benedict is in intimate social relations with MI
Cleveland but II Is hardly suppose BILE that he -
the mouthpece Of President Cleve.and's political
views And this matter Of the Presidency. or OF
the Democratic nomination for the Presidency. Is
distinctly a political matter and entirely separate
from personai considerations.
The talk about a third term IS merely words.
II will very likely be found that some other candi-
date than Mr. Cleveland will best al the bill But
the ''third-term' cry will not be an Influence In
reaching this decision.

learned soon after his first visit here,
that at Bellevue he laid great stress on
the name DeLeon, claiming he was a
lineal descent Of the renowned discov-
erer, Jaun Pontse DeLeon, OF Spain.
His personal appearance would give
considerable color TO his story. being
about % feet tall, thick set, dark com
pleXion, black eyes, with black hair,
mustrche and goatee sprinkled with
gray. The fore finger of his right
hand is missing. He is fairly well
dressed and wears a silk hat.
Tuesday, O.. w. Francis editor OF
the Lake Odessa Wave, was caller at
this office, and incidentally mentioned
being beaten out of SO. 10 for advertis-
ing by this same individual. He also
informed as that the doctor stood of"
the landlord for his board bill until
the company comes along pretend
ing that he was the advance man OF
medicine aggregation, but if he wanted
his money before, he could send the
bill to the ''old man" at Grand Rapids
and check for the amount would be
forthcoming. This was three weeks
ago; the hotel bill was sent to the adj
dress given at Grand Rapids, but no
response has been received. Editor
Francis informed us that in the little
discussion" he had with Musgrove,
the reverend doctor swore like pirate
and threatened to whip him but he
didn't pay up, which worries the Wave
man most
The doctor settled his little bill OF
S3 30 with Landlord Capwell in the
same way he stood off the hotel men at
Lake Odessa and Mulliken, by giving
him an order on the company. He
also contracted with Capwell for board
ing six men and two horses at so much
a week, so it would seem the reverend
doctor is the advance man of quite an
extensive band of fakirs. This "steal
ing the livery of heaven to serve the
devil inn is contemplate, and if he is
as great a medical fraud as he is a
clerical imposter, the sooner his true
character is known to the public the
better for decent society. Mugrove is
member of the Knights of Pythias,
but he has disgraced the grand princi-
pies of that noble order. Pass him
along.

A REVEREND FRAUD.
Peculiar Franks and Practices Of Comb
nation Ouack.


From Grand Ledge Independent
OF two evils that society is afflicted
with-the quack doctor and the quack
preacher, we believe the latter Is the
greater; but when the two are COM
bined, as they are in one j. r. Mus
grove, or G. l.. DeLeon, whichever IS
his name, it is time the public was
warned by being posted on the combs
nation. Easter Sunday man OF APP
parent Spanish descent, giving the
name OF j. +. Musgrove, occupied the
pulpit of the Baptist church as candl-
date. He delivered very good sermon
IN the morning and at a concert IN the
evening talked entertaining to the
children about Palestine, which he
claimed to have personally visited.
Being unable to produce satisfactory
credentials or record, his candidacy
was not seriously considered. Subse-
quently ii was learned that man Civ
| ing the name of DR.. =. l.. DeLeon, a
description of whom tailed exactly
with that of Musgroye. had preached
in the Baptist church at Bellevue the
Sunday before. Being convinced that
the two were one and the same we
cross-eXamined the reverend doctor on
these points. At first he denied ever
having been in Bellevue, either as a
doctor or preacher. Being confronted
with positive proof that he was lying
like sinner, he admitted that he was
the identical party, but threw the re-
sponsibility for his thus travelling under
two names upon Will Holt, of the
Bellevue Gazette, who, he said, intro
duced him us DeLeon. He ran an adv.
Il, Hn1ffa panar In, tho mama Of .slpG
G. l.. DeLeon and G.. w. Musgrove,
M. D." Cincinnati specialists, and
claimed to us that he was making a
few dates for this firm until he could
locate pastorate. He asked us to
believe that his indiscretion and negli-
gence in not giving his right name
when introduced by Editor Holt as
DeLeon was the cause of his being
placed in such an embarrassing
position, but as he had just before de-
clared he had preached in Nashville
the Sunday before, the day we had
proven and he had confessed he
preached in Bellevue as DeLeon, we
declined to do so, believing him to be a
chronic liar and a fraud from the
ground mp, Just as his cOuntenance in
dictates. When our interview closed,
he was warned to not disgrace another
pulpi with his presence, but he had
the cheek to do so last Sunday evening,
in this city, wnen he was invited into
the Baptist pulpit and offered prayer
and pronounced the benediction.
When he was here in April he profess
ed to be a widower, his wife having
died last year Last Friday p M,
Saturday, Sunday and Monday he
stopped at the Middleton House with
his wife, and displayed cards advertis-
ing to heal the sick and afflicted. We

Thursday in memory of friends gone

us many sad memories of boys dying
in the army and starved in southern
prisons; Over the grave OF Edward
Sage is placed small glass covered
box containing this inscription encir-
cled by a wreath of flowers:
oh. mamal How we miss him,
Our own sweet papa DEAR
We want his arms around us,
And his voice our hearts TO cheer.
