Reno vaI of N0shOtah Seminary

For some time a movement has been
under consideration by a plumber of
Northwestern Bishops of the Episcopal
Church, with their natural Metropolitan,
the Bishop of Chicago, for the establish
ment here of a general theological semi
nary for this whole region, and for the
first time in print the news can be given
that Nashotah Seminary, Wisconsin, is
to be removed here, and around this his
toric if struggling nucleus large vigor-
ious, and handsomely endowed theologi-
cal school will straightway be built up.
The matter has passed beyond the range
of conjecture and probability. Only
facts are recorded. One layman of Chi
cago, the munifcent DR.. Tolman c.
Wheeler, has now added to his former
notable generosity to bishopric and bish>
op the splendid gift Of nearly quarter
of a million dollars to establish the new
seminary, and other wealthy church

JUDGMENT REVERSED. - The judg-
ment of Ida 81. Robinson and Byron
Fl. Robinson against the city of Wa
tertown for $4,000 on account of
alleged injuries by fall of a derrick on
Main street bridge, was set aside yester-
day by the Supreme Court at Madison
upon the writ of error sued out by our
city to get it reversed. The only ground
upon which the reversal was demanded
was that the suit was attempted to be
commenced on the part of the Robinsons
by service, by the sheriff, of the sum-
mons and complaint upon the chairman
of the Board of Street Commissioners
while the Board was in session. The
reversal shows that the supreme court
holds that such service .on the chairman
is illegal.

County Circuit Court here, Judge Ben

The Cotton Mills were victorious against

defendants to lower their dam and fume.
The attorneys in tie case were Edward
Villas, of Madison, for plaintiff and
Messrs. Lander, d. Hall, I. G. Sloan and
A K. Delaney for defendants The re-
suit is another illustration of the reluct-
ance OF courts and jurors to disturb long
established mill dams. In this case the
dam was built in 1849. Additional flow
age was alleged butthe jury found it was
due to the increased rainfall of this last
season.

The Fate Of 81 Runaway Girl.

Milwaukee, Wis, Special. 1t will be
remembered that the telegraph some
six weeks ago reported the elopement
ofthe daughter of a wealthy citizen OF
Concord, N. H., named Burton, with a
travelling man. Burton is a banker and
prominent railroad man, and the loss
of his only daughter in this way was a
great blow. After spending large sum
for an official inquiry regarding the elop-
ing couple, the heart-broken father and
mother determined to set out and try
and find them, if possible, Mr.. Burton
arranged his business to this end. Four
weeks ago Monday they started out and
nave visited all the prominent cities be-
tween Chicago and New York. Last
Saturday in Chicago, after having made
preparations to return to their home,
the father and mother heard of young
couple answering the description of the
missing pair having bought tickets for
Milwaukee. They Immediately started
for Milwaukee, arriving here Saturday.
They called on superintendent White
head of the Humane society and stated
their case. That gentleman set TO work
and had the pleasure Of restoring the
runaway daughter, whom he had found
occupying room in tenement house.
She had been deserted by her betrayer
and was in want. The meeting between
parents and daughter vas an affecting
one. The three started for their Con-
cord home.

growing two miles daily. Tax is 80 cents
on each 81 900. There are I,250,000 in

worth 40 per cent premium. and the

East.bOund Traffic.

In view Of the fact that the bulk ofthe
east. bound traffic is being carried by a
ew Of the roads, numerous charges have
been made that these roads were either
directly cutting rates or giving a rebate
at the east end. 1t is now claimed that
all of this talk has been the result Of
scheme to break the pool by either con-
tentrating the bulk of the shipments
upon one or two roads or leaving about
the same number with practically no
traffic, as complaints would become so
frequent as to create such dissatisfaction
as would cause withdrawal Of some of
the lines, and the making of such rates
as would take traffic away from the pool
lines. In frtherance Of this view, 1t is
charged that shippers have selected
what roads they will favor, and are
steadily pursuing course that is be-
lieved to be rapidly making trouble,
which will be the basis Of a dissolution
of the pool, and cause war of rates
that will be as severe as that of

A Destructive HOOsier Cyclone

Richmond, Ind, Special, The reports
of the tornado that passed south of this
city have not been exaggerated. The
town Of Waterloo, in Fayette county, suf-
fered more, perhaps, than any other To-
cality. 1t consisted Of nineteen new
houses and complement of barns, sta
bles. shops and ou,buildings. The resi-
dents had from three to five minutes no.
tice of the storms approach, and were
enabled to take refuge in their cellars, SO
that few of them were injured and none
killed outright, but every house but one
was beaten down by falling timber or
blown away by the wind. The place
looks as though it had passed through a
long siege and had been moved down
by shot and shell. The work Of Gestruc
ton was all accomplished in less than
two minutes, and those who had been
rendered 'houseless could stand and
watch the work of destruction going on
to the east Of them in perfect safety.
Wooden bridges were swept away like
paper. Twenty-Five barns were unroos-
ed in that part of the country. Score,
of lives would have been destroyed had
it not been for the timely roaring Of the
wind

How He Caught His Clerks.

A merchant who kept three clerks,
each one Of whom made his own change
and had free access to the money
drawers, was the other day asked by Q
commercial traveller why he did not keep
q cashier to receive all moneys? "Cost
too much," was the reply. "But are
your clerks honest?" Perfectly hon.
est" "Have you any objection to my
trying them?" Certainly not; 90 ahead
in any way you wish" The traveller
went away, but in about three hours he
returned. and said in q loud voice 90
that all might hear: "When was here
this morning paid you bogus quarter
by mistake. In case you find it i'm count
ing up tonight, lay It aside, and I'll re-
deem it, Then the traveller, accom-
panied by the merchant, took position
wnere the back door and the ailey could
be kept in view, and in less than ten
minutes ont came the head clerk and
emptied handful Of silver on the head
Of barrel, and paved il over. The bo-
gus quarter was not there. He returned
TO the store and out came second clerk.
and went through the same programmes.
He was followed by third, and after he
disappeared the merchant calmly oh
served: "Pve been waiting thirteen
years for trade to pick up, and rather
guess I'll try the cashier system"
