Killed by lightning.

On Saturday last, near Altoona, Knox
county, this state, before the storm came
up, two Swedes were ploughing corn. See.
ing the threatening aspect of the heavens,
they quickly drove their horses to the
nearest shelter, which proved to be the
overhanging roof Of two adjoining corn
cribs. A farmer near by seeing them un-
der said roof, ran out to talk to them,
reaching them just before the storm broke.
After the storm had cleared away, a
little girl, from house near by, went tc
one of the cribs to collect corn cobs for the
purpose of kindling fire. Lying near the
crib, aud within an area a blanket would
almost have covered, she found the three
men stone dead, the horses, strange to say,
being uninjured.
On the bodies of the three men not the
slightest mark WIS discovered. Que Of
them. however, had watch in his vest

PeLIea COURT.


Timothy O'Regan, one-armed machin-
list, came to this city, few days ago and
happened to 60 into Geo. Adler's low hole
on illinois street, just above Madison,
where he BECAME acquainted with Frank
Lawson, one-legged drunken unfortun.
ate; West Reddig, another drunken crea
ture; and a nobbY young scamp (name
unknown) who is selling some kind of a
lamp fixture. He had small bundle OF
clothes and Alder succeeded in getting a
pair of pants from him by getting him
drunk, Tim agreeing to redeem them. The
above named parties would then go up t.
the bar, take drink, and have it charged
against the pants. This did not satisfy
them yet, so they auctioned off the rest Of
his clothes to Lawson for IS cents, and
threatened to whip Tim if he squealed on
them. Tim protested, and the end of the
matter was aGght in which he received a
black eye and other bruises, and was taken
to Jail by Policeman Ankrum. He was
fined rs and costs, but was let off after
telling his story. Why don't the police
clean out that Alder hole? 1t is disgrace
to the city, to have such place in it.

negro, was found in railroad car asleep
last Mi ht by Policeman German and wa.
taken to Jail. He answered the discrip-
ton of the negro who outraged Mrs. Man

Ready to Lynch Him,

Mrs. Mandel was too iii to leave her bed
yesterday and was not brought into Dayen-
port to take look at the negro.in jail
Sheriff Leonard, Chief Martens and the
Clinton Deputy Sheriff rode out to Man
del's to see the woman. They found the
lady sick in body, very weak indeed, and
very low spirited. She couldn't take food
she was possessed with sense Of de-
graduation, and didn't want to live, baby
seven months old In the room notwith-
standing. The officers had heard that q
I party of men were waiting in the woods
along the Lost Grove road to intercept the
prisoner and lynch him, Nothing was
seen of any men going out, but on their
return they had not proceeded quarter
of mile from Mandefs place when mer
came swarming to the road from every di
rection, and they were soon surrounded by
100 to $50 men demanding to know where
the negro was. When told that he wa.
in Jail in Davenport they seemed disap
pointed.
A resort to mob law is a dreadful al
tentative; it throws society into anarchy
and places innocent men at the mercy Of al
Infatuated mob. In this case the law fur
nishes no adequate. punishment for sucl
crime as was committed upon thi
poor helpless woman. Any man
white or black, who commits that
crime deserves thousand deaths. N
husband could endure to live knowing tina
the william who had beaten his wife into in
sensibility and Favished her was alive. N
father or brother could endure the though
of such treatment of his daughter or sis
ter, The crime seems daily growing NOR
frequent, and there is no adequate punish
ment for it but death, The danger is il
getting the wrong man. There should b
no mistake about that. But when tn
right man is found, beyond doubt, tn
husband of that poor woman should hav
a chance to prevent the brute from eve
committing that crime again. Societ
cannot protect itself any other way than
rid the earth of such creatures as sas
as they are found Every man VIII
has wife, or sister, or mother, can pei
ceive that the law and lawyers and none
encourge instead Of discourage the crime
Let every william in the land be warne
that he commits that crime at the peril {
an instant and horrible death, But IL
there be no mistake as TO the man-let u
innocent or doubtful man suffer. Let th
Identification be perfeS and certain.

A CHANGE AT THE BosToN Bazaar -
Messrs. L. S. Gates & Co. would inform
the public that they are now going out of
the dry goods business and intend to de-
vote their time to the sewing machine
business exclusively, and will sell their
entire stock of dry goods, notions and
carpats at net cost. There has never been
any misrepresentation of selling goods at
cost heretofore, and the public may be
assured that this is no humbug, but that
they mean just what they say. They
recommend the public to call early and
secure bargains before the stock is
broken. 7'20-d&w2m.

Rarnum's Hlppodrome,


This colossal institution, tue show of the
times, will exhibit here, Wednesday, Au-
gust 18th. giving two performances. OF
the great Hippodrome too much in praise
cannot well be said The Chicago Inter
Ocean writes Of it as follows;
There has been an unusual degree of
stir and hustle in the streets during the
past two days, and down on the lake front
the congregation of people is something
immense. On every street leading to the
location of Barnum's gigantic tent, there
is constant stream of people going to and
from the show. Strangers are Aocking in
| by hundred from the country, and the OBJ
jective point for them all is Barnum's.
Certainly no circus or menagerie that ever
visited Chicago has succeeded in arousiDg
such degree of public interest, and no
show of the kind ever drew such enormous
audiences. The first matinee performance
was given yesterday afternoon, and the at
tendance was in the neighborhood of 5000
| people. Last evening the great tent was
packed in every part, more SO than on the
| first night, so that there were probably
about $4,000 people present. This is do
| ing show business on big scale with ven
I
geance.
That the Hippodrome has completely
outstripped in attractiyeness the venerable
institution called a circus, is amply dem
onstrated by the experience of the last few
seasons in all large cities. The country
folks are slow to indorse innovations, and
in many rural Districts, no doubt, the alb
sence of the familiar friend, the clown,
and the substitution of live, actual racing
for the old feats of horseback riding,is still
regarded with distrust These are the
days of progress in all things, however,
and we may as we'll make up our minds
now as afterward that the palmy days of
the Legitimate" circus are going, not to
return. Barnum was far-sighted enough
to perceive that the rising generation was
taking but lapguid interest in the old
sawdust ring, and be remodelled it, and in
fused fresh life-blood into it. To the great
majority of people Jew things are more ex-
citing than u good horse race. Now. a
lively race is just as interesting under Q
canvas as IN the open air, and good deal
more comfortable to the spectator. The
races last evening created an excitement
that recalled something of the scenes we
read of in connection with the Eng
! lish turf. The fat race by the five
young ladies on English thoroughbreds
reused the vast audience to wild pitch oil
excitement, and it was evident that the fail
competitors were as deeply interested in
{ the result as any in the crowd, They ar.

There can be no doubt about the Mary
land platform. 1t is not a fool-trap. It
is sincere expression of the views which
the Democrats of Maryland entertain, and
it makes no attempt to bring in under
cover of any ambiguous or hating phrase
anybody who does not believe in free
trade, hard money and home rule. Peo-
pie who believe, or who believe that they
believe, in protection, rag money and Gen.
tralization, are expressly notified that they
will not help to secure any one of those
blessings by going in for the Democratic
candidates in Maryland. Hedging resolu-
tons about the tariff and the currency,
which were not meant for anybody to un-
derstand, which were meant for everybody
to misunderstood, and in which nobody
could say that be believed, although, as
they were on both sides Of the question,
nobody could safely say that he disbelieved
them, have done a great deal of mischief
