Another Diseased Mind.

The following exeruciating parody
on wit glittered among the intellectual
journalistic gems Of the editorial page
in Thursdays Repository:
I'm Offering your thanks for the en-
laTged and improved Repository, send
up a silent prayer that the new Daily
Democrat may die an easy death, as 1T
has done before, so that it may again
be resurrected, and we may meet it
again some day"
While reading the above paragraph
we could hardly refrain from bursting
Into real loud peal of laughter, so ir-
Tesistably funny was the humOr con-
tanned in it. We predict for the genius
who penciled that pungent paragraph
a sudden dissolution of all earthly ties
from an acute attack of funnyism, or
else slow death in some asylum for
feeble-minded humOTists. In the mean
time we would caution all good people
to be on the lookout for this pitiabIe
offspring of the enlarged and imprOv-
ed" Repository, and to offer up ISL
lent prayer" for his speedy return to an
enlarged and improved" condition of
mental health.

MassillOn has been at the mercy of
gang of thieves for the past few days,
and the scoundrels have performed their
nefariOuS work in an astOnishingly
bold and reckless manner. On Monday
night, Mrs. Lucy MerWin, a widow, and
her fOurteen-year old daughter were
awakened about midnight to find two
masked men, with revOlvers, standing
over them, and threats were made to kill
them if an Outcry was given. Other
members of the family were aroused,
and thelthieves decamped with satchel
of an older daughter, containing So and
the keys of the schOOl-rOOm over which
she presides. Mrs. Merwin has been an
invalid for year, and the attending
physicians report tonight that the shock
to her system was so severe as to cause
fears of her recovery from its effects.
The door of the new German Catholic
Cathedral was next forced, and the box
for contributions for the poor robbed of
about $40 in small change. Then the
saloon of WendOf KOehler was visited
but the proprietor heard them cutting
the shutter-slats, and fred pistol four
times through the window at them, the
thieves replying with an equal number
of shots. George CaulPs saloon was also
professionally called upon, and at the
muZZle of a revolver the proprietor was
compelled to stand by and watch the
thieves gorge themselves with food and
drinks.
Three hard looking cases were arrest
ed ON suspicion Tuesday afternoon, and
although missing property from the re-
cent burglaries here was not found on
them, they were loaded down with
jewelry, poeket-knives, silk handker-
chiefs and various other articles, evil
IDENTIFY stolen elsewhere. They will be
held several days for Identification.

BOSSISM EXPOSED.
The City Ring and Some of Its
Peculiar Transactions.
A Taxpayers Caustic Review Of Some
Recent IObs-FOOd for
Thought.

EDITOR DEMoCRAT-Last week atten-
tiOn was called to MillhOf's jObbery in
county matters. From his silence,
where silence means confession, 1t
would seem that he has nothing to say
in his defence, and that he admits the
truth of the statements made. But the
boss was not satisfied with his county
jObbery, he sees a field of jObbery in the
city, in connection with his coal yard.
Here, however, he is not OmniDOtent as
in county matters, and hence needs the
assistance of ring. A contractor, who
is also an influential politician, becomes
his right bower. The contractor who
built the building for the steam heater
at the Court House, which has a history
also. This contractor knew his man,
and so, when this heater building was
advertised, he put in two bids on the
same day, which are now on file in the
Auditors office. He would not dare to
do 80 unless in pursuance of previous
arrangement with the boss. The bids
were each for the whole job, except the
heating apparatus, but in different
sums. OF course he got the contract,
and on his highest bid, viz: 1925, II.
But the records show he has already
been paid the sum of 81, 500 81, ,224, more
than his bid, and the end is not yet. OF
course this contractor Is solid with the
OOss, ana uses MS STONE, nOG only IN Ine
heater building, but elsewhere; and be-
ing the main beneficiary ana leader or
the city ring, the boss and the city ring
are formed into a mutual AID society,
and lay siege TO the council for coal
contract tOr MlllhOf.
OppOrtunely there are Two vacancies
in the Council, one vacancy being for
only period of five months. But the
boss and his right bower carry on
campaign, which for yigOr and zeal Is
never equailed, even in Presidential
campaign, and OF course elect their
men. But the boss still fears he may be
one vote short in the Council, and this
fear transforms him into an asthete.
He becomes a lover OF the beautiful; his
very soul now loathes the walls and
ceilings of the pubic offices, though
well painted not very long ago. A sim
gle coat would have answered every
purpose, except that of the boss. But
his asthetic soul cannot rest until these
offices are beautitied and decorated, with
an extravaganza unparalleled, In this
state at least.
OF course Councilman gets this job
and he, though a Democrat, Is solid for
MillhOf, Republican, and now the boss
gets the contract for supplying the city
with coal.
And now the boss turns to the lnhrm-
aTy, which OF all things should. be free

A Wen Known Boston Divine Expires
During Public Prayer.

BOsTON, Nov. ga sad and startling
interruption TO the Thanksgiving SER
vices of the Congregational Church in
East Boston this morning was the sud-
den death of Warren H. Cud worth, ID. D.,
while in the act of public prayer.
Though a Unitarian he was Of such
catholic spirit as TO unite with the or
thOdOX people in their service for the
day, and the sermon was to have been
preached by the pastor of the latter.
Mr.. CudwOTth had Just begun the
opening prayer when he was overcome
by an apOplectic attack. He only said:
81 must stop" and fell to the floor. In
an instant he was dead. Though in ap-
parent good health, Mr.. CudwOrth had a
premOnition of early death for some
time past, as he had said to friends that
he felt he had not much longer to live.
He was probably the best known and
most popular minister in or near Boston.
He had been settled in East Boston since
1852, and with the exception of three
years in the army as chaplain of the first
Massachusetts Regiment and one year
spent in trip around the world, he had
lived there all this time. He was the
idol of his regiment, and has had hold
on the soldiers since the war such as no
other man possessed. He was good
man in every sense and universally be-
loved. On the occasion of his departure
for Europe thousands of people went to
the steamship dock to bid him goodbye,
and his reception on his return was q
grand ovation. He was born in Lowell
in 1925, and graduated from Harvard in

only asleep, with the form outlined un-

ing position; but firmly clasped in both
hands and pressed to the face, now dis
cOlOTed from the effects of the drug,was
a bottle held tightly in death as 1t had
been held in life. The face was nearly
buried in the pillow and the body so
tiff and cold that DR.. Russell, who was
called, was unable to change its posi-
tiOn. rhe story was easily and quickly
told. The woman, Mrs. Lena Davis, had
returned home from walk down town
at about 10 o'clock, and Immediately re-
tired. At 9 o'clock yesterday morning
she was called by friends in the house,
but failing to respond, the room was en-
tered, and the lifeless form was found
in the same immOyable position as at
present it lies. Mrs. Davis has been in
the habit of taking the drug for several
years, and with the devotion of those
confirmed in the habit, nothing could
induce her to quit it. Several times it
has been feared she would take OyerdO-
ses. The woman is married, her husband
being conductor on the Lake Shore
road. Coroner IsOm held an inquest,
and is fully satisfied there was no inten-
