Jacob Ten Eyk, about seventy years
Of age, one OF The Oldest iphabitants of
Green County, who lived three miles
southwest oil Broadhead, met with hor-
rible death Sunday, September 3. The
last time he was seen alive was about 10
A. NJ, and it was supposed he had gone
across his pasture to his sons. Late in
the afternoon his daughter and her little
son went out on a search for him, when
the little boy discovered the hogs de-
vouring the remains. Alarm was given,
help called from the neighbors, and the
little that was left Of his body was gath
cred up. The arms and hands are miss
ing, most of the body destroyed, and the
balance horribly mutilated. He had a
large bull, which he had turned into the
pasture that morning for the first time
| for the season, with a rope in his nose
and pole attached. This animal was
apparently enraged when the remains
were discovered, and 1T was with diff.
Guilty and danger that he was secured.
1t is believed that he killed Mr.. T., and
then a sow and some young shoats,
which were In the pasture, deyoured
him as stated. Mr.. T. was man much
respected, and very quiet, good citi'
zen.

upon the question of Datiopal finances.
We hear men Of thought, men who
have heretofore held different financial
views to those advocated by Judge

great opportunities for studying and

be discouraged and dry up. 1t will

may cut off half leaf and throw it
into a tight box, where it can get Meth

leaf puts out its delicate roots all the

in a botauist's herbarium-the very
dryest and dulest place you ever did
