Madison Matters.
From Our Regular Correspondent

iV" Jul itcSuidf OotEtspOHutUt.
Last week the old settlers association
held its annual meeting at the capitol,
and large number of the old pioneers
of the state were present; for two days
they held interesting meetings IN the
senate chamber.
All of Madison's citizens who at
tended the reunion at Dodgeville, re-
turned. highly gratiiied with the hospi-
tally that little city afforded.
A game OF baseball was INDUCED in,
on Saturday last, between the U. w.
nine and the Milwaukee professional
nine. The game was played for the
purpose of giving Madison an opportu-
nifty to see a lively contest and not with
the hopes that the U. w. niue could
successfully cope with professional
club. They showed excellent training
on both sides and the game ended in
favor of Milwaukee, II to 0.
The senior class at the University are
preparing for their last exercises, which
take place on Wednesday of this week.
About thirty applicants have presented
themselves for their preparatory exami-
nations for next years work, aud the
prospect for next years freshman
class Is very good.

60 musicians gave Madison a rare mu-
sioial entertainment ut Turner hall last

The Medical Use of Eggs.

For burns and scalds there is nothing
more soothing than the white of an
egg, which may be poured over the
wound. 1t is softer as varnish for
burn than collodion, and. being always
on hand, can be applied Immediately.
1t is also more cooling than the sweet
oil and cotton" which was formerly
supposed to be the surest application
to ailay the smarting pain. 1t is the
contact with the air that gives the cx-
treme discomfort experienced from or
binary accidents of this kind; and every
thing which excludes air and prevents
inflammation is the best thing 10 be app
piled. The egg is also considered one
of the very best remedies for dysentery.
Beaten up lightly, with or without SUI
gar, and swallowed at a gulp, it tends
BY its emollient qualities to lessen the
inflammation of the stomach and in
testines, and by forming transient
coating for these organs enables nature
to assume her healthful sway over the
diseased body. Two or, at the most,
three eggs per day would be all that
would be required in ordinary eases;
and since the egg is not merely a med
icine, but food as well, the lighter the
diet otherwise, and the quieter the pa
tent is kept, the more certain and rapid
is his recovery.

The styles in wa!king-cancs are
constantly changing said a promi-
nent dealer in in ported canes on
Broadway to reporter for the Mail
and Express. 1.-The most popular and
stylish cane is now made of hazel
wood, with a buckhorn handle shaped
like shepherds crook. The more ex-
pcnsive have silver bands just below
the handle. II the owner desires he
can have his monogram cut on the
band, and if he is very lah-de-dah he
will do it. They are the latest London
rage in canes and the dudes here are
not slow in adopting them. The plain
cane without tue silver band sells at g
and the highest at 81. But the hazel
wood and the cute way the buckhorn
handle is put on to make them odd,
from the first insured their popularity"
'.What style of cane ranks next in
popularity
Those with small silver caps. For
a long time the. silver crooked handle
cane was in the ascendency. But the
street vendors with cheap limitations in
nickel handles eau 2d their popularity to
wanc. There is nothing that breaks into
the trade in stylish canes rs disastrously
as cheap limitations. Generally, man
who carries Il cane has certain
amount of vanity and pride, and to see
snide people trying TO swell it on
cheap imitation cane disgusts him with
even the genuine. =
"Are any new kinds of canes being
introduced?n
Eyes. The crystallitc. so-called be-
cause the handle is crystallization of
certain wood found only in South
America. They are mounted in tigerite.
The handles arc frequently designs of
the heads of animals. They are very
scarce, and cannot be purchased for
less than S12 or Sl5. They are some
what too expensive ever to be univer-
sally popular. Only the very rich can
afford them.
What of the gold and ivory-headod
canes?n
They will never 90 out of style.
The gold-headcd canes are worn on
holiday occasions. The ivory-headed
are still monopoized by old men, and
probably will be for many years to
come. ~. J. Mail

The Glorious Fourth.

A week from next Saturday is the
Tooth anniversary of the declaration of
Independence day that will no doubt
be celebrated as long as the American
republic lasts. Owing to the cosmo-
politan character of the population of
the country at the present time, the sig
niiicance ofthe event, though losing none
Of its patriotic associations, has in
measure changed in conformity with
the change in the characteristics of the
people; SO that, instead of being cele-
DRAFTED as the relative day of the triumph
of the colonist arms over the reigning
prince of Great Britain, it has far
broader, deeper and more universal
characterization. 1t is now regarded
and observed more as day in which to
celebrate the success of the experiment
of a Republican form of government
a government by the people-an expert
ment never before tried on earth wholly
untrammeled and uninfluenced by sur
rounding countries--and also as sort of
day of jubilee on the part of our nat
uralized citizens for their emancipation
from monarchical forms of government.
As such, it becomes the common prop
erty OF all and can be as freely and
periodically observed by the foreigner
just landed, who understands aud re-
veres our free institutions, as by him
who traces his lineage back to the pill
grims who landed on Plymouth rock.
The United States has fewer HOLIDAYS
than any other country on earth-too
few in fact-and this day. so broad in
its application and so useful to the ma
ton in instilling into the minds of the
young the principle of patriotism and
love of country which of itself consti-
Lutes the strength and safety of a gov
far more than enormous
armies and costly navies-
cannot be too generally observed Six
lays of each week we devote to our
selves and our homes, every seventh to
The service of God, and surely one day
N the year is not too much to bestow
lpon "the best government the sun ever
'hone upon" given us through the
of George Washington,
who refused crown and gave a virgin
country to a free people, untainted by
hat relic of barbarism, hereditary
'oyalty.

Glen Haven.

The family of Mr.. Richard Kidd
were very much surprised to find in
their barn one Of Bloomington's citizens,
he having absconded during the night
and taken up the usual tramp quarters,
the barn. As the tramp showed signs
of hunger he was kindly taken to the
house and generously supplied with the
substantials of life, as all tramps in our
country generally are. On examination
Of the fellow it was discovered that his
name is Tom, the pet coon that Freddie
Kidd sold to DIR. Sala of Bloomington,
eight months ago Since that time he
has been faithful student up to the
time of leaving for his old home. How
he found his way back after so long
lapse of time is a mystery. He came
down town this morning to see his old
friends, apparently happy.
The river is on the rise again. Steam
boatmen say we are to have three

Of our hay crop on the islands, which

Mr.. Henry Weaks and James Murray

new home.
The boats are pretty well supplied
with passengers from the South hunt
ing the cool and cxhilarating climate Of
our northern lakes. We have floating
picture gallery here ready and willing
to show up the beauty of the Glen.
We have no celebration this year on
the Fourth? Having celebrated last
year we think of taking a ride across
the river to Gutenberg, Ia, where they
expect to make it pleasant for all A
st. Louis gentleman and three ladies'
came off the boat last evening having
their horse and carriage with them.
They go through to Madison with their
own conveyance to sojourn during the

The Catfish and Her Kittens.


A Mr. Hubbard, a bay fisherman,
says that late in the spring you will
often SEQ school of about fifty small
catfish. not more than quarter of an
inch in length, very near the shore,
and II you look ten or twelve feet fur
Their out you will see the mother cat.
If noise is made she win make sign
that the little cats understand as
we'll as chickens do the cluck of an old
hen when hawk is in the neighbor-
hood, and run into the open mouth of
the old catfish, who viii then turn and
swim off in safety with her young. Mr..
Thomas Davis, of this city, some time
ago told us that he had noticed this
care of mother catfish for her young.
He said that he has often seen the
young fish swimming about in shallow
water, while the old fish would not be
far off. II danger threatened tho old
"catty'' would rush in among her
young, and by vigorous motion of
fins stir up the mud until the water be-
came discolored and the young fish
could no longer be seen. When the
water would become clear again
neither old nor young fish would be
visible. Hacre de Grace Republican.

Point was designated as the place and

Point was designated as the place and
the fixing of the time was left to the
executive committee.
The sentiment of the veterans was
against SO much display, necessitating
the expenditure of so much money on
the part of the citizens where the re-
union is held, and this was discussed at
some length. All they ask is the priv
ilege of getting together at some con-
venient place to renew old friendships,
but they finally concluded they could
stand all the slde-show the citizens felt
disposed to furnish.
Next came the election of officers for
the ensuing year, as follows:
President C. II. Baxter vicePresident, j. G
Knight Commander-in-Chief, G. w. stevenson
Adjatant General, Thos Priestley; Assistant
Adjatant General John Meehan; Quarter
Master, George Ycik; Assistant Quarter Master,
IL Buchner; Drum Major. C. II. wannemaker.
A resolution Of thanks to the citizens
of Dodgeville for their muniticent and
magnificent reception was unanimously
carried, as was also resolution of con-
dolence with Gen. Grant, which was
ordered engrossed and copy to be
forwarded TO the General.
After the business meeting, the mill
tia companies gave further exhibition
of their efficiency in drill, and their evo-
lutions, skirmish firing, firing by pla-
toons, &C., called forth frequent CON-
mendations.
But the time had come for the final
hand clasp and heartfelt goodbye, as
the old veterans started for their homes,
conscious that many, ali, how many!
will be mustered out before we convene
again, to meet no more until the Great
Reunioni Pardon them if the silent
tear trickles unbidden down their
cheeks, for these partings bring the past
more wildly before them; and back
through the vista of the intervening
years they see again the deadly charge,
their comrades fall around them to rise
no more, while they mingle their own
blood with that of the fallen, and are
borne from the field, perchance with an
empty sleeve where the vigorous arm
was wont to be. or the strong limb left
behind to be supplanted by the crutch.
Aye, these friendships are enduring
they are cemented with blood, O, yes;
they are mirthful when together They
sing their old songs with unwonted
glee, and tell their anecdotes with I'M
usual zest, perhaps sitting groan of
pain while it is done. Yes, and they are
still boys, though their heads are whit
ened by the frosts of many winters and
their brows furrowed by many years.
Their forms and faces may soon be for
gotten, but their achievements will live
forever. They have washed the pollu-
ton from the old flag, and the scintilla-
tons of its stars will be the beacon to
light the world to liberty.

A Question From the Audience.

A member of the Australian Parlia-
ment, now travelling in California, re-
lates the following incident: The Aus
tralian system of education is founded
on the American model, and they not
only have strictly secular public schools
but they also have a law enforcing at
tendance. There, as here. the Irish
element is bitterly opposed to the god
less schools, and the English Austral-
ians are as jealous defenders of them.
On one occasion an Irish candidate had
made flaming speech ut a political
meeting attended by an unusually large
number of Irish voters and presided
over by an Irish chairman. On the
conclusion of the speech the Chairman
rose, in accordance with custom, and
said: Would ony gintlemon loike to
ashk the shpaker ony questionsP A
green young Englishman rose and ask
ed, in response to the invitations:
''What are the candidates views con-
corning public educationP' The last
word was hardly out of his mouth when
he was struck on the head with a heavy
stick and laid out senseless on the
floor. Not the least commotion follow
ed. and the Chairman quickly rose and
blandly inquired: "Nould ony other
gintlemon loike to ashk ony other ques-
tons" -San francisco Arg0RGut.

A Natural Mistake.

A correspondent sends to The Boston
Journal the following account of a
mistake, made BY little girl in his
vicinity: She always joins the family in
reading the scriptures during the faini-
" deyotions, taking her verse in turn.
She easily reads the shorter words, but
needs some help about the longer, but
is always eager to pronounce all the
words herself, and sometimes gnesses.
Recently it came her turn to read the
verse, "No man can serve two masters,
for either he viii have 10 hate the one
and love the other. or else he will hold
to the one and de pise the other. Yc
cannot serve God and Mammon She
made slight variation at the end, and
finished tie verse. s.Yc can not serve
God and women.
