from there he went to Hillsdale COL

lege with an a. B. degree in 1870. Just
before graduating, through the infu-
ence of the president of the college.
who took great interest in him, he
was offered the principalship of an
academy in Maine. He declined the
offer and returned to his home in De
kalb county. After staying on the
farm with his father a few weeks he
went to Aurora and commenced the
study of law with the then leading
lawyer of that circuit, C. j. Metzner.
In 1871 he was admitted to the bar.
and the year following, after a spirit
ed contest, he was elected states at
torney of Kane county. Up to that
time the position of states attorney
had always been held by old lawyers.
and there was considerable opposition
to Mr.. Hopkins because of his having
been only one year at the bar. At
the end of his term of Office he de-
clined a reelection on account of his
growing practice and devoted his time
to the practice of criminal law. In
the meantime his civil practice grew

Mr.. Hopkins has always been active

Republican state central committee in
1876 and was an elector on the Blaine
and Logan ticket in 1884. He was a
candidate for congress three years be-
tore he was first elected. The dis
trict was then known as the Fifth
congressional distict. Mr.. Hopkins was
the candidate presented by Kane
county. De kalb county presented a
in the person of Reuben Ell
wood, brother of Col. |. L. Ellwood.
McHenry county presented Judge Ben
Smith for the honor and Lake county
had a candidate by the name of Steel.
One hundred and fifty ballots were
taken in the convention. When Mr..
Hopkins saw he could not be nominate
ed he threw his strength to the can
didate from De Kaib, his native coun-
ty. and Mr.. Ellwood was nominated,
This was in 1882. Three years after
Congressman EllWcod died, and Mr..
II ODkinS was elected to Fl the une<
pred term in 1888. Since that time
he has been nominated for congress

the devil" commenced, Wednesday,
before the lord chief justice, Lord AL

prisoner pleaded not guilty.
Upwards of 60 years have elapsed
since a treason trial has been held in
London. The last was that of John
Francis. a youth who fred Il pisto! at
the late Queen Victoria as she was
riding down Constitution HILL Francis
was condemned to death, but the SEN

for life. He was released in 1867. I'm

the present case. The courtroom was
crowded, many ladies, including Mrs.

Col. Lynch was pale and careworn,
but he stood in the dock composedly
listening to the lengthy Indictment,
which occupied nearly an hour in
reading.
Drawing, quartering and beheading
accompanied the death penalty for
treason until 1870. when this was
abolished. The death penalty. how
ever, remains.

sures in the earth. about three feet
deep and a few inches wide, and run
ming for a distance of quarter of a
mile, are the only evidences of a mys-
terious explosion which shook this
town just before daybreak Wednes-
day. Houses were shaken violently
and crockery was broken in several
residences. A number of persons,
aroused by the explosion, began
searching for the cause at daylight.
In a meadow they found a crack in
the earth's crust above three feet in
depth and two or three inches wide
They followed it for three-quarters
of mile before they reached the
end. Later, they discovered another
fissure of the same description about
75 feet away from the first and
parallel with it, An explanation of
the explosion is lacking.
