3 ha Unit IM ! States Court.
Yesterday was n , busy day iu the federal
court. The case of H. Hcrguiun vs the \\'o-
busli railway company was called. The
plaintiff was an employe of the road and lost
both legs whllo engaged in clearing away n
wreck nt Stun berry , Mo. Ho sued for heavy
damages , alleging that the accident was duo
to carelessness on the part of the company.
It was tried In the federal court n year ago
and the Jury returned a verdict In favor of
the defendant. The verdict was sot nsldo
ana a now trial granted. The plaintiff was
not reiJy for trial yesterday , and moved for
continuance. The court Intimated that ho
would graft It , but stated thatn decision
would not bo rendered until this uftcrnoou ,
Ho adviied soUllngxtbo cnsu if possible.
The matter created souio talk between the
attorneys , and the plaintiff's counsel said
that they had tried to icttlo the cu o and bad
offered to tnKo $ . " ,000. The attorneys for the
dcfenfto objected to the amount nnd said they
had offered $ . ' 1,600. The court then stated
that Inasmuch ns the plaintiff desired the
court to make n settlement , and us the de
fendant's property wni In the hands of the
court , Inasmuch as Thomas McKissoclc was
the receiver and ail ofllcer of the court , he
would follow the example of Justice Miller
In Arkansas , nnd take tha bull by the horns.
The court then ruled that "tho Judpinent
will bo the Issuance of nn order to the re
ceiver , nn oftlccr of this court , to pay plain
tiff M.2.JO. The question of costs will bo
settled later.
"It may turn out , however , " continued the
court , "as did the caio to which I have re-
forrcd , where tlio bull crowded the Justice
over the precipice , ua they took the cauo up
and had linn reversed. "
"That can hardly bo in thlicase , " declared
Judge Hubbard , "ns your honor seems to
huVu cut oft nil tbo horns , us the amount is
lUed nt less tnnn J.'i.OUO . , nnd wo have no
chance to appeal. " *
The attorneys for the plaintiff said they
were willing to have the amount raised to
$5,000 , but the court stated that ho did not
propose to give the defense a chance to ap
peal , nnd the case , which bid fair to consume
a week's time , was settled ,
Thocasoof Frazier vs Kelley was then
called. The plaintiff seeks to collect on a
promissory uoto. The defendant moved
to dismiss on the ground that
the court had no Jurisdiction.
The motion was sustained under the lows of
March , Ibi * , that provide that where the
maker and payee of iv note both reside In the
state thu federal court has no Jurisdiction.
Inasmuch ns the payee was n Council Hluffs
bank , the maker n resident of Mills county ,
tbo fuct that the note had been transfcrod to
Truyier. who resides In South Omalm , was
net sufficient to bring the case within the
Jurisdiction of the federal court , and It was
accordingly dismissed ,
The crand Jury made Its first report and
returned four indictments. Hut , ono parjy
was under arrest Hugh McHratney of
Manning , charged with selling liquor with
out u license. Ho pleaded pullty , nnd was
lined $100 and costs and sentenced to thirty
days ia the county Jail.
The case of S. ii. Wadsworth , administra
tor , vs. the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul
railway company , was dismissed without
prejudice on motion of the plumtllf. This is
the case in which it was sought to recover
several thousand dollars damages for the
do-itli of the Italian , Angola Gigliotti , in the
Milwaukee wreck of this city a few months
"go.
"go.The case of William Johnsonguardian , vs.
J , H. Henry was on trml before Judge Shims
and will not bo completed before the last of
the week. The defendant is accused of Il
legally securing property from the plaintiff's
ward , Oscar Noff , who was not in n mental
condition to warrant turn in doing business ,
and it is sought to compel Henry to Uisgorga
it. Henry formerly resided at Walnut but
now lives in California mid baa been on here
thrco times to try the case but this is HA
llrst hearing.
It Is thought that nil of the business of the
term will bo concluded this week and that a
llnal adjournment will betaken on Saturday.
If it is found necessary to continue next
week Judge Love will bo compelled to go it
nlouc.as Judge Shims has to leave Saturday
night.

The Mail Delivery.
Some days ago the evening delivery of
mall was stopped on account of the fact that
it necessitated the carriers working rnoro
than eight hours per day. The inconveni
ence of the change was sorely felt by the
merchants and business men of tbo city who
have been accustomed to receiving their
evening mail nt their oftlces , nnd steps were
nl once taken to secure the reinstatement of
the delivery. Resolutions wore passed by
the real estate exchnngo and n petition was
circulated for signers , nnd both these docu
ments wore forwarded to the dennrtmontjat
Washington. Postmaster Troynor nlso
wrote to Washington in regard to the mat
ter , asking if an increase of the number of
carriers sufllciont to make the delivery possible -
siblo could not be made. In reply ho re
ceived a communication from the superin
tendent of the free delivery system at
Washington , J. F. Hates , who says the
mntter will be referred to nn inspector who
will shortly be sent hero to oxnmino into the
needs of the free delivery service in this
city. No action will therefore be taken in
the mntter tilt the report is mndo. Inns-
much ns it Is strictly prohibited to worlc
enrners more than eight hours u day and as
there uro not now enough carriers lo do thu
work with the now mails that hnvo been
added , it is evident , that there must bo more
carriers or unsatisfactory delivery. A re
quest has boon sent in for live now men.
When it is known that soventy-two mails
per day , in nnd out , nro hnndied here , it will
be been thnt there is n vust amount of work
to bo done.

GOT A COFFIN BY FKAUD.
The 1'oor Girl Thought Slio JWns to
StiiK for the I'rlnce.
The cnse of Eliza Anne Fitzhugh. n
toucher of music , and her mother , who
were charged , before Police .lustico-IIa-
clcn Corsoy , in this place , with obtain
ing property under falsa pretenses , is of
unusiUU interest , writes a Dalston , Eng
land , correspondent of the -Now York
Sun , because it is a very Sad case , and
because it pictures a curious phase of
English society.
Miss Fitzhugh was a young woman of
good repute , who had a line and well
trained voice , and in 1SS8 was malting
enough money to support herself and
her filth or antt mother , the father being
nn invalid. In October , 1SS3 , Mr. Hayward -
ward , the manager of Prof. Baldwin ,
who was at that time jumping from a
balloon when at a great height , came to
Miss FiUhugh and asked her to under
take the task of getting the Prince of
Wales to'attend one of Baldwin's oxhi-
bitiojris. lie promised her 10 if she
succeeded.
Accordingly Miss Fit/.hugli got an ap
pointment to moot Sir Francis Knollys
at Mat'lborough house , and there suc
ceeded so well that the prince , princess
and their three daughters attcndcdthe
show at Alexandra palace. Miss Fitz-
hngh had the honor of singing heforo
the princely family when they were
there also , but she never got the 10
promised to her nor any other sum.
She had been at considerable _ expense
for dress and otherwise in this matter ,
and so got-into dobt. it was then her
troubles began. She tried to got an ap
pointment as vocalist in the family of
the prince , and those who promised to
help her to the post told her she was
sure to succeed , and even sent her let
ters of conj/nitulation on the certainty
of her appointment , Holying on this
Miss Fitzhugh neglected to try for other
pupils , and while waiting for the ap
pointment got deeper in debt.
Along in December , 18S9 , her father
died. To provide for the funeral she
went to an undertaker and told him she
had" boon appointed to the post of vo-
calist'in the family of the prince , and
he thereupon trusted her for the price
of a decent funeral. The bill was sent
to Marlborough house. It happened
that a Miss Fitzhugh was employed
there in another capacity , and she got
the hill. Her father wasn't dead and
she didn't owe any undertaker for bury
ing him. So she made a fuss about it.
Miss Li/.zic Fitzhugh. on being naked
to explain , at once told the whole story
truthfully. The undertaker , Mr. John
Gray , of Seven Sisters' road , offered to
forgive her the debt , hut the prince's
household would not allow that.
Meantime Mrs. Fitzhugh , the mother
of the teacher , believing that the ap
pointment had been already made , had
obtained credit olsowncro for food by
telling that her daughter was employed
by the prince. The prosecutor who
represented tbo prince hunted up these
cases and mother and daughter were
arrested.
At the trial the girl told the whole
story. She told the magistrate that
hor'mothor was perfectly innocent of
the fraud and the whole blame rested
upon her. The magistrate might do as
lie pleased with her , but if ho would-be
so kind as not to send her mother again
to lie on the plank bed , which would
kill her , she would bo thankful. The
younger prisoner further told the mag
istrate thnt for the past four years she
had struggled to keep her sick father
and mother. Her father was now dead
and her mother very ill. She had
known great privations and had seen
her father and mother with scarcely
any food to eat.
The magistrate hold the prisoners
lor trial , but released the mother on
her own recognizance.
The presence qf K. II. Sothorn in the
Twin Cities reminds the Pioneer Press
of a story a gentleman named Trow-
bridge used to tell about the baptism of
' Lord Chumloy. " Trowbridge , when
young Sothorn was a baby , lived oppo
site E. A , Sothorn's residence in Now

It is now generally believed that the
Eoil of the Missouri valley is particular
ly well adapted to the growing of boots
for sugar. The numerous sugar tests ,
largo and smnll that have been made
with beets grown in Nebraska are al
most conclusive evidence of this. But
the growing of beets for susrar and the
liundlin ; : of them BO that sugar can be
secured from them is a work requiring
Knowledge and skill nt every stop.
Jlavir.g n suitable soil for growing
beets rich in sugar it is necessary to
plant a strain of seeds in which the su
gar quality lias been developed. The
beet sugar industry has had a great re
vival in France since Prof. Villo of the
experiment station has developed n
strain of beets , a method of selecting
setd beets and of fertilizing by winch
the percentage of btjets has boon dou
bled in tjholast fifteen years. The grow
ing of seed for sugar bents is
not developed hero and no
seed should bo planted except
imported French grown seed of ap
proved selection till we get a domestic
supply * of seed that has been grown in
the best way.
The time and method of planting the
seed nnd quantity of ? ced per acre tire
the same that are required in growing
beets for stock food. It is recommended
by some writers that the beets bo
planted in drills eighteen inches apart.
Such writers got their experience in
cultivation out of books printed in Ger
many where the only tools are the
spade and hoc. Americans must grow
beets , if they grow them nt all , with
horse power cultivation. The rows ,
therefore , must bo planted far enough
apart to admit a horse cultivator. This
will necessitate planting thirty inches
or more apart. No attempt should bo
made to "cultivate with the rows closer
than two feet. 1 ho soil must bo
plowed deep and prepared for the seed
in the most perfect manner. For , un
less this is done , the early cultivation
cannot bo such ' 'as will eradicate the
weeds , and weeds and sugar in beets
don't grow together.
There is ono point in cultivating
beets for sugar that is all important ;
that is the beetroot must bo irrown
under ground. If the soil is raked
away from the top of the beet the action
of the sun causes "reversion" oN the
sugar to take place and the beet is
ruined for sugar making. The beet
row can bo hilled up successfully with
almost any of the cultivators now in
use , but should bo gone over with the
hoc and trimmed up where the cultiva
tor has done imperfect worlc.
Harvesting of the bccts should bo be
gun early in Soptemhor , and the beets
should , 'If possible ; bo drawn to the
factory as fast as dug. There is a horse
machine made for harvesting beets ,
but they ami bo qulnlcly Jvipr by ( roinfy
once on each side of the row with a
common plow and throwing the furrow
Irom the row. tncn spading the roots
out with a common potato spado. In
harvesting beets care must bo taken
not to leave them long exposed
to the hot sun or to pile them
up in largo piles whore
they will be cxuosed to changes
of temperature. Either condition will
cause sugar "reversion" to take place
and render the beet valueless for sugar.
If they must bo stored they should be
pitted in lots not exceeding a ton. Any
treatment which causes a quantity of
beets to hent. be it ever so little , causes
"reversion. "
In Germany , where beet production
bus prospered very well , and whore
cultivation is carried to the highest
perfection , the avorairo product of sugar
boots is a little over thirteen tons per
acre. Fora number of years it re
quired cloven pounds of boots to make
one pound of sugar , but improved seed
has changed the proportion till now
eight and'onehalf pounds of boots
make one pound of sugar. The
Gorman sugar factories liavo u
capacity of only about 24,000 tons
ctch : , during the season ; and so each
fnistory can handle the product of loss
than two thousand acres. In Cnlitornia
several crops of sugar beets have
yielded nn average of twenty-one tons
per acre and were grown at tin esti
mated cost ot $61 per aero.
It is .tho custom of sugar beet fac
tories to buy the beets at so much per
ton , with the grower to guarantee the
beets to yield a certain per cent of
sugar. If "reversion" takes place , or
by any other accident the beets do not
come up to the standard , the farmer
suffers the loss. It is this phase of
sjgar beet growing which makes it im
perative that the farmer handle his
boot crop throughout the season with
skill and intelligence , keeping the ono
idea of sugar production always in
view.
Clover In
Cotton was acknowledged King of all
the agricultural productions up to about
the year 1800. During the war the
prices of wool ruled so high that wool
was admitted to bo king of farm pro
ducts. From the year 1S70 to 18SO
wheat was crowned king and thousands
of acres of rich prliirio soils were bro
ken up and sown , to wheat. From 1880
to 1890 corn scomod to ho the most prot-
Jtnblo farm crop to rniso and was
crowned Icing by the western farmers.
The , rich soils of , the western prairies
produced largo mid prolitablo crops with
but little expense for cultivation and
placing on the market , but the price of
corn now rules so low with so many
other things working against its proilt-
able production that it must soon yield
up its crown.
The time will soon come when the
crown will have to lie placed on the
bond of clover , says the Now Knglnnd
Farmer. It is easily raided , the seed
costs but little ; it costs but little to pre
pare the ground for its reception.
There is as much certainty of securing
a good stand as with any other crop if
sown early enough in the season. It
makes' the finest and best pasturage if
not turned on to too young ; it makes
the best and most nutritious hav for all
kind of farm stock. Possibly horses
may bo excepted by some horsemen ;
but it is doubtful if a healthy horse wns
well-cured clover
over Injured by eating
ver hay. Clover enriches the soli , and
every Hold raising u crop of clover is
continually increasing in fertility. Its
long tap roots run down deep into tno
soil and bring to the surface molbturo
and mineral fertilizers ; while- its broadleaves
loaves absorb moisture , free nitrogen
and other fortili/.lng gases that are
freely distributed throughout the at-
mosphi.ro from docajing vegetation
und other matters , uceomjm& > t ll
double bo no IK by Increasing its own
growth and purifying the atmosphere.
Swoct Or en in Mutter.
At this time the question is raised in
regard to churning sweet cream. 1 will
state that last January I tried six ex
periments. Three with ripened cronn )
nnd throe with eronm perfectly sweet.
Weighed the milk carefully thnt was sot
for churning oij onch trial , and the re
sult wns that In every case I got as much
butter from the sweet cronm ns I did
from the ripened cronm , says a writer
in Hoard's Dairyman. In each trial I
put into the cream before churning a
naif pound of Liverpool salt to the
amount of cream that would make
twoivo pounds of butter. The salt has
a chemical olTcot upon the cronm thnt
causes it to liberate the butter as per
fectly ns nny process of churning will.
Cream that Is sweet nnd salted in the
manner above will churn ns easily ns
when acidilled.
To got the host result from the churn
the buttermilk should not bo above
00s Fahrenheit when the churning is
done. Will the swcot cream butter
keep ? Yes , it will keep long enough in
winter time to bo nil entcn up in this
market , nnd command the highest mar
ket price. Then why go to the trouble
of souring cream if one can got as much
butter and can sell till ho can make at
the highest market price by churning
sweet cream ?
I have a dairy of sixty cowsmako but
ter six months and cheese Six months.
Never sold butter for less than 25 cents
per pound. I have boon at the business
for twenty years. If I make any change
it will bo to get an extractor.
Cross-Itrci ! Poultry for the Murker.
The most successful market poultry
is that which is obtained by proper
crossing. And wnat branch of the bus
iness pays so well ns that which sup-
lilies the table of the rich nnd the poor ?
There is profit in breeding fancy fowls
after a reputation has boon achieved ,
but that costs money an'd time. Market
poultry needs no reputation. All it re-
quire's is good common sense , and
enough experience to run the business ,
says a writer in the American Agricul
turist. The average farmer lias these.
The writer has been severely criti
cised by seine fancy breeders for his
stand on crosses , but , us his aim is to
benefit the market , ho feels justified in
his position. Besides , there is plenty
of room for both fancy and market poul
try. Wo need the fancier , by all
means. Wo cannot produce crosses
without purc-breds. There are two
great points desired in the breeding of
poultry an increased production
of eggs , and improvement for
the table. These are the legiti
mate grounds which justify cross-breed
ing. In crosses wo combine quality
with size , as for example , lloutian on
Cochin or Brahma , or Cochin on pork-
ing. This latter cross is after the En
glish fashion. They take a good ttyp-
yoar-old Cochin coclc and mate with six
good Dorking hens of a year old. Tlic
pullets of the cross are next season
mated with game , and * their produce is
then marketed. Thus they gain sixe
from the Cochin , and quality from the
Dorking. By the game cross very little
in size is sacrificed , while another first-
rate cross in point of quality , is added.
An Knglishman , referring to this cross ,
once said : ' 'The llesh is white ns snow ,
nnd as savory as any aldcrmnnic gour
mand could desire. " It must bo under
stood , however , that nothing is pained
by mating the progeny. Cross-bred
birds should never bo muted , together.
When mo make the cross wo have the
ideal of our experiment ; beyond that
there is a downward tendency.
Wo do not believe any great success
Can be obtained in mntltifr for inoroiisod
egg production. That is , no cross can
bo secured that will give a higher egg
record than that which some of our
noted strains now have. It is principally - '
pally for an improvement of table qual
ity that wo recommend inter-breeding.
Cnrc of Ilrood Sows.
Those who are to have early litters of
spring pigs must give the brood sows
proper foot and treatment during the
winter months. The lirsl requisite is
good shelter and a clean , wholesome
sleeping place. The next is a reason
able amount of liberty. It will not dote
to keep a brood sow shut up continu
ously in a small pen , oven if it is kept
reasonably clean. She will become
sluggish and inert , with none of the
vigor nnd muscular stamina needed to
produce and rear healthy pigs. A cer
tain amount of exercise every day is
"
necessaty , says the American" Agricul
turist , 'if she will not take her dally
"constitutional" of her own accord , it
is best to drive her out. Nothing is
bettor during mild , open weather than
the run of a lot whore she may root to
her heart's content. Never put a ring
in tno nose ot a uroou sow.
The food should be abundant , but not
of n fattening character. Millc. bran ,
and middlings , with a small modicum
of oil-meal , varied frequently by boiled
turnips , carrots , beets , or other roots ,
clover-hay chopped short and mixed
'
with tho' cooked ration , and in cold
weather a small pro par * ion of corn meal ,
will keep the animal in good , thrifty
condition. It is well to remember that
swine are omnivorous ; and an occasional
morsel of animal food is' always
acceptable. The "lights , " entrails and
other waste material of a slaughter
house , when attainable , are desirable
additions to the animal's dietary. It is
well to keep a mixture ol salt , charcoal ,
and a liulo sulphur in a trough where
the sow can help herself ad libitum. It
is alwayrt host to keep brood sows sep
arate fi'om the rest of the herd. This
in specially imperative us the timiffor
fat rowing approaches.
THE ROMANCE" IDAHO.
How the Stnto Wns Named for
I'rotiy Mull ) Indian Ulri.
In the autumn of 18(15 ( I resided in
Twenty-second street , \ow Vorlc , says
Dr. Kdward P. Uochu In the Boston
Journal. A genial-fellow boarder wns
ngontlomnn of forty-live years of ago ,
who was putting some mining stock on
the market. His nnino was Cole , and
ho claimed the distinction of having

gross from the new territory , and of
receiving the largest mileage over paid

to San Francisco , thence ( around the
Horn ) by way of Now York to Washing

account of how the name cnmo to be
adopted also the selected meaning , or
rather the meaning which ho and
others concluded to give as the Indian
word's translation. One bright morn
ing about 10 o'clock , in company with
another gentleman interested in
the " government of the terri
tory , while riding over some
barren mountain tops. , or rather hills ,
the road became ho rough as to compel
the slowest traveling. As they plodded
on the nnmp of the nov : territory be
came a topic of conversation. While
talking1 over the various names that had
been suggested tnoy came to the top of
a small plateau on Iho further edge of
which stood an Indian hovel or cabin.
The utter lonlincss of the spot sug
gested to the travelers thnt they had
come upon the hiding place of some out
law , of whom the country then boasted
ii great number. Just before they
reached , but while in plain view from
the cabin , an Indian woman came oit
and called out several times in a high-
spirited , far-reaching voice the word
Idaho. The tone was a combination of
those of the Bivlss yodeler , the Spanish
Indian and Louisiana nogross , and , as
was .supposed , u call to tli squaw's hus
band. The sound of the voice as given
by Mr. , and ho had been familiar with
the Indians for some years , was Kd-dah-
hoo-oo-oo drop from the first K to the
second , a long a , almost as if ah-ah ,
and n musicnl , long-drawn out dwelling
upon the hoo. using tbe full force of tlic
lungs in expiration and crescendo.
The s-ciunw s call was answered by the
sudden appearance of an Indian' girl
about nine years of age. She was clean
nnd better'looking than most ot hci
race. The inference of both Mr. Cole
nnd his companion was thnt Idaho was
the girl's name , and the idea ol adopt
ing it us tlm nnme of the now territory
occurred to both men about the same
time , Mr. Cole claiming to bo the lirst
to speak.
All cfiords to find the English of tbo
word resulted in failure , and iinally , in
consideration of the sex and surround
ings of tbo Indian whose name had
helped solve the difficulty in finding
ono for territory , that of Gem of the
Mountains was decided upon. The real
meaning of the word Mr. Cole never
knew. As the Indians name their
children from physical peculiarities or
circumstances occurring at their birtb ,
and as the child wns born about day
light , the translation of Light on the
Mountains was lirst deemed a good one ,
but its fitness as a name for the terri
tory had to give way to the more appro
priate one of ( ! cm of the Mountains ,
which wns given to congress as tlio
translation of the Indian word.
I narrate the tale as I got it from Mr.
Cole , and add what , at the time f sug
gested to him- that the territory erect
a monument on the spot where the
name was selected add as an amend
ment that Jonquil ! Miller , tlio poet of
the Sierras , write the inscription.
