Rescued from Deaths

The following statement of William ]
Coughlin, of Sommerville, Mass, is SO re
rnarkable that we beg to ask for it the at
tention of our readers. He says: ''In
the fall OF 1876 I was taken with vio-
lent bleeding of the lungs followed by
severe cough. l soon began to lose my
appetite and flesh. l was so weak at one
time that could not leave. my bed. In

JUNEAU.

The terrible news of the Presidents
assassination did not reach here till
four o'clock Saturday afternoon through
a postal card from Watertown, the agent
Of this place not having deemed the mat
ter of sufficient Importance or interest to
inform the public. Juneau thus proba-
bly, enjoyed the distinction of being the
only telegraph station in the United
States where the news was not known till
eight hours after the act had taken place.
Throughout Sunday and Monday further
news was anxiously awaited, and by go
ing to Horizon or Minnesota junction
and by letter from Watertown oar citizens
succeeded in being kept posted.
The Sunday Schools of this place cele-
brated the Fourth by picnic in Bur-
nett, but the news from Washington had
so depressing an influence on the older
people, that the picnic was a very tame
affair, and terminated early in the after
noon w

The Horse Home.

Last Wednesday, the 29th of June,
DR.. Barber went to Chicago to secure his
stolen horse, taking along with him four
or five residents Of this city to identify
the animal. Thursday the Both was the
dav appointed for the hearing. The Doc
tor experienced very little difficulty in
proving TO the authorities having the
horse in charge, and to the satisfaction OF
the butcher in whose possession the beast
was found, that he was the rightful own
err The horse was shipped from Chica-
oo Thursday night and arrived here
Friday morning. He is in very good con-
clifton, and as sound as ever, although 1t
is evident that he has seen hard service
since he left here. The Doctor is of the
opinion that the thieves will eventually
be captured, and thinks it quite likely
that the carriage which disappeared with
the horse will also be found. The recoy
ery of the horse has been attended with
considerable expense to the Doctor ano
SO far as dollars and cents are concerned
he is not much ahead. He has the sat
isfaction, however, Of knowing that the
animal is again in his possession, ano
that right and justice have prevailed.

The Fourth.

Our people in expectancy OF the Presl-
dents death had but little zeal or spirit
in the celebration of the Fourth. Until
the afternoon bulletins from the bed
chamber of General Garfield gave but
little hope that the Executive could sur
vive through the National anniversary,
casting gloom and pallor over our en-
tire community and having depressing
influence on whatever arrangements had
been made for the observance of the day.
In the forenoon the Fire Department
paraded through the principal streets,
headed by the Watertown band making
a creditable appearance, the engines es-
pecially looking in fine trim. At the
Sacred Heart College grounds the con-
gregation of st. Bernard's church and
friends partook of a regular old fashioned
Fourth of July dinner, after the
disposal of which came speaking
appropriate to the day and especially ap :
propriate in consideration of the great
national calamity that had befallen the
country Hop. Daniel Hall delivered
a splendid address on the progress of the
nation, his speech being interspersed

Last Thursday the State Supervisory
Board appointed DR., R. NJ. Wigginton
Superintendent Of the Madison State
Hospital for the Insane, in place OF DIR.
Boughton, resigned, and he entered up
on the discharge of his duties the first
of the month. The appointment of DIR.
Wigginton to this important place gives
great satisfaction to his friends here and
in other parts of the state. From an ex-
perience of some years in the Madison
hospital as Assistant Superintendent and
for short time as Superintendent the
new appointee is well fitted for the dis
charge of the duties incumbent On the
position, and we do not hesitate to ven
ture the opinion that it will be shown
that the Board has acted wisely and in
the best interests Of the state in making
the selection. In common with the rest
of the community we regret to part with
DIR. Wigginton, but it is satisfaction to
know that he is able to make change
so pleasant and remunerative.
