ST. Charles, (IlI.) Thursday
= April 1913 o'clock, P, m.
Messrs. .Editors:--I hasten 10 inform
you that our town of St. Charles has
been under the supreme reign of mob
since 10 A. NJ. The cause Of this out
break Of the sovereignS fthe land, was
theopen and reckless manner in which
DR. Richards and his students have sup
piled themselves for the last few years
with subjects for dissection. a compa-
nv OF MEN, father, brothers and husband
al a young lady from De Kalb county,
vic had recently died, came here on
The rsday last alleging that she had
bcenS resirrected, procured a search
warrant and withSherifI Yates, search
ed the dissectng room and premises of
DIR. Richards not finding the body, yet
finding ENOUGH TO satisfy the relations,
that she had been there, and under the
hand of the operator, such as her hair
and other evidences of identity. The
relatives returned home; we heard no
more from them, until this morning
about 10 0 clock, when double teams,
loaded with meh, and men ON horse
back, were. seen coming into our town
e'ery direction, until some 300 men
arrived with a full equipment, from a
rifle to revolver They marched 10

Strength as they proceeded, until for
lnldabIe force was congrcgated. can
not give all the details, but the result
was, that after some negotiation as to
giving up the body to her friends, two
rife shots were fired from Richard 5
Louise one by him on opening the front
door and firing into the crowd, the 9th
or shot from the upper window by his
son; and what is remarkable, neither
shot took effect save in the coat OF one
of the outsiders. This was a signal for
{. general battle; the mob fired in return
one ball taxing effect in DR.. Richard 5

shoulders near the spine--another ball

Immediately reported that Richards
was dead, but he presented himself again
at the door to show his wounds, when
heavy stone hit him on the right side
of his face, which brought him down or
nearly so, at the same time a pistol
shot took effect in his right hand or
wrist. The mob tlen broke out all
his windows, and injured his furniture,
and are now dispensing.
The citizens of the town took little
part in the proceedings; such as did,
sympathised with the strangers; for this
establishment has been a grievous nu
sance for years. After dressing the
wounded, they are found to be danger

cry of DR.. Richards. 1t has been a dis
graceful affair for cur town; but it has
been provoked on by DIR. Richards and
his students, until endurance ceased to
be virtue. 1t is reported (and entitled
to credence) that the DR.. sent this par
ticular suject with two others off to
Warrenville this morning, anticipating
the difficulty that has occurred

THE GRAVE OF THE BROKEN HEART

May the softest drops from the fount Of tears,
That hottest thoughts mpart,
Fell, pure as the grief Of chidhood's years,
On the grave Of the broken heart,
May the early spring its voleis bring;
May the purple blossoms part;
And the maiden fragrance ever cling
Round the grave of the broken heart
May the hues Of the rainbow linger here,
With the shades Of even blending
While the murmurs Of nature fill the ear.
Like the chauns OF saints descending.
Should the summers sun look with ray Toe
On its young and tender flower, strong
Let the lealy tree spread its shades along,
To temper this schorching power.
But as evening comes, and he sinks in the wave
With the hours Of day are dying,
Let his last soft beams kiss the peaceful grave
Where beauty and youth are lying.
And when winters SHOWS in their whitenes.
o, pure may they rest on her clay, Shower
And pure may they fade in the sunbeam
As she faded from earth away! [powe

METROPOLITAN CHIT CHAT.

From letter of our correspondent, in
tended for last paper, and letters from
friends at the Capitol, we make the follow
ing ex,racts-beginning with that from
our correspondent:
"The House adjourned about IL yester-
day [Saturday] to give the Ladies of the
City an opportunity of arranging the Hall
for Tea Party, which they held in the
evening, for the benefit of the Methodist
Church. 1t was well attended, most of
the members of the two Houses being pre-.
sent, and from the manner in which some
of them slowed away creature comforts, it
was thought there might be dearth at
their boarding houses. In the crowd, and
particularly attentive to the ladies, was
our friend, Ben. Tompkins, the Representa-
tive from Cooper. He looked very much
like he was disposed to forsake the worthy
fraternity of old Bachelors (you know he
is one of the Oldest and most respectable
brethren Of the order) and connect his for
tune with that of some of the fair crea-
lures present. have a good joke in rea-
ton to the aforesaid gentleman, which l
reserve for your private ear. Did
you ever see handsomcr man than your
brother chip of the Columbia Statesman
If you suppose for moment you ever did
you would have acknowledged your mis-
take had you been present on that evening

whar." by the side of the Colonel. an
surprised that any one could think for {
moment of comparing him with the ugly
old gentleman of the. Metropolitan.

ern cities, on the approach of the sickly

striking resemblance there is between lob

prowl about public places for the same
purpose-piage. The one takes your
purse outright: the other, by degrees, in
the way of "small loans, for few days"
shot whiskeys," "oys,er suppers," and "ci-
