The occasion was the stop-over of the na tional delegates to the grand council of Red Men at Minneapolis, to be held • Tuesday. A general meeting of the delegates from the East and South had been planned for Chicago that they might descend upon Minneapolis in a body, and the different delegates have been arriving there for two days past. Yesterday forenoon an informal recep tion was held. The most prominent of the visitors were the national officers, Andrew H. Paton, Danvers, Mass.; Robert T. Daniel, Griffin, Ga.; George E. Green, Binghampton. N. V.; Thomas E. Peckinpaugh. Cleveland, O. ; Charles C. Conley, Philadelphia; William Pro vin. Westfield, Mass.; John W. Cheney, Norfolk, Va.; B. B. Foster, Portland, Me.

In the center of the floor was a miniature Indian wigwam.which will be used in the regular ceremonies. MORPHINE EASED HIS PAIN. Carnival Visitor Ends 111 Health, I nhapplness and Life. Edward S. Briggs. thirty-three years of age, a" resident of Nevada, 10.. com mitted suicide yesterday, by swallow ing morphine in the room of his board ing house at 32 Twelfth street north There is evidence that the deed was carefully premeditated. In the early morning hours he partook of the drug, but before it had fully completed its fatal work when the act was learned and medical assistance sought. For ten hours physicans worked over his prostrate form, but were unable to stay the ravages of the drug. Death oc curred at 8 o'clock last evening. The act of self-destruction is par allel in its nature with several which have occurred in this city within recent date. It was undoubtedly prompted by ill-health and domestic unhapplness. That he was a victim to the former af fliction his cousin, who was in the city, so stated last evening. Concerning the latter there were papers in his cloth ing evidently penned by his own hand in which he warned all persons not to have any business dealings with his wife in his name as she had left him without any cause. Briggs came to this city to attend the carnival. He engaged board and rcom at 22 Twelfth street north Tues day la?<t. In his relations with those about the house he was cordial and pleasant and seemed to be in excellent spirits. Saturday he made arrange ments to visit Minnehaha park In com pany with others at the house. The party was to start early and Briggs left a call. The latter request was carried out. His belU was rung twice, but there was no response. El mer Brown, the proprietor. Went per sonally to call him. but could get no answers to his calls and knocks, and, procuring a chair, looked in the room through the transom. Briggs was rest ing quietly, but his unnatural pallor aroused suspicion. The police were called and Officer Peter Fox went to the number, climbed over the transom, unlocked the door, when the nature of the deed was discovered. A physician was summoned and worked over the man until 2 o'clock, when City Physician Weston was cal"«d. He remained until death oc curred. By the side of the bed was found a small box marked "One eighth grain morphine tablets." He had swal lowed the contents. Not once after being found did he regain conscious ness. Svrltchman Horribly Crushed. Patrick J. Hannan, a switchman on the Croat Northern road, received fatal Injuries •while attending to his duties yesterday. He was climbing over cars of a moving train In the Great Northern yards, when he slipped and fell between two cars and was horribly crushed about the abdomen. He was removed to St. Mary's hospital, where death soon in tervened. Hannan was thirty-five years of age, unmarried and resided at Hoeg and Sev enth avenues north. He came to this coun try from Ireland seven years ago. All his relatives are living in his native country. He was a member of the Ancient Order of Hi bernians, and also connected with the Knights of Pythias. An inquest will be held over the remains at the county morgue today It is probable the body will be forwarded to Ireland for interment. MARSHALL STEVENS ARRIVES. Manchester Canal Manager Favors Wlman's Land Project. Marshall Stevens, the general manager of the Manchester ship canal, arrives in Min neapolis this morning, and comes with a view of attending the banquet given by the Mill ers' club to Erastus Wiman. The occasion Is to afford the latter gentleman opportunity W. S. GITT OF THE OPERA HOUSE DRUG CO., writes : "We can say for the genuine JOHANN HOFF'S MALT EX- | TRACT that it is an excellent tonic, and the best aid for digestion." I Opera House Cor. Nicolett.

EISNER & MENDELSON CO., Sole Agents, New York to elucidate his plan to utilize the Erie canal and complete an all-water route for flour to New York, by which a saving of $1,000,000 in freight will be affected. It Mr. Stevens can show that by the Manchester canal a further reduction can be made between the producer, miller and consumer in Great Britain, the event tonight may have a prom ise of profit not hitherto attainable to the great industries of grain and grain products. At the banquet to Erastus Wiman this evening by the Millers' club, that gentleman will have abundant opportunity to elucidate his proposals for saving a large sum for our chief industries in freight reductions to the seaboard. His plan is to revive traffic over the Erie canal. Mr. Wiman nas given much attention to this subject, and has at length aroused the authorities of New York to the importance of doing something to save their declining commerce. The Minneapolis mil ers and Jobbers are not likely to be slow to take advantage of any offers that promise to cheapen rates. Mr. Wiman's speech will, no doubt, contain much of value. School Uerslns Tomorrow. The public schools open tomorrow, and thou sands of brlgnt-face?d children and several hundred pretty school ma'ams will take up their work with more or less Joy after the long vacation. The vacation has tMs year been sensibly lengthened by extending It over Car nival week, ana today being a national holi day gives another day of gri-ce. The limits of each district have been published, and a great deal of preliminary work done to make the coming school year a profitable one. There will, of course, be a large increase of pupils, and perhaps some difficulty in getting them all settled in the most comfortable way. Church Rededieated. St. John's German Evangelical church, Third street and Sixteenth avenue north, devoted yesterday to dedicatory and anniversary exer cises. The occasion was the completion of tie work of improving the interior of the church, which has been going on during the summer.

Willie Lillia, 15 years of age, had his left foot crushed beneath an electric car on Min nehaha avenue yesterday. The lad had been to the ball park and was returning to hi 3 home at 232 Thirty-second avenue south. All the cars were crowded and he caught hold of the side thinking to secure a ride in that manner. He missed his foothold and the left foot slipped beneath the car. He was re moved to the city hospital, where the limb was amputated at the ankle. MINNEAPOLIS GLOBULES.

THE SAINT PAUL GLOBE; MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1896. GIiEfICOE LYHGHHIG Continued from First Page. been prostrated by the murder of her son by the mob. GOV. CLOUGH TALKS. Snys He Will Push the Investiga tion. Gov. D. M. Clough, when seen last evening, at his residence in Minne apolis, expressed great surprise that men could be found in the usually law abiding state of Minnesota who could be induced to participate in a crime of such enormity. He knew nothing of the details of the affair, and was re luctant to talk for publication until he should be furnished with official infor mation, but said that his office- could not in any way be blamed in the mat ter. "At the time the two suspected men were arrested and confined in the jail at Glencoe," he said. "I received a telegram late in the evening, from the deputy sheriff of McLeod county, informing me of the arrest, and further stating that danger of lynching was threatened. He asked that aid be sent to prevent such a result. I immedi ately ordered a company of the state militia to proceed to Glencoe, and suc ceeded in getting a company of troops oft* on the first train for Glencoe. The prisoners Were at once brought to St. Paul in charge of the sheriff of Mc- Leod county and his deputies, with the company of militia as an escort. They were placed in the Ramsey county jail, and that was the last I had heard of them until this morning. While in the jail at St. Paul, they were really in charge of the authorities of McLeod county, and I had no more to do with them as governor of the state than any private citizen had. I did not know when they were taken back to Glen coe, and was not aware that their trial had taken place. I had no intimation whatever that any danger was to be feared of lynching at this late day, and had I known of the return of the men, would have supposed it was all right, otherwise the sheriff would have asked for protection." Asked if he considered that the Mc- Leod county authorities had acted with remissness, the governor refused to talk, saying that he had no information whatever as to how the affair oc curred. It would be unfair to cond-mn the sheriff until he knew the facts. He stated, however, that an effort would be made to bring to justice the per petrators of the deed, and had no doubt the McLeod county authorities would do their full duty In this regard. As to his own plans he refused to be quoted, saying that the matter was one that required mature deliberation. He thought that it would be a difficult matter to fix the blame of the affaii upon the right parties, but as governor of the state, he intended to do what he could to bring to justice the guilty parties. ATTORNEY GENERAL'S POSITION. He Will Act as Assistant to Local Authorities. Attorney General Childs, seen at his residence at Merriam Park last evening and asked if he would take any action in regard to the lynching, said: "I do not yet know any of the partic ulars of the hanging, but I will go to Glencoe tomorrow morning to aid County Attorney Allen in the investi gation which he will institute. I re ceived a telegram from him today noti fying me of the lynching and asking me to come to Glencoe at once. Fur ther th.an this, he did not say. The only action which can now be taken in the matter is to hold an inquest over the bodies of the dead men and ascer tain the cause of their death. In this way if any of those participating in the lynching are known it will come out, and warrants will then be imme diately issued for their arrest by the authorities of McLeod county. The lynching is greatly to be deplored, es pecially after Musgrove had stood his trial, and I have no doubt but that the proper officials will do all in their power to bring to justice the perpetra tors of the deed." STORY OF THE CRIME As It Appeared In Evidence at the Trial. Several days were consumed in se curing a jury and Musgrove's actual trial opened Tuesday, County Attorney Allen conducting the prosecution with the co-operation of Attorney General Childs. Frank Vorrba, a farmer with whom the prisoners rode to Glencoe, and Benjamin Matthews testified re garding the altercation north of Glen coe which led to the issuing of a war rant for the arrest of Musgrove and Cinq-Mars. Justice W. C. Russell gave short testimony as to the issuing of the warrant. Then Louis Link was called— the only eye witness of the terrible tragedy. His description led up from the first sight of the men wanted, to the time Rogers got out of the carriage when the horses stopped, a few feet beyond the two men. Then, Link said. Rogers said "I want you fellows." The two men said, "I guess not." The witness said Cinq-Mars shot his revolver, but didn't hit Rogers, he thought. Rogers stepped forward and pulled his re volver. The two men told him they would shoot, after he pulled his re volver. At that they aimed at Rogers and he said, "Blaze away." Both Cinq-Mars and Musgrove shot at the same time. Rogers did not shoot nor poiut his gun. Musgrove held his rifle toward Rogers' breast. Then the wit ness drove the team ahead, saw the two men pick up Rogers' revolver and shoot at him — Link. Musgrove. he said, did not have his rifle pointed at Rog ers when the latter reached for his pocket, and Rogers did not aim at either man. As Link drove away, the two men shot at him three times. He got three farmers, drove back, picked up Rogers' body and drove to Glencoe about 7 o'clock. Cross-examined, he said he did not hear the men beg Rog ers to keep away; said Cinq-Mars did not shoot through his pocket, and that both Cinq-Mars and Musgrove shot at about the same time. Carl Jeijtz and daughter Pauline, who live near the scene of the shooting, testified to Rogers' walking about 180 steps after he was shot. Jentz al*o tes tified to seeing six shots fired and hear ing seven. He said, too, that Roger lay for half an hour where he first fell, then got up and started towards Jentz's house. Dr. C. B. Day described the wounds found in the body at the autopsy. One, he said, was in the right forearm. While the trousers and drawers were being removed. Dr. Barrett found a bullet on the table. Three inches be low the top of the right pelvis bone was a bullet wound, and about the middle of the inside of the thigh was another. In the right breast was a wound, one inch to the left of the nip | pie. The bullet had passed through the lower portion of the right lun*?, through the liver and lodeed a little below the lower edge of the shoulder blade, in the muscle. The cause of death was the shot and internal hemorrhage from the wound in the breast. The testimony of Dr. Barrett and Dr. Miles corroborated this in the essential points. They said the hip wound could not be self-inflicted. The fatal bullet was offered in evi dence, as was the bullet taken from the arm. There was quite a dispute over the admission of the bullet found on the table, but it" was finally admitted. The murdered sheriff's clothes were also put on exhibition as evidence. No bullet hole was found in*the coat. One was found In the leg of the drawers. One more was through the vest. Wednesday's session was a legal fight on admission of confessions as evidence. E. E. Mclntire, who was one of the party that brought Mus grove to Glencoe was called to tell of the capture, but the defense opposed the admission of testimony by him as to statements said to have been made then by Musgrove. Harrison Traver, of Hutchinson, teti fied that he and M. H. McKenzie visit ed the prisoners at 7 p. m. the day they were captured. Traver said he asked Musgrove why he Bho* Joe, and Mus grove said he did not kfiow, except that he and his partner did l not want to be arrested with firearms on. Traver ask ed him if he had not Been arrested be fore and he said no.' I'hen Traver told him Joe would have treated them as gentlemen and they should have given up. and he said he* guessed Joe would. Traver asked him' what Rogers said to them and he said Joe said, "I want you fellows. I have a' warrant for you." Musgrove said, "We both answered, 'I guess not.' " S. G. Peterson testified as to a con versation had with ,Mu,sgrove the morn ing of the 26th of June, immediately before the prisoners for St. Paul in charge of the miUtla, He asked Mus grove how they came ,to kill the sher iff, and he said: "Cinq-Mars and I had talked it over and made up our minds we would not be taken as we did not think we had done anything that we ought to be arrested for. That trouble we had with that farmer about his dog did not amount to much, and he. was as much to blame as we were. When the two men drove up, one of them, the sheriff, I suppose, jumped out and said: 'I want you fellows. We both said: "I guess not." We must have argued with him three or four minutes about let ting us go but he still insisted on our going with him. Then Cinq-Mars said: 'But we won't go;' and "the sheriff said: 'I can't help it, boys, I have got a war rant for you and you have got to come.' We said: 'We won't go.' Then he reached for his gun and Cinq-Mars pulled his at the same time, but in getting it out of his pocket it went off, tearing a hole through his coat. I had covered him with my rifle but dropped it, but when I see him pull hiß gun I raised it again and it went off before I intended it to. You will And when you find my gun that it pulls off easj* when it is half or safety cocked." Further testimony was given by T. M. Paine, John Beihoffer and Her bert Beebe as to the weapons found and care of those weapons. Then the state rested. Walter Schumaker opened the case for the defense, and the first witness was Cinq-Mars. He said: "We were walking, I on the left and Musgrove en the right. I heard a racket and turned to the left. I said: 'We are lucky enough to get a ride/ When the rig got opposite a man jumped out about the time the horses came to a walk. He came up with his hand on his hip pocket. He said, 'I want you boys,' with a queer sound. Musgrove said, '1 guess not.' The man kept coming and I said, 'Keep back, we don't want trouble.' He said, 'You've got to come or I will give you trouble.' Then I took out my revolver. I had a six shooter on my left side in a new scab bard, which the revolver didn't fit. In pulling the gun out it was discharged, passing through my coat, and the smoke went toward the ground. The sheriff stepped back, holding his re volver. I told him, 'Hold your revolver down, put it away, throw it down and explain ' He said, 'I never will.' Then I thought I would shoot the gun out of his hand and fired. Musgrove looked at me and asked what I shot at. At the same time I heard a report and saw smoke rolling up around Rogers. I turned and saw the driver about ten rods away. Then Rogers sank down. Musgrove went up and took his re volver to keep him from shooting. Rogers said nothing. I hollered to the driver, 'Take your buddy to town.' (Buddy is a Southern term for partner.) Cinq-Mars told also of the flight and capture. He said that every way they went a lake appeared, and it seemed as though they were on an island. Musgrove came next and said he was twenty-seven yeara. of age, and was born and raised In Walker county, Alabama. His father died- in ;188i and his mother in ISBB. He has two sisters living in Alabama, one Is married and the other works in a store. He said he had worked at coal mining both !n Indian Territory and lowa for the same company. From the time he went to Eau Claire, Wis., where he met Cinq-Mars, he narrated his story in part as follows: "I worked on the drive five days for one company at $2.25 per day, and seventeen days for another company at $2.50 per day, Cinq-Mars and I worked together on the "drive. Went fishing and hunting around Leech Lake after being un able to get work on the St. Croix river, owing to the drives not being operated on accountof the high water. Bought the gun offered in evidence by the state at Leech Lake, of a man who came to us while we were fishing, about 17th or 18th of June, intended to go to the harvest, fields of. lowa arid Dakota. We came down through St. Cloud, rode on train a part of the time and walked a p-trf of the time." He also told his story of* the trouble with Matthews about-; the,. dog and of the minor incidents • fpllowing it until the sheriff overtook tiiem- south of Glencoe. Of the tragedy he said: 'As the hack stopped a man got out and the team passed on. He turned, put his hand on his hip, and said, 'I vyant you fellows.' We said, 'I guess not.' He said, '1 guess yes ' advancing and we stepping back and saying to .keep away as we didn't want trouble with him. Cinq- Mars was on the left, and I backed into the road; I saw him draw his gun. As it raised out of his pocket I raised my gun to my shoulders. About that time I heard a report. At this we both begged him to put down his gun and explain. He said, 'I never will do it.' Then I heard another report and saw smoke from Cinq-Alars' revolver. 1 asked him what? he shot at. Then my gun jumped and I heard a report about five seconds later, and saw smoke com ing from the sheriff's clothes. He sank down and hi 6 gun dropped. I looked at my gun, threw out an empty shell and was amazed to see my gun had gone off. As I went to get the sheriff's gun, Cinq-Mars called to the driver to come and pick up his man. The sheriff did not say he had a warrant, nor did I have any idea he was an officer." Musgrove then denied saying what ap peared in the testimony of Traver and Peterson, Thursday and Friday were devoted to the arguments and the judge's charge, and the Jury came in at 2 o'clock Saturday morning. MI'RDEH AKD FLIGHT. How the Men "Were Captured After Their Crime. June 24 last two young men shot a dog belonging to Ben Mathews, a farm er, residing north \,6t Glencoe. On j Mathews remonstrating he was knock led down and .bumme-ed. They then j continued on tl_«nr Way toward town. . Mathews immediately followed and ! swore out a wonaant. In the mean | time the strangers Jaad purchased to bacco at a grocery a»d bread at a bak i cry and proceeded on foot southward ! toward Arlington; At 6:15 the warrant i for their arrest was placed in the hands j of Sheriff Roger* aad accompanied by Louis Link, a young wagonmaker, he I started in pursiiit. fAbout four miles | south of town they overtook the fugi- I tives, who, as they dj*>ve up, separated jto opposite sides of -the road. Sheriff j Rogers stepped {from the buggy, re j marking: "1 want Hou fellows." One or both of the remarked: j "Oh, I guess not,'' at the same time [ one fired the contents of a loaded gun I into the ground at the sheriff's feet. j Rogers prepared to draw his revolver ! when the tramp, taking deliberate aim, j poured the contents of the weapon into i the officer's breast. Link succeeded in making his escape ! and driving a mile toward town, se | cured the assistance of two farmers | and going back found the sheriff dead iby the roadside. He immediately i drove with the body to town and the I toll of the fire bell at 7:30, folowed by th,«k .aews, threw th.9- town into an 4n de^ribable state of excitement. Armed bands immediately started in pursuit and scoured the country. About 300 men were engaged In the work. They were divided into squads of six or eight men, each party under a leader. The work of capture was of extreme dan ger to the pursuers, as the ones sought wi?re known to be heavily armed. As it was, a posse of six men, under the command of Mark Carstens, made the capture, although it was due largely to the efforts of a keen-eyed woman. Carstens is an old hunter and a crack shot and a personal friend of the mur dered sheriff. The murderers were caught in a swamp about twelve miles south of Glencoe, In the township of Dryden, Sibley county. The original force had been swelled by armed bands from Hutchinson, Arlington, Green Isle, New Auburn and Gaylord, as well as re cruits from the farming districts. The entire band, numbering nearly 400 men, followed the trail all day through wheat fields and forests and meadows and bogs, finally coming on the cul prits in a swamp. The pursuers were informed by a woman that she had seen the two men sneak from' a hay stack, where they had been in hiding, and lose themselves in the rushes of the bog. The swamp was immediately surrounded by the entire force and de mand made for surrender, the demand being emphasized by a few random shots to intimidate the desperadoes. Finally the close visitations of the fly ing missives aroused the men from their hiding place. One drew his gun, but immediately threw his hands high in the air, while his companion followed his example. They were ready to give themselves into the hands of the authorities with out any resistance and confessed to being the men who did the shooting the evening before. They gave their names as Cingmars Musgrove and Nor man Hubba'rd, stated that their romier home was in Kentucky, that they had followed ruining for some years. They were recently thrown out of employ ment In the northern part of the state and were on a sort of a hunting expe dition south, with the hope of finding employment when they reached lowa. At 10 o'clock Thursday night the fol lowing message was delivered at the capital: "Sheriff Rogers' murderers are In jail. We fear lynching. Can not get special policemen enough. Can you aid us with militia? (Signed) — F. H. Sandman, Sheriff. — T. M. Payne, Mayor. — F. R. Allen, County Attorney. Gov. Clough was immediately notified by telephone, and at his direction a query was sent as to whether the need of help was im mediate. To this there soon came another dis patch: "Yes; we need help at once. F. H. Sand man, Sheriff." Capt. Ed Bean and Company D were drilling at the armory and were or dered to the scene. Instead of march ing to the union depot, the company proceeded to the levee between Jack son and Sibley streets, where the reg ular 10:15 short line train for Minneap olis slowed up, after leaving the union depot. Meantime a special train was being made up in the yards at South Minneapolis, and at 10:50 the transfer of the company was completed. They reached Glencoe at midnight, and guarded the jail until the departure of the morning train, when the pris oners were brought to St. Paul. BROUGHT TO THIS CITY. Fear of Lynching Led to Their Ile moval by Militia. Musgrove and Cinqmars were brought to the Ramsey county jail from Glen coe at noon, June 26. This precaution was taken owing to the feeling mani fested by the citizens against the men j and for fear that an attempt would be made to lynch them. There was quite a mob around the Glencoe jail the night previous to their arrival at St. Paul, and Capt. Bean, who, with Company D, of this city, was sent to Glencoe to prevent a lynching party, said all that was needed by the mob was a leader. The two prisoners were confined in the Ramsey county jail until a day or so before the meeting of the grand jury, which had been called specially to con sider the case on Aug. 20. Musgrove was taken back to Glencoe on the night of Aug. 14 by Sheriff Sandman. That official, seen at the depot by a Globe reporter a few minutes before the de parture of the train, said what feeling there had been against the prisoners so far as lynching them had died out and he anticipated no trouble. Cinqmars was taken back to Glencoe, ; Aug. 19, by a deputy sheriff. He did not like the idea of the transfer, and although the deputy sheriff assured him that the feeling had abated and all cit izens were in favor of giving him a fair trial, Cinqmars said he did not care to die with his boots on and was not at all anxious to return to Glencoe. Dur ing their stay at the jail both Cinqmars and Musgrove were model prisoners, and gained the respect of the turnkeys by their conduct. Cinqmars was fre quently visited by a priest, the rever end gentleman being sent for by the prisoner. SANK IN HIS CHAIR. How MnKgrore Received the Ver dict at Glencoe. Describing the scene in the court room when the verdict against Mus grove was ended, the Glencoe Register of Saturday said: "At 2 o'clock this morning a man went into court, shackled and handcuffed. He faced twelve men accepted as impartial jur ors, but did not look them in the eye. James Gilhausen, foreman of the jury, rose and delivered the verdict: 'We, the jury, find the defendant, Dorman Musgrove. guilty of murder in the sec ond degree.' But few were present — only court officers and counsel. All eyes rested on the man whose action June 24 brought him before the bar of justice. There was not a change in his countenance. The only move he made was a slight sinking in his chair. Then he turned and whispered to Sehumaker, his counsel, and Schu maker laughed. This was the scene under the lamps. Dorman Musgrove today is virtually under a life sentence, though this sentence will not be given for twenty days under a stay granted by Judge Cadwell." The only reference to popular feeling In the Register's account of the trial was in theiast paragraph, which was as follows: Erwin, the "Tall Pine." then turned loose and a stream of words and what the audience calls mis statements poured forth for trfree hours and a half. At 4 o'clock the judge be gan his charge. He spoke for an hour and every lawyer present character izes the charge as eminently fair ar-d very exhaustive. He left it to the Jury to decide as to the degree of the offense — he did not charge for first de gree or any degree. FROM ONE JURY TO ANOTHER.

The Centaur Company, 77 Murray Street, New York Crrr. lynched yesterday, was a general favorite in the section of the country about Glencoe. His bravery was a subject of comment throughout the county, and never had he been known to shirk his responsibility or duty. He was a single man and was a mem ber of a number of secret societies. His funeral, which took place Sunday, June 28, was conducted by the Masonic lodge, of which he was a prominent member. The funeral was the largest attended in the history of the county. CAME FROM ALABAMA. Mnsg-ro-ve Was a Southerner of Good Family. Dorman M. Musgrove was twenty four years old and up to four years ago his character and reputation had been ■without stain. His parents are both dead, but the family has lived in the vicinity of America, Ala., for ninety years and were known as respectable and influential people. Two sisters of Musgrove reside at America, Ala., one Mrs. J. E. Burton, being married to a prominent business man there, and the other, Sadie Musgrove, being employed as clerk in one of the general stores in the town. It was from the two sisters that means was raised for the purpose of carrying on the defense at the trial. Letters from Sadie Musgrove have been received by the firm of Erwin & Shumaker since the arrest of "her brother and the young girl asks that, although she Is unable to pay for the services of attorneys but a trifle, she would gladly do all that she could. Letters were also received by the law yers from Coleman & Bankhead, at torneys at Jasper, Ala., stating that Musgrove's character could be proven by the best men in the country in which he and his family had lived for a number of years. Those who offered to forward affidavits as to the char acter of Musgrove were J. W. Shep herd, probate judge; C. C. Kelly, clerk of the circuit court; G. H. Guttery, sheriff; E. O'Rear, county treasurer, and a number of others. The affidavits however, did not arrive in time for use at the trial, although Mr. Erwin brought the matter to the attention of the jury. CINQMARS' FAMILY TIES. Henry A. Cinqmars, twenty-five years old, was the son of F. X. Cinq mars, of Rhinelander, Wis. He left the home of his parents, both of whom are alive, about three years ago and since then has been drifting about the coun try. His father did not attend the trial of Musgrave, owing to poor health, but Mrs. Cinqmars was an interested spec tator during the entire trial and sat near her son in the court room. The parents of Cinqmars are well-to-do and respected people and are well liked in the section where they live. Their daughter, Mrs. McLaughlin, Is county superintendent of schools of Oneida county, Wis., and the shock of her brother's arrest on such a serious charge, has completely prostrated her. During the stay of Cinqmars and Musgrove in the Ramsey county jail, the former was visited by his parents and sister, but immediately after this Mrs. McLaughlin was taken ill, and is now under the physician's care at Rhinelander. Cinqmars, it Is claimed, was wanted for a robbery committed at Rhinelander about three years ago, but Mr. Erwin, seen yesterday, said he was not advised as to the matter ex cept what he had heard from the police authorities of the Twin Cities.

His Zeal Led Him Into an Error or Which He Was Ashamed. j Forest and Stream. Up among the green hills of Vermont two country ball nines were contending for su premacy one hot afternoon In an old pasture. Among the assembled spectators was a sad faced lop-eared "houn' dog" which had pre viously been investigating the contents of a. woodchuck hole. He had worked his passage ; in until no dog was visible, but a steady stream of dirt shooting out like the blast from the blow pipe of a sawmill proclaimed* that the investigation was still on. Becom ing tired of this, the hound was sitting down watching the home team getting "done up," when suddenly, without warning, he shot across the field with a trajectory as flat as a. 32:40 and with nearly the same velocity. The cause was soon apparent Several little girls were coming up through a hollow and one was Just tall enough for her brown hat ie show through the fringe of grass on the ris ing ground in front. Whfn the hound came near enough for the supposed woodchuck tc merge into a hat with a girl under it he stopped an tnstant with a look of horrified surprise. A yell arose from the assembled farmers, who had s-en the incident, suid this so mortified the hound that he made straight for home and was invisible for several days. Need Not Wash His Fu<*c.
