| She was the widow of the late Thomas

I mill. and not being able to satisfy them
| selves as to the location of the conhagra-
\ ton, treked down to the village by the
htful CLEAN OF lantern carried in front
/ of the advancing column. The way was
i long. and the forced march rather difficult,
/ but the members Of the party were spur
red to their best endeayors by the ylyld
I nictures fancy painted of their respective
/ residences wrapped in flames ana beng
speedily reduced to ashes. Their gratitude
4 al finding their houses intact and roof
/ ready to shelter them was naturally en-
1 HANGED by the utter exhaustion the mere
/ thought OF tramping back to the lake that
/ night produced.
| Judge John X. Parish. a native OF Ran
doInb and brother Of Luke Parish, Esq, Of
/ this town, was the orator at notab
\ celebration of the Fourth of July IN Med
I ford. Wis. Judge Parish is well known
4 here and many will remember his speech
I in Dubois & Gays hall the year OF the
election of Mckinley to the presidency
| His speech at Medford is printed IN the
I Milwaukee Free Press of July and deals
abIv with the national political questions
I of TO-DAY. such as the popular election OF
( senators, trusts, equal taxation, pupllc
SCHOOLS and our duty to Cuba. Judge
I Parish believes in the capacity of the peo-
ME for government and in the intel
\ tectual progress of the race. he says,
..The world advances and must advance
I or it will recede. Each generation must
advance and improve upon its immediate
PREDECESSOR or the world will lapse INTO
barbarism.r A noticeable feature OF TINS
address is that it deals with modern ques-
tions and is not entirely devoted, like the
old. fashioned Fourth OF July orations, 70
the American Revolution and its heroes
and their triumph over the hated red
coats.
