The Green Bay Globe has this tc
say OF Otto Shpltz, to which we add
our amen"
Among our callers this week we are
pleased to mention one from cur old
friend Mr.. Otto Shultz, of Grand
Rapids. lie is the same good fellow
as when he used to be a Green Bay
boy, he was leading comedian in the
Iron Clads. F" though more dignifed,
and portly, and handsome, ard mar
ried, and so forth. In fact hs is one
of the leading business men of Grand
Rapids and prominence is stamped on
his being.
Struck by lightning. The
hotel of 10. Tonguea at Mosinee was
struck by lightning last Saturday
night, and two men quite severely
burned. The men were sleeping to-
gether when the bolt struck the house,
the electricity passing down the bodies
of both, setting the bed on fire, Both
were stunned but the fire in the bed
seemed to act as a counter irritant at
least che Of them recovered sufficiently
to call for help, and both were rescued
from the burning clothing, but not un-
til after they had been quite severely
scorched. They passed down the Val
ley road on their way home, Monday.
We are informed that their limbs
will have 30 be amputated.

Disasters to the Russian Army.

The report is fully confirmed that
the Russians, after terrible battle
lasting over two days, were disastrous
ly defeated at Plevns, the army flying
in panic across the Danube The
Russian casualties killed and wound
ed-are reported at about 10000.
The Turkish losses are not given 1t
is evident that the Russian army oper-
ations in Turkey have received a very
serious check, and the great object of
interest now is that portion of the in
vading army which is operating soath
of the Balkan Mountains, 1t being in
eminent danger Of having its retreat
and its source Of supplies permanently
cut off. 1t is announced however tina
the Russian authorities are extremely
active in forwarding reinforceme nts
southwark, with evident object of
protecting the rear Of the advanced
force south of the Balkans. In the
meantime an army of $4,000 Rouman-
ians is reported to be now co operating
with the Russians

Peace Rumors-
LONDON, May 3O.-The semi.officisl
Provincial Correspondence Of Berlin, TO.
day publishes an article, which, in the
light of the recent peace rumors from
Bucharest, is significant. The article
concludes thus: The efforts of the Ger
man policy, which after the last
war found expression and firm
basis in the alliance of the three empsr-
ors have proved also, in the present
grave crisis, to be . guarantee for pacific
mediation reaching far beyosd that mar
rover allowance. Notwithstanding the
outbreak of the Russo-Turklsh war, the
prospects Of the preservation OF peace In
Europe have, in the last few weeks,
rather increased than diminished. Ger
many's policy has an honorable share in
this.
LoSDJN, May 30-A special from
Vienna to the Daily Telegraph says: 1t
is rumo.ed here that the present Aus
trisn minister OF war is about 10 be e.
placed by Herr A. Moiinsry, governor OF

respondence special from Constsntinople
says: The Porte, IN order TO justify nu-
merous arrests, has informed the dipl2-
matte representatives here that con.
spiracy for the overthrow Of the dynasty

Portes only object is the removal of the
psrtlsans of Midhst Psshs, who are
openly sgitating his recall.

EFFECT OF DEMOCRATIC RE-
TRENCHMENT.

The effect of cutting down appropris-
tions by the last Congress has done more
to expose Grantism and strip the cloak
from Q multitude of Radical abuses than
could have been accomplished by any
other measure. 1t has been better
than legion of Congressional
Investigating committees. Cut off the
funds and you starve to death
all the private little schemes for
party patronage that have derived nour-
ishment from the national treasury for
the last eight years. They don't need to
be Investigated. The honey Is exhausted,
and they abandon the comb. Some of
them die and make no sign, but others
again are making noise, much to the
chagrin of the Republican household.
A great hue and cry has been raised
by the Radical press over what they are
pleased to term the defeliction of the
Democratic Congress to provide for run
ming the government. But the Demo
cratic Congress simply stopped when it
had provided for the legitimate expenses
of the government, and failed only to
provide for the perquisits and stealings
of super6uous offices and officeholders.
The most glaring instance of
Radical extravaganza which the
cutting down process has unroofed, was
found In the Engraving and Printing
Bureau of the Treasury Department.
Uader the GRANT administration nearly
1000 clerks were on the pay roll OF this
department. Now, however, the force
has been reduced to 400 nominating
the slight difference Of l,600 men
which are found amply sufficient to do
the work, and it is even said that 100 Of
the 400 retained are superauous and most
of the time idle Tor want Of work.
This is only one instance of the eceno
mical effect on the running expenses,
when Democratic Congress holds the
purse for Republican Administration.
A Topping of of few hundred deputy
United States Marshall will enable the
United States Courts to run through the
year, without further appropriation.
And 80 with all the other departments OF
the government service. Nothing is so
sslutary and effective as lesson of econ
omy as to limit the funds.

Terrible Accident.

WASHINGTON, May SC.-A terrible
