AN INDIGNANT PROTEST.
DELTA, Pa, August 10th, 1885,

DELTA, IA, August 10Th, 1856.
Mr.. EDITOR: 1 ask little space in your
paper to vent my Indignation against the writer
of communication signed Lark" ifalast week 8
Bel Air Times, in which he plainly ihtimates or
insinuates that the new paper in Delta, the week.
ly Times, had been gotten up in the liquor inter-
est and that persons by fair representations had
been trapped into subscribing stock In the COM
pany publishing it.
The communication also says that the paper
was started to counteract the strong temperance
influence of the Delta Herdid
Our paper, believe, has the good wishes of at
least three.fourths or even more of our commu-
nifty, and the editor of the Bel Air Times might
have seen from its advertising columns that in
admitting Lark's communication he was abetting
a mean attack upon nearly the whole town Of
Delta. Stock BoInEp

The referee declared the fight a draw
through the interference of the autheri-
ties. but decided that Ashton had made
the most clean hits. Desperate hugging
and smuggling characterized the entire
struggle, Conley continually clinching. In
the first round Conley rushed iuriously at
Ashton swinging his right; Ashton coun-
tered sharply with his left, and terrible
close fighting and an Interchange Of sledge

ing in a clinch, with honors easy.
In the second round the men toed the
scratch, Conley breathing hard, but he
went desperately to work, letting go his
right and his left successfully for Ashton's
head, and got in some terrible blows.
In the third and last round Ashton
cheerfully to the scratch. Conley
was less firm on his pins. 1t was a mere
continuation OF hard slugging and hug
ging, constantly broken by the referee.
During one Of these embraces Sheriff
Tibbetts jumped into the ring and waved
his cane, sending the men back into their
corners and closing the fight.

JACKSON, Mich, May l5.-Mrs. T.
Rodney Hood died about 5 o'clock this
afternoon. She gave birth to a child
May 4 and a few days later the nurse was
to give her a sponge bath with alcohol
and was directed by Mrs. Hood where to
find the alcohol. She found two bottles
labeled alcohol and used one of them.
Soon after the patient began to have
burning pains and a physician was called,
when it WAS discovered that the liquid
was a solution OF alcohol and corrosive
sublimate, prepared some time before as
rat poison. The application produced in
ternal inflammation and finally death, as
above stated.

Postmaster Speer, of Denver,
Acquitted.
A Singing Match Stopped by
the Sheriff.
Desperate Shooting Atfray---A
Fatal Mistake.


DENVER, May 1.-The trial of Post
master Speer, of this city, upon an in.
dictment of perjury in entering public
lands in Middle Park, was this evening
concluded after a session lasting four days.
The jury returned a verdict Of not guilty
in less than ten minutes after receiving
Judge Hallett's charge. The verdict was
received with a tumult of applause by the
crowd that filed the court room, the
United States marshal being unable to re-
store order for some time. The entire
city approve of the verdict and the most
intense feeling exists among all classes
against United States District Attorney
Hobson, it being universally believed the
prosecution was one solely of malice,
brought about to secure Speer's rei,c
ton by the senate, that another might be
appointed.
