Wanted to Drive Out the Devil.

On the 10th Mr.. and Mrs. George
Copeland, who live four miles from
Minden City, were arrested and lodged
In Jail at Sanilac Center on the charge
of ill-treating their s-year-old daugh-
ter. Before making the arrests the
officers discovered that the child had
repeatedly been tied up in an out house
and left there for several days and
nights; also that the little girl had
been tied up and left in the cellar for
five days. The child showed marks of
ill-usage, and told very pitiful story.
When questioned as to the cause of her
ill-treatment, the little one said that
her mother told her that she was very
wicked and possessed of the devil and
must be punished.

Mr.. Wendling' s Lecture.


Those of our Clarke people who
were at Winston Hall last Friday
evening and heard the address of
Hon. George II. Vending were treat
ed to a master piece of oratory, the
effect of which will linger for some
time in their memory. Mr. Wend-
ling stands in the front rank of
American platform orators, and those
who listened to his lecture on "Stone-
wall Jackson" last Friday night con-
cede he is justly entitled to the posi-
ton given him by competent critics
of this country.
The audience was large and in
telligent one, there being present
persons from every section of the
county, and We understand the speak
er was much pleased with the atten-
ton given his remarks. The entire
proceeds of the lecture were devoted
to the fund now being raised for the
purpose of erecting a monument to
the Confederate dead of Clarke
county.
Mr.. Weddings lecture was I'M
pressive, often thrilling, and at times
pathetic, stirring up the emotions in
the heart of the Southerner. His
description of Stonewall Jackson
military achievements, particularly
those at first and second Manassas and
In the Valley campaign, was graphic
and set the audience wild with en-
thusiasm, evOking cheer after cheer.
The speaker said, with all due rever-
ence for the Almighty, he sometimes
belieyed that Jackson was in touch
with the Divine, so ingenious. strate-
gic and prOvident was he in his
movements.
The whole lecture was a literary
and intellectual feast, such as IS
rarely given our people the privilege
to enjoy.

Mr.. scHAFFER's UNIQUE VIEWS.
President of the Iron and Steel Workers
Union Says Trusts Are Beneficial to
His Branch. of Labor.

Washington, Sept. "a. = Theodore
Schaffer, of Pittsburgh, president of
the Amalgamated Association of Iron
and Steel Workers, was a witness be-
fore the industrial committee Satur-
day. He said that about 20 per cent.
of the iron, steel and tin workers were
organized. After 1892 the iron work
ers suffered 80 per cent. reduction of
wages, the steel workers 10 per cent.
and the tin workers 25 per cent, but
since the recent prosperity began the
wages have been almost leveled up by
advances. The trade was now more
prosperous than it had ever been, but
the wages were not quite as high as in
1892
Asked about trusts, Mr.. Schaffer
said he had much respect for them anJ
he would not call them trusts
Their effect thus far has been benefi.
cial to the iron, steel and tin workers.
AS general rule he said he believed
the members of his organization would
prefer to deal with combinations and
large corporations than with the
smaller independent mills. He believed
if the big combinations could be regu-
lated by congressional enactment,
strikes could be avoided. In his ex-
perience he had always had fair treat
ment in negotiating with these COM
binations. He did not believe they
prevented competition.

Relics Of great crimes in Paris are

nor are they retained within the arch
ives of the prefecture de police; they
are exhibited for few days and are
then knocked down to thehighest bid

too, residing in Paris, have large collec-
tions of this bric-ajbrac de crime. The
government shop in the Rue de Ecoles.
where the grewsome objects are ex-
posed for sale occasionally. has a Gu
rious lot or two to offer any would-be
purchaser. Up to the present, how
ever, pieces of human anatomy have
not figured in the catalogue, but there
was recently offered for sale gentle
mans ear in an excellentstate of pres
ervation. as the auctioneer remarked.
owing to its having been kept in spirits
Of wine. The ear belonged to one
named NJ. Deloyer. and was bitten off
by an adversary in the course of a
street row. Deloyer recovered from
the effects of the injury. The article
was finally knocked down for five
francs. A heavily muffled man in the
audience was supposed to have been
the original possessor of the ear. He
continually managed to raise the bid
at doubtful moment, but he was not
able to buy in the article, which finally
went to NJ. Lafage.-Chicago Inter
Ocean.
