What Moody Says Of Guiteau.

A statement having appeared in
the press that Guiteau, the assassin
of President Garfield, had been o
co-worker with Mr.. Moody, the
evangelist, and bad lectured under
the auspices of the Chicago Christian
Association, reporter called on
Mr.. Moody at his home, in North
field, Mass, to ascertain what he
knew about him.
Mr.. Moody stated that he had
known Guiteau for ten years; had
never had any confidence in him,
and thought him o bad man. He
had more egotism and assurance
than any man he knew, and he
thought he was not entirely sound
in his mind. AS the opening of the
meeting conducted by Moody and
Sankey in Chicago in 1876, Guiteau
presented himself as an usher, hav-
ing an immense red, white and blue
rosette on the lapel of his coat, and
o baton in his hand. AS soon as
Mr.. Moody saw him he had the
rosette and baton taken from him
and refused to permit him to act as
an usher. Two or three times he
had him put out of the inquiry
room. Guiteau wrote several threat
ening letters to Mr.. Moody, Saying
that he was lawyer and would
prosecute everybody connected with
the meetings. 1t was the opinion
OF those who came in connection
with him then that he was little
out OF his mind He followed Mr..
Moody to others places, but was
never permitted to take part in the
meetings or have anything to do
with them. He tried at number
OF points to run up board bills on
the plea of being with Mr.. Moody in
his work, and Mr.. Moody, while be-
ing annoyed, could only denounce
him as a fraud and imposter.

The village of New Ulm, MINI,
was the scene of tearible calamity
on Friday evening. A destructive cy-
clone swept though the town and the
vicinity, demolishing all the buildings
in its course. From twelve to twen-
ty persons were killed there and in
the region round about, and many
others were seriously injured. The
lossof property in New Ulm is estimat-
edat over $780, 00,a and at otherlocal-
tiles as much more. OF the many ter
rife storms Of the present season,
this was the most destructive. Sew
eral hundred buildings were literally
torn into fragments, and the wonder
is that any of the inhabitants escap-
ed alive.

In order to secure payment without
fail the Thurman act" was passed
in 1878, requiring the company to
pay over 25 per cent. Of its net re-
ceipts to constitute q sinking fund
to liquidate the debt. This law the
Central Pacific has always resisted,
and it was apprehended that o1e
reason for the railroad interest in
the appointment Of Justice Matthews
was the expectation that he would
vote against the constitutionality of
the act. However, the payment
above referred to made up the full
25 per cent. of net earnings due be-
fore the opening of this year. Ex-
Auditor French, by this way, it

Last Friday night an express train
on the Kansas City extension of the
Chicago Rock Island and Pacific
railroad, eastward bound, was board
ed and taken possession of by armed
men, near Winton Station, Mo, six
ty-fve miles east of Kansas City. AT.
ter killing the conductor and threat
ening to kill the express agent and
others, the robbers broke open the
safe in the express car, plundered
it of $4,000 and decamped. The rail-
way management offers reward Of
$4,000 for the capture of the robbers.
The scene of the robbery is in the re-
gion made notorious by the outrages
of the infamous James brothers.

THouGH New York is the biggest
city on the continent, it is one OF
the most uncomfortable and I'M
healthy. Disease seems to be ram
pant there this summer. In the
first six months of the year there
were 1865 deaths against l5,446
in the same space last year, an in
crease of 31S9. This advance is
much more rapid than the gain in
population, and, so far as it goes,
shows that the city and the season
are ill-opened. AS was to be ex-
pected, the increase of deaths is
found to be accounted for largely
by zymotic diseases, 1878 CT the
$3.50 coming under that head.

THE news from Washington this morning
furnishes somewhat natural explanation OF
the sudden return OF ex-senator Howe from
his hobnobbing Partisan tour. Failing in his
effort to get place in Garfed's cabinet, 1t is
said that he hoped by the expected death OF
the President to successfully renew his claim
under the new regime, being "stalwart o!
the stalwarts." As the President improves, II
is sincerely to be hoped that Mrs. Howc's
health may also improvc.-MILwAUKEE SEN

kind and unjust aspersion as the

GUITEAU has made formal con.
fessicn TO the District Attorney at
Washington. After reading it nc
reasonable ground remains for ex-
cusing his attempt on the Presi-
dents life because of insanity. He
was no more insane at the time OF
the shooting than were the notorious
James and Younger Brothers at the
time they committed their outrages
and murders; or than the despera-
does who so lately shot to death the
two officers in this state. His in
sanity is simply viciousness mani
tested throughout life Of fraud and
lawlessness. An exchange present
ing this view of the assassin, says:
"He is no more crazy now than
he has been all his life, as his con-
fession proves, and the insanity
dodge, emotional or otherwise, will
not be allowed to cut any figure on
the trial. One evidence of his san
ity is that he was dead-broke, and
borrowed SIS of some one who
didn't know him to pay it, and the
next proof is that he didn't pay it,
because that was the way he has
done all his life, as dozens Of board
ing-house keepers can testify. II
he had used the SIS in honestly set
Ting his board bill, the fact would
have been so unusual that it might
be cited in proof of his being lit,
tie off his mental balance, but in.
stead of that he took ten of it and
bought a pistol to kill the President
Then he practiced at target-shootine
to perfect his aim. and took as good
care of his pistol as an old hunter
would of his gun. He logged the
President for three weeks like a
sleuth-hound, sometimes to the de.
pot, sometimes running after hls
carriage, and sometimes to the
church on Sunday, where, it seems
the villain had fully resolved to per-
form his hellish deed. He is just
crazy enough TO adorn the lower
end of the halter after the hang
mans knot has been tied under his
ear. and it is great pity that the
scaffold, instead of the penite ntiary
cannot claim him for its own.

IT is easy to imagine the multitud.
nous thoughts which crowd into
the mind of such man as Presj
dent Garfield. From necessity shut
off from the world, and knowing
little of the deep sympathy and love
which has been expressed by the
entire Nation, it is not strange that
just such thoughts come to him as
Mrs. Edison reports. She says on
Sunday morning the President was
respondent, and said to Mrs. Gar
field:
II wonder if this fight against death is
worth the little pinch of life l will get"
Mrs. Garfield discouraged him in talking
this way, saying, of course, it was worth while,
1t was in his head, however, and he said:
what in one life-what difIcrance does it
make, anyway ?'
The President was curious about the bullet
ms, and thought the people must be 'sick
and tired Of reading them"
In his days of convalescence be
will have much to gladden. him.

STRONG iutimations are seen with
in the ten days last past that Gen.
]. Nj. Rusk, of Viroqua, will be a
conspicuous figure in the next Re-
publican State Convention, as can
didate for Governor. 1t is said that
the General has for months withheld
enthusiastic admirers from inaugur-
ating an active, vigorous canvass
for him, but that they have at last
determined to fling his banner out,
whether he will or no. AS before
expressed in these columns, if Jerry
goes in he will be found to have so
many friends that all other candi-
dates will quake. Among ex-sol-
diers especially he is very popular,
from the fact that when in Congress
he was found always a friend of
soldiers. BY his acts he demonstrat-
ed that the pledges that "qualitica-
tons being equal ex-soldiers should
have preferences for positions Of
honor and profit" were to him some
thing more than political platitudes,
The fact that he rose from the hum
blest labor to honor and distinction,
and lacks much OF educational lin
ish, he has proved equal to every
duty or station assigned him, Wis
consiu can boast of no more honest
and practically efficient member OF
Congress than Jerry Rusk, and as
Governor Of the state he would un-
doubtedly acquit himself with equal
credit to himself and profit to the
people.

COAL VS.. WOOD.

Allow us to submit few figures to our
readers for careful consideration, and we
know that they will arrive at the same
conclusion that we do, viz: That it is
going to be cheaper to burn coal than
wood this winter. Coal at present sells
for $3.50 per ton; wood at Sc per cord;
saving, splitting, ETC., will bring it up
to $3.50 per cord. 1t is generally esti-
mated that about 2 cords of wood are
equivalent to ton of coal, or, reducing
our equation to dollars and cents, it takes
Sl5 worth of wood to equal 81. so worth
of coal. Here is a chance for you to
make just 100 per cent in the cost of your
fuel the coming winter, and you can do
50 by getting coal stove. We have
been in beth stores of Wagner, Rand &
Co., and must pronounce their stock of
stoves complete in every respect, 1. G.,
size, style, beauty of design, etc. Among
others our attention was most particular
ly drawn to the "Westpoint," "West-
minister" and "Alladin." These stoves
actually look gorgeous with their dress
OF nickel plating. They not only look
handsome, but after careful examina-
ton, we can safely say, that perfection
IN coal stoves has been attained in the
production OF the above mentioned
stoves. For full particulars apply at
either store of Wagner, Rand & Co. and
II deslrous OF purchasing they will surely
satisfy you in regard to price. Look
towards the dollars (and sense) of invest
ing IN coal stove and remember that by
SO doing you actually save leo per cent.
in fuel.
