SUICIDE.

Philip Schaefer, who last spring was
committed to the county Jail, to await
trial for adultery, was last Thursday
night found dead in the woods in the
town of Cato near the Pine Grove Saloon.
He was not kept kept closely confined in
the Jail and made his escape some days
before his death. He called at the saloon
near which his body was found, treated
number OF persons who were present,
babe them good bye and said they would
never see them again. His body was in
an advanced stage of decomposition
when found. In his pocket was found a
quantity Of Paris Green and there can be
no doubt that his death was premeditated
by him and resulted from taking the
poison with which he had supplied him
self. There were 10 marks of violence
about his person except on the breast
from which the clothes were torn. This
was doubtless done while in the agony of
death. He was buried at the Branch on
Saturday. The girl Y it'll whom he had
criminal intercourse lives at Two Rivers
and was fully rs guilty as he. In fact,
the law was too stern in poor Schaeffer's
case, and his suicide shows that he keenly
felt the shame which came from his sin

A question that puzzles the best math-
ematicians here is this: A and b part
ners, play against G and d partners also,
for twenty cents a game. They play
eleven games of which A and B lose
seven, and c and d four. Only eighty
cents, however, are expended in drinks.
What proportion or how much of this
should each side pay? The question
it seems, is difficult one, not even the
graduates OF the Normal Schools being
able to satisfactorily solve it. Won't
some one come to their relief and give
the solution.

A MAN named Ollinger living in the
town of Manitowoc was quite severely
injured by a bull on Friday last. He
was in the stall placing hay in the crib,
when he was attacked by the bull. One
horn entered his thigh just back of the
knee joint and tore its way almost the
entire length of the thigh bone; the cash
extends clear to the bone. Fortunately
the man was thrown over the crib out of
reach of the enraged animal. otherwise
he would undoubtedly have been killed.

The roads are crowded with school
teachers industriously seeking schools to
devour. In years past, they always
''took to the road the morning after
school meeting. but now they are tramp
ing in advance of that much watched
occasion. School clerks are absolutely
bothered with these paper collared ped
agogues who unblushingly importune and
beg the promise" of their schools.
When asked for certificates, they of
course have no license to produce, but
explain by stating that they attended the
S ate Normal School, got lots of diplo-
mas there for their exquisite standing"
probably at the foot of the Glass; and
that it will be no trouble whatever, to
get licenses to teach at the coming exam
ination. The clerk of course, makes no
promises, but in his heart of hearts, he
wishes that yellow jack would strike
these wandering school masters dead, or
that he was In the bottom of the sea, ere
he was sworn in to his digniied aud
position.
