Bert Arnstein, an insane patient at
the st. CroiX County Asylum, killed
Antoine Sorenson, an attendant, a
week ago Friday at New Richmond
Sorenson had commenced work that
morning at the Asylum and while di-
recting number of the insane who
were at work grubbing trees, Arm
stein, one Of these workmen, struck
SOrenson on the head with an ak.
This is a very deplorable affair but no
blame seems to attach to the authori-
ties and in fact the Board of Control
exonerate the management from any
impitatiOn Of fault. Indeed acct
dents are expected to result among
these irresponsible patients, and
there is always more or less danger of
violence in attending insane people.
II is the first instance of fatal acct
dent that has occurred at that insti-
tuition. Insane people are not amen
able to the ordinary rules of action.
Arnstein told of the killing with ap-
parent unconcern aud laughed about
st, manifesting no regret or sorrow.

Co. so" 18th Inf, Rom blon, P. 1.

Some of these modern fads are be-
wildering and senseless. This "socie-
ty'' idea Of writing letter by going
backwards in order to get ahead is
confusing to the reader. A man re-
Gently wrote will in that manner in
the state of New York and the courts
decided against it's validity. The
testator wrote the will on three sides
Of folded paper, commencing on the
first page and ontinuing on the third
page and completing and signing the
instrument on the second page. The
court disallowed the provisions OF the
will holding that the document was
not signed at the physical end, as
required by the statute. The court
of appeals sustained the decision. The
law does not contemplate going back
wards in order to get forward, and the
law is based on good sense, while many
fads are not.

From the Black Hills mining
Review" of Feb. 5, 1900, we CLEAN the
following concerning W. d. Parker,
Jr., formerly Of this city;
1.-The Mining Review has been watch
ing with great deal Of interest, the
experiments that have been in progress
for several months with the treat
ment of ore by the cyanide process.
Messrs. W. d. Parker, Jr., and 0. W.
Brown Of Deadwood are two of the
most energetic workers in the cyanide
experiments, and il is principally
through their efforts that the process
has attained the state of perfection
that it has. Mr.. Parker has made the
tests on the different ores at the old
Hildebrand stamp mill at GayVille.
These experiments have embraced
ores from nearly every camp in the
Northern Black Hills, and from a
mum Der of mines and prospects ia the
central and southern hills. Ores
carrying s5 gold per ton can be treat
ed by this process and pay nice
profit. When it Is understood that
great amounts of ore that bore
$5 to Sl5 per ton have, during
many years OF the Black Hills mining
been thrown on the dump" as too
lean or too refractory for reduction
by known methods the economic i'm
portance of Mr.. Parker's application
OF the cyanide process may be i'm
agined; we hope he will secure share
of the profit from the application of
the new process"

A Sad Accident.

A very deplorable accident occurred
Friday that resulted in the death of a
little son of Mr.. and Mrs. Q. f. En-
sign of Kininickinnic and left great
gloom in a home where there had
been sunshine. As Mr.. and Mrs. En-
sign, before starting for town Friday
afternoon had sent their two youngest
boys, Ralph, aged about s years, and
Irwin, who would have been 3 the
18th of the coming September to the
home of their daugter, Mrs. Florence
Cederholm, a half mile away.
Had the boys told their sister that
their father and mother had gone TO
the city she would have detained
them with her until night. The lit
tie boys after staying an hour or so at
their sisters went home, found the
key to the door and went into the
house and got an old revolver. While
the older boy tried TO fire the revolver
Irwin ran around in front OF the
weapon TO see it go off and Ralph dis
charged the pistol just as the little
boy was in front of him. The bullet
passed through the child's forehead
above the right eye. He seems to
have lived an hour after the shooting
and was conscious until the last.
The funeral was held at the home
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock, con
Quoted by Rev. VIM. Gill. The fam
lily have the sympathy of all their ac-
quaintances in this sorrowful eX-
