'ause Two Horses to Die of

AN act of cruelty was perpetrated I'M
on TWO horses owned by James Madi-
gan, a contractor, living at Az Fact

unknown miscreant who delfbera tell,

until discovered by their owner yester,
Gay morning, when the nails were
drawn from their hoofs.
Inc inhuman deed is believed to have
peen an act Of revenge, though Mr.
Madlgan says he has no enemies NOR
any idea Of who could have taken such
a nend1sh manner Of injuring him
1noffending dumb animals.
The nails were driven, one in each
left fore foot of the horses. lust be-
SIDE the frog, and penetrated the en-
tire thickness Of the hoof. An effort
was made to hide the nails under the
frog, so that while it was apparent by
the painful whining of the animals
and the uplifted feet that they were
lame, the cause could not be discov-
cred
A nail, however, had been bent by
the brute welding the hammer and
was discernible upon a close tnspec-
ton Of the hoof. 1t was drawn out
and another nail found in the hooi
or the second horse, though 1t could
not be pulled out until a portion OF
the hoof was cut away.
Both horses were in agony yesterday
afternoon, despite the ministrations Of
a veterinary surgeon, who informed Mr..
Madigan that the animals were like
ly to die from lockjaw. The team is
valued at 5000. Three other horses in
the barn were not molested

HAVE MINUTES TO BURN.
Central Somerset w. C. IT. u. Sep
arates before the Union Was
Really Completed.

The Central-So Somerset w. c. T. U. Is
a thing of the past; in fact 1t is some
! thing which never existed, and the
women who thought themselves men,
bers of the combination of unions are
in doubt as to just what to do with the
minutes of the one meeting of the union
which never was, whether to burn them
up in the Commons furnace or place
them with the state Historical society
as evidence that women should have
suffrage.
For several weeks the thing which
has been agltating local w. c. T. U.
workers has been the proposed union of
the Somerset and Central societies
The Somerset union appointed com :
mittee to meet with the Central union
and bring the matter of consolidation
before it.
The Central union in the meantime
had called meeting and the same mat
ter came up, the wishes of the Somerset
union having made known to it's mem
bers. The matter war warmly discussed
some of the older members being very
bitter in their refusal to listen to any
such a scheme. But the matter rested
till the meeting, when the two unions
should come together and discuss the
matter.
At this meeting the consolidation was
supposedly projected, no officers, how
ever, having been elected for the new
society.
And that is where the trouble began.
After that meeting some of the mem
bers of both unions hunted up neglected
copies of the constitution and discover
ed that they could not consolidate
without both unions having disbanded
and new officers been elected. Further
more, as the last meeting was called
by the Central union the members of
the Somerset had no right to vote.
AT the Joint meeting OF the two
unions at the Commons yesterday af-
ternoon the matter was discussed thor
ougfly and the general verdict was
that very few Of the members Of either
union cared for the consolidation after
all, and the best way out of the whole
matter was to quietly withdraw from
each others field and go on as before
as two distinct societies.
Mrs. Morrison, chairman Of the Jail
work, made a most eloquent plea for
more harmonious work among the
women and said:
Don't let us clasp hands unless we
do it in Gods name"
Mrs. Upham, of the Somerset union,
said:
You can rest assured that you will
never hear from us again on this sub
ject"
motion was made to reconsider the
motion to Join forces and was passed.
And so the matter was dropped prob
ably forever.

WANTS A CHANGE OF VENUE.
Attorney Butts VIII Ask to Have
the Selma CIewett Case Tried
Elsewhere.

Selma Clewett and her attorney,
Charles Butts, do not believe that an
impartial jury can be secured in Ram
sey county to try Miss Clewett's suit
against the House of the Good Sbep-
herd.
They want a change of venue.
The Clewett case is the first on the
calendar for this term. When Judge
Lewis called it yesterday forenoon, Mr.
Butts stood up and said:
Continued
But Gen. Clapp, with whom Mr.
Butts had exchanged glances just be-
fore, arose and said:
Your honor. we don't want this case
continued over the March term. We
are ready to go to trial again, and at
once
Mr.. Butts, seeing that he had mis-
interpreted Gen. Clapp's nod, there
upon announced that he would move
for a change of venue.
The court set the case for trial on
March Il, subject to the plaintiffs mo-
ton for change of venue, which mo-
ton will be heard at special term next
Saturday.
Mr.. Butts did not indicate the county
that he thinks will furnish the most
impartial jury.

MAX HEINRICH's RECITAL.
Talented Artist Who Accompanies
Himself on the Piano

Max Heinrich, who has been engaged to
give song recital at the Peoples church on
the evening Of March Is, is one of the most
inimtable artists before the public.
He is a pronounced musician to his finger
tips, and he combines an artistic Temperament
with rare skill. BY some power be II leger-
demaln, hypnotsm or magnetism, he fairly
takes his audience into his arms. A rare gift
OF this talented artist is his ability to &C
company himself, which he does with unusual
finish ana ease. Even in songs and ac-
compartments that ordinarily require one
PERSONS undivided attention for either. he
sings and plays seemingly unconscious so
without apparent effort
Seated at the piano with face always in
clined to his audience, he fairly speaks out his
song.

After eating we lay back on our blank cts and talked and smoked. Bill was telling me stories of how they had run whisky mills in Circle and of snug gling in the outside whisky. He got out his pistol and began cleaning it. The old siX-shOoter had seen service with him as a cowboy and stage driver.

 Bill gave a low chuckle and then with broad smile at me. he said, You see, Brownie, we'll leave here at about noon tomorrow, and get to Circle City about one next morning. Everything will be quiet then and we'll land the stuff safe and sound.
 Next morning we were awakened by long dog train passing by the tent and headed for Fort Yukon. The team. had broken the trail for us all the way from Circle, so the rest of our trip was comparatively easy. Along about twelve that night the first log cabins of the western end of the town began to appear. Here Bill stopped the team and carefully tied up all the bells on the dogs collars. and then he strapped the big SiX-shooter to his belt Soon we were pulling up the road cut in the steep bank of the river
 Bill had quit swearing at the dogs now, and had hold of the leaders col lar, guiding him along past the cabins We moved in perfect silence, except for the slight crunching noise made by the runners of the sled passing over the frozen snow Now we were just ahout to pass the custom-house. and then on down to the saloon
 The noise of the steel runners seemed like the grinding of a sawmill in my ears. Bills right hand fondled the butt of his six-shooter.

 Miss Mary Victoria Letter and George Curzon were married in Wash ington on April 22, 1895. They went to England shortly afterWard. The life of the American girl there has been triumph. She entered into her hus- bands political life with enthusiasm. She helped him make the canvass when he stood for election. She entertained in London. He found her an 1nVaIua- ble aid to his ambition.
 As has been said George Curzon was looking forward to the day when he might become Premier of England. As he is only 39, mere infant in politics according to the British idea, he would have to wait a dozen years at least.

She quickly learned that women play an important part in English politics. She entered into 1t and became one of those power full unseen, unrecognized forces that surround Parliament.

CurZOn it was not believed that he would accept Many people thought that the office had not been placed at his disposal, for it is the first instance in which a vice royalty has been offered to a com mOner. But the announcement made in the House of Commons last Thurs day by MT. BaIfour has set all discus sion at rest, and the Manchester Guardian, a high authority, adds that it is an open secret that MT. CurZon accepted the place because his wife wanted him to.
 The position is more splendid, more important and more powerful than the wife of the President of the United States. Mrs. Curzon preferred real power over millions of subjects to the quiet honOrs of a great Parliamentary career for her husband. with Prime Ministership in the distance. So MT. Curzon takes himself out of the line of promotion to that great place.
