DAVID WHITNEY.

Died at Mazomanie. Wis, June rs, 1888, Da-
vid Whitney, aged eighty-nine years, four
months and ten days. Br. Whitney was a ma
tive of Connecticut. In early life he left New
England and settled near Rochester, N. Y.
Here he was married, and here he raised his
family. In 1910 his companion was taken from
him. and few years later he came with his
children to Wisconsin and settled, living most
of the time at Mazomanie. with his daughter
and her husband. D. W. Bronson. Br. Whit
ney was highly esteemed as a man and a citi-
zen. In all his relations he was faithful and
true. His life was without a blemish. He
was very tender and affeetionate in his home.
and the last days and years of his life loving
hands kindly ministered to his wants and
smoothed his pathway to the grave. Though
he lived to be almost ninety years old, yet his
mind remained clear and strong to the last.
In early life he was a Quaker in faith, but he
became in full sympathy with the Universal
ist church, and died in firm belief of glori-
GUS immortality of all Gods children. On the
afternoon of July l, the funeral services were
conducted by the writer, at the home where
he had lived so long. The funeral was largely
attended, many of the old settlers being pres
emit in attestation of their esteem for the good
old man. He leaves behind him large num-
Der of relatives. including brothers, children.
grandchildren and great-grandcbildren. And
thus another sweet an sunny. and pure life
has gone out ON earth, to be lighted anew in
heaven. B. f. ROGERS.

REMARKABLE SURGERY.

The science of surgery has made such won
derful progress in modern times, that the
most intricate and delicate operations are
now undertaken and carried to successful
issue. There are now several well authenti-
Gated cases of what is known as pneumotony,
that is to say, the removal of diseased por-
tons of the lungs in cases of consumption.
While, however, this delicate operation has
sometimes been successfully performed, the
risks attending it are go great, and the
chances for recovery go slight, that it is sell
dom resorted to. The safest plan in SON.
sumptive cases is to use DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. This will always cure
the disease in its earlier stages, thoroughly
arresting the ravages of the terrible malady,
by removing its cause and healing the lungs.

DrNysoN. Tex, July 16.--Train men
on No 507 south bound Missouri,
Kansas and Texas passenger train,
report that Is thought to be an attempt
TO rob the train last night at Gibson
Station. in the Cherokee nation.
When the train reached Gibson five
men were observed on the south END
of the switch. All were heavily armed
and when the train swept by the gang
made an attempt to board 1t but were
unsuccessful on account of the rate OF
speed the train had attained before
1t reached them. The train men think
1t were the same gang who robbed the
tram at the Verdigris tank some weeks
ago. When the men were discovered
all hand. on the train made prepara-
tions to give them warm reception IN
case they stopped the train.

Senior Antonio Flores, peresdent.
elect Of the republic of Ecuador, who
is now in New York, has had the no.
vel experience of being nominated
and elected president while he was
thousands of miles from the scene of
action. Ecuador contains not more
than 100000 square miles of territory.
Senior Flores earnestly requested his
friends not to nominate him for the
Office. Nevertheless, as he has not
been in Ecuador for the past four
years, he is rather proud of his cleo.
ton.
On the night of the close of the
Republican National Convention, says
the Chicago Times, Gov. Foster aud
Gov. Foraker, of Ohio, met. Foster
openly accused Foraker Of treachery
to Sherman. Foraker colored in the
face, and Foster gave emphasis to his
accusation with the remark: "You
are trailer. You have dug grave
for yourself SO deep that you'll not
live long enough to crawl out of it.
made you what you have been, and
am ashamed of the job" The Incl
dent is vouched for by delegate who
saw the meeting and overheard the
remark.
The statement is made, on the au-
thority of Postmaster Dalton, of the
house Of representatives, that more
than $Ioo,o 900 is row available at the
capital to be wagered upon the cleo.
ton of Cleveland and Thurman.
Congressman Tim Campbell, of New
York, is authorized by a political club
in New York city to bet $2s, 900 in
this manner at odds of 100 to 50. A
number of democratic congressman
in the house bave also slgnifed their
desire to make individual wagers from
$1,000 to $4,000 at substantially the
foregoing odds.

State Of the Crops.

The Sleepers are among the largest
small grain farmers in the county.
Mr.. Gid Sleeper to-day gave areporter
a very clear idea of the condition Of
the wheat crop in his neighborhcod,
in fact of the county. In spite of the
dry weather Of weeks continuance,
to-day Mr. Sleeper saws is the first day
in which wheat has been dry enough
to thrash. This. seem singular as
the heat has been intense while not
drop Of rain has fallen for the past
seven days. The reason is that while
the sun has been hot there has been
little wind and wind is far more drying
than the sun but the greater reason is
that since the wheat was cut the weeds
have grown up waist high or as high
as the shocks of wheat and hence the
wheat shocks stand in a forest Of tall
weeds which the air can hardly touch.
1t will take month of good weather
to get wheat thrashed out in the county,
and all depends on the weather as to
damage to the crop, the damage so fal
not being great. The main injury SC
far to wheat and oats is in a little
blackening Of the grain thus reducing
the quality and price. The crop o
ootn is big but to secure it is what il
now the matter Of anxiety and contin
ued dry weather is a matter of prime
importance. The cotton, Mr.. Sleepe
states, is large and fine, and as to corr
nothing was ever seen like it.

Wool is still on the free list in the
tariff bill before the committee, &C.
cording to this mornings press dis
patches of congressional proceedings.
That the consideration Of the free
wool clause is final before the com.
mittee, and not to be reopened seems
conclusive from the following part of
the motion: son motion of Mills, of
Texas, the date on which the free
wool clause bill will 60 into effect was
fixed at October Ist, 1885," What
ever changes may be yet made in the
tariff bill in the committee, it is evil
dent that in the bill to be submitted,
wool will be free.
