A FRENCH CANADIAN EXODUS.
Miii Operatives Scared Away from
New England Villages by
War Talk.

There has been a large exodus of
French-Canadian families from the mill
villages of New England since the war
talk began. 1t may not be the fear of
war alone which have impelled those
who have gone to pack up and scurry
across the Canadian border, but the war
has undoubtedly had very much influ-
ence in the matter. The operatives have
been somewhat dissatisfied since wages
were cut in the cotton mills, and the
coming of the war added to their belief
that this Yankeeland was not the abode
of milk and honey they had formerly
thought it, says the New York Sun.
From all over the state and the vii
lagos in Connecticut and Massachusetts
come reports of the French Canadian
exodus. From Woonsocket alone 21
persons have left this week, and dozens
of families had fled before. The Paw
tucket valley villages tell the same
story, and what is true of this section
is also true of other New England vii
lages.
1t must not be supposed that all
the French Canadians in New England
partake of this spirit. While these mill
operatives are by no means warlike
people ethere are many among the young
er element who would be glad to fight
for the United States if they were
needed
Many of those who remain are very
much troubled regarding the future,
and mill men say that they are being
constantly asked regarding the proba-
bility of aliens being drafted.

"You Can't Fool a Rat I"

There is an old saying to the effect
that you can't fool rat, but rat that
inhabits place on Putnam street was
very much deceived by gnawing into a
large imitation OF a ham, used for sign
purposes. The "ham" was nothing
more nor less than big painted bag,
lined with sawdust, and too-friendly
rat thought to get at the toothsome in
side, so he burrowed his way in, only
to find that it was filed, like doll,
with sawdnst. OF course the rodent
was disgusted.

MARIETTA DAILY LEADER
TUESDAY, may az, 1898
FOUND AT GAINESVILLE.
Ethel hight and Clyde Russell, the Youth.
full Runnways.

Ethel hight and Clyde Russell, the Youth
full Runaways
Several days ago the Leader noted
the elopment of Ethel Hight, TIE II
year-old daughter of William Hight, of
this city, and Clyde Russell, q young
news butcher on the q. & o. R. At
that time Mr.. Hight was searching for
his erring daughter, and the following
from the GAINESVILLE Times Recorder of
Monday indicates that he found her:
A young man with ''muchly" dis
colored and swollen optic and pre-
possessing young girl of about seven
teen summers arrived ia town Satur-
day morning, and not a great while
thereafter were arrested and locked up
in accordance with advices received
from Marshal Dye, of Marietta.
The couple were Clyde Russell, u
news butcher on the q. & o. R.. and
Ethel Hight, daughter of w. B. Hight,
Marietta blacksmith. They were
eloping, not necessarily to get married,
but to get away from the girls irate
father, who had no use for Russell
whom he had struck in the eye for call
ing on his daughter.
Clyde says he loves Ethel and that
Ethel loyes him. Ethel has not said
so, but actions in this case speak louder
than words. They left Marietta on
Tuesday night and drove to Caldwell,
and from there they walked to this
city, arriving as stated.
Father Hight was not asleep, but
was hot on their trail. When he
reached Caldwell he found that they
had left for GAINESVILLE, and he tele-
graphed Chief Beckley to arrest them,
signing Marshal Dyes name, having
his permission to do so.
Saturday night the elopers were
brought before Mayor Gibson. He al
lowed Russell TO GO and then turned
Ethel over to her father after giving
her sound lecture on the proper way
young girl should conduct herself.
All during this trying admonition the
girl never moved nor shed tear, al
though a reference was made to her
KIDD father and mother on whom she
was bringing disgrace. She left the
prison with her arm around her faith.
er's neck, crying and asking his for.
giveness.
The stern parent took the girl to the
Hotel Rogge and Sunday morning be
took her to Columbus, where he in
| intends placing her in convent.
The girl says that she did not know
whether Russell was gong to marry
her or not and did not know by hel
actions she was placing herself in {
compromising position.

saloons and Restaurants.

1t is likely that the Mayor will order
the closing of number of Sunday and
all night restaurants in addition to that
of Mr.. Frank on practically the same
ground. that though separated from
saloons by thin board partitions they
are nevertheless. properly speaking, in
the same rooms and contrary to law.
1t is alleged that it has been the prac-
tice in many places to serve liquors at
tables in the Sunday restaurants and
it is this practice especially which the
Mayor desires to stop.

CAPT EIFLER BURNED
BADLY INJURED WHILE FIGHTING
A FIRE AT NELSON'S BARN.
AN ACCIDENT TO CHEMICAL.
1t is Disabled By the Breaking of One
of the Pipes and The Hose
wagons are Called out-The
Fire Was insignificant

Capt. Jacob Eitler of station No. /,
of the KenOsha fire department., was
painfully burned Tuesday night, while
in discharge of his duty in extinguish-
ing fire in che livery barn of Frank
Nelson on West Main street. The
captain was in charge of the chemical
and after he had got we'll to work on
the burning hay one of the valves on
the chemical exploded and it refused
to work properly, Nevertheless it still
threw small stream and the captain
attempted with this reduced force to
continue the fight against the flames.
In so doing his hands and face were
burned in painful manner and his
hands are especially badly burned to
such an extent that he will not be able
to use them for some time.
The fire in itself was of little moment
Shor ly after o'clock some of the men
in the stable were tending the horses
when one of them kicked over a lantern
and ignited the straw near by. The
men soon succeeded in putting the fire
out as they thought, but later visit to
the second story showed that the flames
had been carried to the hay in that
part Of the barn and after an unsuccess
full attempt to eXtingulsh it a still
alarm was sent in. When the chemical
broke a general alarm was turned in.
As soon as the hose wagons arrived
the fire was soon under control.
The loss on the building will be very
small, but the loss on the feed and hay
will probably reach 500. All of the
horses were removed from the building
without accident, but one of the car
riages was badly scorche- and will
need a new coat of paint. The loss on
the contents of the barn is fully covered
by insurance.

DWIGHT L. sLADE, of Wheatland,


DWIGHT L. SLADE, of Wheatland.
is the gentleman whom the Republicans
of this district have chosen as the
successor to John Reynolds in the
state assembly. Notwithstanding
there is feeling of regret that Mr..
Reynolds will not longer represent the
district in that capacity there is more
than commensurate compensation in
the belief that he will still represent
his district in the higher branch and
that his place in the assembly
will be taken by a man so
worthy and so capable of filing the
vacancy. Mr.. Slade is one of Kenosha
County's representative citizens. AL
though he has always been a conspicu-
Gus factor in politics and prominent
member of the Republican party in this
district, he has never been a public
man. Being the owner of large and
prospecting farm, he has been kept
busy attending to the duties
Herewith connected. But in the
midst of these duties he has
always found time to keep abreast of
the times. A man of clear intellect,
good training and broad information,
he has watched the evolutions and
developments of politics with more
than usual intelligence. He has per-
formed the duties of citizenship with
high appreciation of their true import
ance and in all his political relations
and opinions has been guided rather
by duty and stern conviction than by
mere party utilization. Forty odd
years of studious, thoughtful habits
have tempered the judgment of natur-
ally penetrating mind, and taught all
who know him to esteem him highly
as a man of wisdom and veracity
His splendid qualifications and de-
served popularity ought to insure his
success in the approaching election.
