The contest from the county of Saline
promise * to be the active and interesting
feature in politics until its disposition by
the legislature , and It is very apparent
tlmlS.tllnc county is furnishing a great
share of the exciting bouts ami tussles in
the campaign in the state the present
year. The opposition made up of dt-in-
cerate nntt self-styled stalwart republi
cans down in S.tllnn are making a des
perate effort to defeat the seating of
Ui-proscntatlvo Fishbtirn as well as Son-
tUor-oloct Duras , anil a delegation of
.Saline men were til the "tale capital on a
Aoheming tour yesterday. Under the
law the secretary of state will call the
house to order for temporary organisa
tion and ho will prepare n roll of mom-
bers-ck'ct from thu returns. In the enso
of Mr. Fishbtmi , who was n tie with Mr.
King , the drawing for the place conducted
at the county scat of Sallnn resulted in
favor o ! Mr. L'isliburn unit he holds the
ccrtillcate. Thu county clerk of that
county has cortilled this result to Secre
tary Ko < rgen , and it is safe to say that
rishburn will bo recognized , HO that the
schemers had better look elsewhere than
to the secretary of slate for assistance in
their schemes.
COONS nni.i > roit TIMAI , .
The trial of E. 11. Coons was continued
yesterday at the county eourt.tho prosecu
tion not resting their case until the noon
hour , when the number of lime cheeks
in evidence hail reached seventeen. It
has been rumored that the defeiibo would
prove that in the ease of the ilrst time
cheek introduced , anil which was written
for licnkhart. that there was mioh a per
son at work for the company. This was
met by the prowoution , who produced a
time check for I lie Honkhart at work for
them and on which ho was paid his waires
for the month , which leave ? the original
check , upon which thu case was started ,
rather lonesome and with an extra , out
side air about it. The defense took the
Hour at the opening of the afternoon
session. The line followed by them at
tacked the niiinner in which tune checks
were handled , and the looseness of thn
company's way of dealing with them.
The tlelcnsu concluded its side at 4
o'clock , and Judge 1'arker reviewed the
case and bound Coons over to the district
court under $1,000 bonds.

HENRY M. STANLEY'S WORK.

London Telegraph : At a meeting of
the common council yesterday Mr. Mor
risen recounted the services which Mr.
Stanley hail rendered to the world at
largo. In 1808 he was in the British ex
pedition to Abyssinia , and for purchasing
abundance of rations at critical periods
and in assisting Captain Speedy ( of the
Intelligence department ) ho received a
sliver medal Iroin the British govern
ment. In 1871 he discovered Livingstone
and relieved his immediate wants. In
1ST' ! he equipped another expedition to
allow Livingstone to complete his discov
eries. In 187-1 , ' 75 , ' 7li and ' 77 ftlr.
Stanley completed the discoveries of
Speke , GrantBurton , and Livingstone ,
with the result that ho found that the
grandest river in Africa , the Congo , was
available for the easy promotion of com
merce and eiviP/.ation throughout the
whole of West Equatorial Africa. Be
tween 187 ! ) and 1881 ho returned to Africa
and established forty stations in the
Congo basin , and .steam communication
between thu Atlantic ocean and Stanley
Falls 1'tOO miles inland. Ho united all
the tribes along the Congo river into a
native confederation under the Hag and
auspices ot the International association.
He assisted us one of the delegates ( ho
being a technical councilor ) at the late
Berlin conference , at the conclusion of
wlueli the explored regions of Africa ( on
which ho hail thrown liiiht by his
travels across the continent in 187l-77 ,
and which ho had subsequently
developed ) were recognized by the
European powers of the independent
state of the Congo. Eight years previ
ously barbarism of the grossest form was
prevalent and the marauding Arabs
raided for slaves. These reirions were
now under the inlluenco of light and civ
ilization , Stanley having planted bovprnl
stations for the purpose. The river
which lie descended in 1877 was now
policed by armed steamers and 700 miles
of navigation had been thrown open to
commerce. At various places there were
missionary settlements and schools in a
fair \\ayof progress. Trading compa
nies , encouraged by the peaceful charac
ter of the country , had established them
selves at Stanley Pool , and thoirstoamers
were exploiting this immense anil fertile
region. There wore now five lines of
steamers running to the Congo
per month , and a telegraphic
cable was being laid along
the west coast of Africa which would
reach the Congo settlement. Arrange
ments were being made for the construc
tion of a railway to pass the cataracts ,
and if successful the Congo basin would ,
on account of its great wealth and
variety of tropical eliimito , become a su
perior Brir/il. From 1871) ) to 1881 , when
Mr. Stanley completed his labors and
brought the concessions granted by over
40 native chiefs , there was not ono shot
Jlretl , mid as thostato had 1.100,000 square
miles , inhabited by over JIO.OOO.OOO people
ple , it had been a grand victory over bar
barism without the guilt of blood that had
too often stained thu triumphs of civiliz
ing enterprises. Mr. Stanley had re
ceived the thanks of the great learned so
cieties of London , Pans , Vienna. Now
York mid elsewhere ; and it would bo a
fitting compliment if the corporation con
ferred upon him the freedom of the oily
for the great and everlasting benefits he
bait conferred.
A sensation was caused at Painted
Woods , Dak. , sixteen miles north of Bis
marck , the other evening by the appear
ance of herd of bufialocs stampeding be
fore the storm. This is the lirst herd of
buffaloes been in that country for over
two years , and they have been driven
over onu hundred miles by the storm.
They weio going in a southwesterly di
rection and orossod the Missjmri river
about ten miles north of Bismarck , It is
estimated that the herd numbered over
throe hundred , and many of thu animals
were exhausted.
James Brown died at Helena , Montana ,
last week from wounds received at the
hands of road agents wlnlo in the employ
of Gilmcr A : Salisbury as an express mes
senger , Ho was a very young man when
he cumo to Alder Gulch , twenty years
ago , and hu long followed the perilous
life of a stage messenger , during which
time his bravery and frequent encounters
gained for him the appellation ot "Shot

longtime.
A llenild representative was with
Herion'H brother wlien the meeting took
plneo , and accompanied them to their
home , whore Herion's father unit mother
received the wumlorir with open arms.
Herion is a bright lad. His father It a
German , his mother French , lie had
American schooling , and learned Italian
In Venice , one of the lirbt half-way houses
in his travels abroad. Ho speaks Knglish ,
French , German and Italian.
lie took the hteamor from New York
for Antwerp , lie knocked about seeking
a homo with relatives at clifl'erent points
abroad , and linally brought tip at Haiv ,
where the youth fcccnred a. position as
head waiter in a big hotel at100 francs a
month.
TIIMD : OF WAITING.
Kight months later he roved to Venice ,
where he held a similar position in the
Hotel do 1'aris. There ho motono Davis ,
nn agnnt of P. T. Itanium , with whom he
wont to Algiers as an interpreter. Their
business was to hunt tin ostriches and
Arabian musicians for the great show
man. Not meeting witn success in tills
line Herion went back to Knropo. where
) io continued his roving and had more
hotel experience. Ho linally drifted
back to Algiers , whore ho took to waiting
again , but , becoming discontented with
the hotel business , throw up a big salary
vhieli had been largely augmented by
the tips his linguistic acquirements
brought him.
Again lie went roving. It did not taKe
him long to spend liis easily carnrd
money , to pawn his watch and the diamonds
mends that had adorned the proud per
son of the inagnlliccnt head waiter , and
BO ho wandered baeU to Marseilles , whore
lie arrived penniless. Application to the
American consul for aid was fruitless as
ho was under ago and an order from his
lather was necessary.
JOINS TIIU 1'ItKXriI AISMV.
On foot ho went to Toulon , whore ho
arrived weary and disheartened. In des
perate strait" , and encouraged by the
blandishments of a French colonel , who
promised him rapid promotion in the
ranks , ho enlisted in the French army for
live years. That was in December , " 183JJ.
It did not take llcrion long to discover
that he had made a mistake. He was
transferred first to Oran anil then to
Hellopolis , where he nuido up his mind
to desert.
Horion wrote homo for money and
began to lay his wires , but before the
funds arrived another transfer oame and
he was sent to join the third battallion of
the foreign legion , stationed at Mnclmra.
Machara is some 1,1 ! JO miles from liellop-
olis. Herion's detachment Buffered con-
.sidnnibly while making the murch from
the heat and the short and poor rations.
SUIGIUK ( ) * TWO bOUIIEIIS.
Two of the soldiers at the end of the
eighth day took oil' their hard shoes ,
placed their rillcs to their heads , pulled
the triggers with their toes and blew
the tops of their heads oft" . Under the
French code militairo , so says Herion ,
when a man straggles behind on the
march lut is promptly beaten with clnbK ,
and if that proves inlTectual ho is tied tea
a horse or camel to make him "shake a
Jcg. "
At Machara the longed for funds
reached the capttiiu's hands , who pro
posed to hand the money over to Herion
nt the rale of a few francs a day on con
dition of good behavior. A compromise
was cllected which brought the money
into the hands of u friendly hotel keeper.
Taken sick , the American boy was sent
to the hospital , and there , making now
plans to escape , ho bribed the sergeant
major to let him oil' the roll call , went to
the hotel , changed his uniform for n
civilian dress and took the train for Sadia ,
some distance from Algiers.
T1I1COWN INTO A WJNOEON.
But Herion wns too well Known and
was arrested on the tram. Burial twenty
feet deen in n dungeon for u week was
followed by transportation to his old reg
iment and a month's imprisonment.
After this life became nnendnrablo
through the abuse anil taunts of the olli-
cnrs and his comrades , lint the durance
vile had been well spent by the boy's
scheming head , and eight days after liberation -
oration ho took the risk of being shot
down by the sentinels , made his escape
and tramped 000 miles In twelve days of
indescribable Mill'onng and brought up at
Brim , whore ho won * on a large wheat
raibing farm and rose to the position of
director
Three months of steady life was wound
up by a dispute with a friend of whom
Herion had made a contidant. This
friend threatened exposure and Horion
then tola his whole story to the proprie
tor , who provided him with n horse and
an Arabian guide. Two days later ho
was back in Algiers , whore moro funds
from homo wore anxiously awaited.
HiTiAVr.l : : > UV A KUIKNl ) .
Another false friend wns made in the
person of a young Parisian. One evening -
ing , listening to the music of the zouave
band , young Horion remarked that it was
not equal to the band of the Foreign Le
gion , and the friend immediately gut him
down as a desert. An attempt at blackmail -
mail followed and then came exposure ,
followed by capture. There was a court
martial this time and Hurlun was hon-
tonce.d to three years in the prison at
Uonora , thirty-two miles from Algiers.
Escape followed quickly after a month of
work In the contract Holds , Two days
later Horion again was arrested , having
been recognized again on the streelsof
by his former captor. Then followed
four months' of conlinnmcut in the dungeons -
goons of Uoncra , whore ho lived on bread
and water. Finally the lad was sent to
Airguon and incarcerated with the 300
deserters who are kuut there basket
making. Then he decided to submit to
the inevitable.
im-LOMACV AT AVOIIK.
Meanwhile the case acquired consider
able interest at homo , and from the in
ternational questions involved and the
high authorities interested became a
matter of more than local attention. Mr ,
Jessie Mutealf , wltlply known as the
beau of large woollen mills in this state ,
took tip the cno In person to make nn
ollortfor the boy s release , and the aid of
Senator Molson W. Alrtricti was called in
to this end. At tno time the matter was
first brought to the attention of the state
department of the late F. Jj. Frclinghuy-
scn was secretary of state , and he re
ferred the matter to the American minister -
tor at Paris , who In turn instructed
the American consul at Algiers to do
all ho could to assist In secur
ing Horion's release ! from imprisonment ,
ins FATIIKR TO Tin : iir.H'i'r. .
These oflbrts on behnlf of securing his
liberation were micbnselotHly frustrated
by the attempts of the young man him-
Felf to escape. Upon the change in the
aiiministration Senator Aldrieh laid the
matter before Secretary Hiuurd , who in
turn instructed Minister McLano to bring
the inlluenco of his position to the assist
ance of the young man. Last June his
father , worn out by the harra sing sus
pense which Mirronmlcd the fate of his
boy , as well a * the pleadings of Ills wife ,
set sail for Puns , bearing letters of inlro-
duction to Minister AtcLano from Sena
tor Aldrieh. Arrived at Paris ho lo"l none
no time in presenting him elf to Mr. Ale-
Lane and was courteously received by
him. The minister furnished him with
letters of introduction to the governor of
the prison permitting him to sou his son.
The letter was signed by the French
minister of war , General lioulanger.
The father's endeavors to secure the
release of his son were at the time una
vailing , but Minister McLean received n
tacit understanding from General Hun-
Iniifnr that ho would pardon Henri upon
the first opportunity. Kllbrts Dually
proved successful , and on the morning of
the-tth of the present mouth Herion's
pardon , dated October 27 , was read to
liiui by the commandant of the prison in
the presence of the assembled French
prisoners , and with it was a release from
till ! term of enlistment.

The occasion was the llrst on the rec

The pardon was secured by Minister
MoLcan from General Boulangcr on the
occasion of the supper tendered to the
president of Franco and his minister-
commemoration of the unveiling of the
statue of liberty in New York. Herion
got homo quicker than he ever got any

AN ARMY CREATED IN A DAY.
The Wonderful l'crfi > rmnnco ol1
Prince Ale.xnndor of Itoiiiuaulii.
Army and Navy Gazette , London :
When Prince Alexander arrived at Pliil-
ippopplis last September , 1885 , expecting
to have the Turks marching iuon him
every day , ho was yery much disap
pointed to find thai the Eastern Itounie-
lian army consisted of twelve weak and
totally un&oldierlikc companies. Luckily
there was a sullicicnt supply of arms in
store , so he at once called out every male
inhabitant between the ages of eighteen
and forty , and soon had a mob of ; r > ,000
men at his disposal. These he divided
into "lots" ot 1,000 eaeli , which were
numbered tlirouchout , giving him thirty-
live battalions. Then he took the few
ollicers ( captains at the highest ) that ho
found at hand , and gave them regiments
and brigades. He next promoted all the
non-commissioned ollicers to be ollicers ,
giving them command of battalions and
companies in due order , and finally he
promoted the whole ot the pri
vates of said twelve companies to
be non-commissioned ollieers , dis
tributing them among the entire force !
Perhaps the most original thing he did ,
however , was the way lie clothed this
army. Ho first requisitioned by telegram
throughout the country all the cloth ho
could lav his hand on , both in shops and
private houses , and had it stored at Phil-
inpopolis , giving "bonds" for the mini-
b'er of yards taken from each individual.
Then ho ordered every tailor in the length
and breadth of Houmclia to be aicsted
and brought to I'hilippopolisl There he
had meanwhile prepared the house of
parliament for their reception , and when
they wore arrived they wore locked up in
it , together with all their cloth , were
given patterns of greatcoats , and set to
work to make them. At first they wore
sulky , and most of them being foreigners
Greeks and nucli like they appealed to
their respective consuls , who remon
strated witli the prince. He sent the
consuls politely to the right-about , say
ing he would inquire into the mutter
when times were more propitious. Mean
while the refractory knights of the nee
dle made a pretense at work , but
turned out such very bad garments
that they were told their lood would be
stopped unless they improved. ( The
honso was guarded and the kitchens es
tablished inside. ) For two days they
starved ! Then they gave in and set to
work properly. On complaining of want
ol air and exercise , they were taken for a
walk through the town under strong es
cort. Again the consuls remonstrated
against the treatment of their compatriot
tailors , and again they received the same
answer as before. At the end of a few
weeks 85,000 men had all good , warm
greatcoats , , t fiheepakiii cap , and a pair
of "ouatiks" ( kind of sandals ) . Kound
their legs they wore bandages , and un
der their coats they were allowed to wear
what they pleased , according to the ther
mometer. Then lie set them to drill night
and day , and when the Servians declared
war liu brigaded these battalions with his
own regulars of the Bulgarian army in
the proportion of one battalion ot the
former to two battalion ? of the latter ,
and found that they fought pretty well.
Vi'o believe this is the lir t record of any
army being manufactured to order.

bo an unprecedented neoident ; but it is
said that the catastrophe on Loch Fvno ,
by which seven pursnp ) lost their fives
recently , had never occurred boforo. It
has been the custom of the bailies of
Glasgow to attend the annual "moiiater
blasts" in the treat Crarao quarries on
that loch , airl tfiis year the custom- was
observed , Seven tons of powder were
fired at onro , dislodging , it is believed ,
some eighty thoysand tons of granite ,
and after the stone had fallen the visitors
btrollcd into the quarries to &ee the re
sult.
sult.Some
Some throe hundred ladies and gentle
men were Mantling about talking , when
one after another was observed to fall
apparently dead , till nearly a hundred
bodies were stretched on the stono. They
were at oneo carried out by the quarrv-
men ; but It was found that seven were
dead , and that thirty more were moro or
loss injured , a tow bovorely. Thu visitors
.had beau asphyxiated by the sulphurous
vapor caused by the blast , the shortest
among thorn feeling it first and most se
verely. Ono witness , who fainted but re
covered , testified that the sensation was
"rather pleasant than painful. " No
blame attaches to any one , the vapor
having been retained longer than usual
by the horseshoe shape of the quarry ,
which stops the breozc on three side ? .
Captain Mitchell , of the bark Anloinc
.Sala , Now York and Havana trade , came
lioinn In May , entirely helplesi with rheu
matism. Ho went to the mountains , but
receiving no benefit , at his wife's request
began to take Hood's Sarsaparilla. lie
immediately began to improve ; in two
months Ids rheumatism was all gone ,
and he sailed in i > ommnnd of hl < < vessel n
