It WAS NOT POISONING
Cerebro Spinal Meningitis the
Cause of the Death.
REVEALED BY AUTOPSY
There Was No Evidence OF Ptomaine
Poisoning-No Cases Found Among
Others Who Used the
Same Milk.

Yesterdays developments in the sup
posed mysterious poisoning case in the
family of German Chouinard were of
a rather surprising nature. inasmuch
as they make it appear now that poison
had nothing to do with the sickness in
the family, from which one child died
and two others lay critically i'll, whereas
the day before there seemed little room
to doubt that the one child died from
poisoning and that the sickness of the
others resulted from the same cause.
Coroner Julien ordered an autopsy
yesterday and had the the body of the
child removed to Sherman's undertake
ing rooms for the purpose. The autop-
sy was performed by DR.. ]. P. Sheeran,
the county physician, and at his invita-
ton DR. j. A. Tremblay was present
during the operation. A very thorough
examination was made and at it's con-
clusion DR.. Sheeran reported to Coroner
Julien that he had found no evidence
of death having been produced from
poisoning. DR.. Sheeran stated that he
found the stomach liver and intestines,
to all appearances, in a perfectly
healthy condition, but he had found the
brain and spinal cord terribly inflamed
and congested indicating that the child
had suffered from cerebro spinal menin-
gifts, and in his Judgment there was
no doubt this was what produced death.
DR.. Tremblay coincided with Dr. Shee-
ran in his views of the case. Both doc
tors stated that they found no evidences
of ptomaine poisoning, which was be-
lieved to have been the cause of death
by the physicians who saw the sick
children, but as it was possible the
stomach might have contained poison
which could not be detected except by
chemical or microscopical analysis, the
organs were all removed and preserved
for such analysis in the event that
course should be decided upon. AS the
doctors who made the autopsy We're
very sure of their ground, however, it
is hardly likely Coroner Julien will
consider such an analysis necessary,
though an inquest will be held to-mor-
row evening in order to make the find
ings of the autopsy a matter of record.
Health Officer W. M. Shultz, upon
learning yesterday that it was suspect
ed that death had occurred from a
poison contained in, milk, directed SAM
tary Policeman Tobin of the health de-
partment to make an investigation,
which he did, and found that the Chou
inard family bought milk CT two milk
men, who, Mr.. Tobin found, distribute
ed milk to about 200 families on the
south side of town. This being the
case, the ptomaine poison theory would
seem to be dispelled, since no such cases
were found among the other families
who use the same milk as could hard
ly have been the case had there been
such germs in the milk. unless he
change set in after the milk was left al
the Chouinard home, which, though
possible, is not probable.
The other children of the family were
much improved yesterday and it is
now thought they both will recover.

ands, Any American 10y Has More Fun.
Sumshere Jung is the name of the
young king of Nepal, one of the strang-
est governments and countries in the
world. 1t lies between Thibet and In
dia, and contains the highest mountains
of the Hottest of the earth's ranges the
Himalayas. This little king has 10O,0 900
of the best warriors in the continent of
Asia at his back, and it is therefore
easy for him to command the respect
of all the neighboring tribes and gov-
ernments. Even the English remain on
friendly terms with him and hire some
of his soldiers to help them conquer the
Hindus. The people of Nepal are a
strange mixture of races.
The ruling tribes are the Ghoorklas,
whose proves has given them the SUI
premacy. They are of Aryan stock,
whittier than the Hindus, and despise all
arts save that of war. The religion of
the different tribes varies between
Buddhism and Brahmanism, but not
much of what we would call civilization
is to be found there. The capital city is
Kathmandu, where the rajah or king
lives in queer palace made up of a
large number of small pagodas sur
rounded by shrines erected to the Hin
du gods. These are often smeared with
the blood of the sacrifices brought to
the GODS giving most savage appear
ance to the palace 'environs.
Of course, this rajah is too young now
to do the actual ruling, which is in the
hands of his chief minister, but the
power of the ruler is absolute and he
can order life or death for any one who
displeases him. The people are so
afraid of foreign influences that they
will not permit Europeans to even en-
ter their dominions, so it has been i'm
possible to survey the country and as
certain the height of the mountains,
which tower thousands of feet in the
air. The Chepangs, one of the tribes,
live in a savage state, in huts made of
branches, and eat wild fruits or the ami
mails that they hunt. Another tribe, the
Mechs, is famous for it's beautiful wo-
men, who are in such great demand
that their parents are enriched by the
prices paid for them. For wives are
openly bought by the highest bidder,
The Thibetan Llamas have made many
converts in Nepal. and have a great
Buddhist temple three miles from the
city. Sumshere Jung is king over many
thousands of human beings, but any
little American boy will have much
more that is worth living for than he.

John Hays early and later careers were
bound together by one common motive
to do his duty in that state of life into
which it pleased God to call him. He is
now secretary of state, he once was a
"chore boy" but he was always a bond
man to duty. The following anecdote. as
ISOLATED with the homely life of his boy
hood, contains this valuable lesson: Act
we'll your part. there all the honor lies"
When John Hay was boy he was a
regular attendant of the Presbyterian
Sunday school at Warsaw, III. The les
sons consisted partly of committing to
memory Bible verses, and to attain SUI
premacy in this task created a strong ri
valry among the scholars. John Hay was
sure to come out ahead by several an
swers, causing those of his comrades who
were always behind to regard him with
envy.
Consequently, when some of the boys
heard that John had to wash dishes and
do the churning for his mother, and more
than all, that he wore an apron while at
these duties, they fairly crowed.
One morning it was agreed by his COM
rades TO get him out of doors while he
had his apron on and humiliate him by
having two or three girls whom he rather
liked ask him questions in regard to his
Homework.
Young Hay came out where the boys
were and answered the questions by say
ing that he washed dishes as his mother
taught him. and then, with twinklng
eyes, he gave the dshpan which he had
with him tremendous fling, contents
and all, drenching whoever happened to
be near enough, and laughing loudly ran
into the kitchen. Hay and his big apron
were never molested after that.

James J. HILL president of the Great
Northern road, has secured control of
the st. Paul & Duluth road through
purchase of the property The au-
thority for this statement is considered
good. 1t was recently announced that
the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul peo-
pie had placed a corps of surveyors in
the field for the purpose of surveying
line from st. Paul to Duluth. This
was regarded at the time as a ruse to
depress the St Paul & Duluth so that
it might be acquired as cheaply as pos
sible by the Milwaukee road When
the Northern Pacific announced April
1 that hereafter it proposed to compete
for Twin City business, it was taken as
an indication that the Northern Pa
citic intended helping the Milwaukee
acquire the st. Paul & Duluth prop
erty, or that the Northern Pacific itself
expected to acquire the short line be-
tween st. Paul and Duluth.
The announcement that the Great
Northern has absorbed the line comes
as a surprise, for it had not been
thought that the St. Paul & Duluth
possessed any attraction for the Hill
system. The only conclusion is that
Mr.. Hill must have regarded it to his
interest to own the st. Paul & Duluth
rather than have it fall into the hands
of the Milwaukee or the Northern Pa
cifc systems.
The surveying party for the Milwau-
kee system still continues it's work and
it is now quite probable that Duluth
will have still another line from the
Twin Cities.
On account of Hills active interest in
the Baltimore & Ohio, reports are re-
newed of a st. Paul-Chicago connec-
ton. These are unfounded, as Hill pre-
fers to send his heavy business by his
lake line. The Baltimore & Ohio won't
do anything to hurt that.

Western Passenger association was in
session on Monday considering the COM
mission question, and it was discovered
that conditions are just about as bad
as they we'll can be. 1t was deter
mined, therefore, to make another eff
fort to reorganize the association and
TO get as many lines as possible into
the organization.
To that end call has been sent out
not only to every line which is now
member of the organization, but to all
others whose interests are in any way
connected with the passenger business
of the West, asking for a general meet
ing, to be held at headquarters, April
26. Since the executive officers of these
roads have combined together in a de-
cided effort to keep freight rates on a
firm basis and to prevent all sorts of
rate cutting and discrimination, it is
the belief that little difficulty will be
experienced in forming passenger as
ISOLATION that will be of some value
While the executive officers in their
conferences with the interstate COM
merce commissioners or among them
selves did not consider passenger traf-
tic, the conditions which they seek to
create in freight circles will be equally
as important in the passenger business,
and little doubt is expressed but they
Will issue orders to passenger men to
cooperate with each other and to keep
rates upon a firm basis.

How to Perform the Work WstA0.t
Inturing or Everlastfngly
Frightening the Sheep. :

I will offer the following suggesaoa
professionals may smile, but this ID
not intended for them), writes w. b.
Vestal in an exchange. First you want
a smooth table about four feet wide
and three feet high. The planks must
be planed SO that the wool will not
cling to them. Lay the sheep up with
belly to the front strap, head down with
bell collar, then with 'jocky stick"
about four and half feet long, with
soft lace leather strings at each end;
tie the hind feet to one end and the
lower front to the other; commence
shearing at the fore arm; cut line
from the front flank to the rear flank
and down the ham. Keep the fleece roll
ing back until you are past the line of
the backbone; by pulling the front
leg backward you will have smooth
sailing over the shoulder and half way
up the neck. Shear the belly to a point
opposite the place of beginning. This
can be done by raising the stick and
gently leaning against it to keep the
feet up. Now release the head and
ohCoA uOWuWdIu, TIC uCcCc DIT
the throat so the fleece when off will
be all in one piece like pelt. By lean
ing against the table, with the head
under your left arm, you will shear the
neck, breast and most of the shoulder
before turning over. To turn pull well
forward, tuck fleece close to back, then
steady the head with left hand and with
the right grasp the stick midway and
gently raise the feet and roll him over
the fleece "a good soft bed), strap down
head, turn the fleece back and you will
have clear sailing to the finish, with
fleece unbroken, sheep unhurt from
struggling and the boy having good
time fishing at the brook. And now let
me say a word to you about that boy

FACTS FOR FARMERS.

Don't expect frst-class oats from
second-class seeds.
Keep the work on the farm we'll in
hand. Never let it get control of you.
Mix brains, common sense and muscle
in about equal parts and success is GER
tain.
Corn is good for night feed and for
sitting hens, as it maintains bodily
heat.
Good help on the farm is the cheapest,
upon the same principle that good
article is always the cheapest.
Smut increases from year to year if
the land on which it makes it appear
ance is used for the same crop.
Make your plans to include good
large garden next year. There's money
in the garden and good health, too.
Resolve not to let cookie, ,thistles,
docks or any other specially-annoying
plant go to seed on your farm this sea-
son.
Debt makes the pillow harder to hold
and causes the victuals to be less palata-

possible.
Boiled potatoes and boiled peas,
