After Thirteen Years.
4 MornER RECEIVES TIpINGs or HER Two
i.osr CHILDREN.

Thirteen years ago John Kelley lived with
his pretty young wife and their two children
at No. 1920 Federal street. As time wore on
John took fancy to the nearest drinking
house, and then it was the wife's troubles
began. Kelly became infatuated with one
Cate Hennesey to whom he proposed an elope-
ment. The woman readily consented, and
one July night, while Mrs Kelly was attend
ing to some household duties, her two
daughters mysteriously disappeared from her
doorstep, where she had left them but few
moments before. The distracted mother
searched high and low for her missing ones.
but no trace of them could be discovered.
For II years she mourned for her children
and husband as dead
At the expiration of this time Kelly became
sick in Omaha, Neb.. and applied 10 some
Philadelphia societies for aid. This coming
to the knowledge of Mrs. Kelly. she visited
Attorney Druen, her counsel, who took active
steps to lay bare the facts. 1t was learned
that Kelly was living with the iiennesey
woman as his wife, and the two children
were with them. Mrs. Kelly thereupon be-
gan proceedings to regain possession of her
children. In the meantime Kelly died and
Mrs. Kelly No. visited Washington and
swore she was the legal wife Of the deceased.
thus procuring IA pension to which Kelly was
entitled. The authorities have since been
notified of the true state of affairs, and the
1ennesey female is likely to rue the day she
went to Washington. Thus the case stands
1t is probable that the mother and her long
lost daughters will be soon brought together.

The blood is the foundation Of
life. ii circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich. good health is impossible
If disease has entered the system
the onLy sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich The
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood TO its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
BRoWN' IRON BITTERs will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with

Now that the apple season of 1sSl-s2
in Maine is past. one thing becomes very
evident; our apple-growers, either pur-
posely, or through carelessness. have not
generally put up their apples so well as
they should have. Too many old rickety
barrels have been used. The fruit has
not as rule been pressed into the barrels
solid enough. But the main difficulty has
been in the sorting. Too many small ap-
pies and too many large wormy ones have
been put in, while oftentimes those specked
with rot have helped to fill up the barrel
We fear that in many instances this in
ferior fruit has been put in purposely.
That it is great temptation we donot deny,
butit is a suicidal policy for the grower and
penny wise and pound foolish way of do
ing business. Even now Maine apples do
not stand so well in the Boston markets
and in English markets as apples from
other States, and Canadian fruit has a
much better reputation than Maine
Accordingly Maine apples must be sold a,

Childhood.

The qualities which are the most at
tactive in childhood are not by any
means the most valuable in maturity.
We look for determination, decision of
character, firmness in the man, and re :
fuse him our respect if he have them not.
But, when the child exhibits these
qualities, even in their incipient stages,
we are annoyed and even repulsed. In
stead of rejoicing in his strength of will,
and guiding it into right channels, we
lament it as grievous fanlt in him and
misfortune to us. It is the meek and
yielding child who cares not to decide
anything for himself in whom we de-
light, and whose feeble will we make
still feebler by denying it all exercise.
Yet. when he grows up and enters the
world and yields to temptation, and per-
haps disgraces himself and family, we
look at him in imbecile wonder that so
good a child should turn out to be SO
bad a man, when, in truth, his course
has been only the natural outcome of his
past life and training.

HORRIBLE MURDER AT GRACEv1LLE

4 Father and Son Riddled Nth Bullets
lOrtonville, Mimi, Herald, Dec. 14.1
Last Tuesday Ortonville was, startled by
the rumor that terrible murder had been
committed in Graceville, located twenty
miles from this place. The coroner, Dr.,
McMurphey, Sheriff Randall, County At
torney Grant and the subscriber started at
once for the scene of the tragedy. On ar
irving there the following facts we're
learned: Monday night between IL and
II o'clock Marshal Noohan, of Graceville,
notified Canty's bar keeper to close up and
he did so, but in short time he opened
again. Noonan returned and finding John
Callahan there and slightly under the in
duence of liquor, attempted to arrest him.
Callahan resisted and they commenced to
scuffie, when Bait, thirteen year old son
of John Callahan, called on a young man
who lives near them in the country, by
name of John Morris, to come and part
them. Morris came and demonstrated with
Noonan and said he would take Callahan
home if he would allow him to 90.
Noonan would not do this but con-
tinued to strike him. Morris then steppe6
up and struck and knocked down the mar
shall. Callahan was then freed and he and
his little son went to their wagon, got in
and started for home. They had only pro-
ceeded few yards when a man ran up be-
hind them and fred at them. Callahan
fell over backwards in the wagon. Another
shot was fired, taking effect in the child's
thigh. He jumped from the wagon and
let the team go. Several more
shots were fred from the same
direction, in succession. The boy
commenced to cry for help, and
the man who had done the shooting disap-
peared. The little fellow was taken to a
house near by and several men started
after the team. They found them about
three miles toward home with John Gala
han lying in the wagon dead. He was
taken back and put in an Office, and moth
ing was done until about noon the next
day. j. NJ. Cunningham came after the
proper officers. and when they got
there, City Marshal Noonan had ar
rested John Morris and Thos. Spell
lane, bar keeper at Canty's saloon. The
inquest revealed the facts that Callahan
had been shot twice in the head. both balls
taking effect on the left temple. One
seemed to have struck him as he was fall
ing or after he was down. Bait is a BRIGHT
boy of thirteen, and now lies in danger
Gus condition, with two wounds in the back
and thigh. The one in the thigh passed
through but the one in the back came ont
After the examination the two
prisoners were allowed their
liberty and Noonan was arrested,
The night was dark and the boy could not
see who fired the shots, but the facts as
they came before the coroner's inquest
look very damaging to Noonan. He
claimed at tst that he knew nothing
about who fired the shots, but afterward
when recalled 1--WE have just learned) he
admitted that he didn't know whether he
had revolver in his hand or not. The
citizens of Graceville are bound the mat
ter shall be thoroughly investigated This
is one of the most atrocious crimes we have
yet had to chronicle.

Edward 8. Lacey.

Mr.. Lacey, the Representative in
Congress from the Third district, is one
OF the most popular men of Michigan
and made his mark in the present Con-
gress by his introduction of several inn
portant measures, among others the
Postal Savings Bank, which yet will be
enacted into laws. He is thoroughly
versed IN. financial questions, and has
made himself heard on such subjects.
We are, therefore, not surprised to
learn OF his unanimous denomination
by the Republicans of the Third dis
trict by rising vote. This compli-
ment IS followed by the election of Mr..
Lacey by unanimous vote to the
Craftsmanship Of the Republican State
Committee, as the successor of Gov.
Baldwin. This is still another and
greater compliment to Mr.. Lacey's pop
ularlty and leadership in the Repub-
hcan hosts.
Mr.. Lacey is native of Monroe coun-
tv, n. Y, where he was born in 1885
and removed to this State with his par
ents in 1912. In 1858 Mr.. Lacey was
salesman of store in Kalamazoo; Dep
uty Register of Deeds of Eaton count
In 1857, and elected Register in 1860,
In 1862 he embarked in banking in the
city of Charlotte, and in 1871 he be-
came cashier of the Citizens National
Bank of that city. In 1874 he was ap-
pointed one of the Trustees of the Kali
amazoo Insane Asylum. He was a
member of the Republican National
Convention of 1876, and was for num-
Der of years an active member of the
Republican State Committee. In 1880
he was chosen to Congress by a plural
ity of 11,526 over Eugene Pringle
Oem.). This was the largest plurality
given for any Congressional candidate
In the State.
Mr.. Lacey is not great orator, but
Is good worker and business member
OF Congress-faithful to the interests
Of his constituents and the great State
he represents, incompatible and vigil
ant. He will be tr;umphantly re-chosen
to the seat in Congress he has filed so
honorably and creditably. He is bed
rock Republican, and he has never
swerved from the principles of the
great party which was formed under
the oaks at Jackson in 1854. -Lansi7aq
