PADDY" BENNETT RELEASED.
His Friends, slater and Griffin, Are
stu in Jail, However.

Paddy Ashe, the New York suspect, who
was arrested by the detectives at the re-
quest of Chief Detective O'Brien of New
York city, was released yesterday from
Jail, on a telegram received from New
York, stating that the grand jury had
failed to find an indictment against him.
This result is very much regretted by
Chief McDermott and the detectives, who
calculated on seeing Ashe, or Bennett, as
he gave his name here. safely on his way
to New York. Ashe is one of the trio of
gamblers who did up several business men
of the city recently, and he may be re-
arrested to-day on a charge growing out
of these cases.
Henry Slater, one of the trio who was ar
rested Friday, but who succeeded in Civ
ing bond, was given up by his bondsmen
yesterday, and was sent to jail by Justice
Naughtin Peter Griffin, who was arrest
ed at the same time with Slater, has been
in Jail since Friday.

dttlOnally; but as each sQuatter goes on
the land, he selects his 100 acres, which
are then surveyed When the bulk of the
land shall have been thus claimed it will
no doubt be speedily opened. Four new set
tiers went down last week, and prospec-
latest advices from Washington are to
the effect that final steps will shortly be
taken. Or. /Perrine himself never saw
this land. 1t was selected by an acquain-
lance, Charles Howe of Key West, who
afterward became his nominal partner,
and assisted in the transportation of sisal
plants from Campeachy. Howe survived
Perrine, but after the latter's death on
Indian Key. he made no attempt to carry
out the original intention with regard to
sisal culture. He abandoned the idea as
well as all claim to the land 1t was he
who induced John Addison, thirty years
ago, to take up a squatter's claim, as in
an probability the land would at some
time be subject to homestead entry.
Charles Howe did most of the little work
that was done by the Perrine manage
ment and If anyone had d right 20 the
land II was he; but no claim was made,
and his son, Charles Howe, Jr, who sur
wives him in Key West, manifests not the
slightest desire to press any claim nor
do the Perrine heirs. Henry Perrine, son
OF the grantee visited Cutler about
twelve years ago, looked over the land
thoroughly, and being convinced of It's
value, and seeing that it would be worth
nghting for, has ever since been trying
to establish his ownership of it, Thirty
squatters have now settled, following John
Addison's example of thirty years ago.

The Chatham Artillery, or, rather its

veteran corps, and win hold a meeting
probably on Jan, 20. after the parade in
honor of Lees birthday for that purpose.
There are abouttwenty of the honorary
members of the artillery who have uni
forms, and it is their intention to take
part in the parade under the command of
Capt. John f. Wheaton. They will be
mounted and accompanied by the two
Washington guns. There are eight or ten
other members of the corps who have
expressed a willingness to join such a
corps, and 1t is more than likely that
such an auxiliary organization under the
command of Capt. Wheaton will be form
ed at that meeting.

skim MILK Calves.

"Tvc got the best lot CT calves | ever
had" remarked Bait Ryan. while getting
his creamery check at the s%ecretary's
office this week. Whatever doubts Mr..
Ryan ever had as to the value of separa-
tor milk upon calves he is now fully
convinced that a good calf can be raised
on skim milk from a creamery. He
raised fifteen Of them this season and
a large part of them were fed the separ-
ator milk after they were ten Gays old.
Mr.. Ryan's manner of feeding was as
follows: He stirred a pint of ground oil
cake in a pail Of water and gave a pint
of the Cruel in every feed OF milk to each
calf. He bought 30 pounds for 10 cents
and it lasted well through the season.
That beats feeding butter fat at 10 cents
a pound.
In this connection it is well enough to
add that many dairymen prefer the pure
ground flax seed. 1t costs about double
but contains all the oil. The object OF
feeding the oil meal is to take the place
Of the butter fat removed in the cream
IL is said, too, that the best and easiest
way to feed it is to pour about a pint OF
boiling water on a teaspoonful of the oil
meal, thus making a Cruel, and mix il
with the milk. This is a ration for ont
calf. As the calf increases i'll age thu
amount of meal can be increased q!
shown by digestion OF the calf. The no
water cooks the meal somewhat ant
assists nature

Alexandria Herald:-Dr. Hammill,
VINO attempted to shoot a man not long
ago in Chamberlain. will be brought to
Alexandria and kept in the Hanson
county Jail, because it is alleged the
Bruie county Jail is unhealthy. The
bill will be paid by Brule county, by or
der of the court. But there is always
more or less trouble in collecting these
bills and commissioners have a way Of
looking with extreme disfayor on the
bills rendered against their counties by
another county for keeping prisoners or
in change OF venue. Hanson county had
an experience with the Phelps case
which she is not likely to forget. She
paid the bills and the money has not yet
been forthcoming to reimburse her. This
in a large measure accounts for the
heavy taxes OF late. The people had
hoped they would not have another ex-
pcrience, at least, until the treasury was
replenished but it seems they are doomed
to disappointment. or course, the bill
in this case Will not be anywhere near
as great as it was in the Phelps case and
it may be promptly and fully paid; let
us hope so at any rate.

\ Bunch OF KEYS.

Not the stage comedy by that name,
but a legal farce even more ridiculous.
A farmer living south OF town found a
bunch of keys on the street and played
the gag Of Dawning them for the drinks.

pint OF "here's looking at you at John
PaZour's place. 1t was learned after
ward that the keys belonged to Mike
Reed who. as it happens also, runs IN
other dispensatory up the street. Reed
was informed that his keys were in soak
and that he could have them by coming
to the front. Reed demurred. He filed
it in the way Of a replevin suit before
Justice Savage. Reed got his keys and
Pazour got it in the neck 5000 worth.
