PLATTEvILLE WITNESS.

PLATTEvILLE WITNESS.
A sneak thief took advantage of the
ab5ense of the country people on the
second day of the soldiers reunion and
broke into a number of houses in the
eastern part of the township. He first
went to Charles Benefits, breaking
the fastening of window, and stole a
first rate pair of pants and ransacked
the house generally, but nothing more
of value is missed. He next went to
Capt. w H. Laughton's. As he APP
preached. he stopped at the pump
and took drink Of water. He then
went around to the kitchen door, but
discovering Mrs. Laughton he passed
on around the house and went north.
AS he passed Mr.. Wright's, some child
rem were playing in front of the house,
SO he did not stop there, but went on
to the residence of Jas. Stephens. The
family were all absent in town, and
breaking open a window he got into
the house. He broke open trunk and
carried off from 50 to $40 in gold.
There was every appearance that he
rumaged the house from cellar to gar
ret, scattering things around in every
direction. The man is described as
having a light, sandy complexion, and
wearing light clothes.

Martins variety combination quietly
folded its tent on Monday night and

ment, they failed to draw an audience
in this city. at Muscoda the receipts
were far short of the expenses, and the
same is true in Boscobel. Had Nj.
Martin endeavored to compromise
with his creditors, he would have got
along more smoothly than he will I'm.
der the present condition of affairs.
Miss Jane Farrell, who it will be re-
membered was arrested one year ago
last spring on suspicion of burning

before the grand jury, and thereafter
released on promise of good behavior,
and for want OF sufficient evidence to
convict, has become insane, and was to-
day examined by Drs. Barber and Kan
ouse, who pronounced her condition as
very unfavorable. On order of Judge
McGonigal she was to-day conveyed to
the asylum by deputy sheriff Ora Rich
ards and her mother.

HIGHLAND REPUBLICAN.

J. F. Morrow, the Dollar Times man,
of Spring Green, has "set up shop at
Highland. Iowa county. He says he
has worked for the people of Spring
Green for nothing long enough, and
says he is going where his labors will
be appreciated. The people of the
Green are to be congratulated.
There is no excuse for men lying
around doing nothing this season.
There is d good demand for labor of all
kinds, and the prices paid are in keep
ing with the demand. How long these
lively times will last is not at all GER
tain; but while every available man is
picked up and set to work at some
thing, there is little use of any one
growing about hard times for the want
of something to do.

as an illustration. The essay closed
with fitting words of farewell to teach
ers and SchoolmateS.
The diplomas were conferred by the
principal of the school, and the exer
ciSeS concluded with the singing by the
class of the following song, preparee
for the occasion by Mr.. S. II. Schellen
ger.
Day of Joy we hail thy coming,
And rejoice DER yict'ries won;
For the school-work here assigned us
We are told is fully done.
Yet our Joy is tiuged with sadness
As we think of school days DER
And that We must part with Schoolmates
Whom, perhaps, Well meet no more.
Many hours we've spent with pleasure
Searching out the hidden truth;
Storing minds with youthful treasure,
Gaining needed strength in youth
For the more important lifework
Which will come with later years;
For we're bound to bear our burdens
Though it cost us pains and tears.
Then with courage we'll go forward
Looking on the Brighter side,
Pressing ever upward, onward,
Fearing naught that may betide;
Hoping that when life is ended,
And we lay our armor down,
What we've done may be commended,
And we given starry crown.
