Won Both Debates.

Wisconsin university won two not
able victories last week in debates
with the Northwestern university OF
Evanston and the Minnesota uniyer-
sity of St. Paul. The debaters at st.
Paul were G. b. Edwards OF Lancas-
ter, Frank J Rowen, and G. j. Luby;
at Evanston, A. H. Schmidt, Henry
Lockney, aud f. A. Evans. The
question was the same in both places:
should a system OF municipal gov
eminent concentrating all executive
and administrative powers ia the
mayor be adopted in cities Of the
United States of over forty thousand. =
Wisconsin's men had the affirmative
and won by the logical and thorough
presentation of their cases. More
than usual local interest attaches to
to the St. Paul debate because one Of
our own BOYS, Mr.. G. b. Edwards,
was the leading contestant Of the
winning side

MlnerdlooInt Scorched.

A disastrous fire occurred at Miner
APPOINT Monday night Five large
buildings in the business part OF the
city burned down and others were
damaged. The city Of Mineralpoint
is wholly without fire protection hav-
ing neither waterworks nor fire com
panies. Tins one loss is enough to
put in a good system OF waterworks.
The fire started between one and
two o'clock in the basement Of Brewer
and Penhallegon's crockery store.
Thence the hre was carried to the
grocery and crockery store of j. Il.
Toay. The buildings next west
owned by Henry Francis, w. j.
Penhallegon, and Martin and Toay
were likewise consumed DR.. Vivi-
ans residence and the city hall we're
scorched but are still standing.
All Of the buildings burned down
were of stone with metal roofs The
only explanation OF the spread OF the
fire is that the city was without fire
protection.
The total loss is estimated at Sl0,-

by insurance.

"Stufted" The Wrong Dog.

dispatch from Washington to the
Times-Herald says that the dog killed
by policeman at Cleveland was not
..Owney, as stated in this paper last
week. However. HERALD readers have
y irst-class picture of the famous dog.
thanks TO the mistake. and will prob
ably be pleased to learn that the old
dog is still on earth. Following is the
evidence that he still lives:
WASHINGTON, April 'Owney,'
the dog traveller. is not dead at all. 1t
was reported that he was shot April
16 and long sketches of his eventful
life were published. Captain White,
superintendent of the railway mail
service, sent an official inquiry to the
division superintendent at Cleveland,
and received an answer with the fol-
lowing Endorsement by George W.
Pepper, Jr;
Respectfully forwarded to the general
superintendent railway mail service. Wash
ington, with the information that the dog
mentioned in this clipping was'not 'Owney
A policeman killed an everyday, ordinary
cur at the union station and reporter did
the rest. The last heard of Owney' was that
he had gone to Cincinnati to meet the new
, superintendent. from which point he was
routed to the Exposition at Nashville.
"Supt White also received to-day
letter from j. H. Melven, postal
clerk living in St. Louis, stating that
.Ownev' was alive and well, excepting
an attack of the mango. from which he
was conyaleseent. Mr.. Melven adds:
The old fellow has spent the last three
weeks with me, havir~ struck me on his re-
turn from the specia4 ks convention at
San Francisco. He ha cry severe attack
of mango and detaine, min der to cure
him which l have done, and yrs about to
start him out again when the false report of
his death started. have concluded to hold
him until am able to get the boys to under
stand the matter, and as the old fellow has
been quite ugly in the way of trying to bite
the trainmen and people who hand letters in
at the car doors, have thought it might be
well for him to retire. If you think he
should, believe 1 will agree to give him
good home and see that his remains are pre-
served when he dies. would also hold his
collar and the badges on it.
I'm reply to this letter, Superin-
tendent White said that he thought it
WAS time for 'Owney' to cease his
travels, and would be pleased if some
one would give him home for the re-
mainder of his days. So, while this
famous traveller is not dead, his wan
behring's up and down the earth in a
postal car are probably at an end for
ever.

Desperate Duelists.

The days of dueling are not over
There are at least two men living who
are willing to face danger in front of
pistol for '.honor's'' sake. One OF
them is Col Busk, southern gentle
man, sab, a fighter, sab, genuine F.
, F. v, by CAD, sab. The other is w.
l.. King, an insurance solicitor, whose
home is the glorious north, the land
Of valiant men. Mr.. King honored
Lancaster with a brief sojourn last
fall and insinuated himself into tie
affectionate regard of some of our cit
liens in manner not easily forgotten.
He is as tall and commanding in APP
pearance as the nodding sunfower
and tips his hat with the sweeping
grace of the weeping willow. In re-
pose he is peaceful and gives no sign
of soul that RACES for blood when
its passion is aroused.
The place was Chicago; the time, 5
O'Clock p. m. Nav 2; the weapons,
pistols; distance, Is PAGES; bullets,
chewing gum, sticks for a nickel;
number OF shots. 5;casualties, nobody
hurt.
The remote cause of all this trouble
was an argument as to Gen. McClel-
lan's greatness as a general. The i'm

hot from the mouth Of the choleric
Virgirian, That's lie, sahr'
Both men acted with great courage.
The Times Herald says, sMr. King
acted as though he was going to cut
rattlesnake striped watermelon. He
wore swell spring overcoat, a pair
of kid gloves incased his hands, his
patent feathers shone even in the wet
There was a cigarette between his
lips and look of strength in his face.
Colonel Busk was not 80 verv nerv-
sus hisself. by gum as Mr.. Kelly
who once lived in Virginia, expressed
it.n
The agreement was to shoot until
one should fall or cry enough" The
signal was given, pistols were emptied
with becoming rapidity. The men
still stood; neither WINGED. Their adj
miration for each others bravery ban
Sished all feeling Of hatred, outraged
honor was satisfied, they kissed and
made up and the great duel had passed
into history.

Watton's Babies.

1t is with pleasure we present to our
readers the happy baby group on this
page. We only regret that each
sweet little face cannot be made to
stand out as clear, distinct and bright
as most do. But the many troubles
in photographing SO many little tots,
the natural, variations in printing
from negatives, the difficulty Of group
ing blue eyes, black eyes, and brown
eyes, dark hair, white hair and no
hair so that each will be as clear as
another, and the limits in the art CT
making newspaper cuts all must be
considered. Many Of the best looking
babies show up the poorest.
The picture includes all the pictures
of babies Mr.. Walton has taken dur
ing the past. year, We regret that
we cannot give the names of all the
babies or their mothers but the pAo-
tographer is unable to supply a COM
plete list.
1t is not likely that every baby here
will be president or the governors
wife but many will no doubt fill high
places in the world There NAV be
president among them.

Suicide.

Walter Boyd, farmer living in
Ellenboro about five miles west Of
Lancaster; took his own life Thursday
morning of last week. He left the
house about 10 o'clock and told his
wife he was going to the field where a
son was at work. AT noon they found
his lifeless body hanging from rafter
in the hayshed. One foot was still
touching the cutter in which he stood
while fastening the rope.
His father committed suicide in a
similar manner on the same farm
about rs years ago. Walter Boyd
was a man well respected in his
neighborhood. For several months
he has shown signs of insanity at
times and no doubt it was a fit OF
mental arrangement that prompted
the suicide.
Funeral services were held in Ce-
ment school house on Saturday, cor

made in the Lancaster cemetery.

DESTROYS Of hearing the distinguished
divine and witnessing the services Of
the church. Bishop Nicholson finds
much to commend and many reasons
for thankfuIness in the work done
and blessings received by the church
during the past year. The beautiful
memorial altar cross and the organi-
cation of the splendid surpliced choir
were especially gratifying to the bish-
op as evidence of successful Christian
endeavor.
The sermon proper was a scholarly
and eloquent appeal for earnest and

Sudden Death.

Heart failure was the cause OF the
sudden death Of Jacob Wies. Friday
morning of last week. Mr.. Weis was
a single man without relatives in this
country and was working as farm
hand for George Haynes. two miles
south Of Lancaster. Friday morning
he arose about O'Clock to build fires
as was his custom, He had been in
the kitchen only short time when
MIR Haynes, who was awake, heard
sound like the fall Of heavy BODY.
Going out he found Weis living on the
door unconscious. Haynes called his
neighbor, Chas. Case. and Jgether
they picked the body up and laid it
on support in the next room. The
man must have died almost Instantly.
In order to forstall any suspicion
that might arise the authorities were
notified and a coroner's jury empanel-
ed Squire Baldwin and Under-sheriff
McGonigal had the business in charge.
The jurors were Frank Sehreiner,
Henry Henkel, Robt. Draper. Z. L.
Howe, Leo. Philipson and Geo. Govier.
DR.. Cronin was subpoenaed as a med
ieal expert.
After viewing the body aud listen-
ing to evidence the jury brought in
verdict in accordance with the above
mentioned facts. From DR.. Cronin
it was learned that the deceased had
bad heart and had been taking medi-
cal treatment for it for several weeks.
Jacob Weis was born in Germany
thirty-three years ago. He had tray
I.eled extensively and had lived for
three or four years in Brazil before
coming to the United States
John Meisenberg had known him
from his boyhood and was probably
his warmest friend in America. He
was q member of the Roman Catholic
church and was buried in the ceme-
terry west of the city Everyone
speaks well of Jacob Weis, OF his in
dustry, honesty and good nature.

THE HISTORICAL FESTIVAL.

A colonial wedding with all the pomI
and splendor of the Revolutionary days
properly costumed, will be one of the at
tractiye events Of the contemplated His
to1ical Festival soon to be held in this
city. Efforts are being made to have the
Daughters of the Revolution and the
descendants of Portland's old families
assume the characterization of this spec
ial feature. Already the loan OF many
historical articles has been proHer5d,
among them being the old-tlme Jenny
and spinning wheel, and rare and costly
family Portraits and decorations, while
the music rendered will be by old time
musicians on ''yo Lutte, harpsichord and
other instruments of ye ancient times. .
Letters from many old families in vari-
ous sections Of the state have been re-
ceived and it begins to look as though
Portland is to produce in this festival
an event that will interest both city and
S. ate.
