game, but on consulting a time
table lie found that another train
started two hours later, AMI so de-
clded to take it. He figured TO
himself, as he impatiently crowded
into an empty seat, and was belng
whirled along at a rapid rate, how
snugly bis brothers bad ensconced
themselves in the best bed, which
by r ght belonged to him, lie being
the eldest; and consummated a
plan to get even with them.
Some time otter midnight he was
deposited in Hollythorn, and
reaching his sisters house he
secuted around until he found a
way of entrance into the kitchen,
where he deposited his luggage
ana removed his boots. Then he
quietly stole up stairs and opened
the door of the best room. "Sure
enough" thought he, "my fine
chaps, You are in cloverw! For
there were not to be mistaken
signs of the room being occupied.
To think of coping with their
united strength by dragging them
forth was not practicable, but
there stood the pitcher of water,
aud he knew that a good dousing
with the icy fluid would bring them
out quick enough.
He lifted the pitcher, approached
the bed, raised it and suddenly
dashed the contents upon the
sleeper.
Such a torrent of screams as he
had never before heard rang
through the house, and before
Sam could collect his scattered
s,nses the door opened, and Hau-
nah, George and John rushed in,
clothed in scaDty apparel-Han-
nah with a brighten d look on her
face and u lamp in her hand. that
revealed the edtire scene.
There, sitting in bed, with her
hair dripping'like a mermaid, her
night.drcss deluged, her face color
less, and looking terror, vas the
young school-mistress; and there
was Sam, with the empty pitcher
in his hand, tue very picture of
inbecility, staring around like an
IDIOT at the havoc he had made.
Hannah, George and John instant
~ understood the situation; and
the latter, at the command OF
their sister, dragged Sam away
white she assisted the drenched
and terrified girl to dry clothing,
aud then took her to her own room
and bed, explaining, for the second
time, the mishaps of the night.
"I'll keep you with me, now,
my poor child" said she, though
with difficulty keeping back her
laughter. "Thosc boys are nicely
come up with, at any rate; and if
it wasn't for your being so terribly
frightened, and the way my best
bed has been used, I wouldn't care.
But you are safe now"
Hannah kissed her charge, and
went down to see the boys, who,
as soon as they were fairly shut in
the regions below, began to ap
preciate the joke; and now that
Sam was as deep in the mud as
they were in the mire, gave no
quarter.
"I'll be blamed if I know what
it MEANS" said Sam, looking in
confusion at his brothers, who
we're rolling and kicking in con.
vulsions of laughter.
"MeansY" said George, holding
his sides. at means that you
have stolen like q thief into Miss
Eva SANKEY'S bed-chamber, who is
a Young lady teacher boarding
here; and thinking it was your
humble servant and Johnny snug
in bed, you attempted To drown us
out and made a grand mistake.
How do you like it, 'Samr'
ii confess l see the point, hut I
can't see the joke. 1t is q most

once turned out. In the case Of Doorkeeper
FiHhugh, the Republican, need not worry II.
self overmuch. The Democratic House Will
attend to his case, and see justice done II
he is unfit for his place, he will nave to go.
The trouble with the Republican party IS
that it upholds and defends its rascals, and
does its very utmost to keep them in ofhce
after their misdeeds are exposed. When they
leave, they generally take with them ceili-
ficate of good character from the President
That some of them have fonud their way 10
the penitentlary, IN spite of the utmost efforts
of their party, and of the President h'mseli,
is due to the vigor and virtue of the laws
given us by our forefathers--l laws when are
sound enough to triumph in the end over Or
ganized corruption in The highest places
Absolute and Radical Reform in the ADMIN
istration of the Government Is inc ISSUE.
With a candidate so identified IN MS pas,
record with practical reform rs 20 cohinahu
the confidence of both parties rs to his future
course, we shall find men Ike Carl Shurz'
William Cullen Bryant, and Geo. william
Curtis, and their followers in the Republican
party, voting the Democratic ticket. Party
lines were never more loosely drawn; and the
nominee most thoroughly identified with
Honest Administration Of Government Will
be the next President.

Thomas S. Bowen, a wellknown lawyer OF
this city, died at his residence in East Ottawa,
on last Monday at the age Of 80 or 81 years, after
a short Illness.
Mr. Bowen was born in this county, near Sere-
ia, where he lived till the breaking out of the
rebellion, when. at the age of IS or 10 years, he
volunteered and joined the army. He served
through the war, participating in several severe
engagements and receiving numerous wounds.
At Missionary Ridge his arm WAS shattered and
he lost it. After the war he spent short time
in school at Knox college, Gales0urg, and after
wards term or so in the Ann Arbor Law School,
Leaving school, he entered the office OF Dlckcy
Rice & Lewis, where he studied law until he
was admitted, when he formed partnership
with Mr.. Shepherd From % to go lie was
County Treasurer, since when he has been prac.
ticing law in our courts. lie was man of fine
legal mind and good attachments both in the
law and in miscellaneous literature; man OF
iovIal dispersion, witty and fond of a joke; had
a kind heart, was very sympathetic with those in
trouble and would spend his last cent to aid
friend, or run his legs of" to accommodate al
most any man.
As is too common, alas with our big hearted
and best men, poor Bowen's generous, conviyial
nature led him into habits OF drinking which
doubtless had much to do in fastening his death,
and his case is full of solemn warning to many
excellent young men whom one can see daily
starting carelessly on the same dangerous road
He was buried from his residence on Wednes-
day afternoon, and was followed to the grave by
many friends the legal fraternity being repre-
scented by many on foot On Saturday next, be-
fore the opening Of the June term of the Circuit
Court, resolutions of respect to his memory will
be offered before an adjourned meeting of the
I bar.

Since our Mayor has shut down on liquor sell
Ing on Sunday in town, our old fellows, finding
it terribly dry here Of u Sunday, are in the habit
Of going west" to the Prairie Grocery" and
the brewery just beyond, and making day of it,
1t is said that on last Sunday there was not a
little drinking done there and considerable row
dyIsm manifested, and we understand that the
mayor, in his capacity as supervisor, is about to
" step on them" under the state laws. Possibly,
if the guests wish to escape being hauled up as
witnesses, they had better steer clear OF the
above named resorts in the future.

Turkey.

The murder of foreign consuls at Salonlca
by fanatical AIohammedans, mentioned IN our
last, created immense excitement throughout
Turkey and both at Salonica and CONSTANT
nople the Christians stood in great dread of a
general massacre. On the strong representa-
tions of the representatives of the great pow
ers at Constantinople, however, the porte eX
pressed its deep regret at the occurrence at
Salonica, and gave assurance thatthere should
be no repetition and that the guilty persons
should be punished, Since then "a arrests
have been made, and there have been II exc
cutions of rioters Meantime French squad
ron of vessels, 81 guns and 1900 men, and a
German squadron of six war vessels and 1900
men, with couple OF English men OF war
are anchored opposite Salonica TO protect the
Christians, while Russian feet is ready to
pounce upon Constaninople.
1t is denied that the American consul was
in Salonica at all at the time Of the rescue OF
the Christian girl from the Mohammedans,
but that his carriage was used without his
knowledge to convey him from the mosque.
