Edwin johnson, the fourteen year
old son Of Hans Johnson. . tenant
on the Gillian farm. met with a
terrible accident last Wednesday
morning, and as result his scalp
was nearly torn from the top Of his
head.
Young Johnson, with another
party, was engaged in hauling ice
from the Minnesota river. He had
| . load On his wagon and was going
home He had been walking along
side of the load for some time, and
had concluded to ride. He stopped
the team and went to geton. As he
did so one Of the lines droppe and
the team started on quick jump.
Young Johnson slid from the wagon
and struck the ground so that the
rear wheel passed over his head
and tore the scalp loose all around
the forehead, from ear to ear.
The boy was picked up in an I'M
conscious condition and was taken
to the school house near by; where
DIR. Penhall of Morton was called
and dressed the wound. The Doc
tor was not sure whether the pa
tient would recover from the effects
of the accident or not, but stated
that the young mans nerve might
pull him through. He would not
allow him to be removed from the
school house aud last Friday after
noon the boy was doing as well as
could be expected.

affirming the order Of the lower
court il refusing new. trial. aud
on Feb. Is, 1890. Judge Webber pro-
nouDced the sentence Of eeath upon
Holden.
G. G. Wilson Of Rochester was one
Of Holden S ottorneys. During the
Legislative session Of 1889 the John
Day Smith law, requiring that all
cases Of capital punishment be car
ried into effect during the hours Of
night, was enacted After the death
sentence had been pronounced Mr..
Wilson contended that this was an
ex post facto law, enacted after the
crime had been committed, and pro-
duced greater punishment for his
client, and hence his client had a
right to be released He cited a
Colorado case to bear him out. The
case was. carried to the United
States Supreme court, but that body
decided that the John Day Smith
law added no additional hardship.
Gov. Merriam fixed the date for
hanging on Friday morning late in
March, or early in April. 1891.
Holden was brought up from New
Ulm on Thursday and everything
was readiness for his taking off.
But during that day Gov. Merriam
listened to Judge Baldwin Of this
city, one of the attorneys for Holden,
five O'Clock he wired sheriff Mead a
reprieve for 80 days. In the mean
time Albert Scheffer of St. Paul,
who had long been political enemy
of Gov. Merriam, was added to the
cabal for Communication of Holden S
sentence. Gov. Merriam saw his
chance to put Scheffer under politi-
cal obligation to him, and the sen
tence was committed to life impris-
Onment.

NO CONTESTS.
But a General Stampede for Br'er
Rabbit at Granite.


Ronaldo Theiring and Harry Laird
we're over to Granite Falls a week
ago last Saturday and Sunday, re-
turning on Monday. They went
over to visit with relatives and also
to take in an advertised coursing
contest, taking with them Laird s
Humboldt Girl and Fred. Theiring S
Leufer. The coursing meeting was
not particularly contest. The dogs
we're not slipped two by two, as is
the custom, but they were turned
loose and whenever a rabbit was
scared up the entire pack was
allowed to enter into the chase. In
this wise Humboldt iirl was quite
seriously injured, while Leu(er has
a number OF kills to her credit.
Put of the Granite Falls Tribune
did not take in the meeting, al
though he admits that he would
have enjoyed doing so. He fires
these random shots at the alleged
meeting.
We exceedingly regret not being
able to join the rabbit chasers on
Saturday, but our work would not
allow of it. Besides, we have no
horse and if we had one the chances
are that we would have been thrown
off and run over, incapacltatlng us
for getting out this edition Of the
paper. All things considered it
was perhaps well that we stayed
out of the game.
It is undoubtedly fine sport chas-
ing the festive jack-rabbit, but
when mud covers both ground and
flying horses and wheels throw it
over a person certain element of
such sport is lacking. but who
cares when all is excitement how
much mud is in the air.
Bv this time the fields seemed to
be full of rabbits and dogs were
chasing them pell-mell in every
direction, closing in on the game
and strewing the fields with the
dead.
Incidents of the exciting chase
were SO numerous that to give them
in detail would require book, but
fun there was and lots of it until
darkness drove the party to town
after having bagged about Is rabbits,
and as many more left on the ground
without scratch in peaceful posses
sion of the field.
Every available horse in town
was pressed into service either
under saddle or before buggies and
their condition on retuSping would
convince any one of the hot chase
they seemed to enjoy as well as
those who had them.
The famous Redwood dogs we're
here and did some wonderful sprint
ing and got their share Of the game,
developing phenomenal endurance
as well as scientific knowledge Of
the sport.

not to make comments was Miss
Atherton's curt reply.
Violets thoughts went back to an
incident in her childhood. Miss Ather-
ton had given orders to have the grass
on the little lawn mown. It was stud
ded with white DAISIES that had been
the very pride and delight of the child's
heart wlde-open dasies with golden
eyes: ard, when she saw them cut
down by the scythe, she cried bitterly
Miss Atherton was exasDerated II
waJ bad enough TO have a niece; il
vas worse still to have a niece given
10 sentimentality.
From that day, when Violet half
broke her heart over the dead DAISIES.
Miss AtheTton had done all in her
power to repress the girls imagination
instead OF training it; and the con
sequence was that it grew under this
repression, and not in the healthiest
fashion. 1t expended itself on ideali2-
ing the beautiful things around her.
strangely enough, however Violet
thoughts had never wandered to the
subject of love She did not sit by the
river, as some girls would have done.
and dream Of a possible lover, the
reason being that she had no young
girl friends, that she had read no love
stories, and very little poetry of a
sentimental kind. She revealed in the
pleasures of imagination she peopled
the woods and the glades, she saw
what was invisible TO other eyes; but
her thoughts had not yet wandered to
the subject of love.
Miss Anterior was passee now, but
long years before she had her romance,
she remembered even now the pleasure
and the pain of it. The same pain,
she was determined, should never
pierce the heart Of her niece. There
fore she carefully selected her friends
and supervised the books that she read
and the pictures she saw; and Violet,
at eighteen years Of age, was frank
simple, and innocent as a child
No one knew the details of Miss
Atherton's love-story She had been
handsome, once upon a time, with a
proud stately beauty. 1t was faded
now; pain had left great lines on her
face. had blanched her hair, had taken
the light from her eyes, and left her
bitter, cold, and proud. 1t was gem
orally believed that her great enmity
to the aristocracy rose from the fact
that she had been cruelty deceived by
one of their number. This was actual
ly the truth Miss Anterior had for
merly lived as English governess OF a
family Of high position in Rome, An
English noblemamn visiting there fell
in love with her and for more than
seven years kept up a constant cor
respondence with her, always promls-
ing that he would make her his wife
when his father died. When that time
came, however, he married a beautiful
young heiress, and Miss Atherton
found that she had wasted her life,
youth, and beauty on a dream. 1t was
this remembrance which made her so
bitter as she walked amongst the roses,
She had tried to teach her neiee two
things; one was to detest the aris-
tocracy Of all nations, the other was to-
live without love.
