CARL SCHURz has been celebrating
his golden jubilee, or the fttieth year
| of his expulsion from Prussia fol
his participation in the rebellion Of
1848. The life of Carl Schurz reads
| more like a romance than reality
Shortly after his escape from the
fatherland he made his way to Wa
tertOwn where relatives, the Jussens,
had preceded him, and purchased a
home in the Fifth ward, now owned
by the James Hall estate. And right
here it may be said commenced the
political and journalistic career of
one of the foremost men in America
today. In 1858 or so he was inter
ested in the publication of German
Republican newspaper here, but the
conditions being somewhat unfavor-
able it did not long survive His first
venture in political life was as alder
man of the Fifth ward. Watertown's
common council In those days was a
fine school for those who wanted to
enter the ranks of higher political
life. 1t was composed of body of
men able to hold their own in debate
with any legislative gathering in the
state. Such men as VIM. M. Dennis,
William Chapel, Patrick and Peter
n
Moak, c. B. Skinner, Daniel Hall,
Luther A. Cole, Daniel Jones, M. J.
Gallagher, P V. Brown, F. E. Shan
drew, A L Pritchard, Edward John
son and others, were men we'll versed
in the science of law and commerce.
Carl Schurz was an apt scholar, and
soon ranked with the best of his fell
lows. After his removal to Milwau-
kee he was nominated FOR lieutenart-
governor, but suffered defeat at the
hands of his party. Leaving there
be went to Detroit, and again en-
gag+d IN newspaper work, Soon tir-
ing of Detroit, he went to st, Louis,
and with Joseph Pulitzer commenced
the publica tion of The Westliche Post
Missouri Republicans appreciated
Schurz, and elected him to he United
States senate, where he soon ranked |
with the ablest debaters on the Re-
publican side of the chamber Wheth.
81 as alderman, senator, ma or-gen-
eral, minister to Spain or member Of
the cabinet. he was conspicuous for
ability and fidelity to duty. And,
alter having passed the 10th year
OF his age, We find him still engaged
IN literary work and taking an active
interest in the welfare of his adopted
country.

DANGERS of the Grippe.

The greatest danger from La Grippe
is of its resulting in pneumonia. If
reasonable care is used, however, and
Chamberlains Cough Kennedy taken, all
danger will be avoided. Among the

remedy for la grippe we have yet to
learn Of single case having resulted in
pneumonia, which shows conclusively
that this remedy is a certain preventive
of that dangerous disease. 1t will cure

How to Find Out.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
your water and let it stand twenty four
hours A sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys;
if it stains your linen it is evidence of
kidney trouble; too frequent desire to
pass it or pain in the back is also con-
vincing proof that the kidneys and blad-
der are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills
every wish in curing rheumatism, pain
in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. 1t
corrects inability to hold water and scald-
ing pain III passing it, or bad effect
following use of liquor, wine or beer,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often during
the day, and TO get up many times dur
ing the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need medicine yor

which is about ten feet from the groon1.
Officer Battln at once Investigated nd
found the report to b. true. The fellow,
on etirg the officer, who was at con-
sidera lie dis ance from him, walked
rapidly away. Officer Battin followed
aud had lined considerably on bis man
when he suddenly uisapp ar d near Pisd-
mont street and the officer could not
locate him. Offer Battin said yesterday
that he warned Turnkey doll and reoited
the incident In detail. Officers Of the
police force say that time and again he
had seen strangers, f,iends Il prisoners,
talking with them through the bars
within the prison, without being watch he'd
or m ade to stand distancs from those
with whom they oonversed. The matte,
Of putting pis ols saws or any other
articles through the bars was a simple
hing to do without resOrtiDg to placing
them In baked bread or bouquets, as Is
told about in nickls story books. The
warning given by Officer Battin evidently
tad little effect on the energies of the
jail officials. Turnkey Doll admits his
fault, but that is not uousual for turn
keys. 1t is but natural to protect the
sheriff, in hose hands the absolute control
of the Jail Ia placed.
WOULD NOT HAVE GONE.
Mrs. Annie K. George, who is charged
with the murder of George d. Ssxton,
was not on the floor from which the men
escaped, being located up stai's. As
there is not large nu ber of prisoners,
II is possible to keep all the men down
stairs, while the women are given the
upstairs rooms. There is no dirsct con-
nection # the two apnrs, and HrS George
had therefore no opportunity to escape,
had she so desired. 1t is sail that she
stated yesterday that she would not have
gone If the men had pushed ont the
whole south end of the Jail and made 1t
possible for her to walk out. Besides
Mrs. George, the only occupants of tie
upper alor are the little Horner children,
who are held as witnesses against the
negro Gibson and old man Reamer.
Neither Mrs. George nor the children
knew any thing Of the escape Of the pris-
oue's until told # 1t next morning.
