Wholesale Poisoning

Napervllle, ILL.,, June 10.
Never before in the history of Naperville
was such IN excitement created as on last
Sunday evening, when it was reported that
the entire congregation of the DunEirk
Church, who were celebrating a love feast,
had been poisoned by eating meat prepared
in copper kettle and allowed to remain
there until the liquid had become oxyd-
lied. Nearly every one in the village had
a fiiend or relative in attendance, and
consequently there was a general rush for
the church in question. Upon entering
the building, the scene which met their
gaze verified the reports. In different por.
tons OF the church were the sufferers, some
sitting and OTHERS lying down, the latter
twisting themselves into all sorts of posi-
tons, rolling around the floor, and all APP
parently suffering the most excruciatipg
pain. Medical assistance was atoncc sum
moned, but, as it was very limited, consid-
cradle time elapsed before all could be at
tended to. The stomach pulrp was
brought into requisition, and those who
gave evidence of suffering the most were
considerably relieved by its use. 1t was
found upon actual count that no less than
one hundred and thirty men were more or
less affected, the major portion, however,
but slightly, they having partaken of but a
small quantity of the food. About twenty
were found to be in dangerous condition.
These were removed to their homes, and
every attention paid them, and before
morning many Of them were out Of danger.
Those who were but slightly affected, with
some little assistance got home, and every
attention paid them, and iu a short time
were entirely out of danger. it seems
that the members were, as stated above,
celebrating love feast. On Saturday last
quantity of meat was cooked in a copper
kettle. About one half was eaten that day,
and the remainder allowed to remain in the
kettle until Sunday, on account Of there
being no other place to keep it. Remain
ing so long in the liquid it became oxyd>
ICED, and, when partaken of, Of course POI
soned those who ate it. Some of the suf.
ferers did not recover for two or three days,
but now all are pronounced out of danger

The Wrong Man Executed by Butte

The Wrong Man Executed by Butler.
The following statement is from Mrs.
DoRsAYs Recollections of Henry w.
Allen" Governor of Louisiana during the
late war: i04 d '' 4g1
. 1t was known among US that William
K. Mumford was not guilty of this crime(?)
of taking down the United States flag,
which was done before the city surrendered,
and not done by him.; General Butler s
court of military commission found him
guilty. 1t must have been on circumstan-
tial, If any evidence, because the flag was
removed by Adolphus Harper, a young
man of l6, WHO was hurried out of the city
by his alarmed friends immediately after
the commission of the daring act, before
Harper was aware of Mumfords capture.
Harper was sent up the river, near
Natchez -,
:. Learning afterward of Mumford' S
summary execution, young Harper, in an
agony OF distress, tried to get back to New
Orleans, in order TO surrender himself to
the United States authorities, in vain
thought OF expiration to the martyred Mum
ford. But his friends about Natchez pre-
vented this mad, boyish act-prompted by
the lad s sense of honor-and at last sue
ceeded in convincing him that it would be
a useless, sacrifice of another life, which
might be made valuable to the South.
Harper then joined Bradford's scouts, and
was killed in skirmish about ten miles
from Natchez. He is buried in Fayette.
uarper''s friends say he was always under
cloud after .Mumford's death. He was
very handsome, and brave, reckless sol

Sidewalk Etiquette.

Some of our Chester6eldian exchanges
has the following on sidewalk etiquette,
which We comMend to the attention of our
readers:
"Ony villagers. or persons with rural
ideas, any longer contend that ladies should
always be given the inside Of the pavement
in passing. The rule adopted 10 all cities
is toturn to the right, whether the right
leads to the wall or to the gutter; and an
observance O'eIhis common sense rule would
obviate much unpleasant scrouging, b.
over gallant gentlemen who persi.tently
crowd for the outside of the walk. Anoth.
er common custom, not required by fash
ionabls etiquette, and one which is as near
ly as inexpanably absurd, is the practice
of men fling out of church pew, making
themselves as ridiculous as an awkward
squad practicing a catch step, in order to
give the woman the wrong end Of the pew.
Another is that of man, when at prone
made or walk with a lady, to keep himself
on the outside of the pavement. A little
exercise of judgment win convince any
person of the perfect uselessness Of this
bobbing back and forth at every corner.
The common rule is this IF men and
women are walking together, she should
always be at his right arm, whether it be
toward the inside or the outside of the
walk then the woman will not be showed
against the passers. Those who giggle at
persons who follow this rule are themselves
the 'greenies, and should read the book of
manners before they indulge In the laugh
of fashionable fools" = ~l.s tifA

Kit Carson.

Kit Carson, who died at Fort Lyon, Col
orado, on the 31st ult., OF a rupture of an
artery In the neck, was one of the most no
ted of that intrepid race of mountaineers,
trappers, and guides that have ever been
the pioneers of civilization In its advance
ment westward across the western CONT
nent. The New York Tribune says he was
born ia Madison county, Kentucky, Decem-
Def "a, 1909, and while he vas mere in
FAINT, his parents emigrated to what is now
Howard county, Missouri, but what was
then an almost unbroken wilderness. AT
the age of fifteen he was upprentlced to a
saddier, with whom he continued two
years, after which he joined hunting ex-
petition and thus commenced the pursuit
he followed during the remainder OF his
life. For eight years he was on the plains
leading the adventurous life of trapper,
which he relinquished only on receiving the
appointment of hunter to Bent's Fort,
where he continued for eight years more.
At the expiration OF this time he paid a
short visit to his family, and on his return
met, for the first time, General, then
Lieut.. John G. Fremont, by whom his ex-
preciated, and by whom, also, he was EN-
gagged as guide in his subsequent explors-
tons. In I847, Carson was sent to WASH
ington as bearer of dispatches, snd was
then appointed Lieutenant in the Rifle
Corps Of the United States Army. In
1853, be drove $500 sheep over the noun
tains to California, very hazardous un-
dertaking at that time, and, on his return
to Laos, was appointed Indian Agent in
New Mexico. Since this appointment he
has been largely instrumental in bringing
about the treaties between the United
States and the Indians, and on mission
of this kind he visited Washington a few
weeks ago in company with deputation of
the red men, and made tour of several Of
the Northern gnd Eastern cities.

The Omnibus load of Infamy.

The Senate at Washington, on Wednes-
day Of last week, passed the House blu for
the admission of North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia and Alabama, with a
few unimportant amendments, in which the
House will probably concur. The Chicago
Times thus vent;lates the purpose which
constrained the loil !" Senate to take this
action: :. . 1t is evidently the intention of
the Jacobins to put up electoral tickets in
the excluded States, and claim the right
to count the vote of the South in TIE cleo
toral college. How this can be done with
any degree of decency and consistency,
while those States are denied admission to
Congress, is beyond the ingenuity Of the
Jacobins to explain ,g hnFfs5b
. The bill provides for the admission of
the States when the Legislatures thereof
shall have ratified the article known as The
fourteenth amendment to the Constitution
Of the United States. This necessitates the
converting Of the Legislatures; and the
Governors of the States are authorized by
the. bill to convene those bodies within
thirty days after its passage As Congress
will probably adjourn in July, and the
President can retain the bill for ten days,
much work must be done within a shcrt
time to get those States in during the pres
ent session. AS the black and tan party
has resolved to rush The business, we may
expect to see the South misrepresented in
Congress next'month. Texas and Virginia
promise. to give the .Jacobins trouble.
Outside the Internal regions there can
not be found a lower depth of crime than
was reached by Congress in the passage Of
the military bills. 1t has essayed to dive
deeper into wickedness in 'tinkering' the
reconstruction intamy, but it has not sue.
ceeded. This latest bill is intended to com.
plete the hideous and loathsome work
which the military bills commenced and il
would be natural to suppose it would be
worse than its fellows This is not the
case, because the earthly bottom of mean.
ness and moral putrefaction was touched
by the tail added in July last. The omni,
bus bill is another tail, the Arkansas bill
another, and Texas and Virginia will add
two more. y a1- sre g7a.
