No little uneasiness was caused the first
Of the week, by an exaggerated report OF
the prevalence in our midst of q number
of cases of that murderous disease dipthe.
ria. When the report first gained circula.
ton, as usual, it gathered fresh horrors as
it passed from one to another, and by the
time TRIBUNE reporter had been etarted
out to ascertain the truth, the rumors were
terrifying, and indeed, considering the
usually fatal nature OF this terrible disease,
it is not to be wondered at that people,
parents especially, become alarmed when
they learn of its appearance. Learning
that Dr. Heenan had charge of the cases,
that gentleman was called upon and in
substance stated as follows: The child
that died last week, an infant, was sick
with pneumonia or inflammation of the
lungs, and was very low, when diptheritic
symptoms suddenly appeared. OF course
the complication speedily proved fatal to
the child in its enfeebled condition. The
second case was young son of Mr.. Jacob
Zimmerman, and as it was in the same
family and among neighbors was easily
accounted for. This is the only case in the
village and the child is now couvalescent.
In this connection it might be we'll to add
that Dr. Heenan informed the board of
health that he had required the family to
prohibit visits with or from their neigh
bors in other words quarantined the house,
and had taken all the usual precautions to
disinfect the premises and also the persons
and clothing of the inmates, with view
to combining the dread disease TO its present
limits and if possible stamp it out. In re-
gard to the closing of the school we say
that it was done for two reasons: frat ans
unacconntable delay in the shipment. Of
the furniture for the new room which was
to have been here and in place by last
week, aud secondly as a precautionary
measure in view of the appearance of the
diptheria, yet had the room been ready
it is doubtful if the school would have
been closed.
From Hancock we learn that the dis
ease has appeared, four or five cases be-
ing reported in that village. The schools
are closed and we hope our neighbors will
adopt the most rigid measures to stamp
out this douoly accursed plague, as if it
once gets a foothold it will hang ON the
whole season. Our Framness correspon-
dent repo.ts two fatal cases in that neigh.

4 To,tdh Time

Last Thursday evening some Of the resi-
dents on the hill east of town were startled
by lusty and prolonged calls for help and
in response to the cries Mr.. j. House and
Mr.. NJ. Weber went to the assistance of
the party in distress. On arriving at the
fence ON the road in rear of Mr.. Webber's
residence they found farmers team, one
of the horses down under the feet of its
mate, and in the wagon box were two men
one of whom was being numerically. not
to say brutality, maltreated by his assailant
and companion, who was plucking the
whiskers and hair from his face and head
in liberal handsful. Messrs. Webber and
House of course undertook to release the
assaulted party, when they were set upon
by the ruffianly assaiant, a big, burly, alco
hol-soaked hercules, who made a desper-
ate fight. In the scrimmage Mr.. House
was slightly scratched by being kicked in
the face by the PROSTATE ruftian, who
planted both feet in Johns off check with
n force that wonId do credit to a we'll de-
velored mule. They finally succeeded in
upsetting the "boss kicker" and tying his
hands, and after long search hunted up
the night Waterman, with whose assist.
ance they landed the fellow in the lock up
for the night. During the melee the man
who was so roughly handled and who
owned the team, drove off, leaving his res
cucrs to finish the battle us best they might
Next morning the muscular but meek
prisoner was taken before Justice Hutciins
and gave his name as ANN Bodjski, plead
guilty and was fined $8.75 for drunk and
disorderly conduct. Several complaints
have lately been made that the night
watchman is not as Jealous in the discharge
Of his duties as he should or used to be.

Il Serious Charge.

On Wednesday of last week, state war
rants were sworn out before justice Hutch
ms by detective j. r. Cleveland of St.
Paul. charging two of the employees of
the company at this place, with fraudu-
lently, fcloniously and with false intent
defrauding the St.. P, NJ. & M. railroad
of $50 35, which sum was drawn for wa
ges, but which it is claimed was unlaw
fully obtained, services not being rendered.
In other words the parties arrested Mich
acl Calvin, a brother of roadmaster Gil
vim and William Lyons, section foreman at
this place, are accused of having collected
pay from the company which they had
not earned and to which they were not en-
titled, for the reason that at the time they
collected wages from the company, it is
charged they were not at their posts
but were elsewhere employed. The case
or examination was taken before Justice
Baldwin on change of venue. When the
case was called Saturday morning it was
dismissed on motion of the county attor.
icy, new facts and other reasons rendering
it necessary that the cause be quashed and
"a new suit be commenced
This case has stirred UP considerable
feeling among a certain class in this com.
munity, and while on one hand it is
claimed that the charges can and will be
fully substantiated, on tn. other hand il is
cmpha!ically asserted that they arc utterly
devoid of any foundation. Ii is also
claimed that III y have been instigated en-
tirely for malicious and revengcful pur-
poses, by enemies among former en-
ployees of the company, who had been
discharged, an. who attributed their re.
moval to roadmaster Calvin, and seek re.

make room for supposed favorites of his.

In this connection we might add tina,
