tory services occasioned by the installa-

Parties from few miles east of Au-
rora report very sad death that occurred
in their town last Sunday night at 10
o'clock. The deceased was Abey Alsip,
aged about II years, son of A. III. sAlsip,
one of the leading citizens of Alton
township. Some three weeks prior to his
death, the young man received internal
injuries while wrestling on the school
grounds. He was Immediately taken
sick, and after intense suffering and ago
ny for many days, he was relieved by
death. The deceased was bright boy
and was widely known for his intclli-
gence and beautiful traits of character.
His habits were so correct that they were
noticed by all. The loss falls heavily on
his father and mother, of whom he was
their pride and hope. Death at best is
sad, but when it invadcs home and takes
from it as bright and loveable boy as
Abbey Alsip, it becomes doubly painful
and severe.-Brooklngs ID T)Press, Feb

will deeply .sympathize with them in

A Compact.

The Salt Lake Tribune is Of the
opinion that there is q compact be-
tween the Democracy and the Nor
mons to the effect that the De-
mocracy will pledge itself to make
Utah State if the church will put
mp a handsome SUM of money to
be used where it will do the most
good, and asserts that it has posi-
tive knowledge that such an agree
ment was made with Hancock ard
would be re ratified next year. That
the Mormons are naturally Demo
cratic is evident, and it is also evil
dent that they are anxious to have
Utah become a State, because under
State Government they would be
much freer from interference. Re
publicans would do we'll to keep
an eye ON this little game and
checkmate it.

terrible piece of criminal reckless
ness on the par; Of the MARSHAL,
which resulted in the killing of
three school children, has just
come to light. Some three weeks
ago Deputy Marshal Mershon, with
q posse, was looking for two muir
derers in the Chickasaw nation,
near Red river. The murderers
were supposed to be at certain
honse and just before daylight the
officers surrounded the place. The
woman of the house, with two
children, II and l6 years of age re-.
spectively, was sleeping out under
the trees, owing to the heat of the
night, and third child, only nine
nears old, was sleeping in the
house. The Marshal on riding up
woke them. and they, supposing
that 80 me drunken Indians were
oarousing around. ran for the house
TO barri JADE themselves. The Mar
shall, without waiting for further
investigation to see whether they
were the parties wanted. opened
fire on them, killing both Of the
children and wounding the woman.
They then rushed into the house
and seeing the other child lying
there in the dim light, shot and
killed her.
On seeing their mistake the Mar
shall and party left and reported
that they had killed three desper-
ADDE'S, but the facts have just come
ont. The Chickasavs are greatly
excited over it and are determined
to sift the matter to the bottom.

sore appeared, and finally became SO
alarming In its nature that yesterday Mr..
Hall sought q physician. The latter
found sore nearly as large as q silver
dollar and so hard that it was with heavy
pressure that he could push a knife
through. He made two incisions, and
sought for the head of the woodtick, but
could not find it. He informed Mr.. Hall
that the sore is very serious in its nature,
being nothing more nor less the beginning
of a cancer He further says that unless
suppuration sets in and throws out the
bin of the tick in few days all the de-
seascd flesh of the arm must be cut ont.
Mr.. Hall may yet have serious trouble
with 1t. It is such a common occurrence
to find woodticks on the person, that few
know their danger. After woodtick
once secures hold nothing but sharp
knife can dislodge it. Its bill is long,
sharp highly poisonous and is provided
with tarbs that render its withdrawal
impossible; so that the common use OF
turpentine or a lighted match is simply
waste of time. Even though the tick
drops off or be removed, his bill remains,
the bark holding it firmly An incision
with a sharp knife and close hunt for
the remaining bill is the only method for
removing it. These woodticks are so
destructive that they can soon kill colt
o.. other young animals, and several loss es
of this kind have occurred In this county.

CHICAGO, May 1T.-An order was Is
sued a few weeks ago by Mayor Harrison tina
after May IS all the prostitutes and disreputa
bic people occupying houses or rooms OF
State street Wabash aad Michigan avenues
and Clark street, as FIR south as Polk must seel
other and more congenial quarters This order
vas promulgated by Supt Doyle and tht
~lisreps" ON the thoroughfare mentioned were
personally notified by Detectives Murnane and
Amstein that they must move on In regara
% the enforcement of the order Supt Doyle
expressed determination to push the matter
through and carry it out strictly to the letter,
stating that ii the women had not o5eyed the
order on the 18TH the places would be faided,
and the raiding kept up until life was made a
burden to them Accordingly, yesterday being
the 10th, the first raid was made last night.
Seven places on State street were visited,
aud several buildings that were known TO have
been occupied by the class called ~roomers"
were thoroughly searched, but not a woman of
any kind was discovered in any of them Not
an arrest was made, and no one who could
possibly be included IN the mayors order WAS
found in or about the twelve or thirteen diff
ferent localities visited. Everything else, how
ever, was there, and each place had all the ac-
cessories of prostitution except its yotaries
The opinion seems TO be that this class of
people have taken a brief spring vacation
At each one of the places the "landlady" was
found, and III reply to the questions pro-
pounded, the lnNafldDle reply was ! nave re-
tired from the business entirely, and keep no
lady boarders." SoIze of them had gone so
far as to hang up placards with the words:
Rooms to Rent to Gentlemen Only" The
police retired in good order, but apparently
were somewhat sore over their fIultless rad
The keepers of disreputabe houses, they say,
are trying to outwt them temporarily, imagin
ing that the order VIII be enforced only lor a
short time, after which the vigilance will be
relaxed The police declare, however, that the
scheme will not work, and that arrests will be
made whenever it becomes apparent that the
order has been violated
