bodies of Herman Meyers and Nora A.
Richardson were found lying on the
ground in front of a vacant house on
Downey street Tuesday morning. Each

volver was lying close to the corpse of
Meyers. Two gaping wounds in the
girls back and one in her breast told
tie story of a murder. while hole in
Meyers left temple indicated that he
had killed himself after taking the
girls life. Little is known of the
couple, but from letters found on

betrayed the girl under promise of mar
riage. All of the letters begged Meyers

shame should become known TO the
world" and the letter of most recent
date threatened him with prosecution
if he did not speedily make good his
,vcrd. It is supposed that they met

GRANT AND WASHINGTON.

Two Wonderful Serials With 'The Cen
tury Magazine Has Secured for 1897.
One of the best friends that Gen.
There 6rstme was at Chattanooga
in the autumn of 1868, and soon after
Gen. (then Captain) Porter became a
member of Grants staff and served with
him constantly until Lees surrender.
When Grant became president Horace
Porter was made his private secretary,
and until Gen. Grant breathed his last
at Mount McGregor the two men were
close friends. Nor did Gen. Porter's
love for his chief cease with his death,
for to him is due the success of the move
ment to raise the half million of dollars
which the Grant monument in River
side park will cost. The Inauguration
of the tomb will take place next spring
on Grants birthday, and Gen. Porter
will be the orator of the occasion.
During these years of intimacy with
Grant Gen. Porter kept diary, and in
his moments Of leisure he has arranged
his unique stories of anecdotes and
memoranda into series of twelve ar
ticles, entitled Campaigning with
Grant," and The Century Magazine
has secured all rights in the series and
will print it during the coming year
Since the famous Century War
Series,'' for which Gen. Grant himself
wrote four articles (the beginning of
his "Alemoirs'), no magazine has had
such a treat to lay before its readers.
Another great serial in The Cen
fury is a novel of the, American Revo-
luton, written by the well-known Phil
adelphia physician, DR.. S. Wier Mitch
ell, whose literary reputation is as high
as his standing in his own profession.
The story is supposed to be the auto
biography of the hero, Hugh Wynne,
Free Quaker" who becomes an officer
on Gen. Washington's staff. Social life
in the capital, Philadelphia, is most in
terestingly depicted, and the characters
in the story include Washington,
Franklin and Lafayette. The readers of
Hugh Wynne, the Free Quaker" will
obtain clearer idea of the Revolution
ary War than can be had from any
other single source. It is believed that
DR.. Mitchell has written 'the great
American novel; for which we have
been waiting so many years.
These are only two of the features of
The Century for the coming year-the
magazine that leads the world of pc
riodical literature. Very few Of our
readers will be without it in 1897. It
| costs $500 a, year, not too high a price
for what The Century gives, but
many people are arranging to club
together in groups of four, paying
one dollar each, and securing the
reading of the magazine one week
in the month. The publishers advise
the making up of clubs early. Send
$500 to The Century Company, Union
square, New York, with the name OF
the person to whom the magazine
is to be sent. If you begin your
subscription with the December Christ
n1as) number, the publishers will send
you a copy of November free, in which
the two great serials begin.

Forestry Experiments.

DR.. f. B. Fernow, chief of the for
estry division of the department of ag-
riculture, was in Crookston comforting
with the superintendent Of the Crooks
ton state station looking to extensive
experiments in forestry. The idea is
to introduce into that section trees
whose habitation is III other countries
similarly situated and of like climatic
conditions. 1t is believed that valua-
BILE woods may in this manner be added
to those Indigenous there, and that
fruit and nut bearing varieties of other
lands may be successfully grown. DR..
Fernow will make trip into the
reservation lands in order to observe
the conditions which obtain touching
the preservation of native forests. The
experiments to be carried on will be
cooperative, the general government
bearing a large share of the expense.

COMMON PLEAS CASE.
California.

Every Wednesday and Saturday at 6 D. m. a train leaves Chicago over the famous Santa Fe route, which makes the run to Southern California in less than three days, This train is composed of Pullman palace vestibuled sleeping cars, buffet smoker and din- ing car of the most luxurious pattern ever designed.
 Another improvement in the Santa F'e service is in the time of the weekly tourist excursions, which now leave Boston every Thursday at 11:30 a. m, and reach California the following Tuesday. The cost of tickets is lower and the time faster via these excur- sions than via any other.
 The Santa Fe route is the only line running entirely over its own tracks from Chicago to California. and those who intend making a trip west will find 1t to their advantage to communicate with g. W. Manning, New England agent of this line, at 332 Washington street, Boston.

Mrs, Mary J. Holmes Granted a Divorce
 Suit Against Town md City-Max Ka-
 mems Assignment-sent to Reform
 SchOol-Other Court Notes. Judge Townsend yesterday rendered two decisions in the suit brought in the United States court by Henry II. Fran cis against Joseph P. Earle. The suit was to recover on certain promissory notes.
 The complainant had moved for a disclosure of defence on the part of the defendant. The defendant answered, setting up that the notes had been de- livered on conditions that they could be renewed at maturity. They were not renewed.
 Complainant then moved for judg- ment on the ground that defence was insufficient.
 Judge Townsend decided that the motion was not properly before the court, saying that if the pleadlngs were defective remedy should be sought by appropriate action, or by demurrer. He dismissed the action In these words; '"Action may remain on the docket for trial"
 The defence alleged that the notes in question had been given in considera- ton of stock, and that the stock had not been delivered,
 Complainant filed three demurrers. The first on the ground that the con- dition regarding the renewal of notes was not contained in the notes, and was at variance with the same. The second demurrer was on the ground that defendant had not offered to re- new notes; and, finally, that defendant failed to allege that the stock in ques- ton should have been delivered before the payment of the notes.
 The first demurrer was overruled by Judge Townsend, and the second and third sustained.
