a NOBLE TRIBUTE.

Fond du Lac, Wis, Jan. 1.-THE
volunteers of Wisconsin and their fam
lies have reason to feel grateful to-
wards the people of Charleston, SEC,
and especially the ladies of that city
for the noble work they did in attend
ing to the wants of the soldiers when
there last summer. The kindnesses
showered upon the sick and afflicted OF
,Ae second regiment will never be for
gotten. 1t has just come to the knows
edge of the people of Fond du Lac that
the Daughters of the American Revo-
luton, of whom Charleston has a
goodly number, have performed a
most charitable deed, one that causes
the hearts of the soldiers and their
relatives and friends to swell with
feelings OF sincerest thankfulness
These ladies have marked the graves
of the Wisconsin soldiers with head
stones, appropriately engraved. Mayor
Mayham has received letter from
Mrs. Francis NJ. Jones, regent of the
chapter of the Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution in Charleston In
which she pays high compliments to
Wisconsin's volunteers. Photographs
of the graves and the newly erected
stones will be sent to Fond du Lac.
She says among other things:
I'VE wanted as finale to OUT work to
place stones at the head of those
graves and | sought one artist, &c. t.
Welt, who generously offered to place
four white marble slabs to mark the
dear boys graves, each with the flag
engraved on it, name, age and Second
Wisconsin Regiment They are now
in position, thick, substantial stones,
and can be taken with the bodies if
ever removed home or to a national
cemetery"

THE MIND HEALER'S ZEE.

Some years ago "A friend of mine
went to a mind-healer for a lark.
There was nothing in the world the
matter with him, but he pretended to
be The victim OF terrible headaches.
The wonderful healer asked no ques-
tlons as to the cause of the ailment.
He did not care about that, for he had
one panacea which sufIlced for every
III. Said he to the young investiga-
tor: Go home, and whenever the
headache comes on. sit down quietly
and put your whole mind on it, think
Ing with all your might that you have
not got headache. Then you will
not have IT, and will be cured"
That's easy" said my young friend.
What is youi see?"
Five dollars"
We'll, sir, you put your whole mind
on 10 and think with all your might
that you have that five dollars. Then
you will have II, and will be paid. -

London, Jan. Widespread deyas-
tation on land and sea has been the
result of the storm and the aggregate
loss to property immense. Re-
ports are gradually filtering through
from provinces, telling of dismantled
vessels, overlooking rivers, inundated
streets and fields, buildings flooded,
cattle and sheep drowned, railroads
disorganized and disasters to life and
limb from falling debris. The London
parks and buildings suffered heavily.
The Thames overlooked, along the up
per reaches, with serious loss to dwell
eTs on the banks. Most of the coast
towns suffered severely. Promenades
have been swept by the sea and har-
bors and piers damaged. Parts of
southampton are under water.
Schools were closed yesterday after
noon and in the evening the tide
overlooked all boundaries and threat
ems serious results. In many parts OF
Portsmouth boats were employed In
the main streets yesterday to take the
school children home Numerous small
wrecks were reported and all life boats
were kept exceedingly busy. Three
men who were returning from a flu
neral near Castle Island, Ireland, were
lifted by the wind, hurled into pit
and killed. The pier at the entrance to
Dieppe, France, has been completely
demolished and great havoc is report
Ell along the Normandy coast.

AS Veronica descended the broad
staircase, she looked in establishment
at the brilliant scene that met her
gaze on every side. The shining
lights, the wealth of evergreen-holly,
with lovely, laughing, crimson ber-
ries; the graceful laurel with it's shin
ing leaves; the dark, stately fir; and
the sweet, mystic misletoe-it was all
like dream to her.
Her heart warmed as she gazed. II
this was an English Christmas, then
might Heaven bless Christmas for
ever more!
Every one had something kind To
say; there was a smile on every face
light in kindly eyes. music in the
sound of kindly voices.

Satisfactory to Defendant.

Henry Van Week. George Ramsey, Walter
Henry c. Allen and w. B. Allen.
As the defendant claims the prosecution is
in reality persecution instigated for political
reasons by the Republican city machine he
was much excited after the jury was COM
pleted to learn the status Of Juryman George
Ramsey. Mr.. Deringer says Ramsey is a

TOPICS OF THE TURF.

Messrs. A. H. and D. H. Morris and R. w.
Walden are announced as the owners of Glen
helm Manuel and Glenheim. They were
purchased last year at the Madden sale by
Walden, and the general supposition was
that he was acting for the Messrs. Morris.
The horses are wintering at Memphis, but
will be shipped to New Orleans shortly to
run in the Crescent City Derby. This stake
will be worth $4,000 to the winner.
Craig w. Wadswirth. one Of Col. Roose-
velt's rough riders, will have racing string
this season. He has registered his colors
with the Jockey club as cherry, rose hoops,
cherry sleeves and cap"
Sydney Paget, racing partner OF ex-Secrs-
tary of the Navy W. c. Whitney. will spend
the winter in England. He is particularly
interested in steeplechasing, and has entered
his great jumper Sir Vassar in many Of the
principal events there.
Owing to the recent death Of Mrs August
Belmont, the president of the Jockey club
will not race his horses in his name this
season, but in that Of his trainer, J. J. Hy-
land. The Belmont colors, however, have
been retained and will no doubt be seen
in public in 1900.
