The CORPORAL at Milwaukee.

Corporal Tanner Is said to be the biggest
man at the or nd army encampment at
Milwaukee Only two o-her persons ap-
Iroach him in popularity and they arc Gen.
Sherman and Mrs. Logan. He is never so
happy as " hen he is at a grand army gath
ering. He does a great deal of talking
upon such occasions. Nothing gives him
m re pleasure than 70 make a speech He
Is rathe entertaining or tor, but he does
not always talk sound sense. Indeed, he Is
given to saying very ,olish things. He
peases his hearers, however, aud that is
of more Importance to him than the dissem-
inatiOn Of correct ideas
He thinks that the taxpayers ought to
favor liberal pensions bee iuse, he says,
1.-The money is distributed in every city,
and village, and hamlet" According to
this idea Of Corporal Tanner the taxpayers
ought t. ask to be more heavily taxed in
order that there might be a greater di,tri-
button of money. If he is right the more
the taxpayers are taxed the better of they
are.
The taxpayers will hardly agree with him.
They know very well that in proportion as
the taxes are increased their burdens are
increased. The revenues of the government
come out Of their earnings, and when the
revenues are increased the amount Of their
earnings which they are permitted to retain
is decreased. Corporal Tanner doesn't
think so, however, and the fact that he
Doesn't shows that he is unfit for the high
official position he holds.
No doubt he will express some of his
absurd ideas at the Milwaukee encamp-
ment. He will manage to secure an ppor-
tunity to make a speoch. If his frie IDS de-
sire him to retain his Office, they should
muzzle him if they can. He is determined
to get some sort of an Endorsement from the
grand army people, aud there is no doubt
he will succeed Doubtless the P esident
would have called for his resignation sew
eral weeks ago if Ia vas not afraid of his
influence with the grand army.

Smoking In the Barn.

The man who goes about his barn
with pipe or cigar Is recommended to
take out an insurance pol cy at once

horse in the stable. He said he hat

out causing an explosion, but he would
be very reckless man who should at
tempt it. 1t needs but a spark among
hay or straw to burn down a barn with
the probable loss of all there is in it
Never do any thing which is likely to
cause a fire II a fire in the barn does
occur, there is one thing that is well to
remember. Horses are frightened ''out
of their wits by fire, You can not lead
a horse from a burning barn in the
ordinary way. The best way is to blind
fold the animal. This may be done by
throwing a coat or blanket over the
head. Western Rural.

A tendency to rheumatism is undoubtedly
inherited. Unlike many other legacies, it
remains in the family. The most effectual
means of checking this tendency, or of re-
moving incipient rheumatism, whether pre-
existent in the blood or not, is to resort to
Hostetter's stomach bitters as soon as the
premonitory twinges are felt. Multiplying
the influences of cold, exposure and fatigue,
the Bitters not only fortifies the system
against their hurtful consequences, but sub
jugates malaria, liver and kidney complaint,
dyspepsia and nerve disquietude.

THE CHICIGO MYSTERY.
pr. Cronin's Whereabouts stitl . Mys-
 tery to His Friends.

CHICAGO, May S.-From an incident now related by E. F. Cragin 1t would seem that Dr. Cronin knew on Saturday evening that he would be engaged in some unusually important business for the few days following.
 Dr. Cronin called at the Union League club Saturday afternoon, and seeing MT. Cragin in company with other gentlemen asked permission to speak to him pri- vately.
 "He said to me privately" said MT. Cragin, "that he would be very busy for the coming three or four days and would not have time to attend to a certain mat ter had spoken to him about.
 "While cannot say positively that he said he was going out of town, yet that is the impression his conversation left OF my mind. He did not say whither he was going and did not intimate what the nature of the important business was. He was in his right senses and looked cheerful and happy"
 The theory that Dr. Cronin was mur- dered Is not generally credited now, and it Is believed that the finding of the trunk saturated with blood and containing blood-stained cotton batting will develop some other crime.
 The Conklins, nevertheless, still main- tain that the doctor was murdered, but a large number of people think that he has gone away on some mission of his own.
