GRAND RAPIDS - MINNESOTA, PITH OF THE NEWS EVENTS UF THE PAST WEEK IN A CONDENSED FORM, It is time to head off some of these| A General Resume of the Most Im- head-on collisions. It has finally been settled that Jay Gould had but one wife. Jay’s mind ran in other channels. People may, after all, have some choice between falling into a vat or into the hands of a Chicago coroner and the undertakers. Mr. Croker having pulled himself down and out, Tammany may be said to have foozled its first drive for the mayorality bunker in the New York threesome, There are now at sea, bound from Baltimore to European ports, forty- eight vessels laden with full or part cargoes of grain, each one carrying 50,- 000 to 100,000 bushels. This is said to be the largest number of vessels ever bound from an American port at one time, Rainmakers in this country have been apparently inactive this season, but a drouth would have revived inter- est in their plans and theories. In Europe their experiments have at- tracted more attention. Germany of- f a reward of $2,500 to anyone who can produce a downpour of rain at moderate expense. It is suggested that inventors in this line should discover how to stop excessive rains, with re- sulting floods Japan has dug up and resuscitated an old law which declares the departure from the country of any citizen with- out permission of the government a criminal offense and punishable by heavy penalties. This is lovely, old, autocratic tyranny a la Russe, and is a nice indication of the degree of pub- lic liberty striven for by this little toadstool nation which has heard some- where the pretty fiction that if a baby fungus grows with all its might it can pry up a paving stone. Lynching is murder, neither more or less, and the State of Texas has set other states, both north and south, a geod example by making it so upon the statute books. The same law also pro- vides that lynchers when put on trial shall be tried out of the county where the crime was committed, and that sheriffs who fail to protect prisoners frem lynching parties shall be removed from office. The southern states are taking the lead in giving practical ef- fect to the disapprobation which all law-abiding citizens feel for lynch law. A good old mother received a dread- ful shock the other day through a tel- gram from her boy, who is in New York city enjoying himself. As en- joying one’s self sometimes costs money it is not strange that the young man sent the following somewhat slangy dispatch for more funds to his father, “Had my leg pulled. Broke. Send me $50 by wire.” When the moth- er read this appeal she was plunged in grief. “My poor boy!” she moaned. “He must have been in one of those cable car things. Send him $100, fath- and tell him to get the best doctor in the city.” A stranger ted police headquar- ters at Nantasket Beach the other evening and asked Chief Mitch- ell what it would cost to commit an assault. The chief told him it would cost about $5 or $10. The man left the station and Chief Mitchell detailed two policemen to follow and watch him. He went to the Auditorum, and as Con- ductor C. H. Thompson of the Miles Standish Band left the band stand the stranger struck him a fierce blow in the face. The policemen arrested the man and locked him up. At the sta- tion he said he was Dr. Edward M. Bates of Cincinnati, and said he came al! the way from Cincinnati to chastise \/Thompson for insulting a friend of his, a woman singer, who sang here last summer. He paid a $10 fine. No punishment that can be inflicted by civilized society upon such creatures as the slayer of Canovas will bear out the principle, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.” The life of the ssassin does not compensate for the life of the man slain. The question of adequate punishment is a puzzling one, but it seems clearly that there is one method of procedure that would have a deterrent effect. If the assassin could know beforehand that he would have 20 opportunity of enjoying the world- wide notoriety that seems to be so much prized by persons of his class during the brief period between the commission of the crime and its ex- piation, the incentive would be less. Perhaps there would be fewer assassi- nations of men in high places if the only announcement permitted were hat the guilty person, name not men- tioned, had been caught, tried and sentenced to death, and that the sen- ence would be duly executed. Miss Elizabeth Dowling of Seymour, nd., the oldest old maid in the United 3tates, has passed her hundredth birth- lay and “never had a serious notion to marry.” All of which goes to show hat in the pioneer days of hoosierdom here was no David E. Bates loafing round. Sam Jones lectured in Browning, ‘o., last week. Among other things \e said that beauty in woman was the ost dangerous thing in the world. t,” he added, “no woman in this ydience is in any danger.” portant News of the Week From All Parts of the Globe, Boiled Down and Arranged in Con- venient Form for Rapid Perusal By Busy People.

New Orleans, Sept. 28. — Yesterday wus the quietest of the week in New Orleans, and the fever situation, in spite of the appearance of a large number of cases, may be said to have shown much improvement. Fifteen cases were recorded on the books of the beard of health, but there was no death, and there have been no deaths since Friday. The authorities re- ceived reports during the evéning from rearly every patient that is now under treatment and these were all to the effect that the cases are doing well and that no patient is in any immedi- ate danger of dissolution. Some forty cases were reported as being rapidly cen the mend and a number of them will be discharged during the week. One of the most dangerous ses that have appeared w: discharged. It was that on Madison street in the neighborhood of the French market, wkere the conditions were considered to be such as to warrant fear that the disease would spread.

Madrid, Sept. 28. — The arrival of United States Minister Woodford from San Sebastian has made a sen- saticn. The programme of the United States has been ascertained. This does not contemplate a -leclara- tion of war if Spain rejects mediation, but, according to report, in “ tious” proclamation to the world of disapproval of the Cuban regime by suspending diplomatic ielations with Spain by withdrawing the United States minister. Gen. Woodford has declined to be interviewed on the sub- ject further than to say that his con- ference with the duke of Tetuan, the foreign minister, was of the most sat- isfactory character. The unexpected bitterness of the press and of public opinion has painfully impressed him, but he hopes this will soon be allayed, as he believes his mission favorable to Spanisk interests and cannot compre- hend that Spain could reject media- tion designed to end an impoverishing war. He has not named a time at which the war must be terminated, but he hopes, as a result of his tend- ers that it will be ended quickly. He believes the war is inflicting incalcula- ble Icss upon the United States and that it is impossible to prevent the or- ganization of filibu: ring expeditions.

Luetgert’s Servant on the Witness Stand. Chicago, Sept. 28. — The strongest witness for the defense who has yet appeared in the Luetgert trial was Mary Siemmering, the domestic in the Luetgert household, for love of wkom it is charged by the state that the prisoner murdered his wife. ‘There was no mistaking the feeling of the girl toward Luetgert. She was there to do him all the good in her power, and she stood by him stoutly. She had made statements before the grand jury and to the state’s attorney be- fore the trial began, and when her as- sertions on the stand differed from the statements she is said to have made at that time, she had not the slightest hesitation in repudiating anything that she might have said when not under oath. The state’s attorney sub- jected her to a rigid cross-examination, and succeeded at times in confusing her, but she was game and full of nerve to the last. She contradicted herself several times, but was quick to catch herself, and the last statements that she made in any part of her testi- mony was always in favor of the pvis- oner. She denied in the most positive manner that she had been a disturb- ing element between Luetgert and his wife, and said that neither by night or by day, alone or in company, had she ever visited Luetgert in his factory or elsewkere in an improper manner. She insisted that the prisoner had always been good to his wife, and that, in her opizion, the latter was out of her mind, and had been so for some time prior to her disappearance. Her cross- examination was not concluded. No We-rlike Intentions. Washington, Sept. 28. — The recent transfer of some seventy-five salicrs from New York to San Francisco, the purchase of some shells and a reported conference of navy militia officers with Acting Secretary Roosevelt have given rise to a suspicion of hostie in- tentions on the part of the navy de- partment which, it may be stated on the best authority, are not at all well founded. As a matter of fact, there has been no conference of naval mili- tia otlicers at the navy department or elsewhere. Scrofula ‘ “Our daughter broke out with scrofula - sores all over her face and head.
