WHO'S TO Blame &?
Another Young Soul Takes 4
A Leap Into the Great
Unknown.

We + called upon to narrate the
sudden decease Of another young girl
tired of life and Its 6ckleness, or
perhaps the Inconsistency or perfdy of
a lover. The facts are substantially as
follows, gathered from reliable sources:
Last July there appeared at the Mer-
chants restaurant on Broadway, q
young girl, about nineteen years old,
and who gave her name as Addie Lei.

p~rietor, for work, which he gave her.
She labored here as q dining room
girl up to the time of her death.
While engaged In the restaurant she
formed the acquaintance of one Steb
bus or Slemmer, who seemed 10 have
acted the part of suitor. Her conduct
was that of q lady, and the
proprietor and attaches Of the
restaurant speak of her in compli.
mentary terms. They say she seemed
happy and contented, and only when
speaking of home, or lover, did any
thing like q shadow of sadness over
spread her countenance. She on
several occasions stated to the family
of Mr.. Jacob jacobson, attaches Of
the restaurant, that she left home
with a young man, and that on return
Ing to the psternal roof after q short
absence was treated 80 coldly that she
concluded to leave home forever. She
stated that her people lived near
Corning, Iowa, and were wealthy.
She further stated upon one occasion
that ''her fellow" in this place con-
tinued making her pledges which he
has often broken. Nothing was thought
of this conversation until this morn

Bright Of Windsor Locks Conn, writes o.
plain modest narrative, which, from It's
very simplicity, has the true ring Of fine
gold. He says
"My father Is using Hunts Remedy and
seems to be improving, in fact, he is very
much better than he has been for q long
time. He had been tapped three times.
The first time they got from him sixteen
quarts Of water, the second time thirteen
quarts, and fully as much more the third
time. and he would constantly fill up again
every time after he had been tapped, until
he commenced using Hunts Remedy,
which acted like magic In his case, as he

The Green Bay Advocate (Dem. }
Postmaster General Howe's record, so
far, has been a very brilliant one. We
do not remember any other gentleman
who has been at the head Of that de-
partment who accomplished so much
in so short time. Going int that
department entirely unfamiliar with
the coutine of the business and the
needs and necessities of the service,
he has steadily brought to bear his
sound sense and good judgment and
has made record of which he and his
friends may well be proud. Improve
ments of the postal service are what
he is constantly working for, and those
croakers who prophesied his failure
may take back seat. The postal
note. which will soon be issued is
among the latest changes which will
DO for the benefit Of the public, It is
to take the place of meney orders for
sums of SIS and less, is to be about as
large as greenback, and made paya-
Bile to bearer Altera ton of the
amount is prevented by a system of
punching, in the style of long distance
railroad tickets. The order will be
issued for the fee of three cents. Sim
liar notes are used in England, and
last year no less than 1852, 900 Of
them, amounting to ever $4,000, 900
were issued. They were in eireula-
ton. on the average, only six days,
showing that there is little danger of
the notes being used as currency.

gress.
United States District Attorney G..
W. Hazelton returned from Ashland
at an early hour this morning, bringing
news that the contest of Isaac Stephen
sons seat IN the next congress from
the Ninth Wisconsin District, by
Judge Park, his defeated democratic
rival was off. The matter was
brought before Judge Ellis, of Ash
land County, on wednesday, and Mr..
Hazelton was there in the interest of
Mr.. Stephenson. Judge Park soon
after the hearing notified Stephensen's
representative that he would give up
the contest. He is in poor health and
it's the advice of his physician that
he needs rest and quiet, and relief
from undue excitement-henee his fail
ure to push the investigation before
congress. 1t is not improbable that
Park had concluded that there was no
substantial ground for contest.
When the matter came up on We'd
nesday large number of Parks wit
nesses were examined but they did not
disclose anything of the least con-
sequence or materiality. The prin-
cipal witness, SIr. Mon tgomery, tes-
titled that he was supporter of Judge
Park and would like to see him have
the seat if he could have it fairly: that
the board of inspectors at Ashland
consisted of one republican and two
democrats and no votes had been adj
mitted without careful investigation;
that they had carried out the law to
the letter, and that he had advised
son of Park that he knew of nothing
of any service to his father. This
virtually puts an end to the trouble
between the gentlemen.-W Wisconsin

Alex. FL. Stephens, the Georgia
Statesman, died at his home in Allan
ia, March 4th. at $3.50 O'Clock, at the
age of II years. Mr.. Stevens was
born in Taliaferro County, Georgia,
Feb. IL. 1912. He graduated at
Franklin College, Athens, Ca, in
1882, and was admitted to the bar in
1884 He rapidly obtained a large
and lucrative practice. He was elect
ed to the Legislature of Georgia in
1886, and was reelected for five sue
cessive terms. In 1912 he was elected
to the State Senate. In 1913 he was
elected as a Wing to Congress, and
held his seat until 1859. In February
1S47 he submitted a series of resolu-
tions in relation to the Mexican war,
which afterward formed the platform
OF the Wing party. He opposed the
Clayton compromise in 184S, and took
leading part in the compromises of
1850. The passage of the Kansas and
Nebraska act in 1854 in the House of
Representatives was strongly supported
by him as chairman Of the Committee
on Territories. After the breaking up
of the Wing party he acted with the
Democrats. At the close of the Thir-
ty-ffth Congress Mr, Stephens de-
elined to be again a candidate, and on
July 2, 1850, he made speech at
Augusta, Ga, announcing his retire
ment from public life.
During the presidential canvas of
1860 he sustained Douglas and de-
aounced those who advocated disSo,
lutien of the Union in case of Mr.,
Lincoln's election; and in November.
1860, he made a speech before the
Legislature of Georgia against seces-
sion, on which subject he had an inter-
esting correspondence with Mr.. Lincoln
in December. In the month of Feb
ruary 1866, he was elected to the
United States Senate but as the State
