While at work at the mill on Tues

While at work at the mill on Tues
day evening, about 10 O'Clock, Chas.
M. Goats was the victim of murder
Gus assault. He was in the boiler room
feeding the fire box with fuel when
brick, thrown through the open window
in the south OF the building, struck him
beside the head, knocking him sense
less. He soon recovered sufficiently
to shut off certain electric lights which
engaged the attendance of other en-
ployes about the mill, and they came
down to the engine room to investi-
gate. Mr.. Coats was still dazed, but
after a couple of hours rest he resumed
work for the night He was no. seri-
ously injured as it was a glancing
blow. He can only surmise the ident-
ity of the person and the animus. 1t
might have been very serious matter,
not only to Mr.. Goats but to the mill
property and the city. Deprived of
an engineer large steam plant is a
very dangerous power. Possible ex
plosion and fire inevitably suggest
themselves. i.

Whipple has been 8 very sick man
He and afittle girl the sister Of his

The evening service at the Congre-
gational church last Sunday evening
was principally of a musical character.
The pastor spoke briefly but interest
ingly. of the life and character OF
Mozart and of some of his most fa-
nous compositions. Vocal solos by
Messrs. Henshaw and Clement and a
violin solo by Miss Delaney, formed
the special musical features of the SER
vice, and were much enjoyed by the
large congregation present. /.
In almost every neighborhood there is
some one, whose life has been saved by
Chamberlain's collie, cholera and diarrhoea
Remedy, or who has been cured of chronic
diarrhoea by the use of that medicine. Such
persons make point of telling of it when
ever opportunity offers, hoping that it may
be the meant of saving other lives. For
sale by Hanson and Eme rson.
AL. Erwin was running around the
StTccOS Ou lOuudy Will d OlS EOoSGoT
under his arm, and it naturally gave
rise to the surmise that he was looking
for a chance for cock-fght. 1t was
only a truant bird that had strayed
from home, and he was taking him
back to his bereaved flock of hens.
A recent letter from Mr.. r. E.
Knutson informs us that he will be in
the city the latter part of this month.
Those desiring to have their pianos Or
organs tuned will leave orders at
Mrs. Henshaw's studio, or at this office.
AS piano tuner Mr.. Knutson is one
of the best. His terms are reasonable
and his work first class.
