THE PLACE.
Knowing the readers of THE HERALD
to be deeply interested in the Lima
mystery representative of the paper,
in company with District Attorney Orr,
visited the scene of the tragedy last
We elk. A more gloomy or forbidding
spot it would be hard to picture. a
four mile drive out from Platteylllc
along the road to Moorehead's saw mill
brings the traveller to a road running
east through the timber, a pleasant but
rather sombcr highway, the pleasant

the strength of the sun 5 rays half
mile from the turn pair Of bars affords
entrance to the road over which Emily
Sisley drove a happy bride the Monday
before she was ushered into eternity.
A dip into rayine, where the active
ponies attached to the news gathcrcrs
phaeton had an opportunity to display
their agility, was followed by a rise over
a sharp hill and winding down through
q grove of second growth oaks the log
cabin comes into view, situated on the
edge of deep and shaded rayinc. The
house itself is the common log structure
prevalent in this paradise of hoop poles
and timber. As the party approach the
house all, is silent, the very house-dog
sinks away without his usual challing-
ing bark as if aware of the uncannincss
which seems to hang over all. No signs
of life are shown about the house, Mrs.
Hamilton and Mrs. Stout having gone
over to the home of the father of the
former, about mile away. An open
window afforded an entrance to the in

Tuesday last at 10 4, m. was the ulae
fixed for the examination of Sisley and
Hamilton the latter having been brought

enced in the appearance of the learned

swcltering crowd. Finally the working

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.
A List OF the Towns Which VIII Celebrate and the
Attractions they Offer.

The birthday of our national indepen-
dence stands in fair way of not suffer
ing from a lack of attention so far as
Grant county is concerned. Appropri-
ate celebrations will be in order at Mt.
Hope, Cassville, Sitter, Wyalusing and
Platteville.
At Mt. Hope, as will be seen by adj
yertisement in another column. prepar-
ations have been made for q general
good time, which doubtless will be en-
joyed by every one present. Hon f. |.
Kidd viii deliver the Grafton which is a
sufficient guarantee that this portion of
the programme will not be lacking in
interest.
AT Sitter everything has been ar
ranged with the view of full measure
of enjoyment for each and every one
who shall make this his objective point
on that day. Messrs. Ed Nj. Lowry and
III. Buchner Will crate and leave nothing
to be desired in this portion of the exer-
cises. A full programme is presented
elsewhere.
Cassville, as usual when its citizens
undertake anything of the kind, has
gone in to win and presents a program
which leaves but little to be desired in
the way Of Fourth of July entertain
ment. Nothing will be found lacking
which can in any way add to the pleas
ure of the day, and those who make the
charming little village their stopping
place on the Fourth will have no rea son
to regret their selection. The exercises
will wind up with dance at the Den
niston House in the evening, such as
only Moore knows how to engineer.
This is of itself no mean attraction and
will prove a big card in the round of fes-
tivitieS.
PotoSi is by no means behind hand.
but presents an elaborate programme
of unusual attractions, and one which is
hard to beat. The order of exercises
covers the whole day, leaving the visit
or no chance to suffer from dullness
The orator of the day is r. c. Orr,
whose reputation as q speaker ensures 9
rare treat to those present. Good music
has been secured and every arrangement
made for a good, old fashioned celebra.
ton, in which line Potosi has already
achieved an enviable reputation.
At Platteville the day will be observed
in fitting manner, with an excellent
programme of exercises.
Wyalusing, although last, is by nc
means the least in the proper observance
of independence Day, but will wake the
echoes of the bluffs with most enjoya-
BILE celebration. just what is to be done
is not known at present writing, bu
| there need be no fear that it will not bt
commensurate with the occasion.
With SO large list from which to Sc
lect Grant County residents should have
no trouble in finding place in which
to do honor to the day and give pleasur,
to themselves. Wherever they may g
a hearty welcome will be waiting, witt
every provision for individual comfor
afterwards.
