THE RUssIA-TURK WAR.

We print in this paper an editorial
from the Inter-Ocean speaking OF the
significance of the battle Of Pleyna and
giving the then state of the war. This
is better and more definite than any
thing we could write. The Russians
with one corps were defeated at
PleYna with a reported loss of 5000,
and retreated to or across the Danube.
1t is reported that they have retaken
Plevna. The Russians south Of the
Balkans have retired from the Roume-
liza plains to the mountain passes at
Schipka and Denur-Kapu.
1t has been reported that the Rus
slams have been defeated at Tirnoya
with a loss Of $4,000, but the report has
not yet been confirmed.
1t is now a critical time in the cam
paign and no one can see what will
Immediately or remotely be.

ABUSING POsTMAsTERs.-W While we
approve Of the order Of the President
for the withdrawal of the officers of
the General Government from the
management OF caucuses and elections,
we do not find it necessary nor think
it fair to fan to abusing postmasters so
reckIessly,as the Sentinel has done. 1t
is undoubtedly true that without the
cooperation and active labor of the
postmasteFs, in the. last campaign, Mr..
Hayes could not have carried Wiscon-
sin, to say nothing of other States.
And if the Republican party had lost
Wisconsin, there would now be no
Republican post1aasters for the Se9ati
mel OF amy other paper to- abuse, the
offices would all be filled with extreme
Democrats. Looking at the matter in
this light, we think it is about time to
let the postmasters alone-at ali events,
till some of them clearly disobey the
order of the Government. -MjZ2U0ukee

Aesnper Halliday Scholars.

At meeting Of the Board Of Trus-
tees held on the Sd, on the recommends
ton Of the Rector, the tuition fee for
Day Scholars was reduced from 800
to $50 per year. The extras same as
for boarders.
The following gentlemen have been
elected to act as the Executive Conn
mittee for the next school year:
Mr.. J. A. Helfenstein, E. K. Hub
hard, and Dr.. Jas. DeKoven.
The tuition fee has been reduced to
thelowest terms practicable in order to
increase if possible our day patronage.
During the past six years Kemper
Hall, one way or another, has drawn
a great deal Of interest to Kenosha, and
distributed, directly and indirectly,
over one hundred thousand dollars
among it's business people and mechan-
les. We have always felt much disap-
pointed at our limited city patronage,
never averaging over s or 10
pupils. The terms have been per-
haps too high for some Of our
friends who otherwise would have
sent to us. TO remove therefore
this objection, the trustees cheerfully
consented to the reduction referred to.
Ournext session viii open Thursday
September 9Th. The day scholars will
report Friday, A. NJ. at o'clock.

Prof ID. Ii. Flett,of KenOSha. Super
intendent of Schools for said county,
and editor Of the Educational Depart
ment of the Telegraph, has been en-
plOyed to take charge Of the school at
this place. From admitted acquaintance
with the Professor, we judge that he
will give satisfaction as Principal of
our school, W0zaOortb County I92de-
pendent.
From the above it will be seen that
Kenosha County, is about to lose their
able and excellent Superintendent, and
The people 9 highly esteemed citizen
and scholar. Prof Flett took charge
Of the educational interests Of this
county, as its Superintendent in Sept.
1875. The schools Of this county
under his able management, have been
brought up to high educational, and
moral standard By strict and impair
tal examinations, the districts have
been able to secure the services OF q
better class Of teachers, thereby great
ly advancing the educational interests
Of this county, to the great satisfaction
Of the people. His personal interest
taken in school houses and grounds.
has in q great measure produced a
remodeling and repairing, and, at the
present time, thanks to his untiring
efforts, they are in q very good condi-
lion, making them q pleasant resort
for children and an honor to the peO-
pie of the district. His efforts in this
and other educational matters, were SO
marked and highly appreciated by the
people of this county, that the County
Board of Supervisors at their Annual
Session in November last, unanimous
ly and unsolicited by any one, voted to
him. the sum Of one hundred dollars in
gratitude for the faithful and satisfac-
tory manner in which he had discharg-
ed the duties of his Office.
The Prof. has also introduced com
plete set of record books for the use OF
the Office, giving q complete history of
every transaction, which will be an
indispensable record for future refer
ence, and therefore, a much needed
improvement. BY his straight forward
and independent course the Prof. has
made hosts of friends, not only with
the educational men of our county,
but throughout our State he is looked
upon as an able educator, and in oul
loss, the people of Elkhorn will be the
gamers.

THE OLD OF THREE MILES.

We take the following from an arti-
Gle in the Onondaga Gazette, published
at Baldwinsville, Onondaga Co., n. Y,
July Goth. We are we'll acquainted
with the writer, Orris Barnes, and can
vOuch for his truthfulness. Over
thirty years ago we knew the most of
those whose names and ages are given.
And we remember well the little vii
lage and street. We think there can
not be more than from twelve to TWEEN
ty houses on that street in the village.
Commencing at the bridge the street
runs east through the village-New
Bridge-to Euclid, all in the town of
Clay. Out of cities, we think Mr..
Barnes is safe in his challenge-and
perhaps in them.
The following list shows a greater
number of old people within the dis
lance Of three miles on one street, than
can be found in the County OF Onon-
daga. I challenge any one to beat it.
This list includes all within our little
village, except one, who keeps his age
a secret, to Hosea CrandalPs, which
makes the distance less than three
miles. The aggregate of their ages
amount to one thousand, three hundred

BKlSlUL.
The GOODNESS Of the evening has com
PEELED me to retreat from nay favorite
study, (high chair and ironing boarO
to the more congenial cline Of Kitchen
Istoye, while I attempt a description Of
things seen and heard during the past
week.
With farmers in this Vicinity, the
haying season is nearly over, and al
ready the reapers have commenced
their march DER the fields Of ''goBden
grain. The harvesteEs work with
might and main that they may SC
compiish their task in time for the har-
vest picnics and jubilees that usually
occur after their work is done. Whsle
sportsman and student are spending
the heated season in camping and rus
ticating among the lakes and meath the
shades, the farmer is busiest with his
work: but when come
''The Melancholy days
The saddest of the year,
then is his time for mirth and festiyitY.
Business is quite brisk, yet we hear
many complain Of the 'hard times"
Several car loads of wool have been
shipped from Bristol since shearing.
Some farmers who Gid not sell before
the decline, are still keeping their wool
with hope Of higher prices. A car
load Of hogs was shipped from here
this week. Though Bristol has no lakes
to attract pleasure-seekers, it boasts of
soda springs, where we yet expect to
see one of the greatest resorts Of the
county ; and judging by those who
daily take and leave the cars at this
station I should say that the people
here are noted for hospitality. Within
the last month the arrivals at Bristol
have been numerous; among which
aHe Mrs Cook, of St. Louis, visiting
relatives; Mrs. Cross, Of New Lenox,
ILL.,, visiting a daughter; Mrs. Gilmore
and daughter, Of Madison; and Mrs.
Farrar and son, Of Shell Rock, Iowa,
visiting their parents and grand pa
rents, Col. Thorp and wife. Mr.. Lacy's
house is the recipient Of two young
ladies from Chicago. Miss Minnie Car
penter, schoolgirl from Evanston,
has been spending week with sis
ter. Rev. G.. E. Carpenter, pastor at
Palmyra, with his mother and two lit
tie girls has been visiting friends here.
Mrs. Ladd, one of the first settlers i'll
this vicinity and one Of the oldest in
habitants of Bristol, who moved away
last fall, has been spending few weeks
among old friends and neighbors. Mrs.
Human, former resident here, now
residing at Oshkosh, is visiting her pa
rents and sister who live in the South
part Of the town.
Silas Smith and family left their old
home in Bristol last week, for a new
home in Kansas, where they go to re-
cuperate, hoping to find the greatest
boon Of mankind, the ELIXIR Of life.
May their most sanguine expectations
be realized.

and departures but fearing | encroach

For few weeks, the mortality
among sheep, from some unknown
reason, has been and is increasing to
an alarming extent.
Determined to find out the cause of
their death, I made several post NOR
tens, Immediately after they vera de-
funct, and found the bronchial tubes
and their minute qualifications, OBJ
structed with small white worms
about the size of a horse hair, body
four to six inches il length, and
head and tail as fire as the poiat of a
cambria needle. They were quite
lively when put IN warm water, but
died in less than an hour after removal
from the lungs. Could not find them
in any other organ or part of the
body.
There is nothing Of the kind men
toned in compiled works on diseases
of the sheep and so far as can learn,
is news to all grangers.
Now if you can throw light on this
subjects, it will be most gratefully re-
ceived by many readers of the Keno
sha Telegraph" Truly Yours,
Will. NJ. FARR.
Since writing the above, / have
found smaller worms Of the same
kind in the pond from which the
sheep drink.

cine, Kenosha, and Walworth Cap.

AMONG THE GsRAGS.

In beautiful patlsr with flowers besprent.
JaInte and Fannie together went,
Hand in hand, through sylvan way
Where song birds sang, on a glorious day.
Gally they chatted OF love and flowers
While rapidly fed the golden hours,
sui oA Shey went up the mountain marge
CuliIng wild roses bright and large,
Unheedmg the distance they had gone
Gathering flowers, still onward and on.
TIL, reaehing at last the rough-heWn edge
OF 8 gorge and an overhanging ledge,
with rosk beyond. To this huge mass
Led narrow cauSeWay, one might pass
Whose brain was skilled tor a dizzy walk.
And downward look like kite'or hawk.
And there en- the rock in sweet repose
Cleaned in the sunlight q great red rose
Which Fannie saw, and stretched her hand
To garner it into the floral band
Which envirSned her shoulders white and far,
And tWined with the gold of her tangled hair.
Her eye was fixed on the charming flower
And the wish to Gull it, gave her power
10 dare the dangers that lay between
The maiden fair and the Wildwood queen

She crossed the narrow bridge that spanleed
The rifted chasm 'tWixt rock aud land,
AND graSped in transport the red rose grand

And inhaled with joy its rich perfume,
fhen fastened upon her throbbing breast
The rose she'd an hundred times caressed.
But, when she turned in joyous pride

Fell on her soul like bolt of light
From riyen cloud in a darkling sky
When thunder storm goes crashing by.

Ard she sank on the rock with sstartled cry.
Her throbbinS heart, like wounded bird
Grew still, SO still,, it scarcely stirred,
In hertloyer's arms sweet Fannie Law
While her life seemed ebbing fast AWAY.
Seeing the peril wherein they stood,
With few bold words imbued with good,
