still further as to whether he had q
family and answered that he had-a
wife and three children. On being
asked how long he had lived in Des
Moines he said about 80 years, and
then he was asked whether he had not
recently got into some trouble down
there-some trouble with a woman or
otherwise, and he said that he had
about three or four months ago, but
he refused to disclose the nature OF
the trouble, notwithstanding that q
good many questions we're put to him
on the subject. Asked whether he
practiced bigamy he replied in the
negative, and said that the trouble
with the woman could have been the
only reason why he was arrested.
He was then asked whether he
would return to Iowa without extradi-
ton papers. He refused to answer
the question, saying that he couldn't
tell just yet. Inasmuch as Chenno-
with is a parol prisoner it will be un-
necessary to have extradition papers.

food tide of gold and commerce.
These things come gradually and often
we must measure months with months
instead of weeks with weeks, before
we can see any change. The return
or prosperity suggests to me the re-
turn of the tide. The general move
ment all aloug the coast is forward
and upward. Here and there are plac-
es where the waves seem to be still.
Yonder is a small eddy. Yonder a
point where there is an apparent re-
cession of waters, yet all the time the
tide is coming in, and if you will
watch long enough you will seq these
little eddies, these places of recession ,
of still water, chase each other up and
down the tide line as far as the eye
can reach. That man would be short
sighted indeed, who, looking at one of
the small eddies, we're to say that the
tide was not rising, or at one of the
places where the water seemed to be
going backward, we're to insist that the
tide was going out instead of coming
in. So with the return of prosperity"
Mr.. McCleary made good point on
the question of the relative supply
and price of gold and silver that is
now worrying the world. Gold is be-
ing discovered in large quantities and
yet silver declines in price. 1t was
once, and not long ago, the belief that
the low price Of silver was due to the
scarcity of gold. Bring in lots of gold,
said the financial seers and silver will
go up. Lots of gold is being brought
in, and yet silver declines in price.
Says Mr.. McCleary on this point:
81 referred to this matter in my ad-
dress before Congress, but neglected
to elaborate it in the speech as pub
lished. I then held and hold now
that the supply of gold had nothing
to do with the supply of silver, save
possibly to reduce it, and recent events
are fully bearing me out. Let us sup
pose city SO located as to have the
command Of only certain field for its
wheat supply. Let us suppose the
field planted with wheat and buck
wheat. Now, if the wheat should be
short in any given year the demand
for buckwheat would increase. But
let season come when the wheat
section OF the field yields literally and
the demand for buckwheat will go
down and the people will use it again
only for pan cakes.

MD. McCLEARY'S VISIT.
His Talk on the Monetary Commls.
sion and Question.

Apropos of the visit of Hon. J. T.
McCleary, our Representative in Con-
grsss, to this place last week, 2 little
interview on the money question with
that gentleman, who is authority on
everything pertaining tothat question,
had with a Journal reporter, might
not be amiss.
Mr.. McCleary is not sorry that the
bill providing for a monetary commits
sion failed to pass Congress. 1t went
through the house but was pigeon
holed in the Senate, and this, he says,
will be the last Of it. It is the function
of Congress, he says, to originate f.
nancial bills, and it would have been
q very unwise thing to have created a
commission, with the stamp of the
government upon it's acts, to do this
work. Far better, he holds, is the
plan now being adopted, of naming
an unofficial commission. This COM
mission, the outgrowth of the Indian
apolis convention, will represent the
business sense of the country, and
whatever il recommends will receive
due attention at the hands of the house
committee on banking and currency.
It would be embarrassing to say the
least, We're the commission sanctioned
by the government to such an extent
that Congress would feel compelled
to follow it's dictum, no matter what
that dictum might be. Under the
present arrangement all these compli-
cations are happily avoided. Mr.. Nc
Cleary insists that this is the best pos
sible arrangement.
"The Democrats are now trying to
put into our mouths things we did not
say" continued the congressman.
"They are telling the people that we
promised an immediate return of pros
perity in case of McKinley's election,
and are making much of the fact that
Mckinley has been in office since
March without any appreciable better
ment of the financial Z and industrial
conditions. Even Democrats are now
admitting that times are growing bet
ter, and so I presume nothing is need
ed to show how utterly short-sighted
are those people who still insist that
the country is where it was in 1893.
"Let me give an illustration. The
return of prosperity must be slow in
the very nature Of the case. People
who have lost money as result OF ov-
or confidence, who have been caught
between the upper and neither mill
stones of the hard times, are going to
be careful before investing again.
They do not regain confidence in .

VIOLATED HIS PHR0L.
James ChennoWlth Goes Back to
Iowa on Account OF
Threats to Kill.
Threatened to XIII His Employer,
Mr.. Johnson, and then to
Kill His Wife.

James Chennowith, employed by
Mr.. M. M. johnson, the cement side
walk contractor, now working in this
city, was arrested here shortly after
noon Tuesday, by Chief of Police
Crooks, on telegram from j. b..
Stout, sheriff of Des Moines county,
Iowa, which did not state why Chen
nowith was wanted, but merely stated
that the sheriff had warrant in his
hands for the arrest of the man. Chen
nowith was lodged in the county Jail
to await the arrival of the sheriff at
this point.
Chennowith S arrest is due to his vi
olation of parol. He had been an
inmate of the Iowa State penitentiary,
and some years was paroled on condi-
ton that he would be on his good be-
haviour and that he would not leave
the State unless he had permission to
do so. He has wife and three child
rem residing in DesMoines, and it is
understood that the wife recently COM
menced an action for divorce against
him.
His arrest appears to be due to Mr..
johnson, the sidewalk contractor, Tor
whom Chennowith has been working
in the capacity of trowel man ever
since Mr.. johnson commenced the
work in this city. Mr.. johnson has
been holding back part of his wages
and sending the money to Mrs. Chen
nowith, securing receipt from her
for each remittance. He has been do
ing this on account of Chennowith' s
drinking habits, the latter of recent
| getting drunk at the conclusion of ev-
cry job and on receiving any money
from Mr.. johnson. He was drinking
pretty hard during the latter part OF
last week, and one night while drunk,
and when out of money, he went into
Mr.. Johnson's room in the Redwood
House, this city, and while the latter
was lying in his night robe on the bed
Chennowith grabbed him over the
breast, and brandishing a razor in the
air, told him to deliver over SIS or he
would cut the heart out of him.
Mr.. johnson turned over the$5.
The next day after this episode
Chennowith met johnson and told
him that his wife had commenced an
action for divorce, and that he was
going back to Iowa to kill her. Mr..
johnson knew Chennowith as man
who generally carried out his threats,
and he Immediately notified the Gov
ernor of Iowa of what had taken place
The Governor of Iowa ordered Sheriff
Stout of DesMoines county, who is an
old neighbor OF Mr.. johnson and the
Chennowiths, to proceed to Redwood
Falls and bring back Chennowith on
the ground of having violated his pa
rol. It is expected that the sheriff
will arrive here to-day to take Chen.
nowith back with him.
Chennowith was seen at the county
| jail few hours after his arrest Tues.
day afternoon. He did not know why
he had been placed under arrest, and
when asked by a GAZETTE reporter
whether he had ever been in prison
before and whether he had not violat
ed parol in any manner stated en-
phatically that he had not beea ir
prison and consequently could moi
have violated a parol. He was pressed

REDWOOD COUNTY FAIR.
Premiums Doubled Over Those
Offered Last Year.

The twenty-fourth annual fair of
the Redwood County Agricultural
society will be held at the society's
park in this city on Sept. %, % and
"a. The work of preparing for the
fair is now going on and President
Cooper and Secretary Dornburg, to-
gether with the other directors are
giving daily attention to putting the
grounds in first-class condition,
and making all preliminary arrange
ments for an extensive exhibit.
The official premium list, so far as
it has been prepared, is published on
the 9Th page OF this issue. Next week
it will be published in complete form.
This week two departments are miss
ing-the domestic and culinary de-
partments, the two classes belonging
exclusively to the ladies Of Redwood
county. New lists of articles and pre-
miums are being prepared for both
departments, and the ladies having
the new lists under consideration ex-
pect to have every premium offered
competed for, inasmuch as they are
quite certain that all of them can be
made here in Redwood county.
In offering the long list of premiums
which have been doubled over last
year, the directors do so with the ex-
pectation that farmers of Redwood
county will compete for them and that
they will give their assistance toward
making the fair success. This is the
only fair before the quarter century
anniversary of the society, which takes
place next year, and at which time ex-
ira inducements will be offered to all,
and the fair will be as much in the
way of silver jubilee as it will pre-
MUM winner. The premiums this
year are all good and worth competing
for.
There will be racing features, base
ball, and other attractions in connect
ion with the fair this year. The meet
ing will take place SO as to bring Red
wood into one of the racing circuits,
whereby good many fine trotting and
running horses will be here. There
will be two trotting races each day and
one running race. Aside from this
there will be one or more bicycle races.
There will probably be two games of
base ball during the fair-one on
Thursday and the other on Friday.
Just what clubs will play is not yet
known.
While it is not yet definitely decid-
ed it is probable that Wednesday, the
first day of the fair, will be given up
to a city fair day, with street attrac-
tions. In the past these city or street
fairs have brought large crowds OF
people to town, and they have been
given every advantage on part of the
merchant. The latter feels as though
he should not give his goods away all
the time, but has consented to make
the sacrifice for the first day of the
fair.
Watch for special premiums and
special sales in the regular issues Of

now and fair week.

M'CLELLAN'S WARHORSE.
bomething About Dan, the Only Charger
the General Rode.

General McClellan's favorite war
horse, usually called Dan, was a dark
bay, about II hands high, we'll bred,
with good action and never showing
signs of fatigue, no matter how long
the course. He was an extremely hand
some, snowy animal, with more than
ordinary horse sense. Dan was a very
fast walker-an important requisite in a
commanders charger-but a disagree
able accomplishment so far as his staff
were concerned, as their horses in gem
eral were kept on a slow trot.
After the war Dan became the family
horse at General McClellan's country
home in Orange, and seemed to be proud
of his position, performing his duties
well and easily. On one occasion, when
driven to a neighboring estate by two
ladies of the generals family, and left
united, as usual, at the door, Dan came
to the conclusion that they had remained
long enough for an afternoon call, so,
declining to waste any more time there,
he trotted back to his stable, carefully
turning out to pass carriages and other
vehicles met ON the way home Dan
died and was buried in Orange.
The general said of him: "Dan was
one of those horses that could trot all
day long at very rapid gait, which
kept all other horses at a gallop. He
earned from the aids the title of that
devil Dana name that he justified ON
many long and desperate ride before
gave up the command of the Army of
the Potomac. Dan was the best horse /
ever had. He was never i'll for an hour,
never fatigued, never disturbed under
fire. The dear old fellow survived the
war for many years, dying at a ripe old
age in 1879. No matter how long we
might be parted-once for nearly foul
years-he always recognized me the mo-
ment we met again and in his own way
showed his pleasure at seeing me. Even
ON the day of his death, which was
painless one, he still attempted to rise
and greet me, but, unable to do so, he
would lean his head against me and lick
my hand No soldier ever had more
faithful horse than had in Daniel
Webster. Our Animal Friends.

EAST RIVER BRIDGE.

The New Suspension Structure Which VIII
Unite New York and Brooklyn.
Work on the biggest suspension bridge
in Che world is already begun, and in a
short time men will be labOring far be-
low the surface Of the waters Of the
East river, burrowing their way down
to the solid rock beneath the rivers
bottom. They will work in air COM
pressed half pound beyond the normal
pressure for every foot they get down
below the surface OF the water until at
length they vial breathe an atmosphere
with pressure of 361s pounds more to
the square inch than the atmosphere at
the earths surface. This must be done
in order to lay the foundations for the
piers of the Williamsburg bridge
Over in Williamsburg, where North
Second street comes down to the river
men are hurrying to completion the
two great caissons on which the Brook
Ign towers of the new bridge will rest
They will be the highest bridge towers
in the world, rising 335 feet above the
rivers surface. The masonry part rest
ing far below on the solid rock and the
concrete filled caissons, will rear itself
30 feet above the water, and from the
masonry will spring up the gigantic
steel towers. The Brooklyn bridge is far
and away the largest suspension bridge

ture has penetrated even to regions in

new bridge will be 60 feet higher than
those Of the Brooklyn bridge.
The entire length of the structure
will be 1900 feet, or over 1000 feet
more than that of the Brooklyn bridge
Even the central span will be longer in
the new bridge by five feet The width
of the Brooklyn bridge is So feet. That
of the Williamsburg bridge will be 11S
feet. There are two tracks and two
roadways ON the Brooklyn bridge. On
the Williamsburg bridge there will be
two roadways and six tracks, four for
trolley cars and two for elevated rail
roads. The bridge itself will cost about
81, 500, 900, and the real estate which
will have to be condemned in New
York and Williamsburg for the ap-
proaches will cost more than the bridge.
The Brooklyn bridge cost 50, 900, 900
for the structure itself. The cost of the
land condemned for the approaches was
not SO great as it will be for the Will
liamsburg bridge. The proximity of
high land on both sides at the point Of
crossing of the Brooklyn bridge obviated
the necessity of prolonging the ap-
proaches, SO it was not necessary to buy
SO much land, and real estate was
cheaper when the Brooklyn bridge was
begun than it is now anyway.

The reason for the bounty is not hard
20 understand, when you know that
these seals livs on fish, and that they
have the most wonderful appetites
known. 1t has been proved by expert
ments that seal with normal appetite
will eat from 20 to 25 pounds of fish a
day, and it can be seen that at this rate
it does not take a very large number of
seals to produce a fish famine of no
small proportions. Some one who is in
a position to make a gold estimate says
there are along the coast of Essex coun-
ty 1000 seals at least, and these, figuring
25 pounds of fish a day for each seal,
would use up 9,125. 600 pounds of fish in
the year, or enough to supply 175,0OO per-
sons with four fishballs every Sunday
through the entire year. This only repre-
sents a small part of the fish which
would be consumed by the Massachu-
sets seals in the course of the year, as
they are thick all along the south shore
until the sand begins at the head Of the
cape.
