Abandons her ohl,drsn

GALVESTON, Aug. is.-lspecial, 1.-The
flight Of Mrs William NJ. Edwardy from
Bryan, whore she was stopping with friends,
leaving her two children behind, has pro-
duced considerable comment here, where
the lady was well-known. Her husband,
the editor OF the Commercial Gazette, pub.
hshed by the Galveston Publishing com.
pany, received telegram from his wife
Thursday, announcing her departure, and
requesting him TO come TO Bryan and take
caro- OF this children. Mr. ElWardy left for
Bryan rs soon as possible, and learning the
direction taken by his wife, has gone in
pursuit. The most charitable construction
TO place upon the sad affair is that Mrs
Edwardy must have been laboring under
temporary alteration OF mind at the time
or she could not have willfully LEFT her two
little children, TO whom she was most de
vOiedly attached.

KOSHKONONG PLACE.

Under the above caption the Fort Att
kinson correspondent of the Inter Ocean
sends that paper the following account
Of the recent markee improvements
which have taken place in the old Lake
View property.
There has been recently organized a
club of substantial citizens ofChicago
and Milwaukee. for the purpose of duck
shooting, fishing and recreation. They
purchased the Lake View property on
the east bank of Koshkonong Lake. Tt
is really one of the finest places in Wis
consin, and can not be excelled any,
where for fine and magnificent views of
lake and woods. There are some eighty
acres of the land, with beautiful sIop-
ing front on the lake, with a sand and
gravel shore for the whole front. 1t was
evidently once the rendezvous of an an
Gent people, as the whole tract is more
or less occupied with these ancient
mounds which so mystify scientists. The
lake abounds in fish of different varie>
ties, prominent among which are pike,
bass and pickerel. Ducks are plenty in
their season, and this is favorite resort
of the celebrated canvas-b back. The club
have rearranged aud fitted up for their
private use the old Lake View House.

OHIO AND IOWA.

No elections held in some years has
created as much interest and excitement
as those which occurred yesterday in
Ohio and Iowa. In the former state Off
GERS and legislature were elected and
in the latter state officers, legislature and
Supreme Judge were chosen. The news
this morning is 50 meagre as to leave the
result of the Ohio election in some
doubt with the probabilities in favor OF
the'election of Hoadley, democrat, gov
ernor, and democratic legislature. In
Iowa the Republicans make clean
sweep, electing Sherman, governor,
the Supreme Judge and securing a
large majority of the legislature, which
will reflect Allison United States Sena

PERPLEXING ILLNESS AMONG Chill
DREN The town of Mount Pleasant,
O., is in great tribulation over an cpl
demic among !the children, which has
only recently broken out. The singular
part of it is that none of the doctors can
either name or control it, and few have
pronounced it entirely different from
anything they ever knew. 1t confines
itself to children, and seems to resemble
scarlet fever, but battles all remedies.
Children take it and die within forty
eight hours, and it seems to lbe contag-
ious. Since it made its appearance four
and fifteen are now down with the di>
sease, while one physician has declared
he will not attend case, as it is entirely
beyond his knowledge and power. Our
informant says the town is in quitesan ex,
element over it, and the people are anx-
iously awaiting the arrival of physicians
summoned from other places Wheeling

JAY-EYE-SEE AND HIS RECORD.

AYE I E-SEE AND HIS RECOKlJ,,
Many questions having been asked as
the st. Julien's age and performances, as
well as the history OF Jay-Eye-See's rise
and progress, a repetition of the career of
the horses at this time will be of interest.
Jay-Eye-See is black gelding, fifteen
hands one inch high. He was toaled in
1878. He is son OF the old campaigner
Dictator, dam Midnight, by Pilot, Jr.
His first public performance was as f.
year old in Chicago, July Is, 1882, when
he met Bronze, Waiting, and other fast
trotters in a gain struggle which requir-
ed seven heats to finish. He took the
fifth and sixth heats with record Of
2:2234, but lost the trot to Waiting. Sept.
%, 1882, at the same place, he distin-
guished himself by trotting the third and
fourth heats in 2:19, winning the stakes
for 3year-olds and wIping out the f.
year-old record of Trinket that had stood
for three years. He reawakened public
attention this year by appearing at
Louisville on May IL in match against
Charley Ford. Jay Eye-See won in
three straight heats-2:28H, 2:28, g.
2715. At the Gentleman's Driving,
June %, he won the purse of $4,000 for
5-Year-olds, trotting the second heat in
2:19A. 1t will be remembered that in
the first quarter of the third heat John
Murphy and Phil Thompson and Charley
Green and his horse were all mixed in a
heap on the track while endeavoring to
overtake the Western wonder. At AL
bany, week later, he won the 5-year-
old stakes, making 2:19H again. A few
days after, on the same track, while trot-
ting to beat the 5-year-old record of
Santa Claus, 2:18, he made 2:16a, on
the third attempt On the Fourth of
July in Washington, he won the 3D.
arold purse in straight heats, beating
Bronze and Phil Thompson, in 2:19,
2:23. At Chicago, July q, he won the
5-year-old stakes in three straight heats,
trottiug the last in 2:19.
Entering the grand circuit, the little
horse went on conquering all competi-
tors, including time. At the opening
meeting in Pittsburgh he captured the
special $4,000 purse in one, two, and
three order, making the second heat in
2.17. At Cleveland, in match with
Majolica, the son of Startle, that made
an unparalleled record of 2;17 for green
horse, in Gentleman's Driving Park,
during the June meeting, Jay-Eye-See
came out victorious, with record of
2:7514. In trot at Buffalo for veal
olds and under, he won handily without
exerting himself, his best heat being
2:1S14. At.Rochester, against time, he
won in 2:14. In attempting to lower
this on a rather cold and windy day at
Hartford, he fell half second short, but
at Providence a week later he brought
the 5-year-old record down to 5:1016
coming within half a second of Maud
S s record. In Mystic Park, Boston
Sept. 20, he trotted a mile in 2:11A.
In Beacon Park, in the same city, on
tuesday of this week, he trotted under
unfavorable conditions in 2:1715, and on
the following day made 2;1516-NeU
York Sun.

Where Water Is rs Precious as Gold.

Flagstaff a year ago was an unre-
deemed Inferno; now it is for the most
part quiet and of good repute. L. owes
its permanency to the timber business.
From Northwestern Arizona down 10 the
southeast into Western New Mexico
stretches a vast belt of magnificent pine
forest. Here the belt is cut by the rail-
road just under the shadow of the San
Francisco Mountains. The trees are Of
extraordinary height, straight and huge
in their proportions. Between them
there is no undergrowth-all is clear
and open. Here and there the openings
widen out into beautiful natural parks,
clothed with a rich growth of grass. No
finer cattle country could be imagine,
save for the lack Of water.
Water is almost literally IS precious
as gold. Men 20 out prospecting for
springs just as the miner searches for
Groupings of ore. He who secures 8
spring can control thousands of acl 3
OF land. But the springs are few. oft.a
small, and not always Trustworthy.
The Little Antelope Spring, which SUI
plies the cluster of cabins hard b.,
sometimes runs dry. Then water IS
hauled in barrels for miles and sold like
any other commodity. The saw-mill,
which runs out a hundred thousand
feet of lumber q day to supply a con
tract of 3 1900, 600 feet for the Mexican
Central Railway, is run by steam pow
er. Yet. for this it is necessary to pump
the water in pipes from springs nlne
miles away. AT WinsIaw the railroad
company sunk an artess well l7W

Fork they sunk another well, when
proved a failure.

CHARACTERISTIC PRAYER offered by
Elder Littlejohn in 1850: ooh, Lord,
there is great wickedness and rising

Thy blessln. Now, Milwaukee, just
sprung up, is bad; Chicago, another
mushroom, is worse. Yet do Thou,
Lord, bless and improve them. Then
there is Michigan City, a place Of sand
and whisky, and Caporte, Of mud and
wickedness and indeed, they need Thy
blessing. And there is South Bend,
and also Niles, which think, themselves
righteous. Lord, they need Thy bless
ing. And here is Mishawaka, which
boasts itself something, but has nothing
but self-righteousness. Good Lord
open its eyes, that it may receive Thy
blessing Then we have Elkhart, and
Bristol, and Mottville-little things,
but wicked. Do, Lord, bless them.
Then, pausing for breath, and raising
his voice to it's highest pitch: ''-And
lastly, then, dear, good Lord, even bless
