Children in a Plot to Poison a DissoIute
Woman.

BUFFALO, \. Y, July 26-Mrs Wade
who keeps boarding house ON East Mar
kst street; Mary Sylvia, aged 10 years,
and her brother John, aged IA, We're ar
rested Thursday night, charged with at
tempting to poison Annie Silks, dissolute
woman, who lived with the children's
father. The boy confessed and said that
Mrs. Wade gave Mary money TO get OK
alic acid, laudanum and whisky She
then mixed the poison and gave it to Mary
to give to the Silks woman. Mary went
home for the purpose on two occasions,
but did not have nerve enough.
The Boy Possesses the Nerve.
Then Mrs. Wade prompted the boy to
administer the poison. He and a COM
panion named Johnnie Hayes took the
poison to the house and Hayes gave it to
the Silks woman. The woman became
very sick, but recovered. The girl Mary
also made statement corroborating that
of her brother. Mrs. Wade denies the sto-
ries told by the children and says that the
girl had told her that she intended to
poison the Silks woman and that she
had advised her to be careful. Mrs Wade
alleges that Mary tried to poison her so as
to get possession of her boarding house.

Significant Echoes

The postmasters and Others at Bush

for third term in congress -Aledo

The old soldiers of this district will re-
member Mr.. Gest this fall Ring rule
may nominate Gest, but to elect him is a
different thing, and Mr.. Gest will be

Keithsburg Nesos.
Whether last Tuesdays platform was
made to catch mocrstic votes or whether
it was mistake all around is problem
that possibly some of the republican
brethren can explain. 1t must have hurt
their conscience (if they had sny) too, to
endorse such tumble OF half hearted
protection and free trade. Il protection
was right two years ago why modify il
now? Such q platform would not have
received an asserting vote two years ago,
yet here it is. A simple bid for the sup
port Of voter that may be induced to
believe they mean what they say.-Bush>
nell Democrat.
If any evidence of the complete SUBJ
serviencY of the convention 10 the Gest
gang were needed. 1t is amply afforded
by perussl of the resolutions adopted.
He who expects to find manly express
sion of opinion or independent thought
will be disappointed at the twsddling
sYcopbancy and subservient me- too tone
of the resolutions. Perhaps, however.
they are all that could be expected of a
convention which would nominate q msn

EDITOR CHAIN. of the McDonough
County Democrat. makes the following
sensible suggestions in regard to party
organization:
The democratic party of McDonough
county needs better organization. 1t is
a remarkable fact it is successful in the
face of the fact that candidates depend
upon their individual efforts to gain an
election without any concerted action on
the part of any committee in the county.
or any help from any such body. II
every township would organize central
committee within itself, with member
from each school district. candidates
would not grope in the dark to the eve of
election, but could 90 to the polls with q
very fair idea of where their strength
lay. Every member of the county COM
mittee should see that this is done in his
township

Some years ago we were very much
subject to severe spells of cholera morbus
and now when we feel any of the symp-
toms that usually proceed that ai,ment,
such as sickness at the stomach, diar-
rhes, ETC., we become scary. We have
found Chamberlain Remedy the very
thing to straighten one out in such cases,
and always keep it about. 1t is some
what similar to the usual cholera cures,
but seems to contain ingredients that rem
der 1t more pleasant to take, and that do
their work more quickly. Sheriff Dever.

TALK GOES ON IN THE SENATE.
Plumb Gives Notice That He Doesn't Like
the Bill too Much.

Plumb Gives Notice That He Doesn't Like
the Bill too Much.
The senate took another turn at the tar
if bill yesterday, and the tone of the de-
bate was not encouraging for those who
hope to see that measure disposed of with
any degree of rapidity Vance said that
the bill might reduce the revenue. but
would not reduce the taxes Mcpherson
moved that the bill be recommitted with
instructions to rep ort a bill TO reduce the
revenue and equalize duties so that the
average rate of duty shall not exceed the
war tariff of 1864 He said that the .ver-
age referred TO was So 80 per cent.
Allison Favors a Reduction.
Sherman, criticising McPherson's re
mark about the average of 30 90, said that
it was upon all goods, dutiabe and I'M
dutiable, and that only 10 or 10 per cent.
of imported goods was on the free list.
Under the pending bill so per cent was on
the free list aud the other half on goods
dutiable and undutiable, would only be IL
or IS per cent.
Allison asked if Mcpherson was willing
TO have the duty on earthen ware and
glass ware reduced Is per cent below the
pending bill. Mcpherson said he would
be willing TO have il reduced 10 per cent.
Allison said that if the senator from New
Jersey would move the reduction, he
would be found in sympathy with it.
Plumb Apprshensive of Deficit
Plumb expressed the belief that there
might be a deficit OF fifty millions next
year. He thought that possibility had
been overlooked in framing the bill. He
gave notice that he would offer amend
msnts to the bill to increase the revenue
from other sources He would new. vote
for a bill that he thought would be a COW
srdly evasion of the duty imposed upon
the senate to provide adequate means to
meet the expenses of the government. He
would propose duty on incomes; he
holic liquors, and he would propose
amendments that would prevent the
formation of trusts.
An Estimate on the Reduction.
Aidrich expressed the opinion that Nc
Pherson was not serious in his motion and
remarked that, if it were carried out into
law the effect would be to increase the
revenue by $110 600, 600 over the amount
that would be produced by the pending
bill. In reply to question of German,
Aldrich said that if the importations for
the next fiscal year were the same amount
as for the last fiscal year, the revenue IN
der the pending bill would be reduced
about $50, 600 900. He could not give the
figures as to expenditures.

Adverse Comment on Archbishop Ire
lands Address at st. Paul.
MADISON, Wis, July 26-The Rev. Jo-
seph Cook, of Boston, discussed compnl-
sorry education and state control of schools
at the Monona Lake assembly yesterday.
He said the only fault he had to find with
the Bennett law was that it was even too
mild in its requirements AZ can not con-
ceive how any intelligent American citi-
zen can oppose a law so manifestiy of
benefit to the country. There seems to be
no part of it which can possibly be dam
gerous to the rights Of any nationality.
Something He Can't Understand.
Il cannot see why the Lutherans antag-
oniZe 1t so persistently, unless, as has
been suggested, the teachers in their
parochial schools are unable TO teach En-
glIsh, and hence their labors for twelve
weeks in the year are liable TO be dis
pensed with. The state has the right to
where The parent does not fulfill his duty
by those dependent upon him the state
should compel him to do SO by law. The
measure may need some minor amend
| ment, just as buckle on a harness may
need tightening here and loosening there
| TO relieve a chafing, but the principles and
| requirements of the law, as l have said,
| are just and in the interest of America S
future
The Bible in the Schools.
He criticised severely the opposition to
| the common school. He said he did not
| arraign any enlightened Roman Catholic,
| but the policy of the Vatican and its at
| titude toward the common schools. He
| took 10 task those secularists who would
| discard the Bible from the public
| school, and in this connection crIti-
| cised the decision of the Supreme
Court in the Edgerton Bible
case. The speaker defended the Massa-
| chusetts ana Iowa school laws as the right
settlement OF the school question. The
/ laws forbid the expulsion of the Bible
| from the schools and at the same time
have conscience clause" permitting
parents to keep children at home until
| after the devotional exercises. He thought
the Roman Catholics would have more
reason to term schools without the Bible
goddess than school with the Bible
| "sectarian.'

That Lightnlng Counting Machine.

WASHINGTON CITY, July 26.-Ihe cleo
trical machine used ia counting the CEN
sus returns is not giving as satisfactory
results as was expected. 1t works rapidly
and wonderfully, and is a great labor
saver for the 1,700 clerks in the census
bureau. But it is a curious matter of ex-
pertinent that the same machine will
never count the same pile of returns with
the same result. Thursday, under chal-
lenge, thirteen tests were made, and the
only result at all accurate was a single
footing in one district, that was the same
as that reached by counting in the old
way by the clerks
