Gloriously Acquitted.

The trial of Frank Raridan, charged with stealing a silver watch from Willis Crouch was heard before Judge Harney last Wednesday. The evidence showed that one afternoon last September Willis and Frank and a couple of tough female characters of the town were en gaged in drinking beer in Annabel's saloon near the Monon depot. Willis, tender boy that he is, soon became intoxicated. When he awoke he found himself shy of his watch and 3 paltry dollars. Tl watch was found on Ran dan but the S3 had melted into beer. Raridan claimed that Crouch had pawed the watch to him for 82.50 and as for the S3, why, the festive Willis hadn't had that much money at one time in several years. At this point Raridan borrowed a chew of tobacco from one of the jurors and a few minutes later he was gloriously acquitted.

ACCOUNTS IN QUESTION.

Management of a Large FropertJ In California In Controversy. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 12.—The affairs of the Stearns Rancho Corporation, which at one time owned 130,000 acres in California and is still one of the Heaviest landed corporations on the Pacific slope, have been under investigation by a committee of three disinterested business men, viz: Barclay Henley, George B. l'olhemus and E. \Y. Met?raw, with reference to the conduct of the manager, Col. R. J. Northam, who is a member of the governor's staff and one of the bestknown public men in the state. This committee has about completed its work, and in a few days will make majority and minority reports to the stockholders. The majority report by Messrs. Henley and Polhemus will state that 8100,000 of the income of the ranch has been illegally diverted. It is not charged, however, that there has been any embezzlement. In his minority report Mr. McUraw will defend Col. Northam. The late Moses Hopkins, who was president rf the company, it is claimea, gave Col. Northam oral authorization to dispose of property of the company. So far as learned no legal steps have been taken toward a settlement of the questions involved.

ST. PAUL SENSATIONAL SUIT.

Frank B. Bars Sued for Alienating: the Affections of Mrs* Jennie Crane* ST. PAUL, Minn., Oct. 12.—Suit was brought yesterday afternoon against Frank B. Bass, prominent in business and social circles,for 810,000 for alienating the affection of Mrs. Jennio Crane. The lady is pretty, 23 years old and the wife of Eugene Crane, superintendent of the 500-acre farm of Mr. Bass at Stacy, Minn. Frank B. Bass is a very wealthy man, who lives with his wife and children in one of the finest residences on Summit avenue. He would not talk, but his attorney said the case was one of blackmail, that proof would be produced that Crane said last spring: "Jennie, work the old man up, and I vrill soon have his farm." On the other hand Crane'B attorneys will put in evidence letters and telegrams of a very damaging character addressed by Bass to Mrs. Crane. The latter has gone to the home of her mother at Hammond.

LEADER FOR 1896.

Politician! Claim Indlnnapolls Election Opened Harrison's Boom. WASHINGTON, Oct 12.—News of the republican victory in the city election at Indianapolis Tuesday was read with much iuterest in Washington this morning. The democratic politicians from Indiana, particularly Congressman Bvnum, have been saying that the real issue involved at Indianapolis was whether ex-President Harrison should be renominated in 1S96. Whether this issue entered very materially into the electiou at Indianapolis is not known, but the fact that the democrats raised it here in Washington and that the Ex-President's friends accepted it caused a national interest to attach to the result. Ex-President Harrison's friends were in high feather this morning and there was considerable talk among leading republicans about the availability of "Harrison for l&uG."

EXPLOSIVE POWDERS.

How They Are Thawed Out With Com* paratlve Safety. The nature of explosive powders produced from nitro-glycerine mixtures, as set forth lately by one of the most extensive manufacturing companies devoted to that specialty in California, is evidently such as admits of absolute safety when certain simple rules are observed. What is familiarly known as Hercules powder will, it appears, freeze at forty-two degrees Fahrenheit, and must be thawed out before using if frozen, not by roasting it before a hot fire, nor in any vessel over hot iron plates, nor by leaning it up against hot brickwork, steam boilers or putting it into the oven or in hot water to thaw.

The best way to thaw the powder is found to be to place sufficient cartridges for the day on a shelf in the top of a warm room, then put them in a tin or copper can, and set that inside of another vessel containing boiling water place a cover over the whole and the powder is soon thawed. It should not be heated to more than 212 degrees, for soon after that it throws off noxious fumes by decomposition. It should be stored in a dry, cool and well-ventilated warehouse, and, when so stored, it will remain in good condition in any climate indefinitely. When set on fire in any ordinary way It burns away by slow combustion, producing more noxious gases than when explosion ensues.

A GIRL IN A BEAR'S DEN

A Couple of Strange Creaturei Found in the Jungles of India. A highly respectable Indian gentleman, a member of the Bombay Anthropological society—Mr. Sarat Chandra Mitra—has come forward With an apparently well authenticated story of a girl who has been discovered in Jalpaiguri in the den of a bear. The young person's habits were decidedly bearish, for she tried to bite and Bcratch those who came near her, went down "on all fours" for locomotion and "growled at meals." The orphanage of the New Dispensation church, in Calcutta, could make nothing of the ferocious foundling, who has consequently been removed to Bas Aram, a refuge founded and supported by Brahmo gentlemen in that city.

Nor is this all. A Bhagal Zemindar has captured in the jungle a wild boy, whose only approach to speech is the utterance of chattering sounds like those ol a monkey. Colonel Sleeman and the lie v. Mr. Lewis, of the Secundra church mission, have vouched for similar stories. Mr. Mitra is of the opinion that when, as sometimes happens, an infant is abandoned in the bush, there is nothing absurd in the idea that it might be adopted by a female wild animal that had lost her young.

LINES IN THE HAND.

Reading the Clinrnoter, the Future, and the rnat by Them. Square or spatulated fingers, in the science of palmistry, denote the philosophical and practical temperament. Taper fingers signify an artistic temperament, and very pointed digits area sure sign of the dreamy, psychical nature. Much is learned by the general quality and configuration of the hand and palm as well as by the lines which cross the latter. The life line running around the base of the thumb denotes long or short life, good or ill health, according as it is long or short, clear and unbroken or otherwise. The "heart line" running across the palm nearest the base of the fingers, signifies the quality of the possessor's emotional nature, also the kind of love she will g^ve and receive. This will be enduring or temporary according to whether the line be long and clear, forked or crossed and chained. Below this is the head line, which indicates the mental and moral qualities and achievements and deficiencies. The line of fate runs perpendicularly across the middle of the palm and is a very important factor in the happiness or unhappiness of its owner. It should be clear and narrow, unchained and uncrossed by the fine wrinkles which score so many palms, and it should never come to an end on the line of the heart, since this signifies disappointment in love. A cross on the "Mount of Mercury," which is just at the base of the fore or index finger, is an unfailing sign of a happy, marriage.

A Relentless Creditor.

A creditor seldom goes so far as to Bcize a coffin about to be carried to the grave. But this happened in the open street in Berlin a few days ago, and created considerable excitement and great indignation. A cabinetmaker's wagon had just stopped in front of a house near the Alexander platz in the German capital with a coffin for the wife of a looomotive engineer who had died. As the coffin was about to be borne into the house an official of the court appeared, placed his seal upon the oaken box, and ordered it transferred to the Berlin pawn office. The official had acted on behalf of a relentless creditor. The engineer pleaded in vain for the coffin.. The record failed to say whether he succeeded in getting another.

Saving a Grave.

An unmarried woman possessed of considerable wealth who died last week in a town in Pennsylvania, was buried in a grave that was dug nineteen years ago. Her father was buried In it originally, and after two years his body was exhumed and placed in a vault. It was a principal of the family never to spend money uselessly, and the daughter, realizing that she would need a grave sometime, decided that filling up the grave would be a waste of good Jnoney, and ordered that It be kept open for her. When the not-too-long-delayed day came (she was then 81 years of age), the grave was found to be a half dozen inches too short It was lengthened and the interment was made.

One reason why the Russian czaro* vitch can never marry tho Princess Victoria of Wales, with whose name the gossips have connected his, is that they are first cousins, and the marriage of first cousins is strictly prohibited by the canons of the Greek church.
