If you think that John Turner Of
the Mansion Star is no adept in Script
ure, just read the following and disa-
buse your mind of any such erroneous
idea.
He was gong to Sing Sing for bur
glary, was William Tracy, and, de-
string for chance to break out rather
than break in, he made dash from
the cars. The locomotive caught and
crushed his Les. The good surgeon
at the hospital reminded his poor pa
tent that he must die, ard begged to
know if he could do aught to save
him. There was a changed look in
the cuIprit's eyes. Perhaps he
thought Of long career of crime, and
at the eleventh hour felt the saving
grace of repentance, There was a
sad tremor in his voice as he said:
Eyes, get me an eighteen-inch jimmy
The police took mine from me. [
seould like to die with one in my
hand. 'Ah! we'll Who knows!
Rhere may be more JOY in heaven
over the return Of the return of one
crocksman with a jimmy than over the
ninety and nine regularly supplied
with latch-keys. If the gates were
not ajar when the noble spirit of the
dead Tracey took his flight, what mat
ter? Was he not armed with Jimmy
prepared as the scriptures command to
batter down the walls Of paradise?
Farewell, noblO Tracy. Nor steel, nor
poison, malice domestic. foreign levy,
Jimmie jams, nausht can trouble you
further.

Col. RoBT. Ingersell, who was
once famous, and is now notorious,
will leave Peoria, and take up his resi-
dence in Washington. where he thinks
there is better field for the practice
of law. During few brief weeks in
the fall of 1876 Col Ingersoll became
the most conspicuous figure in Ameri-
can politics, and made himself famous
in all that that word implies. Since
that time he has crowded himself be-
fore the public as reviler of all that
is sacred, repudiator of God and
the Bible. The public have come to
regard him with pity, and to be
shocked at his brutality. Few persons
become so abandoned, so robbed of ma
tive instinct as not to revolt at the idea
of Goddess world. Mr.. Ingersoll
has achieved notorie,y, but at sacri-
fee Of put lie respect.

GRAND RAPIDS, March II, 1873.

EDITOR REPORTER In the RE,
PORTER, issued March 18th, is the fol,
lowing statement:
"A call is out for Judge Park to
become candidate for reelection as
Circuit Judge, signed by all but four
lawyers in the circuit"
As this is subject to which you
have probably given no considerable
personal attention-relying doubtless
upon others for your information-it
would not be at all strange if you were
misinformed as to the fact. Your in
formant is certainly in error in this
matter. and [ therefore beg permission
to correct him.
There are residing in this county
twelve lawyers of this circuit, of
which number (unless | am misin-
formed) only three or four at most
have signed the "call."
And of the members of the bar in
other counties who have signed the
"call, some have no hesitation of ex-
pressing their dissatisfaction with G
l.. Park as Circuit Judge; but when
the call was presented to them fol
their signatures, they, believing there
would be no other candidate, did moi
refuse their names
Although it is quite probable that
no man will be FOUND in this circuit as
now constituted (capabIe of filling sat
isfactorily the posi5en), who woulc
give up lucrative practice to accep
the posltion-yet desire for a change
exists among a large number of tn,
members of the bar, and fairness de
mands that their numbers be not mis-
stated nor their motive misrepresentet
or misunderstood.
1t certainly is the opinion Of larg,
number of the members of the bar o
this circuit who try causes in the cir
cult court-whO have known G. J.
Park long and favorably as an abb,
and successful adyocatc-that as .
niSi prius Judge he is far from perfect
and any lawyer who believes this anc
fears or fails to express his opinion
when an opportunity is afforded him
merits the contempt Of both bench anc
bar.
While it is doubtful if suitable
person can he found who would accept
the position or be a candidate against
him, yet it is entirely proper to be
known that the members of the bar O
this circuit are by no means unanim
Gus in the call for his candidacy or il
the desire for his reelection
Yours respectfully,
HENRY HAYDEN.

COnnubiaI. - Mr.. Thomas Bell,
conductor on the Valley Boad, and
one of the best boys in the employ Of
the company, took unto himself an
helpmate, in the person of Miss Julia
Grace, last Friday. The ceremony
was performed at the residence of the
brides parents, by Rev. Mr.. Hager-
man, of Wausau. The twain left on
the evening train for Sparta, where
Mr.. Bells people reside. We ac-
knowledge supply of wedding cake,
and the office boys wore not forgotten
by the groom. We wish the newly
welded pair life of unalloyed hap
piness and abundant prosperity.
Thomas has a JcueL-ie-a prize worth
the winning, and we know that JeveLia
is equally blessed. May the little ones
all be Bellies of the family, and may
Thomas say Grace at least three times
a day.

Gospel Meetings. = The Gospel
meetings conducted by Mr. W. Z.
Lewis, representing the Young Men
Christian Association Of Wisconsin,
have been unusually well attended the
gpast week Mr.. Lewis came anon
us rather unexpectedly. his presence
not being looked for till the present
week, yet the united efforts of both
societies, working together as a unit,
have vouchsaied victory for Truth
hardly looked for in tie beginning.
Mr.. Lewis is an earnest man whose
whole soul IS in his work He pre-
sents the Gospel truths in go plain
light that they shine into mems hearts,
consequently his success has been most
excellent The afternoon meetings
have been large, while the churches
have been hardly able to accommodate
the crowds coming together in the
evening. The meetings are being con
tinued the present week with the
most favorable results Rev. r. NJ
Webster. IS expected to be present this
week, and will probably remain the
coming week.
The gity Election, VS. had little
room to say anything about the city
election, in orr last issue The work
was done with less surface excitement
than ever before, but down deep i'll
the souls Of those who wished for bet
ter things than we have been wont to
have in city government, there was an
undercurrent Of feeling that was
mighty if not OBSERVABLE There was
strong opposition to good men too =
but it was SO quiet that only close ex-
animation could detect a.y undne
earnestness.

1t has bssn suspected that the
Temple of Honor had much to do with
the result. So it had, but only in an
indirect way There was not a word,
so far as we know, said to a member
in relation to the casting Of the ~allot.
The Temple is supposed to work for
right, and man cannot be a consist
ent member if he does otherwise. Its
members undoubtedly voted with the
winning ticket, at least a majority of
them did, for that is soAat they are
here for-to battle against oppression,
that marches under the banner Of in
temperance, and we presume they did
the Temple troop fought nobly. One
might as reasonably expect the devil
to pray to God to put brass knobs on
his horns SO he couldn't hook a BODY.
as to expect pillar in the Temple to
work for the interests of something
with a stick in it," they are neither
constrained, pledged, nor bound to
work for, or with, any political party.
The boys of the Band sereladed the
officers elect about IL o'clock, but
none were treated--each had his horn
with him.
