The Manitowoc tribune. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1866-1878, 1874-10-08

CIT is the bubbling stream that flows
gently; the little rivulet which runs
along day and night By the farm house,
that is useful, rather than the swollen
food or warning cataract. Niagara e2-
cites cur wonder, and we stand amazed
at the wonderful greatness of God there
as it pours in from the hollow of his
hand. But one Niagara is enough for
the continent of the world, while the
same world requires thousands and tens
of thousands of silver fountains and
gentle flowing rivulets that water every
farm and meadow, and every garden, and
shall flow on every day and night with
their gentle, quiet beauty. So with the
acts OF our lives. 1t is not by great
deeds, like those of the martyrs. good
is to be done, but by the daily and quiet
virtues of life"

A.NECDoTE OF CARDINAL.-IO relate
an anecdote without being able to give
the name of the subject of it-more es-
pecially when that name is to be found
among the most illustrIous on record
seems to SAVIOR of absurdity In no ordi-
nary degree. The persorage, however,
to whom we refer, was French Cardi-
nal, and one, we believe, equally rever-
enced both as a good man and priest.
On certain occasion Git was during a
spell of uncommonly warm weather..
His Eminence," quite early in the
morning, and in the Gghtest costume
imaginable, sought room adjacent to
his bedroom, from the open window Of
which he fondly imagined he could en-
tice the breeze. For such purpose he
was leaning out of the window, in a posi-
ton the most comfortable and easy.
when male domestic Of the estabhch-
ment Glanced to enter the apartment,
and, installing the Cardinal for a fell
low-servant, gleefully acct both his
hands, and, stealthily approaching Ellis
Eminence," gave the latter SO tremend-
Gus slap, on a part that shall be name
less. that this illustrious and most ami
able son of the Church at once jumped
to his feet, assiduously rubbing the part,
when he encountered before him, on
his knees, the domestic aforesaid,
tremblingly exclaiming, Please, your
Eneinence, I thought 1t acas George.
The Cardinal, still engaged in the sooth-
ing operation, remarked, : Vel, fit had
been George, you need not hare struck So
hard

Popon and Cremer.

Admiral Popoff and Captain Cremer
Of the Russian navy we're specially des.
ignated to do the civil thing for the
Duke Of Edinburgh, during his stay in
St. Petersburgh. OF these two men,
the correspondent of the London Stand
ard gives this account:
The admiral is one of the most emf.
nent seamen in the Russian service. His
invention of the round iron-clad, known
here as the Popovka, has given him a
European reputation. Whether this
extraordinary vessel viii turn out to be
Of any real value or not remains to be
proved; but many men of special knoRl-
edge in nautical Silence think highly OF
it. Captain Cremer is another very pop
ular man in the navy; he is one Of the
heroes Of Sebastopool, where be distin.
guished himself by his skill and bravery.
He has had several hair-breadth escapes,
and, indeed, he seems 10 bear a charmed
life. A metal cigar case in his pocket
once saved his life by stopping
bullet fired at him as he was
walking from one battery to another,
exposing his person with all a sailor ;
carelessnessi and once the battery he
commanded vas blown up, and he was
sent some distance by the force Of the
explosion. When he was picked up be
was found TO be quite senseless, and Sc.
verely wounded, but be lived 10 see more
service and 10 experience other dangers.
la 1868 he was wrecked in the Alexander
Nevsky, but his good fortune attended
him. Though the ship Ess lest, the
Grand Duke Alexis was saved, as well
as all on board, with the exception oil
two officers and five men, who fell a sac.

The great German fancy dress ball
and carnival of the season, given under
the auspices of the Liederkranz Society,
comes off this evening at the Academy
of Music. The ball this year promises
to be more brilliant than any of its pre-

is largely in excess of last years sale.
The ball room decorations are OF the
most lavish description.
The Canard steamer Cambria, which
sailed for Europe yesterday, took out
thirty cabin and sixty steerage passen-
gers, and $25O,OOO in silver; she also
took out special dispatches to the British
Government.
A dispatch from Hartford, Conn,
SAYS the village of South Windham, on
the line of the New London railroad, is
terribly afflicted with small pox. 1t is
reported that every family in that village

nication from outside is allowed. There
are eighty cases already in neighboring
towns.
The efforts of the city journals in be-
half of the suffering poor of New York

are being rapidly received byvarious aid
societies, organized to distribute food

at ten o'clock this morning in Castle
Hall of Myrtle Lodge in Masonic Tenn
pie, Grand Chancellor I. s. Jukes pre-
siding, and W. B. Thompson acting as
Grand Scribe.
The Order numbers among its mem
bers some of the best men Of the State
The lodges in Nashville and Edgeheld
have membership Of l40.
This Order, though young, is estab'
lished in every State and most OF the
Territories of the United States and has
crossed over into the Canadas, and will,
ere long, we understand, light its altar
fires upon the shores of the Old World.
It's growth has been unprecedented,
and in influence and benevolence is the
peer of any similar organization OF our
country. 1t stepped upon the world
stage at time most opportune for the
inculcations of principles and the prac-
tice of deeds Of charity and benevo-
lence. There is room enough for all our
benevolent Orders in this wide, wide
world, with its cold charities.
The remains of the late l.. S. Hester
were escorted to the depot at Memphis
Sunday by sixty.fve Knights. They
were put in charge of committee com
posed of Grand Chancellor T. S. Jukes,
W II. Moyston, A. Hum, Samuel
Knight and - Parmele, and brought
to Nashville, arriving here yesterday
morning. =, 4,
The knights of Pythias assembled
here at the Masonic Hall at |: 80 o'clock
for the purpose of paying the last sad
tribute to the memory OF their deceased
brother, l.. Hester. The procession
moved through the streets slowly and
sadly to the music OF the Rock City
band. The Knights marched out to Mt.
Olivet Cemetery, where they deposited
the remains of the deceased in the
grave prepared to receive them. The
services were conducted by Rev. DR..
Kelley and continued by Past Chancel-
lor Claiborne. After the services were
over the Knights returned to Masonic
Hall.
Mr.. Hester was formerly of this city,
and was highly respected and esteemed
by all who knew him. He had been but
a short time in Memphis when he fell
victim to that dreadful scourge-yellow
desolated so many happy
homes and carried away some OF her
brightest ornaments of society.

ADJUSTMENTS.

MEMPHIS THEATEB. The Chapman
Sisters appeared at the matinee yester-
day in Don Giovanni, and gave q most
pleasing and attractive presentation of
this musical and popular burlesque
opera. Last night the company ap-
peared in a farce entitled. The Wrong
Man, and in the musical burlesque, The
Gold Demon. The opera was full of
choice musical selections, which we're
rendered by the Chapman Sisters
in a manner which brought forth
repeated rounds of applause from
the audience. Blanche Chapman
sang "Sweet Spirit Hear My Prayer"
in manner worthy of the best artistes
Several duets, quartettes, triOs and solos
we're given in fine style. Ella Chapman,
by her piquant style Of acting, terpsi-
chorean feats and musical talent and
grotesque drollery, never fails TO capti-
vate the audience. She has made de-
oided hit in Memphis, and gives promise
to become a leading artistic coincidence
of the opera bouHe stage In many
parts she resembles Mrs. Oates, and in
others the great Aimee. She plays the
banjo and sings better than Lolita and
dances equally as well. The other
members Of the Chapman company
fully sustained the roles given them.
Tonight Aladdin, or the Wonderful
Lamp, will be the operate attraction.
and will be preceded by farce entitled
Nature and Philosophy. Tomorrow
evening Fra Diavolo will be presented
At the matinee on Saturday Aladdin
aud on Saturday night Forty Thieves.
BARRErr.-Next Monday evening
Lawrence Barrett will appear as Rich
ellen at the theater. In this character
he is superb, or as the critics say, the
illusion is complete. We seem to behold
the physically weak, in6rm old man; "
the crafty cardinal who. where the
lions skin fell short, eked it out with the
foz's;" the ambitious prime minister Of
France who for eighteen years main
tanned the ascendancy over his master,
Louis XIII, dismembered Spain, humil-
lated Austria. crushed internal treason
and conspiracies and laid the founda-
ton Of the French kingdom. In short,

Decentralization at Jerusalem.

The London correspondent ofthe jew
ish Messenger says that he is in receipt
of a private letter from Jerusalem which
gives sad account Of things in the Holy
City. Beggars are many, laborers few:
1t is, indeed, sad to hear these continued
descriptions, from impartial witnesses,
of the miserable, beggarly position OF
the Jews of Jerusalem. A great deal of
the present misery of the Jerusalem
Jews is directly traced to the misplaced,
ill,advsed generosity of the European
Jews, who think they are discharging a
religious duty, as well as performing a
charitable act by sending money in the
form of cheluchah to Jerusalem. Old
men, middle-aged men and even young
lads, who can and ought to be made to
work for their living, center their whole
object in life upon sharing in the funds
obtained from the Jews outside OF Jeru-
salem. The worst Of it is that the young
children follow, and, in fact, are made to
follow the pernicious example OF their
parents. There must eventually come a
time when concerted action will be taken
by the Jews of Europe upon this ques-
ton. Undoubtedly great good could be
done with the money now sent to Jeru-
salem, if better system of distribution
were organized. As il is, under the pre-
sent system, the money does mech more
harm than good.

Tine RrookIyn DefaIcaiIon,

BROOKLYN, February l2.-Further in
vestigations in the tax Office of this city
reveal the fact that some of the most
important books have suddenly disap-
peared, and consequently the money
collections cannot be traced and recov-
cred nor the defaulting collectors pun
ished. 1t has been ascertained that
there are over $4,000 in one branch of
the tax Office not heretofore returned.
An official report of the whole subject
will be presented in few days to the
Board of Aldermen for action in the
matter. Comptroller Schroeder thinks
that the total amount stolen during the
past few years must be in the neighbor-
hood of 81 100000.
