"There is no doubt that the school ques.
ton did materially damage the Democrats.
1t CAME In snly in the most Incidental way,
but wherever it comes fairly into canvass,
no matter to how tr,fi,ng form, it is sure to
prove potent. In the present chsotic condi.

which can muster go many adherents as this:
that the common.school funds must be kept
sacred for the common schools, and that no
shape or form of sectarisn appropriations for

The fact that Mrs. Lincoln was adj
judged insane partly upon evidence that
she bought very many things she did
not need, has placed a weapon in the hands
of the married men of the country
which they are prompt to use. A
Brooklyn husband furnishes an illustra-
ton. He gave his wife fair wardrobe
in the spring, and now if she hints at a
need of more, he gazes at her with a
look of alarm in his face, and, putting
on his hat, remarks, 81 think will step
over to the doctors moment. Be quiet
and calm, love, until I return. y

A CAT SAVES A FAMILY.

A goose once saved Rome, and on
Sunday morning last the family of Mr..
Thomas, of Yorkyille, in this county,
was saved from dreadful death N their
burning dwelling by the warning of a
cat. which had her nest of kittens in the
siding of the house where the fire was
set. The readers of The Journal viii
remember the incarceration, short time
since, of John Thomas, for the burning
of the barn of Mr.. Campbell OF Yorkyllle,
and was bailed for the otfense IN the
sum of $1,000 This man Thomas IS
worth some thousands of dollars, and
has had difficulty with his brother for
some years, alternately threatening, and
it is supposed he is the party to the three
fires in that neighborhood, two of which
have been fully reported IN The journal.
The third and last of the supposed acts
of this fiend was the burning Of his
brothers house, in the dead of night,
with men, women and children asleep
and unconscious of the sweep that was
about to be made of their home, their
clothing, their all. The fire was laid
through an open clapboard, and ran up
the side of the house with fearful rapid
ity. and ten persons sleeping IN the
house. As the fire approached Tabby
with her little ones, she sprang to the
bed of the hired man, .and in her way
appealed to him to ''saye her child"
1t is to this feline that the family OF Mr..
Thomas Thomas owe their lives. In ten
minutes the roof fell in. The dwelling
soon after was a smoldering ruin, and
the whole family in the open air with
hardly fig leaf in comparison to cloth
ing. After the fire John Thomas, the
supposed incendiary, came UP to the
scene of conhagration and was summar-
ilv bounced upon and severely punish
ed by the assembled indignant neighbors,
but finally got away. Sheriff Dickinson
went out on Sunday to arrest Thomas.
but he is still at large. Thomas is under
bail of $4,000 for the burning of Mr..
Campbel1s barn.
Since the above was put IN type,
Thomas was arrested in the woods IN the
town of Raymond, by Deputy Sheriff
Kline, and lodged in jail. A represen-
tatiye of The Journal interviewed the
prisoner in Jail yesterday, and his story
is to the effect thathis brothers family are
prejudiced against him, and he being
bachelor, want to get him out of the way
that they may get his property. He
says he is innocent of the charges

A GERaIAN statistician who has collect
ed facts in relation to the production of
the PRECIOUS metals, shows that the
Uunted States has become the greatest
silver producing country of the world,
taking the precedence even of Mexico,
which has hitherto been supposed to
yield nearly two-thirds of the worlds
supply. In 1878, the silver production
of this country was estimated at ss;35, $780,
600, and the amount mined in this
country has been constantly increasing.

DURING the tornado of Wednesday
night, the residence of Mr.. William
Frazier, near Enterprise, Vernon county,
was demolished. The sills and floor of
the house were seen flying through the
air more than 4 mile from the scene of
the disaster, and have not yet been
found. Each member of the family was
in some way injured little baby was
blown some distance from the ruins, and
so badly mangled that it is feared it can
not recover. A servant girl had her nose
broken. and one of her ears torn from
her head. No other damage was done
by the wind save a few fences which
were blown down in every direction.

These are all the fatalities now known
but there may be others. Nearly 100
persons were more or less bruised and
were attended by the doctors. The
track of the whirlwind could be traced
for miles by planks, roofs, articles of
furniture, and clothing and miscellane-

city was very great and thousands flock

On Saturday last Louis Walker died
at West Liberty. Before his death, he
expressed the earnest wish that, ifhe died,
he should be buried on the farm where
he formerly lived, near Bevington, .
station on the Wintefest Branch of the
Rock Island Road, about IL miles from
this city. The stricken wife, filed with
love for him, and with heart broken
with sorrow and grief, sought to fulfill
the wishes of her dead husband. She
procured burial-case, started on her
sad errand, and passed through here on
Monday. She arrived at Bevington, a
stranger to everybody. OF the station
agent she enquired as to the location of
the farm where her husband was to be
buried. The agent inquired who it was
to be buried, and, on being told, he
quickly foresaw a very unpleasant affair.
The widow had come to bury her hus-
band on the premises of a man whose
daughter, then at home, was the wife of
the deceased. The agent, after some
consideration, deemed it best to inform
the widow of the facts. She received
the story with perfect establishment,
and could scarcely believe her late hus
band guilty of such baseness but, on
being assured it was SO, she became
indignant, and left the body with cit
liens, to be conveyed to wife No. 1
(whose first knowledge for years of the
whereabouts of her husband was his ar
rival in burial-casket), to be disposed
of as she saw fit, and, taking the first
train, she returned to her home. Since
her departure, it has been discovered
that Walker had still another wife in
Missouri.
