The Fasder of John Burns.-We have been
requested by number of residents of the first
Ward, to call public attention to the fact that
the father of John Burn has threatened to poi
son the water in the public basin, and to other
wise revenge himself upon the public of Wheel

old mans whole course of conduct since his
sons arrest has been suficicntt to convince every.
body that he is hopelessly deranged, yet we
consider him powerless for evil Some think
differently, however, and are of opinion that he
should be arrested and committed to jail for

of selfdestruction even after they were rescued
