The arbitrary methods Of the Mus
lcovites may make mess Of it once
in q while. An account Of a ridi-
culous blunder made by the police
at Hargo has just made the rounds
of the Scandinavian press. Prof.
Arvid Neovius, who occupied a posi-
ton at a high school in Helsing-
fors, was suspected of nti-Russian
agitation, and the police were order
ed to search his house for evidence
against him. On the same day some
policemen proceeded to the house Of
Senator Neovius, at Hango, and they
made a thorough search of his house,
breaking locks and prying into every
thing and even destroying much ex-
pensive furniture After the raid
was made it was found out that SEN
ator Neovius was cousin Of the man
that the authorities had in mind But

justice particularly rich is the fact

Mrs. Lundum of Randers was to
have some teeth pulled, and the dent
ist asked another doctor to assist him
because the lady wished to be chlor-
oformed. When everything was sup
posed to be in order and the dentist
was about to perform the operation
the patient opened her eyes and said
that she was awake yet. Chloroform
was applied for a second time, and
this resulted in an immediate and
complete collapse. The physicians,
realizing the danger, at once made
vigorous efforts to bring her back
to life, but in the course Of an hour
they became convinced that there
was no hope. The woman had been
chloroformed on several occasions
during her life, and the physicians
were exonerated. She was 40 years
old, and the mother of six children.

Exceeded Authority.

Attorney General w. B. Douglas
filed an opinion with State Auditor S.
G. Iverson that the last legislature
exceeded its authority in providing
that horses afflicted with glanders
shall l be appraised by the state live
stock sanitary board without taking in
to consideration the fact that they are
in a diseased condition. Mr.. Douglas
holds that the legislature had no right
to provide that the board pay more
than the actual value of the horses,
and that in arriving at the actual value
the appraisers must consider the fact
that he animals are diseased
The live stock sanitary board has
killed many horses afflicted with gland
ers, and the state auditor has received
several claims for three-fourths of the
amount Of the appraised value of the
aDimals,in accordance with chapter 141
of the laws of 1903.
