Last Saturday Deputy Sheriff
W. E. Cobb vas notified that Jim
Henik, a Bohemian farmer living
about eight miles southwest of
town, had gone insane and was
tramping over his farm with a gun
looking for parties whom he imag-
ined we're trying to kill him. W..
E. and Chas. Cobb and Roy Haynes
went at oroe to the premises to,
capture the demented man. For
tunately when they arrived at the
house they found Mr.. Henik asleep
IN the bedroom, a musket standing
by his bed and a large knife lying
on q table in easy reach. The
weapons were secured, and the
sleeping man was then awakened
;and with some difficulty was per-
suaded to accompany them to
town, where he was placed in the
city lookup. 1t seems that last
June Mr.. Henik's wife left him
and has since secured a divorce
with quite a large alimony, which
compelled him to mortgage his
farm. There We're two children, a |
little girl who went with her moth
err, and a son about thirteen years
of age who remained with his faith
er. The trout le finally seems TO
have caused insanity, and for three
or four days he wandered about
the place apparently seeking for his
wife. The boy finally escaped to
the home OF a neighbor and ex-
planned the condition of his father,
and he was taken into custody. He
was declared insane by tile board
of insanity, but it seems that on
account of the overcrowded condi-
ton of the asylum at Yankton they
are unable to accommodate any
more patients, and until some ar
rangements can be made lie will
remain in charge of Deputy Sheriff
Cobb.

motion of Mr.. Hepburn, of Iowa. He

the vote. Those who spoke in opposi-
ton to the civil service system as 1t
now exists were Messrs. Hepburn
(Rep., Iowa), Grosvenor Rep., Ohio,
and Bartlett Oem., Ga.), while those
speaking for the service were Messrs.
Cooper (Rep., Wis., and Gillett (Rep.,
Mass.). Notice was given by Mr..
Bingham, in charge of the bill, that a
yea and nay vote will be demanded
on the amendment striking out the
provision for the expenses of the civil

James ]. Hill told the agricultur-
lists present at the meeting of the State
Agricultural society in Masonic tenn
pie, Minneapolis, yesterday afternoon
that what the farmer most needed was
an expansion of his market in order
that his surplus product might sell to
the best advantage. He dealt with the
subject in very broad way going in
timately into the relation of agricul-
ture to transportation and pointing to
the Orient as a certain market for the
absorption of the products of this
country.
Mr.. Hills address came as the cul-
mination of day devoted to speech
making. There were many more peo-
pie in the hall than at any of the pre-
vious sessions, and the audience gave
the deepest attention to the address,
which was delivered extemporaneously
except for notes Of figures.

emily became a discussion that was
participated in by many of those pres
ent, and it was nearly o'clock before
Mr.. Hill took the platform.
The chairman introduced Mr.. Hill as
follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen-The next speak
er Is gentleman who has done more for
the farmers of Minnesota, North and
South Dakota, Montana, Idaho Oregon
and Washington than any other hundred
men OF all my acquaintance whose OBJ
Ject has been to cheaper transportation
and make 1t profitable for farmers all
over these states. 1t is hardly necessary
to announce his name. but / will say II
gives me great pleasure to introduce Mr..
j. j. Hill, president of the Great Northern
railroad. (Great appiause.)
Mr.. Hill spoke as follows:
Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen
1t Is a great pleasure to me to be here
today, and 1 may say 1t is q pleasure
for me at all times and in all places to be
able to raise my hand or voice In what
ever will help the country In which we
live. The nation always has and always
will depend for everything that goes to
make the country worth living in, upon
the men who cultivate the soil There
is more intelligence more patriotism,
more of everything that goes TO make
good citizenship, on the farms than any
where else In the country (Applause)

days to the present Many Of us here can
