Henry Feig was one of the

legislature next winter and be a
candidate for speaker Of the

speaker is already in the field, j.
D. Jones of Todd county. Mr..
Feig will base his claim for re-

county had the speaker in 1898
and the southern part of the
state, Winona county, in 1895.
Kandiyohi county is centrally

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 10.-The Press
this morning publishes an appeal to the
American people, signed by President
Betanoourt Of the provisional government
Of Cuba, and craving recognition for the
insurgents. Says the appsal
All we wish now is to be looked upon
by ths government Of the United States as
mon and soldiers battling for their birth
right. We do not wish to appear In the
eyes Of the world like bandits and rabble.
After rehearsing in detail the history of
the United States struggle for freedom the
appeal continues:
We ask the American people to grant
as, through their president and congress,
those rights Of bslligerenoy to which. 40
cordinR to the laws Of war and Of nations,
We are entitled. Our armies have marched
whittier they might throughout the entire
island and for weeks have threatened the
stronghold of Spain's power in Cuba.
Must We capture Havana and drive
6pain's hirelings across the sea before we
are even given the right as men to fight
for that priceless gift which God destined
should be universally divided among his
children Must we gain our Independence
before we are accorded the sanction OF the
world TO labor for IT.
Is spain entitled to consideration at
the hands Of modern, civilized and high
~ progressive nationi Does her misrule
Of Cuba for a century commend her 10 tht
hearts and minds of menf Are her hire
linRs here TO lift up and educate the Cuban
and make his beloved island prosperousP
Cuba, the bleeding, appeals to her
American sisters. She does 1t in the name
Of God, Of Justice, of civilization and Of
America.

three masted schooner Florida went ashore
at Salisbury beach, with seven men cling
ing to the rigging. Soon after the masts
gave way, letting the seven occupants into
the sea. Two of the bodies were washed
ashore--one that of mulatto The life
saving crew could do nothing, as no boat
could stand the sea. The vessel hailed
from Belfast Me.
She struck the sandbed near where the
schooner Jennie NJ. Carter was wrecked a
year ago in treacherous spot. When first
sighted, had the life saving crew been on
the beach, all could have been landed safe
ly. Big bonfres were built on the beach
aud attempts made by fishermen to reach
the schooner. Bombs with line attached
thrown by the life saving crew were not
caught by the men on the Florida who
were in benumbed condition. Five of
them were on the mizzenmast, one on the
malnmast and the other on the bowsprit.
Several hundred people saw the wreck

There was no sensational incident at
tending the execution. The condemned
man met his fate with calmness and with
no apparent weakness. The current was
turned on for one minute and 81 seconds,
the highest voltage being / 800.
Speaking Of the execution, Warden
Thayer said:
1.-THE sentiment Of the prisoners on the
subject of Shea s execution was so decided
y in his favor that concluded not to let
the prisoners out OF their cells until after
the execution. So all the convicts found
themselves locked in their cells until after
the execution. II had let them out,
could not have been responsible for the
'afety Of my machinery or wires, for any
one of them would have taken his life in
his hand to have saved Shea. The re-
sponsibility has been a very great one--the
greatest in my service--and am glad it
is over ~

Artist Murdered In His Studio.

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Professor Max
Eglau, a veteran teacher of drawing,
widely known in this city, was murdered
in his studio In the Institution For the
Improved Instruction of Deaf Mutes. The
police have arrested three mutes, students
at the school, and there Is a chain Of cir
cumstantial evidence against them which
the detectives say is strong. In spite Of
the arrest, the affair is attended by the
deepest mystery. There were several
wounds on the head which had evidently
been inflicted with a shovel, which was
found In the room. One theory Is that
burglar killed him, as the artist was
known to have had 500 In cash In his
pockets, and only 90 cents was found.
