Editor Reruioc
am glad that Beaver Dam is not
like some communities This people
generally attend each to his own busi-
ness. Some towns you live In you find
n certain class there who attend to
everybody's business except their own.
If they see that you are making money
they begrudge il t-they work different
ways to keep you from making any,
and many ways to get you dispossessed
of ii. If no other way, they have the
grand jury to indict you for some ofiense
that you are not guilty of; they swear
falsely, maliciously, cowardly, and
every other way to get your money
from you IL they cannot get il into their
own pockets. You'll hear of them all
the time In some way or another. IL
they can conceive of any way to get
you into trouble they do so. They try
to rise OH Your DOWNFALL sometimes
they fall lower I'm the attempt, for Il il
an evident fact that wherever you find
these busy bodies they are nothing,
comparatively, i'm the eyes of persons of
intelligence. You don't find One-third
Of a community this way, but you find
few-a few who want to rule, who
want you to look Up To them a. il they
We're the great II Am They are poor,
miserable wretches; they have their
short day; they mingle among each
other, almost unnoticed by those of in
tellect. They are poor, ignorant beings.
They live a short time, dwindle into
nothingness, lie down and die, go to the
grave unknown, unhonored and un-
sung" May God pity them
do think if all people, live where
they may, would attend tn their own
business, and not be 50 0ffielous, they
would always have plenty to do; they
would be more thought Of IT, while they
are trying to trouble Others, they Were at
home sitting quietly down endeavOring
To store their minds with useful knowl-
edge and refinement; they would then
make better impression nn the minds
of their children; their little ones would
grow up to be men and women in the
true sense of the word. HENRI.

A Sad Happening.

Mr.. John ID. Bell and all of his fami-
ly We're taken suddenly sick last Friday
evening. Mr.. Mat Neal, in company
with two stock men, took dinner there
and were also victims of the sad hap
pening. Mr.. Bell left after dinner In
company with the three gentlemen
above named, and took so sick that he
has not been able to be brought home.
The family are all very sick, and ii Is
thought at this writing the recovery of
some of the members of the family is
doubtful. The cause of the sudden and
severe attack of these people has not
yet been discovered, but 1t is thought
that il was caused from poison in the
water. 1t is hoped that they may all
recover

Terrible Fire.

One wing OF the State insane

was burned the night oi the Is. b /.
The structure occupied ten years III
building, and WAS completed thu go
years ago at a cost of half n nils
lion dollars. The cause OF tho ii 9
Is unknown. 1t originated i'm the
basement of the north wing, WHICH
was destroyed. Different reports
state the loss of lite at from three
to fifty, but no bodies have been
found, aud no one is surely known
to be missing. When the danger
became imminent, the superinten-
dent ordered the release of the pa
ticnts, and it is probable some were
overlooked in the confusion and
burned, especially as some of the
rooms we're quickly filed with
smoke and could not be entered by
the rescuers. There were 656 pa.
ticnts in the Asy lum last year. The
liberated ones were cared for by
citizens. Probably some took adj
vantage Of the opportunity to run
away, and others wandered off aim
lessly. Pie number of lives lost
By burning and freezing, is various
" estimated at from twenty-five to
fifty. The loss Oh the building is
$500, 900.
