Sheriff Held at Bay.

Appleton, June 25.-Barri-
caded in their little home just
outside the limits of Seymour,
near here, armed with several
Winchesters and revolvers. and
threatening anyone attempting
to enter, Charles Eucke and his
aged mother stand in defiance of
the sheriff and a number of
deputies, who have warrant for
the arrest of Eucke, charging
him with attempting to kill
August Husmann and making
threats of violence to several
other residents Of Seymour.
Charles Eucke is a brother to
former Assemblyman John
Eucke.
Two years ago Charles Eucke
was arraigned before the Outa-
game county court and adjudg:
ed insane. He was taken to a
private sanitarium at Wauwatosa
from which institute he soon es-
capped. With his pockets filed
with SIS, 1000 in money, he left
for the west, and for more than
six months be travelled through
the western states on horseback.
After spending about $1,000 he
returned to his home in Seymour
few months ago.
Eucke declares that the mem.
bers of secret orders threaten
his life, and never leaves his
his home nor allows his mother
to do so.

The clickless guns of the village guards with
a thudless sound dropped to the ground,
The marshall left his neghless horse and
the voiceless mob ranged all around;
A Hzzless pinwhee silent whirred, and the
dunn corps joined in tOothless screech'
The lips OF the village speaker moved in the
tongueless strains of wordless speech.
Then graceless benediction fell. and the
crackerless lad in q vOiceleSs way
Gave a soundless shout for Bunker hill and
the noiseess Independence day.
0. the pulseless thrill Of the noseless guns
and the toothless flies and the headless
drums,
The heartless Joy of the crackerless lad as
the soundless pageant noiseless comes
Down the village street, and the sightless glow
when the hissless rockets fireless glare
With silent swish from the quiet earth
through the measureless breadth OF the
lightless air;
But fingerless youth of tie olden time
when crackers popped and cannons
roared,
Look on the scene with mien glance and the
look of lad who is greatly bored.
| And he cried aloudA'twas the only sound
that was heard in voiceless way;
| DOG gone the guns at Bunker hill and the
noseless Independence day."

Beating his glee in voiceless shout as blare.

Came down the length of the avenue. and a

While screachless rocket with nolseless hiss
cut a fireless path through the silent air
The blareless band played a soundless tune,
and the crackerless lad gave voiceless
shout
Ae the ripping folds of the unfurled flag
from the upheld standard futtered out,
"Hurrah!"-he cried with voiceless cry, put
forth from his lips in a speechless way
'Hurrah for the guns Of Lexington and the
noiseless Independence day."
Then far away down the village street a
smokeess gun bic ched a soundless roar.
A popless cracker fzzles died, and the band
played blareless tune once more,

Minnesota Republicans in a Row

Minnesota Republicans In a Row
ST. Paul, June 29.-The hottest
pre-convention gubernatorial
fight in the history of the repub-
lican party in Minnesota had it's
elimination today in the holding
of the county conventions in each
county for the selection of dele
gates to the state convention on
Thursday. The preliminary
caucuses have been going on
since last Friday, and each OF
the leading candidates is claim
ing majority of the delegates
to be chosen to-day. The candi-
dates for the nomination are
Robert G. Dunn, former state
auditor; Judge Loren w. Collins,
who resigned a seat on the
supreme bench to enter the race,
and former Congressman Frank
M. Eddy. The principal fight
has been between Dunn and
Collins and their partisans
have been extremely bitter.
Collins has carried Hennepin
county (Minnneapolis,) with it's
big vote, and mas Ramsey county
| (St. Paul. but there is a contest
ing delegation from the latter
county. Dunn has st. Louis
county (Duluth.) Collins likely
has the largest number of dele
gates, but with over 200 contest
| ed seats in the state, the result
is very much in doubt. The
Wisconsin plan of contesting
delegations in the late conven-
ton, is not in it with the great
number of Minnesota contests.
The PROBABILITIES are that there
will be two conventions and a big
row in Minnesota. The fight
has been a very bitter one, buthas
hinged on the personal popular
ity> of the candidates, and there
have been no great issues at
stake.

A Stanley Story.

Stanley used to relate the following
funny story: One day while he was
conversing with friendly tribe during
his travels one Of the chiefs present
inquired how many wives he pos
sessed. Upon Stanley replying that he
had none, all those present stood up
like one man and unanimously ex-
claimed, What splendid liarw They
intensely admired the apparent calm
ness with which he had, as they
thought, tried to pass off on them a
wondrous travellers tale

A View Of La Toilette

The Cumberland Advocate,
which. has been supporter OF
Governor La Toilette for eight
years, and whose editor was a
delegate to the state convention
this year in the interests of La
Toilette, has given up the battle
and here is what the paper has
to say about, the matter last
week.
"The La Toilette faction of the
republican party in Wisconsin
met it's Waterloo in Chicago this
week.
cat the convention dominated
by the governor in Madison,
Robert M. La Toilette, Issac
Stephenson, w. D. Conner, and
jill. Stout were named dele
gates.at large to the national re.
publican convention, named
while the other convention
Senators John G. Spooner, J. V.
Quarles, Congressman Babcock
and Emil Baensch. The contest
was tried before the national
republican committee, each side
presenting it's case and argu-
ments in full. That body decid'
ed by a unanimous vote that the
Spooner delegation comprised
the legally elected delegates and
that they be seated. La Toilette
appealed to the committee on
credentials, which body also de-
clare1 in favor of seating the
Spooner delegation. The ma
tional convention voted to sus.
tain the decision of the national
committee and the com mittee on
credentials, and La Toilette and
his faction were shut out of the
convention.
''This ends or should end, the
factional fightin Wisconsin. If
disgruntled politicians, who have
jobs at stake, insist on continu-
ing the fight and wrecking the
party, they have that privilege,
but they will not receive any en-
couragement Or support from
the rank and file of the republi-
can party, especially when the
people know that it has simmer.
ed down to a question as to
which faction will dominate state
politics.
1.-THE highest tribunal, in the
party has decided against La
Toilette and it is generally con-
coded that the courts will not ig-
more the decision of the conven-
ton, as in matters polite, the
national convention is always re-
garded as the adjuster of all dis
putes within the party.
s'As the platform of the Cook
ticket, which the national con-
vention has practically decided
to be the regular republican
ticket, advocates the principles
for which La Toilette has been
fighting, 1t will, in our opinion
be good policy and political sa-
gacity for Gov. La Toilette to
take his defeat gracefully, retire
from the conflict, and place the
welfare of the republican party
above personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT
orpolitical advancement and bide
his time for another and more
opportune day"

GREAT STRIKE IMMINENT.
Forty Thousand Men Employed by the
 Packing Houses May Go Out.

AAGtANSss i
 Chicago, July 10.--A general strike. Involving 10000 union men engaged in Ithe packing industry in the nine big backing centers of the country, is said | to be imminent. Negotiations between the officials of the Amalgamated Meat
 Cutters and Butcher Workmen of
 America and the big packing firms have been broken off and the unionists of
 Chicago will meet tomorrow to vote on a strike. President Michael Donnelly, Iof the Analgamated association, has been authorized to make the strike gen. eral in case the packing trades council decides at it's meeting to reject the terms of the packers.
 The packers have taken d firm stand Iagainst the demands of the unfonists as to wages and working conditions, and have refused to enter into an agreement for common laborers, stand ling for an open shop as far as this class of unskilled labor is concerned. Tn the case of the laborers in the killing, cut lting, beef-loading and carving depart ments the wage scale demanded by the lunionists has been refused and the em- lployers have offered seventeen and a cents an hour. The original demand was for twenty cents an hour, and this Twas eventually modified to eighteen and a half cents. Of the 40,000 men in the union more than 65 per cent. are class ed as laborers.

 Judge Parker has not yet received the telegram which the St. Louis conyen- ton last night voted should be sent him in reply to his dispatch addressed to William F. Sheehan, in which he de- clared his allegiance to the gold stand ard.
 It is now known that Judge Parkers telegram to MT. Sheehan was sent from the Western Union Telegraph office at Esopus, and the story of the precau- tions taken. both to keep it secret and to verify it's authenticity before it was delivered, constitute remarkable chapter in the story of this extraordi- nary political incident.
