-. Last evening a little son of Ir. T.
Oswald, of this village, while playing
with his companions upon the ice on the
river, just back of his fathers shop, fell
into the water and would have drowned
had not Mr. Oswald, who was at work
in his shop, heard the outcry OF the
boys companions, and looked out in
time to see his son sink out of sight. He
Immediately rushed to the spot and
plunged in after the boy; and he was
not an instant too soon, for the current
was just about to carry him under the
ice. After getting the boy, it was with
considerable difficulty that the father
gained the shore, as the ice would give
way when he attempted TO lift himself
upon it. Fortunately there were others
near, or neither father nor son would
have reached the shore. A long pole
was reached him which he grasped, and
was drawn to land. The boy was en-
tirely unconscious when taken ont, and
Mr.. Oswald considerably chilled. A
lad by the name of Neumann, who work
in the pail factory, had one the fingers
of his left hand taken entirely off, by g
circular saw, lastSaturday. The wound
was dressed by DR.. Croker. Charles
Dietrich, one OF the employees at the
chair factory had the pulse artery of his
wrist severed last Friday night, by acct
dentally running his arm through pane
of glass, while endeavoring to close n
window. DIR. Oswald was immediately
summoned, bHt the poor fellow nearly
bled to death before his arrival,

A PETITION is being circulated in town
asking the legislature for an act compel
ling the Wisconsin Cetral Railroad Co.
to relay its track between Appleton and
Menasha. The of-haud way in which
the puritanical biatherskite element now
running the Wisconsin Central, has time
and again overridden and overreached
the interests Of the people along their
line of roads, is a species OF outrage that
ought to have been stopped long since;
we Gle by tight CT law entitled to a con-
nection with the Wis. Central through
our Western road, and there is no OK,
cuse for letting these eastern skin-hints
sneak out Of their obligations. Let ev-
cry citizen affix his signature to the Pc
tition, and our delegation in the legi:5ia-
ture see to it that the law is passed,
There must be an end to ali tomfoolery
with these railroad nlagnates, and an ef-
fort to hold them strictly to a coascien-
tious fulilment OF their obligations.

III is seldom ihat we find as much

For want of space we are compelled
to crowd out an Interesting paper en1an-
ating from the graceful pen of Miss AL
ice P. Canright, entitled ''Stray Thoughts
or Plea for the Girls and Boys" read
before our Teachers association at it's
recent session. Miss Canright, though
one of our youngest teachers, ranks high
in her profession, and in her paper gives
evidence Of well-t-ained mind, touch
ing indirectly upon some Of the essential
qualities that are OF prime importance in
the make up of good teacher Aside
from thorough knowledge of all
branches to be taught, and the happy
faculty of imparting Information to pu-
pills, a teacher ought to be thorough
reader of human nature, competent Of
taking apart the character of child as
readily as q clock-lnaker takes time
piece, puts its mechanism into proper
shape, and haaoa0s it will obey the skill
full hand OF it's adjuster. The best teach
Ell is one who, while among children, is
himself a child person to whom the
memory of manhood and womanhood re-
turns in after years. and while conjuring
the loved scenes OF childhood, of home,
and all its sweet surroundings, steps in
to complete picture that is in.periBh-
able. a teacher that cannot command
both the respect and affections ola child
is rot a teacher, though he holds certifi-
Gates Of competency from every univer-
sity in the world.
We commend Miss Canright's paper,
which will be found iii our next issue, TO
a careful reading. It contains much
worth ponderiug on Of equal value to
both parents and teachers.

atoms here, will make due allowance for
an overapplication of coloring seeing the

extend al ManltOwoc, under the name
of ]. d. Bush. On the occasion of the
robbery CT harness shop in that city,
he found it convenient to take trip to
this city with box OF household goods,
but he was suspected of connection with
the burglary, and was arrested as the
boat tonched at Sheboygan. The sheriff
Of Manitowoc had teiegraphed to the
Sheriff of Sheboygan, and the latter
was in waiting at the pier when the
steamer landed. Bush was collared
without ceremony, and the box over
hauled to ascertain whether it contained
the stolen goods. The officers found
fifteen new harnesses carefully packed,
and this was deemed sufcient.to connect
him with the robbery, either as princi-
pei OF an accomplice. He was taken
back, but, through sharp practice of $50
after incarceration in the jail for a long
period of time on account Of the laws de-
lay. While in jail there, the turk eys
