Office March 4, 1893, there was an

Entitled to Charge For Each Warrant
Served in Minnesota.
ST. PAUL, June 1.-THE supreme
court through Justice Buck, rendered a
decision affecting sheriff's fees, which
will no doubt give much satisfaction to
the sheritfs of the state. Andrew Steen-
erson, sheriff of Polk county, put in a
claim against the county for mileage in
serving ~ bench warrants. The total
amount of the mileage claimed was
3,ls2 miles. Each bench warrant was
issued against one individual, and in
making service upon them the sheriff
made ID distinct trips. He charged full
mileage for each bench warrant,
although he served from 3 to II of each
trip. The lower court refused to allow
mileage except for trips actually made,
but the supreme court o%verrules the
decision.

Speaking OF law and the enforcement

I consider exceedingly important not

a very intelligent and ingenious man.
He got acquainted last year with a she
bear. who used 10 come 10 his house
every day and walk into the kitchen for
food for herself and her TWO cubs. The
cubs never came The keeper got on
very intimate terms with the bear, VIVA
was always civil and well behaved and
would take food from his hand without
taking the hand
One day toward sunset the bear came
10 the kitchen, and, having received ner
portion. she went out Of the back door
TO carry it TO her cubs. To her sur
prise and anger, the cubs were there
waiting for her She laid down the
food and rushed al her infants and gave
them a rousing spanking She did not
cuff them: she spanked them" and then
she drove them back into the woods
cutting them and knocking them al
every step. When she reached the spot
where she had told them 10 wait, she
left them there and returned 10 the
house. And there she staid in the
kitchen for two whole hours, making
the disobedient children wait for their
food, simply 10 discipline them and
teach them obedience.
