who has about dozen guns and rifles
and a half dozen dogs, not to speak
of hunting suits innumerable and
divers sporting paraphernalia. II was
after wild turkeys in a gulch where it
was said gang of nine or ten had their
rendezvous. I was prowling through
thicket when ! heard 'em. There they
were all together eating something.
Whatever they were feeding on, it I.
brought their necks all in bunch and
my heart bounded with exultation. Il
took careful aim at those necks and let
fly with both barrels from my shotgun. &
Well, sir, it knocked everyone over, SO
closely had they been standing together.

that ought to have flushed 'em first.

A Murderous Attack.

j. kirkpatrick, station agent at
Floodwood, st. Louis county, u small
station on the Duluth, Superior and
Western railroad was dangerously and
probably fatally stabbed by lumber
jack named Hall. Kirkpatrick had a
dispute with the man over some trife
and thought the matter was at an end
when Hall left the depot. He was not
out long before he returned and started
to talk the matter over in conciliatory
manner. On arising to leave the Office
he proffered his hand to Mr.. Kirkpat-
rick to bind the matter, and at the
same time drew knife and stabbed
the agent several times in the breast.
Hall was arrested at once.

he came up smiling with an amended
bill and passed 1t with only three mega
tive votes. The most important amend
mont was one making it non-applica-
bic to cities of $4,000 or less population.
This only leaves it applicable to four
cities In the state and the country SEN
ators were willing to support it so long
as it did not apply to their own locali-
ties. To avoid too strong opposition in
the large cities, the bill was amended
so that it applies to but few officials
outside Of the police and fremen. Now
the bill must run the gauntlet of the
house, and as that body is not desper-
ately strong on civil service, it may yet
go to the boneyard.
Senator Potter is evidently of the
opinion that existing national and state
laws do not give the colored man suffi-
Gent protection, and hence he offered
another civil rights bill, making dis
elimination on account of color mis-
demeanor and punishable by fine of
from $25 to 500. Another bill offered
might be termed an illustration of
Temperance morality" as applied to
'the other fellow" 1t provides that
when a town has voted no license, no
liquor shall be sold or given away in
that town, but liquor may be manu-
featured in that town in unlimited
quantities, to be sold elsewhere. A
bill to tax telephone companies per
cent on their gross earnings was cor
daily received by the senate.
Gov. Clough favored the house on
Saturday:with his second veto this ses-
sion. 1t was the bill authorizing the
licensing of transient dealers in mer-
chandise." The theory of the veto was
that that the bill makes it an injustice
to the regular, all the year around
dealers.
Civil rights must be in danger, for
the matter cropped out in the house as
we'll as in the senate. Representative
Gray introducing bill giving the col
ored man his rights in hotels, theater
and other public places. A strong
plea was made to reduce the penalty
on de linquent taxes from 10 to per
cent, but it failed.
Resolutions were adopted by the
house to investigate the charges against
the stock yards of the Twin Cities.
These charges are that shippers of
stock are charged enormous rates Tor
feed and thus compelled to sacrifice
their stock regardless of the condition
of the market.
Eight bills were passed. One of them
gives insurance companies organized
TO insure creameries, the right to do
business when they have secured 50
risks, aggregating 100000.

An Important Decision.

Judge Moer decided an important
test case at Duluth, in which is in
volved the question whether state min
eral leases include timber rights on
land, outside of what timber is neces-
sary for mining. The Republic iron
company, owner of the state mineral
lease of the school lands in 6s-1s, sued
the Moore & Kerr Lumber company,
which purchased the timber on the
same lands from the state, to recover
for timber already cut and to enjoin
the lumber company from cutting any
more. The state interviewed to protect
its right to sell timber on leased lands.
and considerable interest was taken in
the contest as it involves vast amount
of holdings in the county. Judge Moer
upheld the states claims and decided
that the state mineral leases do not
include timber.

For Pantry shelves.

Mice will not infest pantries where
pieces of gum camphor are laid about,
and Croton bugs fee from shelves
strewn with the coarse salt used to
freeze ice cream. The camphor should
be used only at night, and all cans and
boxes holding eatables should be care
fully covered, as otherwise it's pun

Topographic Survey.

A thorough topographic survey of
the Franklin group and the Ohio prop
erty at Virginia is now being made.
1t is understood that the work is being
done for the Illinois Steel company,
which has the intention of buying all
these properties. This is thought to be
the reason for the recent suspension Of
mining operations at the Franklin. It
is also said that the Illinois company
is about to make deal for tho pur-
chase of the Pioneer mine at Ely on
the Vermillion range.

A Huge Block Of Granite.

The mammoth granite base to tho
Hans Christian Anderson monument
nearly six feet square and weighing
over ten tons, was completed for the
second time in st. Cloud. The surface
of the great granite block, entailing
polishing surface of 81 square feet, was
executed by Holes Bros. The stone
forms the base to the Danish-American
monument, erected to the memory of
Hans Christian Anderson, and was to
have been unveiled last fall in the city
of Chicago, had not the accident &C.
Cured, which necessitated the cutting
of new base stone.

Found Guilty.

William Rankin, who was found
guilty of trying to extort SIS through
the mails, has to pay dear for his vcn-
lal offense. He was sentenced by the
federal court to 60 days imprisonment
and fine of 5000. AS he is without
funds, this means sentence of at least
80 days. At the expiration of 80 days,

take oath that he is debtor without
funds, he will be released.

HE WAS "AGIN" THE DOG LAW.
And Representative Cox Proflted by
Finding 1t Out.

And Representative Cox PrOflted by
Finding 1t Out.
''In one of my races for congress-
said Representative Cox, of Tennessee,
1.-THE lines were drawn tight between
my competitor and myself and the par
tisans of both were worked up to
pitch of excitement in every county in
the district. In some localities a good
deal of bad feeling had been engen-
dered and personal difficulties were
daily expected. One day when was
filling an appointment to address the
people tall, heavy-built fellow, with
bad eye and a general look as if he
were out for blood, came up to me and
said in a loud and positive tone:
"'Cox, I want to have a little talk
with YOU
II knew that he was an active sup
porter of my opponent and also that he
was a man of determined character.
Wondering what he had to say to me
and withal being a little anxious on
account of his rough, not to say threat
ening manner, I walked away with him
to some little distance from the crowd.
L ACA oIOppCu dAu CO1u llu was Icduy
to hear anything he had to say.
See here, Cox, am going to put
plain question to you and if you answer
it square everything will be all right
between us; # you don't everything
will be all wrong. Now, if you will
promise me to vote ag'in that - dog
law, will vote for you and make all my
friends support you. Is it a bargain?'
II assured him that if there was one
measure that hated worse than any
other it was that odious dog law and
that when I got to Washington I'd fight
it to the death. He kept his promise
and, as afterward heard, worked loyal
~ to help elect me. I don't know
whether or not he got more light on
the subject subsequently and discov-
cred that it was the Tennessee legisla-
ture, instead of congress, that had juris-
diction over the dog law but, anyway,
if he ever found out his mistake he
didn't reveal the fact to noe."-Washing-
