Becker County Farmer Then Ends
His Own Life.

An innocent and defense1ess boy of
twelve years was murdered by Louis
Johnson, farmer living in the town of
Green Valley, Becker county The lad
was stepson of Johnson and was
shot dead with a rifle
After committing the foul deed
Johnson turned his gun upon himself
and fired a shot which ended his own
life.
The murder and suicide occurred in
some woods near the home of the
JOhnsons. The murderer and suicide
was about forty-fve years old.
Johnson had a daughter by his first
wife and fears that she would be dis
possessed of his property, in the event
of his death and that the stepson
would inherit it, are supposed to have
led to the tragedy. The first husband
of Mrs. Johnson, a man by the name
of Hill, also died a suicide in the same
neighborhood about eight years ago.

FOR CONTEMPT OF COURT
Sentence of Minneapolis Attorney A.
firmed on Appeal.

The sentence Of E. S. Cary, the
well known Minneapolis lawyer who
was given thirty days in the work
house for contempt of court by the
Hennepin county district court, has
been confirmed by the state supreme
court and Mr.. Cary will be forced to
serve his month in the workhouse
Disbarment proceedings are now
pending against him, and will be heard
on June 2. Both actions arose out of
Cary's conduct of the defense in the
case of the state against Baker. The
attorney called opposing counsel "a
stiff" and swore in the presence of
the court
In it's unanimous decision the su.
preme court finds that Cary conduct.
ed the case in an unprofessional and
| contemptuous manner. When he was
| asked to show cause why he should
| not be punished for contempt he made
no excuse nor apology.
1--WE are unable to say said the
court, that the penalty inflicted was
not warranted by the facts and the
judgment is accordingly affirmed"

CUCUMBER CLAIMS.
How Our Alaskan Citizens Stake Out

How Our Alaskan Citizens Stake Out
A cucumber does not stand much
show on the Seward peninsula, Alaska,
according to Henry NJ Hoyt, ex-dis-
trict attorney at Nome, who amused
the house committee on territories at
Washington the other day by describ-
ing the agricultural possibilities of the.
far northwest. Mr.. Hoyt gave the
committee lis views on bill provid-
Ing for a legislative council for Alaska,
but branched off upon the subject Of
vegetables.
You can grow cucumbers and let.
tuce upon the Seward peninsula" he
said, 'by planting close to the steam
exhaust of an electric light house.
When a cucumber vine shows signs of
fructifying a fellow may take a visit
ing card, tie it to the vine and thus
stake claim upon the cucumber
When the cucumber grows up it is
the property of the claim holder
"How about fruit? You can grow
that, can't your asked Chairman
Hamilton.
1T will have to be hardy fruit with
the thermometer 80 below sometimes"
responded Mr.. Hoyt.
The witness said he knew nothing
about the agricultural conditions in the
interior, which were painted in glow
ing colors by Delegate Wickersham of
Alaska.
Mr.. Hoyt, who is now attorney gen
eral for Porto Rico, told the committee
that the character Of the floating pop
ulation of Alaska made inadvisable an
elective legislature. He recommended
the appointment Of it's members by
the president, saying that the people
Of Alaska were too widely separated
to get together on local needs and cleo
lions. A legislature in part elected
and in part appointed, he said, also
would bring trouble, as petty jealousies
would crop out constantly.

Famous hunnOTist Passes Away
at Redding, Conn
VICTIM OF ANGINA PECT0RIS
End Is fastened BY Grief and
Great Agony Of Body.

Redding, Conn, April 22.-Samuel
Langhorne Clemens ('sMark TWain")
died painlessly of angina pectoris.
He lapsed into coma at o'clock in
the afternoon and never recovered
consciousness. It was the end of a
man outworn by grief and acute agony
of body.
Wednesday was a bad day for the
little knot of anxious watchers at the
bedside. For long hours the gray,
aquiline features lay nodded in the
inertia of death, while the pulse sank
lower and lower, but late at night
Mark Twain passed from stupor into
the first natural sleep he had known
since he returned from Bermuda and
in the morning he woke refreshed,
even family cheerful, and in full pos
session of all his faculties.
He recognized his daughter Clara,
Mrs. Ossip Gabrilovitch, spoke ra-
tional word or two and, feeling him
self unequal to conversation, wrote
out in pencil: Give me my glasses y
They were his last words. Laying
them aside he sank first into reverie
and later into final Inconsistencies.
At the deathbed were only Mrs. Ga
brilovitch, her husband, Ossip Gabrilo-
witch, DR.. Robert Halsey, DR.. Quin-
tard, Albert Bigelow Paine, who will
write Mark Twain's biography, and the
two trained nurses. Restoratives-
digitalis, strychnine and camphor-
were administered, but the patient
failed to respond
Was Native of Missouri.
Mr.. Clemens first saw the light in
the little town of Florida, Mo-, Nov.
80, 1885.
His boyhood was not unlike that of
Tom Sawyer, the character he created
to become the hero of other American
boys for generations to follow. Young
Clemens received but scanty school
education; in fact, it is suspected that
Mark Twain and Tom Sawyer were
one
Samuel L. Clemens was a man who
saw only the best in life; he ever re-
fused to see anything else.
In grinding poverty, in aff1uence,
surrounded by happy family, or
standing at the bier of a loved one,
Mark Twain never gave up to despair
Few among us have known grief as
bitter as he. Few men still have con-
tributed as much to the joy of the
world
Frontier reporter, miner, steamboat
pilot, captain of finance, bankrupt, sue
cessful author, no matter what his
station in life for the moment, Mark
Twain was always the same genial
friend and companion.
Simple funeral services over the
remains of Mr. Clemens were held
in New York city and the body was
inferred in the family plot at Elmira
beside those of his wife, two daugh
tiers and an infant son.
