EQUALLY blessed "a in its more allowed

here and there shade tree, It is note
riously uniuviticg. The merchant, as

OWATONNA, Mimi, March 17.-(Spe-
cial.)-William Burk, resident of Deer
field township. was arraigned in the mu-
nicipaf court on the charge of assault and
battery. The charge was made by Dennis
Herman, a farm laborer In his employ.
The issue which brought Herman and
Burk to blows was the question of the
number of hours which constitutes a
days labor. 1t seems that last Sunday
morning at about half past Burk called
Herman, who was still in bed. The latter
was evidently inclined to consider tho
Sabbath as a day of rest, however, and
continued TO rest in the arms of Nor
pheus. Some time later Burk again call
ed Herman, but Herman continued to
court the drowsy god.
Having exhausted his lung power Burk
took the lantern, with which it was his
custom each morning to pilot his way
about the barn yard, and, going up stairs,
proceeded to club Mr. Herman out of
bed. In the midst of the excitement the
bed Stats broke and Herman was pre-
cipitated to the floor, where, with his
movements hampered by the bed clothing
he was completely at Burk's mercy. The
latter made good use of his opportunity
and Mr.. Tierman's face, as it appeared
at the trial, was ample evidence of the
vigor of the assault.
The case was tried before Judge Luce
and Burk was bound over to the district
court in the sum of 5000.
