very deliberately BY jumping into an air

by Mr.. Cameron, who made an attempt
to rescue her, and came very near losing
his own life. His little son, who Was with
him, threw the comfor ter to him which
he wore about his neck, and succeeded in
keeping his father from being drowned,
until assistance came. Mr.. Cameron had
succeeded in grssping the dress Of the
unfortunate woman and would undoubt.

to rescue her, had tho ice been sufficient

DIABoLIsM.-A most cowardly and
6endish act was perpetrated in Mosalem
township yesterday week. The circum-
stances we're as follows: An estimable
and competent young lady was EMPLOYED
to teach school in Mosalem town. anb.
district No. 2. For some time Disagree
ment has existed between . certain nartv
and the sub-director, who is the father Of
the teacher in question. Ever since her
appointment as teacher, efforts have been
made lin order to mortify her father) TO
have her removed the District Board
was appealed to, petition Was circulated,
lawyer was consulted and paid-in q
word everything was done to have the
teacher discharged. but in vain; the Board
could see NO just cause for . discharge.
and refused to do SO. Failing in all things
else, assassin-hke, . dark and stormy
night was chosen, with stealth and COW.
ardly steps the school house approached
and with fence rails for prizes. the logr
we're knocked out, the windows and fur.
niturs destroyed and the building reduced
to heap Of ruins. The sub. district, il
consequence, il left without schbel fol
the winter. We did not bslieve il Los
sible that miscreant could b found il

such IN act, and If the citizens of Mosa
lem will do justice to themselves, they
win at once rebuild the school house ans
offer reward for the apprehension of iii
perpetrators. Dubaqus Times.

BROKE INA man named Albsrs, OF
Grace Mills, at Warsaw, Illinois. broke
through the ice yesterday on his way to
this city with load Of -four. His team
and load were lost but he managed to es-
cape himself. This should be warning
to all not to venture too far. The ice in
many places between here and Warsaw is
weak, especially where small cakes have
frozen together, and should not be driven
over with loaded teams until there is a
road made.

~ Our Illinois neighbors will now
bear In mind that our ice-bridge is per-

kind Of teaming, and that they can come
across toll free with their produce and
provisions and get fair price for them

sleighing is excellent and the ice strong
enough to bear team of elephants. So,
