Ho was born at Detroit, Midi., Feb. 18, 1811, una received a classical educa-tion. When S3 years of age lie became a partnef in the American F u r company, and went to the mouth o f the Minnesota river.

In 1810, while delegate to congress from the ter-ritory of Wisconsin, ho secured the pas-sage of an act creating the territory of Minnesota. From the latter he went to Washington as its first delegate, serving two terms. lie helped to frame its state constitution in 18o7, and became gover-nor after Minnesota's admission to the Union. Hut he gained his greatest fame by the suppression of the Sioux rising of 18113. Within five weeks after the outbreak he gathered and equipped a force of volun-- ! teers and fought the battle of Wood Lake, which broke the power o? the sav-ages. For this distinguished service President Lincoln commissioned him a brigadier general. When mustered out, in 1806, he held the rank of brevet major general. During the period of his mili-tary activity he held the Indians in com-plete check and secured the safety of the settlers in the new state. After the war he filled various positions of public trust, and was also prominent in educational and commercial circles. Ho died at St. Puul.

The important work at Yuma is to be considered at the meeting, aud Chief Engineer Hood's report on what changes are necessary will then be presented and acted upon. Although there is no intention of alter-ing the route, some very important work will probably be undertaken. At present the line is now daily ship-ping on an average seventy car loads of oranages out of the southern part of California. Why the Wi.eril le Went. It is said the chief object of Jay Gould's trip to St. Louis is to look after the proposed combination of south-western and souther lines. The pro-posed scheme is the formation of a company with sufficient capital to make a reasonable capitalization of the whole amounting to sune 40.000 miles of rail-road extending across the continent with their main steins running through the south and southwest, and many feeders reaching out in every direction through the vast territory made tribu-tary to the main lines. The plan is now well atlvaueed in the preparatory stage and has been endorsed by Mr. Could. He is anxious to be posted on every detail and is now coming out for a final look over the ground. I'pnn his return to New York it is probable that the plan will mature at an eaily date. llepew on l.riKlo CronliiRi. Chauncey M. Depew has come out squarely against surface tracks and grade railroad crossings for steam transportation companies in large cities. In an interview with a New York cor-respondent Mr. Depew said: "When the grade crossings ro you raise the percentage of safety to life fully 'J5 per cent. Tracks must be depressed in corporate limits, nnd this will do away with the restrictions now placed by the municipalities on the Bpeed of railroad trains." ' Terminal of the (1. N. R. The expectation is that the terminal shops and yards will be at Smith's Cove, and iu all probability they will be the main ones for the Sound.

WITH A POCKET KNIFE , A Wild Eyed Miner From Cottonwood Plunges a Blade in the Back of a Section Boss. HELD FQR ATTEMPTED MURDER The Sanguinary Affair that Broke Up a Might's Debauch in the Golden f Lion Saloon. Hilly Elton was slabbed in the back by William Frizes in an embroglio in the Golden Lion saloon, about 10 o'clock last night and was taken to the police station where Dr. Meachain gave him his attention. Seen bv a reporter, Elton stated that he bad entered the saloon w hen irizes, a wild eved miner of Cottonwood, dealt a fellow'debauehee a blow that foiled him to the lloor. Elton says the entire crowd was about to join Frizes in the assault when he interposed and urged that it was "not the square thing" for a regiment to assail a solitary individual. The opinion was evidently relished, for the speaker secured the en-tire attention of the audience, Frizes leading the enthusiastic charge and throttling the victim with ono hand while with the other he buried a knife blade in the back. A stream of blood gushed from the ghastly furrow and drenched the room while tho spec-tators advanced on the murderous nt andsuccezded in disarming him. The wounded man had taken to his heels and was speeding up the street , followed bv a companion when Ollicers Pool and 'Birkuer overtook them and subsequently arrested Frizes, who was identified at the police station as Elton's assailant. Frizes was then staggering under the effects of liquor aud was slated oa a charge of assault with in-tent to commit murder. His victim was suffering intense j pain while the blood was still I pouring in a volume from the - v wound that was an inch or more in depth. While it was being dressed he fainted and whon removed to his lodg-ings was very weak. He is employed as a section boss on the Sau Pete V alley Railway and bears the reputation, ac-cording to his friends, of a quiet, inof-fensive feilow. His murderous assail-ant is a brutal character when under tho innuenee of drink and will, in all probability, be held to the action of the grand jury. CAPTUKEDJilS WIFE.

T- hev had not .hided the cunning eye of tho pur-me- r however and Isham reported at once to tho agency. Detective Franks was soon in the saddle aud on the track of the elopers, for whom he carried a warrant for adultery. At Springville ho overtook the party, and came in . with them last night.' They were at once removed to the penitentiary for safe keeping, and this morning were brought betore the husband and father, l'lio old man, broken hearted and depleted by his long search, was willing to extend amnesty, and after i conference in which all took part a reconciliation was affected, the father, his wife and daughter going in one di-rection while the betrayer sought an-other. Mrs. Isham is approaching 40 years of age, is of striking appearance and says it was her young and giddy affec-tions that yielded to the tempter whose name is George Erickson and who at 20 years of age is in the full blush of vigorous maturity. Her Husband says there is no excuse for a grandmothers yielding to such frailties and although grossly injured and hu-miliated he is more devoted to her and the welfare of his daughter than to bis pride. Cansht Slim Mapping. Deputy United Slates Marshals Dyer nnd Cleveland arrested another fugi tive Dolygamist at 1J;H0 o'clock last night and 'running him over to the pen he was siated as P.ohert Parker, who for three years has ballled the eflorts of the sleuths. Tho prisoner was indicted by the grand jury in the second district some three years ago, who returned two true bills aeainst him, one charging poly- - gamy and the other with having made false returns as postmaster at Wash-ington, an unpretentious town in Wash-- ' ingion county, over whoso correspon-dence he presided. Parker who fixes his age a 71 years was arrested but made his escape from Deputy Marshal Armstrong and disappeared as if he had perished in the hissing depths of a whirlpool. He was finally located in England and twice crossed the billowy pond ' be- - fore he was finally entrapped. Embold- - ened by tho treacherous hope that the authorities had abandoned his case, he returned to Zion and sought retirement in a dwelling at the corner of First West and Sixth South streets. Tho sunshine and the enthusiasm of confer- - ence week was too much for him and coining from his moorings he entered the tabernacle. It was while issuing with the multitude from the immense drum that, he was identified and word at once despatched to headquarters. Deputies Dyer and Cleveland took tho assignment and going to the nest last night at 9:30 descended on it. Parker escaped through the back door but was ovortaken and captured and taken be-fore Commissioner Norrell this morn-ing was held in tho sura of $1000. "Why did you not, as ati honest man, do it?"

The feature in Judge Anderson's court is the case of the People against W. J.

It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon before a jury was obtained and testimony begun, O. W. Powers and W. II. Dickson appearing for the defendant, and Assistant t'niied States Attorney Critchlow for the prosecu-tion. For the prosecution. Judge L. D. Hope described tho location of the room in which the offense is said to have been committed. Captain (Ireenman testified to having been named as a judge, but did not serve. Harry M.Calluin was chairman or the central committee and testified to having recommended a set of judges to the commission.

Hi) judged that twenty or thirty ballots of a spurious brood were chocked into the urn, but when pressed closely declined to swear positively that there were more than six. All this time Judge Dickson was taking tho witness through a tierce or. deal, and it was with manifest relief that he descended from the stand, after which court adjourned uutil lOo'cloik this niorniug. Today"! Senelon. The troop of witnesses who have fig-ured from the iuception of the case tiled mechanically into the court cham-ber at 10 o'clock this morning and tho trial was resumed. P. F. Thornburg was tho first witness and testified that he had voted at the last election; tendered the ballot to Allen; defendant took his envelope in his leR hand and held another envelopo in his right; placed tho ono he held in his right in the ballot box and dropped the other so that witness was unable to determine what had become of it. Cross-examine- witness said ho did not know what tho accused had done with the ballot handed in by hiui;others voted immediately before and after him. Don't know whether the ballot held in his right hand was 0110 that had been handed him by the voter who had preceded witness, turned away and moved about two feet before his sus-picion was aroused and then went back: don't know why I failed to turn aud see what was done with my ballot. n Isn't it a fact that your suspicion was not aroused until the bal-lots were counted ami von ascertained that your candidate had been defeated? The witness No. sir; it is not. Mr. Dickson You are a member of the People's party? "Don t know whether I am or not.' "You were at that time?" "Y'cs, sir. Intended to vote its ticket at that time."

Cross examined Witness testified that he was a candidate upon that elec- - tion and examined a number of tickets, j Judge Dickson at this juncture re- - j sorted to a little legal finesse, and folded i two tickets to correspond. These were submitted to tho witness who identified the character of the ballot through the envelop. "Y'oti have guessed it right," piped the attorney to the risible of the spec-tators. Mr. Murdock was recalled and testi-fied that it was not customary to have envelopes near the poles. Mr. Young was recalled, whereupon the defense submitted four tickets, en-cased in the official euvelope and asked him to distinguish between them. The Witness (leveling his index lin-ger) That's a people's ticket. Judge Powers Correct you are. The Witness (raising his voice above the laughter) Aud that's a liberal ticket. Judge Powers '(manifestly chagrined) Correct again! Mr. Young was dropped. Mr. Thornburg was recalled and stated that the accused had held up wit-ness' ballot between his eyes and the window and in that way could tell what the nature of the ticket was. It. D.

"Ailen told me," continued the witness, "that he changed seventy-liv- e votes that day. He also said he wondered what Prig Hampton would sav if he knew he had cast a liberal ballot.

There was a very interesting article In last Sunday's Herald by Kate Upson Clark entitled "Light on Love's Art." The only objection to it is that it was necessary for a man to stand on his head to be able to read It. It is calcu-lated to make one wonder if "Kate obi girt" writes her effusion on love in such an undignified attitude. There was a big time among the K. of P. of Salt Lake last night, the lodges holding a union meeting in Castle hall.

This structure owes its existence to M. Vallot, a member of the French Alpine club. When ho broached his project experienced mount-aineers declared it impossible to erect a building at tho top of tho mountain, be-cause no laborers could work in the rare-fied atmosphere. M. Vallot, however, concluded to put the plan to a practical test. So ho had a house built at After its completion it was taken down aud each part carefully marked. , One hundred gnides volunteered to carry tho material to tho chosen site. THE OnsF.KVATORY AND BF.FUOE. Thev made the journey without accident, ami with considerable toil and suffering succeeded in the struct-ure as an entirety. Then the house was braced with masonry, fitted tvith lightning rods, and other details com-pleted. There are two apartments. Ono is devoted to scientific uses and t he other is for the accommodation of travelers. The public room contain, nine beds and supplies of provisions, illuminating oil and fuel, and the other apartment is filled with instruments necessary for the taking of meteorological and othM- - ob-servations.

Being nloiio in the house, they heard the burg-lar alarm go off with a loud report. One of them called their servant, and receiv-ing no response, sho started down to see what was the matter, but was startled to see a savage looking man climbing in at one of tho windows, revolver in hand. Although much excited she still sum-moned courage enough to order him out. Ho answered, "Don't be afraid. Miss; I'm a detective." She thought this was j a ruse and ran to the front door. Hera ' sho was suddenly seiz d around the waist by a man stationed at the door, who exclaimed, "You are my prisoner.' At this juncture the first burglar came down stairs and an explanation followed. rtAILWAY TIES. It is said that there is now bnt one g railway organization tho National Yardmasters' association.

They will be fortunate if they can keep their earnings up t the stand- - ard of last year, but they will undoubt-edly show a falling off. The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-neers are asking the Ohio legislature to pass a law requiring that the state rail-road commissioner shall have knowledge of mechanics and shall be a railroad man of twenty years' experience.

Three of his sheep v"ro missed during the snow storm tho night before Christmas and were not found again for twelve days, when a farm hand discov-ered them" in a hollow, where the snow had drifted to a depth of twenty feet, A hole was shoveled into the drift, and the sheep were found there safe and Bound, after their twelve days' fast, One of the strangest things or tho whole af-fair was that they had not a particle or wool on their backs. Their hunger had driven them to eat every roll of wool on each other's backs. They bad also eaten such a quantity of snow, which, together with the heat from their bodies, made a veritable chamber or cave. Thn cavo was twenty feet in circumference by five feet high. At last reports the animals were all doing well, though they seem to bo things of great interest to the other hlieep, which recognize their fellows, but are unable, apparently, to account for their entire absence of wool.

Idlcnl Prevarication. "You can't imagine what a prevari-cator I have become since I have been in the hospital," said a pretty girl, a nurea at one of the local hospitals. "The doc-tors tell me I must deceive the patients sometimes, aud I have to obey their or-ders whether I want to or not. But my conscience doesn't hurt me especially. I am asked .many times a day by sick people here questions that I must not an-swer truthfully. For instance, one will inquire: 'How do I look' 'Is my face much wasted? 'Am I very feverish? 'Am I very sick?' Of course I have tc say all I can to encourage the patient, telling him sometimes that he is doing very well or looks much improved when he is in fact very near death. I think the recording angel will blot out with a tear these marks against me." Ex-change. Tonight'! Meeting.

Huberts, aud J.Grceuwoo', Auiorl-ca-i'orlu' " Paper Horseshoes. It seems not unlikely that a change is imminent in tho method of shoenig horses for military work. The German papers aro devoting a great deal of at-tention to the discussion which is now going on in tho military world as to tho advisability of substituting compressed paper for iron in horseshoes for tho German cavalry and artillery. After many experiments under all manner of conditions it has been found that the shoe which apjiears to be most worthy of adoption is made tip of sheets of parch-ment pa tier cemented together with a siMt-ia- l cement composed of turpentine, Sp.ish white, lac aud boiled linseed oil. The separate pieces aro stamed out, cemented and pressed together in a hydraulic prosd. When dry the shoe thus formed is rasja-- into the exact form and size required. 2icw York Commercial Advertiser, j Kotiea to Stockholder.
