and it is feared forty men are still
remaining in the pit dead.
The largest steam boiler in the
world was recently finished at Wei

tallest peak of the buftdlo mountains
east of Kuoxville was undermined
by the incessant rains, and fell
from a height of three hundred
feet.
The entire business portion of
Haverhill, Mass., was destroyed by

A fact not generally known is
that Minneapolis is the second
greatest wheat market in the Unit
ed States, New York alone exceed
ing it in the number of bushels
handled in the year 1881. Minnea
apolis handled over 16,000,000 bush

Th nomination of Hon. H. R.
Denay, of Carver, to be United
States Marshall for the district of
Minnesota, was sent to the Senate
on the 14th inst. Mr. Denny is a
good man aud he will make a first

in this instance.
The worst fears regarding the loss
of life by the late disaster in the
Grove Shaft mine in the Midlothian
pits, Va., bave been realized. Every
one of the thirty-two men in the
mine at the time of the explosion
lost their lives. Five bodies have
been found, and the owners of the
mine have flooded the works to ex

The Supreme Court of Kansas has
rendered a decision which sets aside
as unconstitutional the clause of
the prohibitory law fixing a punish
ment for drunkenness, on the ground
that this provision was not express
ed in the title of the bill. The
depost-officea
cision covers still another point, the
court holding that persons legally
in possession of liquor may drink,
burn or give it away.
A horrible affair is reported at
Pisco, Peru, a small town on the Pa
cific coast, on the mouth of the Pis
co river. Col. Maas of the Petuvi
an army inflamed the evil element
of his mercenery and ill-disciplined
troops by distributing among them
400 casks of confiscated wine. The
maddened mob then gave vent to
their pent-up passions, and the most
terrible scenes incident to the sack
ing"of a city in the darkest days of
barbaric warfare ensued. One thou
sand people are said to have been
slaughtered in cold blood, with all
the attendant horrors of a merciless
mob, mad with liquor, in control of
helpless women and children1.'
In passing in review the piobable
candidates for Congress from the
several districts in this State as now
instituted, the Pioneer Press thinks
that ex Lieut. Gov. J. B. Wakefield,
of Blue Earth Citj, has the inside
track in this (the Second) district,
and that Major Strait is not likely
to meet with any embarrassing op
position in the new Third district.
That's just about the way it looks
to us, too, and we have no fault to
with the situation, neither.
The Minnesota Senate, sitting as
a court of impeachment in the Cox

A man walked into a physician's
office in Grand Rapids, Mich., a
few days ago, and in the large and
easy manner of the boundless, pick

to use it. Presidently he pricked
his tongue, and a consequent excla

The National House of Represen
tatives has at last succeeded in fram
ing a Congressional apportionment
bill satisfactory to a majority of the
members, and the same was passed
last Thursday. The bill provides
for 325 members and does not matown
terially differ from the apportion
ment published in these columns a
few weeks since, except that it adds
five to the number of Representa
tives then proposed. These five ad
ditional members are given one each
to New York, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Texas and South Carolina. Minneso

The State Grange was in ssssion
at Minneapolis last week. Tne fol
lowing resolutions, which were un
animously adopted, may be consid
ered the response of the farmers to
the recent action of the Millers' As
sociation aud the leading wheat
buyers of the State at their joint
meeting in Decembrr:
WHEREAS The leading millers and wheat buy
ers of the State met in December and adopted
new rule for grading and baying wheat, and took
such further action as resulted in the Immediate
decline of prizes 10 to 30 cents pr bushel withont
any corresponding depression in the market of
the world and
WHEREAS, For two months they have stubborn
ly tried to enforce this bold system of plundering
therefore,
RESOLVED, That in such action these men have
truck a blow at every interest in the State except
their own, and that all classes should therefore
promptly contribute to redress the Outrage,
RESOLVED, That this action only demonstrates
again the danger of building powerful monopolies
in our midst, that open competition is the only
nnre means of securing fair prizes that the system
of local one that we cannot offord to dis
and left to sell our produce to foreign
companies whose only aim it is to reap as fat a
harvest as possible, and that whenever such local
bcyers are to be found, communities will subserve
their own ultimate interests by prosecuting them
to the rings who have gained control of nearly all
the markets of the State.
RESOLVED, That the milling interest which we
have gladly seen davelope in the State, if it con
tinues in this present evil course, will prove a
curse whsre we expected a blessing that in this
action they have attacked a power superior to
themselves that the people can get along without
the mills while the mills cannot possibly get
along without the wheat, and as long as they ad
here to this unholy alliance we strenuously urge
the shipping of the wheat ont of the State that it
be handled as far as possible by independent buy
ers that for the purpose of perfecting arrange
ments for the full execution of this plan, muss
meetings be held and the subject thoroughly ven
tilated, and that the railroads be called upon to de
fine their attitude, s to whether they will furtner
protect this swindle, or withdraw from the contest
and allow the people to redress their own grievan
ces.
In connection with the foregoing
resolutions an address to the rail
road comparies was also adopted
asking for the same facilities for
transporting wheat to the seaboard
as those offered to wheat buyers and
other corporations.

AMERICAN
We are glad to announce that the
Scientific American came out of the
late fire in New York, like the
fato
bled Phceiiix, with renewed life.
The subscription lists, account book
patent records, patent drawings,
and correspondence were preserved
in massive fire-proof safes. The
printing of the Scientific American
and supplement was done in ano
ther building consequently the
types, plates, presses, paper, etc.,
were unharmed, and no interrup
tion of business was occasioned.
The new Scientific American offi
ces are located at 261 Broadway,
corner of Warreu streat, a very cen
tral andexcelent situation. The new
building fronts towards the City
Hall, the Court House, and the new
magnificent structure,
which cost eight millions to build.
Nearly opposite, and a few hundred
feet distant from the Scientific Am
erican offices, is the entrance to the
freat Suspension Bridge over the

Brooklyn, which required ten years
to construct and twenty millions of
dollars to Day for. In front also of

him and the rear coach passing over
his body.
A shipment of a car load of wheat
made last week by farmers of the vi

about 1.10 per bushel at Milwaukee.
The same wheat at Mankato brought
only 80 cents.
According to the Le Sueur News

E. L. Thomas, near Fergus Falls,
a few days ago with a Winchester
rifle, killed five deer out of a herd
that was running past him, with
out moving cut of his tracks, and
added a sixth to his load a few min
utes later.
The liquor license in Glenwood,
Pope county, has been fixed by the
county board, at %400. This is the

About six thousand tons of ice
have been packed at Worthington,
mostly intended for the southern
trade. In addition, a Kansas City
firm hos shipped to that point one
hundred car loads and will ship as
much more this winter.
A lady in Belvidore, Goodhue Co.,
has a clock which is over two hun
dred years old. It was made in Ger
many in 1680, the name of the mak
er and date of manufacture being
stamped on the dial. It was brought
to the United States by a man named
Weiss, who settled in one of the New
England States in 1793.
The Faribault Republican relates
the captnre of two wild cats in that
vicinity. In both instances the ani
mals attacked the men who killed
them. One man was an unsuspect
ing wood chopper who received the
first intimation of the proximity of
his catshipby its landing on his arm
and shoulder. Killed it with his ax.
Quite a curiosity is to be seen in
the village of Grantsburg. A squaw
gave birth to a child. Shortly after
wards her husband went out hunting
and ran across a large bear with two
little cubs scarcely two days old. He
shot the mother and captured the
little ones, and now the old sqnaw
nurses the three. It is a bear fact,
strange, but nevertheless trne.
A few days ago a passenger train
near Perham, was stopped by a crazy

in charge by the officers of the train
and turned over to the Perham au

thirty vessels with a high degree of
speed, each armed with one long

formidable to vihe merchant ma
rine of the great naval powers of
Europe, that they will think twice
before they attack us. It is plain
that the naval politices of the Eu
ropean powers should not be fol
lowed without notification by us.
Their cutnbercome iron-dads are
very formidable to the coast cities
of Europe, and they would be very
dangerous to our coast cities it the}
were only on this side the Atlantic
but the problem is to bring them
here. By far the most comfortable
place for these unwieldy iron, cof
fin-like monsters, with their bellies
full ot fire and machinery, is the
placid surface of a land locked har
bor. I have seen even the officers
and sailors of a first class ocean
steamer sick from the incessant
heaving of the Atlantic, and by
the time one of those ill ventilated
metallic "black holes" could reach

Mr. Dunnell, of Maine, has intro
duced a bill in Congress similar to
a measure recently urged by Mr.
Springer, of Illinois, and by the
late Clarkson N. Potter, of New
York, Its object is to iu Congress
of the the incubers of petty person
al legislation, and to have claims
against the government adjudicated
by a court or courts constituted for
this purpose. Mr. Springer, in a
recent speech, showed that personal
legislation was prohibted by the
constitutions of New York, Penn
sylvania, Illinois and most of the
other great states, and that this
prohibition had reduced the volume
of their statutes nearly 90 per cent.
It is absurd to expect the legisla
ture of 50,000,000 of people, con
fronted with momentous questions
of domestic and foreign policy, to
act as a court for the settlement of
private claims against the govern
ment. Over 4000 bills, most *t
them of a personal and private char
acter, have already been introduced
during this session of Congress, and
the necessity of such a measure as
that proposed by Mr. Dunnell is ur
gently felt.
"Hold the Tort."
Tto Story of That FsmrasMsssac* as ToMbytna
Hero HimatlC
I notice a number of newspapers giv
ing, or attempting to give, a correct
statement of the circumstances under
which our lamented friend and brother,
Judge J. W. McKenzie, performed the
signal act of heroism at Altoona, says a
correspondent to the Des Moines Regis
ter, none of which exactly coincide with
a detailed statement of case as giv
en to me by the "hero1'the
himself., I had
been especially intimate with him for
many years. Not one word had ever
fallen from his lips relative to this mat
ter, to my knowledge. One day, learn
ing incidentallyfrom anotherof his con
nection with "Hold the fort, for I am
coming," I took occasion soon to ask
him about it. He seemed at first re
luctant to tell me, but I pressed him,
and this is substantially hisown account
of it. After describing the situation of
the armies at Altoona and Kenesaw, he
said:
"Gen. Sherman's signal corps had
been trying to send dispatches from
Kenesaw to Gen. Corse. Wecould read
the dispatches with our telescopes, but
could not receive or answer them back,
because the Rebel shots weie so thick.
The Rebels had also a lot of sharpshootr
era posted watching our squad, and ev
ery time a man would show himself they
would pick him off. At this time Gen.
Corse came up and said, addressing the
signal corps, *Who isin command here?'
Our Captain was absent, and 1 was in
charge of the squad, and I replied, *I
am sir.' The General then asked if a
message could be sent to Gen. Sherman
in answer to his 'To hold the fort, for he
was ooming,' just read. I replied* 'that
it could be if it was absolutely neces-
sary.' Gen. Corse then wrote out the
message and handed it to me. It read
as follows:
'To Gen. Sherman: I am short a
cheek-bone and one ear, but can whip
hell out of them yet.
"GEN. CORSE.*
"I took it and the signal flag and
called for a volunteer from my little
squad. No man responded. I then of
fered theflag-staffto each man and
asked him if he would volunteer, and
each declined. I then thought I would
detail one, but my brother Tom was in
the squad, and the thought struck me if
I detailed another than him they would
say at once 'partiality.* If I detailed
him and he was shot I could never for*
ive myself, and it seemed like certain
to any one to undertake it At
this moment of hesitation the General,
seeing no man going forward, said to
me, firmly: 'Lieutenant, I thought you

Congress has sufficiently outlined
its programme to enable those well
acquainted with the history and
precedents of political legislation in
this country to predict what it will
do, and what it will leave undone*
It will pass the appropriation bills,
of course. The machinery of gov
ernment must be lubricated. The
tariff question is to be evaded for
the preseut by referring it to a com
mittee, outside of Congress, for in
vestigation. It is believed that
something will be done to increase
the strength and efficiency of our
navy, and the opinion among na
val experts is that our service and
our necessities will not be best sup
plied by monster iron-clads, like
those which have been built by
England, Germany, and Italy in
the last fifteen years, but by a num
ber of powerful, though smaller,
swift sailing, and easily maneuver
ed, vessels that will be able to over*
take a weaker antagonist, and to
escape from the more formidable
bat unwieldy ships with which the
navies of the old world have been
recruited. It is thig opinion of well
informed naval officers here, that,
since our national policy is deteu

The eminent counsel had been speak

when, on gazing at the bench, he found
that all the judges were asleep.
"I shall not continue my argument,"

"Continue, brother," said the Chief

The 8pecter ofthe Vicksburg Siege.
I remember to have been standing on
a knoll in front of my headquarters on
a beautiful night listening to thefireof
batteries. The moon was out in all its
splendor, and the flashes that gleamed
from the mouth of a hundred guns
could be seen for miles to the right and
left. Standing upon an adjacent hill to
my right a tall figure was seen clothed
in white. It seemed to be that of a
man at least seven feet high, but the
uniform was not that of- a soldier. In
tones never to be forgotten and that
echoed from hill to valley and from val
ley to hill, the words "Cease firing"
was heard from this unearthly-looking
figure, as though he was commanding
the world and giving the order, "By
kingdoms, right wheel." Summoning
up all the courage at my command, I
hailed him with the inquiry, "Who on
earth are you?" The prompt and em
Eurbridgefs
hatic response was: "I

an without further de
I mounted the signal-station and
commenced sending the message, ex
pecting every moment to be shot. The
flag was about eighteen feet long, and
the wind was blowingsome, and ffound
it very hard work, and felt as though I
must give out before I was done. At
this moment, when it seemed I could
stand it no longer, a stranger, not a
member of the signal corps, came up
behind me, put his arms around me and
along my arms, took hold of the flag
staff, and standing behind me, helped
me to wave the answer back to Sher
man. I do not think I could have sent
the whole message withouthelporrest."
