BEATING FOR A wIFEBEATER.
Alderman Donohue, Instead of Fine
Ing Frank OldReId. Gives Him
ThrashinRl

Alderman John Il. Donohue, OF
Wilkesbarre, Pa. gave wife beater a
remarkable lesson the other night. AS
n result the man has two black eyes
and is badly bruised about the face and
body. The wife beater is Frank Old
field, who weighs 40 pounds, and was
brought from Plymouth by consta-
BILE. you've been up for beating your
wife dozen times" said the alderman,
when oldfield appeared The latter
said It was few more times.
WELL" said Donohue, lit won't hap
pen again If can helpit. There's only
one way to deal with such cattle"
Oldfeld was compelled to take Off
his coat, and the alderman took off his
coat and cuffs. Then he pulled 0ldfield
out OF the prisoners pen, senttwo con-
stables to keep the doors shut, eau
tioned the spectators to remain quiet
aud then told Oldfield to defend him
self.
Donohue opened the battle by knock
ing Oldfield down with right-hand
blow in the face. The prisoner arose
and tried to take revenge, but the al
derman rained blows on him with pre-
cision and force.
Twice more Oldfeld went down, but
arose. Finally he clinched, only to be
thrown heavily. Then he rushed for
the door, but the cheering spectators
threw him back. He clinched again,
and both men fell. Donohue got OH
top. and, ignoring all ring rules,
punched the prisoner until he prom.
ised nfeyyer to beat his wife again.
Now go home" painted Donohue,
"and behave yourself like man."
AS Donohue resumed his coat an
other wife beater, David Rowlands,
covered in the prisoners pen. The
alderman asked him II the object les
son was not good one. Rowlands
agreed TREMENDOUSLY and was dis

The Champion Of the World,

The great success "Mulligan Guards
Ball." will tour the country this sea-
osn with the worlds champion, Rob
ert Fitzslmmons, and the wonderful
actor and author, Edward Harrigan,
under the management of Martin Jul
ian. The play and stars will be sur
rounded with a first-class company of
recognized performers, metropolitan
favorites who have appeared in all the
leading drawing cards with the public;
besides the management will introduce
the play with all the original scenery,

order and the music is of the popular

Ten times prince, with royal wisdom
won
From lonely searchings and the strif,
for light;
Where, If l conquer, lol all earth is
Mine by chief servicel--tell him--mine
by lovel
Since there is hope for man only in
| man.
And more hath sought for this as !
will seek.
Who cast away my world to save my
world"
More than two thousand times the
earth has compIetedeits circuit around
the sun since the good prince rode,
mot for men alone,
But for all things which, speeehless,
share our pain e
And have no hope, nor wit to ask for

and to millions he h still the Light by
which they walk "life's rugged path
way through" 2t4
In that he was taken up to the
mountain top and shown all the king
doms of the earth which the tempter
told him might be his, the experience
of Jesus was not unique. The very
same temptation comes to every young
man that Graves power to rule over
his fello@unien, but all are not wise
enough t9ispurn the tempters offer and
emulate the example of Jesus, who
made himself of no reputation, and
hook upon him the form of servant
and became Obedient unto death, even
the death of the cross In the hour
of their folly they "sell the thrones of
angels for a short and turbulant pleas
ure."
Jesus might nave been a ruler in
Judea, perchance in Rome; but for the
sake of humanity he remained poor,
and the life that seemed to be lost now
underlies our civilization as the alpha
bet underlies our language.
The only achievements that are per-
manent are the achievements of the
soul Beaten and washed by "the new
er-ending flood of years." everything
else passes away. Nations rise, -four
lsh and decay; cities, rich in commerce
and architecturally imposing, fall
forms of government change and
crowns lose their original Significance
new conceptions displace the old in
art; rocks crumble and mountains are
washed down into the sea, but the
soul survives and love never faileth.
40 king that ruled after the manner of
kings has been able to command the
allegiance of millions of people for
thousands of years as Moses, Buddha
and Jesus have done. God hath in
deed chosen the humble of ear.l to
confound the mighty.
Though the cause of Evil prosper,
Yet it's Truth alone is strong;
Though her portion be the scaffold,
And upon the throne be wrong
Yet that scaffold sways the future,
md, behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within ne Shadow,
Keeping watch above His own
The time between the sowing and
reaping may be prolonged until pa
tience is sorely taxed; but ''the never
ending flood of years" rolls on and the
judgments of the Lord are true, and
righteous altogether ALFRED.

point of vantage of inestimable value
when we insist upon our share of the

and every foot of territory we possess
in the Pacific will enhance our power,

BE Careful of Your Fire.

For the information of those who have
not Kept up with the laws passed by the
last legislature we call attention to he
fact that law was passed making it a
mlsdemeanor and a heavy fine for anv
one to put out fire SO as to burn off the
fields or lands of their neighbors. wheth>
er the fire gets out by intention or care
lessness, and at the same time it pro-
Vides that they shall be responsible for
any damage such fire may do. We call
attention to this fact just now, as it is
about time people are starting out for
another crop, and, as it is the custom to
burn the grass off of the field, to cau>
ton then that they should be careful
and not let the fire get beyond the place
intended TO be burned.
Sometimes fire is set out in a field
and gets beyond control and burns the
field and woods for miles. Under the
present law the one setting out the fire
would be subject to be prosecuted by
every man whose woods or field was
burned, besides being responsible for
any damage that might be claimed.
