Mixad i'm His Location.

The following is told of an Ameri-
can gentleman who was recently stop
ming with his wife at the Hotel Cecil,
London. On their first evening there
he happened to retire somewhat later
than his spouse. Arriving at the door
of what he imagined to be his room,
and finding it locked, he tapped and
called 'Honeyw No answer came, and
he called again and more loudly,
"Honey!' Still he got no reply, and,
becoming somewhat uneasy, he shout
ed the endearing term with his full
lung power. This time a reply came,
and in a male voice. go away, you
blithering idiot! This is a bathroom,
not a blooming beehive!'

THERE is an individual by the name
OF Rodernund, bearing the title of DIR.
dwelling in Appleton, Wisconsin.
He is supposed to be an eye specialist
and has studied the symptoms and
characteristics of small pox until he
has discovered that the dread disease
is not contagious. Not long ago he
wrote a book on the "Murderous Fads
IN the Practice of Medicine" in which
he brought forth his theory as to the
non-contagious character of small pox.

QUEEN VICTORIA lived sixty-three
years on the throne of England. She
lived perfectly pure life. There was
uone of the giddiness nor effeteness
about the court of Queen Victoria that
has too often characterized the royal
life of England. She was a woman of
high moral standards and ideals.
Comparatively few who were babes
when Victoria assembled the throne are
alive now, and fewer still who were of
her own age at that time. One gener-
alton has passed into history, and an
other has been born and passed into
maturity under the wholesome inf1u-
ence of the life of Queen Victoria and
the coterie about her person. The
good results of such life, with it's in
fuence extended over so long an era,

TO FOSTER MATRIMoNY.
Assemblvman Saru Will Introduce Two
Curious Bills in State Legislature.

Assemblyman Saru, of Oshkosh. has
two remarkab BILE bills which he will in
troduce shortly to the State Legis1a-
ture. One is to encourage the develop
ment of population by having the
State pay an annual premium to the
mothers of large families as follows:
Mothers having six children, $40;
seven children, $12; eight, SIS; nire,
$40; ten, SIS; eleven, $50; twelve, $35,
The other is entitled bill to encour-
age matrimony, and is said to have
been drafted by the Woman's club of
Oshkosh. It provides that the AS
SCISSORS of the towns shall take a list of
the unmarried men of 80 years of age
or over and fix a special tax of $40
year on them. Neither widowers nor
divorced men are to be considered I'M
married young men.
A. r. Hall, author of the anti-pass
law of two years ago, introduced a
railroad commission bill, similar to the
Iowa law. It provides for six commits
sioners, to serve six years at $4,000 a
year, but all expenses of the commits
sion are not to exceed $4,000 year.
The bill prohibits determinations and
allows the commission to limit rates.

THE dispatches say that the Creek
uprising has reached dangerous pro-
portions. Nearly 800 of the armed
and painted warriors are threatening
an attack upon the town of Muskogee.
NO doubt, if our friend Aguinaldo is
still within the ken of human events,
he is fully convinced that the national
government is in immediate danger of
overthrow.

Lord RusseII's First Success.

Master of himself, as he was at
nearly all times, Lord Russell prob
ably never appeared to better advan-
tage than when he made his first sue
cess at the bar by persisting in case
after his leader, Edwin James, had
thrown up his brief. When Russell
rose to speak the judge inquired testi-
ly: ''Don't you know, sir, that your
leader has left the court?'' Russell,
without finching, said that he did, but
there were some points which he
thought it was his duty to put before
the jury. ooh, go on" said the judge
ironically. A few minutes later, how
ever, he asked the young barrister his
name. "Charles Russell, was the re
ply, and the young lawyer went on
with his argument. In the course OF
the speech he conquered the prejudice
of the Judge, who, at it's close, before
addressing the jury, confessed to MI.
Russell that at first he had thought
him guilty of great impertinence in
putting himself forward to address the
jury after his leader had abandoned
the case, but that he had entirely
justified himself by his ability and
skill,

THE friends and the supposed
boons of the former Prince of Wales,
such as Richard Croker, Esq, of Tam
many Hall, New York, must not pre-
sumo too much on their boosted COM
partnership with the Prince, now that
he has assumed the title of King Ed

dents in English history for an Eng

For Circuit Judge.

The movement to make Hon. John
B. Simmons, of Racine, Circuit Judge
in place of Mr.. Fish, the present in
cumbent, who declines reelection, is
most enthusiastically endorsed by
nearly everybody in Walworth county,
irrespective of party or creed. Mr..
Simmons was practicing attorney in
Lake Geneva for many years, where he
established an enviab1e reputation IN
the profession. He is admitted to be a
man of great legal learning, as we'll as
cede his upright character and fair
ness. It can be truly said that he is
gentleman as we'll as a lawyer, and a
gentleman as a lawyer. His superb
talents attracted much attention, and
when Mr.. Cooper was elected to Con-
gress, Mr.. Simmons was induced to go
to Racine to carry on the large law
business of Mr.. Cooper's firm, in which
ne has been most successful. Although
a legal resident of that city, we claim
him as citizen of Wa1worth county.
That he will make an able and upright
Judge, no man who knows him will
deny. He is made of the right mater
ia1 for that position, and if chosen, he
will fill the office with honor and
credit to himself, and give satisfaction
to those having business in his court.

INDEPENDENTS DEFEATED.
Belle Cities Take Vengeance on the Keno
sba Bowlers.-Unions Also Defeated.

The Independent bowling team went
to Racine Thursday evening for the
purpose of taking another fall out of
the Belle City team, but the Racine
players managed to turn the tables,
and won from the Kenoaha players by
a score of 480 points.
The Kenosha team was two men
shy, and on this account they put into
play City Clerk Jacob and Alderman
O'Brien, and with one voice the indie
pendents claim that the loss of the
game was due to the members of TIE
Official team. The two men we're
interviewed and one of them stated
that this was rank injustice to them,
and that the real trouble was the fact
that the Racine men had added forty
feet to their alleys, and for this reason
the city bow1ers, who were out of
practice, couldn't see the pins.
