the customs Of different countries are

the weight of opinion seems to be
against q square, open proposal by the

Piraarma and Accidantn.

On the first of November the statis-
tieian told US that the accidents to date
owing to carlessness with firearms
mostly in the hands Of hunters, totaled
is killed and 36 wounded. This is q
good beginning, with the hunting sea-
SON barely on.
Strange as 1t may seem a large per
cent of the killed came to their death
after being mistaken for game. The
hunter must be anxious for something
20 shoot at indeed, when he is content
to fire on suspicion. When men are
willing to take risks of shooting other
men, what chances might they be will
ling to take on farmer premises with
horses and cattle at large in the pas
ture 2
Each year there Is a growing tend
ency on the part of the farmer to bar
hunters from his premises. Consider
ing the apparent willingness of men
with gums to lay themselves liable to
charges of criminal carelessness, it is TO
be admitted that the farmer has good
grounds for his action. -Prarie Far

Mrs. HordSn Dead.

The Atlanta Georgian, of the 14th,
gives the following account of the burn
ing and death of good lady, who once
resided in Tallahassee
After suffering since Monday from
burns received from a blazing dress,
Mrs. Katie Morgan, wife of L. r. Nor
gan, a well-known employee of the
Western Union, died at her home, 1853
South Pryor street, Wednesday morn
ing.
While loYing husband and family are
mourning Der loss, Mrs. Morgan's five
year-Old daughter, Katherine, doesn't I
realize that her mother is dead, or that
death was caused by her innocent play
fuIness.
Last Monday morning Mrs. Morgan
WAS eitting In her room reading news
paper, and at her feet on the floor was
little Katherine, playing with a candle.
in some manner the candle became ig-
nited, and in playing with it, the child
innocently let the blaze come in contact
with her mothers dress
Before Mrs. Morgan realized what
had happened, her dress was q mass of
flames, and, with q piercing shrek, she
rushed out of her room.
A friend, Mrs. Morgan, although no
relative Of the unfortunate mother of
little Katherine, heard the cry and
rushed to her assistance At that time
Mrs. Morgan says her friend was ablaze
from head to feet. Even little Kath-
crime, aroused at the peril her mother
was in, tried frantically to put out the
flames.
Physicians were Immediately called,
but It was seen that Mrs. Morgan was
Dtoo seriously burned to be removed to
Q hospital. Everything possible was
dune, but she fingered until Wednesday
morning, when death relieved her suf-
fering.
Mrs Morgan was 26 years of age, and
was the daughter of Captain j. r.
Sharpe, of Bainbridge, one of the most
prominent meh in that section of the
State, and a director in the Georgia,
Florida and Alabama railroad. She is
survived, besides her husband and little
girl, by her parents and two sisters.
The body will be taken TO cambridge
Wednesday night, and the funeral will
take place there Thursday afternoon at
3 o'clock. The interment will be in the
family cemetery

REPORT OF THE ART BOARD
President koehier Says Something Of
the State Society.

Robert Koehler, president of the
Minnesota State Art society, has filed
his annual report with the governor.
1t states that during the year the
society received fifty-seven new mem
bers and that before Jan. l., thirty
five additional applications had been
acted upon, making a total of 1873
members in all.
The report tells in detail of the ex-
hibits held in various cities of the
state during the year and expresses
the belief that these exhibits have
done much to arouse interest in the
society's work and that the outlook
is excellent for materially increased
membership.
Regret is expressed that the head
quarters of the society have been re-
moved from the new to the old CAPT
toll and also that the last legislature
declined to give additional appropria
ton.
The report concludes that the next
legislature will be asked to erect a
special building for the society that
its work may be the better carried on

ONLY BEST AT WONDERLAND
Hirscher and His Famous Humpty-
Ounpty Doqs the Bill.

Hirscher and his famous Humpty-
Dumpty performing dogs are making
big hit at Wonderland this week.
They arrived yesterday and were given
rousing reception last evening. The
vaudeville act regularly booked by
the management at Wonderland was
not up to the requirements, and pur-
posing to give none but the best at
fractions was promptly cancelled. 1t
was then the good fortune of the man
agement to secure Hirscher and his
marvellous dogs, one of which weighs
but two and a half pounds and is the
smallest performing animal in the
world. The moving pictures are good
and the whole bill is one of the best
in weeks.

WITHOUT The HIRSUTES
SANTAS IN DIES MONIES MUST
NOT WEAR WHISPERS.
Edict Of Marshal Will Put a Stop to So
Many Displays Of Com sbusti-
bles In Windows

Dies Moines, Dec. Avery Santa
Claus in Des Moines this Christmas
will be whiskerless. The edict has
gone forth. Fire Marshal Louis Sic
gel, who has issued the order that no
cotton or tissue paper whiskers will be
permitted at any Christmas eve cele-
bration throughout the city, has quail
flied the order by leaving one loop
hole.
Santa Claus may wear whiskers if
they are made of asbestos.
Such a remarkable order has caused
no end of comment throughout the
city. Dozens of churches which have
always celebrated Christmas Eve with
tree and the inevitable Santa Claus
are disposed to rebel. Removing Santa
Claus whiskers is removing the dis
tinctive feature of the old gentleman's
appearance, they say.
But the fire marshal is firm, he
points to innumerable fires that have
been caused by Santa's inflammable
whiskers coming in contact with a
candle or spark and he proposes to
avoid all risks of this kind this year
Marshal Siegel has served notice
upon all toy stores that only asbestos
whiskers or -infammable window
decorations will be permitted. OF
course it is probable that in some
homes. Santa will be there, whiskers
and all, but not at any public gather
ing, the fire marshal says.

THEY GAVE A BUM SHOW
JOE RUERUP COULDN'T STAND
FOR THE PERFORMANCE.
Actors and "Actorneens"Were Not Up
to His Ideas; New Attraction at
the Wonderland.

Joseph Ruerup made quick work of
the Haywood & Owen company Mon
day. The company was advertised for
a weeks stand, and started out with
a matinee Monday afternoon. AS soon
as the matinee was over, Mr.. Ruerup
cancelled the contract and told the
company that its services were no
longer needed. The performance APP
peared to be a rehearsal, for those
taking part seemed to have never
given it before and did it very badly.
Miss Owen herself was Disguised, and
said that she would leave the COM
pany. She had been with it only
since last Wednesday.
Mr.. Haywood claimed to have lost
a $3.50 diamond scarf pin during the
matinee performance, but failed to find
it afterwards when searching for it.
1t is thought that he packed it in his
grip with his neckties without MOTTO
ing it.
Mr.. Ruerup at once engaged Hir-
shal's Humpty Dumpty performing
dogs, including little dog weighing
only two and half pounds, said to
be the smallest performing dog in the
world. Mr.. Ruerup is determined that
only good entertainments shall be
given at the Wonderland, such as are
worthy of patronage.

SMALLPOX ON THE INCREASE
There Are 495 Cases in the State, Ac-
cordine to Reports.

Reports of the number of smallpox
cases during the past fifteen weeks by
Secretary H. M. Bracken of the state
board of health show total of 495
cases for that period. The report is
by weeks and shows that as usual the
number of cases increases with the ad-
vent of cold weather. The smallest
number was in the week ending Sept.
80, when there were four cases, and
the highest number was in the week
ending Nov. IL, when there were nine
ty-two cases.
The Franklin school was ordered
closed today, on account of a pupil
there having come down with the dis
ease. The building will be fumigated,
and the school will not reopen until
Monday.
This afternoon Mrs. Joseph Dollar,
residing at the Nicollet House, was re-
ported officially as having smallpox.

TALKED PARCELS POST
MEMS CLUB OF THE BAPTIST
CHURCH ON SUBJECT.
Papers Read BY Elmer Glenn, Profess
sor Edward J. Gasink, Catalogue
Houses Are Discussed.

The Mems club of the Baptist church
held an unusually interesting meeting
last evening, "The Parcels Post" being
the subject for discussion. The attend
ance was large, and the discussion was
participated in by all. The principal
paper was read by Elmer Glenn, who
outlined the system as followed in this
country, explained the laws and cover
ed the ground with an excellent de-
scriptive paper.
Professor Edward j. Gasink of the
high school faculty read a fine paper,
in which he gave history of the
parcels post in foreign countries, where
it is used much more extensively than
in the United States.
Postmaster Veigel was present and
at the request of the club expressed
his views, and the recommendations of
the postmaster general. The latter
had suggested three changes in the
law that he thought would be advan-
tageOus. The rate of postage now is
l6 cents for a package of any size up
to four pounds, and nothing heavier
than four pounds can be sent from one
point in America to another, but
packages up to eleven pounds can be
sent to Europe. He suggested that
the rate of postage be lowered to five
cents for the first pound, and two
cents for each additional pound, where
the packages go out from a town to
the rural routes surrounding and are
not transported by rail- He suggested
that the limit of weight be increased
to eleven pounds, and that the fiat
rate be lowered from sixteen to eleven
cents. Mr.. Veigel favored the first
two recommendations
The. discussion drifted naturally into
the mail order business.

GUILTY OF AN ASSAULT
JURY RETURNS A VERDICT UN-
FAVORABLE TO JOE KAINZ.
Second Degree Charge Is Sustained
BY the Court, Twelve Men Rec
ommend Clemency.

The jury in the case of Joseph
Kainz, indicted for assault in the Sec
ond degree upon John Suess, retired
at Has a. m. today, and returned
at two o'clock this afternoon with a
verdict of guilty of assault in the
third degree.
Yesterday morning, when the first
witness for the state was sworn, c.
O.. Daley, attorney for the defendant,
moved that the action be dismissed on
the ground that the indictment did
not allege that the assault was made
"wilfully and unlawfully," as required
by the statute. The court took this
point under advisement, taking re-
cess from 1890 a. m. until 2 p. M.
At that hour he stated that he would
not pass finally upon the motion until
he charged the jury, and that the TAX
ing of evidence might proceed, for if
the motion prevailed it would not af
feet the indictment as far as assault
in the third degree was concerned, as
the use of those words were not es-
sential in charging third degree as
sault.
When the court charged the jury
this forenoon, he granted the defend
ants motion so far as the second
degree charge wasI concerned, and in
structed the jury that it must return
verdict of guilty of assault in the
third degree only, or verdict of ac-
quittal.
The jury, in returning verdict of
guilty, recommended the defendant to
the mercy of the court. Sentence will
not be pronounced for day or two.
The appeal of Esther 0. Anderson
VS.. d. A. Reed, executor, in the mat
ter of the estate of Charles Whit
man deceased, went to trial this after
noon. 1t is an appeal from the dis
allowance of claims. This is the last
Jury case to be tried.
