THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO.. ATLANTA. GA. j

E.N.STEBBINS WAS THEREA Wisconsin Man Who Helped Hm-y

John Wilkes Booth.

Dr. George L. Porter in a paper read re-cently before the Medico-Legal society inNew York, states that previous accounts ofthe disposition of the body of John WilkesBooth, after Booth's death, following theassassination of President Lincoln, havebeen most inaccurate. Says Dr. Porter:

I was in medical charge in Washingtonafter the murder of Lincoln an-d had un-equaled opportunities for observation. Thebody was taken to Washington, identified bymany persons and afterwards taken in arowboat to the Washington arsenal and inthe' dead of night, in the presence of themilitary store keeper, four enlisted men andmyself, the only commissioned officer, washidden in a place bo secret that never tothis day has it been corerctly described. Wewere requested by Secretary Stanton to keepsilent and no man during these thirty-fiveyears has yet told. I believe the body wasfinally given to the family under agreementnever to mark by mound or monument whereit should be placed.

It may be interesting to the friends ofE. X. Stebbins, barrel stock manufacturerat Barron, Wis., to know that he was thestorekeeper referred to in the foregoing.Mr. Stebbins, while very reluctant to talkof the matter, has to his acquaintancesmade a statement similar to that of Dr.Porter. Mr. Stebbins is also understoodto have stated that the body was placedunder the floor of a secluded part of thearsenal.

SIGNS OF DISCORDRailroad and Warehouse Commis-

sioners Can't Get Together.

MILLS HAS PUT HIS FOOT DOWN

Verity the (luilcr uf 'IVo Member*,for Secretary bat the

Third

To all outward appearances the threemembers of the railroad and warehousecommission are dwelling together in abeautiful spirit of harmony and good will.Little stories are leaking out, however,which indicate that the dove of peace hasbeen absent from the office of the com-mission for over a month, and that whileMessrs. Staples, Mills and Miller shakehands and speak cordially when theymeet, they are hardly ever able to gettogether except in the exchange of socialamenities.

There is a deadlock in the commissionover the important position of secretary.

Two of the members favor W. E. Verityof Minneapolis. The other, Judge Mills,is in favor of anybody but Verity. Twovotes out of three do not usually mean adeadlock, but Judge Mills has so far pre-vented a selection. He declares thatVerity is personally distasteful to him,and he positively protests against hiselection. The other two members hesi-tate to affront their colleague, but haveso far refused to go back on Verity. Therethe matter stands, and may stand forweeks to come. Meanwhile SecretaryTeisberg holds on, and is an active candi-date for re-election.

The other candidate is A. C. Clausenof St. Paul, the former chief inspector.Clausen is backed by the Reese-Warner-Schiffman element, which is not used tobeing turned down. Neither is Clausen,and he is making a hard fight againstVerity. The' indications are, however,that these men are held responsible forthe personal fight against Verity, andthat "personal reasons" will preventClausen or Teisberg from getting thevotes of either Milleror Staples. If Millspersists in his personal protest againstVerity, there will be an indefinitelock or a dark horse will be chosen.

The reason of Judge Mills' oppositionto Verity is said to be that Verity op-posed Mills' nomination last summer.Mills refuses to forgive and forget thepast, and will keep Verity from the placejust as long as he can.

Railroad interests are said to favor theselection of Clausen. In thin connectionthe story is told that a friend of Verity'swent to a prominent railroad attorneyand asked him to cease his oppositionand indorse Verity's candidacy. The rail-road man replied very tersely: "Tell yourfriend Verity he can't have it."

The selection of a secretary is not theonly rock that the members of the com-mission have struck. It is said that theyare divided on nearly every proposition,Staples and Mills representing the ex-tremes*, and Miller casting the decidingvote. In the matter of appointments thecommission has moved very slowly, andgrumblings, not loud, but deep, are heardwherever two or three office-seekers aregathered together.

State May Take Advantage of Boom

' Some misunderstanding has arisen overthe bill introduced by Mr. Washburn ofHennepin, providing for another clearing-out sale of lands bid in by the state atthe forfeited tax sale last year. The billhas been introduced in the senate by Sen-ator Thompson, and has the approval ofAuditor Dunn and Attorney General Doug-las. Itprovides that until May 21, anyoneshowing title can bid in lands at 50 percent of the original tax. On that date theyare to be put up for sale at the variouscounty seats, to the highest bidder, nosale to be made unless 50 per cent of thetax accrued is realized. All remainingunsold after this date can be sold by thecounty commissioners at whatever figurethey can realize, the sale being subject tothe approval of the county auditor and thestate auditor. Sixty days are given theowner for redemption.

The object of the bill is to disDose oflarge tracts of land while the presentland boom is on. The bill would covermany outlying lots in ihe large cities,which could never be sold for 50 per centof the taxes, accrued prior to 1895, to saynothing of the subsequent five years.

They See Xo Use in IncreaHlng Mu-nicipal Judges' Salaries.

There is a great uproar among Minne-apolis attorneys against the bill increasingthe salary of judges of the municipal court

from $3,000 to $3,600, which received theO.K. of the Hennepin delegation the otherday. There were only four Votes againstthe increase in the judges' salaries, butit is claimed that this does not reflect thesentiment of the delegation, as there wasnot a full attendance, and some who votedfor it have since bene convinced that theincrease is not warranted. It Is possiblethat an attempt will be made to reconsiderthe action and leave the judges' salarieswhere they are now. The bill would thengive Clerk Allen $700 more, and his eec-ond deputy $200 more per year, with noother increase in salaries.

MONEY FOR THE EXPO

Hearing on the Bill to Appropriate$50,000 for liuitulo'K Show.

A hearing on the bill appropriating $50,---000 for the Pan-American exposition atBuffalo was given yesterday by the sen-ate committee on finance and the housecommittee on appropriations. H. P. Ruck-er, | special commissioner, presented theplans of the exposition, and said that Ken-tucky was the only state in the union thathad declined to take part. He believedMinnesota would get a better return fromits outlay at Buffalo than from the world'sfair at Chicago.

H. P. Hall, who has visited the exposi-tion grounds, urged the appropriation. Hesaid it was only a question of expending asmall amount and getting back severalmillions in trade. Professor Shaw of theagricultural school,-said it would pay thestate to use $1,000 for corn exhibit, as ithe idea prevailed in the east that corncould not be raised in Minnesota. ' E. D.Jackson of Minneapolis and T. L. Schur-meier and A. G. Briggs of St. Paul, spokein favor of the bill. The committee willtake action next week and will probablyreport the bill to pass.

WOLXD HAVE IT WIDENED

State Senators Asked to Huve Reno-Preston Branch Changed.

Senators Thompson and Roverud havebeen in Chicago to impress on the officialsof the Milwaukee road the desirability andnecessity of widening the Reno-Prestonbranch to a standard gauge road. Thisbranch extends from Reno, on the riverdivision of the Milwaukee road, throughCaledonia and other thriving places toPreston, the seat of Fillmore county. Itis about fifty miles long and serves a. pros-perous section.

Thief Inspector May Be Dropped.The bill introduced by Representative

Kiley yesterday, abolishing the office of chiefgrain inspector in the grain department hasattracted considerable notice. The bill pro-vides that the members of the railroad andwarehouse commission shall hereafter per-form the duties of the office, thus saving anannual salary of $2,500 a year. Mr. Rileysays the chief inspector is a useless orna-ment, and that the actual work is all doneby deputy inspectors. The compilation oftheir reports can be done in the office of tnecommission without extra clerical force

The Jepsou bridge bill is at last ready tobe submitted to the legislature. The Hen-nepin deles^tion yesterday recommended itto pass, with an amendment as to theamount. It is raised from $195,000 to $215 -000. Of this, $140,000 is for the bridge atThirty-second avenue N and Twenty-fifthavenue NE, and the other $75,000 is to beused in building piles and abutments underthe Washington avenue bridge, to be usedlor a permanent structure as soon as theadditional funds can be raised.

\u0084.% SEA ANIMALS /They Cannot . lave in the Water*; of. ,< the GreatTSalt Lake.

% 'if i New York Sun.<Sometime ago the United States fisheries

commission thought it would be a goodidea to stock Great Salt Lake with use-ful sea animals if it was found that theycould live in its waters. There was con-siderable doubt that the project was prac-ticable, for it was believed that the exces-sive salinity of the lake might, be unfa-vorable for sea life. 1However that mightbe, it was thought to be worth while, atany rate, to investigate the matter.

So H. F. Moore was sent jto jUtah tosee if the lake would make a good homefor sea animals. ;If his report were fa-vorable there was , certainly an opportuni-ty for an important immigration of thedenizens of the ocean to these inlandwaters. The lake is about 100 miles longwith an average .width, of 27 miles, and solarge a body of water would give plentyof leeway for a good many thousands ofanimals.

Mr. Moore's report has been submittedto the commission; and it is so unfavor-able, to the proposed project t^at no at-tempt -will be made to introduce sea lifeinto this supersalted water. Mr.. Moorefound that in those parts of the lakewhich received the main supplies of freshwater and were consequently less salinethan the other waters, some sea crabsand insects may live and some of thelower forms of vegetation flourish: butthe proportion of salt in the larger partof the lake is too great to be favorablefor any form of sea life. The lake notonly receives fresh water from the moun-tain streams, but numerous salt or brack-ish springs also contribute' an unusuallylarge quantity of mineral matter; so thatwhile the specific gravity of ocean water,on an average, is only 1,025, that of GreatSalt Lake is 1.168. The lake waters areunfavorable for sea life, not because oftheir quality, which does not differ Inchemical constituents from the waters ofthe ocean, but because of the enormousamount of salt held in solution.

Commercial enterprises are now takingfrom the lake about 42,000 tons of saltevery year. It might be thought thatthis enormous withdrawal of salt - fromthe lake would, before a very great while,reduce the waters to the specific gravityof sea water. When this point is reachedconditions may be attained that will prob-ably be favorable for sea life in Utah'sgreat lake. , Mr. Moore, however, doesnot encourage the idea that this trans-formation can be reached for a greatmany generations to come. -\u25a0';?'\u25a0«'

It is estimated that the amount of saltadded to the lake every year by thewaters which pour into it is 16,000 tons; inother words, half the quantity of salt thatis now withdrawn from the lake is madegood to the lake by the fresh supplies re-ceived. Computations based on the pres- jent specific gravity of the- lake lead to |the conclusion that it now contains about j400,000,000 tons of salt,-which is far less ithan the estimates of the salt wealth ofthe lake that- have come from somesources. According to these figures, andat the present rate of extracting; salt forcommercial uses from the lake waters,14.000 years will elapse before the specificgravity of the water has been reduced tothat of the ocean. So the,prospect of in-troducing sea animals . is, at present;scarcely worth considering. The peopleof Utah must continue to import theiroysters '\u25a0 from the seaboard.

ITS PATH NOT EASYReapportionment Plan Will Be Ac-

tively Opposed.

HENNEPIN IS A STORM CENTER

Trouble U reiving in the Stouthernlli-»trlet.s nntl Amon;; the

KUUy Men.

There are breakers ahead for the planof congressional reapportionment fatheredby the subcommittee. Smooth sailingseemed assured a few days ago; the com-bination had counted noses and felt sureof success. Recent developments, how-ever, indicate that there will be a greatbattle on the floor of the house, and thatihe forces will be evenly divided.

The center of disaffection, outside ofHennepin, is in the second district, wherea considerable element favors the Larsonplan, cutting off Blue Earth county andMeOleary from the second district, andattaching them to the third.' The newdevelopment is the accession of severalfirst district members who declare thatthey will stand by Messrs. Somerville,Larson et al. to get their plan through.

The Hand of Taivue.v.As far as the make-up of the first dis-

trict is concerned, there is no differencebetween the two plans. The reason givenfor this attitude of first district membersrelates to Mr. Tawney. The Winona manis known to have no abiding affection forthe Mankato schoolmaster, and it is be-lieved that he has thrown his influencewith the first district members againstthe committee plan. To put Blue Earthin the third district would be to end Mc-Cleary's career in congress. Outside ofXicullet and Blue Erath, every county inthe district would belong to the old third,and Heatwole's organization would enablehim to carry off the nomination. Theelimination of McCleary would make Taw-

\u25a0 ney the dominant figure in the Minnesotadelegation, and no one accuses Tawneyof lacking ambition. The second districtmalcontents claim a majority of their owndelegation, arid practically solid supportfrom the first.

Argument of the I)is*<> liters.Their contention is that the state ought

not to be divided in the interests of anyman, and that the division they proposeis better from the standpoint of railroadfacilities and mutual interests. "BlueEarth county is the biggest county in thedistrict," said a Somerville man yesterday."Blue Earth has always assumed a dicta-torial air and hat. bossed and bullyraggedthe second district at every opportunity.We want to get rid of Blue Earth."

These members are alive to the mainchance, and they have made overtures tothe Hennepin delegation, looking to ajunction of fores. Messrs. Somerville andLarson waited on the Hennepin delegationyesterday, and had an extended conferencein- executive sssion. No agreement wasmade, it is understood, but the two powersare ready to join forces if neither can winalone. Hennepin county has no interestin the southern Minnesota wrangle,noither has southern Minnesota in theredistricting of the northen counties.Their i^lans do not conflict in the least.The Larson plan changes the second, thirdand seventh districts. The concessionasked by Hennepin would only affect thefourth, fifth, sixth and eighth. There isnothing to prevent a junction of forces atthe proper time.

Added to this opposition, there will bescattering votes from northern countiesagainst the committee plan. Anoka doesnot want to be tied up to Duluth anylonger. Chisago objects to being the tailto the St. Paul kite. Then the friends ofFrank Eddy of Glenwood are suspicious.The new district in which JEddy is put in-cludes fourteen counties. Seven of themare old seventh district counties, one isnow in the third, and the other six arenow in the second. Half the districtwould be absolutely new territory forEddy. One of the seventh district coun-ties is Swift, the home of Senator E. T.Young, who could take his own countyaway from Eddy, and would have an evenchance with him in the new territory. Soopposition is looked for from the Eddymen.

A Plan to Pcrnse.

The Hennepin del^ation will have sev-eral plans to present next week, fromwhich the joint committee will be invitedto take its choice. Representative J. A.Peterson has drawn one which leaves thefirst, second, third, fourth and seventhdistricts the same. The East Side is setoff from the fifth district, leaving thefifth with 185,407 population and a major-ity for Fletcher in 1898 of 5,730. The43,000 East Side population is added to thesixth, which is otherwise composed of thecounties of Anoka, Wright, Sherburne,Benton, Steams, Meeker. Todd and Doug-las. This gives a population of 203,000.and a republican majority in 1898 of 1,206.The eighth district is deprived of Anoka,and the counties of Cass. Hubbard, Mor-rison, Crow iWng and Wadena are addedfrom the sixth, giving a population of205,647, and a republican majority of 995.

What will be the attitude of the demo-crats, when the question comes into thehouse is problematical. The great ma-jority would probably be lined up for themost equable plan, though the close dis-tricts mapped out by the committee arequite to the liking of some members ofthe minority, who see visions of congres-sional jobs dancing before their eyes.

Charges of Personal Interest.

It is freely charged that personal inter-ests have entered into the framing of thecommittee's plan. This was intimatedat the session of the joint committeeWednesday and will no doubt be broughtup again. Senators J. D. Jones. Buckmanand Brower, and Representative Ferris,all able men and good congressional ma-terial, are declared to be responsible forthe carving of the new sixth district.They are working together now, but itwould be a merry fight with the four going

after one nomination. Xone of thesegentlemen views kindly the propositionto take in a part of Hennepin. Thatwould give them an overplus of congres-sional material.

"SOHRAB ANID RUSTUM"! Dr. Clurk Tell* of the Beauties of

the Poem.

Dr. S. H. Clark of the Chicago univer-sity explained the beauties and meaningsof Arnold's poem, "Sohrab and Rustum,"in the Central high school this morning.Dr. Clark regards this poem as the great-est narrative poem of any language forits high thought, martial trend, sublimesimplicity, perfection of form and ad-herence to a central idea. It realizedArnold's own idea of a great poem, thegreatest idea enshrined in the greatest

! language. "All art is amenable to law,"said Dr. Clark, "it must conform to cer-tain great principles. Anything that is

! beautiful has a right to exist. It does notprimarily exist to preach, but it is thespontaneous expression of the joy in liv-ing. Much that is beautiful in a poem Isnot apreciated by one who is unconsciousof the beauty of form. Rythym is morethan jingle, it is the sign of emotional ele-ment in poetry. English poetry cannot bescanned as the classics are. This poemof 'Sohrab and Rustum' is simple in dic-tion, in conception and execution. Itssimiles are the similes of everyday, primi-tive people. The poem is an epic for thepeople and to them simplicity is a virtue.The dramatic background is to enhance thedramatic intensity. It Is full of the ori-ental idea of fatalism and of so-calledlocal color."

Dr. Clark gave an etxended readingfrom the poem i,n a sympathetic mannerthat showed the marvelous beauty of thedescriptions and the deep tragedy of thestory.

ALONG SLEEP-WALKA Student Who Makes Twenty-five

Miles Without Knowing It.

KENNETH HUGHES' ADVENTURE

Went to Bed at Lake Forest Acad-emy and Awoke in His Fath-

er's Barn.

Chicago, Feb. 22.—Sound asleep with iout conscious volition and utterly un-aware of his performance until after itwas over. Kenneth Hughes, a student of

the Lake Forest academy, made his wayat night from his room at the academy to

his country home near Loon Lake,twenty-five miles distant.

Whether he rode or walked, by whatroute he went or what were his adven-tures along the way, he has not the faint-est glimmer of knowledge,, according tohis story.

The most the sleep-walker knows isthat he went to bed as usual at LakeForest and was awakened the next morn-ing in his father's barn, twenty-five milesdistant. The duration of the somnolentstate was from shortly after 8 o"clock inthe evening until 6 o'clock in the morn-ing.

It was at the latter hour that the boy'sfather, who is a farmer, went to his barnto feed his stock, and found the the youngman propped up in the family buggy, stillsound asleep. He opened his eyes in as-tonishment and tried to recall some inci-dent of the night, but it was all a per-fect blank to him.

He counted his money in his pocketsand found that he had 15 cents less thanhe had the night before. He decided,'thereupon, that he must have ridden onan electric car from Lake Forest toWaukegan. He has no recollection, how-ever, of boarding the car, paying his fare,of of alighting at the end of the line.

The soreness of his muscles seemed toconfirm the supposition that he walkedthe twenty miles from Waukegan to thefarm.

Professor Hibbler and the Lake Forestacademy faculty are greatly puzzled overthe case.
