SADCAsE OF DROWNING.

A very sad case of accidental drown
ing occurred in this city last Thurs
day afternoon. A number Of boys
were bathing in the Minnesota river,
just below the foundry and machine
shop. among the lot being Johnny, the
seven year old sou of Jack Gamble, of
Springfield, who had tho day before
como down with his mother on a visit
to friends in this.city. After padding
about for some time the boys emerged
from the water, but not until nearly
all had dressed themselves was Johnny
Gamble missed. Search was at once
made and the boys lifeless body was
soon found in the river by one of Her
man Kiesling's SONS. The sad tiiiings
were quickly conveyed to the mother
and she reached the river bank just as
the lifeless form of her darling boy
was being taken from the river. The
scene that ensued, as the heart.strick.
eli mother caressed the limp form,
was sad indeed, and the eyes of those
standing around became moist with
tears. Kind words Of sympathy were
expressed on all sides and the stricken
parent was comforted as well as cir.
cumstances permitted. Coroner Lau.
denschlager was summoned but he
deemed the holding Of an inquest I'm.
necessary, and the body was taken to
the residence Of Mr.. Sturgis, from
where it was taken to Springfield for
interment, on the following morning.
Mr.. Gamble was informed by tele-
graph of the sad occurrence, and he
arrived in the city, accompanied by
his brother Michael, about one o'clock
the same night. The bereaved family
has the sympathy oftheir many friends
in this city and Springfield and vicini-
ty.

Truth Stranger than Fiction

Let me take a Retrospective view of
the past and show the wonderful pro.
gress of moral civilization on the intel.
lectual faculties of all Kingdoms and
principals and tribes Of the earth. In
the remote barbarious ages of ancient
antiquity, when all mankind was liv.
ing in a state uncivilization. Even the
most enlightened people of advanced
civilization were ignorant of what was
their benefit and advantage to them in
the pursuits of life. Mans political
state in ancient times waslblood- thirs-
ty. Such, I say, was man crooked
crab-stick in Natures apple orchard,
fit only to be hewn down and made in.
to stump, fenced till the sunshine of
reason and philosophy began to pene.
trate his brains and shoot the light of
common sense into the dark recesses
OF his Uranium. After he got little
glimmering of sense, he began to per.
ceiye that all the wisdom of ignorance
did not make him an idiot, and natur.
al fool. And so the first thing man.
kind did after the dark ages was to 20
straight to work and get up a moral
reform society and appoint commit
tee on the state of the world. This led
to the building of Noah's ark, the
foundation of Constantlnople, and the
discovery Of America by Columbus.
This is the way the world got civilized
by putting down the dark ages and get.
ting up moral suasi0n and the march
of intellect. We can only mediate a
while and perceive at the wonderful
progress and giant strides the United
States has made in education, popula-
ton, science and social and intellectual
Developments in the past few centu-
ries. Now we can look back and see
what a great change, since the dark
ages in the political, social and ingeni.
Gus conditions of mankind. The good
seeds Of necessary ingenuity was early
sown in America 10y your interprising
progenit0rs and since carefully cult

boast of their indispensable achieve
