An old man John Noble , and hailing
from Spring Falls , Dak. , was yesteiday
found by Ollicer Untliauk , very drunk
and lying behind the electric light build
ing. The old gentleman had quite tiMim
of mono'upon him , and the wonder is
that he was not relieved of it before the
ofllccrs took him in charge.

The meeting of the city council to beheld

vitally interested in several matters now
pending before the council , and the course
of the aldermen will be watched with
eagerness.
Charles Allen , whoso name is a familiar
one in police court , was yesterday ur-
rested for having forgotten his red ribbon
promise , and haying boon gloriously
drunk forsovoral days. On being searched
and locked up at the city jail , he tore
around as though mad about something ,
and eamo near demolishing ono or two
of the olliccrs wilh a chair. He did not
succeed , however , in keeping out.
There arc a. few young follows who
think it very smart to disturb the meet
ings of the Salvation army. These of
fenders should bo promptly dealt with.
If Iho Salvationists are violating any law ,
tlioro is a way of reaching them and pun
ishing thorn , and it certainly is a discredil
to the city , and to those who thus disturb
the soul seekers , to hirvo the meetings
broken into by lawless fellows who have
no rogaid for themselves or others.

council to call a special election for the
purpose of voting a tax of 0 mills in
1887 , and 0 mills in 1888 , for aiding in
constructing the approaches to the pro
posed wagon bridge at the foot of Broad
way. The advantage which such a bridge
would bring to tins eity are conceded ,
and tlioro will bo little dltUculty in secur
ing the passage ot the tax. It is claimed
that the additional property which will
bo added to this city by this enterprise ,
will annually afl'oru a larger revenue
than the proposed t > pecal ! tax to build
thu approaches. Council lilulls folks
want to see all the proposed enterprises
pushed right along , and the days of old

Hayes were pluced in Ihe county jail Sun
day night , and , > e torday they were to bo
brought up before Judge AyloM\orth
The now revolving jail was being 10-
liuiiud , and could not bo unolvcd so as to
bring their cells opposite the o\it. It
was late in the afternoon before the two
ptisoners could bo got out of jail. The
ehargo of murder was read to them , and
they were given a chance to secure legal
advice. By agreement of attorneys the
bail was Used at 5-7.V ) each , with the
that if they could get bail
the pieliminary hearing would bo post
poned , hut that if not able to do so thu
hearing should be had at once.
The theory Is that these two men bemg
in the party were pretty well satisfied
thai Schismlircd Iho falal shot , but that
from a dcMic to piolccl him , or a dislike
of swearing lee hard against him , they
made their ignorance co\er a very im
portant part of the tragedy , not thinking
that they might be drawn into the un
pleasant condition in which they now
lind themselves. It is surmised that now
that they lind tlio responsibility of Keat-
ing's death rehtiiig upon the three who
were with him when ho was shot , they
will hasten to relieve theiubelves of the
responsibility by ( hiding out that Schisler
fired the shot. Before tno coroner's jury
they swore that they did not see who
fired it. ' If they diJ not it was a bad
oversight on their p.irt , and other evi
dence will have to be uot lo tlnow light
upon the cause of the unfortunate man's

The Fariiior'H Orator.
There was a small audience gathered
in Dohany's hall yesterday aftciuoon to
hear the address of Prof. C. L. Whitney.
The address was worthy of a larger gath
ering. He is a very pleasing speaker ,
sprightly , logical and entertaining as well
as imparting sensible ideas. Ho gave the
farmers some excellent advice. He
pictured tlio nobility of their calling ,
going back to the first man on carMi , to
whom God gave all things , that man being -
ing n farmer. Since then in the Bible
there was no record of any special calling
being given by God , except the ono when
he bade his disciples go forth and preach
the word to all nations. Ho urged tlio
farmers not to bo ashamed of Iheir calling ,
He said lie himself stood live feet eight
inches , but when ho thoughtof the honor
of being a farmer , ho felt that ho ought
to bo eight feet live , and wear a tall hat
on top of that , lip also spokp of the
necessity of system in doing agricultural
business , as well us organization. The
merchant recognized the advantage of
this. When asked what he would
sell a suit of clothes for , he would
figure the cost of the cloth , the
trnnniing , the buttons , the lining , the
making , and adding a sum for contin
gencies and profit , lie would thus reach
the pricCi lo bo asked. The farmer ad
mired this way of calculating. Ho
thought it was business-like , but when
the merchant came along and asked the
farmer what ho would sell potatoes for
the farmer would not sit down and figure
up the cost of production and fix a price.
but would say , "Oh , I 'don't know , what'll
you givey" The farmers needed to con
duct their business more on business
principles , ami organise so as lo under
stand each other , just as other business
men do. Professor Whitney is ono of the
lecturers belonging to tlio lecture bureau
of the Patrons of Husbandry , and ho is
evidently well lilted for his mission of
arousing the farmers and giving thorn
some ideas which will bear thinking over
ami through. It is Jo bo regretted that
more of that class did not attend. Should
ho chance this way again he will doubt
less bo greeted by n full houso. Ho cer
tainly could entertain and interest any
aiulioiicu.

coniplptp dijo ) | uhvlion of the countty
aie hinted al as by no moans Improbabln
contingency sliotild thp present state of
political tension e ml lire much longer and
no prospect open of a sensible solution
The fact is that the state of the country
is hopeless ; in almost every direction ,
.starvation , and dislres * . in various
stages of aputpnp s is the general comli
lion of this whole land. Knowing that
tin- main reason ot this is simply misrule ,
thu govpinmpnt Is sending qiuetrj Miip-
loads of relief to the wor.'t allectttl part *
of the country , of cour.se at the ospcnse
of the Icelanders t hpniH-lves. 'Ihe com-
nu'rcial treaty with Spain , which termin
ated in 188 ! ) , and the renewal of which on
the basis of the most favored nation
clause was negotiated successfully in tlie
same year , was thrown out in HIP Danish
rigsdag. ini'iL'ly by way of reinitiation ,
the ics.ilt being that the staple ' -\porl of
Iceland , codfish , hnsbpen practically ex
cluded from tin- Spanish market , anil the
Ioi8 sustained by the pool population ,
who earn their living by fishing , lias
amounted yearly to nearly 100,003groner.
Reasons ol Male forbid a separate treaty
bc'ng ' negotiated on behalf of Icelandbe
cause it might be construed as an ac
knowledgment on the part of t IIP govern
ment of ppumark of Iceland as a opar-
ate unit in the Danish monarchy.
Then the truck-svstom nil over the Ian J
is exercising : the most grinding oppres
sion over the people. Icelandic trade is
carried on altogether with Danish capital.
At nn interest of at least 18 per cent , the
impecunious Icelandic trader obtains his
loan from Iho Darish capitalist , which
the formers Mnrvinir customers , of
p.our.se , have to refund him. The customer
sinks deeper and deeper in debt , anil so
serious has this state ot things now be
come that multitudes of debtors have
been forced by the mei chants to pledge
all their earthly possessions and pros-
peethe earnings , moieo\cr , until their
debts shall be liquidated.
Yielding to the clamor of the country
lor a bank , the govtir/imqnt has just es
tablished one this ji-arj But , in older
that it .should be powerless to give any
relief to the oppiessc1/ / ! trade of the coun
try , only 0(10,000 ( kroner of inconvertible
paper euriency worn issued ; it is made a
legal tender , and tlie'cpu'sequence ' is that
customs and duties \vhiclt hitherto have
been paid in specie willi hencelorth be
paid in paper , and what ' .specie imports
were formerly rcquirj-tl f r the payment
of customs , etc. , will iiiovy cease. Practi
cally this moans withdrawing from the
treasury at least : ! 00 , < VK1 kiouer of specie
yearly , and involves jiltiijiatcly the abso
lute financial ruin of thoilanil. . By such
a tit-nomination of eummey as the bank
has at its disn'osaf no assist
ance can be allimt d or impe
tus given to tliix/ trade of the
country. Stnrting without any capital
und unable to undertake any money tran
sactions except in inconvertible paper ,
contracts and negotiations with foreign
banks will become all but impossible. If
it were not for tlio excellently conducted
Scotch trade with the island , which is
extending every year , the condition of
Iceland would now bo one of unpaiallcled
misery. Perhaps , however , the worst
feature ot the situation is the unscrupu
lous selfishness and rare incapacity of the
higher rulci.s of the people , to whom such
a thing as study of national interests
.seems to be something infra diguitatum.
Bureaucratic hupercilionsnesb thrives ap-
p.irently well in the midst of misery. The
feeling in the counlry under lhc.se cir
cumstances is anything but reassuring ,
anil what the upshot will bo if the king
should yeto the revised constitution no
one can foretell.

bag of red flannel securely sowed within
tint pillow upon which his reverend head
had roposcu. Thereupon ho concluded
that ho had been conjured , and this was
the cause of his domestic unbappiness.
His first impulse was to throw the bag
into the river. Ho changed his mindhow
ever , and took the conjtne bug to Mayor
Wilder , of Albany , who reassured him
by the information that the true purpose
of the bag was to restore harmony in n
divided household. This had the desired
cll'cct anil husband and wife arc now In
the bliss of a renewed honeymoon.
There has just appeared In Vienna the
first number of a now Knglish weekly

The t roprietor of a celebrated restau

nal as being , in appearance and dre.ss , n
combination of an Knglish lord , a United
States bi'imtur , an American poet and a
French painter.
