Mrs. Murphy, the young, beauti-
full and accomplished wife of Mr. John
I. Murphy, editor of the Evening
Telegram, of this city, died last Satur-
day morning. Mr.. and Mrs. Murphy
were married in October, 1850, and
have lived in Superior since that time.
On the ID inst, a daughter was born
to make their home stll more bright
and joyous, but two or three days later
pneumonia set in and the end came a
week later. Mr.. Murphy, accomra.
MED by Mr.. S. L. Norvell, took the re
mains to the old home of the deceased
at North Adams, n. Y, for burial
We can only extend to Mr. Murphy
our heartfelt sympathy in his great be
reavcmcnt.
Mr., Matchette, the genial land
lord of the Tower hotel, has been a
very asprant candidate for mayorallty
/ honorS for the past three years, but
thus far, through some great oversight
on the part of the people, he has not
been called to that position. Just now
and for some time past Mr.. Matchette
has lost neither time nor opportunity
! to inform the people of his desires and
of their shortcomings or neglect. 1t
Is really too bad that this cold world
is SO full Of disappointments, but SO it
! is, brother, and it is hardly likely that
either you or us will ever get to be
, mayor.
Two more houses were consumed
by fire at the West End, Tuesday even.
/ ing. The Water company made an eff
fort to furnish little water and sue
ceed in getting up pretty pressure, but
the pipes could not stand such an unu
sual procedure and burst. The fire
then had its own way. The bursting
Of the pipes cut off other necessary
supplies, in consequence of which there
WIS lots Of kicking going on Wednes
day morning. The evidence against
the accused accumul,tcs rapidly. The
Water Co. must go.

While the G. y. r. procession was
! marching to the residence of the late
Capt. ROBBIE, Tuesday afternoon, to
participate in the funeral rites, they
encountered dog fight, the dogs get
ting mixed up with the procession,
| when in getting them out Of the way,
one Of the brutes snapped at PATROL
man VIM Tucker, of South Superior,
and caught his hand inh;cting quite
a severe wound. We hope it may no;
! prove serious.
| No franchise should be given by
the city to enrich the private individu-
| al without compensation. If our pres
emf street railway company does not
pay Il per cent. of It's earnings to the
city, 1t should do SO, and if it cannot
be made to do 50 by any other means,
having secured its franchise, then we
would favor giving second franchise
! to some corporation that VIII pay
/ something for what they get. This is
! simply business proposition and
should be strictly adhered to.
Their ship having safely arrived,
the Peak Sisters are now on American

their appearing in this city. They viii

We hope Alderman Smiths fit OF
economy may nave no serious effects
on his health. These sudden and radi-
cal changes are sometimes really quite
dangerous to the person whose system
is thus assaulted. But we fellows who
have been paying for paving part of
the Fifth street system want the JOB
completed.
