The editor of the Courier seems very
much disturbed in regard to the identi-
ty of a certain contributor to the
TELEGRAPH, who writes over the
cognomen 3D." and duplicates an in
nocent person in that heinous sin,
whose name he has no right to drag
before the public, I'D" pleads guilty
to his own sins in producing "heavy
reading" which is no more than
might have been expected when he
first began to scribble.
In order to satisfy the perturbation
of the redoubtable editor, we will state
a solemn truth. Some time in March
last the editor of the TELEGRAPH was
confined to his room from illness, and,
consequently, unable to discharge his
entire editorial duties, and, through

1t had for some time been rumored
that Mr.. T. d. Weeks, of Whitewater
would offer himself as candidate for
Congress, and now the Whitewater
Register makes the announcement that
he will be Republican candidate in
the first district. Mr.. Weeks, so far as
we know, has good record, and is a
capable and worthy gentleman. This
gives us three candidates from which
to select-Caswell, Cooper and Weeks
all good men, Our preference has
heretofore been indicated, and the rea.
sons therefor. Either of these who
may receive the nomination will doubt
less have the cheerful support of Re-
publicans.

The oleomargarine bill is now law
The discussions on the bill had been
long protracted, commanding some of
the best talent in Congress. The Presi-
dent held the bill several days under
advisement before signing it. The
question of taxing imitation butter
seems a simple one, but it was found
to involve important matters of public
policy, as well as constitutional right.
The full text of the law will appear
hereafter.

Forest fires have been raging in the
woods of Wisconsin and Michigan inter-

Lumbermen assert that nearly all the
destructive ccnfagrations which occur
in the woods are the result of gross and

part of exploring, camping or prospect
ing parties having no material interest
in the country through which they pass.

George w. Boardman is one who
grew up from boyhood to manhood in
this place. He has relatives here, and
very many old acquaintance who
have not heard from him in years.
For the information of such, we pub.
lish portion of a late letter received
from him. Mr.. Boardman. on leaving
this place, went to Washington City,
where his uncle, Hon. Charles Durkee,
then member of Congress, procured a
situation for him in the Government
Land Office. While in that Office he
was appointed Register Of a United
States land Office in Missouri. In that
state he was elected to the State Senate.
This was during the years when Carl
Schurz was a resident of that state,
and was instrumental in the downfall
of the Republican party in Missouri.
On the return of Mr.. Boardman to
Washington he engaged in dealing in
Government stocks. Now it appears
from letter just received, he is at Ia
coma, on the Pacific coast, at the ter
mination of the Northern Pacific rail-
road. 1t will be noticed from the let
ter of Mr.. Boardman, like all other
western men engaged in new enter
prises, he is very enthusiastic.
TACoMA, WASHINGTON TER,
July 81, 1886.
MY DEAR FRIEND.
You will not be surprised to see a
letter from me at this place, the future
metropolis of the great Northwest on
the Pacific. | am delighted with the
town and the country. The climate is
very fine, the summers being much
cooler and the winters far warmer than
in Washington City. 1t seldom freezes
here, and flowers bloom nearly all
winter.
This is a good town in which to
make investments. There is no ques-
ton but that it will have a population
of $4,000 souls in five years. By next
Christmas the Cascade division of the
N. p. r. r. will be completed, when
trains from st. Paul will arrive at the
wharves in the harbor.
Very truly yours,
GEO. W. BOARDMAN.

frontispiece of pamphlet written about
the w hite Lady, and over the picture is
the following quaint heading:
'The appearance of the White Lady in
the Castle and her remarkable Prophecies
made in the night from the 3lst Of March
TO the LIST of April of the year 1893, as told
by Musketeer, who had the watch that
same night"
But the historian Minutoli rather
shakes our belief in the genuineness Of
spectral appearances altogether when he
tells us that though in the years between
1873 and 1902 the White Lady frequently
caused panics in the Berlin Schloss, when
the people went earnestly to work to cap
ture her they usually discovered her to

out on to the Spree, proved, on closer ex-
ANIMATION, TO be caused by the reflection
OF the moonlight from the quiverlng wa

seen in one of the corridors by Lieut..
Won W., turned out to be pretty young
woman of the court who ought to have
Deen in bed. Herr Won Minutoli also re-
cords the fact OF the spectre having been
seen by sentinel in the SchlOss in 1850.
The soldier struck at the vision with his
bayonet, whereupon the spectre fed
away, screaming loudly. In the follow
Ing May, at midnight, a sub-otficer was

SchWarze Mine, who had lett the kitchen

MARRIED TO CHINAMEN.
Plump. Rosy Checked German Girls
Who Love Men with Queues.

ttNftOttte a
CHICAGO, April 9.-Sun Wah, a Chi
nese dude, was married yesterday to Miss
Augusta Miller, a pretty German girl of
y years. The ceremony was performed
in Mr.. Abbotts Office. Mr.. Abbott is a
friend and acquaintance of Sun Wah.
The groom was attired as becomes a
bridegrOom-in the best that could be pur-
chased. His queue was tastefully cooled,
his pantal0ons were built on the three
bushel-sack plan, and his shoes looked
ikeembroidered boxing gloves. The bride
was in bridal array, and over her tinery
she wore sealskin sacque-none of your
plush counterfeits, but the real fur. The
couple were accompanied by Augustus
cousin, Lizzie Wing Lee, nee Miller, who
was married to Mr.. Wing Lee Monday.
Rev. Mr. Walker began by saying that
the first miracle was performed at a we'd
ding, when water was turned into wine.
He proceeded in the usual ministerial
form, and at the close of the ceremony
took advantage of his position and kissed
the bride and bridesmaid. Sun Wah
shook hands with all the witnesses and
left something IN tbe minister's hand
when he clasped it. Then the bridal party
took street car and went to Suns laun-
dry in the basement of GIT Blue Island
avenue. Lizzie Miller and Wing Lee
were also married by Rev. Mr.. Walker,
in Mr.. AbbOtt's office. Like her cousin,
Lizzie was bedecked in wedding gar
ments and sealskin sacque.
Wings queue, by the aid Of silk thread,
almost touches the ground, and the front
of his head is covered with several
weeks growth of hair.
The girls came from Milwaukee, and
have been working as dOmestics.
Sun Wan and Wing Lee both do pros
porous business, and are reputed to be
worth over $1,000 each. They are mem
bers of a sunday school. They told their
friend, Mr.. Abbott, that they have no be-
liefin the Christian religion, but attend
Sunday school to learn the language.
There are now in Chicago five China
men married to white women, and all of
the women are Germans. Lee Yate. a
laundTyman at the corner of Thirty-frst
street and Cottage Grove avenue, has
been married over four years. He is the
father of two Chino-Teut0nic girls-one
years and the other l year old, and they
are very pretty children. They have the
oblique, small, dark eyes of the Chinese,
and fine black hair, while the lower part
of the face is decidedly German-rosy and
plump, like their mothers. The older one
jabbers German TO her mother and Chi
nese to her father, and drinks literally
from his teapot, on the irOning-board.
