GOVERNOR ALTGELD of Illinois has
pardoned from the penitentiary Sam
uel Fielden, Oscar Neebe and Michael
Schwab, the anarchists who were sent
to prison for participating in the
Haymarket riot in Chicago in 1896.
1t seems to us that this is Il serious
abuse of the pardoning power. The
dedication of monument only last
Sunday to the anarchists who were
hanged for that great crime in Chi
cago shows that the spirit of anarchy
is not dead. The pardon of those
wretches comes as a direct encourage
ment TO these enemies of society, all of
whom are foreigners by birth and by
nature and foes TO our institutions.
No quarter should be shown anareh-
lists. When the law once gets grip
upon them the very life should be
squeezed out OF them.

Absolam Iser. middle-aged mar
ried man. who lives five miles from
Romnev. this State, was shot by his
brother in-law. Daniel Shawen, last
Friday. near his home. iser had Il
reputation Of being IL peaceable man.
His brother-in- law. who lived near
him, has not such a good reputation.
The two men were in town Friday,
and while in conversation about pur-
chasing a horse, which Iser thought
they needed in hauling bark, began
to quarrel. Shawen started home
with his team first. in haste, and came
back to McDoweIl's Run, "a distance
OF two miles, bringing his shotgun
with him, where he waited for lser.
Ina short time ISer made his APP
pearance, having his wife and a Mr..
Timbrook with him Shawen at
tackled him, saying: "lou nave been
medding with my business long
enough, and at the same time he shot
Iser in the shoulder and the back part
Of the head with large shot, which re
suited in his death in Il few minutes.
Iser's wife was getting out OF the wag-
on to prevent Shawen from shooting
her husband, but before she reached
the ground the fatal work was done.
Timbrook took one of the horses from
the wagon, and started back TO town
for doctor. but found on reaching
the BODY that it was too late TO DO
any good. In the meantime, Snaw'n
started for the mountains, leaving
his gun by his victim side. Next day
he surrendered himself TO the sheriff.

THE Sunday opening of the Worlds
Fair is not proving to be the success
that its advocates anticipated. The
attendance last Sunday was far be-
low the average of week days-an
emphatic reminder that the people
generally are opposed to this desecra-
ton of the Sabbath. The manage
ment of the fair will probably reduce
the price one-half on Sundays in order
to draw larger crowds.

4 CASE has been discovered in the
pension Office where a man was
awarded pension by Commissioner
Raum on account of badness. His
pension was granted in October, 1891,
and he got back pay from 1894. This
is worse than that case where vet
eran was pensioned because of corn
on his little toe.

A Good SUGGESTION.

From the Dubuque lIora) Telegraph.
The adiOurniuS of the Impeachment
court last Saturday, on account or
Gen. Weaver's belly ache, cost the
people of this commonwealth nearly
$500. One dose of Chemberlain's Col
ic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
would have saved this expense; and
we suggest, as a matter of economy
and humanity, that the State provide
against future contingencies Of this
nature, by furnishing each senator
with bottle of that valuable remedy.

A Husbands Revenge.

For some time past DR.. John Hood,
of Alden, Tenn, has suspected that
improper relations existed between
his wife and VIM. Piper. Monday
night DIR. Hood left home, ostensibly
on visit to patient but, instead,
hid in an outbuilding near the house.
In less than an hour Piper entered
the house. DR.. Hood forced his way
to his wife's bedroom and found his
wife and Piper there. The doctor at
tempted to shoot Piper, but the pts
tol snapped. Snatching a coal-oil
lamp burning on table near by, the
wronged husband dashed the missile
at Piper's head, the glass horribly
cutting his face. The lamp exploded,
the oil running in streams of fire over
Piper's body, burning his right ear
off, destroying the sight of both eyes,
literally cooking his breast and shout
ders and burning his hair and beard.
He died in less than an hour. The
unfaithful wife threw herself upon
the body Of the mass Of charred flesh
and cried for death to take her with
her lover. All the parties are promi-
nent people of that State.
