For the Sentinel.
THE HOMES RUIN.

Once was home where Love did dwell,
Shedding round it a fairy's spell,
Qnelling the rush of PASSIONS tide,
Linking with life happy bride.
Blooming there like lily white,
Robed in the suns resplendent light,
Sweet as the flower on grassy turf,
Virtue grows at the happy hearth.
Accord and Peace, offspring Of Love,
Angels on earth, from Heaven above,
Crowning.the home with dearest charms,
Entwiniug life in joys light arms.
Happy the home where welded bliss,
Repaying Love with sacred kiss.
Drawing its JOY from vows retain'd,
Slipping lis sweet from Love unstrain'd
Now there's home where sorrow dwells,
Tolling sadly its mournful knells,
Lowering there its gloomy pail,
Wrapping its folds round joys fall.
Shattered the VOWS of wedlock now,
Banished is Love from Virtues bower,
Welded to wine is husbands love,
Broken-hearted his mated dove.
Demon of wine, thy frightful form
Hurls in the calm fearful storm,
Car of Perdition robed in gloom,
Bearing thy freight to dreadful doom.
Deathrobea now is that happy home,
Cherries the hearth where sorrows come
Husband TO wife now is foe,
Fiend of He'll It's thy seal of woe.

FIGHTING TO THE DEATH.

Cartwright and Wallwork we're part
ners in a prospecting enterprise near
Emmetsburg. and had been working to-
gether for some time. They had at one
time had differences, but they had been
amicably adjusted. Ferguson was the
friend of both, esteemed by both, and is
Justice Of the Peace of the township. On
Monday last Wallwork, Ferguson and
Charles Cooper had just returned from
Phillipsburg, and Wallwork and Cart
wright happened to be in Fergusons
cabin about noon Only the three mon
were present Wallwork and Cartwright
drifted into quick quarrel (something
about the prospecting claim, we learn,
and both drew weapons simultaneously
Wallwork derringer and Cartwright
navy revolver. Ferguson interposed to
prevent an affray, and caught the revolv-
er, which was accidentally discharged in
the scuffle, the ball passing through
Forguson's right hand, between the first
and second fingers. breaking the bone Of
the first, but not severing the tension.
The ball lodged in the floor Of the cabin.
All three left the cabin, Furguson
going into Caplce Il Smiths store to have
bis hand dressed. While the hand was
being dressed Wallwork and Cartwright
came together again in the street Fred
erick Grant was the only witness of the
first part of the second rcncontre. He
says they were standing abont five or
six feet apart. each armed as before.
Cartwright said to Wallwork two or three
times III riddle you for that likely
having reference to the shooting Of Fer
guson, or the remarks made in the cabin.
Wallwork responded, Commence or
words to that effect, and fred his der
ringer Cartwright fred his navy about
the same time Some say the firing
was simultaneous others that Wallwork
fired first. WalIwork's derringer ball
entered about one inch below the center
of Cartwright's breast lie fell, raised
on his knees, and fired two more shots,
and fell over on bis side with moan
Wallwork, who had received in front ey-
cry ball fred from the navy, turned to
walk away. and again turned back, when
Cartwright raised aud fired a fourth shot,
that also striking Wallwork. One bar
rel remained loaded Six shots fired
had each bit a man. Wallwork received
one ball which lodged three inches above
the right knee; one passed into aud
through the upper part Of the right leg
from the side, and two balls entered the
left leg from the front, one fracturng
the femoral artery (Which will probably
prove fatal, } and one entering four inches
below and to the left Cartwright died.
| Wallwork has little chance of recovery.
Both men were well thought Of; were
sober, not given to desperate deeds, and
had been friendly But both were game.
Wallwork was a large, powerful man.

To OBTAIN FRum FROM BARREN

Of making fruit trees bear that | blum

"a small apple tree that leaned consid-
erably drove stake by it, tied a
string to limb and fastened it to the
stake. The next year that limb bios
soncd full, and not another blossom
appeared on the tree, and as Tim
Bunker said, lit sot met thinking and
came to the conclusion that the string
was SO tight that it prevented the sap
returning to the roots; consequently it
formed fruit buds Having q couple Of
pear trees that were large enough to bear,
but had never blossomed. | took coarse
twine and wound it several times around
the tree above the lower limbs, and tied
it as tight as could The next Spring
all the top above the cord blossomed as
white as sheet and there was not ono
blossom below where the cord was tied
A neighbor, seeing my trees loaded with
pears, used this method with the same
result | have since tried the expert
ment on several trees, almost with tho
same result. think il much better
way than cutting off roots. In early
Summer, say June or July, wind
strong twine several times around the
tree, or a single limb, and tie it, tho
tighter the better and you will be
pleased with the result the next Win

allegation, and insinuates that the

such an assertion. The Board of Prison

right.

The Coming Campaign.

The present campaign in Wisconsin is
peculiar one. The issues between the
two parties are difficult to find. The
Republicans demand support for their
candidates upon the pretext that change
in the administration is necessary in
order to secure the proper administration
of our state affairs. Yet, we fail to see
wherein they arraign our present state
officers for any specific crimes or misde /,
meanors. Gov. Taylor has been faith
full Executive officer. During the two
years he has been in office there have
been no attempts at fraud or plumber.
The Secretary of Scate stands as we'll to-
day. if not better, than he did on the
first day of January 1874 The books
Of the State Treasurer are open for in
spection, and challenge scrutiny. Our
educational interests have received,
under the management of Prof Soaring
!
just such attention as is necessary to Sc
cure for them steady growth And had
the Republicans in their last convention
been willing to throw down party lines
in this one instance and had nominated
Prof Soaring as Supt Of Public In
struction, it would have been a deserved
compliment to that gentleman and would
have shown that that party is really
working for the good Of the state, and
not for the election to office of any set
of men whom it may see Fit to nomin-
ate. Whoever goes into power on the
1st of January 1876, will find that the
last two years have been among the best
in our State administration.
Bat on the other hand, we cannot
but deplore the course taken by some
reputable Democrat journals, in trying
to build up their own projects by will
fully maligning the characters of the
opposition candidates, and thus setting
them in bad light before the people Of
the State. We know that this is the
inyariable custom, and no sooner is a
man up for Office than the political yul-
lures pounce down upon the reputation
Of the unfortunate victim, and with
their sharp claws tear it to pieces. No
man be he ever so virtuous or DESTROYS
of serving his country, can hope to
come out of the fiery furnace of politi-
cal criticism without at least the smell
of fire upon his garments. Nothing is
too sacred to assail. His public and
private record is held up to public gaze;
and no matter how well he may now
be doing or how earnestly he may be
striving to do right, his old sins rise up
in judgment against him, and like the
proyerbial ghost, will not down. The
Democratic party of the State of Wis
consin need not resort to such tricks.
Their men can stand upon their own
merits, and it ought certainly to be
stronger argument to tell of candid
ates own good qualities, than to try to
make him tolerably decent by comparing
them with the bad qualities of his OPP
ponent.
