REVENUE VIoLATIoNs.-The following
| from the Fond du Lac Commonwealth
| is interesting, as showing how easily
one may get into trouble without having
any intention of violating the revenue
laws: The Commonwealth says: OsA-
kosh has case of violation of the In
| ternal Revenue laws which, when brought
| to trial, will decide some very particular
questions. The case is simply this: A
teamster in the employ of the Insane
Hospital management was discovered
by Revenue collector III possession of
several empty tobacco pals, and was az
rested. In following up the case it was
acertained that the pals had been sent
by rail to the Hospital filled with eggs
By one Kimball, a grocer, and that the
teamster was merely returning them to
him. The law in reference to stamping
packages of tobacco is, that the stamp
affixed by the manufacturer must be
cancelled by him by wave lines made
with stencil; that lie must also write
plainly upon blank, purposely left on
the stump the day and date of such can
collation.. When the package is used
by the consumer and becomes empty
the law requires such consumer to to-
tally destroy the stamp thereon. There
are heavy penalties for neglecting to do
this and there are also penalties for pos
sessing, conveying or carrying empty
packages upon which the stamps have
been totally obliterated. Under this
law, therefore, it is not at all unlikely
that a prosecution will be commenced
against the grocer, who owned the pals,
and also against the Chicago & North
western railroad company who conveyed
them from Oshkosh to the Hospital.
Although this, perhaps an everyday
transaction, the law is very explicit on
the point and may be damage to those
interested, though they are innocent of
any Intentional wrong. The Revenue
law also requires, and this may be of
interest to smokers, that when box of
cigars is empty the stamps shall be to-
tally destroyed, or rubbed off the box,
and any one who has an empty cigar
box lying around his premises with the
stamps intact is liable to prosecution.
The stamps must not be rubbed off
while any cigars remain in the box, but
the moment that it is empty off they
must come.

Mr.. @. S. CANRIGHT, an insurance
agent, at Manitowoc, met with serious
accident yesterday. MIR. Kilgore, on
his trip North from this place to Bailey's
Harbor yesterday morning, found Mr..
Canright, this side of Jacksonport, lying
against stump insensible. Mr. K
picked Mr. g, up,and brought him back
to Mr.. Michael Mahony's place-about
10 miles from this plece-aud engaged
Mr.. Mahoney to bring the injured gen
tleman to this village. At about $50 P.
81. Mr.. M. arrived at the drug store in
this village with Mr.. Canright, where
upon Mr.. C's. bruises were dressed
Upon examination, ii was found that
not only the left side of Mr.. C's. face
was badly bruised, but that the bridge
of his nose was broken, and probably
other injuries inflicted. Up to this
writing Thursday e. NJ Mr.. Canright
has not been in his right mind since the
accident happened-though somewhat
rational when first taken to the drug
store, lac WIS soon again laboring under
a deranged mild. as yet nothing is
definite as to how the accident happen
ed, but Il is supposed that his horse ran
away, throwing him from his blackboard
against the stump where he was found,
by Mr.. Kilgore. Mr.. Canright was on
his wey from Bailey's Harbor to this
place when the ssoi9srt happened.
His horse was brought to this village,
but the blackboard was left on the way
side, We presume in demolished con-
dition.-Stuyeo,a Boy EGposttor.
Mr.. Canright returned to his home
in this city on Monday. He is severely
but not seriously injured, and his many
friends hope to see him fully restored
in a short time,

LAST TUESDAY NIGHT, about twenty
five members of the Manitowoc Temple
of Honor visited Two Rivers and insti-
tuted a Temple there. The order starts
there with sixteen charter members, and
a very fattering future. The members
are composed of the very best young
men in the place, and we bespeak for
them great success. The Temple was
instituted by G.. W. Deputy Burnet,
assisted by the officers of Manitowoc
Temple. After the work of instituting
was over, bountifuI repast was prepar-
ed at the Lake House, for the Mani
towoc brethren, to which they did COM
plete justice. The W. J. of the Mani
towoc Temple was also present and as
sisted in the good work.

MEME CORRESPoNDENCE.
MEEsE Feb. IL, 1878.

| Not long since, Mr.. John Barthal of the
| town of Centeryille, encouraged by the
success of his neighbor Mr. Muel-
Ter, hired some men to dig a well for
him. When the men had reached the
depth OF about twenty feet, they were
terrified by hearing loud subterranean
noises, resembling, they said, the roar
ing OF cataract. The men got out of
the well as quickly, as possible and moth
ing could induce them to enter it again.
At the fifth meeting of the Meeme
Teachers Association, which was held
last Saturday in the school-housa near
Mulholiand's, the following teachers
were present: j. W. Finch, NJ V.
Sullivan, W. Mulholland, Frank Clarey,
O. S. Brown, P. E. Maggie, Tbos. Gal
logly, P. e. Martin, Susan Danforth,
JAS. Finnegan, James Richardson. The
only lady teacher who was present had
to walk twelve miles, in order to reach
the place of meeting It would be well
perhaps if some male teachers were in
spired with like enthusiasm for self
improvement.
At the evening session, the debate on
the question: Resotoed, That circumstan-
ces make great men, was listened to by
an audience numbering about one hun
dred. As usual, Mr.. Carey was too
much for his opponents, and the judges
decided in his favor by a vote of two to
one. The speakers were: on the affima-
tive, Mr.. Carey and P. Fl. Martin ;cn the
negative P. E. Maggie and o. S. Brown.
There were rumors in the air last
week that we were to have new post
Office at this place to be called Osman:
of course the people rejoiced and were
all ready to hurrah for Hayes and Os-
man. But now it seems that some one
has caused the matter to be reconsider
ed, and that our hopes are doomed to
disappointment. There is probably no
place in the state that has poorer mail
accommodations than Meme; why this
is SO, is beyond the comprehension of
every one except God and the men who
have the management of our mail az
rangements. Our mail matter from
Manitowoc, including the county papers,
goes south twenty-five miles by rail,
and then returns fifteen miles by stage;
and yet our post-ofice is within seven
miles of a railroad station which receives
a daily mail. If all of Uncle Sans af
fairs are conducted on such upbusiness-
like principles, it cannot be wondered
at that the old gentleman is anxious to
feel little money in his own pocket,
even though it should be soft money.
