Is SENTENCED
But Sentence is Suspended
Until the March Term Of
Court at Least

Frank RassIer, who was found guilty
of perjury at tho November session Of
the district court, for his testimony
given against Joe Kennedy IN the
latter's trial IN the Klntcp murder
case, and who had been granted stay
of sentence to the January session.
appeared before the court Wednesday
afternoon to receive his sentence.
William Wllke, the Grey Eagle
banker, appeared before the court at
this time and IN an able plea Tor
Rassler, stating that the latter has
during his stay in Grey Eagle been q
desirable citizen, and that if sentence
were passed or him the mans wife,
who is at present in Ill health, and
little daughter would be deprived of
their only provider and rendered
destitute. DR.. E. r. Storey of Grey
Eagle told. of Mrs. Rassler's physical
and mental condition, stating that
we're her husband to be sent to the
penitentiary she would either become
mentally unbalanced or 1t might
possibly cause her death.
County Attorney Cameron stated
that he would be satisfied were the
minimum sentence passed on Ras'
s1er, but that he should be sent to the
tor time at least as an
example to others who might be
inclined to perjure themselves.
The extent to which Rassier had
suffered in a social way through his
being branded q perjurer, was called
to mind by Mr.. Wllke, and he then
asked that the court, under a certain
law passed at the last session of the
legislature, suspend sentence and have
a probation officer appointed to watch
over him and report to the court.
Rassier was then called to the
bench to receive his sentence, and the
court sentenced HIM to serve a year
and six months at hard labor in the
state penirentiary as punishment tor
his crime, but citing the jury 3
for mercy, the court
the execution of the
sentence until the first day of the
March term, and appointed William
Wilke as probation officer to watch
over him and report his conduct to
the court, but he can be taken up at
any time without notice to serve the
sentence. At that time the court
may grant q further suspension of
execution of the sentence, being
guided by the mans conduct in the
interim IN this regard, but under the
law the suspension cannot be for
longer than the maximum penalty that
can be imposed for the crime COM
mitted, which In this case would be
five years. at the end of which time
sentence would have to be revoked or
executed

Reversal of Conditions.

THE present high prices of food"
said an elderly man, remind me of the
agitation over the introduction of har-
vesting machinery. People thought it
would throw a great many farm labor
ers out OF work and ruin the industry
generally. So bitter was the feeling
that several factories for the making
by incendiaries. Now machinery is
employed on the farm to an extent
never dreamed OF then, yet agricultu-
raj labor is scarce, even at high wages,
and the products bring better prices
than ever before.-New York Tribune.

Healed Birds Broken Lea.

In the case of crane fine results
are claimed for broken leg. It's slen
der limb is no thicker than a lead
pencil. Instead of destroying the poor
bird, an English expert decided to try
to save leg and life. Linen bandages
dipped in gum were put on. These
set satisfactorily and weighed little or
nothing. After this the intelligent
bird kept to itself and needed no
further attention for a few weeks
When the bandage was cut away the
leg worked as well as ever, slightly
deformed. Some naturalists say that
birds breaking their legs set them
themselves, using sticky mud and
weeds or grass for bandage.-New

Would Sell Mountain.

There is peculiar proposal under
consideration by the authorities of
Veybaux. in Switzerland, who have
been approached with a proposal for
the purchase of a mountain in the
neighborhood. The mountain is val
ued at some $4,000, and as it is diff
cult of access, it is proposed to con-
struct one of those wonderful rail-
ways to be seen at Pilatus or the Rigi,
and then to establish hotels on the
top. Of course the commune is poor,
and the "Conscript Fathers" think the
purchase price would prove a wind

Milk Delivery in South Africa,

Until quite recently the dairymen
of Salisbury, South Africa, used the
native in preference to the usual cart
for delivering milk. The native wears
a canvas bottleholder, capable of car
rying Is bottles with the minimum
risk of breakage. This mode of milk
carrying was really forced upon the
dairymen by their losses in the early
days from horse sickness, and from
the inability of the raw native to
handle horses and mules, much less
drive the cart itself without capsizing.
The last year, however, has seen the
passing away of this custom. milk now
being delivered in prosaic but bust
nesslike fashion by carts and by boys
on bicycles. In the latter case the
canvas bottle carriers are still worm
