THE FOURTH CELEBRATED.
A Great Day for Young and Old
Peace and Quiet the Order of
the Day.

In local observance of the great
est of national holidays. the 4th Of
July, Texarkana fairly outdid her
self yesterday. The day was one Of
feast and pleasure, every man en-
joying himself after the manner
dearest to his own heart. The
women and children were also Joy
Gus participants in the days pleas
ures.
From early morn to close of day
the celebrating was unceasing, anC
some pleasurable project or Other
continually on foot, The largest
assemblage of the day was that al
Pleasant Lake, under auspices o.
the Uniform Rank, X, of P, which
attracted three full train loads o.
people, from this city, many coming
from surrounding towns
Another large crowd was that a
Ships Springs, on Days Greek
composed principally of farmer.
from the adjoining townships. Al
each and all of these gatherings
there was an utter absence of bois
ferrous, unseemly, or improper con
duct, on the part of the partici
pants, in the days pleasure. A
every gathering peace, quiet ano
good conduct were the order of the
day.
Indeed Texarkana is to be con
graduated upon the quiet, orderl!
and peaceable disposition displayed
by her citizens, on an occasion
where, as a rule full license is givel
to noisy conduct and boisterou:
demonstration, in which the pas
sions usual gain full sway No il
lustration could better mark the
progress of moral reform, in thi:
community, during the past few
years, than that given above.
Yesterdays observance of the ma
tons great day, without a single
unseemly incident, is, within itself
credit to the city and compliment
to her people, as peace loving ano
order preserving community. IL
addition to the more prominent
amusements, already mentioned
were many minor ones, of a private
character, in which friends anc
families joined for days recrea

uses ice, as well as every home, is
threatened with total deprivation

no advance in price to the consumer
nor will there be; it is simply a ques-
ton of getting the ice at all to de-

here over 40 years; been through
fire, storms, failures and panics,
but never experienced such a time
as this, affecting every man, woman
and child in the city, sick in hospit-

as regards vegetables, fruits and
other perishable provisions is not so
serious though if the tie-up contin-

ness of all kinds is active, and the
people who take advantage of their
opportunities are prosperous.
The reason why the Mexican bust
ness man is ready to give two of his
dollars for one of our gold dollar
tokens, is because he makes a
premium on the transaction by tax
ing advantage of the terrible de-
probation in the price Of our com

make large profit, so appalling is

Two men by the name of Billler-

town, got into difficulty with P.

man of this city, over a statement
yesterday. The two men rushed
onto Foley, who shot George Biller-

through the abdomen, which will
doubtless cause death in few

Shot Himself While Insane.

dispatch from Tomah, which says
that Peter Scholler, proprietor of the
leading jewelry and music store there,
was found In the woods yesterday
afternoon at o'clock with a bullet
wound in the head He had been
absent from home since O'Clock in
the morning. Physicians say he at
tempted suicide while suffering from
temporary arrangement of the mind
and that there is small chance of his
recovery. This is startling news to
people in Watertown, where Mr.
Scholler is we'll known as a former
resident and an employe of J. Salick &
Son. The unfortunate occurrence that
has overtaken him is one to be sin

DISTRICT ATTORNEY RYDER.

Editor Republcan:-Without caring
to discuss the general qualifications of
our present district attorney, with
which the people ought by this time
to be quite familiar, [ wish to call at
tention to one particular item in which
taxpayers have very direct interest.
I refer to his failure or refusal to take
proper measures to collect from pa
tients, who are able to pay, their dues
to the county for monies advanced by
it to the state for their care and main
tenence in the hospitals for the iE-
sane. There is now due the county
and collectable from this source over
SIS, 900; and that this sum has not found
its way into the treasury is the fault of
Mr.. Ryder, who has failed to do his
duty, as his predecessors had done be-
fore him. | have at hand list of the
delinquents, but will cite only one
case, which is given solely on account
of is prominence and the well known
ability of the party mentioned to meet
the laws demands. / refer to DR.. James
Cody, of this city. There certainly is
no reason why he should be cared for
in the Northern hospital at the ex-
pense of Jefferson county, but he is,
simply because the district attorney has
not seen fit to enforce as he should
the collection of what is due, amount
ing now to some hundreds of dollars.
This is unjust to the taxpayers whose
servant Mr.. Ryder is, and they should
call him to account. A change in the
office of district attorney might per-
haps prove advantageous to them. 1t
certainly would work them no harm.
[ will add that this is no campaign
story told for political effect and that
the facts can be verified upon inquiry
of any member of the county board Of
supervisors the last two years. If
what is stated is untrue, Mr. Ryder
should enter denial and send to THE
REPUBLICAN, which hope will give him
the full benefit of its publication.

Committed Suicide.

Norbert Hoffman, committed suicide
Monday morning by hanging himself
at his home on West Main street.
About 10 O'Clock he was discovered in
his room suspended from the ceiling
by small hemp rope,. the deed
apparently having been done but a
short time before that hour In accor-
dance with the circumstances, a cor
oner's jury impaneled by Justice Stacy
rendered a verdict that the deceased
came to his death by his own hands.
Mr.. Hoffman, was a well-known
citizen and had resided here since
1864, during which time be had been
engaged in the carpet-weaving in
dustry. He was born in Gabel, Aus
tria, sixty-s,v years ago, emigrating
to New York in 1852. Later be lived
in Milwaukee and also on farm in the
southern part of this county. A wife
and two sons--Henry j., foreman in
this office. and William, of Edgerton-
survive him. Mr.. Hoffman, was a
prominent German Odd Fellow, and
was a member of both Washington
lodge, No. II. and Allemania encamp-
ment, No. So. In these societies, as
we'll as throughout the city, he bad
many friends who greatly regse the
sad ending of his life. The funeral was
held this afternoon from his late home
under the auspices of the Odd Fellows.
