The Fight In the Valley.


'Far below. in the heart of the sunny
Repression bordering the left bank of
the Little Big Horn, the stalwart
Troopers under Reno's command gazed

TO SAVE THE DROWNING.
Surgeon Advocates Cutting Open the
Chest and Working Heart by Hand.

surgeon Advocates Cutting Open the
Chest and Working Heart by Hand.
1t is believed by DR.. d. f. Sullivan,
who while operating on Nuncio G..
Chial at st. Francis hospital in Hart
ford, Conn, the other day twice saved
his patient from death by gently
grasping the heart and squeezing it in
time with its normal pulsations until it
beat again of it's own accord, that
many lives might be saved by this
method of artificial respiration To all
appearances the man was dead twice,
and yet he lived again when the heart
was squeezed, sending the blood cours-
ing through the arteries.
DR.. Sullivan thinks that if a person
could be operated upon Immediately
after being taken from the water in
many drowning cases life might be
conserved. He advocates opening the
body and removing the ribs until the
heart is visible and is accessible in
order that the fingers may be inserted
to handle it. In many accidents life
still fingers long after the person seems
to have ceased to breathe.

FORETOLD HIS FUTURE.
The Message Carl sehurz Received
From Spirit Land.

The Message Carl Schurz Received
From Spirit Land.
An extraordinary experience with a
medium is given in the Carl SchErz
memoirs in McClure's.
After receiving what purported to be
message from Schiller. General
Schurz asked that the spirit of Lincoln
be summoned to tell why President
Johnson had called Schurz to Wash
ington.
THE answer came, He wants you
to make an important journey for him.

me. Answer, He will tell you tomor-
row. ! asked further whether /
should undertake that journey An
swer, Yes; do not fall q may add,
by the way, that at that time had not
the slightest anticipation as to what
President Johnson's intention with re-
gard to me was.)
Having disposed of this matter,
asked whether the spirit of Lincoln
had anything more to say to me. The
answer came, Yes; you will be sena-
tor of the United States This struck
me as so fanciful that l could hardly
suppress laugh, but / asked further,
From what state| Answer, From
Missouri This was more provokingly
mysterious still, but there the CONVEX
sation ceased.
Hardly anything could have been
more improbable at that time than that
[ should be a senator Of the United
States from the state of Missouri. My
domicile was in Wisconsin, and was
then thinking Of returning there. l
had never thought Of removing from
Wisconsin to Missouri, and there was
not the slightest prospect Of my ever
doing so.
But, to forestall my narrative, two
years later l was surprised by an en-
tirely unsought and unexpected bust
ness proposition which took me to st.
Louis, and in January, 1869. the legis-
lature Of Missouri elected me sena-
tor Of the United States. l then re-
membered the prophecy made to me
at the spirit seance in the house Of my
friend Tiedemann In Philadelphia"

CLEVER FISHERMEN.
Odd Methods of the Indians on the
Sault Ste. Marie.

Soo Me1nooS OF the INDIANS on the
Sault Ste. Marie.
On the Sault Ste. Marie the Indians
have d novel method of catching white
fish. Two Indians go with canoe into
the rapids. One occupies the bow and
one the stern. The latter uses a pad
die to keep the boats head upstream.
The former has a pole with which to
steady the boat, standing upright in
his place.
They take with them a dipnet four
feet in diameter attached to a pole or
handle fifteen feet long. This is placed
ready to the hand Of the Indian in the
bow. The fishing is done at the foot
of the rapids. where the water boils
and tumbles furiously.
With his pole the Indian in the bow
holds the canoe or lets it float steadily
sidewise, now up little perhaps and
then down, but always under perfect
control. The Indian gazes constantly
into the water, which is often ten feet
deep where they are fishing and the
depths of which no white man was
ever yet able to school his eye to pene-
trate.
Suddenly he SEXES the net by the
handle with one hand, still manipulate
ing the boat with the other, and plunges
the net into the water, perhaps ten feet
away, thrusting it to the bottom Then
he gives it peculiar twist, draws it
up and turns out into the boat often
as many as half a dozen whitefsh
weighing from three to five pounds
These Indian fishermen are unerring
in casting their nets. and it is not an
uncommon thing for them to capture
300 whitefsh in day. How they are
able to see the fish in the bottom of
the rapids is a mystery no one has yet
been able to fathom.-Pearson's Week

PAPER FROM SUGAR CANE.
Invention of Trinidad Planter May
Revotutionize Industry

A consular report interesting in view
Of the wood pulp investigation now
being conducted by a special commit
tee of the house, has reached the state
department from Consul General Guen-
ther, at Frankfort, Germany. 1t re-
lates to the invention by Trinidad
planter of a process for the manufac-
ture of superior quality Of paper
from bagasse, the dry refuse Of sugar
cane. 1t is stated that he has erected
paper works in connection with his
sugar factory at an expense Of $S5, 900.
The inventor claims that 81 per cent
OF the bagasse is transformed into pa
per pulp, and he believes that his in
vention will revolutionize the cane
sugar industry, as it would be remu-
nerative to plant sugar cane primarily
for making paper, with the sugar as a
byproduct. The cost of paper produc-
ton by the process is said to, be very
low.

STOLEN HORSE
Thought to Have Been Located at Orr.
WiIle-Officers and Owner to
Investigate.

G. ]. Miners horse and buggy,
stolen from hitching post in front of
David Harris saloon, corner of Third
and Court streets, last Thursday ev-
ing, after it had been hired by Mich
ael ]. BOlar was found Sunday night
in Orrville. where a man was trying
to dispose of it. The man who stole
it had the horse in the stables con-
nected with the Rest house at that
place and the low price which he Of
fered it at led the proprietor of the
stable to surmise that it was stolen.
The description of the horse and run
about was sent to this city and Mil
ner was satisfied that it was his out
fit. He reported the matter to the
police and late Sunday evening Chief
Smith prepared an affidavit and placed
it in the hands of Captain Patterson,
who accompanied Miner to Orrville.
Miner asked that the man be arrested
and held until the arrival of Captain
Patterson, but he did not know that
this was done, as the man was not
present when the message was sent to
this city. This is the second time that
this horse has been stolen from the
local liverman.

STANDARD
Oil Case to be Carried
to the United States
Supreme Court
VITAL TO RAILROADS

Chicago, Aug. 23.-If the plans of
the government carry the Standard Oil
case will be carried to the United
States supreme court by Short CUT
method This is revealed in an OBJ
scure paragraph of the petition filed
with the United States court of appeals
for re-hearing of the reversal of
the $29 ,240,OOO fine.
Judges Grosscup, Seaman and Bak-
er are asked by Attorney General
Bonaparte to certify the entire pro-
ceedings to the supreme court. Here
tofore it has been generally supposed
the only method by which the depart
ment of justice could get a hearing
of the oil case before the highest
tribunal was through a petition for
a writ of certiorari. That proceeding
would mean a delay until the inter
mediate court had disposed of the re-
hearing plea.
The government, however, seeks to
facilitate matters through an imme-
diate certifcation of the case to the
supreme court. 1t is pointed out to
the judges of the court of appeals
that their opinion leaves in doubt the
question of the defendants guilty
knowledge" They are told that the
statute provides that they may at
any time certify to the supreme court
any questions or propositions of law
concerning which they desire con-
struction.
In view of the fact that the question
of the defendant company's guilty
knowledge" is the most important
point involved in the reversal of Judge
Lands, the certification of the propo-
sition practically would amount to
an appeal of the entire case.
The petition dwelling on this feat
ure, adds the question involved is
vital to shippers and railroads.
Suits are now pending in practi-
cally every circuit court of the United
States" says the government lawyers
"and this is a point upon which emf
nent judges differ. In fact, it is a
! question expressly left open for the
supreme court, under these circum-
stances we respectfully suggest that
this court may certify this question to
the supreme court to the end that a
final decision of this important ques-
tion may be obtained"

DROPPED DEAD
While on Way to Church
Last Evening Did
Mrs. e. Genet
FROM HEART TROUBLE

Massillon, Ohio, August 24.-While
on her way to attend the ev-
ening services at the Faith Lutheran
chapel, on South Grant street, about
O'Clock last evening, Mrs. E. Genet, of
503 North Mill street, dropped dead
on West Main street. A physician was
Immediately summoned while she was
