THE REV. LOTHARIO-FONDo OF WOMEN
WINE AND SONG.
The Topeka Daily Citizen, March 30,
contains the following pointed facts:
The recent escapades of the Rev. p.
NrOhn, preacher, temperance organizer
and memker Of the board of charities,
brings up afresh some old matters which
have never before been published con-
corning his liaSSOns in this city, which,
while not backed up by the strongest
kind of truth are nevertheless sufficient
" well vOuched for to leave little room
for doubt by those familiar with them.
1t would seem that the reverend doc
tors weak point was fair women, to
whose smiles he fell an easy captive, and
if reports be true he was also quite fond
of the fOaming lager and the sparkling
wine.
Certain it is that he was requested to
vacate room which he occupied in
the city during the session of the leglS-
lature in the winter of 1854 for the
reason that there were too many female
visitors, or that the same ones were
llltI6 IOO Olltll. ilC 1OoAiI Ndp INhONu
by wealthy resident of a neighbOring
city, a private citizen whose acts are
not in question. but was used as much
by the reverend doctor as by himself.
IN fact, krOhn generally made the room
his home when in the city. The people
from whom the room was rented, Oc
cupied sleeping apartments in another
part of the house. and only learned by
accident from a neighbOr that hacks
were frequently seen at late hour TO
to drive up III front, and that women
would alight and go in. During the
latter part of the time the party who
first rented the room was seldom in the
city, and Krohn occupied it alone except
when he had female visitors. When he
vacated the room he forgot TO remove
closet full of tell-tale wine and beer
bottles.
During last January krohn occupied
a room in one of the prominent hotels,
adjoining that of a woman, who passed
as Mrs. Baker. of Denver. The woman
is reported to have told a confident that
she had a mortgage of Sl60 to pay on
some property in Denver, and that
krohn had to give her that amount. She
afterwards said that he dId get it for her
and showed the money, remaTking that
il was state temperance union money.
She is described as handsome. bewitch-
ing woman. and is said to have had
complete control over him.

Minneapolis Messenger: His good
sense seems to have fOrsaken him for
once, and in consequence he has fallen
into an irretrievable and silly blunder.
He publishes long explanation which
does not explain. We have no word
of palliation for KrOhn. He was the
willing victim. He shut his eyes to
the facts of the situation and blindly
followed a maddened and debased in
fatuatiOn.

the curse of every lover of home in the

Junction City Union: Dr.. Krohn
was in Abilene just thirty-siX days and
already had two women on his string.
What would have happened in year
had he not been ''dOwned' was a prob
able contingency which caused great
panic among the men up there.

Junction Cdy Union: The doctor
defence, although a tritle thin, affords
us temperance men some fighting
ground to stand on. True, the Doctor
admits that he was in the girls room,
and as matter of protection he adj
yised her to register under an assumed
name. He makes no charge against
the cOnspiratorS of having forced him
to correspond with the girl. Being a
preacher and fOrty-five or fifty years
Old, it is to be presumed he was forced
to make All appointment to meet the
girl at hotel twenty-five miles away
from home. This however does not APP
pear in the evidence. Ministers of the
gospel and other correct and proper
people always make appointments
under assumed names away from home
with women of questionable character
to consult over family difficulties. But
in away down whisper we would like to
talk with George Washington Christie
pher Columbus ROhrer about the matter
before we commit Ourself. All the
bows who know Dr. KrOhn like him.
We have met him briefly two or three
times, and we believe we would like
him too. We are sorry to see a man OF
his power 60 down, but us Temperance
men believe that in the end it bitetll
like a serpent and stingeth like an adder,
or words to that effect, whether 1t be
bug Juice or a strange woman.

H0,Caid Democrat: No comment is
necessary on the actions of DR.. KrOhn.
That he deliberately worked for nearly
six weeks to bring about the result
that was apparently frustrated by the
entrance of Baker and the officers,
shows a mind so foul that it is its own
condemnation.
The Abilene reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1883-1888, 1886-04-08

BelOd Democrat: 1t is no eXtenuatiOn
of the error whether KrOhn was caught
in the trap set by the enemies or not,
as he voluntarily walked into the trap.
He was the easiest cOught of big fish
of which we ever heard, and was safely
and permanently landed.

saying that he only intended it to try
her. She told lady friend of it, and
the lady friend said that DR.. KTohn had
done the same thing in Albany. She
denied intimacy with him, but other
testimony proved she was an exceeding
" lively young woman. Micheal Mol
10y of III Fourth street, Troy, another

men, ~ September, 1879, to the Rev.
DR.. krohn, whose apartments were
occupied by a lady whom the DR.. in
troduced as Mrs. Howard, and who
continued in the rooms nearly a year,
DR.. Krohn being her only visitor.

EmpOria Democrat: 1t may seem IN
manly to kick man when he is already
down, but when we take into consider
alton the foul utteranceS that emanated
from the divine" mouth of Reverend
Krohn in his campaign speech in this
city year ago last fall we feel no COM
Function in seeing the mask torn from
him, and regard it as a duty to the
public to place such men before it in
their true light.

Laurence Gazette: The prohibition
wOrshipers Will doubtless be exceeding
" shocked at the revelations recently

Rev. Phillip KrOhn, was caught I'M
dressed in a young lady's room late at
night in a Junction City Hotel. We
have always noticed a suspicious twinkle
in the eyes of the otherwise sanity
appearing Phillip, but we were UMPIRE
pared for the announcement that he
possessed so we'll defined a yearning
after the flesh pots of Egypt.

and. nevertheless, went blindly forward
regardless of consequences. He was
caught in a very compromising position,
and his captOrs made the most of it.
They had intended to catch him; they
set trap for him and he weakly, fool
ishly, fell into it. 1t is not probable
that any explanation which the doctor
can offer Will be listened to. 1t is ex-
ceedingly doubtful whether he can
make an explanation which will clear
his character and restore him to his
place in society.

Usage City Free Press: DR.. Krohn is
a degraded and ruined man. His good
name and high standing in the state,
in an evil hour, was swept away.
Penance for the balance of his
life will not reinstate him in the
confidence of and the respect of the
people. There is no place-no spot in
the civilized world in which he can
hide from this stain upon his name.

The mining outlook for Idaho
this seas0n is. good. The. strikes
of Wood River at enormous depths
have attracted the attention Of
mining men from all parts of the
globe. The placer mines along
Snake river are receiving unusual
attention, and from the present &C.
tivity along the river it is very con-
elusive that there will be a great
deal of work done this season. The
mines of the Lava district, Saw
tooth, Bayhorse, MuldOon, Bull
lion, Atlanta, etc., have all pulled
through a rough winter with
brighter prospects this spring than
ever before, while the celebrated
Orc Elmo and other mines in the
vicinity of Silver City are coming
to the front again with increased
productions. Mining in Idaho has
just fairly commenced, and her
output henceforth will gradually
crawl up.-Albion Times.

Only Half Alive.

There are hosts of men and women who
to coin phrase, arc only half alive. Tha,
is to say, have seldom if ever any appetite
are nervous, weak, fidgetty and troubled by
numberless small pains and aches. In the
presence of vigorous, exuberant vitality
they seem mere plgmies. Such persons are
usually fond of frequently dosing them
selves, swallowing in the course of the year
enough drugs to stock any apothecary'
shop of average dimensions. This, OF
course, defeats instead of furtherng the
end in view, Aiz: the recovery of health and
vigor. Were they to seek from an unfailing
source of vitality, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, how different would be their case.
Then vigor would return to their debiitated
frames, the glow of health to their wan
cheeks. their trembling uncertain gate
would grow firm and elastic, appetite, that
grandcst of all sauces, would give relish
for the daily food, were it ever so coarse.
and refreshing sleep would crown the tasks
of the day.

Last week some quartz showing
a liberal quantity ofgold, was sent to
town from Pahranagat The quartz
is said to have been brought there
by an Indian, who was afterwards
followed, and the place discovered
about eighty miles from Hike. A
four-horse team and several ranch
ers started for the Breyfogcl ccun-
try, where the Brefogel ledge had
been found to a dead certainty, and
where they were going to load
up with gold, return home
and remain idle the remainder of
their days. They got within forty
miles tf the place with their team
and being unable to get any fur
Their with their team, they all re-
turned home. with a small piece of

BUTLER ON BOYCOTrING.

Gen. B. I. Butler has this to say
about boycotting: ct is utterly
unjustiiiable and should not be
adopted by the laboring men, es-
pccially because it is a weapon OF
capital used by capital from time
beyond memory That is to say,
whoever in all the worlds history
has stood forth as an advocate OF
the rights of labor, whether in the
forum as a politician, in the legis-
lstive hall as O statesman, in the
courts as a lawyer, or in the prees
as a journalist, has always been
boycotted by capitalists. Now
when the laborer by legal means
md organization through the bal
lot-box can control capital and
make laws as labor pleasss. why
xseert to partial, illegal and al.
most always unjust remedy; such
as .hoycotins, which istbe misefa-

Senator Stewards Pamphle {.

Stewards last pamphlet on the
Chinese question has been received
at this office. 1t handles the ques-
ton of the relations between the
Chinese and Caucasian races ex-
haustivcly and ably. The merit OF
the argument rests on his compar-
ison between the Chinese and the
sheep herds. He says that the
main factor in the struggle for SUI
premacy lies in the adaptability OF
the Chinese for a low diet. They
fatten where a white man would
starve, and thus the white man. is
driven out. He compares it to the
struggle between sheep and cattle
now going on in this State. The
sheep roam the pastures occupied
by cattle and in a few years the
range becomes almost a barren spot.
The sheep takes possession and the
bovine which is much the nobler
animal is obliged to move off. The
work deals with live topic and
will bear perusal.-Tuscarora
Times.

One Of the strongest and mos
substantial aids in the mining de.
velopment of this country has al
vet not been recognized and appre
ciated at its true value. We refer
to the local paper and mctropoli-
tan journals devoted to. the up
building of the mining industry.
Through all the vicissitudes'of its
history mining has had class OF
journals laboring in its behalf, pro-
claiming the richness and advant-
ages of different localities, adver-
Using in capital centers the attrac-
tons and possibilities of invest
ment in the most favorable light,
building up and maintaining the
prosperity of new and untried
fields. No other line Of business
has had such faithful and able sup
port, so much free advertising, such
valuable assistance from the press,
or in fact owes its present sub
stantial prosperity SO largely to The
influence of this one agent, and yet
no business has so poorly rewarded
its strongest helper, and so heart
lessly ignored the strongest pillar
of its strength and perpetuity. The
history of newspaper enterprise in
the mining country is the history
of q march across a desert, and
still continues to be SO to a most
shameful extent. The metropolitan
journals, devoted to the upbuild-
ing Of the mining industry, estab-
lisEing it upon a permanent basis
and presenting its true merits and
real value to the consideration Of
capitalists and business men, have
been compelled in every instance
to reach outside into other fields to
maintain their existence. Such
condition of affairs is not credita-
bic to an industry of such charac-
ter and magnitude as this one,
founded upon the magnificent min
eral resources of the continent, and
whose annual production, aeaching
into the millions, is one of the
chief factors of national and bust
ness prosperity.
