The Bastcher-b0Y and the Bakers Girl.

1t was down in the yeast part of the city.
He was burly butcher boy-she was the
pie-ous daughter Of German baker next
door, with eyes like currants and her yellow
hair twisted on the back of her head like a
huge cruller. They leaned toward each
other over the backbone of the separating
railing. He was casting sleeps eyes at her
while hers turned to him with a provocating
roll.
"Meet me tonight beef fore quarter to TO-"
he said.
"Oh, dough-nut ask it," saidshe.

"You're not we'll bread,'' said she.
"Only sweet Bread" said he.

"Ah, you don't loaf me!' sighed she.
"Veal see. cleave to you and no mis-

Chicago is agitated over the fact that
Mayor Harrison has seen fit to remove Fire
Marshal Benner from his position for fail
ure to cooperate with him in the work of
reducing the expenses of the department..
When Mr.. Harrison assumed control of the
affairs of the city he found that the expenses
of the whole government were larger than
he though they ought to be, and so be inau-
gurated reform. The heads of all the de-
partments, save the fire department, cheer
fully joined with him, but the marshal gave
him to understand that he would do nothing
of the sort. Then note was sent to the
obstreperous official requesting his resig-
nation. He replied that he had taken the
mayors note under advisement, whereupon
he was summarily removed. Then the row
commenced. The deposed marshal
was popular with the newspapers, and,
with one exception, they have been abusing
the mayor for several days for doing his
simple duty. Some claim that he had no
legal right to dismiss the marshal, that right
ton will probably be decided by the courts.
There is no doubt, however, but the mayor
ought to have the power of removal. He is
held responsible for the good or bad gov
eminent of the city, and ought to have sub
ordinates who are willing to work in har-
mony with him. This result can only be
had by giving them to understand that the
tenure of Office depends upon the will of the
mayor, and that when they cease to obey his
wishes they must cease to hold flee under
him. Thus only can the necessary dicipline
be maintained.
1t seems to us, however, that the whole af-
fair is tempest in teapot. The dis
charged official is perhaps a good enough
fireman, but we have no doubt there are
others in that city quite as competent for the
position. Chicago may burn up again, and
if it does the fire marshal will have to be
sacrificed to appease the wrath of the citi
zens, no matter who he may be. 1t is prob
ably good thing for MIR. Benner's reputa.
ton that he has been dismissed before such
a calamity takes place. He can retire to pri.
vate life with better record than he would
be able to maintain, and leave to his success
sor the disgrace that will follow disaster
One would think by the ado made over this
matter, however, that Chicago has but one
fireman, and that the change just made was
little less than an act of incendiarism. We
have no doubt that when the people of the
city at the head of Lake Michigan are re-
stored to their senses the great majority will
cordially approve the course of Mayor Har-
rison.

A Fatal lightning Stroke.

Yesterday Col. John s. Prince received q
letter giving full particulars of the lightning
stroke which struck his farm at Mountain
Lake, Cottonwood county, last Tuesday af-
ternoon. The discharge carried death and
destruction with it. The barn standing
near the house was struck on the comb of
the roof, and broke or burnt the rider pole
entirely through, besides making sad havoc
with the shingling and sides of the building.
At distance of one mile from the house,
Laurence Lawless and Peter Peterson we're
engaged in digging post holes. They had
struck bed of rock and were usjnga steel
crow-bar for drilling purposes. The light
ming descended upon them, killing Lawless
outright, and rendering Peterson wholly un-
conscious for twenty-four hours. Evon at
the writing, Peterson had only partially re-
covered, yet enough to give an account of
the manner of Lawless death and his own
pr0straction.

Coal Discovery.

When Gen. Tompkins and Col. Smith
were at Fort Assinniboine, the new Milk
river post, they found every one more
or less excited over the discovery of bed
of coal in close proximity to the post. They
were given specimens of the discovery and
bringing them to this city, have
had the coal submitted to
a test. MI. R. O. Sweeny reports most IA
vorably, declaring that the specimens are
true bituminous coal, possessing high per-.
centage of bitumen, and is first class fuel
and suitable for blacksmithing purposes. A
full analysis is given of the product, which
indicates that the coal is first class in all
particulars. If the discovery turns out to
be something more than "pocket,' it will
be of incalculable Importance. Up to the time
of this discovery the section of country bor-
dering the Missouri has been thought wholly
devoid of coal traces at any rate reported
finds of coal have universally turned out to
to kbe only bids of Ignite. The bid, or
measure discovered, near Fort Assiniboine,
lies on the Milk river, about mile from
the post, within the boundaries of
the government reservation. It crops out
along the bank, and gives signs of being of
considerable extent. The everything deposit
is shale, clay and earth, making it very easy
to reach ana work the coal bed.

THIS race brought to the score five entries,
Oh. g. Great Western, br. m. Lottie B.
b. g. William a., oh. M Queen of Diamonds,
b. 8. Silas Wright and b. m Jennie R., as
fine string of four-year Odds as have been
gathered on any track this season. In
drawing for positions the colts were placed
in the following order: Queen of Diamonds,
S1las Wright, Lottie B., William III. and
Great Western. Previous to the send of,
the mouths of the colts were examined by a
committee consisting of Messsrs. LOOMS,
John Oswald and VIM. Ensign. The COM
mittee decided that Queen of Diamonds,
Great Western and William H., were de-
clared past four-ye old, that is past four
years on the first of January last. The
owners, however, made affidavit as to the
ages of their horses, and they were allowed
to start under protest.
First Heat-After several efforts the colts
were sent off with Queen of Diamons a
little of the best of it, Silas Wright second,
Jennie X. and Great Western last. On the
turn Silas Wright took the lead and
Jennie r. had worked up to third place,
William 81. fourth, Lottie B. fifth and
Western sixth. On the back stretch the only
change was made by Jennie Il. going to Sec

Second Heat-Sent off on the second trial
all well together. On the turn Wright, the
Queen and Jennie r. broke, Jennie dropping
to the rear before settled, with Wright Sec
ond and Queen third, the others strung out
behind, with Western in the lead. The
same position was maintained to the home,
down which William II. and Silas Wright

KAsoTA, LIE Sueur Co., Mimi, July 8.
A severe wind and rain storm struck this
place at $50 o'clock this morning, No
damage was done to buildings save the
blowing in of several doors and windows.
and overturning few outbuildings. Grain
and corn is knocked fiat and it is feared by
all that the damage to crops has been i'm
mense. The storm came from the north
west, and it is supposed that the large fields
west of us have suffered immensely.
KAsoTA, July 5.-The storm which
visited our vicinity on Thursday
morning last did more DAMAGE
than was at first suppo> ed. While we in the
village suffered the loss of fruit and orna-
mental trees, gardens, fences, etc., our farm
u friends Jared great deal worse. The
damage to crops can not at this writing
be estimated. Fences were scattered in ey
cry direction, and large trees were taken up
by the roots and carried for rods, some fall
ing on the roads, entirely blockading travel
IN some places. At lake Emily, two
miles east of here, the storm assumed the
shape of tornado, and in lis fury scattered
destruction on every hand. To sum up the
result of the hurricane, aside from destruc-
ton of crops, is about as follows: Alex Volk.
AOuSo oAO OhIA CEuSEcO, household goods
nearly all destroyed; damage estimated at
$4,000. Albert Volk, new frame house, large
barn and stave factory DESTROYED.
and four valuable horses killed:
damage estimated at $4,000.
II. Pettis, large barn and granary, contain
ing 300 bushels of wheat, carried into the
lake and demolished; one new buggy de-
molished and school house, also; damage
estimated at ST. 800. S. B. Carpenter, one
barn destroyed, valued at $500. A. B.
French, one barn, $500. b. Welton. one
barn, $500. w. Waterman, barn moved.

Cheadle, barn twisted and unroofod, $50.
Joel Strong and Mrs. School, each houses

Aside from damages, as above, Mr.. Peter

MONEY IN THE OHIO CAMPAIGN.

MONEY IN THE OHIO CAMPAIGN
In making their calculations on the Ohio
election the Democrats seem to have left
one very important factor out of the &C.
count entirely-that of money. There is no
doubt whatever that the candidates of the
Democratic party are immeasurably supe-
rior to their competitors, Intellectually and
otherwise, and the people, if left to them
selves, would endorse them by large ma
jority. Their principles, too, are in accord
with those of the majority of the people,
and would receive the cordial support of
Thousands in the State. But the opposition
enjoys exceptional facilities to get at the
sinews of war. The candidates themselves
are wealthy and can afford to spend a for
tune if they can thereby win success. They
have, besides, the command of all the vast
patronage of the government to assist them,
and it will be used unscrupulously to that
end. In the next place, the entire money
power of the country will be employed to
aid them, and through Sherman's manipula-
ton it can be readily made available. MIR.
Sherman is candidate for the Presidency,
and fully appreciates the Importance of car
rying Ohio in October, in order to make his
calling and election reasonably sure. He
will therefore take personal interest in the
canvass, and employ all the means at his
disposal to carry the State for the Republi-
cans. What these means are every one
knows. Aside from his syndicate opera
tons, which gave him strong hold upon
the bankers of the East, he has vast sums Of
money at his command, which he has loaned
in large amounts to several of his favorite
banks, as high as twenty mil
lions being on deposit in a single institu.
ton. The command of such vast resources
gives the banks great power, and they can
afford to pay literally for the favor. This
they will do in the form of contributions to
the campaign fund of the party that favors
them, and by exercising their influence for
the success of it's candidates.
