In the meantime the Faribault lady

whose preliminary hearing began today.
Knute Tome, a young man who paid
attention to the pretty widow before her
marriage to Lundstrum, was indirectly
dragged into the case today and it is
understood that the defense will endeav-
or to prove that he was in the neighbor-
hood of the johnson farm at about the
time the deadly quantities of Paris
green were put into the well and the
orange innoculated with sufficient
strychnine to kill twenty persons was
left on the desk of Mrs. Lundstrum.
Mrs Llmdstrum unfolded the new de-

they followed the development with the
most important testimony, from their
standpoint, of the day. This came from
the mouth of John l.. Johnson, the prom

ANOTHER POISON CASE.
Comes Before judicial Authorities at
CWatonna.

If one puts Paris green on his pota-
toes and heavy wind comes along and
blows the aforesaid Paris green into
a neighbours field, says dispatch from
Owatonna to The Minneapolis Times,
and the neighbours cows eat some of the
poison and die as result, can the own
er of the COWS recover damages from
the man who placed the poison on his
potatoes? That is the highly interest
ing question of law which was brought
up in IA local court, and was answered
in the negative by the iury's decision
to the effect that no damages could be
collected.
A man named Pishkey living in the
outskirts of the city prepared some
Paris green and spread it over his pc
tato patch. A wind came up and it is
alleged that some of the poison was
blown into a pasture adjoining in which
were some cows belonging to Edward
Manthey. The cows ate literally of the
grass i'm that vicinity, and as a result
one of them died and several others
were rendered very sick.
Manthey first wished Pishkey arrested
on criminal action, but was told that
this was impossible since no intent to
do harm was manifest. Then a civil ac-
ton was brought to recover for the
dead cow, and the defendant demanded
a jury trial. This was granted and the
jury decided that because the wind had
blown the poison into the field and be
cause the process of putting Paris green
on potatoes was common practice,
that Pishkey was not liable for dam
ages, and rendered their verdict accord.

HUNTLEY SENTENCED.
Two Interpreters Required to Con-

from MONDAY S Ddlly.
George Huntley was brought before
Judge Comstock this forenoon to answer
the charge of breaking plate glass
window at the residence of Mrs. Louisa
Mansfield. As he is a deaf mute, some
rOuble was had in conversing with him.
It was neseccary to get two interpre-
ters, one in the sign language and the
other in the alphabet. The interpreter
Who could talk in the sign language
was himself a deaf mute, and the other
interpreter was required to converse
With him and translate it to the court.
Will Capernulte filled this latter posi-
ion, while the party who talked direct
" with the defendant was Anton Vodt.
Had Huntley been able to converse with
he alphabet or read or write there
would have been little trouble, or if the
Interpreter who talked with him could
have used the sign language and talk
ed it would have made the work easier.
Huntley at first denied that he was
he one who broke the window, but
finally agreed to plead guilty to a less

preferred against him, which was a
grand jury one. County Attorney Will

MANKATO PEOPLE.
These. Only Are Expected to Sign A. A.
Bucks Bond.

From Tuesdays Daily.
A. A. Buck has not yet furnished a
bond, and it may be several days before
he is able to do so. He has employed
Judge Hughes to draw one up for him,
and it now awaits signatures. Several
are willing to sign as surety to limit
ed extent, say 800 each.
Mr.. Buck states that he has given up
the idea of having any Mapleton PEG.
pie sign the bond, and will have it sign
ed only by Mankato people. He states
that it is unnecessary to have Maple
ton people sign it.
Several Mapleton people were in the
city last evening to see Mr.. Buck, and
one of them volunteered to sign the
bond if several Others would, and one or
more Mankato people have said that
they would under similar conditions.
