n, Mackey,

DIR. Mackey, the grave robber OF
Beacon, Mahaska county, passed
through this city to-day enroute to
Osksloosa, in charge of the sheriff of
Mahaska county. The Doctor Is .
man probably about 81 years Of age,
and walks with crutch. His face is
covered with splotches and scales as
one recovering from an attack of the
small pox.
He was interviewed by COURIER
reporter, but as might be expected
nothing particularly new WAS disclos-
ed by him. In reply to the inquiry
as to whether he was not fearful Of
the result of his being taken to Oska-
loosa, he said that he thought there
wasno danger.
What is the matter with your face
doctor? Is it smallpox?
"That is what they call it, ! be-
lieve."
Is there anything that you would
wish to say that would put your case
in . better light doctor?
"No sir, nothing. l have already
had toe. much to do with reporters.
They are not given TO telling the
truth, and have given me away every
time"
The doctor did not seem at all socia-
BILE, and while ho;scemed very uneasy
nothing could be brought out that
would be in the least interesting. He
complained Of being tired and asked
his attendant to take him somewhere
so that he might be at rest.
The Sheriff took him off and we
suppose that was the last chance q
newspaper reporter will have at him
until his case is called in Oskaloosa
sometime soon.
Ills face is all covered with scales
and marks not unlike the smallpox,
produced, SO our Keokuk exchanges
say by drugs. His face is not q pleas
ing one and probably never was.
He was taken to Oskaloosa on the
Central and the case will probably be
heard of again very soon. In the
neighborbood Of Oskaloosa some
1000 or 1900 miners are employed
who have been terribly excited over
the robbery of the graves of friende,
the remains taken from, which were
shipped to Keokuk as pork barreled
up securely, and it is not known ex-
actly how the doctor will fare at their
hands. We hope nothing rash will
be done but that the law will be al
lowed to take its course, and yet the
penalty to be administered cannot be
too severe. no matter who admins
tiers it. We shall watch this case with
some interest, to find out whether the
sacred dead are to be allowed to sleep
in peace or whether graves are to be
rificd at pleasure by such ghouls as

THE friends of Mr. WADDELL, OF North

owing to certain manipulations set on foot
by SAN RANDALL. 1t will be remembered
that during the last session of Congress Mr..

as chairman Of the Committee on Post

turned to the next Congress he would use
his influence to defeat the reelection of Mr..

ONE Of the most gallant contests made in
the October aud November elections was
that made by tho Hon. CHARLES FOSTER in
the eighth Congressional district of Ohio
The fight, too in his district was made upon
the broad principles Of the Republican
party, and a gain Of thirty-dve hundred
votes to that party was the result. Mr., FUs-
TER was known everywhere throughout the
country to be the staunch personal and po-
ltical friend of President HAYES and II
warm supporter OF his Southern policy"

step becomes necessary as many Of tho cross
