THE Darlington l'epudlican relates
an interesting forgery case, in brief,
thus: A Mr.. Kilkelly, who lives in
the town of Gratiot, had a son leave
home about five years ago. The fa-
ther had not heard from him since
his departure, till one day last Feb
ruary, when letter reached him from
Iowa, in which were earnest plead
ings for money to relieve him in time
of sickness, and help him home. The
letter being signed with the sons
name, Mr.. *. forwarded money or
der, and anxiously waited the prodi-
gals return, but in vain. Some three
weeks afterwards he received another
letter from his pretended son, stating
that he had sent the postoifice order
to be cashed by messenger, as he
was unable to leave his bed, who had
decamped with the money, and en-
treating his father again to send him
the means to reach home. Instead
of sending the money the second
time, the father went himself When
he arrived at the place, his surprise
was great on learning that his son
had not been there, but mad been
rersonated by younl man named
Doyle, who had receiged the letter
and cashed the none. order. The
forger had left howeve. for parts un-
known, and Mr.. Kilkelly returned
home somewhat rufIled. a few weeks
later the third letter me, this time
from Walworth, Wis, III pleading
for stamps" Then Mr. procurued
warrant for bis arrest, and sheriff
Helm started out in quest OF him.
For q time the young fellow evaded
pursuit, but finally detective skill
proved too much for him, and lac now
holds forth at the Dubuque Jail, wait
ins tIial for his serious ofrnsa.

of the training received at college he

MIR. EDITOR Our Chief of Police
was not afraid to do his duty last
Friday, and while no one is to be
specially commended for doing y
plain duty, one can but admire
man who is firm under trying cir
cumstances. And whisky caused all
the disturbance. CITIZEN.
Not having been in town on Fri
day we cannot speak from personal
knowledge Of what occurred on that
day but accepting general report
as correct, we should say the Chief
of Police could have earned further
fame, and the peace and dignity Of
the city might have been better pre-
served. The Mayor being present
during the disturbance, and Offering
no encouragement to the pedce Off
GERS to proceed further in making
arrests, is stated as an extenuating
circumstance in favor of those oih-
cers.--ED.

congregation dispersed they felt that
great lessons could be learned from
the doings of men in all situations.
This train of thought was farther
encouraged by the throngs of young
men and boys which lined the walk
just outside the church door. What
may not be learned from their ac-
ton And what has the judgment
day in store for them! Has the
Chief of Police no power to say to

A DAsTARDLY OUTRAGE. - On
Sunday evening, the 10th inst, as a
son and daughter of Chas. PAUL,
Esq, residing two miles north of
this village, were returning from the
days meeting at Standards Grove,
they were accosted on the road, when
about a quarter of mile this side of
Judge Wilson's, by a young man who
inquired where the Judge lived and
whether the enquirer could probably
get Accommodations there for the night.
The questions were answered civil
ly, and the Panlls were about to re-
sumo their course, when the young
man stepped to the rear of the bug
gy and threw an egg, striking Miss
PAUL on the forehead. This seemed
to be the signal to a party of some half
dozen confederates who were con-
cealed behind trees lining either
side OF the road, and forthwith ter
ritle onslaught with eggs was made
upon Mr.. and Miss PAUL, running
their clothing and bespattering the
buggy and horses in lrightful man
ner. The horses dashed wildly up
the hill, but beiug naturally of q gen.
tie disposition were brought under
control on reaching the top. The
shock to Miss Paull's nervous sys-
tenn was so great as to impair her
health ever since. Dodgec. Chronicle.
