Milwaukee Rioters Let or With Lecture.

The three rioters, Carl Mussfeldt, John
Runge and August Gutz. who were found
guilty by O. jury at Milwaukee, were brought
into court to be sentenced. Mussfeldt, who
was the only one OF the three who could
understand English, was ordered by the
Judge to stand up. Being questioned
he stated that he had four children and
IVES poor man. He was attired in a
coarse blouse and overhalls, and when the
Judge asked him. Have you any thing to
say why sentence should not be passed up.
on your" the prisoner broke down and
wept. Judge Sloan said:
These men are all strangers to me. Ihave
tried to find out something about them
over Sunday. In view of all the circum-
stances OF the case have been inclined to
think thatit will not be best to inflict very
severe sentence on the three defendants.
No doubt the finding of the jury was right,
but the court is, and has been all along,
inclined to be lenient in all cases OF mere
misdemeanor.
Addressing himself to the prisoner, who
was still sobbing and drying his tears with
a red handkerchief, Judge Sloan said:
Mr.. Mussfeldt, want you to understand
that il sentence is suspended aud you go
out OF this court room free man, you
must behave yourself Ii you act like a
good citizen and support your family, sen.
tence will never be inflicted upon you. If,
on the contrary. you should take to riot
ing again, as you did last May. heavy SEN
tence will be visited upon you. Upon these
terms suspend sentence.
Applause broke from the audience in the
back OF the room wi ich the Judge promptly
suppressed. The terms Of the judges rul.
ing were explained to the other prisoners,
who had been unmoved listeners to the
judges remarks, and they took their de-
parture.

A Sensational Divorce Case In Chicago.

Mrs. Abbie Farwell. Ferry, daughter OF
John V. Farwell OF Chicago, has filed a
bill OF separation in the superior court
against her husband, William H. Ferry.
The bill alleges that the parties were mar
ried on Oct. IL, 1876, and lived
together as man and wife until some
time in 1885. They had five chill
dren, named respectively, John Far
we'll, aged ten; Frank, eight; Willie, six;
Montague, five, and Horace Ferry, three.
The complaint charges: Almost immedi-
ately after the solemnization of the mar
riage vows Mr.. Ferry commenced course
OF tyrannical and abusive conduct toward
the complainant, which continued with
very slight intermissiou until they sep
arated eleven months ago. So inhu-
man was the treatment she received at
his hands that it was unsafe and inn
proper for the ON plainant to live with him.
About March the 80, 1880, the defenla Mt,
in addition to the large property OF which
he was the owner at the time OF their mar
riage, inherited by the death Of his father
an estate worth about $50, 900, but refused
her decent provision for her support and
compelled her to perform mental duties
and drudgery. He wouldn't give her
money with which to buy her clothes for
the children. The materials from which
the children's clothing was made were
generally cast-of garments OF the defend
ants family. She went without a new
hat for seven years after she was married.
and had to wear old dresses made over.

the part Of all interested Is the surest path to
national greatness and the happiness Of all our
people; that capital should, in recognizing the
brotherhood OF our citizenship and in spirit of
American fairness, generously accord to labor
its just compensation and consideration, and
that contenred labor is capitals best protection
and faithful ally. 1t would teach, too, that the
diverse situations Of our people are insaperable
from our civilization: that every citizen should,
in his sphere, be a contributor to the general
good: that capital does not necessarily tend to
the oppression Of labor. and that violent dis
turbances and disorders ALLEVIATE from their pro-
moters true American sympathy and kindly
feeling.

THE CIVIL SERVICE.

The continued operation Of the law relating
to orr civil service has added to the most con-
vincing proofs OF its necessity and usefulness.
IL Is fact worthy Of note that every public OIL
Ger who has just idea Of his duty to the people
testiies to the value OF this reform. Its
staunchest friends are found among those who
understand it best, and It's warmest supporters
are those who are restrained and projected by
its requirements. The meaning OF such restraint
and protection Is not appreciated by those who
want places under the government regardless of
merit and efficiency, nor by those who insist
that the selection for such places should rest
upon proper credential showing active partisan
work They mean to the good people Of the
their government. 1t is exceedingly strange
that the scope and nature Of this reform are
so little understood and that so many
things not included. within its plan
are called BY its name. :. When
