self that if anything were said about me
it should be said by Judge Wilkin, as
thought he knew me best, and was too
honest to utter an untruth. even in
adulation of friend. But Providence
had decided otherwise. and reversed the
conditions. As thought he knew ma
best, l think | knew him best. For
nearly forty ysars we have been to each
other as close as brothers, and for the
greater part of one year were never out
of the sight OF each other.
He was lovable man. He carried
his heart on his sleeve. He had nothing
to conceal, and he concealed nothing.
He was gentleman in its broadest sig
nification: cultured in mind, pure in
heart, sincere and considerate in all his
dealings. Pleasing in manner, brave as
lion and gentle as a woman, and, as
consequence. beloved by everybody in
all his relations in life.

BeacOnstield once put into the mouths
of some of his characters these words:
"All wise men are of the same relig-
ion." "And what religion is that?"
"Nise men never tell" The idea the
author intended to convey by this col
loauy is that wise men never wish to
intrude their own religious views on
others, and by reason of superior
wisdom unSettle belief which, be
it sound or unsound. may be the
foundation of godly lives. So it was
with Judge Wilkin. Whatever may
have been his belief, he was never in
clined to assert it, except through his
every day life. His works compose his
eulogy. Nothing 1 could say to this
community could enhance his standing
and popularity. He has been for many
years Judge Wilkin-beloved of all
and for many years will remain Judge
Wilkin in the affectlonate remembrance
of all. No more can be said.
When look upon that casket which

not, express regret that he has gone.
He lived the limit of three score and

The petition maintains that the
depot removal was without warrant

specifically set up the proper loca-
ton of its depot premises. and that
the road has no authority to make

discharge its passengers there, as
originally agreed upon.

having in their possession
counterfeit dies, was called

case. William McEnirv appears for

The Testimony.
The testimony was begun this
morning, when the state called NJ.
III. Sexton. who testified that prior to
the arrest of the defendants there
had been q number of complaints
about counterfeit money in Milan
and vicinity. which ceased after the
arrests and that the pieces of a mould
produced by him, were given to him
by Marshal Reynolds, of Milan. That
the counterfeit dollar and quarters
exhibited in court were given to him
by various parties in Milan, Daven-
port and Rock Island. as having been
passed on them by unknown parties.
Joseph Fitzpatrick testified that he.
in company with Chief Reynolds, of
Milan, found in the clubhouse on the
Burke premises the plaster OF paris
fragments of silver dollar mould.
Emma Moore stated that in July
last, while at Burke's house, Mrs.
Burke had shown her a plaster of paris
mould, and also a counterfeit dollar;
and that she told the witness if she
would never show it, she would give
her (witness) one of the counterfeit
dollars. Upon cross-examination,
MIR. McEniry tried to make the wit
ness admit that the evening before
she saw this mould in Mrs. Burke's
possession, one Murphy, who
was witness admirer, had handed
Mrs. Burke closed package, telling
Mrs. Burke to keep it for him. Wit
ness denied any such occurrence, but
admitted that Murphy left Milan i'm
mediately after the arrest OF the
Burkes. and had not returned since,
and was now in Alaska.

Mrs. Bradley in opening, that whisky and
missionaries go to tho heather on the same
ship. AS whisky is sent by a Christian
country, it is only consistent that mission
aries should accompany the shipment.
Mrs. Bradley said that it was against the
tenets of the faith of the Hindoos, Brahmins,
and Mahommedans TO indulge in strong
have joined in the earnest effort to secure
total abstinence among all classes
Miss Kearney drew forth frequent patters
of applause while speaking on the subject
"Nhat young women have done for temper
ance.' She spoke of the marvellous advance
ment of women. ''The American public can
point to their women" she said, ''as an ex-
ample of the higher level their civilization
has reached, and young women are es pecialIv
prominent. If all the women were ranged
against the saloons we could capture every
stronghold by the resistless tide of our
strength"
She advised young women not to marry an
lntemperate man with the hope OF reforming
him. Her speech was eloquent and well
rounded.
