Surprising Tgnoranco Developed by a Trial in a Jmlio3 Court. WITNESSES WHO DON'T ' KNOW AN OATH , They Told All Manner of Stories but I'lnnlly the Doi'cnclnnt U'ai Fined Tor Whipping the PIllllltlfT. Constable Mcholson yesterday morning appeared In Justice Hammer's court , having In his custody John Mulraney , a lank , tall old man of ( So. The arrest was inndo Upon a wnirnnt Issued from the Justice's court nnd charged Mulvaney with a serious crime In relation to his fourteen-year-old daughter , named lilancho. A crowd of accusers and witnesses soon collected nr.d the court room was tilled. The case was set for Immediate hearing but wus subsequently continued until afternoon. When the hour for hearing arrived the girl was not on hand , nnd n story was started that sno had been placed In seclusion by her father. This proved to bo without foundation , Iho girl ut the time being In the ofllco of Attorney Chambers with n lot of other witnesses In an assault case In which Mulvanoy was the prosecuting witness nnd n follow named Castle defendant. When this discovery wits made Iho former case was con- llnued until Wednesday nnd the tlmo of the court taken up with the assault. The hearing of this case Indicated that that the whole tioublo was a neighborhood row , and developed the fact that some of the pi tncipal parties nro people of but little re sponsibility. The girl , Blanche , tcslilled In behalf of her father. She appears lo have but little intelligence , unable lo read or vvrlio or compiehend Iho simplest questions asked her. Her brother , n vacant-eyed fellow six feet tall and with scraggy whlttlsh beard on his fact to Inches long , loitllled that ho did not know how old ho was , but thought ho was about fourteen. Only ono of the witnesses , n bright little girl named Hoffmann knew what an outh man. Her testimony led the justice lo bellcvo Castle had ocen guility of the offense of going Into Mulvaney's house on Monday night and knocking him down , and Castle was lined fo and costs , liy the tiino the wit nesses nil put. their crosses on the justice's docket in receipt of their fees Iho costs will amount to a small fortune. The other case has been turned over County Attorney Organ , but it Is scarcely propable that anything will come of It. It Will b a . ' trance. Sale. Tliink of it !

I2tiropc'HVhcnt Shortage. "I went to Uuda Pcsth , which Is the larg est milling center In the world after Minne apolis , then to Vienna , All authorities I consulted were unanimous lu estimating the crops of Aust re-Hungary HO per cent less this year than last. In Germany the shortage Is less and probably will not exceed 1ft per cent. With respect to Franco I have not yet been able to obtain re liable ofllolal information , but I understand it will bo safe to say that this country will have to Import about half Us consumption. I don't think the short crops In Europe will result In any great core In the United Stales , but I believe It will create u tendency among fanners to hold their crops. To my mind It will not bo possi ble to organize such n general plan of cam paign as vvns suggested In the wheat circu lars sent out by fnrmeis alliance people , but the ofTcct of those circulars will undoubtedly be to teach growers not to pile their wheat on the market us thov have hitherto dune. ' Is Ihcro any chance oT u bread famine ! Well , crops in Iho Unlled States Were never so largo us this vcar , especially In wheat , and I think we can take care of the rest of the world. Of course , the rest of the world will have to pay what wo may choose to ask for our grain. " Senator Washburne , accompanied by his wlfo and daughter , is staving at the Hotel Maurice.

IIICAVK KKA.VCIS MUKIMIY. He Preferred Death to Kruaklng His Pit-duo. A heroic moral character IH moro rare than nro men who will do valoious and dangerous ihliifs Involving only physical rcstills says Hie Helena Independent. Men who will ilsk their own lives to save that of a stranger nro not uncommon , but men who , in sere distress , can resist the temptation to do an Inconsistent act , purely for the Influ ence It may possibly tiavo on some ono else nro not found on every corner. Undermost trying circumstances , iccently , Mr. Francis Murnliv bravely vindicated his tcachinirs of twenty-one jears , and to the lustre or his great tame added pioof of the depth of uls .sincerity in the work of his life. If by tasting liquor ho should cause one of these , his brethton , to drink , ho would not do it , though tosavo his own life. Mr. Murphy and wife were in thu Northern PueihY sleeper that was iinccn-inonlouslv dumped into the i airing Yellowstoao near Rosebud , in the darkness of tl > o night and the storm not many days since. The story of that thrilling accident has been told in pnrt. Butitis not generally understood that water rose In that Ill-fated cur to the chins of the passengers , and several of them had resigned themselves to God , aud with prn ) or on their lips were waiting the ( trowing of thewateis over their heads. The work of rescue was slow and Iho fortitude of the prisoners in the car was remarkable. Mr. Murphy was ono ( lie last to leave the prison and suffered moro physical injury than any one else. His no.o was broken , blood was streaming from his mouth , and an injury on the right kno--capcaused him frieat pain. Diciicl.cd with the waters ot the stream and the floods from the sky , chilled with the sweeping winds ot the storm and tortured with unccitaintv us to his wifd's condition , Mr. Murphy was in a sad plltrht indeed. No shelter was nigli and the piospcct of dry clothing or a mouthful of anything nourishing was remote several miles. All the other passengers were eagoily sipping brandy , whisky , und such other stimulants as travel lers are wont to carry when expecting to bo thrown into a river at midnight. Christian men and women were there , whom Mr. Mutphv had met on this trip. They urged upon him the stimulants , lu friendly spirit , nnd sincerely believing a swallow 'or two necessary to prevent sickness that might oe mortal. Courteously but resolutely Mr. Murphy declined. No ostentatious procla mation of his work was made ; no evidence of 'I um holier than thou. ' The conviction c.imo to bitn that ono swallow would dis credit htm in the o.ves of the world , nnd though the world mitrht never know it his conscience would tell him any by day nnd night by night that h < > has disciedited lum- soif. He would die , If need be , but die as he had lived foi years , free from the knowl edge of liquor. Happily Mr. Murphy Is now rapidly re covering from the injuries of the accident. The thousands upon thousands who have -signed and kept tl'o ' pledge of total absti nence upon Mr. Murt.hj's loving invitation will le.iru of his triumph ever tomntalion with gladness , and bo stienglhcnod' to like wise resist His effectiveness will bo in creased for the future , and tlio lesson of his viUory will bo lold and read of all men with profit.

U. , J\Ug III. | Colonel Polk of North Carolina , who Is just now posing us the or.u-Jo of the farmers' alliance , has laid out a programme which in cludes the defeat of John Sherman in Ohio and the plans of bis party towards capturing thu Unl'cd States senate mid the general tcarinir un of Iho republican nartv. Concerning Iho Ohio campaign , Colonel Polk said today : "In the legislative dis tricts the alliance will support candidates pledged to vote against Sherman. The vet ing stronglh of Iho actual organlzaliun is 10,000. Our members , however , are doing missionary work among llio farmers gen erally und thousands of voters not connected with the alliance itself will bo rallied against Sherman. If you would look ever the cor respondence from Ohio you would bo con vinced that it is now an impossibility for him to succeed himself. " "Is the tight being made on Melvlnloy IllliO' " "It is not. Wo are now cleaning out the United Stales senate. Governorships are not valuable to us at the present tlmo. It would have a good moral effect to elect state olllccrs mcielv as an evidence of thu strength of the organisation , but our priirary object is to secure the balance of power In the legisla tures , which enact the laws and elect United States senators. Prob ably many alliance members will support thu peoplo's ticket in Ohio , but there is no movement to have them do so. Consequently quently the alliance is notlightingMcKinloy , but do not infer from that that I think ho will bo elected.1 ' "Can Senator Wilson of Iowa be returned i" "Wo are not lighting much on results from Iowa , " replied Colonel Polk. "Tho or- cani/atlon in that state is weak , though Iho popular assumption is that wo arc making n great tight then , ' . That Idea Is a mistiken ono. Tlio most we expect to get out of the contest In Iowa is to determine what -strength the movement is developing there. No scalps are c\peeled. In the northwest , however , the voters seem to be ' more ready to break away Jrom the old p'artics than in ether sec tions of the country. " In regard to Nobrask-i Colonel Polk thinks the oivani/.itiou strong enough to carry everything but ho will not say whether or not the scalp of Sena'or Paddock Is desired , but it is hinted ilial the alllanco leaders arc favorable to the senators return.
