more knowledge than may be acquired
BY any intelligent physician by the

Republican Meeting.-A more

Wheeler. bighearteI, genial, able Nels
Wheeler followed Mr. Cassiday, and
MS remarks were like the dessert that
follows luscious roast. We had not
seen Nels, the most genial soul that
ives, since 1858. and to sec Kim. and
to hear him did Us, and score or
others who knew him then, good like
a { pieasant) medicine His talk was
sharp, yet net wounding, keen as
rapier, yet it healed as it cut, brilliant
with the pureSt wit, as meteorIc dis
play. Wheeler is the Mark Twain of
the political rostrum. His peroratioa
was exceedingly fns = beautiful.
Wheeler is a man of big ability aud
can make as able speech as any ora
tor on the stump, but his mirth, his
genial nature, his ready repartee,
makes demand for his presence. and
political meeting without him is like
a soup without seasoning. Long live
Nels! for his friends are legion, and
their names are not inscribed upon the
rolls of any one political organization.
The meeting was decided success.

born to John BuZzeu and Carrie Porter, who
were unmarried. Last Saturday evening Buz-
Zell TOOK the mother and child for drive In the
suburbs, from Boston, both hoping somehow to
get rid OF the babe When near Maiden they
twice endeavored to get persons to adopt it, but
they were unsuccessful. There was some talk
OF leaving 1t at some institution, but that was
abandoned. Then Buzzell proposed that they
should strangle the babe, and he ordered Miss
Porter to stick one OF her fingers down the little
ones throat and choke 1t to death in that way,
She said she could not do it, so Buzzell proposed
TO DO so himself. The mother hid her head be-
meath her shawl, and the murder was accom-
pllshed. Arriving at some woods, BuZzen pro-
nounced the deed done, ana then tossed the
body In the woods, where it was found the next
sunday morning. In Its hands were found
some pine needles, which had been clutched
during its death struggle, and which shows that
the babe was not dead whea tossed from the
team. The guilty pair have been arrested, and
