CONLNG TO KENOSHA.

Owing TO the increasing interest Of the
special meetings held in the Baptist church,
and the fact that the pastor has been suffer-
ing from severe attack Of cold for some
days past, it has been thought necessary to
obtain help to carry on the work. On Mon
day last Mr.. Curr telegraphed to the Rev. B.
Fl. Brosted, the well-known Iowa evangelist
at Shell Rock, in that state, to come on at
once. A reply was received the same dsy
that Mr.. Brosted would be here to preach on
Thursday night, and every night till further
notice. NJ. Broated's style CT address is
eloquent and pointed to degree seldom
heard in our pulpits. He sesms passionately
in earnest in his work, and will doubtless
gather in large audiences to hear an eloquent
stranger that the more familiar voice Of 9

CARD OF THANKS.

To the Editor Of the Telegraph.
man does not ordinarily feel under obi.
CATION to return thanks for a pounding.
Men are naturally inclined to give hard
words for hard words, blow for blow, in
short, to pay back in the same coin received.
According to Christian teaching, however, we
are required TO return good for evil, to bless
them that despitefully use us and prosecute
US, from which we infer that it is cur duty to
return thanks for q pounding. Accordingly,
in behalf of myself and family, I desire to
give public expression of thanks to the many
residents Of Pleasant Prairie who, on q re-
cent evening. with very little premonition,
and entirely without invitation, invaded the
NJ. Z. parsonage and began summarily to
pound the innocent inmates with tea, coffee,
sugar and other things too numerous 10 men
ton. What audaeity What lawless free
dom How bewildering to the inmates /
And yet, with true christian spirit, we thank
you. Should any of you repent, we forgive
you, and would seven times. OF course the
effect cfyour acts will continue long, but to
quiet your fears we assure you no serious re-
suits are apprehended.
Your friend and pastor,
c. B. WILCOX.

About 4 80 Monday morning Ora Slade
of Keene, N. H., committed suicide by
cutting his throat. He was about 81
years old and leaves a wife and four
children. The cause is unknown, as he
has always been steady, Woodworking
man. For some time past he has seemed
to be in very low spirits. Mr.. Slade
went to Keene about three years ago
from Dandy, this county, and has worked
for the Cheshire railroad company, and
was at the time of his death employed
by the Keene furniture company.
HOPE IRIS TRUE BUT AFRAID NOT.
A late examination of the books OF
the Ashuelot savings bank at Winches-
ter by an expert is said by Albee's friends
TO show that instead of deficiency OF
$4,000 the amount is less than $4,000,
and that about $4,000 has been paid out
in dividends more than has been earned,
so that this and the interest reduce the
deficiency to a small figure. Albee's
friends are reported as confident that he
can be entirely exonerated from the
charge of embezzlement. He is now
sick and helpless.
Albee's counsel, under the order of
the court, have been taking depositions
before Leonard Wellington for the past
three days to sustain their motion for
change of venue in the trial of the case.
Ten dispositions have been taken, and
others will probably be taken on Satur-
day. The prosecution will present coun-
ter affidavits, the court having given
them to December in which to prepare
them. Judge Carpenter will render his
decision early in December. Albee is
reported to be seriously i'll, and hardly
able to leave his bed.
