For many years past there has re-
sided at Crooked Greek, Mimi. "a bout
eight miles north Of New Albin, an
eccentric old German, supposed to
be miser. He secluded himself as
much as possible, and desired 10 be
left alone. He is reported to have
had considerable wealth buried on
his farm. A number of years ago a
party of men went to his lonely hut
at midnight and attempted to extort
from him his money, and on his re-
fusal, they divested him of his cloth
ing, made a fire in his stove, and
held him over it till be was fearfully
burned, threatening to take his life.
lie still refused, saying, "My life is
worth nothing if 1 have no money!"
A few weeks ago he was taken sick.
Mr.. Ward, a neIghbor, called TO see
him and offered assistance. lie told
him that he would take him to his
own house and care for him, or, if
he preferred, would make arrange
ments TO have him taken 10 some of
his friends if he had any. The old
man refused, and told Mr.. Ward to
get out and not meddle with his
affairs. A. he has at times kept
himself out of sight, no attention
was paid to his non-appearance for
some days after. One of his neigh
bors. however, had occasion to call
on him this morning TO see about
some cattle. He found the door and
windows fastened, and as everything
did not look right, he went down TO
the railroad track where the section
men were at work, and asked that
one of them would go with him and
ascertain how matters stood. The
request was granted, and on reach
ing the house the door was pried
open. On entering, the offensive
smell could not at first be endured.
After waiting a few moments out
side, they entered the second time
and found old Mic. on his pallet dead
and rotting, with big black bugs and
worms feeding on his putrid re-
mains. 1t is thought he died from
want and proper care, while he had
abundant means to provide all that
was necessary for his health and
comfort.

Write Home.

EDITOR JOURNAL An old lady
of more than three score years and
ten, to whom often send your ex.
cellent paper, wishes me to write
something for it which will particu.
larly remind the readers thereof, OF
the "old folks in the old, old home,
who month after month look in vain
for letter from their children who
have "gone west" and are scattered
far and wide. clipped the follow
ing poetry from a piece of an old
stray paper, and l do not know who
the author is, but think it is better
than anything which l could say up
on that subject, even though l
should try, and try again: therefore
| ask a place for il in the JOURNAL,
and in the minds of its readers also.
n. ID. HOWE.
WRITE THEM A LETTER TONIGHT.
Don't go to the theatre, grange, or ball,
But stay in your room tonight;
Deny yourself of the friends who call
And good, long letter write
Write TO the sad. old folks at home
Who sit when the day is done,
With folded hands and downcast eyes
And think of the absent one.
Don't selfishly scribble "excuse my
haste,
I've scarcely the time to write"
Lest their brOoding thoughts 90 wander
ing back
To many by-gOne night,
When they lost their needed sleep and
rest,
And every breath was a prayer
That God would leave their delicate
To their tender love and care.
Don't let them feel that you've no more
need
OF their love or counsel wise:
For the heart grows strangely sensi itiye
When age has dimmed the eyes
1t might be well to let them believe
You never forget them, quite;
That you deem 1t pleasure, when far
away,
Long letters home to write.
Don't think that the young and giddy
friends,
Who make your pastime gay,
Have half the anxious thought for you
That the old folks have to-day.
The duty Of writing do not put off;
Let sleep or pleasure wait,
Lest the letter for which they looked and
lOnged
Be day or an hour too late.
For the sad, old folks at home,
With locks fast turning white,
Are longing to hear from the absent one
Write them Il letter tonight.
