The introduction of this tribute to the memory
Of the late President Garfield fully explains its
purpose. The verse Is easy and pleasant, and
much of the imagery is POLITICALLY beautiful, al
though the author has made Of his hero an Inn
possible human creation, and not, as he was, n
man Of flesh aud blood, null OF the weaknesses and
frailties Of humanity, albeit with many qualities
which endeated him to hisfriends and the people.
The Introduction Is ms follows;
Beside the spreading Nile Of old
A scrOlled pnpyrus, TO unfold
HIS virtues and the life he led
And all the gods IN council grave

The moral sympathies of men.
Man leaned on man for Judgment Just;
The grave became Truths inner shrine,
And every heap Of mOrtaLdust
Was revorenccd rs thing divine.

The Assassination IN Quincy of DR.,

Quincy, Ill, May 80 - Saturday
evening a young lady named Miss
Hellhake. while la:oring under tempo
rary mania, ATTEMPTED to commit sui
eide. The Gemol,ia, published by DE-
Hoffman, of this city, published a very
courteous account OF the affair, but it
seems that the ire Of two brothers and
a DR.. Speer was aroused ana the result
was cowardly and dastardly attempt
at assassination. which will probably
result IN the death of Dr. Hoffman.
The three men procured buggy,
and, ascertaining where the doctor re-
sided, drove there three times before
finding him at home The last time
they found their victim at home. They
got out, went into t he yard, and called
the Docto. into the yard, where they
opened fire on HIM with their revolver;.
The doctor retreated around his house
out they followed him up, discharglng
some ten OF twelve shots before deslst-
ing. Some young ladies, neighbors to
the doctor supposed he was playing
with his children at FIRST. and their at
tention being drawn by the firing.
witnessed the close of the tragedy.
All three men participated in the firing.
The Doctor was wounded in three
places, and it is thought his wounds
will prove fatal. The police was tele
graphed for, and all three men were
arrested in a short time after the deed
was committed.
