VIM. Brown, the colored waiter who
stabbed and killed Charles Roberts on a
dining car near Glencoe last June, plead
ed guilty to manslaughter in the Grimm
al court at Chicago, and was sentenced
by Judge Tuley to ten years in the peni-
Tertiary. 1t was shown by the testi-

The politician who processes to love
the whole country, and yet confines his
efforts to promoting the interests of his
constituents, and those only, may well
be suspected of infdelity. So the lover
of humanity rejoices to see good coming
to man, no matter what the instrument.
While we see indications of prosperity
and successful effort on the part of other
institutions of learning, it has given e.
pecial satisfaction to note evidence of
health and prosperity in our public
schools.
About six o'clock on Sunday morning
some of the men boarding at Peter
Rhodes, on Milwaukee avenue, were
awakened by smoke in their room.
They Immediately got up and went
down stairs. On looking into Jacob
Herrmann's shoe store they discovered
a small blaze of fire about four feet from
the stove. They woke up Michael
Hammang, who lived in one end of the
building, and then ran to the engine
house and fire hydrant across the street.
When they attached the hose to the by
drant they found the water would not
run, as the valve was frozen. An alarm
was sounded, and the crowd that gather
ed ran the hose down to the hydrant
III. Wilden's, and, on attaching
it, the water did run for about minute,
but, as the men were considering where
to 60 for water, it forced itself through
the valve and ran through the $50 feet
Of hose. By this time the entire build
ings were in blaze and nothing could
save them. In fact so rapidly did the fire
ourn that it was impossible to save hardly
anything in them. The stores in the
over part of the buildings were occu-
pied by M. Hammang as a saloon, w.
Dagenbach as cigar and tobacco store,
Ind Jacob Hermann as boot and shoe
'tore. Mr.. Rhode occupied the fourth
store during the summer as butcher
shop, but discontinued business some
time ago. He occupied the upper part
IS boarding house and residence.
He lost all his furniture, including a fine
piano, as well as the fixtures and furni-
ure of the saloon and butcher shop, on
vi of which there was no insurance, his
policy having expired short time since
md was not renewed. The buildings. |
which consisted of the old Lutheran
,hurch and school house, he purchased
! few years ago, and which he removed
md fitted up at considerable expense,
he had insured for $4,000, which is not |
lear their value. His loss on furniture,
aloon fixtures and butcher shop tools |
md fixtures, is over 81 900. Mr.. Ham
nang's loss on furniture and stock of liq- |
Tors, &C., is about 81 200; insured for |
$50 :; Mr.. Dagenbach estimates his loss
m cigars, tobaccos, fixtures, &c, at |
i 900; insured for $400. Mr.. Herr
mann carried large stock of boots and
hoes, on which he had only 81, 600 in |
urance.
