LATEST NEWS SUMMARY.
Ds..,l. of the Harold, Oak. Tragedy.

Details of the Harold, OAK, Tragedy.
William N. Todd, who shot Cooper, his
abrother.inlaw at Harold, OAK, is a
smooth-faced young man. not more than
twenty-five or three years OF age, il fine
looking and has one OF the characteristics
that indicate q desperate citizen. The fam.
lilies originally lived in Illinois, where Coop
er was married to a sister OF Todd, but
on account OF Cooper's rowing habits
and dissipation she was Obliged to
leave him and return to her parents.
About q year ago the two families came
to Dakota and settled upon lands near
Harold, in this county, Cooper having in
the meantime promised to reform. He had
been here but a short time when he had
trouble with his brother-in-law, Hurley.
had Hurley arrested for larceny, but the
case was dismissed. This caused trouble
| n the Todd and Cooper families, and Coop
er's wife again left him. This time William
Todd, b p~risoner, and Cooper remained
friendly and last spring put In their crops
together. Recently Todd was digging po-
tatoes, when Cooper came along and or
sdered him off the premises Todd went
away but soon after the parties met
at the postofice in Harold. Todd spoke
and said, Cooper, we ought to settle that
matter about the potatoes We will di
them; you take the long rows and l will
cake 1ue nHotp ones, ana you Dehave your
self and live with your wife, Cooper then
said, II will settle the potato matter with
You, but will never live with that woman
Todd then said, "Ii you do not there
will be trouble" and put his hand
into his pocket. Cooper then said,
"Wen, you win not make trouble and

down and continued to pound him about

State of 1reland-American Tourists.

state OF lfeland-Amcflcan TOURISTS,
1t IS pleasing to notice that Ameri-
San public opinion has not been terri
lied by the rumor circulated by inter-
ested persons in reference to the In
settled state OF Ireland. Such I'M
founded reports, says The Belfast News
Letter. have done much to intimidate
tourists from visiting this country,
but the fact that these idle stories
have not completely accomplished
their objecthas just received a graphic
Illustration i'll Belfast. A very large
humber of American tourists have
recently V sitcd Ireland, taking in this
town III their tour. An instance show
ing how thoroughly Intellectual mali
clous reports have been is afforded by
the fact that IL party of thirteen
American ladies, unaccompanied by
what would perhaps be considered the
%reassuring escort of gentlemen, arriv-
ed after a tour through the country,
at the Queens hotel, Belfast. They
left Boston by the Cunard liner Cep-
halonia. Another large party of ladies
aud gentlemen tourists arrived at
/ Queenstown on the 9th inst. by the
Cunard steamer Aurania. They spent
the interval of twelve days in visit
ing Cork. the Lakes of Killarney,
Dublin, EnniSkillen. Londonderry,
Belfast, and other places of interest.
1t is an acknowledged fact that Ire
land presents features of attraction to
tourists such rs few countries possess,
but false public opinion has intimida-
ted many visitors who were only too
DESTROYS of becoming acquainted with
this island. That such influences are
dying a natural death is being demon
suratcd daily. In addition to the facts
above quoted, it may be mentioned
that on Saturday last the Cunard
steamer Etruria landed at Queenstown
nearly one hundred saloon passengers,
and the steamers OF other translantie
lines are furnishing their quota also.
The supposition that tourists might
not travel from Cape Clear to Main
Head without moleStatlon or dread
strikes anyone who knows Ireland as
a complete absurdity, and that false
rnmors have been dissipated in the
minds of American travellers is now
amply proven. The party of ladies
who have been staying ut the Queens
hotel left for Glasgow last night by
the Messrs. Burns steamer Gorilla.
The Dromedary, also, on Thursday
evening conveyed a large party of
Americans to the same destination.
These facts possess a special interest,
rs emphasizing n returning confidence
on the part of foreigners in Irish hos
pitallty and the general state of the
country.

An Old Time Humorist.
tLouisyil Argus. |

Whisky is the great leveler of the human race. Wealth, genius, station, beauty, all yield alike to the same in- fiuence. Robert H. Newell, whose de- lightful satires on war events, made his aoS de plume of Orpheus (. Kerr famous, was for many years a humoris, without a peer in this country. By some strange infatua alton he became one of the unfor. tunate Ada Isaacs Menkin's husbands. and gracefully retired, after the usual marital trial, permitting the eccentric actress to procure divorce for the hand. some compensation of S,o 900. His sub sequenf marriage was not happy one. Old age, dissipation and domestic trouble have brought the once brilliant writer whose contributions commanded the largest price, down to hawking his brain work about among unresponsive editors, glad to receive the smalles, pi.tance therefor, grudgingly granted.
 The above is the substance of long editorial in a recent issue Of the New York World. The following puts the matter in a different light.
 WORD FOR oRpHEus C. EEER.
 To A< Editor of A< He,H.
 Orpheus C. Kerr is, as a hsmorist, sup pose, hardened to the jocosities Of his con temporaries, bat fhe Averment made about him in your columns tbe other day are SO far from funny and SO remote from fact thss ask the favor of an explicit contradiction. He Is not old but, on the coRtrary, young, hale, merry, and the delight of charming circle of which his family is the centre and most devoted to him. Fortunately for him self he can write books for diversion and If the publishers lessen his royalties the fact need not impair bis digestion or limit his pleasures. In other words, Orpheus C. pleAses, what he pIeases and how he pieases, and, besides his family who adore him, he has many friends won 10 him by some Of the noblest characteristics that erdear man to his kind. Very truly yours.

Life draws to a close.

The weary man doth plainly see,
 With abject fear, The dim shores that no explorer knows Feels his time for eternity
 Is drawing near; And now, that his soul his God demands, And the cold grave awaits his clay, He enIeats and prays that his life $ sands May not be spent from day to day, While the wrath of God is held before him The coward cannot, so great his fear,
 His soul unto his Maker give; And though lis in vain to thus implore Him This anguished prayer pours in His ear:-
 "If hiy be dying, let me liveI"

because the fourteen colts on ex-
hibition were sired by the Captains
famous and handsome stallion Hamble-
tOnian.
The colts formed in line, and headed by
the proud father, were led up and down
the street to the admiration of the large
crowd that had been attracted. After
parade in which the younger colts gave
exhibitions Of their frolicsOmeness, t. NJ.

equine flesh.
The following colts were exhibited: !:
