The Dead and Wounded.

Forty-five wounded officers and men are at the
county Hospital. Officer Diegan is the only one
dead among the injured officers. The announce
ment of the death of officers Barrett and Hansen
was wrongly reported. At o'clock, Officer Bar
rett was reported dying, and there appears to be
little hope Of saving the lives of officers John
Miller, Jacob Hansen, Nelson Hansen and Thos.
Redden, The remaining % officers in the county
hssptal wards all have show of recovery, but
some are extremely low Two rioters, Emil Lutz,
and John Lepland, are in very critical condition
and it is expected they will die. The names of
the following persons at the hospital suffering
from wounds did not appear in the earlier ac-
counts: Strikers John Frazer, Frank Rush. Of
fcers, William Burns James Brady, Nels Hansen
On the door leading to the office of Arbieter
Zeitung the following notice in German is posted
"The Arbeiter Zeitung will not be published for
the next few days. All advertisements, etc., can
be left In saloon in the basement"
The indignation and concern of the general
public respecting the atrocious occurrence last
night, has been in no wise lessened as the day
has passed. The prompt action of the authorities
in arresting three of the chief conspirators and
accommodating evidence which WILL it is now be-
lieyed, fix the great crime upon them has called
forth unstinted praise All ordinary places of
business are open, but there is almost an entire
cessation of all ordinary transactions. Business
men are discussing the event in all its serious
aspects. The mayor has been assured by all
classes of citiZ9ns of their desire to aid him in
every possible way. Hon. Eiihu B. Washburn,
ex-lniniSter to France remarked today that he
had not known during the carnage enacted by
communists in Paris so utterly cowardly and
atrocious Il murder as that last night
Mayor Harrison this afternoon, after consulting
with his department officers and citizens, pub
lshed the following proclamation:
To the People of Chicago:

pie of this good city, growing out of labor troubles
which excitement Is Intensified by the open def

Whereas, last night these men by use of weap-

Going to Quit Smoking.

II am going to quit smoking cigarettes, said
young man who has led more than one ger
man in st. Paul. "What's the matters" l
asked. "Well," he responded, "it isn't be-
cause it's vile habit that is going to carry
me down to an early grave, or anything of
that sort. One placed me, or rather young
lady, in a very embarrassing position. There
is a certain charming young lady on st. An
thony hill whom 1 should like very much to
make my wife, and l know she feels as do.
But am not yet able to support a wife, so |
have never said word to the young lady's
parents.
"Well, the other evening she and l took a
stroll 1t was about $50 when we returned
to the house, SO did not go in. We stood
chatting a few moments, and I lighted a
cigarette. When she went into the house l,
of course, kissed her goodnight Well, with
out giving it thought she went in, babe her
mother goodnight, and kissed her also. The
old lady Immediately detected the smell of the
cigarette on her daughters lips, and ques-
toned her about it. The poor girl had either
to acknowledge that l kissed her or that she
smoked cigarette. When the young lady
told me about it l had not the courage to ask
her what course she chose. Now you know
why cigarettes and l will be strangers in the
future.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.

Got the Laugh on Them.

A neatly dressed colored man entered the
gallery of the New York Stock Exchange re-
Gently, to look at the session of the brokers
below. He leaned over the rail quietly and
made no disturbance; but some of the brok-
ers, seeing him. thought it would be funny to
insult their visitor by letting him understand
that they knew he was black Soa score or
more of them, not having anything better to
do, began to sing jubilee songs and mimic the
plantation dances Their performance was
very poor, but it seemed to amuse the colored
man in the gallery, who stood at his post
without any apparent discontinue, and when
the brokers were tired Of singing and dancing,
he gravely put his hand in his pocket and
drew forth ten cent piece, which he threw
to the brokers as one would pitch penny to
a hand-orgm man. Then he left, with the
laugh decidedly on his side.-The Argonaut.

RouIanper's Great Fault,

The great fault which can be brought
against Gen. Boulanger-and for this he will
be judged severely by those who pass sentence
on him now or hereafter-is that he has intro
duced politics into the army, Intentionally
and with persistence which it is difficult to
excuse This is the greatest misfortune which
could befall France-a misfortune which she
had hitherto escaped, and to which she is now
on the point of being condemned. We have
now to reckon with this new factor which
Gen. Boulanger has introduced into the pub
lie affairs of France, and perhaps even of
Europe. Lastly, it must be remembered that
when a man SO ambitious as Gen. Boulanger
is, and in command of the army of great
country, is ridiculed-as he has been by some
newspapers-as "a Bonaparte without vic
tories" he is melted to desire to complete the
resemblance.-Paris Cor. London Times.

HAYES and His Inaugural,

During the progress of the moonlight ex-
cursion at Duluth, the other evening, attended
by ex-President Hayes and other members of
the conference of charities who visited that
city, gentleman remarked to Mr.. Hayes
that he was in the crowd which listened to his
surprising inaugural address" as president,
adding, @but don't suppose you recognized
me at the time" "No," replied the ex-presi-
dent, Il recognized but one man in all that
crowd. My attention was early called to him
by the earnest manner in which he listened to
the address, and watched TO see what effect
certain portions of it would make upon him,
and was very much pleased to see that he
applauded often and vigorously. That man
was Fred Douglass. Pioneer Press "Lis-

CHEAP TRAVELLING IN EUROPE.
How to Enjoy a Six Weeks Trip Abroa
Cost Of the Journey,

How to Enjoy a Six Weeks Trip Abroad.
Cost of the Journey.
l wish in this letter to give some ideas for
those who wish to travel cheaply Euro
pean trip need not be much more expensive
than you wish to make it, and one can see
great deal for $500 and have a very pleasant
six weeks trip abroad Let him take one OF
the cheaper lines and decide that his expenses
shall not be more than this. He can Eut down
his ocean voyage at twenty days and its cost
at $780, He then has twenty-five days left to
do some parts Of Europe and nearly $40 day
for expenses. BY going to London he can
find excursion tickets at greatly reduced rates
over almost any route he wishes to go. These
tickets are limited to thirty or sixty days, and
in them one may easily 60 to Holland and Bel
GUM and down the Rhine, with short trip
through Switzerland and over to Paris and
back to London on less than $40 per day. In
London and Paris he can spend the time left,
after taking out the days necessary for this
trip, and at the end of the time he will
come back to the United States, having caught
glimpse of the best part of Europe and hav-
ing broader and better mind to enjoy his
future life.
In the first place one ought to lay out his
he will spend in the country and in the city.
Three days in Holland, two days in Belgium,
two days on the Rhine and three days in
Switzerland will enable him to see a great
deal, and if to this he adds three days for
Paris he has yet seven or eight days for Lon
don. By economy he can make his money
last longer than his six weeks, and for few
dollars more he can take in a slice of Ireland
and Scotland. The guides to Europe which
he can buy will give him the prices at the
various hotels, and he will find that he can
get good board for SO day if he understands
how to do it, One of these guides lies before
me, and take from it the cost of several
European tours
Here is one man who spent seven weeks
abroad visiting England, Scotland, Belgium,
the Rhine, Switzerland and France for SITS,
not counting in the cost of his ocean passage
He Travelled second and third class, and
stopped at good second-class hotels, such as
you may find in Europe but not in America.
Another traveller spent eight weeks in Eng
land and France for $165 exclusive of ocean
fares, and another took a run to Paris and
back and travelled for two months at cost of
only S120 for his expenses in Europe. Three
young men took a vacation of eight weeks,
going through England and the Rhine counr
try, through Switzerland and spending eight
days in Paris, at cost of only 1882 outside of
their ocean fares, and l doubt not the same
could be done by the man who wishes to
travel cheaply to-day.-Frank j. Carpenter

THE TURN OF THE TIDE.

The harbor lights are dim with smoke
Which hangs about the under sky,
And wraps the simple fisherfolk
In lurid mist as they so by.
Along the shore the wind blows free,
Keen twilight kisses the wan sea
Far out; steer thither, wStch with mo
The tender stars come out on high,
The sky is deepening overhead;
The sails flap loose; the wind has died;
Tho water laps the boat !l..c lead;
Faint ripples plash against the side,
And simmer with unearthly light,
The harbor lamps are out OF sight,
We drift into starless night
Together on the ebbing tide.
How still-how strange-the tide Is slack,
We eddy round-wc drift no more.
What swell is this which sweeps us back
To where the gathering breakers roar
About the pale, unlighted land.

Safe in the morning hand in hand

The large gathering of people at Union
hall, on Wednesday evening last, to oele-
brate the fifth marriage anniversary of Mr.
aud Mrs. E. W. Huntlcy, was a very enjoya-
bic affair Seldom we meet 30 many bright
and smiling faces in so large an assembly
which clearly proved that every one present
was equal to the occasion, and by their pres
ence, assistance and good humor, were de
sirous Of making this entertainment worthy
Of the success which II attained. The early
hours of the evening were devoted princ.
pay to an examination of the presents
which were very tastefully arranged on the
stage and table at the west side of the hall,
and comprising good variety Of desirable
and useful articles to the amount of $40, con-
trbuted chiefly by friends in Newfane and
Dummerston Noticeable among the many
was nice wool carpet, set of stone china
ware, silver ware, table and easy rocker.
beautiful wedding cake donated by Mrs Della
aud Jessie Park, deserves especial mention
Nice to look at and easy to take, as all who
tasted will bear witness. Then came our
genial Mr.. Davidson and with a few we'll
chosen words presented the gifts, responded
to by j. J. Green in behalf of the recipients
bountiful repast was then served in the
basement to partake of which all were in
vited and to remark that the inner man

tables. Preceding and during supper mem
bers of the q. A. r. and others volunteered
a number of songs, which were well received
and appreciated by the audience, and
following which came the gay aud social
dance apparently enjoyed by all, both young
and aged. Alessrs Hines, Higgins and Nor
cross still maintain the same good quality OF
music they always give on like occasions.
Thus closed an evenings festivities, to the
