Death From a Cow's Kick.

son of X. It. Fryer, proprietor of the Man

years, from the effects of a kick on the
breast by cow received nearlv six months

sicians. The young n an was taken very
sick immediately after the kick, and gradu-
a'!.v became weaker, suffering little or no
pain. To relieve the pus accumulated over
his right lung an openir g was made, and in
the matter dischargisl were found bread
crnmbs, seeds from berries, and other small
particles of food which he ate. The incision
was made between thu third and fourth

toli, collection t erfc in the Ba lk of Wheel
ing, ou a charge of stealing about 1.',CM
frotu the bank, caused a great sensation here.
The money was taken at diffenut times, the
last installment, a psekage containing 24,
, being taken atx.al three months ago.
Kecently Seyhold. announced that he liad
drawn a large sum in the Louisiana lottery.
This first aroused suspicion in the minds of
the bank othcials. They then consulted
Captain B. B. Dovtrner, who worked tbe
rase up and found that geybold bad a good
Utu! of iiwmy iu ither Wbrtling banks.
Among these, an account of uboot l.'i,SW
liad beeh ojiened some lime si at the Bank
of Hie CHiio Valley, in the name of Sejbold
A Uennig, the mendrs of tbn firm being
Harry SeyUjld and George Hcnnig, a tinig
clerk.
AShC-TtD AT JIIUBIOUT.
The arrest of Seybohl took piae about
midnight He at first denied the charge
when taken before 'Squire Arkle, but a little
questioning by Captain Povener and the in
formation that Hennig s evidence bad been
taken brought him into a different frame of
mind, and he coufsssed all. He turned over
Jl.CwJ in the Bank of the Ohio Valley, gave
a ded for his house, which is worth !2,"A
and ttiso gave up some slocks and small de
posits in other banks.
The story Srybold told Hennig to aixxMint
for his having the large sum of lucnry be
proposed f deposit in the Back of the Ohio
Vallty, was that he had effected a loan of
$l.,0o0 from Anton neyraann, the well
known brewer, and he gare ai his reason for
wishing to make it a partnership deposit
that he did not want it known that he had
the money. Hennig was released on Iwnd
and Seybo.'d was committed to jail.
Hcniiig was an entirely innocent party in
the affair and w ill not be prosecuted.
THE TOTAL A a" of XT mts.
As near as can be ascertained, the total
amount of Seylnjld's stealings, extending
over a jieriod of two years, is .'!T.7. He
simply took the money and very wisely
never attempted to cover tip b: tracks by
falsifying t ae ai-counts. This afternoon Sey
br' ieedej over some niore property, which
wiih the money recovered and the property
deeded over this morning, fully covers the
amount taken. After this wai done, ihe
amount of bail required was reduced from
jdo.OoO to Jl.tWJ -and this amount being
given by bis father, the cashier of the bank,
he was released from jail. He will stay here
and stand trial. The probability is he will
plead guilty and ask for executive clemency.
The statutes provide from two to ten years'
imprisonment.
Many find in the character of his mental
capacity somewhat of an excuse for him. He
says he is glad the exjiosure has been made,
not that be trs troubled to any extent over
the taking of the money, but he was tor
mented by the thought thai it was Ids work
that was tUHkiiij; an innocent party suffer.
Thii innocent one was a son of the head of
the bank, who w as finally discharged, the be
lief being that be was the thief. Iu order to
shield his son, Mr. List, the head of the
bank, bad charged to his personal account
all of Seybold's theft previous to the taking
cf the package of 2$.ufj. rather than have'
exposed what he supposed, and everyone
else supposed, to be bis ton's trims.
took a bold nut).-
As late as yesterday morning, when Sey
bold began to be suspicious that he was be
ing closed in on, he said in a private confer
ence of the bank officials that if a word of
suspicion was uttered against him he would
exjKjse Mr. List add his eon, and disgrace
the family. This nearly let Seyhold out, for
Mr. List ordered the $.'4,110 to be charged to
his Account with the other supposed thefts
of bia son, but hif 8 m-in-law fUlly refused
to countenance anything lliU time, but
thorough investigation.
To show how bright Seyhold K it may be
said that previous to his recent marriage he
paid devoted attention to a 14 year old girl,
and wanted to marry her.h'H was prevented
by his parents. He met the girl who is now
his wife on a Wednesday night, and married
heron the next Sunday.
The search of Hcybold's house was a great
revelation to tbe omcialg of (he bank when
tbev visited it in company with wo deputy
sheriffs and Captain B. ii. Bovener, the law
yer. The house was built in the fall of 'o,
about the time Mr. fsVyboid was married to
Miss It rsenberg, daughter of a well known
contractor. H is elegantly furnished and
contains a ball room, something no other

Twice Hanged Before Death.
LorisviLLK, Ky., July .'it. Charles Dilger,
the murderer of two policemen last August,
and Harry Smart, murderer of Meisner
Green Bud wile, were hanged at G 05 this
morning. Sinsrt laughed as he stepped on
the scaffjld. He probably died instantly.
When Bilger's body dropped, tha end of
the roe which formed the knot was secu to
unravel and the noose refused to tighten.
The knot was so far untied as to be only
held in place by one coil, and the roe was
caught directly under the point of his chin.
The scene was sickening. It could be teen
at a glance that death would not result in
side of two or three hours unless something
was done, and the strained breathing of tha
unfortunate man could be heard ov r the en
tire jard. Two of the officers leaned down
through the trap and, catching hold of tha
noose near the neck, drew Bilger's body
back through the opening on to the plat
form. A new rope was brought into service
and when the noose was adjusted. Pilfer
asked: '-What's the matter?" Ou being
told "the rope has slipped its knot," he said :
"This shows I should not die." He placed
himself upon the trap the second time by
making two hops.
The drop was sprung the second time at
i:0S. The new roj also seemed reluctant
to do its duty, and the knot slipcd clear
around to the back of his neck. It tighten
ed, however, and the work was done. At
li.3.' he was pronounced dead.
After Two Months.
Wiluamspokt. August 3 A wonderful
story of the recent fl.xsl is related by a lum
berman. The other day a gang of men were
at work on Burrows' Island removing the
logs and boards. As they cleared away the
debris they came upon a pile of logs in the
shape of a cone at least a dozen feet high.
The logs were in gijh a symiuetrical shape
that it looked as though they were put tor
gethtr by human hands. The cone was
hollow, and as the men proceeded with tjieir
work of demolition they detected a smull
which suggested that there was a dead ani
mal close at bund. Log after log was re
moved, when, to their amazement, they be
held a mastiff dog. The animal wagged bis
tail and whined when be saw the men, and
seemed gladdened at the prospect of being
liberated frora bis prison.
In another portion of the cone-shaped cell
was the carcass of a cow. By some freak of
tbe rushing waters the dog and cow were
caught in this pen on June 2, the cow being
crushed in the jam of logs. The canine was
sleek and fat when liberated and looked
none the worse Lit his tvo months' impris
onment. He has become greatly attached
to the men on the island and occasional ly
takes a meal on the dead cow. Where the
animal came from is not known, and there
wiil be no special effort made to ascertain its
forme owner.

burins trail HorJbory.
K Ajfs Citt, Bl(-i A l?ist t. O'lc of the
boldest and most daring train robberies ever
p repot rated in Missouri occurred ou tbe Wa
bavli train, which left tbe Union deptn at
8.20 o'clock last night. Tbe train, which
was made up of a smoker, two sleepers for
St. Louis, an Illinois Central coach and the
St. Paul coach, in the ordrr named, had
pulled out of Harlem, where it was due at
8:35 and bad run a distance of about four
miles, when two men entered the rear door
of the St. Paul sleeper. One of them hat!
utilised a white handkerchief as a mask, and
the ot her a red one. They ordered all the
asse!!irrrs to hoi 1 up tlieir hands and enforc
ed their oldtT w ith a brace of Colt's revol
vers. On of them approached each Jsissen
ger, and. while the other kept watch of the
victims, took everything of value that oould
be conveniently found. There were only a
few passengers in tbe or and the work of
robbery was soon completed. As soon as all
had been relieved of their valuables, amount
ing to $173 in cash and two gold walcbea.
the robbers backed out of the front door of
tbe car, being careful to keep their shooting
irons pointed toward the helpless travelers.
They stepped on the platform and just as
thy were about to enter the Illinois Centra!
coach. Conductor Roach came out of the
door, being on his first trip through the cars
to collect tares. Une of the robbers pushed
his revolver under the conductor's nose, and
with an oath crtlertsl bim to throw up his
lan Is. The conductor supposed f oni the
n tture of their disguise that a numher of
railroad men who had taken pfi-r.'e on the
train were playing a practical joke on him.
With a lauh he attempted to push past
them and enter tLe slecjer. Just then t gust
of wind swept aside the ms-ks of the rob
bers and thcu he knew the affair was one of
dead earnest. He bad no weapon, but he
carried his lantern in his hand, and with
that be dealt one of the men a vicious blow
on the bead, smashing the lantern's glass and
extinguishing the light. Simultaneously
with his assault the other rubber fired a shot
at him with his revolver. The aim was bad
and the bullet missed its mark. The first
robber had by this time recovered himself
and be too took a shot at the conductor. His
aim was no more precise than his partner's.
The robbers then, with one more parting
shot, txua;' off f mm the steps of 'lie car.
The train was running at tint rule of twenty
five miles an hour, to.) fajt for any one, ex
cept nnder desperate chances, to jump off
without endangering his life, and conductor
Uoach did not attempt it. He swung beyond
the side of the car, however, and saw the
robbers arise and make with all haste for
the dirt road that leads to EinsasCity, That
was the last seen of them.
One of the passengers in the St. Paul coach
who had been nibbed, when he heard the
firing on the platform, pulled the curd that
f-onneciii! with the air-brsike, and the train
came to a standstill. By this time the train
had run a mile beyond the place w here the
robbers had escaped.
W. II. Bonnell, special agent of the road,
was a passenger in the smoking car. When
the train came to a sudden stop he rushed
out to ascertain the cause, learning from
the conductor the occurrence of the robbery,
lie immediately set to work, to begin the
chase fijr the robbers. He ordered the en
gineer to run the train t rfandolph, a few
miles ahead, and tl.tre he tjncQji:ed the
engine and ran it back to Harlem. There
he founu Deputy Sheriff Tomilson, who at
once organ ized a posse and started in pursuit
of the fleeing robbers. I'p to 3 o'clock this
morning no trace of them had been discov
ered. Mr. B mnell, afer he had taken every
possible step to insure the capture of the fu
gitives at Randolph, came to Kansas City,
where he arrived at 4 o'clock and rep.irteJ
the robbery at police headquarters.
Tbe Sheriffs posse tracked the robbers to
a bend in the river, where Ihe truck was lost.
They had stolen a horse from a furmer nam
ed Kvans. and rode double on it until they
reached the river.

life," the more particularly since the experi
ments by I)r. William A. Hammond were
made publin, and while the msjority are
skeptical, and are making merry both at the
expense of Brown-Scquard and Hammond,
Dr. D. M. Purnam, of this city, assisted by
Dr. Theodore Parker, is making exjierinients
with a view of testing what virtue lies in
Ihe pretended discovery. A patient has
been found in the person of Xoah A- Clarke,
aged SO, of 4W North Kew Jersey street,
who suffers with rheumatism, and from dis
ease contracted in the war. He is regarJed
as a fit subject.
This morning a lamb was selected and
killed, and tliepirts were cut and ounded
in a mortar and thoroughly 'tritqrated."
Two draclmii of witer were added, and the
preparation was carefully filtered, itnd the
result was a reddish fluid.ths elixir. One
and one-half drams of this solution was
ejected into the arm of Mr. Clarke, near the
shoulder, with an ordinary hypodermic syringe.-
Pour hours later Mr. Clarke walked
down town unaided, covering a distance in
twenty-five minutes which he Insisted form
erly took him on hour, and he claimed to
have a new vitality, and to leel as ho had
not felt for twenty-five years. "I have a
new vitality, said he, exultantly. "I do
not drag my feet along, nd it is no trouble
to hold my head. I used to go along bent
over. The doctor noticed an improved look
in my eyes. and ,nore strength in my walk.
Before, I could not read a newspaper w ithout
glasses, as I now can. The injection has
certainly done me good."
While Clarke was talking his complexion
and eyes clearly indicated an exhilarated
state, and, although Dr. Purnam is taking
no stock in the Brown-Scquard "elixir of
life," the results from this one dose surprised
him.
Cold In Ohio.
Ciscissati. August 3 For several years
gold in small quantises has been found in
Clermont county, this Slate, not more than
20 miles from Cincinnati. Inexperienced men
have worked over the ground at intervals, and
in their small findings have made probably
$1 W day each. About a week ago two ex
perienced miners, who had received speci
mens of tbe ore from the farm of John Wood,
jn Clermont county, looked over the ground
thoroughly and then went to work. They
say that a discovery like they have made, if
made anywhere in the mining regions of the
Wes, woqld attract ?,) niinprs within 48
hours. The miners are a Mr. Baldwin and
J. 8. Jennings. The former Is a native New
Yorker and the latter is an Ohioau. Both
were astonished to-day to barn that their
business in Clermont county, had been found
out by the newsxipcrs, and gave up what in
formation they bad very reluctantly.
Vnlil the arrival of these miners no at
tempts were ever male to tunnel into trie
bill where gold is found. Only placer min
ing has been carried on, and that by inexjie
rienced men. Not a par.fnl ol the earth cau
be gathered up anywhere about this hill in
which traces of gold can't be found. Usually
the gold is in minute specks, but frequently
buttons of good sizj are discovered, some as
large as buckshot.
So confident are the miners that they have
struck a rich lead that they have perfected
plans to sink a shaft and at once begin tun
neling to the spot whence the surface gol.I
comes.

An Uoropr In Chicago.
Ci!i i.:o, Aug-.ist I. A horse with ell the
symptom of hydrophobia ran amuck on
Bobey street yesterday afternoon, and was
finally killed beneath the shadow of the
Moody tent, at Milwaukee avenue.
No tiger of tbe jungle could have created
more of a sensaiion or shown a more vicious
desire to cxtreminat man aud beast. Two
rueji were bitten and eight horses torn by
the teeth of the maddened animal.
A thousand people joined in the hunt to
destroy the brute. F'or two hours they
chanl up and down the streets and alleys
pursuing aud pursued. For policemen, with
Lieutenant I'enseu, joined in the crowd.
Shortly after uoon Mr. Brickson attempt
ed to hitch his horse to bis luewt market de
livery wagon, in front of bi More. The
animal was of a gentle disposition, small, and
without a trick or vicious habit. When the
horse was led from the ban: be showed
signs of anger. Suddenly throwing buck
his tars, be sunk Lis teeth in Mr. Ericksou's
arm. and, rearing, struck his master with
his fore feet. Tha attack caused Mr. E.-ick
son to drop the halter. Tbe instant the
horse was fio he resumed the attack, and
chased hit master into the meat shop.
The infuriated beat then started south on
Bobey street. lie put men, women and
children to flight, charghing at every one ho
chaiuvd to meet or overtake. In rushing
after three women and several children he
ran over two little girls, knocking them
down, but only slightly b n'sirg them. The
o hers ecad, one of the women climbing
a fence i nd the others, with the screaming
children, ran up the steps into the door of a
house near by. When Hearing North ave
nue, Conductor Duffey, of the North avenue
line, sir) ped off his car and caugLt hold of
the animal's halter. He supposed it was
simply a runaway horse. Tbe animal made
a vii ions snap at him, catching his riuht
hand with his teeth and taking out skin
and flesh. Tbe conductor let go of the hal
ter and jumped -n the car, the horse billing
and striking al him.
As the horse went down Mllwiukre
avenue he ran at everything he saw, ar.d
took a peculiar fancy for attacking his own
kind. Every horse he passed, and there
were eight of them, he nipped in the side.
He tore large pieces of hide from tbe ribs of
some. Others he caught where he could, but
always left the murk of his teeth. The ani
mals thus injured became in turn demoral
ized ami added to the excitement.
The police finally drove the horse from
the street to a vacant lot. Lieutenant Beli
ze!! made a lasso of a clothes line. Standing
on the sidewalk be made bis throw. The
line straightened out in regular Mexican
style and settled around the horse's hind
leg. Trie animal started away and the officer
took a turn around a convenient post. This
upset the horse and in a moment four bullets
were fired into the brute's head.
Mr. Erickson's aim was cauterize!. He
and his family are in an agony of fright as
to the resu Is that may follow the bile, as he
is in g-eat pain. Mr. Erickson thinks the
horse was bitten by a mad d g about two
weeks ago.
Sitting Bull Raises a Row.
SriMinx.i U k. Dak, August 4. A final
Council was held yesterday afternnon, with
ull the Chiefs present but Gall and Kunning
Antelope. Grass made a speech, in which he
said as his friends at the other agencies had
broken their promise not to sign the treaty
he was now willing to accept the treaty.
Mad Bear followed to the yiras effect, as did
Wolf Necklace.
JVhen the signing was about to begin. Sit
ting Bull, who had come up with his band
mounted on their ponies, entered the circle
and asked to talk. This being considered
too late he was refused. He retired in angor
and when John Grass,? Mad ' Bear. Big
Head and Deer Face had signed the. bill, be
ing the first names, he ordered his young
men to stampede the crowd who were gath
ering around the tables. A rush on horse
hack was male which-scattered the crowd
right and left, but by tbe prompt action of
Agent McLaughlin the attempted disturb
ance was quelled.
A strong force of police were soon placed
in position and several of the young braves
taken into custody, after which Sitting Bull
retired to his camp followed by his baud.
This little episode ovr the Indians again
congregated about tbe tables. and thesigning
went on as rapidly as four clerks could iden
tify and inscribe the names. About 4X)
names were soon taken, and it is thought
the signing will continue until the majority
of the signatures will be obtained.
,
A Marvelous Fast.
Ikiiiasiapous Aug. I. Robert Marvel, of
Pike township, this county, has reached the
fiftieth day of his fast. A doctor from this
city goes out every fifth day. The doctor
said to-night that Marvel has not eaten an
ounce of solid food in it) days, and may
live on in this way for lUiL He continued:
"That story recently published about his
eating a piece of pie and some other things is
untrue. During all these days he has taken
several pints of milk. He is quite vigorous
and pugilistic. This fa..ting has entirely
changed his nature. lltTore lie was very
genial, now lie is ready to fiht anyone who
conies near hit bed. I have great trouble in
filling his pulse. He strikes at me. and if I
get my hand on hit wrist he twists it until I
have to let go."
The disease Mr. Marvel is suffering from,
the doctor thinks, has affected his brain. It
is a disease of the arteries. Bound, bony
accumulations can be felt in the arteries at
tbe wrist, and are probably present through
out the sys'em. These cause paralysis of
tbe swallowing apparatus, which prevents
the taking in of food. Marvel is 8(1 years old.
Early Start for the Poorhouse.
BiAtuxu, August 1. There is a little girl
about seven years of age at St. Catharine's
Orphan Asylum in this city who is mystify,
ing everybody. She was picked up a day or
two ago out on the three-mih-house road,
and when questioned, said she was going to
the oorhouse, as both her parents were
dead and she had no place else to go.
The spectacle of such a little" tot striking
out for the almshouse alone, led to the belief
that there was something unuMial iu the
case, and she was brought back to the city
to see if some of ber friends could be found.
She said her name was Keiser and that her
parents had died arid been buried the week
before, but said she could not tell where she
lived.
Inquiry developed the fact that no one by
the name ol Reiser had been buried iu this
city for a long lime, and she was put through
a close course of questioning in order tq
find out if possible who she really was and
to discover the motive she had for oon dealing
hor name and identity.
8he, however, stuck to her story, and all
efforts have failed to elicit any knowledge of
her or to explain her strange behavior.
A Cirl's Hair Stolen.
PoTTsviLia, August 3. This morning
Clara K eder, of Schuylkill Haven, an em
ploye of Thompson's Slocking Factory, be
came too ill to work, and was excused at 0
o'clock. While on h?r way home, walking
through the alley between Spring Garden
and St Peter's streets, she was seized by two
Italians. She cried for help, but the rascals
cut her hair off and fled before it arrived.
They were pursued, bat had not been cap
tured at last account. They had evidently
been lying in wait for her for the purpose of
stealing her hair, which reached below her
waist, and was of a beautiful golden color.
Shot Through the Heart.
Baltimore. August 4 A tew sharp words
and tha hasty use of a revolver and an ap
parently happy young and certainly hand
some couple, husband and wife, were lying
dead, each shot directly through the heart.
At mi. Inight the neighbors of William Dolnn
a book maker, living on East Lan vale street,
were awakened by the sound ot four pistol
shots. The house was broken open and
there stretched on the Moor were tbe bodies
of Mr. and Mrs. Dolan. -As there were
powder marks on the man's shirt and as the
pistol was near bis body, be must have done
tbe shooting.
The Forest Fires In Montana.
Hxt.K t, .Must., Aug. 1. The forest tires
which have been prevailing lit Montana for
a week show no signs of abatement. From
Heleua west, norib and south, a great black
cloud of smoke hangs over the country, and
for six day the sn't has not been seen
Granville Stuart, than whom no man Hi
Montana is better able to judge, estimates
the damaee at half a million dollars. At
Massonia, in western Montana, the streets
buildings and sidewalks are covered with
ashes.
Tbe air is like a bUnt from a furtiai-c. The
atmosphere is filled wilh crisp embers that
have descended lik a light tall of snow. It
is estimated that the lois in Jefferson county
from forest firej so far this season will reach
in the neighborhood of $Jo,'J, consisting
mainly of common wood cut aud prepared
for the market, iu addition to which an irn
(uense amount of standing timber has been
destroyed.
The fire U now raging in Boulder Canon,
near Bern ice, and has been most destructive
of property. The larger part of the cord
wood consumed in this hlaz was contracted
to the Anaconda Smelter. In the neighbor
hood of the great mining camp of Phillips-
burg the damage has beeu immense, while
the town of granite is in imminent danger
of being destroyed. The mountains about
the city are all abluie, and while no danger
to the city is feared, the heat and stifling
smoke are almost unbearable.
Hear the Canuck Howl.
Ottawa, August 2. The dullness in mil
ci d circle) has U eu dis;clled by the recent
nei of Ihe seizure of a Britii-h ve-wl in the
Bob ring Sea. The excitement occasioned by
the affair is intense. The Canadians cannot
understand why the American Government
should not entertain the same opinion re
car ling int?rnational laws and the Ihree-
mile limit on the Pacific as well as ou the
Atlantic coast.
At present the Governor Genera! is in
direct communication with the British Gov
ernment, which favors a cautious olicy.
The Canadian Government has atked Eng
land in plain language to protect their inter
ests. The pre-o is a unit in denouncing the
seizures. Of course nobody thinks of going
to war. The dispute, however, has direet-d
attention to Canada's military strength. The
active military force exceeds .'fl.Ooo men. On
the basis of the last census, Canada can put
$t,50o,WJ meu iu the field.
The Figures For It.
Haeruhi ko, Ang. 3. A tabulated state
ment has been prepared showing tbe amount
contributed by each state and country to the
fund in Governor Beaver's Isfnds. Secretary
Kremer, of the commission on distribution
of relief to the Pennsylvania flood sufferers,
has had prepared a statement showing the
amounts sent to the Governor direct to the
27th of July by the different states, territo
ries and foricgn countries. This exhibit
shows an aggregate of $!,tiSC,0G.0o to have
been forwarded. The amount includes $100,
OoO contributed through the mayor of New
York by the people of that city. The total
contributions, including the amount w hich
passed through the Governor's hands, reach
about $-l.3o0,(in, of which Pennsylvania has
given more than half, only about i'J,lt of
which the Govornor received. One of the
most generous contributors is California,
which through different sources, sent nearly
f.)0,lW.
Crying for Bread.
CmcAoo, July 31. Congressman Law lor
and other members of the Business Men's
Belief Committee left this morning with ad
ditional supplies for tke half starved, lock-
edout coal miners at Streator, 111. Mr.
Geerahty, whose business in Streator has
been well nigh ruined by the miners' troub
les, said to-day : "This food is to be divided
among 1aX starving miners, the majority of
whom are married men with families. It will
scarcely last two days for the Jioor fellows.
I can truthfully say (hat many people are
actually starving. The babies and children
cry Ibr bread and wallow in Ihe muddy
streets, but their mother have become cal
lous to their cries and do not seem to mind
Unless the millers are given work soon or
further relief oomes you will soon hear of
deaths from actual starvation."
The Sparrow as a Traveler.
WoosTca, Ohio, A'igiist 3. Peter II.
Slauffer, editor of the L-radjiiviile Jilvirntr,
it authority for the following story : On the
l.iih of Ju'y an English -(.arrow flew into
his otlioe and was captured. The bird was
released after a tag bearing ihe words " Lon
donville .1 Ware " and the date "July 1... '
was securely fastened to one of its l.gs.
Nothing more was thought of the matter
hence E litor Stauffer says he is greatly sur
prised to receive a letter containing the leg
of the sparrow with ihe ta j attached. The
letter was sent by Fred M. Clary, cashier of
a bank at Huron, South Dakota. He statts
that his son killed the sparrow at Huron on
July 27, eleven days after the bird's release
at Loudonville.

Buckshot and Bullets.
Baton Bocuk, August 5.- -Information has
been received here of a bloody duel fought
yesterday morning, near Cotton Port, Ivoyles
parish, between Harry Ducate and his son-in-law,
Charlie Armour. There were about
fifty mm preseut at the fight, which took
place on the banks of the Bayou. The men
approached each other and began fighting.
Both combatants fell prostrate.

. Her Husband's Chost.
CBAwroBifeViLLK, Iso., August 5. The
ghost of Christopher Hillard has come back
to drive sleep away from the eyes of his
widow. Hillard died from neglect, accord
ing to the Coroner's verdict, and he appeared
in spirit from the very fisfl night after the
funeral. Mrs. Hillard lives alone, and she
affirms that the ghost has an uncomfortable
habit of walking back and forth across her
bed after she lies down. She spends her
days at home unmolested, but sleeps at a
neighbor's at night.
Immigration Falling Off.
New York, August 4. Last month 24,
7H) immigrants landed at Castle Garden,
against 2S,Cmj in July, 18!t.4. Every mouth
this year has been marked by a gradual de
cline in European immigration. Among the
reasons advanced are difficulty in finding
employment here, inducements offered by
various South American governments, and
encouragement to remain at home given by
foreign monarchies, whose surplus popula
tion has been worked off in pat years.
One Giant and Nine Diamonds.
Kkikbet, Xgo., August 5. The petrified
arm of a pre-historic giant was unearthed
recently on the farm of J. R. Male, near
here. The hand was tightly clasried. A
young son of Mr. Male, while playing with
the curiosity, broke off the fingers of the
band aud nine large dia monds, of the purest
water and large as lima beans, fell out. Mr.

giant's body.

Iu a speech, referring to his rejection by the
