Piles are frequently preceded by a

indigestion are present, as fatuency,
uneasiness f the stomach, etc. A

a very disagnable itching, particularly
at night after getting warm in bed, is
very common attendant. Internal,

TRUTH ENOUGH.

THE River Falls Journal Jan. 25.l
"We took occasion ON Tuesday
morning last to make brief visit to
the Normal School We were more
than pleased with our observations.
1t has now been seven years since this
school was instituted among us. Al
though the youngest, it is regarded
by leading educators, as we are cred
itably informed, as abreast with any
Of the Normals of State. At the out
set it was criticised as being ovor-ex
acting in the graduation of applicants
for admission, many being disappointed
and going home. The fault, however
lay in their nnsymmetrical and super
fetal acquisitions and their slip-shod
training On the other hand it is a
well-known fact, that whenever pupils
of any length of experience at the
Normal have been noted for their
high standing in their classes. It is
matter of universal comment among
teachers of colleges to which pupils
from here have gone, that their men,
tai and moral training is at once no.
ticeable. That the moral influence
of the school upon the members is
unusual, is conclusivcly evidenced by
the fact that the community is never
troubled with Irregularities of the
students. We never hear of misde-
meanors by them either in or out of
school. This is very unlike the ex-
perience of communities gererrlly
where schools are located in their
midst that bring together large num-
Der of young people from abroad
Schools that are instituted by churches
and hold themselves out to toe world
as nurseries of pity and morality, as
a rule, caDnot stand for a moment in
comparison with this in the moral de-
pertinent of their pupils. This all
means that our Normal School makes
character as we'll as imparts learnis.
In fine, if accuracy Of thought, con-
oiseness and preciseness of expression,
breadth and theughtfalness in all sub
jects grappled with, promptnes and
regularity in habits, aud the incula-
ton Of earnestuess and high purpos in
life, are the object of school, the in
stitution of which we speak ought to
satisfy its patrons"

Developments in the Scheller case.
The prisoner cannot be seen by any
one besides his wife and his lawyers
The Jail officials say that he bears his
Imprisonment well, and has repeatedly
declared that he would not care at all
about the charges brought against him
were it not for his aged mother, his
wife and little ones. Scheller's friends
claim that the next few days will
bring forth developments which will
startle the community and place the
blame in regard to the Newhall House
fire where it belongs It is certain
that Scheller's attorneys are working
some kind of a clue with the aid of
two Chicago detectives, and it is un-
derstood that this clue will reveal the
whereabouts Of the hotel register and
transfer book. In connection with
the books it is claimed that it will be
conclusively shown why they were alb
stracted. Scheller's attorneys claim
that they can explain every thing sat
isfaetorilY, and that Scheller's arrest
was indirectly caused BY his own eff

No human mind is contentented
with out occupation. No human soul
is without an aim or purpose in life.
The greatest success in life consists
not in mere accumulation of riches,
but in being able to acquire wealth
with disposition to apply it in such
manner that it shall be a blessing to
to others-not in the mere giving
away of money but in putting people
in way to labor and help themselves.
There is no pleasure in grinding and
extricating gold from the poor but
there is great deal of genuine sat
isfaction in being able to offer steady
and honorable employment to the many
willing hands that have nothing to do
One Of the greatest enjoymsnts of the
prosperous business man consists in
being able to provide for the many
employees in his house or manufac-
tory. In doing this he is fulfilling
his obligation to society; ne becomes
useful and honored citizen business
to him is real pleasure /; he enjoys
his success, when they are fairly won,
because he feels that he deserves
them. When a man has the right
kind of purpose in life he alwayf en-
joys his occupation. He feels just
and worthy pride in his PROSPERITY, he
is pleased with the respect and graf
itude of those whom he directs and
controls in the management of his
affairs, and he feels that in benefttine
himself he is confering favor upon
others. : Criterion.

A bill has been introduced in the
Legislature to create new Office in
each of the thirteen judicial circuits
of the state. at an annual salary
each Of $4,000. The title of the
proposed official is Circuit Attorney,
and it is provided that he ''must be
present at each term of court in the
circuit, and take charge of and pros
scute all criminal actions, applications
or motions in criminal proceedings in
which the state is a party, or have
some one present who is competent,
at his the circuit attorney's) expense.
As far as possible he shall, when re-
quirsd by the district attorney, assist
in the prosecution of all preliminary
examinations of all criminal casses
when the court or officer conducting
the examination has not final jurisdict-
ion. The bill stipulates that the
circuit attorney shall be thoroughly
learned in the law, that he shall hold
no other Office, that he be elected at
the spring election and enter upon
his duties the first of the following
January and hold his office for the
term of six years, the same as the circuit
judge. So. Point Journal.
The main trouble will be if this bill
becomes law, that it will always be
a hard matter to elect an attorney who
is well versed in the law, at the pres
ent status of our politics. The bill
should provide that he be appointed
by the Circuit Judges, or by the
Governor of the state.

BORDER LYNCHING.

MIssoULA, NJ. T. Feb. 5.-Less
than ten days ago, it will be remember
ed, BILLY the Kid was captured and
shot all to pieces and thrown into the
river in Weeksville; but last Sunday
was the bloodiest red-letter day ever
known at the terminus. Fer manv
weeks past spirit of law-lessness,
robbery and murder has reigned su-
preme at that point. Good citizens
were terrorized, and the rule of the
robbers was SO potent that it became
unsafe for any man with dollar in his
pocket to appear on the street, even in
broad daylight, while under cover of
the darkness carnival Of crime was
conducted by the thugs and cut-throats
who SO greatly outnumbered the good
citizens that any attempt to arrest and
punish the criminals was attended with
almost certain death to those who
might otherwise have been willing to
aid in the enforcement of the law
in visiting upon the heads of the guilty
the proper penalties for its infraction.
Dire alarm took possession of the
business community, and it finally
became evident that unless all good
men were willing to sacrifice their
property and to leave, some immediate
and determined effort was necessary
to terminate the existing reign of terror
The courts were paralyzed and their
edicts were defed. Urged to des-
peration by the extremities of the
situation, vigilance committee was
organized with great secrecy, and the
accessions were soon sufficiently nu-
merous to render its members bold
enough to announce their purpose of
suppressing the high-handed outrages
almost hourly coming to light. Once
no time was lost in carrying
out the object of the association On
last Sunday night four desperadoes.
known as Ohio Dan, Blondy, Ed.
Enright and an ether man was arrested.
The three first mentioned were hanged
without ceremony, and the fourth was
converted into lead depository. At
the "Y," another camp two miles
west of Weeksville, a similar scene
was enacted, three men, names I'M
known, being hanged on the same tree,
and all at the same time. When the
coach left Weeksville, so a lady pass
enger stated, the bodies of two men
were still dangling in the air from
limb of a tree, giving the early morn
ing scene a CHASTITY aspect. 1t was
also reported to her at the same time
that the three victims at the "Y"
were similarly suspended, having been
thus left by the avenging vigilants, so
that there should be no possibility of
a return to life On another authority,
it is learned that Monday witnessed
the hanging of three more men. whose
high crimes had become known and
who were considered too wicked to be
allowed to aflict the earth any longer
with their presence.

The floods in Ohio and other states
have amounter to more than the cas-.
