THE FUNERAL or MIR HANBUM The
funeral services OF Mir. G. P. Hunnum,
who's painful death we announced on
Saturday, were attended by a large num-
Der Of our citizens on Sunday afternoon.
The spacious Congregational Church was
filled by those who sympathize deeply
with the afflicted family: 1t was one of
the largest gatherings ever witnessed in
our village on a similar occasion. Rev.
Leland Howard preached an impressive
discourse from these words "To die is

The character Of the deceased and
the painful manner of his death, were
calculated to fill all hearts with pro-

the following:
"a distinguished Senator, who has
had conversation with Secretary STAN

Friday last, when the reconstruction
question was brought up, Mr.. Stanton
said he was glad it was before the Cabi-
net, so that a general expression of opin-
ion could be obtained. He favored the
Congressional plan, with the exception
of that part which disfranchised the
rebels for four years. With this excep-
ton he thought the plan very judicious. :"

Convention recently held in Kentucky
is very lengthy, but its character is well
sketched in the following answer of an

counts from Madison, Wis, represent
that Wisconsin river is two feet higher
than during the great food of 1910,
when 1t rose forty feet. The low lands
are inundated and appear like an extern
sive chain of lakes. Dams, bridges and
habitations have been swept away and
destroyed by the food, aud many lives
lost. The loss to property will proba-
bly, exceed 100000, but as yet it is
impossible to form any correct estimate,
owing to the complete interruption Of

Advertiser speaks in the following tone
of the negro schools at that point;
at is really ridiculous to see the herds
of big, strapping women of all ages,
who ought to be engaged in some honest
employment, with bundles of books un-
der their arms, focking to school every
morning. 1t is all the rage with them
now to learn to read, as if all the book
learning in the world would do them
any good. Education is a good thing
In its way, and we certainly have no OBJ
lection TO any one acquiring as much of

but we do think that it is a waste of the
precious article to throw it away on

A HEAD D1REcTREss" IN THE FIELD.
The every latest" event in the history
of the Fenian organization is a procla-
nation from "Johannah O'Shea, Head
Directress, Gen. Sweeney Circle, Fenian
Sisterhood." She remarks, of course,
that the crisis has now been reached,
and adds
Gone and all, we must meet it with
the vigor and energy which the emer-
gency demands. The long wished-for
hour has come, and noble hearts are
burning for the battle, and stalwart
arms are buckling on the implements of
war. at will be, in all probability, the
fiercest fight that ever Irish valor waged
against English oppression and usurpa-
ton"
In view of the conflict, she states that
a sanitary commission has been organ
lied, and invites contributions of lint
and other articles, which are, of course,
specified in postscript.
