who was killed a couple of week ago
by Bud Chatfee, went to Sturgis
during the early part of the weeI
to counsel the States Attorney O
Meade County concerning her hush,
and's death and in hopes that she
might secure the arrest OF Chaffee,
AS it will be remembered, immed,
lately after the shooting Chaffee
was arranged before Justice Keith
Of Dazell, where he pleaded guilty O.
the crime but claimed it was in self.
defense. Justice Keith after listen.
ing to Chaffee's story released him
from custody. This was rather a
loose way of treating so serious
q matter and Mrs. Sisley determined
to appeal to the States Attorney.
The appeal was in a way successful
as the sheriff OF Meade County and
the States Attorney left Sturgis
THE week for the scene of the crime
and they intend to thoroughly inves-
tigate the affair. Chaf7ee will pro-
badly be ~re-arrested. The shooting
Is said to have resulted from an old
fued which has existed between the
two men for several years past.
A. W. Bangs had the misfortune
to suffer a slight stroke of paralysis
last Saturday while in his office
attending to his daily work, Some
thing went wrong with the stove
pipe and the Judge got up on a chair
and attempted to fix it, He was
compelled to reach quite y distance
and this is thought to have brought
it on. He soon commenced to feel
a peculiar numbness come oyer his
left side. and found in a few NOM
ents that he could not use his left
arm and left leg at all. A doctor
was called and Mr.. Bangs was re-
moved to his home, where he is still
confined, although the doctor says
he will be all right again in q short
time. Mr.. Bangs displayed remar-
kable fortitude when be found out
what was the matter and laughed
and joked in that irrepressible way
Of his that makes every body happy
around him. We all hope for his
speedy recovery.
Saturday evening the Christian
Edeavor Sociaty OF the Congrega-

with During twenty years of inter-
 course I can hardly remember hearing
 him speak of an individual except for
 some practical purpose, or else to illus
 trate some general principle. His talk
 was of generalities. He generalized
 necessarily; almost everything he said
 was a generalization. It you remarked
 it was a fine day, Spencer would ans
 wer: Yes; anti-cyclonie conditions like
 those of yesterday seldom break up
 without warning of the advent of de-
 precision from westward" If you ob-
 served that Mrs. Jones was a pretty
 woman, Spencer would reply: Her
 father was a. West Highlander. and her
 mother an Irishwoman, and intermar- riage between Highlanders and Irish almost always produces inferior child dren." I often used to wonder, when uttered some most commonplace statement, what universal principle or philosophic remark 1t would draw forth from Spencer, and I was seldom disap-
 pointed George Eliot one made good repartee to him on one such occasion.
 The talk had turned on fiy-fshing, and she asked Spencer, who was a devoted, though not, believe. a very successful, fiy-fisher what sort of fly he preferred to fish with. Oh said the philoso- pher, T lay little stress on the partic- ular kind of fly; I make my own; and all I aim at is to give what the fish ex- pects-the vague representation of an insect fluttering about over the surface of the water" q see," said George Eliot; you're so fond of generalizing that you fish with generalization" ," Which in point of fact was exactly what he did do.
 This ingrained habit of ignoring tri- fles and mere personal gossip, while att taching himself to what was most cen tral and important inrthe topic under discussion, made Spencer's conversa- ton the most interesting, that I have ever listened to. Fools found it dull, no doubt. It was certainly not bril- liancy. But 1t was full of meat weighy, pregnant, suggestive. His opin- l ion on all subjects was always worth hearing; you might agree with it or l you might combat it. but you could not l afford to ignore 1t. We differed on many things, and we talked our differ
 ences out, sometimes with considerable warmth; but I never remember dis eussing any point on which we varied
 without retiring from the discussion a
 little less certain of my own opinion than when I started, and a little more
 inclined to admit there was something
 to be said for Spencers side of the
 questions which one thought closed for
 ones own mind forever.-Forum.
