Around
from Ottr Own Cvrrmiotulent.
DuLtiTH, Minn., Atig. 22. The rhiialol
phia excursionists made an excursion to-tUy
oer tbe Lake Superior and Mississippi Iliil
joad to Thomson, 2:) uailos, for the purpose
of inFpecting the celebrated slate mining
veins at that point, and viewing the gorgeom
scenery along the St. Louis river, psrticn
laaly the Dalles or Ilapids. These extond for
miles along the river below Thomson and a"
Dbort distance above. The bed of the river
is of rocky formation, and forms an intermi
nable 6eries of shelves or steps, over which
the dark-colored water passes and U chnruel
into foam.
The day commenced very cloudy and
threatening rain, but the excursionists, or
about thirty of them, including seven ladies,
were not dismayed, and though tho rain
fell copiously, they enjoyed the trip
very mncn. Arriving at mom son, tney
dined at a tasty little cottage, in which is lo
oated the oflice of Mr. Arnold, the Superin
tendent of the Lake Superior Slate Mining
Company. The gentlemen inspected the
veins of elate, which, though as yet confined
to the surface, turn out a very superior de
scription of roofing slate. Embarking again,
the train passed over the bridge over the
Dalles, and shortly after passed the
junction of the road with the
Northern Facitic. The train was taken
some distance up tbe Northern Pacific track,
until further progress was arrested by a long
train of platform cars laden with rails for the
present termination of the road. The iron
for fifteen miles of track has now reached
Dulnth, and the progress of the road will be
rtpid. The train being the first containing
passengers that had appeared on the Northern
Pacific track, was greeted with cheers
by tbo track-layers, who turned out
of their houses despite the rain. The
ladies in the party are rather proud of having
teen on the first passenger train on the
Northern Pacific road, and it is fit that their
names fihould be recorded. There were two
Mif6es Felton, Miss Moorhoad, Miss Clarke,
Mies Badger, Miss Ilopkinson, Miss Arnold,
&Ld Mrs. Fulton. The excursionists reached
Duluth on their return about i o'clock.
Tbe rain has caused a change in the
arrangements for the reception this even
ing of the excursionists from St. Paul,
yoo in number, that started for this point.
The procession and illumination that had
been projected were abandoned. The pas
sengers on their arrival disembarked
nearly opposite the Clarke House, the
front of which was decorated with flags,
And the visitors were greeted with the
following motto: "The King of Lakes to the
Father of Waters, greeting." A fine band of
music accompanied them. They were received
with a salute, and the welcoming speech by
tbe Mayor (Culver) of Duluth took place at the
Clarke Ilouse. His remarks were very happy,
and gave due credit to Jay Cooke and the
other capitalists of Philadelphia who had
aided in the construction of the road and
building up Duluth.
Mayor Lee, of St. Paul, responded, and
was followed by Hon. Ignatius Donnelly,
who prophesied that Duluth would yet be
come an arm of the Atlantic by the construc
tion of fchip canals around the Falls of St.
Mary and Niagara, nis speech was received
with great enthusiasm, and the excursionists
were properly provided for at the Clarke
House and on board the steamer Winslow.

.V EDlTOIi PLAYS BABE BALL.
The delightful and tender game of base
ball having broken out with fresh virulence
this season, the following sketch is in or
der: The doctor said we needed exercise. Doc
tor knows. He told us to join base ball:
we joined. Bought a book of instructions.
and for five days studied it wisely if not too
well. Then we bought a sugar-scoop cap, a
red belt, a green shirt, yellow trowsers,
pumpkin-colored shoes, a paper collar, and a
purple necktie, and, with a lot of other dele
gates, moved gently to the ground.
There were two nines. These nines were
antagonists. The ball is a pretty little drop
of softness, size of a goose-egg, and five
degrees harder than a rock. The two nines
play against each other. It is a quiet game,
touch like chess, only a little more chase than
cLe6s.
There was an umpire. His position was a
hard one. He sits on abox, and yells "foul."
His duty is severe.
I took the bat. It is a murderous play
thing, descended from Pocahontas to the head
of John Smith. The man in front of me was
a pitcher. He was a nice pitcher, but he
sent the balls hot. Tbe man behind me was
a catcher. He caught it, too !
Umpire said "play." It is the most radical
play I know of, this base-ball. Sawing cord
wood is moonlight rambles beside base-ball.
So tbe pitcher sent a ball towards me. It
looked pretty coming, so I let it come. Then
he sent another. I bit it with the club, and
fcove it gently upward. Then I started to
walk to tbe first base. Tbe ball hit in the
pitcher's hands, and somebody said be caught
a fly. Alas, poor rly! I walked leisurely
towards the base. Another man took tbe bat.
I turned to Bee how he was making it, and a
mule kicked me on the cheek. The man Raid
it was the ball. It felt like a mule, aud I re
posed on the grass. The ball wont on !
Pretty soon there were two aiore flies, and
three of us flew out. Then tbe other nine
came in, and us nine went out. This was
.better. Just as I was standing on my dignity
in tbe left neld, a bot ball, a they call it,
came .skyrocketing towards we. My eaptain
yelled, "take it !
I hastened gently forward to where the ball
was aiming to descend. I have a good eye
to measure distances, and I saw at a glance
where the little a rolite was to light. I put
up my hands. How sweetly the ball de
scended ! Everybody look el; I felt some
thing warm in my eye. "Muffiu!" yelled
ninety fellows: "Muffin be d d! It's a
cannon ball!" For three days I've hid t-vo
pounds of raw beef on that eye, and yet it
paineth !
TLen I wanted te go home, but my gentle
captain said "nay." So I nayed and stayed,
l'etty soon it was my strike. "To bat!"
y tiled the umpire. I went, but not all serene,
b wis my wont. The pitcher sent in one
biphih. It struck me in the gullet. "Foul,"
yelled the umpire. Ho sent in tho ball again.
This time I took it square and sent it down
tbe right field, through a parlor window, a
kerosene lamp, and rip np against the heai
of an infant who was quietly taking its nap
in his or its mother's arms. Then I slung
the bat and meandered forth to the first base.
I beard high words and looked. When I
slung the bat, I had with it broken the jaw of
tbe umpire and was fined ten cents.
The gamo went on. I liked it. It is so
much fun to run from base to basejnit in
time to be put out, or to chase a ball three-
fourths of a mile down hill, while all the
spectators yell "Multtu!" "go it:" "hone
run!" "go round again!" or "go round a
doen tunes!" Base ball is a sweet little
game. When it came my turn to bat again
I noticed everybody move back about ten
rods! The new umpire retreated twelve rods.
He was timid. The pitcher sent 'em in hot.
Hot balls in time of war are good. But I
don't like 'em too hot for fun. After a while
I got a fair clip at it, and you bet it went cut
ting tho daisies down the right field. A fat
man and dog sat in the shade of an oak, en
joying the game. The ball broke oue leg of
tbe dog, and landed, like a runaway engine,
in the corporosity of the fat man. He was
taken home to die.
Then I went on a double-quick to the field,
and tried to stop a bot ball. It came toward
me from the bat at the rate of nine miles a
minute. I put np my hands the ball went
sweetly binging on its way, with all tho skin
from my palms with it.
More raw beef.
That was an eventful chap who first in
vented base ball. It's such fun. I've played
five games, and this is the result:
" Twenty-seven dollars paid out for things.
One buDged eye badly bunged.
One broken little finger.
One bump on the head.
Nineteen lame backs.
A sore jaw.
One thumb dislocated.
Three sprained ankles.
Five swelled legs.
One dislocated shoulder, from trying to
throw the ball a thousand yards.
Two hands raw from trying to stop hot balls.
A lump the size of a hornet's nest on left
hip, well back.
A nose sweetly jammed, and five uniforms
spoiled from rolling in the dirt at tb? 4?sen-
I have played two weeks, and don't tfflnk
I like the game. I've looked over tbe scorer's
book, and find that I've broken several bats,
made one tally, broken one umpire's jaw,
broken ten windows in adjoining houses,
killed a baby, broke the leg of a dog, mor
tally injured the bread-basket of a spectator,
knocked five other players out of time by
slinging my bat, and knocked the waterfall
from a school-marm who was standing twonty
rods from the field, a quiet looker-on.
I've used up fifteen bottles of arnica lini
ment, five bottles of lotions, half a raw beef,
and am so full of pain that it seems as if my
limbs were but broken bats, and my legs the
limbs of a dead horso-chesnut.
ANESTHETIC ANECDOTES.
A Alan Chloroformed and Ilobbed on the Street
How It was Hone
The Cincinnati rimes of Thursday says:
A respectable looking gentleman called at our
onwe this morning ami told the following story :
My name, he said, Is Major King. 1 used to live in
tins city and did busluenn hero during the years
154, &3 aud '56. A few days since I returned to the
city from a lengthy absence In the West, having In
my possession a large amount of money. Night be
fore last, early in the evening, I was playing bil
liards at TlHl. Ticman's saloon, when a bov handed
me a note, signed by a friend s name, requesting me
to step out on the sidewalk, as he wanted to see me.
I Immediately went out, but instead of seeing the
friend from whom the note purported to have corae,
met three men, strangers to me, one of whom, how
ever, stepped up, called me by name, grasped my
hand, shaking it cordially. This person then intro
duced me to the other two men, aud a conversation
ensued, but upon what subject I do not now re
member. During this conversation I became unconscious.
When I resumed consciousness I found myself
standing on Sixth street, about a square and a half
distant from Tienian's saloon. Tho first thing I re
member noticing was a powerful odor of chloro
form, which seemed to emanate from my breast.
Placing my hand on my shirt front, 1 lound It satu
rated with chloroform.
My next thought was of my pocket-book, and I
placed my hands in my pants pockets only to find
that they had both been thoroughly sifted. Tiie
pocket-book contained fiso. I was so much affected
by the influence of the chloroform that I could not
remember the name of my hotel.
Mr. King further says that he does not remember
smelling the chloroform before he became uncon
scious. He thinks he has been followed from the West by
a party of villains who knew that he brought with
him a large amount of money, which they hoped to
obtain in this way. Fortunately he had deposited
the most of it In bank immediately alter bis arrival
in the city. The case is one of the most peculiar
and mysterious that ever came under our notice.
Eiher Turbine the Heads of Both Niirfeoo and
t Patient A Terrific Struggle la tbe Operating
' Choir.
Between 1 aud 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, says
the J'ortland (Me.) Anju of the 2Mh Inst., Mr.
Andrews, of India street, a gentleman of about 55
yrars, stepped into Dr. Benjamin II. Ordway'e oillce,
at No. 18 Federal street, to have treated a sore on
his hand. lie saw the doctor then, aud the next
time either of the two men are spoken of is when
the doctor went into the room where the servant
girl was (she being the only person in the house be
sides the two men). His appearance frightened the
girl, for lie was literally covered with blood from his
head to his feet, and she was sti'l further frightened
by the doctor's using a terrible threat In speaking of
"that man."
Why she did not look into the matter then does
not appear; but about the time given above a man
rushed up toofucer Neth (sterling and told him his
presence was needed at Dr. Ordwar's at once. He
hastened there, aud found a crowd about the door of
the house. Entering he was shown into the doctor's
ottlce. There a sickening sight met his eyes. The
doctor lay back in an easy chair all besmeared with
blood aud stupefied. The man Audrews was
stretched out on the floor. Tbe ottloer spoke to the
doctor and received no response. The man was
also speechless.
Oillcer sterling requested a bystander to call the
nearest doctor, and Dr. .Woods was 8.on prv.seut.
The man, in the meantime, had been able to tall
in a stupid way his story, lie had called, as abave
refeiredto, but knew not what took place from 2
till after 7 o'clock, by the side of the man wai a large
bottle of ether, and he thought he had taken some,
and no doubt he had been under the influence ail
the time. Scattered on the floor were surgical in
sirumeuts ef all kinds, towels and cloths wriuglug
wet with blood.
One of the doctor's hands was cut, and from the
hand of the man before him the bloa 1 was forming
a pool on the tloor. This hand, which looked inure
like a piece of fresh beef tliau anrlhiuir else, had
! eight long cuts lu it, aud all deep to the bones. The
back of the hand, perfectly sound before, was slit
1 open, and cuts or the thumb extended to the wrist,
. Ordway was put to bed, and a poUceinau left to
I guard him. Audrews was taken home, and his
wounds dressed. He will lose his thumb, if not the
i use of the hand. Ordway could say but litcla in de
i it-hse, but wanted to refer it to a jury of doctors.
i AX UXJiATUKAL MOTIIEi:.
,
The Child Murder nod Nalclde lit Iowa Sin.
auiar Miuteiueut ol ibe tluabaud.
j A few days since the reader was shocked by a
, brief report by telegraph that a woman in Haven-
port, Iowa, had drowned her two little children In a
: piil f water, aud then jumped iuto a well, where
she was found, also dead. It seems that the
I woman husband, Mr. Kuug, a German, nad in
. formed one of hi nemibors that he saw his wife
ilrowu herself. They had some pecuniary eiaar
rspsuieiile, and were obliged to sell some of their
goods. "It was duriug his absence in town, alter
having disposed of some of their silverware, that
Mrs. Ku-iig murdered the eli'lrtrnn. I'poti being
examined, Kaug told the following singular
ktorv:
When I went down town Saturday evening I did
not know how much water was iu the house; my
wife and our two children were in the front room
when 1 left; I do not know whether my wife wa
in bed or not ; our oldest child was up ; u wa about
S T. M. when I took the silverware and went np i
to Mr. Hoi fs; I returned home about o'clock;
the children were np; we all slept In the front
room : In the day time I put one of tin? bed in
the back room, and sometimes the children
lay on it there; most of the silverware we had
was given us by my father; some wa ours
together; it was 1 my wife's suggestion to
sell 'the silverware; when I returned from down
town in the evening I found the house dark; I lit a
candle and saw our oldest child lying dead upon the
floor of the bed-room; our little boy was lying with
his head in the drinking-water bucket; I at on ;e
went into the yard and saw my wife at the well; I
went to her; she told me what she had done; 1
asked her to come Into the house; 1 laid the chil
dren on the bed and asked mv wife how she could
do so; we then rubbed them and tried to bring them
to life; when they could not be 'brought
alive' my wife said we hid better fol
low the children, and drown ourselves
In the well; I thought we should do so, for I could
not think of going to the police court and telling
my wife had drowned our children; we agreed to
kill ourselves, and shook hands and walked to the
well, climbed over the curb aud together jumped In.
(The well Is 81 Inches in diameter, 15 feet In depth,
with 20 Inches of water in it, walled up with rock.
Surrounding the well is a curb 4 feet square, 2 feet
high; across the centre is the windlass, upon which
was tho rope, bucket, and chain.) When wo got
down into tho well my wife held her head under
the water and died; I tried to put my head under,
but could not get It down deep enough ; the water
choked me ; I raised up and found my wife was dead ;
1 changed my mind, and concluded to shoot my
self ; I climbed np out of the well, and went Into
the house to shoot myself; when I saw my two little
children lying there dead, I thought I co ildnotdo
it; I had a single-barrelled gun, but I was too weak
to get it down from over the door and load it; I had
F owner, snot, ami caps in tne nousc: I men tnongnt
would go to my friend, Mr. Rolf 9, and tell him
what had happened ; I did so, and asked him not to
tell of this bad business until Sunday morning; I
intended to kill myself before morning, anil I did
not think Mr. Rolfs conld stop me: we went back to
the honse and got my wife out of the well, and soon
after I was taken 'in custody and brought here (to
the jail)."
The coroner's Jury returned a verdict In accord
ance with this statement, and Kecng was held to
aniwer tho charge of being accessory to his wife's
death.
