He Calls for Revenge.
Communicated
Murder most foul was committed In
the midst of q peaceful community.

The bleeding corpse of John ID.
Patton, who was foully murdered in
his own house, calls for stern retribu.
ton upon the bastard fiend.
In the name of his bereft wife; on
behalf of his little orphaned children;
in vim dication of outraged law and
order, I call upon the authorities of
the county and state; call upon his
friends and comrades; l call upon his
late employers, in whose service he
has spent number of the best
years of his life, to exert their utmost
in the capture and conviction of the
fugitive animal.
1t will be q lasting disgrace, a cry
ing shame on this city, if this bloody
deed is not avenged. Not q stone
should be left unturned in furthering
this object, and if the officers of the
law require il, consider it the duty
of every peace loving citizen; above
all do L consider it the solemn duty of
the friends and comrades of the late
John d. Patton, to assist them, by
every means at their disposal, to fer
ret out the criminal and avenge an
outraged community.

ONLY "ELLEN's HUSBAND THEN

ONLY ''ELLEN's HUSBAND" THEN
One of the best stories about Gen.
Sherman. says The Washington Critic,
IS one that was told by his father-in-law,
the famous Tom Ewing. of Ohio. Just
after the war. Mr. Ewing had met an
old neighbor and was discussing the
casualties of the great tragedy: "Well, "
said he. speaking of his own family,
"my boys got through all safe. Tom
and Ed are home They went all
through it, but didn't get hurt. Yes,
sir, they went through the whole thing .
And then, as if it were all an after
thought, IAN Ellen'S husband; he was
there, too. He went through too-iust
like The boys" This story was repeat
ed some ears ago at Loyal Legion
dinner by Gen. Reynolds. of Ohio, and,
as may be imagined, it was received
with uproarious applause.

Highland Park College, by far the finest and
best equipped normal college in the world,
which being first openedlfor students Sept. I'd,
1880, closed its second term Jan. 9th, 1891,
with over 50 students.
The territory adjacent to the College b
been laid of and graded nto broad and beau
tiful avenues; cement sidewalks, have been
built and many handsome residences erected.
The accessibility of the location by means OF
rapii transit and paved street to and from
the heart of the city, renders this locality very
popular.
Lets can be purchased on most reasonable
terms and homes built as cheaply as In any
city in the country.
The character Of the community could not
be excelled, consisting as it already does and
will of the most intelligent and cultivated pco
pie.
highland Park lies on high, rolling plateau,
giving perfect drainage, pure air, and Is entire
ly out of the reach OF all miasmatlc influences
The view from this high table land is pctur-
esque in the extreme.
Parties wishing to build in Highland Park
in order to educate their children at the Col
legc, can readily find occupants for any spare
rooms they may have, and thus derive a reve-
ne which will do much toward reducing liv-
ing expenses.
If you wish to make an investment you can
DO no better than TO purchase lots in this beau

marked advances in the near future.
