CATo's FALLS, May %, 1877.

ED. REPUBLICAN Since our re-
port of last week we understand that
Mr.. Lee, of District No. s, is getting
better. Thoughts are entertained
that he may yet regain his sight.
We are told that DR.. McGui did
all he could to relieve the sufferer.
The Doctor has the reputation of be-
ing an earnest worker. Accounts
have been given of his success in
several different cases of a similar
kind. Mr.. l.. would have endured
less pain had he not taken cold in
going and returning.
My young friend of Rocky Glen"
in her Introductory, in last weeks is
sue of The REPUBLICAN, concern
ing the North Branch bridge, and
our friend Mr.. Wilson being discom-
NODDED in getting across to salt his
cattle, owing to the departure of the
bones and sinews of that old bridge,
brought to our minds the thought
that certainly our friends distress
must be great, for should it ever
come to pass that "Paling's'' would
conquer "rocks" and our friend w.
be on the river side and "Paling's"
compel him to give leg bail, and no
bridge be there, we fear poor Mr.. w.
would have to co ne down on his
courtly Blenders ia thing we hope he
is accustomed to doing,) and plead
for pardon.
We are but two little boys, whose
intellect does not extend far enough
to see very deep into the mysterious
unknown, but we hope that bridge
may soon be rebuilt or else our
friends w. and n. smoke the peace
pipe and drink friends.
Fishing in the "Big Dam" seems
to be the great source of pleasure in
the Ryan's Glades settlement. Not
long since Alex. Chisholm and sons
caught from the North Branch and
Difficult, two hundred and sixty
three trout in very short time. W.
B. White and sons, A. C. Biggs, w.
Wilson and s. Milhollen were all
very successful. But listen, we al
ways keep the best until the last; the
"Miller," bound for sport, started
early one Monday morning, with
less than a bushel of bait and eyes
"oh, how big" We are told that
when he dragged his weary limbs
back to the mill at late hour and
counted the effects of his labor it
amounted to four surprising MONS
tiers which averaged three inches in
length. He says the crawhsh, tad
poles, watersnakes and other little
plaques that inhabit the "Glade
Run" is surprising.
We remain,

COMMITTED FOR MURDER.
Last week we gave some account
of the probable fatal stabbing of Jno.
Condry by John Manion, above
Piedmont. The injured man died
on Saturday. Warrants of arrest
were issued by Justice Harrison for
John as well as Richard Manion-the
latter, it appears, being also implica-
ted in the fracas. Both the accused
were citizens of Maryland, and when
they learned that warrants for their
arrest were in the officers hands,
came over to Piedmont and gave
themselves up Saturday evening.
They were committed tc Jail toawait
hearing Monday. Part of two
days were consumed in taking testi-
mony, and on Tuesday evening the
Justices committed to jail for trial.
The evidence, we understand, was
somewhat conflicting, as might haye
been anticipated, in giving details of
a night brawl.-KeySer Tribune.
Mr.. John H. Kehlenbeck, died at
his residence nesr Corrigansville,
this county. at 10 p. M, last Friday,
aged "a years. Mr.. Kehlenbeck was
born in Baltimore, but spent thirty
years of his life in this city, carrying
on the business of a jeweler, which
he abandoned on account of i'll health
a year or more ago and removed to
the country. The funeral took place
yesterday afternoon from the Centre
street Methodist church, Of which
the deceased was a prominent and
much esteemed member.-C4n,6er-

Chicago, July 50.-But little trouble was
experienced this morning in resuming the
order of things prevailing before the labor
troubles. All the roads, except the Lake
Shore and the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy, have resumed both freight and pas
senger traffic The latter has been annoyed
by the racalcitrants at Burlington, who
refuse to allow business to go on. A con
siderable number of lumber showers struck
this morning, but have made no demonstra-
ton. The First Regiment returned from
Braidwood this morning, and will go to
Galesburg to-day to insure safety to the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy trains at
that point.

The Railway Age Of July 9Th contains q
sen.l5le article upon the reduction Of salaries
am JnE railroad employees. The Age however,
makes 10 remark about a reduction of div
idends among railroad owners Labor works
for wages and capital for profits. In depress
;ng times when employment is not readily
Obtained labor lowers its demand for wages
competition settles their average. But cap
ital fixed in railroad calls for the same old
fashioned dividends on the stock, and Is only
satisfied and serene upon semi annual
declaration of five per cent on the dollar.
There ought to I've an equitable division of
burdens between the employees and the
owners Of railroads. 1t is hardly the square
thing to cut tie salary OF an Office clerk ten
per cent on SIX hundred dollars, or the
wages Of brakeman ten per cent on tive
hundred dollars, or station agent thirty
dollars on three hundred dollars, i'll order that
old Mr.. Moneyb&ga III New 1ork or boston
OF PHILADELPHIA may -.,blo ten per cent
dividend on his ;ilrty or fifty thousand
TWENTY-FIVE cents on the dollar, and has paid
him ten per cent. on par for a dozen years
back Muscle and mind which operate and
preserve the railroads for the public conven-
fence should not take the whole burden of
hard times. Capital should come in for its
share, too, and set an example for labor by
taking lesser profits for itself, with the same
sweetness which it commends labor to exhibit
when its wages are shrunken at the rate OF
ten per cent. every six or twelve months.
Furthermore, while labor should economic
and lay up money for rainy day, and by no
means expend each year all the wages,
corporate capital, judiciously handled should
never declare and pay over to its owners as
dividends each year all its net earnings
Just as the laborer should economic and live
within his means, so should capital in rail |
roads economic in dividends and increase its |
outlay in batteries or repairs Many of the |
roads out of Chicago are now more than |
middle aged; and decaying bridges and rotten |
timbers OF various sorts along their lines are !
very plainly where, each year,
more and more money will be required to |
keep the property up in profitable condition.
Either dividends must decrease now or stock;
property, and mortgages upon the property, |
must decrease in value when the need repairs
IRE not made, and disasters on the road work
heir inevitable decline. Dividends must
,ome down with the wages, because money
las no better claim than muscle and mind
lave for far play and good pay, and no
,etter right to devour all of its profits each
ear than labor has to annually eat up all its
wages --Chic090 Times

THAT BOGUS QUARrER.-Two or three
weeks ago woman, who was never known to
board street car before, took a sect on q
Grand river avenue car and handed the con-
ductor bogus quarter He returned it and
she loudly protested that she was the last
person on earth who would have knowingly
carried counterfeit money in her pocket. Next
day she offered it to another conductor, and
when he returned it she exclaimed:
''Why, mercy on me but l was sure that
burned that bogus thing up last night %
Coming down town yesterday morning she
handed it out to the first conductor, who
tossed it out Of the car window and said
COT course you don't want to be arrested
for carrying bogus money around :"
Bogus Why is it possible that l didn't
throw that bad quarter away}"
She handed him a nickel, rode two blocks
further, and all of sudden left the car to
speak to a friend on the walk. When the
car went back the woman was walking in the
middle of the street, bent almost double, and
glancipg this way and that as if in search OF
some small object. She looked up, reeog.
nized him, and called out
Say, did any Of you Teller, find market
basket along here ?"

. vIGILANTE FINDS AN INTERNAL
MACHINE

The San Francisco Stock Exchange Of
Saturday relates the following
These are squally times, and people are
very careful how and where they travel.
Every able bodied man is supposed to carry
a navy revolver and Calling gun in his vest
pocket, and be on the alert for internal
machines. Last night, about II o'clock, q
detachment Of the Committee of Safety, in
the Western Addition, were dismissed for
the night and each man started off for home
One of these arrived safe, but on the threshold
he stumbled against singular looking box,
which had no business there that he knew Of
Instantly ten million thoughts danced through
his brain. Was it founding somebody was
trying to play on him; or new bonnet, sent
home to his spouse, or-and his hair stood
on ends and the cold presperation began to
Chinee, and he felt sure that it was only q
question of time when his house would be
blown to smithereens. He instantly sounded
the alarm and a couple of Committee men
fastened to rescue their imperilled comrade.
He explained the situation to his friend, and
they, too, concluded it must be device of
the enemy. A clothes line was procured, and
quietly, carefully and firmly secured around
the ominious dark looking box, and the
three, opening wide the gate, drew it noise
lessly through and upon and adjacent lot. A
long pole was secured, and from q safe
distance they pried open the lid, which flew
back with a dull thud There was no dis
charge, and on tip toe the three advanced to
see what was inside. Suddenly one of the
investigators exclaimed "Sold again! It's
only another of Towards water meters" The
owner of the house could only say, damn
Howard and water meters" as he hurried off
70 bed.

which are about as large as domestic hens of
the dunghill variety, though quite numerous
along the little Humboldt, are rarely seen IN
this vacinity.
