John Schmoker of Duncan was in
the city Saturday with the first load of
sugar beets we have seen ready for the
market- On about a quarter of an acre
he raised about two tons. He is of the
opinion that they will not be profitable
for fanners to raise unless they can get
about So a ton for them. To raise them
in large quantities some better way must
be found than planting and cultivating
by hand; the digging, cleaning and top
ping is no small job either.

E. W. Sims and son Walter of Mad
ison were in the city Tuesday evening
on their way home from New York city,
whore thoy had been for three weeks
past for the purpose of placing the boy
under treatment for hydrophobia. In a
talk with Mr. Sims ho told us that his
son was herding, Aug. 10th, when their
dog (one that they had raised, and that
had never shown any signs of madness),
ran a calf against a barbed-wire fence
and was biting it; he went to it, and in
striking it to make it let go the calf, the
dog turned and bit the boy in the arm.
He then ran away and they never heard
anything of him afterwards. Five head
of cattle were bit, two of which died of
hydrophobia and three were shot, to put
them out of their misery. The sight of
the animals in torments and the fact
that the son had also been bitten, nearly
distracted the father, and he took his
boy to the Pasteur Institute at New
York city. The physician in charge told
him that the lad would be slightly sick
the ninth day; and that was all the in
disposition he had while under treat
ment, which consisted only of injections
into each side, G7 in number, and at a
depth of of an inch. After three
weeks he was pronounced all right. Mr.
Sims gives a very interesting description
of tho institute and of the work cf the
physicians, all Frenchmen. They have
there, all the time, under treatment for
hydrophobia, from twelve to twenty-five
patients. The cost to Mr. Sims was
$200. The boy is a bright-looking lad of
thirteen years, and has every appearance
of leing in sound health.
From a communication iu the Clarks
Chronicle, from J. C. Martin (who with
W. B. Backus and A. Anderson have
Ijeen hunting in Wyoming) we quote:
"There is no place so much like h 1 as
Wyoming." "Superintendent Backus
shot the first deer, which turned out to
be a tame one, blind, crippled, and tied
to a tree. However, it made good eating.
The first trout was captured by Mr. An
derson, who secured it from an Indian
in exchange for a square meal and
smoke." "Backus lost his corns and
several years accumulation of dirt in the
springs" (hot springs near the Shoshone
agency.) "The Indians name persons
from some peculiar feature or character
istic. They called Anderson 'Scarred
Nose,' as he had some sticking plaster
on his nose from a wound received when
shooting a cobble stone for a rabbit.
They called Backus Big Eye,' and your
correspondent had a more expressive
than elegant cognomen, founded on the
appearance of his trousers, which had
been fractured in an encounter with a
saddle on a bucking broncho. Backus
had no difficulty in winning a wager that
he could eat more trout than Anderson
could catch. Our party saw two grizzly
bears before they saw us, so all escaped
without harm. The bears were going
west, so we went east, as we had not
lost any bears. As the laws of Wyoming
prohibit the taking of any game out of
the state, we can only tell of the large
quantity killed. Many amusing inci
dents happened on the trip, but would
probably be interesting only to the par
ticipants." J. B. Tschudy, P. Laughlin and A
M. Jennings have each received by ex
press, free of charge to them, a hand
some book of fUl pages entitled "Minne
sota in the Civil and Indian Wars,
1861-'65," prepared and published under
the supervision of the board of commis
sioners appointed by the act of legisla
ture of April 16, 1889. The whole num
ber of names of soldiers printed in the
volume is 26,717. It was Minnesota that
furnished the first three-years regiment
that reached the seat of war. It was a
Minnesota regiment that sustained the
greatest loss in the greatest battle of the
war the 1st Minnesota at Gettysburg.
Of the 262 men who made the charge
215 lay upon the field. The book is a
Ivery interesting one, and a credit to the
great state which gives it to her soldiers.
HELD UP A BOX CAR.
Five Men Arreted fur Brtakias Open aad
Sttalfes MerrfcaadLst frost a Car on the
U. P. Track La-st Winter.
A Journal reporter interviewed Frank
Snyder, one of the five implicated jn the
stealing, and gleaned the following from
him:
He says the theft was committed a
little while after Christmas last winter,
and on the night of the robber- Gray
told them that he had not purchased any
coal since he had lived here, went on to
tell them his mode of getting it; that
when the trains stopped at the B. & M.
crossing he would get on a car that was
loaded with coal and by time the train
got to the depot here, he would have
enough thrown off to last him several
days; so when tho train whistled they
went to the packing house, and Ott But
terfield said to Snyder "Here is a car
loaded with groceries." Snyder says
Butterfield opened tho car door and
went in and that he, Snyder, threw the
first box out, and Butterfield threw the
rest, four boxes in all, and four packages.
Tho boxes contained shoes and the
packages, smoking tobacco. He said
that Gray, Shilling and Barr carried the
boxes and tobacco over to Gray's house
and secieted them in between the walls
of the house.
Frank Snyder and his wife moved to
Fullerton, where Mrs. Snyder's mother
lives, and everything went on smoothly
until Mrs. Snyder told her mother about
the robbery here, and in some way
Sheriff Mawhinney got some clue of it
and about six weeks ago he went to Sny
der and got it full confession out of him,
he telling the sheriff where the shoes
were located in Gray's hanse, and the
men who were implicated with him in
the robliery.
Sheriff Mawhinney wrote to Sheriff
Caldwell with regard to it and the latter
and Deputy Campbell went to Gray's
houso, arrested him, searched the house
and found the shoes that were hidden
between the walls. Deputy Campbell
then went out to Grand Prairie town
ship and arrested Wm. Schilling and
brought him to this city, and the au
thorities at Creighton were notified to
arrest George Barr and Ott Butterfield,
which they did, and Sheriff Caldwell
deputized W. H. Randall to go after
them and he returned with his prisoners
Monday noon.
Sunday morning Sheriff Caldwell and
Charles Wake went to Gray's houso and
made another search but did not find
anything until they went into the cellar,
and the sheriff took the handle of a
shovel and commenced rapping on some
boards under the stairway and some
thing fell onto a piece of tin that was
used as a cover to an earthen jar. They
took the lioards off and in these jars
they found thirty more pairs of shoes.
As we go to press, the hearing of the
men is being had before Judge Hensley.
Frank Snyder, Ott Butterfield and
George Barr gave bonds for their ap
pearance at district court. Win. Schil
ling and Lee Gray had not yet given
bond and were in charge of the sheriff.
Luther Benson.
This noted lecturer talked to a good
audience at the M E. church Thursday
evening. He is the author of the book
called "Fifteen Years in Hell," and if
there is a hell upon earth, he certain ly
sounded its depths when he suffered the
pangs of delirium tremens as he de
scribes them. He is nervous, irritable
and very intent upon fixing his thought
upon tho minds of his hearers; has a
vivid imagination and is a good word
painter. Though speaking very rapidly,
nearly two hundred words a minute, ho
speaks distinctly. To those who have
never been familiar with the sufferings
of tho victim of delirium tremens (and
scarcely one in a thousand ha6), his
lecture was a revelation. In this brief
mention, we can only give a suggestion
of what he said.
There are no arguments in favor of the
liquor traffic. The liest way to lecture
on temperance is to answer the objec
tions made to it. The moderate drinker
nearly always quotes Paul's admonition
to Timothy to take a little wine for his
stomach's sane, but he never told him
to go and get Peter, James and John to
go with him to a saloon and fill up well
stomachs on wine mixed with poison.
Be temperate in all good things. As a
drunkard he had tried to taper off but
he found the taper end got about as
wide as the whole northern end of Indi
ana. Moderate drinkers made drunk
ards, but drunkards don't make moder
ate drinkers. The only proper way to
do is to cure the drunkard before he gets
the disease. He purposed to make his
boys superstitious against the use of
liquor. A reformed drunkard, mortally
sick, was prescribed liquor, but he re
fused to take it, saying "I wouldn't live
a life that liquor would save." Iu the
last hundred years in America ten
million graves have been dug for the
victims of liquor. His description or
the craving for liquor was a lurid pic
ture. Water satisfies thirst, bread sat
isfies hunger, but liquor satisfies neither,
but creates a craving that is more and
more impossible of satisfying. "Wine
is a mocker." With reference to drink
there are two roads open to the young
men of this country, one of which leads
to starry heights, the other to the dark
dungeons of despair and remorse. Take
temptation away from the boys. He
dwelt on first impressions, and claimed
that those of the young from the age of
one hour to that of ten years were the
very strongest, and were remeiiiljered
the longest. He knew that he inherited
the appetite for liquor, and gave some of
the reasons why he knew it, and it seem
ed to him that the craving was two
thousand years old in his veins. You
think yon don't inherit anything, but
the fact is you inherit everything the
appetite for drink has the same relation
to liquor as powder has to tire kept
separate, all peace, but bring them close
enough together, and you have an ex
plosion. When he couldn't get liquor he would
drink vinegar, camphor, sulphuric acid.
He had lain down at the gates of hell,
when every hair of his head seemed a
blaze of fire, and every blaze a hissing
snake, when the tqps of his boots were
dog heads, and tho boots filled with
writhing, twisting, hissing snakes the
head a whispering gallery for ten thou
sand demons. He quit drinking, had
not drank now for years, but every three
months I got drunk without liquor, and
the description of it was terrible. If
you are hungry for bread, starving, and
someone covers a loaf with arsenic, with
rat's bane, with Paris green, you will
clutch the loaf and eat it, anyhow. So
with liquor only a thousand times worse.
This craving has no regard for the dear
est ties on earth, wife, children, father,
mother; it handcuffs the bible, and fes
toons the cross with chains. His father
told him once, after a fifteen days and
nights struggle with snakes that crawled
in his bed, "I have given you up; you
are breaking my heart." Then he plead
for charity, that good men and women
would never fail to lend a helping hand,
to say a kind word to the unfortunate,
the erring, the despondent, the wayward;
these have a wonderful lifting power.
There are human beings everywhere who
are starving for sympathy. "Are you
God's wife," said a little starving child
to a lady who befriended her, gave her a
good meal and sent some eatables to her
mother. No wonder! She had heard
somewhere that God is good. You
can't do anything in your own strength.
He had learned that lesson and believed
just as much in spiritual birth as he did
in the physical. He believed that Chritt
had saved him and that he would keep
him. He knew the time and place of
his spiritual birth, had felt the power of
God's love, and the wonderful strength
of his salvation, and knew that without
His help he could do nothing. When
ever nothing can create something, tho
theory of infidelity might begin to have
a foothold with thinking people.
A choir, composed of Misses Mary and
Martha Turner and Alice Matthews,
J. N. Heater and J. A. Shuck furnished
excellent music, the anthem, "Praise ye
the Lord," being unusually well render
ed; the duett in the anthem is a fine
piece of composition und was very fitly
interpreted by Miss Matthews and Miss
Mary Turner.
At the opera house Friday evening Mr.
Benson directed his attention to answer
ing objections to prohibition. That the
law would be violated; true he said; if
there was no violation there would be
need of the law. That prohibition is a
failure; if that is true, why should the
other side keep up such a roar about it?
He then gave, in detail, his observations
in Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and
Texas, and proclaimed it a glorious suc
cess in lessening crimes, exjienses of
public prosecutions, etc. In Rockwall
county, Texas, where drunkenness and
fights had been prevalent, and where
the courts couldn't keep up with the
criminal business through liquor, fights,
murders, etc., the jail is now actually
used as a corn crib. On tho saying,
"you let liquor alone, and it will let you
alone," the speaker gave instance after
instance from current events,where men
frenzied by drink, had destroyed proper
ty and the lives of wives and children,
and all these horrors were attributed to
drink and nothing else. Wo must
chantro our method. Aow we license a
man to sell intoxicating liquor, and
when a poor wretch fills up with the
poison and the liquor in him commits a
crime we lock the man up. If you must
manufacture the stuff, gather it all to

DIED.
IUUEK- Thursday. Oct. 9th, of paralysis,
Tobias C. Bluer, aged il jears.
Some months ago Mr. Mauer was stricken with
jaralfi of the right side, and though he rallied
from it somewhat, and was able to bo abont and
do light work, the stroke seemed to fiermanentl)
affect him, and he never entirely recovered
from it. Hi death-stroke came while he was
doing chores, at his barn.
Mr. Hauer was liorn in Germany in 1321', came
to this country when a boy of 11 jean and lived
at Colnmbns. O., then in Kansas. In the sum
mer of 'i'J he removod to this city, and ha since
resided here. He leaves a wife and two children
Emma, wife of F. II. Itascho of this city, and
Miss Louis- Eaner.
He was an excellent citizen, a loving, consid
erate hnband, and a fond father. The home
circle is broken, and the lovi of the family is ir
reparable. Only He. in whose hind is the dee
tiny of all, can give consolation in such
affliction.
The funeral services were held at the family
residence Sunday afternoon at 2, Ilev. H.
Miessler officiating, and a very large concourse
of neighbors and friends followed the remains to
the cemetery.
