THE WAYCROS3 HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 2r, 1S93. AFTEK THE TRUSTS. CMwrtod Art ion Taken bj the Minnn-ito Crain Grower** Association. St. Paul, Oct. 20.—'The Minnesota Orain Growers’ association has issnetf a call for all farmers in Minnesota, North and Sonth Dakota to assemble in Crook- aton, this state, Qct. 25, to take action against the grain buyers* combine azuj. all other corporations that have hitnerto fixed values on grains. An attempt will be made to secure legislation, both na tional and state, to prevent options and pit selling. * The call says that it is now manifest that there is a large shortage in the wheat crop this season. John S. Fins bury’s estimate of 88,000,000 bushels of wheat, made early in the season, for Minnessota, North and South Dakota, may be nearly realized, UHP'lke more numerous and popular estimates of 73,- 000,000 and 100,000,000 bushels are ab surdly large. The call is couched in language very bitter against options and the like, and says it is now high time that grain- growers the world over should be able to place their own prices on their pro ducts, subject to fluctuations caused by supply and demand, the same as other producers.

It was an interesting sight and an affecting one to -the veterans present when the two generals mounted the some platform. Each spoke an hour and a quarter, ex- GovemorLee opening and closing. No unfriendly cuts were made, hut the speoches were on party lines. General Rosser made a strong tirade on O’ter- rail and Cleveland, characterizingthe % >fmie candidate, andeen- r for convening congress just what legislation should occur.' General Rosser said that O’Ferrall would be defeated, and his friend, Fitz Lee, would not be made United States senator, because ho was too pure for the politicians.

Teccmseh, Mich., 0(?t. 20.—Mrs. Alice Church, a comely wid6w 83 years of age, and* Bessie Church, her daughter, 18 years of age, were arrested in the act of committing burglary. They were dress ed in men’s clothes. The two women moved in the best so ciety, wero members of the church, act ive in charitable work and eminently respectable as to conduct. The women confess their guilt, state that they have committed a score of burglaries, and will gladly accept any punishment that is meted out to them. It was at first believed that they were insane, bnt this theory has been aban doned. Mrs. Church and her daughter have lived here several years. Both dressed well, and the girl is not only onusoally bright, bnt quite handsome. They num bered among their friends nearly all the best people of Tecnmseh. They lived modestly and stated that their income came from the life insurance of the late Mr. Church. Mre. Church was popular with the beaux of the town, bnrft was observed that she froze them with dig nity when they became too demonstra tive. Early in the summer tfci home of a prominent family was entered one even ing while the family were at church and some jewelry and wearing apparel were taken. No trace of the burglars could be discovered. Aboi^t the time the inci dent was dropping* out of the public mind another house was entered. Some money and jewelry wa3 taken from this house, and, as before, the family were absent the evening of tho occurrence. The station was watched and all the roads out of town guarded, but no burg lars were arrested. The town police were' puzzled. The burglaries followed each other in quick succession daring Jnly and Au gust. The whole town was excited. Strangers were eyed with suspicion and., citizens lay in ambush night after night without accomplishing anything. All the houses were entered in the same manner, either through the back door or a window opening on a porch. Occasionally groceries and food were taken. This led to the belief that the burglars were tramps. There was a cessation of night work during September, bnt early this month the burglaries were resumed. The ^houses were entered usually during the Cincinnati, Oct. 20.—Professor Henry Preserved Smith will not again appear in the courts of the Presbyterian church asking for relief on the charge of being a heretic.

Last week the home of the lai? Judge :acey, occupied by Mrs. Stacey and her raghter, was broken into and robbed of xkjs valued at $300. A reward was of- "ered, and a score of amateur detectives set to work, but beyond arresting a few tramps, who were clearly innocent,noth ing came of it. Relatives then decided to take turns watching tiie house. About 1 o’clock in the morning one of the watchers observ ed what he supposed were two men ap proaching the house. He got a shotgun and waited. The burglars lifted a win dow and boldly entered. .The man with the shotgun decided to wait until they entered the diningroom, when he could get a better light on the targets. The two figures entered the diningroom, and as the watcher aimed the gun the light fell on the face of the Widow Church. He could hardly believe his eyes. It was Mrs. Church and her daughter dress ed up in men’s clothes. He lowered the gun, approached and arrested both. They screamed, but re covered their composure, mid in the presence*of Mrs. Stacey confessed to all the burglaries. The women had a preliminary exami nation, at which the whole town was present. They were held for trial. It is said that they stole to keep from starving, and that a false pride prevent ed them from telling their friends of their condition. FLEECED BY SHARPERS.
