Killed by an Accident.

Owen McElhouse, toWn off Clinton
Young man, was killed in Forest county
while working in the woods near Miner
Town. The facts as we learn them i'm
this sorrowful affair are Owen in com
pany with a fellow workman were in
the act of Telling large tree. They
sawed partly through the trunk, when
the tree split and one half Of it fell to
the ground. The men sawed through
the other half. but it would not fall and
they then attempted to push it Off the
stump. The huge log instead of falling
away from the stump slid back with
awful force and struck young McEl-
house on the head, caving in his skull
and breaking his neck. The young
man fell and never moved.
The body was shipped here and taken
by relatives and buried at Dell. Mr..
McElhouse was about 22 years of age
and leaves besides mother, three
sisters and three brothers, all of this
community. -Cashton Record.

JUDGE. JURY. AND ExEcurIoNER.
Former Resident Of Readstown Commits
Suicide in Jail.

In the Allamakee county Jail at Wau-
kon, Iowa, March 2Sth, William Ball
zell, late resident of Readstown. COM
mitted suicide. In January last. Ball
zcll murdered his sister-in-law, a Mrs.
Geldes of Manning community. The
act took place near Postville, Iowa.
where the woman was STAYING with a
relative BallZell was widower. He
went to the farm residence where Mrs.
Geddes was stopping, demanded that
she secure a divorce from her husband
and marry him. On declining his pro
posals Ballzen drew a revolver and Shot
the woman dead. He was soon captured
and lodged in Jail.
Gleanings from Waukon paper give
information of the tragedy as follows:
"Ballzell had secured possession of a
binding twine which he wound tightly
about his neck several times and after
securely knotting the ends he inserted
the handle of a broom inside the
strands around his neck. A twist of
the broom handle followed and in the
throes of strangulation he is supposed
TO have sank to the fcor, falling parti-
ally upon the broom handle and his fear
full act of self-destruction was accom-
plished. He evidently did not struggle
much as a quilt and pillow that he had
spread upon the floor were scarcely dis
turbed. The suicide took place in his
cell within the. steel cage in the main
Jail room. His plans were no doubt
carefully laid and he set about in de-
liberate manner to launch himself into
eternity, the victim of remorse for his
frenzied act on January 90 when he
shot his sister-in-law dead.
Ballzell had feigned insanity since his
incarceration. He had but little to
say but ate heartily and slept well to
ali appearances. Ballzells trial would
not have taken place until the fall
term. 1t is understood that his attor-
ney was preparing a defense for him
on insanity lines

Lightning and Tooth picks

Those who did not hear Sylvester A.
Long at the Congregational church last
Thursday evening have reason for re-
gret. When boy, the speaker went
out into the fields after thunder storm
and found fence post shattered to
splinters by bolt of lightning An
old man told him that he would never
have toothache if he would use one of
those splinters as atoothpick On that
incident Mr.. Long based his lecture
Speaking of current superstitions he re-
futed them all, declaring that every
thing is under the reign of law, nothing
happens by chance. There is no virtue
in a toothpick from post struck by
lightning. 1t was struck by being in
the path of the bolt, in the line between
the points of difference in potentials
which induced the passage of the cleo
trio current. Neither does a man sue
ceed by chance; there is no such thing
as luck. Success comes from a man s
establishing a difference of potentials
and putting himself in the way of sue
cess that is'bound to follow. The reign
of law is universal. Sometimes it,
brings hardship and suffering; so often
in fact, that it would be uncomfortable
were it not that law is sOftened, mel
lowed and made endurable by love.
Love of the infinite Father so tempers
the consequences of law as to make life
joy instead of curse, and it is the
business of every man by his kindness
and sympathy and service to help make
the lives of others glad, where the
workings of law would else make them
miserable. And yet, law is benefcent.
We are to appropriate its gifts through
habit. That man is most fortunate
who has enlisted good habits to help him
on toward the highest successes.
While the lecture was solid, as the
above review indicates, it sparkled with
humor, illustrated and enforced as IL
was by stories of wit at every turn.
