GOVERNMENT DEFEATED.
The Ant-Revolutlon Bill Killed by the
German Rcichstag.


London, May i2-AA dispatch to
the Times from Berlin says: When the
last paragraphs OF the anti-revolutlon
tul were read scarcely one Couserva-
tive remained true TO the government.
Thu ended inFloriously the long cam
paign In defense OF religion ami OF so
oial order. What Consequences are to
be expected from this defeat OF the
HaheRlQche ministry and who IL to
blame chiefly for the fasco are the
question: exclusively occupying the
public opinions OF Germany. II appears
improbnlc Rt the present moment that
n ministerial crisis OF great moment
Is likely to result, stlll less dlssolu-
tion. An appeal to the country woui I
at the hfst be hazardous. AZ the same
iime II must not be concealed that the
debates Of tho last few days have b,4n
characterized hy remarkable mistakes
on the part Of the government with the
exception OF the chancellor,

DEATH OF PROF. w. D. SHIPMAN.

The sad intelligence of the death of
PRoF. W. d. SHIPMAN. of Buchtel Col
lege, reached the public through the
associated press last week. The report
is that he committed suicide at the
home of his relatives at Triumph, Trum-
bull county, Ohio, on Tuesday, Dec. II.
while insane on account of personal
troubles. We are promised the facts in
the affecting case and withhold further
comment until they reach us.
Prof. Shipman was the son of Rev.C.
L. Shipman, one of our aged clergymen,
and for seventeen years was professor of
Greek at Buchtel College. He gradu-
ated at that institution in 1875. and was
we'll known throughout the country as
a prominent educator in his special de-
partment. He was man Of quiet and
amiable character. always self-poised and
self contained and almost the last man we
