Oae man, a leader of the South Pierre boomers, called "Jesse James," was eat and shot and is now lying in a serious condition. Another man named Wolgemaeh, is also badly hart, and a number of other were sandbagged and hurt in the general melee which went on all night. A pnblio meeting wm held and committees were appointed to organize . the county and city and for various other purposes, including one to confer with the Northwestern Railway regarding the conflicting claims of the road and settlers who are now occupying every foot of the Mile Square. A vigilance committee yesterday went to a widow woman named Evans, who had moved a house on to a lot which, she claimed, had been jumped by a man named MoKue, and ordered her to move the building at once or they would do it for her. no detteu theni and this morning a mob bodily lifted the house and set it into tne street.

Iioaded Stick of Wood, Detroit special: An outrageous' attempt, presumably upon the life of Mrs. Lipmeyer, of this city, occurred reoeatly. As a result her mother is seriously, if not fatally, injured, and her house is badly wrecked. A year ago last October Mrs. Lipmeyer procured a divorce from her husband, and at the same time-was awarded his interest in her present home of which Lipmeyer'a brother owned the remninio" portion. There has been continual strife between Mrs. Lipmeyer and her brother-in-law since then. He has frequently threatened her life and one time violently assaulted her. The other morning some wood was put into a store and a fire started. Some time afterward the neighborhood was startled by an explosion which wan heard for blocks. It came from tLe Upmeyer residence and investigaton showed that the stove was blown to atoms, practically, and Mrs. Lipmeyer's mother seriously injured. The cause of the explosion was immediately investigated. It a as found that a strong odor of powder pervaded the house. Further search disclosed a block of wood which had been bored to a depth of one foot and the condition of the cavity showed only too plainly the presence ot powder. It was & miraculous escape for the whole family, who were in the immediate vioinity of the stove. Mrs. Lipmeyer is at a loss to account for the occurrence exoeptbytbe story of her trouble with) her brother-in-law. A lVottar from Stanley. Henry M. Stanley, in a letter to Col. Thomas W. Knox, of New York, after aoksow lodging the warm greetings which he is receiving from this side ot the Atlantic, says: "Africa is not a land to cause one to forget his friends, but rather emphasises whatever happy impreasionSj and- memories of Europe he may have. She is exacting, but not nakind'. You see, I speak of Africa as a goddess. She intimates very clearly that what she has in store for her voyagers is not to be compared with her richer and more cultivated sister, Europe: therefore I have been enabled to hold my friends very near by heart. Of course the nrst thing to do is to finish the report of our almost completed work, and this will keep me some months in Europe. . Then I shall think of seeking my friends- That will be a rare pleasure." A Negligent Brstkenaatu. 'through the negligence of a brakeman, the accomodation train ou.tha Lake Shore road, from the west, ran into an-opei. switch at BoUevue, Ohio, and crashed into a light locomotive on the siding. Both engines' were demolished, and Fireman Youug, of the light loeomotive, was instantly killed. 'Engineer Phelps, of tho passenger train, .was seven ly, though uot fatally hurt' Fireman Simpson, of the passenger train, bad both legs broken and was hurt internally. A lady pnssonger named Wooster had several ribs broken : but is not fatally -hart. Conductor Hoyt, of the passenger train, suffered a scalp wound and was badly bruised. A ratal CoUialon.

DESXITUTE INDIANS, Ajb Appeof to the American People by the United Stales Indian Agent. A dispatch from Fott Tetton, N. X)., says: Butwoen 800 and 1,000 Indians credited to the Devil's Lake Agency are wholly destitute of clothing and in the last stag of starvation. Unless furnished wiCa food, olothing, and medicine at onoe these Indians will die like dogs. Disease has brought fully one-half of them to tthe verge of the grave and the recent inclement weather enlionoed their sufferings. Indian Agent Oramsie has issued the following appeal for (rid: "I detiiie to appeal to tho American' people for the relief of the Indians of Devil's Lake, who are in a starving condition, and very destitute of clothing. The eiroamstaneee have been fully reported t-j the Interior Department with proper ostitafttes for arttoles of ' food and olothing fron time to (.line since

August 6, 1889, and I have been furnished $80(1, whioh was expended in food and long since issued. I am informed that no further relief can be rendered by the Government until Congress makes an appropriation, but from appearances the Indians will be in their graves before relief by an approErintion can be used. These Indians are supported themselves for years by their own industry without government aid and their present destitution - is through no fault of their own, but is due only to the total failure of their crops, the samo ns in the case of white settlers in the neighborhood, and while the latter are receiving aid from the different counties, tho wards of the general government are starving. With other misfortunes la grippe has added to their sufferings. Their only means of subsistence is from the sale of wood, which has to be carried to market from fourteen to twenty miles and the price obtained for it is So small that very little food can be purchased with the proceeds; besides, the Indians are so very thinly clad that there are not many who can make the journey.. Any contributions of subsistence or clothing will bo thankfully received by the undersigned, and properly distributed." IlOILKU IN A MATH, Sad Uoath or am ImboUo Child at Columbal, Ohio. Columbus speoial: A horrible and most distressing accident by which an invalid and weak-minded girl lost her life, happened at tbo State Institution for Feeble-Minded Youth. Jennie Whitehead, an inmate of the Institution, whose family reside at Hamilton, Butler County, through the carelessness and ignorance of another inmate was literally boiled to death in a bath-tub. The accident occurred - about the noon hour, and the child, for such she waB, lingered id the greatest agony until next morning, when death came to her relief. The details of the terrible affair can best be told in the language of Dr. Doren, the Superintendent of the Institution,

The doctor said Jennie Whitehead IheJLnstitution in March, lHSo. ATthe ifime oY her delfAi "Out mi V , years of age, but her sta&ure and mental development were those ot an iufrnt ot about 18 months. She could not walk alone, and required the snme care ae would a babe of the age mentioned. "Saturday at the noon hour," explained the doctor, "after Jennie bad had her dinner, it was found that she required bathing. Her attendant was temporarily away, and Jennie was being oared for by one of the larger and most intelligent inmates, who has assisted the attendant in the care of her charges, and especially of Jennie, for years. Id direct violation of the rules of the institution which prohibits any inmate from drawing water or bathing patients, this girl, whom, however, I would have trusted in my own household, prooeeded to bathe Jennie. The little one made no complaint at the time indicating that the - water was too warm, but after the operation was over it was discovered that she had been badly aoaldodvI was nastily summoned, nnd found that tbo scalds were on the feet, the back part of the limbs, and the hips. The burns, which were superficial, Going confined to the skin, were dressed, and Jenuie was soon seated on her little chair,' apparently suffering no pain, and F laying contentedly witn ner mocxs. immediately wrote her brother concerning the accident, expressing -tbo hope and belief that the injuries were not serious. About 7 o'clock, however, Jennie was seized with convulsions and hod five spasms, which greatly reduced her puny strencth. She nlterward slept till about 10.-30, but was wolteiul duriug the balance of the night, and next morning about 7 o'clock she was again seised with the spasms and died. MOKalONS CKUSHEDw The Gentiles Carry the Salt tk City Election and -Indulge In a Demonstration Without Praondeot, A Salt Lake City speoial, dated the 11th ingt, says: The municipal elec tion passed off quietly. The city was crowded with special police, detectives, and deputy United States marshals for the purpose of preventing illegal voting, which each party claimed that the other would resort to. It was feared that an attempt to challenge and arrest voters would result in a riot and bloodshed, but this anticipation was not realized, and though the excitement was so intense that half of the stores wore closed, order prevailed. Bauds paraded the streets, and the thoroughfares were jammed with excited oitizens who realized that upon the result of the battle depended the future of tbe Mormon church as a political organization. The voting passed off quietly, and only six arrests were made, and theBe were accompanied by no demonstration from either aide. Snow began falling early in the morning and continued until noon, when the sun came out, melting the snow and turning the streets into rivers and slush. This did not deter the voters, many of whom waded tbe mud to the polling places, while hundreds of carriages ran between the precinct headquarters and every part of the city conveying voters to and from the polls. When the polls closed at 6 o'olock, the liberal leaders posted a bulletin claiming 1,200 majority. The news spread rapidly, and tbe gentiles became wild with joy. They litorally took possession of the city, the Mor-. mons retiring to their homes. Flags were run np in all directions. Cannons boomed, bon fires were lighted at every corner, and hundreds of men in line paraded thu streets with drums and torches, yelling like mad. No such scenes were ever witnessed before in Utah. The Mormons admit their def out, bnt say it was brought about by the most glaringly illegal methods, and that the result will be reversed by the courts. Tbey do uot think the majority shown by the returns wilt exoeod 400. SENTENCED. ATwo Years' Term In I'rlsoii Given to the Voung Due d'Orleaa. Paris speoial: The Duo d'Orleans, son of the Count and Countess of Paris, who came to Paris last week with the avowed intention of enlisting in the French army, and who was then arrested on tbe charge of violation of tho law exiling from France all pretenders to the French throne, was again arraigned before the Tribunal ot tho Seine Friday. He was adjudged guilty of violating the law and was sentenced to two years' imprisonment. The court-room was crowded with speotatore who had gathered to watch the proceedings against the young Duke, When tbe prisoner was arraigned tbe crowd broke out with loud cries for the army, the Duke .of Orleans and the Republic. They became so demonstrative that tbe eendsrnies were compelled to elear the room. Before judgment was announced the Duke addressed the Couit in his own behalf. He said: "I came to France to serve as a common soldier. I have nothina to do with noli tics, which only concern's my father, whose obedient son ana laitntui servant l am. i anew that by entering France I rendered myself liable to the law, but that knowledge did not stop mo. I love my country and trish to servo her. I am guilty ot no srime." After sentence had been pronounced a thousand persons invaded the itdvooate's room. Many' of them were monarchists, and shouted: "Long live' the Duke of urieaue. Their snouts were met with counter cries of "Down with tea Duke of Orleans," "Long live. the Bepublie," The guards were-powe. lsss to restore order. After routing their feejings here lor a time, the crowd

shoutod: "To the Statue. Let us crown ieury IV." With one accord they rushed to the side of tbe statue where there were cries of "Long live the King" ftpni the Duke's sympathizers, and counter cries of "Long live the Republic," from his opponents. Tbe poUae made twenty-fire arrests. A second qka&ab;oka. A Tremendous Sash of Bottlers to Soeare Claims on the Sioux Reservation. . A speoial from Ohamberlin, B. D. dated the 11th inst., says: The report ot cannon this afternoon startled the people camped here awaiting tbe opportunity to get up on tbe Sioux Reservation. It wag a grand sight, viewed from the hills and bluffs on the east side of .the river to see the teams with their great lumber loads dashing across the river ou a dead run, up the bluff on American island, and finally lost to sight in the heavy timber which covers the island. A novel sight was the movina of a targe building, under which had been jrtee4. heavy timbers and wheels, polled across tbo river by galloping horses. It took but a few minutes for sections on the valuable ground to be literally covered with claimants, and it will take a score of lawyers to solve the problem as to Who are the rightful owners. FAST IN THIS ICE. A Tassel Reported to Ho la Peril and Surrounded by a, Field of Ice. The steamer Ameterd tm, fifteen days out from Amsterdam has arrived at Now York and reports that on tbo 5th inst. ate passed through, an ic3 field 165 miles long. Wbije six miles south of the ioe in latitude 43.15, longitude 48.14, tbe bark Oliver Emery, from Dublin for St. Johns, N. B., was spoken on signal. The bark was found in bad shape. She was fast in the ice with her bows considerably torn and all the men ehort on rations. The captain was willing to take off tbe crew of tbe Emery for their ship had been fast in a gigantic ice-field for thirty-six hosrs, besides having hard

work to get aleng at nil, but all save one, nn inexperienced seaman, refused Wfie" serttbe vessel. They asked toff some provisions which wer sent tojihom, and her eaptain.TOs sju;Vo'?)bould carry her Sail ili'iR. port. Frightful DiavoveryWitchita (Kan.) special: J. Hempstead, a cattlo man from Purcoll, reports a horrible discovery ot mutilated human remains is a ravine about forty miles south of PurceU, in the Arbvckie Hills. As he and two cow-boys were seeking some strayed horses in the foot hills tbey were attracted by a wagon in the distance and riding up they found near by four human bodies in an advaneed stage of decomposition. And from which tbe flesh had been torn, evidently by wolves, in several places. Tbe bodies were those of an old man and woman perhaps fifty or sixty years old, a youug woman and a child about ten years old. Examination showed that murder had been committed. The man had tbreo bullet wounds in his body, the older woman a shot through the temple, the younger one through the back of the head, and,theohild having been shot in tbe mouth. Tho Explosion at Un Quite a sensation has been created at Lima, ovor the testimony of J. B. Sbowaiter, a deaf mute employed at the Standard Oil Refinery, gi veil af the inquest being hold by the Coroner. Showalter said that the morning before the explosion, whioh killed one man and injured nve otneri, ne was at wore in the stillhouse, when a strange man pS rose tied mm irom bemud ana tappea im on the shoulder. He looked around and the stranger motioned for him to. follow hfln. He did so, and tbe fellow gave him a note, telling him everything was fixed, and that when we pave him the tip to look out. Showalter was frightened ana did not work the next dav when the explosion took nlace. The strange tuaii he bad never seen bofore and the supposition is that the explosion Wgs tbe work of some one as revenge against the company. The matter is being fully investigated. Mysterious Packsga In Ingall's MnU. The other day Senator .Ingalls' mail contained a small pink wrapped box four inches long, two inches wide and a little more than an inch thick. On being opened the box was found to contain one of the Union Metallic Cartridge Company's "Star" shot-gun paper cartridges with' the following inscription in bliek ink: "Election pills for old duff, or for Iugalls. from Jackson, Miss. Come to see us, old nut-galls." The senator was ci tue opinion mat is was a plain buckshot cartridge and a reporter subsequently ascertained this to be a fact by prying open a shell revealing nine large buckshot and a charge of powder. Even this, it was thought, was not a particularly pleasant present, and tbe joke may turn out to be a sorry one for the perpetrator, as it is a violation of tbe postal laws to send explosives through the mails. Born at the Opera. While the heavy opera of "Gotterdammering" was being rendered in tbe Metropolitan Opera House, New York, there was a sudden commotion in the third row of chairs from the orchestra. Gentlemen hurriedly vacated their seats, all except one, who evidently was a physician. Ladies in the fourth and secor.U rows, directly behind and in front of the seats referod to, stood upon tbo seats, formiug a sort of screen. Within a few minutes in the center of that group a strong, healthy woman garo birth to an infant. Fortunately, the curtain fell about this time aud in the general movement of the audience always occurring between the acts the removal of the lady and the lusty little infant was noticed by but very few. Sealded to Death! . A flue collapsed in one of tbe boilers of tbe Standard Lumber Company's mill at Dubuque. Iowa. There are ten boilers in the concern, but only four were tumiug at a pressure of eighty pounds, just enough to furnish power for the plaining machines. Tbo engineer, Joseph Reed, was fatally scalded and died soon after the accident. The fireman, Richard. Rigler, was blown 250 foet. lauding on the Ice in the river. He was scalded and sustained other injuries that will prove fatal. The damage to the building is slight. The dead engineer was s. oandldate for tho position of Steamboat' Inspector, vacated by the recent death of Cnpt. John Seott. Tbe. boilers are at steul and showed abundance of water. Terrible AcoUlont. A disastrous accident occurred ou the Wisconsin Central road, near Mellcn Junction, eighteen miles south of Ashland, Wis, Particulars arc hard to obtain, but it is saia that six or eight persons are iuiured how serious cannot be learned at this writing. The train wrecked was the Ashland nnd Bessemer express. The tram was running at the usual rate of speed, wheu. without warn ing, the express and two day .coaches were thrown from the track. They bumped on the ties for an instant aud theu turned completely over. The cause of tuo derailment was the spreading of the rails. Half a dozen pRHBengera had limbs broken ana were oiuerwige in jured, bat none, it is said, fatally. -Windy Hill foster' Kllliit' rfWindy" Bill Foster, a noted obarooter of Steuben County, Ind., was run , over 4 Wiled by tbe oars at Auburn.

Qua Worka Explode. St. Paul speoial: There was an explosion in the condenser room ot the St. Paul Gas Works of this oity. There are two brarehes of the plant, one for the manufacture of coal gas and the other for water gas. The accident occurred in tbe coal gas department. Joseph MoMahon was instantly killed; Sam Desmond died after being removed. Martin Curran and Miko MoMahon were wounded about the head and will probably die. Chris Kennedy, an old man about 60 years of age, is badly wounded aud may not recover from the shook. J as. Simmons was badly hurt. The damage is estimated at $40,000 with no insurance.
