HORSE THIEvEs.-No little excite
ment has prevailed in Richland County
of late over the exploits of band of
horse thieves. Several teams have been
stolen there. The sheriff of that county
with a posse secured that section for
the thieves pretty thoroughly, but were
unable to spot them. Their last ex-
plot was some time during Sunday
night, one week ago, when they stole a
fine bay team from farmer about two
miles from Richland Center, and made
their way to another place, where they
helped themselves to a jump-seat buggy,
harness and robes. They were traced
from several places and were heard Of
last in that section near Excelsior,
from where it was believed they went
west. Last Monday morning they pass
ed through Boscobel. From there they
drove TO Fennimore, and through Ian
easter Tuesday afternoon. From this
city it is thought they drove to Iowa by
way Of Spechts Ferry There were
three of them, and are described: One
. middIe-aged man with red whiskers,
one an elderly man, and the other a
boy a reward Of $3.50 is offered by
the RichlaaI County parties for the ar
rest Of the thieves and the recovery Of
the property.

NORMAL REVIEW SCHooL.-m our
last issue, we called attention to the fact
advertised in the HERALD, of the open
inc of Normal Review School at Cass-
vile, to be conducted by Prof. C. r.
Showalter, of that village The plan is
a most worthy one and capable of great
expansion. 1t meets a want long known
to exist among teachers, especially those
without the advantages of a collegiate or
normal training. The enterprising and
progressive young teacher is not content
to pass vacation in doing nothing, while
so many branches of his realm of know
ledge he has not explored. For years,
the Mecca to which these pilgrims have
journeyed every summer, has been at
Valparaiso Indiana, where their thirst
for learning has been in a measure
quenched The Normal school there is
the largest in the country, having about
2,200 students, who are made up large
ly of teachers fitting themselves for
graded work Mr. Showalter is to be
commended for the work he has inaug-
urated and as he is fully qualified to con-
duct an institution of this class, no rea-
son exists why he should not have great
success.

Othello was given last Wednesday
night in Hyde's Hall, by the O'Conor
Company, with James Owen O'Conor
as Othello and Miss Marian Wallack as
Desdemona. The company with the
exception of these two artists was very
poor. 1t is sufficient testimony to the
strength of their acting to say, that
their spite of wholly incapable support
they carried the audience with them.
and redeemed the play by their artistic
power. O'Conor's Othello is power
full conception. At times his acting is
superb and terrifying in the realistic
portrayal of love, jealousy, rage and
revenge. He has fine voice which he
uses effectively. For stage mannerisms
his bearing is dignified and impressive.
He overcomes our prejudice and we
cease to wonder that Desdemona loved
him. His acting could be criticized in
many points, but taken as whole it is
strong enough to overshadow the de-
fects and make his Interpretation of
Othello most acceptable one. Miss
Wallack was the devoted, gentle BESIDE
mona, and her portrayal of the charac-
ter was charming, her acting was fin
ished and graceful, intense, and in the
death scene was painfully effective
The part of Iago was consigned to Mr..
Edward Hoyt, and ruthlesslY slaugh-
tered. His conception of the part was
entirely false. In his hands the subtle,
insinuating, intellectual Iago became a
grimacing bulfoon. Of the rest of the
company there is nothing to be said.

Death of Hon. Hampton L. Jarna-
gin.

The sad task devolves on us to re-
cord the death of the Hon. ii. l. jar
nagin who breathed his last on Wed
nesday evening at 20 minutes past 9
O'Clock. HIS death was not uuOxpect-
cd, as he had been a sufferer for the
past two or three weeks from q malig-
nant carbuucle, which nj his age, def
cd the treatment of his skilled physi-
clans. A long and useful life as n citi-
zen, a chistian, husband and psrent is
closed on earth forever, but that lie
was 50 interviewer with the history of
our town. and we might say that OF
the state, he will not be forgotten. 10
the family, and those with whom he
was connected, is left the sympathy OF
our entire community, and no one
will be so missed as his familiar form
on the streets, IN the Court room, and
the church, of which he was such de-
voted member.

member,

While our savants and archaeologists
are dclving among the ruins OF Troy,
or exhuming relics of tho ancient
mound builders, to obtain records Of
the prehistoric man, the prehistoric
hoy is conspicnously neglected.
Though Of Il much more recent date,
we possess 10 clue to the manner IN
which his evolution has been pro-
duced. In our day, that is within the
last century, we have had the fat boy,
the little drummer boy, the boy that
stood Oh the burning deck, and fctk's
bad boy. to say nothing OF the army Of
news-boys. Prior to the period al
Iuaed to, tie history of the boy is
merged IN ohscurity, and no remains,
fossil or otherwise, can be found ID
our museums of natural history, or
about the spots that know him no
| more forever. Even in later times,
the Ratchet of the boy, Geo. Washing
ton is but n ghost, and exists only in
the imagination of the few truth-|ov-
ing people that adorn he present aye.
That boys really existed before our
records became tangible, there is little
room for doubt. The number OF small
rocks scattered loosely over extensive
areas, probably indicate that the anti
deluvinn boy hurled them at the me
oathcrium, the Tcuglodon, or the
Plcsiosaurus, if those animals indeed
existed in the aye of pebbles. llisto'
nv has never done the Boy justice
While we have, minute records Of tht
seigcs aud battles Of men, the kll'eC
and manned and the lives OF the grca'
warriors who tonight and stole ant
burned cities, we have no account o
the embryo heroes, who could coun'
their bloody nose by thousands, ant
distinguished themselves in their dnr
in2 raids on fruit orchards and water
melon patches, and while we arr
aware that the apocryphal exploits o
little Jack lIorncr and Jack the Clan
Killer still exist, they are not history
and shed no light on the habits ant
deeds OF the bows Of q past noe.
