tits now generally believed that the
$4,000 of which the express company
was robbed in Northern Michigan few
weeks ago has been recovered with
the exception of a few dollars. The rob-
bers who robbed those who robbed the
train: secu Led their liberty for the re-
turn of the money. The express CON-
panies are averse to having the fact
known that they compromise and hence
wanted to keep the deal secret.
Mobile, Alabama, suffered from pecu-
liar form of disaster on Monday last. A
heavy wind from the gulf drove the wa
ter up the river until in the city it rose
to 10 feet above the average hight. The
wholesale section Of the city was four
feet under water and the streets were
nsvigated by boats. Boats were driven
on to the wharves and three dredges
working in the channel were lost. One
of them turned over throwing three men
into the water; two were rescued but the
by the gale and church towers tottered.
Telegraph communication was cut off
and the city was IN darkness owing to
the electrical works being inundated.
An attempt at a most cold blooded
murder at Cudahy, Milwaukee was re,
vealed last week by the arrest of the
| guilty parties at San Francisco. A man
named johnson with his wife came tc
| Cudahy last April and started boarding
house. A man named Westrick was hlr.
ed as a sort of general servant. He and
| Mrs. johnson became lovers. And one
night while Johnson was asleep he was
aroused by experiencing sharp pain II
his throat. He awoke and saw a mar
hastily quitting the room. His wife was
dressed and in the room at the time anC
she told her husband that the man who
stabbed him was a burglar. The wound
grew serious and johnson was forced t
60 to the hospital. While there his wife
! and Westrlck sold off all the furnitur,
and eloped. Johnson is now lying at thu
point of death. There is not much doub
that the man who stabbed him while b,
slept was Westrick and that his wife wal
his confederate. Later they tried tt
poison him, but he was unable to swal
low the arsenic which they called medi
cine, on account of the wound in his
throat.

The storm on the lake Saturday last
was q magnificent one to those who could
witness it from safe position. Though
the storm was not at all comparable to
that of last spring in force or destructive
ness, the wind was such that the waves
were higher as they struck the harbor
piers. The flow of water over the south
pier was almost continuous, and the arch
of water with its crest whipped into foam
by the angry winds was indeed beautiful,
as 1t leaped the obstruction with massive
might. Looking from the upper walk Of
the north pier it seemed as If wall of
water was piled upon the shore, built
there by the inward sweep of the water.
The backwater from the solid approaches
of Eighth street bridge checks the on
ward movements Of the waves, but as
they press on this cushion little dis.
tance inside the harbor pier, the result
ant force makes them break and rise
into billowy pyramids. So fercely did
the waves beat on the end of the north
pier that the framework supporting the
bell was crushed and 1t and the bell
swept into the lake. The bell was driven
ashore.

The pea supply this year is an un-

from 50 to 80 cents per bushel, quite
lively in the past week.
The late rains have been blessing to
the farmers. Considerable blowing is
now being done notwithstanding that at
first it was deemed an utter impossible
ity this year. Quite an acreage of rye
and winter wheat have been sowu here
this fall.
Corn is being cut and harvested here.
More corn was planted this year than for
any year heretofore. Farmers realize that
dalrying interests REQUIRE that fodder
corn be raised SO as to furnish a neces-
sary quality of food for stock. In soma
instances corn yields about three times
the quantity per acre OF any cereal raised
theron.

THE movement to unite the silver and
protected interests SO as to defeat the re-
peal of the Sherman law and prevent 8
modification of the tariff is now attribut-
ed to Senator Cameron OF Pennsylvania.
The silver men, those who are looking for
personal gain from the enforced purchase
OF silver by the government, have manag-
ed to enlist the sympathy and support of
the people in such states as Kansas and
Nebraska through sectional affinity and
a desire for cheap money. These states
which have no direct interest in silver
appear as it's champions. The same
thing is true with reference to the sup
port received by protected industries
which want protection continued if it re-
bounds to their individual benefit regard
less of its consequence to the country at
large. They likewise have their blind
followers. Nothing is more natural than
that these interests animated by the com
mon purpose of securing benefits at the
cost of the public should work in har-
| mony. Cameron is personally interested
in silver. The state he represents de-
mands tariff which is practically pro.
hibitory. Cameron appreciates the stu
| alton and is acting with perfect consist
ency. If the protected interests of his
state demand a continuance Of the sub
sidy they receive from the people the in.
dustries of the western states are like.
wise justified in demanding a continu
ance of the protection secured them
through the Sherman law.
Cameron will not be followed in his
new departure by any considerable mum
Der of his colleagues, but for all that his
action shows that he appreciates the logic
| of the situation.
