Objection to Religious Rules by Oatho-
lies Causes the Outbreak.
LIVERPOOL, Feb. la mutiny oc-
CURED to-day among the lads on the re-
formatory ship Clarence, which is lying
in the Mersey. AT a preconcerted eignal
the lads in a body, attacked the officers
With Delaying pins, firearms, and other
weapons. The officers drew revolYers
and hred into the mntinOus
crowd and tried in vain TO force them to
lay down their weapons and return TO
their places. The boys continued their
assault, and at last compelled the officers
TO seek shelter. The lads then lowered
the boats, into which they crowded, and
the boats drifted down the stream with
the tide. The Clarence's officers, after
the departure Of the boys, made signals
to tho authorities ashore, and soon several
bOafs filed with police put out and called
70 the boys to surrender.
THE MUTINEERs SURRENDER.
The youngsters deeming resistance use
less gave up and were tagen back TO the
ship. The ringleaders were placed in
irons. Eighteen lads and two officers re-
ceiVed wounds in the fight. Two years
ago the lads confined on the Clarence set
fire to the ship. An investigation shows
that the mutiny arose out of a religious
dispute over certain rules Of the ship. as
all the mutineers were Catholics. The
outbreak mad been planned for several
days. Tho wounded have all had to be
removed To hospitals. Thirteen OF the
lads who led the mutiny have been placed
under arrest.

This Institution was organized
about seventeen years ago, for the
purpose of developing and setting
forth the industrial resources Of
Southwestern Wisconsin. Its his
tory tells plainly how well il has
succeeded. II the very first year
of its existe 81 it achieved a decided
success; and it has annually increas-
ed in importance, until now it vies
with the several state agricultural
societies throughout the country in
variety and quality of stock, prod
use, etc, exhibited. Indeed, the
Mineral Point fair is to the south
western part If the state what the
stale fair is to the section where it
il held. II brings into notice the
very best stock TO be found on ex
hibition anywhere, for it does not
lOoaize the homes of the exhibitors,
and fosters a desire in all for good
stock, by allowing everybody to ex-
hibit their best and compete for the
liberal premiums. The mere seeing
of fine stock, etc, begets in most
individuals desire to possess some
just as good or better.
These annual meetings also fur
nish an opportunity for the indus
trial classes to meet in friendly com
munion and compare notes on gen
eral and special results in their sew
eral yocations, az well as to have a
real holiday and vacation from the
humdrum of everyday life. Barring
the effect of the dry season the fair
this year promises to be the equal to,
and in several lrespects better, than any
Of the many meritorious exhibitions
in the history Of the society. The

ion for the purpose of improvement,

SATURDAYS dailies came out with
sensational reports Of several cases
of cholera in Wisconsin. A Mon
days dispatch to .he Sentinel from
MilladOre sets at rest the last of
these reported cases of cholera. Like
the cases reported from Chippewa
Falls and Madison, those at Milla-
dore were simply cases of cholera
norbus in an aggravated form. The
dispatch from that place says:
"fhere have been and are no cases
If cholera here. Six children have
died from cholera morbus and dys-
entary, which, it is supposed, was
caused by drinking impure water"

in Wisconsin has proven false, yet,
III view of the presence of the
plague now in Italy and of the fact
that for several summers past it has
regularly visited southern Europe,

the people of the United States to
take all reasonable sanitary precau

the disease into this country. In
amy event, nothing could be lost by
SUCH precautionary efforts, and a

the hill the friction of the wheel
upon the ground ignited the dry grass

It required The combined Efforts of

slim. Still the Indications at present
are that the farmers are to be agree
ably surprised after all. One sturdy
aud experienced tiller was heard TO
say the other day that it surpassed
his comprehension how anything
grew. He has been farming in this
section for over thirty years and the
drouth this season surpassed any
thing he ever experienced. He re-
garded ii as the severest test the
soil has ever had, and sufficient TO
prove that none better can be found
anywhere. The lasting quality and
fertility of Wisconsin soil have long
been advocated, and it might be
said proven in several ways, but the
drouth of 1886 has demonstrated it
so clearly that no room for doubt
exists. Properly considered there
is more reason for one and all to be
thankful than otherwise. With the
visitation we have experienced many
are the sections that could not
escape a famine.
