WIFE MURDER.

The Latest Chicago Event of This Descrip-
tfon-W. s. Elicit, of st. Paul, Writes Let
tiers Which the Jealous Husband Secures.
Last Sunday night, at half-past nine, Peter
o. Stevens shot and fatally wounded his wife
on the street in Chicago He fred two shots,
one taking effect in her head and the other
in her right shoulder. Mrs. Stevens maiden
name was Mamie Young, and she is repre-
sented as bewitchingly beautiful. She was
married in 1875 at the age of Il years, her
husband being ten years her senior.
Chicago paper says they soon found
that married life had no charms for them,
the chief disturbance being her lively dis
position and cheerful temper coming into
collision with his wildness, and reckless,
morbid temperament. Within twelve
month they had become estranged. The
enbers still burned, however, and when
Stevens lost his position, and was compelled
to so to Cincinnati for work, she followed
him. Another separation ensued, and he
abandoned his position and followed her to
her mothers home in this city. Upon
April 18th, shortly after his return to this
city, he was arrested and fined 800 before
Justice Morrison, Mrs. Young swearing that
he had beaten and bruised his wife, that he
had threatened to shoot her, and that she
had wrested from him revolver, just as he
had cooked it and made ready to fire.
After he was arrested he gave the jailor a
package of letters. which he said proved his
wife's guilt.
among the letters were six from MI. w
S. Elicit, st. Paul boy and son of A. S.
Elicit, Esq, of this city.

PROFITS OF SHEEP.

E. NJ. Reese, OF Morgan county,
H.. writes to the Western Rural
the following account of his success
with a small flock of Cotswolds +: ]
usually have about forty breeding
ewes of the Cotswolds, and have at
weaving time from 40 to 30 lambs,
worth $40 per head, $3.50. My
sheep have averaged - pounds OF
wool for the last ten years; aver
age price for the same time 30 cents
per pound, SlG8. The eve lambs,
when they are yeail iugs past, turn
in with breeding ewes and Gull out
AS many of the oldest, thereby keep
ing my uniform number. Those
culs sell for mutton; they weigh
from l75 to 2l0 pounds from 50 to
$3.50 per cwt. feed the ewes
some grain while sucking their lambs
The latter are fed literally the first
winter, and afterwards hay. They
have grass through the summer, With
plenty of salt and water. Our sheep
are healthy, and we rarely lose any,
except when occasionally a stray
dog gets one but a little of the
same carcus medicated finishes him
the next night next, and that is an
end to him.
The advantage of having weeds
des troyed, and of the manure we
consider important items. These
and nice muttoD1 occasionally pays
for the keep, to say nothing of the
pleasure of raising stock that is gem
lie to handle. We change bucks
every two years, buying the best to
be obtained, and never using lamb
until after it is a year old.

SUCCESS IN LIFE.

Benjamin Franklin attributed his
success as public man, not to his
talents or his powers of speaking
for these were moderate-but to his
known integrity of character. -
"fIence it was he says, "that !

itaion in my choice of words, hardly

was said of the first Emperor Alex
auGer # Russia, that his personal
character was equivalent to consti>
!u,ion. Daring the wars of the
Fronde, Montague was the only
man among the French gentry who
kept his castle gates nnbarred; and
it was said of him, that his personal
character was worth more to him
than a regiment of horse, That
character is power, is true in much
higher sense than that knowl-
edge is power. Mind without heart,
INTEL gence with out conduct, clever.
ness with conduct, cleverness with>
out goodness, are powers in their
way, but they may be powers only
for mischief. We may be instructed
or amused by them; but it is some~
times as difficult to admire them as
it would be to admire the dexterity
of pickpocket,or the horsemanship
of highwayman. Truthiulness,
integrity and goodness qualities
that hang hot on any mans breath
form the essence of manly character,
or, as one of our old writers has it,
'that inbred loyalty unto virtue
which can serve her without livery"
When Stephen of Colonna fell into
the hands of his base assailanls. and
tbey asked him IN derision, "Where
now is youi fortress 7 Here" was
his bold reply, placing his hand upon
his heart. 1t is misfortune that the
character of an upright man shines
forth with a creates! luster; and
when all else fails, he takes his stand
upon bis integrity aud upon his
courage.
