fell and broke leg, and was otherwise
badly bruised. According to the &C
count given al Bristol. he was in dan

good thing to teach in our schools how
to stop the bleeding of an artery, as the
thing is quite simple?
The snow is very tantalizing. There
is Charley at the window, who thinks
Well, it SHOWS now, and will fix III

THE BEST PAPER.

This is the season of the year when
people make arrangements for the next
twelve months reading. To all such we
can say that for weekly visitor there is
no better paper than the Milwaukee
Sentinel. It's news is taken from The
Daily Sentinel, which has constantly i'm
proved until it is, to-day, everywhere re-
garded as one of the foremost journals Of
the land. It receives thefull Associated
press reports, and also has private wire
running from its editorial rooms to New
York, Chicago, Washington and all the
prominent cities. Its political news is
the most reliable, and its general news
as complete as that Of any paper we re-
ceive.
1t makes speciality of Wisconsin in
terests and news, and lis editorials, in
the course Of fifty-two weeks, contain a
volume of valuable information. The
Agricultural and Household departments
are complete and entertaining while
its poetry, stories, literary and miscella-
neous matter are unsurpassed. We be-
lieve every one should take local paper
first but after that, if they wish to have
family paper that will give the most
general information, Of a strictly trust
worthy nature, there is none we can
recommend as better than the Mil
waukee Weekly Sentinel, and for Wiscon-
sin readers not one we consider as its
equal.
The Milwaukee Sentineps Household
Atlas premium is desirable and valu-
able article in any family. The price Of
the Weekly Sentinel is $1.00 per year.
The Weekly and the Atlas, $1.75. The
Daily Sentinel is $1,000 per year, IS cents
per month, or 20 cents per week. Sub
scriptions can be sent direct to the Ser
tiaeL Co., Milwaukee, Wis, or to the
local agent here.

MARINE.

/, The date for continuance of marine III
surance has expired the life-saying
stations have closed their doors and
closed. The vessels laid up at this port
are the schooners Lookout, D. S. Austin,
Narragansett, Gilbert Knapp, Contest,
Pride, Two Fannies and Morning Star,
nearly all Kenosha vessels. The Wauk-
egan excursion steamer Ida has also
gone into winter quarters at this port.
The lake has been unusually complacent
during the past season of navigation,
and the mishaps to shipping have been
less than the average of other years.
The sailing masters belonging to this
port are sober, resolute men, and qualifi-
ed seamen, and, whatever may be the
vicissitudes that confront them upon
the lake. the Kenosha shipping always
comes safely into port
1t may not be inappropriate in closing
the marine statistics for the season to
borrow words to illustrate the ever
varying conditions that those who ride
upon the lake realize at frequent inter-
vals
In the gray of the cleaning Ger lowland and
highland
The storm wind is sounding its bugles afar,
The pillows roll back on the desolate island;
In vain shall the mariner seek for a star.
Q, keeper, look well to thy beacon forth-gIeaming
y, fisher, steer boldly, with eye to the light
Lest slumber unbroken by waking or dreaming
Thy portion shall be in the turbulent night.
All, wild is the winter on lowland and highland.
And black breaks the the storm battered
coast;
And sound the long bugles on peak and on island,
And gathers tho tempest with haste and with host
In the spring time when robbins come |
and vessels fit out for the adventurous
work of the season, the marine reporter
will return his borrowed poetry, and at
the same time placate the lake by illus
tratlons of its unvarying serenity.

His Real Opinion Of the Letters.

Now and then as one studies the
character Of the false and cowardly
Blaine, contempt for him gives place to
pity for his apologists. TO have on ones
hands candidate SO complex and null
tifarious in his lying and deceit, not
only taxes the inventive powers of those
who are compelled to fashion new de-
tense for him each day, but it must be
sorely trying to the patience as well.
Let us admit that some of the young
and generous hearted among the toilers
at the crank felt thrill of admiration
for Mr.. Blaine when he expressed the
wish that every Republican voter In the
land be supplied with copies of the Fish
er correspondence; and that when he fur
ther declared that there was nothing in
the letters inconsistent with the most
scrupulous integrity and honor, they sat
down with something like enthusiasm to
write of those letters as his ''vindica
tion.n Incautious youthsl The inspir-
ing but ungrateful object Of their essays
at defense and Justification has again
cut the ground from under their feet.
He omitted to warn his organs that four
years ago he offered $40, 900 for these
precious letters of Wind cation. The evil
dence of that offer is supplied in the fol
lowing letter from Warren Fisher to
Mr.. Gustav Kobbe, Of this city;
WINDSOR, Vt, July 12, 1884
In April or May Of 1880; Blaine sent word
to have me meet him at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel He then authorized me to get the let
tiers from Mu ligan, pay $40, 900 if could not
get them for less, AMI then wanted DIR. M.
and myself to go to Europe and remain until
after election at his expense. Mr.. Mulligan
declined the offer. He said Blaine had stolen
his letters in Washington. he never should
have what he held at any p-ice.
WARREN FISHER.
It will require more ingenuity than
has yet been displayed in Mr.. Blaine's
behalf to satisfactorily explain why he
should have been willing to give this
large sum OF money for the possession of
letters "vindicating' him from every
charge made against him, and containing
nothing inconsistent with the most
scrupulous integrity and honor. To
minds which have not yet accepted the
Blaine standard Of integrity and homer
this offer shows plainly that IN 1880 he
regarded the letters as very damaging to
him.-Neo York Times.
