalled yester- day by the socialistic organ, Voer- waerts. The decree grants amnesty to all offenders whose sentences do not exceed six weeks imprisonment or 150 marks fine. Those only are excepted who are guilty of insulting their su- periors, ill treating interiors or deser- tion
 The rescript begins with the remark Judt IHe emperOT IuueuuS to pardon military offenders. It is thus pre- stunned that imperial pardons will be extended to civil offenses and cases of conviction for les majeste. The im- perial decree further announces the foundation of the new Prussian order, the William order, which will be con- ferred upon men who render promi- nent service in advancing the welfare and culture of the people in accord ance with the recommendations con- tained in the message of Emperor Will liam I. The first recipients of the or der are the empress, ex4Empress Fred erick, Grand Duchess of Baden and Saxe Weimar. Prince Bismarck, Dr. Miquel, the minister of finance, and Baron Won Birlepsch, the minister of commerce.

NO STATE THIS YEAR. Admission Bills Knocked
 Out. Committee Will Not Report
 Until Too Late. The Cause of It All Is to Prevent .AnyIncrease of Strength
 for Silver

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-The house committee on territories will not re- port on the bills for the admission of New Mexico and Arizona until it is too late for congress to take action
 This is terrible disapp ointment to the people of the two territories who will now have to wait another two years before there is any hope of their dreams being realized. The reason for this action of the commit tee is manifest, for it was deemed wise to check any growth of the silver strength in the senate and the best means of doing it was to prevent any increase of representation in the house from the silver regions.

THE DENVER MINT SITE.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Secretary Carlisle has at last personally taken up the question of the selection of a site for the Denver mint. He does not appear to be satisfied, but is going through all the deeds and accompany ing documents. He said he hoped to be able to announce his decision be- fore the end of the month. The secre- tary was struck with the discrepancy between bids and appraisement rates for the purpose of taxation, and inti- mated very plainly he thought huge job was concerned in the matter. He said there were over forty bids.
