Governor Johnson Of Minnesota
Struggling HeIoicaIIy in
Battle for Life.
GROWING STEADILY WEAKER
Unable to Retain Any Nourish.
nent Except Plain and
Carbonated Water.

Rochester, Mimi, Sept. 20-Govern.
Or John A. Johnson has successfully
passed through another round of his
battle for life. Dr.. Nevin, in charge
Of his case, seems more hopeful than
at any previous time.
The governors physical condition is
growing slowly weaker, of course.
This is to be expected. But he is re-
tanning the carbonated water and plain
water that is given him for nourish-
ment and that is a very good sign.
The fact that he was unable to retain
the small quantity of champagne given
him is not considered bad sign, as it
was merely given him as an expert
ment.
But while the doctors and nurses
and general public may have wavered
at times on the question of the gov
ernor's recovery Governor Johnson
himself has never for a moment given
up hope and when he was visited by
DR.. w. J. Mayo he was even more
optimistic than before.
Enjoys RestfuI Sleep.
During the hour previous to DR..
Mayo's visit the governor had slept
about half an hour, had passed some
gas naturally and was in less pain.
DR.. Mayo examined the wound and
found it in very satisfactory condi-
ton. After he had dressed it he en-.
couTaged the governor so much that
he later was not only brave and opti-
mistic but absolutely cheerful.
Governor Johnson got more sleep
during the day than during any othe,
day since the operation, probably more
than six hours in the aggregate. The
mere fact that he is holding his own
and not losing ground is encouraging
because it puts him just that much
nearer the point where improvement
may confidently be expected.
All is favorable. 1t would seem al
most as though the united prayers OF
the people of Minnesota that were of.
fered up here and all over the state
| for divine intervention ir behalf OF
the governor were being answered.

EIGHT TRAINMEN KILLED
Fifteen Passengers Injured, Two
Probably Fatally.

injured, two perhaps fatally, is the re-
suit of collision between a passen-
ger and a freight train on the Nash

from the mass of ashes about them.
All the injured passengers are from
North Carolina and Tennessee.

JUDGE JOHN [. BUCKLEY.

The explicit way in which Judge
John l., Buckley and District Attor.
ney Currie conducted the Smith

favorable comment and Judge Buck

the State. Already Mississippi has
been held up as an example to the
public, The public eye has been
upon us and fortunate it was that
the Judge was equal to the emer.
gency. Another favorable comment
has been made in regard to the half
dozen of brilliant lawyers who took
part in the prosecution and the de-
Tense, Seldom has it occurred in

profound knowledge Of law but by
his gracious manner and careful
consideration of every one, especially
to Miss Smith, daughter of defend

ways in we'll chosen words ever
being mindful Of the select and
cultured circles in which she was
accustomed to move. Throughout

the MEMPHIS DAILY APPEAL OF JANU.
AIRY |. 1859.

Mr.. II. 7. Anthony recently show
ed US a copy Of the Memphis Daily
Appeal printed under date Of Janu-
airy |, 1859, by Messrs. John r.
McClanahan, Ieonidas Trousdale
and Benjamin f. Dill. The paper
at that time was printed daily, tri-
weekly and weekly. This copy Of
the daily which we had the pleasure
to look over contained four pages Of
ten columns each, neatly printed in
nonpareil type. The columns are
30 inches long, the advertisements
numerous but small, the snbscrip-
ton price $1,000 per year for the
daily, $500 for the ri-weekly and
$3.50 for the weekly. The leading
editorial was with reference to the
enlargement OF the paper to accom-
modate its increasing business.
The claim of 1900 subscribers is
made with the boast Of being "the
largest paper in the South or West,
the st. Louis Republican only except.
ed" But few familiar names APP
pear in the various advertisements,
the bulk Of the advertisers being cot
ton factors and commission mer-
chants. Notices of runaway negro
slaves and rewards offered for them
appear in different columns. This
old copy is wonderfully well pre-
served, the quality of the paper is
extra good and typographical APP
pearance is splendid. 1t is a valu-
able souvenir Of the good old days,
and Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Justly
prize it very highly.

NcLaurin Miss today spoke on the
Brownsville matter upholding the
position taken by the President in
the discharge of the negroes Of the

he could not sign . bill for their re-
enlistment without st~ultifying.
THE President he said, "is en-,
titled to plaudit well done, good
and faithful servant for the act of
discharging the whole worthless
band. 1t is not expected that he
will do any act in reference to this
matter that will draw a black mark
across a course of conduct in the
matter deserving Of such high COM
mendation,"
MIR. McLaurln congratulated Sena-
tor Foraker on the progress he had
made in seeking legislation for the
re.enlistment of the Brownsville
soldiers. "lle has accomplished
this he said, graphing with the
administration in mortal combat
with one hand, while he has been
able with the other to compel the
hostile Republican party in the SEN
ate into becoming obedient follow
ers Of his flag, and this just as he
is leaving the White House."

A gentleman residing in a neigh,

weevils to an entomologist, and re-
ceived the following reply
Dear Sir-The box containing
insects has just been received.
These insects are known as cookie
bur weevils, scientific name baris
transverse. They are known to feed
only upon the roots of the cocklebur,
and ! think if they are abundant in
your cotton fields, you will find that
there are some cocklebur plants in
that vicinity. These insects are not
known to do any damage to cotton,
but they resemble the boil weevil
very much in appearance, and a
person not acquainted with the lat
ter might easily confuse them. |
am always glad to receive insects Of
any kind and 10 serve you in any
way
We frequently hear complaints
from different sections of our county
that boil weevils in great numbers
are to be found among the old cot,
ton stalks, and in the cocklebur
patches, and the presumption is
that these reported boil weeyils are
the same insects referred to in the
above. Woodyille Republican.

inst says:

his work Of investigating the ones
ton Of whether or not + /. Will
liams had received interest on the
deposited money of the Yazoo-M Mis-
sissippi Delta Levee Board, while
acting as secretary treasurer of the
board, by the refusal Of a number OF
important witnesses TO testify, in
absence OF any power to force them
TO do 50, be has by no means given
up the idea of carrying the investi-
CATION through and recovering what
ever money is found to have been
paid Williams, either directly or in
directly, as interest on the money or
compensation for the use of it by
the several banks in which he de-
posted it from time to time.
Furthermore, Mr.. Adams expects
TO find much more than the $4,000
which he has already reported to
have been paid Williams by a
Clarksdale bank. In his report to
the governor, Mr.. Adams stated that
he was unable and unwilling to say
that Williams did not receive in
directly a matter Of 900 from
another bank in Clarksdale, while
he evidently has a strong suspicion
that a Memphis bank, the officials of
which refused to testify, also paid
interest on money deposited there.
"The suits already filed are in the
chancery court, where there is ample
power to compel the attendance of
witnesses, and the testimony hereto
fore withheld will yet be available.
in justice to the officials of tie
Lower Levee Board, the offices Of
which are located in Greenville, and
the affairs Of which were investi-
gated at the same time and under
the authority Of the same legislative
act, Mr.. Adams states that the re-
port covering this Investigation was
filed with the governor at the same
time as that of the upper board, but
was not given out by Gov. Noel.
In this report it was shown that the
affairs Of the board had been con-
Quoted properly, in strict conformity
with the statutes, and that nothing
wrong was found. He compliments
the two or three men who had been
secretary-treasurers of the board
during the tims covered by his in
vestigation and has requested that
they be given the credit due them"
