TRIPLE TRAGEDY IN ILLINoIs.-Wm.
Hogg, one of the oldest and most highly
respected citizens of Bloomington, ILL.,,
returned home at noon the other day and
on entering the parlor shot his daughter,
Mary, aged IS. Passing out into the
yard he called for his son William, aged
II, who was playing, placed the pistol to
his head and fired, the ball coming out
under the opposite ear. Then, stepping
into the woodshed behind the house, he
placed the pistol to his own head and
fired, the ball lodging in the brain. He
fell upon the floor, where be was found
soon afterward by q passer-by with q
revolver in his right hand and his blood
dyeing the floor around him. Mary
and her father are both dead. The
son is likely to recover. Hogg recently
married young wife, his second. and was
apparently living in comfort. This
morning his wife went to Normal, and
probably escaped like terrible fate.
Hogg was always considered excentric.
He was for years successful speculator
in lands, but recently he had been unfor-
tunate, losing the bulk of his property.
This it is supposed preyed upon his mind.

the supper be very sparing.
Eat slowly, slightly, masticate thor

Avoid luncheons by all means.
Exercise freely in the open air; never
sit moping, but turn your mind entirely
from your disease and trouble.
Keep the feet dry; let the solcs OF
your shoes be thick, that no dampness
may penetrate them.
Keep regular hours; rise early; exer-
else half an hour gently before break
fast.

FROM PROF. WIsE's DALLooS.-A
roll of papers was found on the beach Of
Lake Michigan at Lake Station, Ind,
thirty miles southeast OF Chicago, on Oc-
tober 20, which was thrown from the bal
loon in which Prof. Wise and Mr.. Burr
left st. Louis three weeks ago yesterday.
The package contained circulars for q
western land company, similar to those
found in central Illinois, and on their
backs we're written the following senten-
ces: "Thrown from Prof. Wise's trans.
continental balloon Pathfinder" and
dropped from Prof. Wise's balloon"
The papers had evidently been in the
water some time, but they were not mu-
tilatcd, and the writing was plain. The
balloon passed over Lake Station on the
night after its departure from St. Louis.
The finding of these papers is considered
conclusive evidence that it must have
gone down in the water. There is much
excitement at the Station, and u large
number of persons searched tho beach
for miles, hoping to fud some trace of
the missing balloon and men.

TAKING THE CENsUs.-We have re-
cciyed from Francis A. Walker, Super
intendent of Census, n circular concern
ing the Office of enumerator under the
census law. BY the Act of 1879 enume-
ration districts are not permitted to ex-
ceed 1000 inhabitants according to the
census Of 1870. The number of inhabi-
tants in enumeration districts, except iu
cities or large towns, should ordinarily
fall far short of this limit. The amount
to be paid to enumerators will be from
81 to Sc per day of ten hours of actual
work. The work is to be done within
four weeks in the country and within two
weeks in cities. The Superintendent
thinks that country physicians and
schoolmasters will prove the best enume-
rators. The enumeration is to be made
in June, 1SS0.-Newbelry Herald.

column for 1880. The Ohio idea ought
to be allowed to stay dead this time. 1t
has great deal Of impudence, but it
certainly can't have enough to attempt to
impose itself upon anybody any more.
From the Ncu York Sun.

While, however, Gen. Ewing was put
forward as the Democratic candidate, he
was known as an advocate of soft money
and of the oppressive, inquisitorial. un-
constitutional income tax. The circum.
stance that be held to such unsound and
odious doctrines goes far to reconcile US
to his defeat.
From the Philadelphia Press
The result cffectually disposes of what
is popularly known as the "Ohio idea"
in finance. The paper-money delusion
has been repudiated in the Stare in
which it had its origin and where it was
propagated by men of ability and char
acter.
From The Philadelphia Ercning Bulletin.
The Ohio victory is a warning to the
South that it cannot obtain the suprema-
cy that it covets by the means it has
adopted; and what Ohio has said re-
specting this matter will be said with
equal vehemence by other Northern
States in November.

From the Philodc1phia Times.

The vote of Ohio simply means that
the present National attitude of the De-

their party allegiance, and that the State

The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1879-10-30
From, the Ne,v York World.

All that can be asserted positively of
the result in Ohio to-day is that the Re-
publicans have failed to take that great
Commonwealth out of the wavering line
of States doubtful for 1880, and to plant
it, as they hoped to plant it, in the van Of
the Republican column, where of old it
used to stand. Mr.. Blaine stands on as
fair footing to-day in Maine as Mr..
Sherman in Ohio. Mr.. Ewing has been
beaten, as he elected to be when at the
outset of his canvas he deliberately aban-
doned the strong ground of an outright
Democratic protest against the vetoes of
President Hayes, and undertook to coun-
ter with his own financial theories the
stalwart facts of a magnificent harvest in
the West, of unparalleled crops at the
South and of an infowing tide of gold
from Europe. 1t appears, even from the
partial reports so far received, that the
Democratic candidate in Ohio owes his
defeat chiefly to the stern hostility pro-
voked among the German-born Demo-
Gratis of Hamilton County by his fnan-
cial heresies.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1879-10-30
From the Washington Post.


This is disheartening intelligence. We
had hoped, even when it was evident
that Foster had been elected to the Gov
ernorship that the Legislature would
turn out to have a Democratic majority
on joint ballot, and the fact that the re-
verse is really true is what makes it
serious disappointment. The result is
probably due, more than anything else,
to the unfortunate stand of Gen. Ewing
on the financial questions. The people
of Ohio evidently do not believe in soft
money. On the whole we think it is
about time for the Democratic party to
recognize the fact that this is hard
money country. Let it return to its old
time principles and act, in every instance,
accordingly.
From the Nc,o York Tribune.
This great victory must not be belittled
by assigning it to too narrow causes. 1t
is not the result of Mr.. Fosters energetic
canvass, nor of the labors of any man,
however able and sincere. 1t is not the
result of the Sherman boom, nor of the
Grant boom, nor of the Blaine boom, nor
of the Hayes boom. All these currents
in the campaign have had their effect, no
doubt, but the one mighty cause has been
the profound conviction of the people
that the interests of the country would
not be safe for the next four years in
Democratic hands.
From the Philadelphia Telegraph.
Ohio has in very distinct manner re-
pudiated both Ewing and Thurman, and
With them the financial heresies which
they have advocated, and it has declared
itself so emphatically in favor of all that
is worth while in Republicanism that
nothing but egregious bad management
on the part of the Republican leaders,
combined with superlatively good man
agcment on the part of the Democratic
ditto, can prevent the Republican
candidate of next year from getting the
electoral vote of the State.

at 10 clock. With the splendid State
Ticket nominated at Sacramento last

never before placed before the voters of
Trinity, ard we confidently anticipate
local nominations which will enthusiastic.
cally sweep the county. We urge upon
Republicans in every precinct that they
attend the primaries and select their best
representative men and see that they at
tend the Convention in person with the
sole object Of securing Republican sue
cess. Do not allow yourselves to rest
content upon the anticipation Of victory
but grid on the arnor ofrlght and justice
and war with all the determination and
enthusiasm which the business of our
cause engenders, and assist to the full ex-
tent of your power in making that victory
so overwhelming that it will leave no
shadow of doubt as to the result of the
Presidential election TO follow next year

A SPLENDID ANIMAL.-James Morris
of the New York Hotel, returned on
Thursday last from Reading bringing
with him the celebrated thoroughbred
Devon Bull "Blucher," purchased from
r. McEnespy, OF Chico. Blucher is dark
red in color, perfect in every part and
is estimated to weigh about 1890. His
pedigree is as follows: Dropped Oct 2Sth
1874; got by Queen AIMS Huron; bred
by James Buckingham; lst Dam Helena
10th, by Imported Omar Pasha; End Dam
Helena 80, by Imported Megunticook;
4th Dam Imported Helena. The pedi
gree as above given is authentic and is
recorded in 4th volume American Devon
Herd Book, Page %, No. 1853. Mr.. j.
Buckingham, GAINESVILLE, Ohio, who
bred him says: "Blucher, on my cata.
logue No. So is as good if not the best
Devon bull calt ever raised or ever saw"
NJ. Morris deserves great praise for his
enterprise IN securing this noble animal
and we doubt not the investment will
prove paying one. With the facilities
for rails sing cattle afforded by this county
our stock>rai isers should not neglect the
opportunity of improving their breeds
and raising the finest cattle in the world.
Any further information can be- obtained
by calling on or writing to Mr.. James
Morris, New York Hotel, Weaverville.
