By the Aid of an Enetic the Evil
dence Against Him Was Recovered.
Columbia, S. c.. April 4.-To avoid
detection and arrest, Wash Kinsle a
young negro man, swallowed a coun-
terfeit bill he was trying to pass on a
Syrian fruit dealer here this afternoon.
After making his purchase the negro
carelessly threw down what purported
to be a 81 bill, but Immediately the
dealer detected it as being counterfeit
and called a. passing policeman. He
was just little too late, however, for
the negro rammed the bill into his
mouth and swallowed it.
The city physician was called and a
hyperdermic injection was given Kin
sler, which acted as an emetic, and the
bill came up" in three minutes.

A Suggestion for Washoe.

The matter of selecting a Demo-
cratic Superintendent of the Asylum
is one that is causing a great deal
of discussion and factional feeling and
it ought to be settled before the cam
paign is much older. The Appeal sug-
gests that the matter be submitted to
a regular primary in Washoe county
in which all resident physicians OF that
county who are candidates for the
place submit their claims to the DEM
ocratic and Silver voters, the persons
conserved jointly to pay the expenses
and see that none but regularly acred.
tied members of the party vote.
Such a settlement of the question
ought to be final and the Appeal be-
lieves that the Board of Asylum com
missioners will be willing to abide by
the result.

IN JUSTICE TO ALL.

The Journal of yesterday contains
the following:
The Carson Appeal of Tuesday pub
fishes an absolutely untruthful state
ment in relation to a lunch that was
prepared at the Asylum On the day Of
the arrival of Secretary Shaw in Reno.
The facts are simply these, it was
proposed that if the Secretary arrived
on time, that he was to visit the State
institutions here and also the rest
dences of Senator Newlands and Gov
ernor Sparks. AS it was estimated
that about the time the party reached
the Asylum a lunch would be in order,
it which he did at his own expense.
If everything had gone off as program
med. Senator Newlands and Governor
Sparks would have been in attendance
as we'll as several other Reno citizens
of both political parties. That was
all there was about it, and We pub
lish the facts in justice to DR.. Patter
son whose appointment the Journal
and whose place it is still our decided
opinion should be held by a Democra-
tic physician. plenty Of whom can be
found in the State who are fully as
competent to perform the duties of the
position as satisfactorily as the pres
ent incumbent, The Journal wants to
see the place filled by a Democrat and
ones whose fidelity to the party does
not depend upon his appointment =
the office: one who has always en-
deavored to build up instead of pull
down the party.
The above is published out of jus
tice to all hands. The Appeal go

been a case of great cry and littl

'54ER RETURNS TO Die.
M. Wall Back After Twenty-Five
Years Absence.
To Spend Last Days in Old Home,
His One Wish.
Wall Is One of the Only Six Liv'
ing ''First Settlers -

After an absence of over twenty
years from the city where he was one
Of the very first settlers, Meinrad Wall
has at last returned to New Ulm to
live his remaining years and die where
he can be buried with his early COM
rades. OF that little band of pioneers
who came here in 1854 but six remain
and of these Wall is one.
The figure of this old man, bent and
slightly tottering and with shaggy hair
and beard which despite his seventy
seven winters is but slightly touched
with gray, is not a familiar one to the
present generation in New Ulm and its
vicinity, but from "a to '82 he was one
of the best known farmers in West
Newton who do their trading in this
city. But TWENTY-FIVE years ago, after
some domestic troubles, he turned his
back on the community and sought out
a new home in Oregon. He picked out
piece Of land near the town of Silver
ton and having no children, he settled
down to life of lonliness and hard
work. Here be passed out of the lives
and almost out of the minds of his for
mer friends.
So the years passed by and old age
crept upon him. The climate did not
agree with him SO very well and he
was stricken with asthma, which kept
growing worse and worse. And then
at the end of twenty-five years, know
ing that his days were numbered and
that the shadows were lengthening, he
began to think longingly at the CON-
munity where he had come in his young
manhood as a pioneer, and resolved
to sell his western property and return
to spend his remaining days in New
Ulm. His one wish was to die where
nearly all the friends of his early
years had died and be buried where
they are buried.
Mr.. Wall arrived in the city a week
ago Friday and took up his residence
at the st. Alexander hospital the fol-
lowing Monday. He is not confined
to his bed but wishes to stay at the
hospital where he can have the best OF
care and medical treatment.
That this pioneer of "a should ar
rive in New Ulm just in time to parti-
cipate in the semi-centennial celebra-
ton is not altogether an accident. He
had kept track of the years well and
knew that the half century mark in the
history of the city was near, and a
short time ago his old friend and com
rade Peter Mack wrote him of the, con-
templated celebration by the TURNER
Elm, and, as he was coming back any.
way, he decided to arrange his arrival
SO as to be present at the anniversary.

First Regular United States Troops to Enter the
City in Many Years.

Soon the Fifteenth Battery of field
artillery which has been on the march
from Fort Smelling to New Ulm will
be in camp and the boom of cannon
will be reyerberating over the city.
The United States troops are now but
a few miles away and by this evening
or tomorrow morning regular troops
of Uncle Sam will be quartered in the
city for the first time in many years.
The glad hand of the city is to be
extended. When the troops are with

their camping grounds with martial
music.

Everything is in readiness for their
arrival. The fair grounds have been
put in first class shape for the soldiers
and the campers will find everything

ranges have also been secured and
been put in shape. OF these there will
be many. Several on Christ Filzen' S

Of a mile to one and three-quarters
miles. The longest distance range
will be on Aug. Kuehn's farm, where
the ground covered will be from two

1t is probable that during their stay
the battery will be guests at one OF
more entertainments.

THOUSANDS PAID TRIBUTE
CONTINUED from page |.

Odd Fellows, the Sons of Herman, the
Workmen and the Woodmen, to which
orders he belonged. The coffin rested
in the center of the room, ~almost hid
by the multitude Of flowers and floral
wreaths and while the Springfield band
played, the throngs who wished to
take one last look at the silent features
passed in file. The services were
simple, consisting of a short address
and vocal selections by male and
ladies' quartet.
Then the march to the cemetery was
begun. The procession numbered liz
teams and those for whom there were
no carriages formed in line of march.
At the open grave the multitude
gathered and the German Methodist
minister, W. T. Fritze, addressed a
a few remarks. While the band played
and the mourners stood with uncover
ed heads the body was lowered to it's
| last repose.
Among the citizens of Brown county
who have lived a public life and spent
many years closely identified with the
growth of the community there are
none who stand out more prominently
| that Mr.. Schmid. He came to the
county in 1868 and devoted his early
years to music. In 1879 he located in
Sleepy Eye and went into the hotel
business, which he ran proftably until
his election as sheriff in 1884. This
Office he held for three terms and could
probably have retained it longer if he
had not decided to 60 into business
more extensively. Upon moving away
from New Ulm in 1890 he chose Spring
field as home and there he has re-
sided since, and there his business
interests have been largely built up.
| Mr.. Schmid was man of many
enterprises and was interested in
several undertakings in Springfield
and outside. He was director and
was one time president Of the Spring
field bank and was largely interested
in the elevator business in Springfield
! and in Canada.
Death from Brights disease came to
him suddenly Thursday after a sick
ness lasting but three days. He leaves
wife and eleven children.

There was little or no damage done

We entered the train at Waterloo
found that Thomas was my vis-a-vis.
He was in a communicative mood;
and, as the rules of discipline are some
what relaxed on such occasions, we had
a lengthy conversation on the journey
between Waterloo and Southampton.
Thomas had, somehow, got 1t into his
mind that he was political" prisoner
and not a common felon; and one Of the
first things he asked me was what
tho papers had TO say" about his doings.
He was, evidently, under the impress
sion that the whole of England, from
Lands End to John O'Groats, was ring
ing with the letter-box fiasco, whereas,
so far as knew, not a single paper had
made the least comment upon it.
To all appearance, Thomas was of
sound intellect; he could converse CO.

most subjects, and altogether he made
a rather favorable impression at this
first interview.
We had not been in Parkhurst many
days before Thomas proved himself
TO be a "crackpot.' I met him one
morning on the exercise ground and
the following dialogue might have
been heard by any one standing within
a few yards of us.
Coming behind me he whispered:
"I say. No. AZ, isn't this a beastly
place? ! would like to blow the whole
