The Message.

It's hardly necessary to give an a bstraet
of this document, which every intelligent
man, especially in Oxford County, will be
so much interested in reading for himself.
We listened to its delivery with much
pleasure, and heard concentrations OF
approval OH all sides. 1t is eminently
practical, and nbounds in common sense.
Its recommendations will have weight.
because fit and proper. We have not
space, this week, to dwell upon it. The
views upon the temperance question, es-
pecally those referring to Cider, will
elicit most comment The logic and pitt
of what is said on this subject, is that
legislation in relation 10 Cider, TO be
permanent, should not be in advance Of
public sentiment, and this is an arioni
which is SO self evident that il must be
accepted, however unpalatable. There
is no backing dO,Cn in this statement of
the Message. and we believe it will be
generally acquiesesd in and approved.
What will DO the wisest legislation OIL
the subject, for the good of the cause, is
a matter OF serious enquiry 10 every tenn
perancc man. The State Temperance
Convention, which meets on tho 10th, will
he allie to solve the problem, perhaps.
There is but one opinion as to tho

The McArthur enquirer. (M'arthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1873-1884, 1873-03-12

The ladies of the Moduis
tribe of Indians in Arizona
have a very convenient way OF
distinguishing maids and mat
rons, so as to prevent any pos
sible mistake on the part OF
bachelors in search Of wives,
as soon as the girles arrive at a
marriageable age, they do their
hair up on each side of their
head, something in the shape
of two great wigs, or, as ii
most reminds one, of the wheels
of a steamer. AS soon as
they enter the holy bonds Of
maHimony, they drop their
wings, and then their hair
hangs in large rolls by the
side Of the head.
The McArthur enquirer. (M'arthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1873-1884, 1873-03-12
A Wisconsin gcamste Eaten by
Wolves,

Mail adyices from the little
town Of New london, Wis,
bring news Of the discovery of
a terrible tragedy near Perry's
Mills. AS Heinrich Bloch, a
German farmer, was coming
out of the woods north of the
mills his attention was
attracted by the appearance
ofthe otherwise unbroken snow
round a large tree. The crust
was broken and bloody, and
upon it lay a heap Of what
seemed robes or flTs, surround
ed by various indescribable OBJ
ects. Going nearer, he was
surprised and Mortified to dis
cover that the heap of robes
was apple composed ofthe bodies
Of two dead wolves and a dead
dog, all gashed and torn. The
other things were a skeleton of a
man, from which nearly all the
flesh and entrails had been
picked, some Of the. bones be-
ing quite torn off and lying in
the snow at some distance,
bearing marks of abrasion from
the sharp teeth Of the merci-
less brutes. Some rags of
bloody clothing were there.
The feet of the skeleton, which
were incased in very heavy
boots and thick socks, had es-
capped, The probability seems
that the unfortunate man was
a lumberer, going from one
camp to another who was over
taken by the pack and killed
ere he could climb a tree, after
a stubborn fight. The immense
ly deep SHOWS and consequent
scarcity of game have made the
wolves, usually cowardly, des-
perately fierce, so that the mis-
cradle mans fate must have
been what conjecture, shudder-
ing, sets it down.
