take her life. Mrs. Calhoun is quite good
looking. and appeared in court very taste
fully attired. John is an usher in a theater,
but did not wear his swallOw-tail and white
neektie this morning. A year ago John
and Emma were welded, but the honey
moon had barely been in the last quarter
before he commenced practical and studied
course of cruelty toward her. On this
ground, and because of his failing to
properly support her, she applied for a
divorce. They separated. She rented a
room on Dearborn avenue. Last night
when she came home she found her cratic
husband in her apartment. A quarrel
ensued. He drew pistol and discharged
1t at her, when she FLED from the room, and
fell fainting into the arms of Mrs. George,
fellow lodger. Officer Adams was at
tracted bv the shot, and arrested Calhoun.
He claims the shot was accidental.

troller Durham has disallowed an item of
81, 500 in the accounts of Norman j. Col

LIKE sOApsUDs OR DISH WATER
DIR. Hamilton Says Chicago Water
is Full of Impurities,
Epnoial f0 tho Qloba


Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-Surgeon Cen
eral Hamilton of the marine hospital serv-
ice received to-day bottle of water
drawn Dec. 10 from the hydrant which sup
plies the marine hospital in Lakeview, ILL
The water comes from the Lakeview water
works. Dr.. Hamilton Is informed that
this is sample of the only water there is
for drinking as well as for cooking pur-
poses in the hospital. 1t is not molly very
turbid, but it is of that grayish color which
does not characterize water which is merely
loaded with earthly matter, but is very sug-
gestive of soapsuds and dishwater. 1t is
not water that all ordinarily particular per-
son would even wash his feet in without
some reluctance. AS for drinking it, it
seems out Of the question, though it grows
clearer by precipitation of a part of the
ilth in it when allowed to stand. A chem
ical analysis of it is now being made, but a
preliminary examination of it showed it
contains free ammonia, and this proves con-
clusively the water is not fit to drink. Dr..
Hamilton understands the people of Lake
view are, for the most part,
DRINKING WAUKEsHA WATER.
He has telegraphed the hospital authori-
ties to get some filters Immediately, and as
soon as it can be done distilling apparatus
will be put in. A project for sinking an
artesian well to afford the hospital per-
manent supply of good water is under COIL
sideration. AS for Chicago, DR.. Hamilton
thinks, the only way open for the city is to
adopt the Berlin method of disposing of
the sewage. 1t cannot be poured out in
the lake without poisoning the water sup
ply, and it cannot be emptied into the Illinois
river without injury to residents along the
canal and river. Berlin, with population
of 100000, finds 14,60o acres sufficient
to absorb all the sewage of the city. The
city is divided into districts, each of which
has collecting reservoirs and pumping sta
tions. The sewage is run into irrigation
bitches and through them spread over the
ground. Theer is no odor or other incon-
venienee incident to this system and the
sewage system irrigation lands being used
for market gardening, the system earns
very nearly enough to pay expenses.

ton shows still greater atrocity. Besides
being shot, the father, mother and one child
had their heads cut open with an axe or
other sharp instrument. After being further
mutilated, the mangled remains of the
family were piled on the floor, the house
ritled and then set on fire to conceal the
evidence of the crime. The latest move in
the investigation was the sending of officers
to Faranac, where man is held answering
the description of Aleck Rowe, the hired
man, who was one of those suspected of
the murder.

same were received with manifest pleas

The long tables, laden with the most
tempting viands, were repeatedly filled,

uous entertainment. The presents were
numerous and exceedingly appropriate.

from his sons a beautiful silk dress all
made up and ready for use to Mrs. Foote !;
also $40 in gold coin. Gold-bowed spec
tacles, and a gold headed cane of great
elegance, album with gold clasp. etc. etc.
Mr.. and Mrs. Foote were married in
Cornwall, VT. in the house now owned
by Isaac l.. Eells, September 10. 1885,
| by the renowned DR.. Bushnell. Mrs.
Foote'S maiden name was Electa Landon.
Their wedding tour consisted of carriage
drive from Cornwall to Malone which
required three days. They came by way
of Willsborough Falls. crossing lake
Champlain at McNeils ferry. On arriv-
ing at Malone they drove up to the old
frame academy and called out the pre-
ceptress. Miss Orpha Landon, a cousin
of Mrs. Fcote, and exchanged greetings
with her. after which they drove to visit
other friends. In the following winter
MIR. Foote purchased the farm of David
Holt, situated little way southeast of
Malone village, which has been in Mr..
Foote's possession ever since. Although
they began life with but small possess
sions. yet by industry, perseverance and
good sense, they have accumulated much
property. Mr.. Foote hes been able to
give each of seven sons farm, and a
fine residence in Chateaugay to the
eighth. He is Il stockholder in every
bank in town. and has enough besides to
keep the wolf from the door. Few we'd
ded couples live to celebrate the 50th
marriage anniversary, and few of such
can look upon 80 years of happier and
more prosperous life than those lived by
