A COURT TRADEGY.

St. Louis law courts are rapidly
achieving a national notoriety. Not
long since, two eminent members of
the bar INDUCED in a regular fight in
presence of the judge, and were fully
illustrated" we believe, IN the sensa-
tional police papers Of the east, as af-
fording sample of wild western ways.
This week she adds another startling
chapter in the shape of a murder and
suicide. On Monday morning, a per-
son named John Parker, about to stand
trial at the celebrated tFour Courts, y
was aIlowedto to have a few moments
conversation with his wife. 1t is sup
posed that the wife taking advantage
ofthe opportunity, handed her husband
a revolver, and that the tragedy that
followed was by mutual and prcconcer-
ted agreement. A: all events two pis-
tol shots startled the spectators, and
Parker and his wife lay fatally wound
ed. in the presence Of the spec
taters. Their case had been carried
to higher court.

To Correspondents.

Iti a strange thing that after twenty
-yes-ffty years of constant reiteratlon
on the part of the press that communi-
cations intended for publication must
have some responsible name accom-
panying them, that every week the
editor mail contains from one to half
dozen anonymous letters Often
these contain harmless news items, and
occasionally they are used, but often
cast aside, from the simple fact they
are literary orphans. Then again
under guise Of apparent pleasantly or
innocent narrative may be hidden some
libelous matter, which Unpublished would
raise a regular blizzard" Last week
we received most scurrrllous letter on
a former citizen of this county, post
marked in Texas, and unaccompained
by any signature. We always feel like
kicking such correspondents into
sense of their contemplate
littleness. This week we have a newsy
letter from Stahl City, which We would
be pleased to PRINT but. it also comes
without name or mark to indicate its
paternity. Some of its items we use,
IN our own responsibility in this issue,
md others omit, for the above reason,
md if the writer sends US more, which |
We hope he will, We beg Of him to:send
lis name also as a guarantee of good
aith.

VIEWS on TEMPERANCE.

The temperance question, supposed
to have been discussed, settled and fix
ed in the minds OF its advocates, be.
yond amendment, or re-statement,
seems to have suddenly SO changed in
its aspects that new IDEAL" is in order.
The logic of abstract theory and the
logic of actual trial do not always coin
eide. A recent number Of the Christ
ian Union contained a discussion of
the question by such men as Mr.. Whit
tier, Rev. Drs. H. c. Potter, W. H
TAYLOR. H. w. Thomas, Ex-Gov. Long.
Hon. w. B. Washburn, and others. In
commenting on the subject the ~. y.
Tribune saws "The most striking thing
about the replies is the entire unanim-
ity Of The eight writer's concerning the
merits Of prohibition as a remedy.
Every ore of them is opposed to it,"
The general conclusion seems to be that
merely restrictive legislation. without a
sufficient public sentiment to back it IS
worse than useless, and that it is folly
to think Of passing more stringent laws,
while those we already have are not ef-
ficiently or effectively enforced.

We suppose nothing more ridiculous
ever occurred than took place at, an
Oshkosh restaurant the other day A
servant girl got too near the stove and
her clothe- took fire, and the restaurant
man started for a blanket to throw
around the girl, just as his wife took a
pail of water to throw on her. The
man fell down, slipped on piece of
soap or something, and the girl
screamed just as the pail ofwater struck
her, and the woman both slipped down.
Some men in the restaurant, who were
eating breakfast, saw what they thought
to be family row, and noticing that
the girl had carving knife in her hand
when they all went down, the men
rushed out yelling for the police. The
police and the citizens rushed in and
it was half an hour before they could
explain how it was, and keep out of the
lock up. One of the men who was in
the restaurant was so scared, thinking
everybody in Oshkosh was on the war
path, numbering the settlers. that he
run into the country and never stop
ped until he got to Omro. He travels
for Chicago grocery house.-Peek's
