take place in the church in this CITY
The new version says "men DO not put
new wine in old wine skins" That part
OF the revised scriptures will have to be
revised for this part of the world, for there
are personally known to be quite number
of old wine skins hereabouts that are be-
ing constantly tested in this respect ana
never an explosion has there been yet.
An old negro barber named Thomas
Freeman, who had been keeping barber
shop ON Ohio levee, several doors above
Eighth street, for a number of years, was
found dead IN his chair by one OF his Gus
toners Yesterday afternoon. He lived very
secluded, attending strictly to his business
and, for all that was known, enjoyed lie.
The cause of his sudden death is a mystery
A paper is beng circulated in the city
and is being numerously signed setting
forth that Mr.. Henry Stout, Of this city, Is
a competent workman In masonry ana
thoroughly reliable in all his undertakings
The paper is to be used by Mr. Stout in
furthering his chances to obtain the con-
tract for rebuilding the Anna insane asylum
That Mr.. Stout is, in every respect, able to
satisfy the best judges of work In his hne
is an acknowledged fact wherever he is
known.
To have all benefits to be obtained
from the health-giving waters of Waukesha
and Saratoga, or the most Celebrated Ger
man springs, Cairoites do not have to seek
those localities. They have the springs at
home, provided by Messrs. Barclay Broth
ers, at their drug stores "a Ohio Levee anc
and Eighth street and Washington avenue
People in very moderate circumstances arr
thus enabled to realize the benefits of the
waters, by enjoying the springs provided
for them at home. For particulars see ad
vertisement Of Barclay Bros.
Ice cream was dispensed in large guam
titles at Reform hall last evening to very
large number of citizens. The hall wa
crowded nearly all the time from sever
o'clock until about eleven. Five or 81!
tables we're handsomely decked an(
decorated with flowers, and waited upol
by Misses Jennie Wilson, Fannie
Barclay, Emma Leland, Barby Netf
Lena Ray, Maude Rittenhous'
Mamie Parker and Mrs. Parker, Mrs. G
M. Alden and Mrs. Sargent. The affai
must have been as profitable to the club az
it was pleasant to the guests, which is say
ing great deal.
The Cairo correspondent of the Chica
90 Tribune in his account OF the accident
which resulted fatally to young George
Merriam, says.that it is thought death wa
caused by the "chloroform that was giver
him." This is an error. Doctor Parker
who dressed the boys wounds, administer
ed no chloroform or anything else unto him
The boy was, during the operation of am
putating his fingers, in stupol
from which lie did not awake. Nothing
but little liquor was given him, and that
before he was brought into the doctors
office. 1t is the opinion of Doctor Parker
that the boy died of cerebral hemorrhage
1t was rumored late last night that
another attempt to do personal violence to
the negro, Albert Hayes, would be made
early this morning That twelve men from
Kentucky had been imported to do the jol
of hanging the young wretch. Up to this
writing, half-past eleven o'clock, all il
quiet and no attempt has been made t.
repeat the rather grotesque affair of thu
night before. That there is ample cause
for indignation at the heinous crime of tn,
youthful devil cannot be doubted, but it j!
also crime to take him out of the hands
of the law after he has been placed unde
. lock and key with the intention of sendint
/ him prcmaturely into hades.
, Albert Hayes, the young negro, who's
blood was sought by a company of angr,
citizens night before last, was taken to tn
county court room for preliminary ex
y animation yesterday afternoon. Els
/ quire Osborn was present ant
s held court. The negro was represented
. by Hon. d. T. Linegar and the people b.
City Attorney Hendricks. The prisone
, waived an examination, and was held i
bond in the sum of five hundred dollars 70
his appearance at the July term of the Gil
cult court. He was very much. scared a
the attempt made upon his life the nigh
before, and therefore he was not brought t
the police court for trial.
