NOT KILLED BY MAFIA.
Salvatore Bossoto, of New York, Was
Not Victim of the "Black
Hand"

New York, Aug. 26.-It has devel-
oped that the killing of Salvatore Bos-
soto early Wednesday in his father S
Italian boarding house in Park street
was not connected with the "Blach
Hand" or Malta societies, but crime
of ordinary character.
The shooting, which caused great ex-
citement in the italian quarter and an
attack on the murderer, was done by a
drunken relative of young Bossoto's S
mother The man had borrowed money
and also run up bill in the restau-
rant. Upon being asked to settle he
became abusive and was ordered out.
He drew a pistol and fired. Cabalistic
signs made with chalk and found on the
door of the Bossoto home were sup
posed at first to indicate that the fam
lily had been marked for killing. but
were probably placed there by children
at play. Numerous other marks Of the
same kind were found on doors and
sidewalks in the neighborhood. Young
Bossoto was extremely popular in the
Italian quarter because of his fine sing
ing. He was being educated for an
operate career.

is SMALL HOPE FOR PEACE:
CITY COUNCIL IN EFFORT TO
END CHICAGO MEAT STRIKE.
to Proposition, But Will Con-
fer with Committee.

Chicago. Aug. 26.-From information
obtained Thursday it was learned that
any effort of the city council to settle
the stockyards strike probably would
meet with defeat. Packers are not dis
posed to look favorably on the plan,'
since they already assert the strike was
over so far as the operation OF their
plants was concerned. No refusal is to
be made by the packcTs,l however, it
is said, to request for meeting with
an aldermanic committee.
At it's special session Wednesday
afternoon the Chicago city council au-
thorized the appointment of a commit
tee of aldermen. Members of the COM
mittee have been asked to meet in the
mayors Office Friday at ten a. m. Presl-
dent Michael Donnelly, of the butcher
workmen, is expected to be present one
hour later. At noon Edward Tilden, for
the packers, has been invited to meet
the committee.
When Edward Tilden, of Libby, Nc
Neill & Libby, arrived at his office
Thursday he found a communication
from the council committee inviting
him to meet the body at IL o'clock Fri
day. No action will be taken until
after the packers confer.
President Donnelly said Thursday
that he would not see the mayor and
the council committee before ten O clock
Friday.
Gloom pervaded the headquarters of
the strike leaders in the Transit house
when it became known that the contri-

zation in reality would be $500 instead
of $4,000, which the officials of the
stockyards' striking unions had
banked on.

A Queer Case.

The deputy sheriffs at the st. Louis
county Jail have in prospect the novel
experience of ejecting prisoner whose
term has expired, simply because he
will not go of his own accord. His
name is John Mattson, and he has just
completed a 6O-day sentence for smash
ing windows at Ely. When told he
was free, Mattson nodded but did not
20, and when again reminded that he
was no longer prisoner he still pre-
tended to not understand. 1t is said
that Mattson has 81 900 in the bank,
and the sheriff says he will charge him
for his board if he does not get out
pretty soon.

Dragged by a Cow.

With his leg tied to the tail of cow
which he had been milking, D. Gala
CHER, a farmer living on Winona Ridge,
a few miles south of Winona, was
dragged through barbed wire renee
and suffered injuries from which he
maynot recover The flies had been
bothersome and the switching Of the
cows tail had tried Mr.. Gallaghers
patience. In order to put stop to
the trouble he tied the tail to his leg.
When he resumed milking, the COW
became frightened and dashed through
the wire fence. Mr.. Gallagher was
dragged over the wires and was fright
fully cut about the head and face. He
was picked up in an unconscious con-
tlitiOn.

Aid for Schools.

The number of graded schools in
Minnesota entitled to the state aid has
increased about 25 per cent, and the
numbe er of high schools about 1s per
cent dnring the last year.
TheIstate high school board at its
meeting at the state capitol approved
the applications of 145 graded schools
and OF 1O2 high schools for state aid.
The oard last year granted state aid
to 12l graded schools and 151 high
schools.
The law relating to state aid for
schools provides for a maximum annu-
al aid of $3.50 for graded schools and of
s15oo to high schools, and the last le-
gis!ature increased the appropriation
in hope that each school might receive
the maximum aid

THE WEATHER.

The first Tuesday in September
is not an inapt time to indulge IN
a few reflections upon the wealth
er. Summer wanes. Before we
have known it we shall have reach
ed the fall equinox, with its re-
puted plethora of storms. The
summer has been remarkably
pleasant. Talk to the oldest IN
habitant, and he will tell you he
recollects few that were more
equable. The season was one to
delight the heart of the man who
wants his winters mild and his
summers still milder. If there is
any consolation for the long ano
tempestuous winter of last year il

it just such a summer as the one
passing, in which there were but
four nights in this latitude when
sleep was made difficult by tor
ridity and in which blankets were
not only endurable but comforta-
BILE.
That we shall be likewise bless
ed by a mild winter is not, as the
scientists view it, altogether prob
able. The weather is tickle, it is
true, and meteorology, to say the
least, has not been reduced to an
exact science. But there are the
cries, just as there are indications,
and one person of undoubtedly
vast learning has risen to remark
that the world is going to become
gradually and steadily cooler for
the next eleven or twelve thOus-
and years. 1t is well known that
there are periods in the sun spots,
the length Of the completed period
being eleven years. So, it seems,
there are heat waves and cold
waves in the terrestrial surface.
The last maximum of frigidity
was during the so-called ice age.
From that epoch the earth, dur
ing many thousand years, increas-
ed in surface torridity, until short,
warm winters and boiling hot
summers reached a climax at
about the year 1850 A. D. Since
that period many well-attested
phenomena show that the average
winter has been lengthening and
the average heat of summer di-
minishing.
For eleven or twelve thousand
years this era of encroaching
freeziness may be confidently ex-
pected to unfold itself. Few of
us shall live to see ice bergs ma
jestically floating by what is now
called Key West, Florida, but per-
haps the majority of us may as
sure ourselves Of the joys of frost
ed corns next winter.

TRANSPORTING PRISONERS.

Our Republican friends are
making much ado about the bill
passed by the special session pro-
viding for a change in the meth
DDS or mode of transporting pris-
oners from the county jails to the
State penitentiary. Some wild
and woolly fgurators are actually
asserting that it will save to the
State 100000 annually. Such
talk is the raving of an idiot, or
the talk of one who presumes his
auditors are idiots. The cost OF
removing prisoners from all the
counties to the State penitentiary
under the present method has not
amounted to much over one-tenth
of that sum annually.
Under the present system the
Sheriff takes the prisoners to the
penitentiary. For each prisoner
he is allowed one guard. The cost
of this is paid out of the State
treasury. Under the method pro-
vided by the new law, the warden
of the penitentiary will send a
guard after the prisoner and the
number of guards shall be one
for every three prisoners as we
recall the act. The expenses of
these guards will also be paid out
of the State treasury. Now the
argument is that the expense OF
removing the prisoners will be
only one-third as much as under
the present or old system.
Let us see about that. The act
also empowers the warden or the
penitentiary board to appoint the
necessary additional number of
guards at the State penitentiary.
1t goes without saying that num-
Der of additional guards will have
to be appointed. These are high
salaried men and draw their sal
aries all the year around, whether
there is work for them to do or
not. There must be a sufficient
number at the penitentiary to
meet any demand that may come.
Now, when these additional
guards are paid their annual sal
aries and then the travelling ex-
penses are paid in going after
the prisoners who can say what
the saving will be- If judiciously
managed there ought to be
small saving. If not, there will
be a loss, but, anyway, there will
be a number of fat political jobs
at the penitentiary for political
ward heelers and the Sheriffs will
not be permitted to have the
pleasure of taking the prisoners
to the pen and the little profits
they derived from it.
Verify, these reforms we hear
so much about are slight and
light indeed, when this new penl-
tertiary bill has to be pointed out
and relied upon as one OF the bril-
liant accomplishments of the spe-
cial session.
