I didn't catch it all, sir, but the de-
tective mentioned the stain on your

the rooms. He said your explanation
satisfied him, and that he did not be-

cast out of the stern. keeping the bow
of the ship toward the shore in case they
should drift upon it. They had drifted
about $50 miles toward Malta. Some of
the sailors were acting meanly. trying
to escape themselves. but leaving ali
the others to their fate. But Paul said:
Except these abide in the ship ye can
not be saved" although he had prom
ised' that all should be saved. =
Finally all. at Paul's suggestion, took
food after he had blessed it. The ship
drew near to land, and. caught in the
sands. began to go to pieces: but by

Shore everyone escaped safely to land,

Outrageous
Murder.
1t is Perpetrated by the Minions of the
Law on Unarmed Miners.
DEPUTY SheriHs Shoot Into a Mob Of Strik
ers with Deadly Effect.

One of the most cowardly and outrage
Gus crimes in latter. day history was COM
mMted last week in western Pennsylvania.
A body Of $50 miners were on their
way to ioin the workers in the Latimer
mines whom they hoped to induce to
ioin the strikers ranks. They were met
by the sheriff of the county and 1Os de-
puties. He ordered them to stop. The
miners murmured, started to move for
ward and one of the strikers attacked
the sheriff by striking him with his fist
The sheriff became excited and at once
ordered his deputies to shoot. The hum
dred or more rifles belched forth their
deadly volley and cry OF dismay went
up from the miners as the men went
down before the storm Of bullets like
ten pins.
Twenty -one were counted among the
dead and fully forty were badly wounded.
The miners were entirely unprepared

MARSHALL LAND OFFICE.
Charge Of Corruption. Receiver Mathews
Invites an Investigation.

A dispatch to the Minneapolis Journal
from Marshall, dated the 18th, reads as
follows:
Ex- x-Governol Swineford, land cffice In
spector, has been in Marshall the past
week investigating a charge of corrup.
ton filed against the United States land
office at this place. Up to the present
time no one has appeared to back up the
charge and nothing las been done. The
register and receiver are very anxious
that the Investigation should be pushed,
and will either make the parties charg-
ing fraud prove it or make 1t warm for
them.
Mr.. Swineford was interviewed con-
ceEning the report from Washington con-
cerning the condition of the land Office
here, and he denies that he ever made
such report or even said anything that
would lead anyone to make such state
ment. A special to the Minneapolis
Times from. Washington claimed that
Mr.. Swineford made a report charging
Nj. Mathews, the receiver, with neglect
Of duty and that his Office was in bad
shape. The fact is, Mr.. Mathews is very
little IN the land Office, but he has
clerk who is there every day, and tile Of
flee is kept up to date.

A John Lind Anecdote. 8

A story regarding ex-Congressman
John Lind has just been made public
which not only reflects great credit upon
the gentleman, but is believed to be
unique IN its character. 1t runs as fol-
lows:
When Mr.. Lind was serving his last
term IN congress the bill providing for
making foreign steamship companies re-
sponsible for damage to flour in transit
was pending in the senate, having been
referred to the committee oh commerce.
The northwestern millers were very an
xious to secure the passage of the bill,
as they had suffered enormous losses
through the refusal Of the ,r,mship
companies to make good the damage
which had occurred to flour while being
transported to Europe. A very promi-
nent northwestern miller was sent to
Washington to advocate the enactment
of the bill into law, and to see that it
got a fair show at every stage of the
game. A good sized sum Of money was
raised to pay the necessary expenses.
The steamship companies were repre-
sented by some Of the ablest lawyers
from New York and Philadelphia. The
miller in charge of the bill was some,

SLEEPY EYE SCANDAL.
Well Known Sleepy Eye Man and Woman
Arrested IN Minneapolis.
They have Been Held to the Goth for q
Hearing on the Charge Of Adultery.

The Minneapolis Times of Friday
morning cont aimed the sensational news
that Mrs. Stephen G;lland, wife Of a
we'll known citizen Of Sleepy Eye, and
Andrew ]. Gilman, an aged and promi-
nent stockbuyer, also Of. Sleepy Eye,
had been arrested Thursday night at
apartments on Eighth South street by
#Supt. Chrisman Of the Chrisman detec-
tive agency, on charges Of adultery.
The arrest, says the Times report, was
made at the instigation Of Mr.. Gilland.
Mrs. Gilland ran away from her hus-
band about two weeks ago, came to
Minneapolis and brought with her all Of
the furniture. Gilman is also said to
have come to Minneapolis at the time Of
the disappearance, and the pair are al-
legged to have rented rooms at the Eighth
street house, where they were living as
man and wife when they were arrested.
Mrs. Gilland was accompanied by her
little child, which she took IN her cell
with her. $50.
The accused parties were botn ar
Iaigned in police court Friday morning
and dstheir cases set for September Goth;
both partles being released On their per-
sonal recognizance.
s. Gilman says that when he came 70
Minneapolis, he met Mn. Gllland, and,
knowing her we'll, went 70 her. house g

for reception of this sort and aside from
two little knives were devoid of arms
of any kind. rs
This fact is what makes the action Of
the sheriff and his deputies cowardly
and unnecessary murder.
The men had done nothing but violate
the injunction of some brainless Judge,
whose heart is as small as his head, and
who makes the mistake of thinking that
the welfare of mankind is centered in the
property Of few grinding corporations
who got him his job.
The minion who would execute the
; unreasonable orders of such Judge is
either a hired tool, who Would sell his
grandmother for a pittance, or a petty
! fool whom It isn't safe to have at large.
We understand he has been arrested
along with the rest of his deputies.
That's as it should be, and the, next
thing the outraged people of Pennsyl-
vania want to look for is . rope. Don't
stop to look for extenuating circumstan-
ces. There aren't any. The man who
will shoot his fellownen because some
court doesn't think it legal for strikers
to agitate among their fellow workmen
has got altogether too little Of human
feeling in him to beentltled TO live.

what discouraged at the array of talent
on the other side, and was in quandary
as to what to do in order to counteract
and meet it. Happening to mention his
dilemma to Minnesota. newspaper man,
that gentleman asked:
.Why don't you get John Lind to
make speech for the billg''
To this the miller replied
Idon't think Mr.. Lind knows much
about the questions involved. His at
tention has never been especially called
to them.'
The newspaper man was persistent,
however and, remarked:
s.Evidently you do not know Mr..
Lind He is informed on great many
questions which you do not suspect him
Of knowing anything about. !"
Nothing more was said at the time,
but the remarks Of the newspaper man
had made such q strong impression on
the mind Of the miller that he finally
went to Mr.. Lind and asked him to ap-
pear before the committee, which he did.
Mr.. Lind made most able and exhaust
i've argument and at its conclusion vas
warmly congratulated By those present.
The bill was favorably reported and fi-
nally passed the senate. Shortly after
wards the miller called upon Mr.. Lind
md after thanking him for his work il
behalf Of the measure, rendered him 3
check, the amount Of which il took i've

but cosrteously, declined the check NY

The miller then replied :

Mr.. Lind, while am sorry that you
cannot see your way clear to take this
cheek, feel bound to say that / think
you have adopted the correct policy.
Now,if you will come to Minneapolis
and open law office, we will give you
all the business you can attend to-

ing:
