Millet for the Xew Orleana Exposition. :
The editor or the Grant Review has visited
the millet fields in that section and reports:
The millet stalk is about three feet high and
resembles corn in many respects, only it is
smaller. The heads are about ten inches
long and very thickly tilled. Mr. Story esti
mates that he will thresh fully one hundred
bushels from one acre. The millet makes
the finest and most uuitritious kind of feed
for stock, and it is said that it also makes
excellent eating, as cakes, for man as well
as for beast. Mr. Story's attention was first
directed to this new and wonderful grain
some six years ago on the prairie near Big
Stone lake where some cattle were grazing,
and which they picked out in preference ' to
grass. Ho was able to obtain only two or
three heads, the seed of which he planted
the next year in his garden, but tho chlck
eus picked and ate it before he knew it. He
again only secured a few heads, and the fol
lowing year planted it again and protected it
so that he secured the seed. He has since
perssvved it until this year he has raised one
aero 'of It which he will thresh and sell for
seed, at the rate of $1.50 for enough for one
acre. He purposes placing bundles on exhi
bition at the county fair, and will send speci
men bundles to the New Orleans exposition.
It will be well worth the while of farmers to
investigate this new irraiu, as it certainly
makes the best kind of feed for stock.

r Dell Rapids, Sept. 17. — For the last ten
days there has been considerable excitement
in this village on the account of a discovery
of valuable mineral, and some eighteen min
ing claims hare been located on section 16,
which has been heretofore reserved as a.
school section. The deposit is a erystallinu
granite or quartette, and a corporation is
about being on£auixt'<l for mining purposes,
and there Is now little question as to the
rapid development of the mines. Mcßain
& Co. have been engaged in quarrying this
mineral for the manufacture of paving,
which they have been shipping extensively
to eastern cities and realized large profits
from toe same, having had a large business
in this line, and the growing popularity of
the material for paving insure* a more ex
tended demand; so there is little
danger of too great a supply. The new
management will be prepared
to meet any emergency and create a neces
sity lor entenslve building in the next year.
The public schools have begun occupying
the old Baptist and Episcopal churches until
such time as the schooihouse can be rebuilt.
The result of the convention at Pierre Is
awaited with some Interest, as everybody is
desirous of knowing whether the craftiness
of North Dakota will forever continue to
manage and govern the more populous and
rapidly growing South Dakota.
Local politics wan so full of glowing heat
before the time when the campaign should
have properly began that the fever has some
what subsided, and only for the agitation of
the leaders of the farmers' ■ movement the
drinking public would have forgotten whose
turn it is to ''set 'em up." Free whisky and
cigars are not likely to do all the eleetloneer
curing this year, however, as the mass of
I voters are of the opinion that there is some
j thing more reliable in politics as well as

Tho Herbert-Keqnan Shooting.
After hovering at death's door for two
weeks, William Herbert, of South Bend
township died W^lnesday at 5 p. in. Several
operations were performed on him, but the
efforts of experienced medical aid proved of
do avail. The circumstances of the shooting
of Herbert are probably known to most of
the people of Mankato. On September 3,
at 10 p. in. he, in company with Daniel
Williams and Geo. E. Taylor, all boys of
about eighteen years of age, entered the
melon patch of Mr. Geo. M. Keenan, living
in Sonth Bend. They were in the patch ex
amining the melons when out of a shock of
corn two persons, admitted to be Samuel and
George Keenan. sons of the owner, appeared
and five bhots were fired, one striking
young Herbert in the shoulder. Herbert was
helped home, but the injuries not being con
sidered serious, a physician was summoned
when the matter took a more serious aspect,
and on Wednesday evening he died from
the effects. A warrant was sworn out by
Sol. Taylor, the father of one of the boys who
was with Herbert, and put into the hands of
Sheriff Monks who went to the home of Mr.
Keenan and arrested the two vouuz men,
George, who is about eighteen years of age,
and Samuel) about thirty years.
An inquest was held Thursday morning
at 10 o'clock. Coroner Paddock impanneled
a jury consisting of D. P. Davis jr., C. E.
Wise, Arnold Goesman jr., Jas. C. McMahon,
11. W. Brown, Chas. Brown.
The first witness called was Geo. E. Taylor,
who testified as follows:
Live in South Bend; wag with Win. Her
bert and Daniel Williams on the night of
September 3d; we went to Keenans melon
patch at about 10 o'clock and opened the
bars; Herbert went into the field, then Wil
liams and then myself: Herbert was picking
a melon, Williams was pressing one to see
if it was ripe; I was watching to see if any
one was near; saw no one; saw a shock of
corn raise and some one fire. There were two
men under the shock; could not tell whether
they were men or boys; we ran through
the bars and then another shot was fired,
and a third shot was fired when we were two
or three rods from the bars, and then Her
bert said "Boys lam shot" One of us took
the melon he had and the other his band;
we helped him along, and after going six or
seven rods Herbert wanted to lay down ; he
then got up and went five or six rods more
and said he could go no further. He laid
down on the grass coughing and spitting;
held his hand and he asked if it was not
blood; we got him started for home; he was
spitting blood, but we did not tell him so;
on top hill he laid down again; stayed behind
Davis' store fora short time; we got him up
and he walked to Herberts' hill; he
asked if Ml shoulder was not bleed
in?; It had bled but a few
drops; walked lrom there to the foot of th«
hill: he sat down there a few minutes and
then walked to the top of the hill: we got
him over the fence and we then helped him
to the corner of the house; asked him if he
could walk into house; said be could; he
went into the house, we watching him until
the door was closed; we then started for
home; we did not think Herbert was hurt
bad; I did not see him until the next Satur
day ; the body now lying dead is that of Her
bert.
Dan. Williams sworn — Was acquainted
with Wm. Herbert and Geo. Taylor; on the
night of Sept. 3 we 1, ft the bouse of Herbert
at 7 p.m.; went from there to South Bend
\ and from there to Keeuan*s melon patch;
I we opened the ben and looked around to see
it any one was watching; seeing no one was
around we went in, Herbert leading: we
were half a rod from the bar* when we heard
the report of a fire arm ; Herbert had two
melons loose, picked one up and we run as
as toon as we beard the shot; when we were
oat of the bars four reports were heard in
rapid succession : Taylor stubbed hi toe and
fell; be got up and we run; Herbert told us
when Taylor fell that he thought he was shot;
j Herbert still had the melon and was falling
back: I took melon from him and when we
reached top of bill he fell, and after going
some time laid down : I took off his coat to
see how bad he was hurt : found the shot had
entered back of right shoulder: we put hi*
coat on again and went a* far
as South Bend hill, when he
laid down again, and from there
we came to Herbert's hilL where we sat
down. Examined the shot strain. We got
over fence and be vomited. We helped him
to the bouse and he went in. . We then
went home. This all occurred in the town of
South Bend. Blue Earth county. Have seen
Herbert from time to time since September
3. The body lying dead is that of William
Herbert. None of us were armed on that
night. Took as about an hoar from the time
we left the melon patch till we saw Herbert
through th« door. My age is nineteen. Her
bert was between seventeen and eighteen
years of age.
Dr. J. W.Amlrews sworn: Am a physician
and surrecn ; have resided in Mankaio for
one year and have practiced medicine for
seven years. Was called to attend William
Herbert on the morning of September 4.
, Last saw aim alive yesterday memine.
When I was called I found a wound on the
rigbt ■fceaMec. In company with Dm. War
ner an d Davis made a poet mortem exam
ination. We found an opening passing
from the external opening downward tad
forward and a little inward. On
| the inner portion of the chest we found an
t oMßinz one lac- and a half from the sßinal
column and between first and second ribs.
This same opening we traced to the upper
lube of the right lung and into the center of
the middle tube where we found this piece
of clothing, [clothing exhibited]. From
this place we failed to trace the missile.
Did not find the ball. It is very evident
that, whatever the missile was, It was pro
jected with sufficient force to paw through
the chest wall, through the entire length of
the upper tube of the right lung and into the
center of the middle tube carrying with it a
portion of the clothing. This was sufficient
injury to excite hemorrhage and sufficient
inflammation to envolvethc entire plum and
lung of the right side into a genuine trau
malic pleura pneumonia and a consequent
effusion of lymph and other inflamatory pro
duct* Into thu lung tissue and pleural cavity.
The wound was the primary and sufficient
cause of his death. This wound could not !
do other than Incite the inflammation de
scribed. He diea September 17, 1834.
The verdict of the jury state that "Win.
Herbert came to his death by a missile shot
from some fire arm in the hands of some
person or persons unknown to the jury, on
the night of the 3d of September, 18S4.
HASTINGS FAIR.
A Day Spent Among: the Exhibits
and Viewing the Stock,
Close of the Fair— A Day of Races, Etc.
• ————— i, . .
[Special Telspram to the Glob*.] ,
Hastings, Minn., S<ipt. IS.— The", fair
closed here to-day. The weather has ' been
cool and pleasant, -nevertheless the attend
ance has been comparatively small. As < to
day was the close of the fair but a few were
expected to attend, but throughout the whole
fair there has been a noticeable falling off of
visitors as compared with previous years,
while tbe gate receipts show a marked de
crease. While this is undoubtedly true the
management claim that the association has
had a prosperous won.
The morning was devoted by the visitors
to viewing the stock and other exhibits,
many of them visiting Agricultural hall
where the local manufacturers displayed
their goods, and where the 1 farmers .of
the county displayed their entries
of vegetables, etc. Prominent among
these was the dairy department, where !
cheese, butter, etc., manufactured at the !
dairies of the county were tastefully dis- j
, played. The pantry stores, consisting of
jellies, pickles, apples, bread, pies, and, in
fact, every article found in a well regulated !
pantry, also attracted much attention. The
vegetables were constructed into a pyramid, i
occupying one corner of the room. The |
ha: d ware display by Joseph Firn or, of Has
tings, was also very fins. Not only was all
kinds of hardware, including stoves, repre
sented, but a miniature design of the school
house here had been constructed out of bolts,
screws, and othos small articles in the hard
ware line, and loomed up quite natural in
the background. On eack side of this was a
design, representing a deer, constructed
out of tacks, rivets, bolts, etc.
Next to the display of hardware was
the harness display of Fred S.
Church, all kinds of harness and saddles
being represented, which in turn was fol
lowed by a display of carpets by J. F. Nor
rish. The latter display was very creditable,
all of the fine and medium grades* . of car
pets being represented. J. G. Mertz had a
display of furniture, and Julius Kock of furs,
.the latter including lap robes, coats, capes,
etc. Tbe New York store had on exhibition
a general line of boots, shoes, dress goods,
etc. The fine art department, including
photographs, oil paintings, brass work, etc.,
was also very fine.
The display of live stock is said to be the
largest ever entered at a l'uir here. The
horses include entries in the classes of thor
oughbreds, trotting strains, Clydesdales,
Normans, horses for all work, draft horses,
carriage teams, Clydesdale grades. Norman
grades, sweepstakes and English shires. In
each of these grades there- are from one to a
dozen entries. In cattle them were entries
in half a dozen classes, including Durhams,
Alderneys and Jersey*, Devons. grades and
sweepstakes. In these classes the entries i
range from o*n« to half a dozen. There were {
three classes represented in sheep— Oxford, I
Downs and coarse wool. In swine only two
classes wete represented Poland and Berk- '
shire. There were only two entries in the
poultry display.
The morning was devoted entirely to view
ing the stock, stock sales, and the remainder
of the time was utilized in discussing Don
nelly's candidacy for congress and his pros
pect for election.
Thf Hue**.
The races occupied all the afternoon, and
much interest was manifested in the result
among the spectators. The track was slow
and dusty, and the trotting was generally
very tame. The interest in the running
race was perhaps greater from the fact that
one of the contestants was a lady. Follow

I DO NOT FEAK TO GROW OLD.
1 Lament who will, in fruitless tears,
The speed with which our moments fly ; *
I sigh not over vanished years.
But watch the years that hasten by.
Why grieve that time has brought so soon '.
The sober age of manhood on?
As idly should I weep at noon
To see the blush of morning gone. (
Trne, time will sear and blanch my brow;
Well — I shall sit with aged men,
And my good glass will tell me how
A srizly beard becomes me then.
And should no foul dishonor lie
Upon my head when I am grey,
Love yet may search my faded eye,
And smooth the path of my decay.
