Another deplorable drowning occurred Thurs
day afternoon, the victim being Judson, the 10
year old son of Greenleaf Dore of South Third st.
The little fellow accompanied several other boys
to the shore of the St. Croix just below the At
wood mill, and while they went in swimming he
amused himself by playing on the bank. running
back and forth on plank from the shore to a
boom log. Alas, he lost his balance and fell in
to the water and drowned before assistance could
reach him. One of the other boys gave the alarm
and several men fastened to the spot, but for
hours they searched before the body could be
recovered. The water at that place was about
| fourteen feet deep. Judson was bright and
manly little fellow. an only son. and his untmeiy
end is indeed a severe blow to his bereaved
family. Mr.. Dore was for several years guard
at the prison.

Mr.. Stumm is foreman of Merriam's con-

across the street on an errand, he was
caught out in the rain. The result was
that when he was ready to go home that
night he was unable to walk, owing to
lItl@mmatOry rheumatism. He was
taken home, and on arrival was
placed in front of a good fire and thor
oughly rubbed with Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. During the evening and night he
was repeatedly bathed with this l,nlment
and by morning was relieved of all rheu-
matte pains. He now takes especial
pleasure in praising this Remedy, and
always keeps a bottle of it in the house.

Walter Quintin Gresham, secretary of
state. died in Washington early Tuesday
morning from pleurisy. Secretary
Gresham was not great man, as men
are rated these days, but he was what Is
better and more rare: far, just and
conservative man, absolutely incorrupt-
ible in all OF the great positions Of trust
to which the people called him. As
secretary of state in the present admin
istralion Mr.. Gresham had to deal with,
perhaps, more veXations, intricate, and
delicate diplomatic affairs than had fall
len to the lot of most secretaries of state.
His treatment of these was marked by
the strong individuality which was part
Of the man. Perhaps from his long ju-
dicial experience he was disposed to
view every question from the standpoint
Of exact and equal juctice. To him it
made little difference how any line OF
action promised to effect his country; he
could aud did disabuse his mind of any
personal feeling in dealing with an in.
ternati0nal question, aud the first con-
sideration with him was always absolute
fairness; if his own country occupied a
false position in the mater he thought II
was his duty to set it right, even at a
sacrifice of material interests, as il
might appear at the time.
