The sudden death OF Mr.. G. ii. Col
Inns will be n sad surprise 10 the many
friends OF that gentleman in this terri
tory. 1t Is only q few days since he
was In our midst, In his usual good
health, hearty and genial rs ever. The
writer knew Mr.. Collins well; he was q
gentleman Of noble impulses; generous
to a fault; n fine business man; a pleas
ant companion. At home he was the
loving husband and father, and In bust
ness circles, the upright and respected
merchant; always public spirited; cour
teous and liberal in his intercourse with
bis fellow men.
1t is sad indeed, that q life, so useful
and so promising for the future, should
have been suddenly ended In q moment
Of Inconsistencies by his own hand. II
is certainly a mysterious thing, that a
gentleman 70 clear-minded, with such
4 full realization OF the beauties and
pleasures Of life, with such n compre-
hensive appreciation Of his duties To
himself, his family and friends that
80 nearly perfect n man. rs we have
known G.. II. Collins to be-should de-
part this life in such q manner. But
Thou knowest."
A few moments before his death he
had no thought, evidently, Of commit
ting the deed. He had been busy pre-
pairing for the following Sundays du-
ties. He had arranged his Sunday
clothing nea his bed, ready to be put
On the next morning. While undress-
ing, the fatal pistol met his sight, and
instantly he seized II and sent the lead
en messenger to his brain.
Alas! for poor, weak humanity;
we take pride in u strength. in our
will-power and self control-but a mo-
mentary suspension Of our faculties
proves what weak mortals we are.

Balky Horses.

Among suggestions said to be
published by some Anti-cruelty to
Animals Society, are these: IF the
horse when he balks, can have his
attention diverted, there is usually no
trouble in starting him. This may
De done in various ways of which
the following are a few that have
been employed: Take the horse
out of the shafts and turn him
around al, several times quite rapidly.
MS will make him entirety dizzy
and lead him to forget that he does
not wish to draw the load. A stout
Iwlne twisted around the fore-leg
mas been used as a remedy with
good results. A string tied around
tne ear has the same effect. We
nave seen horses of the balkiest sort

say further, that if there is yet |
dormant Grange, or a community
of farmers in Milan county, tina
wishes to organize or reorganizt
and go to work to help on in the
great struggle for right and justice
against wrong and oppression let me
know and viii never be too busy
to come and give you the best start
/ can.
Patrons and farmers of the 2Ist
Senatorial District, this is q fearful
slumber into which many of you
have fallen. 1t does seem to me if
you could realize the dangers that
surround you, the expressions you
endure, the burdens you bear, the
unjust taxes you pay, the fearful
strides that moneyed rings, and the
combinations of wealthy and soul
less corporations are making, by
strong organizations to extort from
you the honest proceeds of your
hard labor; and not only that, but
to impoverish and enslave you and
your children for all time to come.
They are now forging the chain by
which they will bind us hand and
foot. | say that it does seem to me
if you could but comprehend the
situation, you would get out of the
slough of despond and come to the
help of those who are standing be-
tween their wives and children and
hearth stones and these fearful COM
binations, as they snap and snarl
and howl about our habitations. I
am glad to know there is a noble
band at the front, battling manfully
to turn back this dark tide. But
we need reinforcements; our ranks
are not yet sufficiently strong to
successfully contend against them.
Our cause is just; our principles
are pure; our trust is in God, and
we fear no danger.
May hope that our ranks in this
District will be doubled this year?
This can be done if each one will
his or her duty. What, can you not
bring one recruit in during the
year? Every one can do that. Then
our force would be doubled. Let
each member determine to bring
one addition this year, and I will
promise to bring five hundred.
did not forget THE PATRON,
but the people are exceedingly hard
pressed from the failure of last
years crop and have no money. /
am pleased with its new dress, and
still more to know that it has a
home of its own. Long may it live
to battle in the noble cause it has
so bravely and manfully defended
for years.
