Died From M. Injuries.

Frank Benlf. the trammer, who SUI
fered such terrible injuries in anexplosion
ar the Tamarack Junior last Tuesday
night, succumbed TO his injuries at the
Tamarack Hospital yesterday afternoon.
At the time OF the accident thephysicians
pronounced his Injuries fatal and did not
expect him to live any length OF time.
However, he rallied and held on for a
few days although death was hourly ex-
pected. The remains were removed TO
his former boarding place at No. 6lO
Pine street Yesterday. The deceased was
not married and was powerful man
physically, which accounts for his being
able to sustain the severe injuries he did
and live as long afterward. He was a
member OF st. Johns society and the
funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon
at st. Joseph's church on Eighth street.
At the same time the funeral of the late
Louis Turk, who was killed at Hecla
last Thursday night will be held. This
will be in charge OF st. Joseph's society
OF which the deceased was a member and
the two funerals Will be held at the same
church at the same time. The Austrian
band will attend. The remains OF the
two men will be inferred at the Hecla
cemetery

tsOideu VISIONS.

The Detroit Journal lately contained
an account OF how two lads OF Lansing
were, after reading accounts OF the for
tunes made by the discoveries in the
golden regions OF Klondyke, so fascinat-
ed that they packed up their traps and
started for California. One of them left
note for his parents telling of their in
tentions and that they hoped TO make
money enough during the winter to carry
them next spring to the gold regions.
Two lads of this place borrowed wheels
last Thursday afternoon, presumably
Tor the purpose of taking n short ride,
but as nothing has been heard OF them
since, some suppose their heads have
been turned by the fascinating stories of
fortunes made at klondyke, assisted by
reading books about boy adventures,
and that they also have gone to seek
their fortunes, although it is not likely
they will travel very far without being
sent back. Another boy from Albion,
Michigan, has taken horse and gone
from home on apparently the same

His View of the Polite
Treatment He Re-
ceived
At the Boston Clothing House
Park Next Tuesday Afternoon
and Evening.

| To the Editor-In your issue OF yester
day, July %, noticed an item written
under "An Investigation Necessary, y
wherein the manager of the Bosting
Clothing house has a great deal to say
about me and the rest OF the police force
OF this place. Now why attack the off,
GERS after what we have donefor him, il not

information as to who took his goods;
all that could get from him was, show

clothes on the street." very sensible
thing TO ask an officer. | made all the
inquiry that could about the last man
| who was in his store tryi to buy
goods and | found that the man was in
his bed before the manager left the store.
In the last instance, as soon as the theft
was reported to me, which was about 10
O'Clock in the forenoon, and by O'Clock
in the afternoon, | had ten pair of pants,
ten vests and one PAIR of shoes back TO
his store and two days later | got him
two coats, two vests and two pair OF
pants, which we're hid in the timbers on
the old base bali ground. Now, in re-
gard to teaching politeness, | think that
should be started right in the Boston
clothing house, for with all the tramping
around to get what clothes | could for

This, think, is politeness TO perfection.

Boston clothing man wants after the

we could do for him and then to come TO
me and ask why | can't see the man

II he can see som cone wearing his goods
that he claims to be stolen; he might

none OF the officers any credit for all the
goods that have been returned to him.
It is due to the officers of this town and
to Deputy Sheriff Wills that he got
back what he did and then this very po-
lite man never thanked one of us for what
was done. F. WARD, Marshal.
When the marshal called at the NEWS
Office to hand in the above he met Mr..
Lenhoff, manager OF the Boston store,
who had called to relate the manner he
was treated by the mashal last evening.
Mr.. Lenhoff informs US that Mr.. Ward
called at the store last evening and
after abusing him roundly gave
it as his opinion that Officer Murphy was
correct when he said he believed the rob-
berry was gotten up to obtain some cheap
notoriety and free advertising for the
store, which statement he repeated in the
News office. 1t won d scarcely look Az
if the officers displayed much, if any,
judgment in making such remarks unless
they are ready to back them up with
something further than their own ideas
and faDcles.

The emotional life OF horse Is remark
able. There are Instances on record where
the death of the horse has been traced di
rectly To grief One instance Is called to
mind which occurred more than 20 years
ago A circus had been performing I'm the
little town of Unionville, Pa, when one of
the trained horses sprained one OF his legs
SO that he could not travel. He was taken
to the hotel and put i'm "a box stall. The leg
was bandaged, and he was made as COM
Portable as possible.
He ate his food and was apparently con-
tented until about midnight, when the
circus began moving out of town. Then he
became restless and tramped and whinnied.
AS the caravan moved past the hotel he
seemed to realize that he was being desert
sd, and his anxiety and distress became
pitiful. He would stand with his ears
pricked in an attitude of intense listening,
and then, as his ears caught the sound of
the retiring wagons, he would rush as best
he could with his injured leg from one
side of the stall To the other, pushing at
the door with his nose and making every
effort To escape. The stableman, who was
a stranger to him. tried to soothe him,
but TO no purpose. He would not be COM
forted
Long after all sounds of the circus had
ceased his agitation continued. The sweat
poured from him in streams, and he quiv
cred in every part of the body. Finally the
stableman went TO the house, woke up the
proprietor and told him he believed the
horse would die if some of the circus
horses were not brought back To keep him
company. Atabout daylight the proprietor
mounted a. horse and rode after the circus
de overlook il 10 or 12 miles away, and
the groom who had charge of the injured
horse returned with him. When they reach
I'd the stable, the horse was dead.
The stableman said that he remained for
nearly an hour perfectly still and with ev-
cry sense apparently strained to the ut
most tension, and then without making n
sign, fell and died with scarcely n strug.
gle The veterinarian who was called re-
marked after the circumstances were told
him that unquestionably the horse died
from grief. If 1t is possible for all the men,
tai faculties of the horse to become aban-
doned TO grief to such an extent as to cause
death, how much more does he appeal to
the sympathy and regard Of mankind

QUIZ democratic friends will work
themselves into a frenzy over the Sc
lection of Il. G.. Platt-the man with
the best executive ability of any in
the state of New York-to be repnb-
lican senator from the empire state,
and will tell the people how the
republican party is absolutely con
trolled by "bosses" and "machines." "
But they will say nothing about the
throwing down of Madden in Illinois,
even though the powerful Cook
County organization was at his back.
The fact of the matter is, the repub-
lican party is very apt to select the
best men, whether or not there is
any organization other than popu-
lar sentiment working in their in
terest.

A four in hand waited for US at the door,
to drive us to the camps, where saddle
horses would be given us IL we desired
them. The vehicle was one Of those in
which the front wheels turned round under
the front of the body, and the interior Of
the body was seated and covered with
home dressed horsehide. The whip was
horsehide, and the pace WAS run, trot
ting being unknown.
1t was pace for experience Rising in
his seat, the driver made his whip whistle
through the air. like reed pipe sounding,
and then he brought 1t down on the fanks
of his team. The animals gave a leap
which assuredly tried every Joint in the
hide and chain harness. wondered why
the nags did not start at the whistle of the
whip (like the South African steeds do,
thus escaping quite a good deal OF the
blow) Away we sped, faster and ever
faster, across the pampas. The peon driver
displayed great skill in keeping the four
horses together, there being no pole to the
wheelers, and each horse being geared and
run independent, like the Huskics To dog
sleigh In northern Canada
Nor was less skill needed to avoid the
cattle wallows which could only be dis
tinguished by the color Of the grass
In something less than is minutes the
team was pulled up, the harness dragged
of, the horses allowed to stray or do AS
they please. On my asking IL they would
stray too far, our host said "Oh, no. They
can go where they please. We seldom use
team more than once to the house and
back, just to keep the driven strain In
them. Outing.
