Il justice, the Prohibition candidate could
scarcely have made much of an impression at
Chicago He is reported to have told his audi
snce that there were none of the old issues be-
fore the people now. This was certainly an in
temperate speech for an advocate of temper
ance. One of the greatest of the old issues be-
fore the people was Protection rs. Free Trade.
Is Mr.. st. john of the opinion that that issue
is not still before the peopleH
Not content with numbering John L. Sullivan

maintain supremacy in the noble field of dog
fighting. Her fayOrte dog Smut" has just
left "Potc," valiant New York dog, dead in

hours. If the human beings who get up and
patrouzc such exhibitions could only be left
dead in the pit instead of the wretched brutcs
whose worse instincts they are at pains to in
flame the result would be moro agreeable to
The general public.
The Police Commissioners have come 90 Che
sensible conclusion that they will hereafter per

Police Board and the Superintendent have al
ways taken reasonable Wow in regard 10 max.
ing public police news when such publication
does not defeat the ends Of Justice or cmbar-

toward foolish excess of cOnceament, toward
making mysteries where no secrecy h really

that sort Of abuse.

The Beloit correspondent of the Mil
waukee Sentinel has been looking up the
record of Reuben E. Farrar, formerly
editor of the Democrat, and brings to
light the following:
Farrar worked for John Foster & Co,
the shoe manufacturers, from about the
1st of July last till about the middle of
January He was always considered
cranky by his fellow workmen, who
enjoyed much sport at his expense, as he
was very sensitive and jealous, and
always imagining that some one was at
tempting his ruin in one way or another.
About the frs of the year he showed
unmistakable signs OF insanity. He
declared everybody his enemy, except
Mr. Foster, his employer, to whom he
confded his fancied troubles, and re-
peatedly declared Mr.. Foster his only
friend Out of sympathy for him hr.
Foster at times took him to his own
house, as Farrar insisted that his land
lady was trying to poison his food.
About Jan. Is Mr.. Foster induced Far
rar to go before physicians at GAINESVILLE
IOI 0AdIuIudIIOu, duu lOIu uluI LudI TIC
thought his brain was effected Farrar
readily consented TO do so, and said
himself that there was something wrong
with his head"
Mr.. Foster accompanied him to James
vile, and two prominent physicians
pronounced him insane. When inform
ed that he must go to the Mendoza asy-
lum, he was delighted, and on his journey
there was in good spirits. Beloit people
heard nothing more of Farrar until the
articles in the Sentinel came to notice,
and it is not known how he escaped from
the asylum. Upon inquiring into the
case it was found that Mr.. Foster receiv-
ed on March z, a letter from Farrar
dated at Dixon, ILL.,, March 2, 1884, the
style of which shows plainly that the
writer was in a more shattered condition
mentally when he wrote, than when sent
| to Mendoza. Farrar accused Mr.. Foster
with attempting to kill him, and having
caused his incarceration in On insane
asylum, for the purpose of robbing him
of his money. liz one place he said 'you
have taken ten years of my life from me
but you cannot kill me-" and in another
place he offers to divide his property Git
is not known that he has dimes worth J
with Mr.. Foster if the latter will cease to
pursue him. He also refers to his En-
glish letter.
Mr.. Foster has not heard from the
lunatic since he received the letter.
While in Beloit, Farrar's habits were
good and he was liked.

welfare of Watertown and always bore
the respect and esteem of large circle of
friends here. Perhaps no one connected
with the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railway could have died MOI deeply and

He appears to have made warm friends
among the employees Of the road at every
point on the line. Mr.. Atkins leaves a
a wife and six children, one daughter,
the Oldest, aged %. and five sons, whose
ages range from 81 to IL years. Mr..
Atkins was born at Gardiner, Maine,

time he had been employed as clerk at
his native place.

ments of mourning, bearing the remains

DtAAIND - SALERATUSC Use no other.


The opportunities for ladies to find
employment that is both suitable and
remunerative are limited; their pay is
usually poor as compared with the salar-
les paid to men in same line of occupa
ton. But there are some very noted
exceptions; journalism, the drama,
music and platform offer equal advantages
TO men and women, and there is one
occupation in which women are some
times more successful than men, and
that is in the management ofsagencies.
In this line The Queen City Suspender
Company, of Cincinnati, o., are offering
inducements to ladies that we think
ought to attract attention. They are
now manufacturing and introducing their
new Stocking Supporter for ladies and
children, and their unequaled Skirt
SUBSCRIBERS for ladies. None should be
without them; our leading physicians
recommend them, and are loud IN their
praise. These goods are manufactured
bv ladies who have made the wants of
ladies and children study, and they ask
us to refer them to some reliable and en-
ergetic lady to introduce them in this
county, and we certainly think that an
earnest solicitation in every household
would meet with a ready response, and
that determined woman could make a
handsome salary, and haYe an exclusive
agency. We advise some lady who is
in need of employment to send to the
company her name and address, and
mention this paper. Address QUEEN

Easter Dag at the Churches.


Easter Sunday was cloudy and some
what chilly but yet on the whole not
unpleasant, many tokens of spring time
being visible in natures surroundings.
A large attendance was noted at all the
churches in observance of the Easter
Festival. The altar at st. Paul's church
was tastefully, although not heavily
decorated with flowers, beautiful floral
cross for center piece being conspicuous.
The service was of the usual joyous and
hearty character, the choral portion being
finely rendered by the boy choir, Mrs. H.
FL. Gallup presiding at the organ with her
customary taste and skill. Rev, d. A.
Sanford preached finely appropriate
discourse for the day. The offering was
made in behalf of the Rectory fund and
amounted to $4,000. In the afternoon
a service was held for the Sunday school
scholars, and the children performed
their task of singing their Easter hymns
and carols with great pleasure and hap
piness. A pleasant feature of this SER
vice was an interesting address delivered
by Hon. j. B. Bennett taking the great
truth of the Resurrection as the basis of
his remarks The childrens offering in
aid of the Lumbermen's Hospital, Chip
pewa Falls, Wis.,, amounted to nearly
$13.
A special Easter service for the chill
dren of the Sunday school was held in
the Congregational church in the even
ing. The songs and speakings all had
direct reference to Christ's "rising from
the dead and becoming the first fruits of
them that slept"
Haydn's celebrated Second Mass was
creditably performed at St. Bernard's
Church in the morning. Prof. G. S.
Hawley, Albert Smith, J. w. Williams,
Miss Mary Finn, Miss Ella Blair and Miss
Anna Malloy were the leading voices with
Miss Katie Ma!loy as organist. In the
evening the special features ofthe service
were Mozart's Magnificent rendered by the
choir and Lugguiluzzi's Ave Marie solo
by Prof. Hawley.
At the Lutheran churches large con-
gregatious were assembled to celebrate
the anniversary of risen Savior and the
services were impressively rendered.

Dtspostng of a Hsred!Team.

Last Thursday morning a young man,
aged about 10 years, proving to be L. T
Davis, of Columbus, appeared at the
livery barn of 2. Kennedy and hired a
carriage and team. He drove to Jeffer-
son and during the afternoon proceeded
to trade away the team to the Shannon
Brothers, realizing in the dicker only $50
ia money. Sheriff Cunningham being
informed of the suspicious looking trans
action arrested Davis before he had time
to get out of Jefferson. The prisoner
was taken before Justice Stacy Friday
afternoon and committed for an exam
ination to be held tomorrow on charge
of DEMONSTRATING. Davis is respectfully
connected and the affair is a most unfort-
innate one for his family and friends.
There is some ground, it is stated, to sup
pose that the offender is not in his right
mind.
