On Wednesday morning a small boy named
William Kerrigan, whom his mother claims
to be under ten years Of age, was detected
trying to rifle one of the postoffice boxes of
its contents. When taken before Esquire
Larkin the fact of his age became known and
the little fellow was discharged, the statutes
providing no penalty for misdemeanors com.
mitted by any one under ten years. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that the real culprits in this
affair are boys considerably older, who induced
Kerrigan to do the deed, and if such should
bethe case the United States courts may take
hand in the affair. Access to the box was
obtained through box renter carelessly leav-
ing his bunch Of keys in the lock on the pre-
vious evening, and when handed into the
postmaster by young fellow the box key
was not among the number
The FREE TRADER has on a previous occa-
sion called attention to the habitual careless
ness of many individuals in leaving their keys
at the postotfice. The occurrence is common;
almost daily some one forgets his key and
leaves it sticking in the lock.

/. II. Eredenhlrph Dead.

Isaac ii. Fredenburgh, of this city, died at
his home in East Ottawa, on yesterday morn
ing. The cause of his death was paralysis,
following a severe attack of dyscntery CON
tracted while in the army, which had during
the last few months so reduced him as to fair
ly break down his system. He was in the Goth
year of his age.

June 14th). With the exception of a few
years residence as hotel.keeper in Utica, and
his period Of service in the army, in Capt,
Ford's company during the rebellion, Ottawa
had been his home for the 50 years. He was
married in 1885. He was a tailor by trade,
but in the early days, before the days Of
bridges, he ran ferry over the Illinois river.
He was deputy under Sheriff Blake, He
leaves his wife, three daughters, Mrs. Morse,
Mrs. Beaubien and Mrs. Moss, and two sons,
Justus and Charles. Two sons, Henry and
Plat, are dead.

COheen.


Mr.. H. A. Coffeen, of Danville, Illinois, on
last Thursday evening addressed an audience
of about 200 people in Washington Square,
under the auspices of the Knights of Labor.
Mr.. Coffeen is a very pleasant speaker, and
held his audience through speech of two
hours in length.
His address was so long and touched briefly
so many points that ii would be impossible to
give even sketch Of it in anything like reas.
enable space. 1t was a plea for the rights of
the working classes as opposed to monopolies.
The creators Of wealth, he insists, do not en-
joy it. The working men create it, they dis
tribute it, but in the distribution there is a
hitch somewhere, so that ii is diverted-for
augmentation the hands of the creators
and distributors into the hands Of non pro-
ducers. 1t is the aim of the Knights of Labor
to correct this, by combining the corporations
of the Countrywide railroads, the great
mines, the great factories, banks, &c. TO
their proper functions, as servants of the
people and not their masters. n

The Circuit Court.

The court house has been about deserted
this week. Instead of being busy hive, with
halls full of people hurrying to court rooms
or in and out of public offices, an almost Sc.
pulchral silence has been the rule since Satur.
day. The routine business Of the offices has
gone on as usual, but lawyers aud clients,
judges and officers of court spent the week in
the midst of the Chicago hurrah. This morn
ing, however, the rage will end, and again
court will open with Judge Stipp on the
bench to continue until hot weather or the
political needs of the country again outrank
the distribution of Justice.

Probably the most surprised man in Ottawa
this week was Frank A. Kendall. 1t came
about something like this: Not long ago the
subject of bananas was being discussed and
F. A. incidentally remarked that he and his
household were passionately fond of this lus-
cious fruit of the tropics. There was present
at the time Chicago friend. Nothing more
was thought of it untikthe other day, when a
case Of goods was received at his store that
didn't look like hardware. He opened them,
and there before his astonished vision and
watering mouth lay large bunch of bananas

Yesterdays He,old, German, gives the fol-
lowing very complimentary notice of mayor
Allen and his veto of the fire ordinance. With
out doubt the mayor acted conscientiously,
and without any personal motive in the af-

The city council, without vote in opposi-
ton, defeated Mayor Aliens veto of the rcso-
luton to permit the erection of finder boxes
within the fire limits of the city. Neycrthe.
less Mayor Allen was clearly in the right
The council should be ashamed of itself for
such treatment of the Mayor, who had none
other than the best interests of the city at
heart. Mayor Allen is the best mayor Otta-
wa ever had; and in spite of the wronghead-
edness of his council-who otherwise seem
proper enough men-should not allow him
self to be turned aside He can safely rely
on the intelligent approval of his official con-
duct by all well minded citizens,

as the tournament would bring from all parts
