have sucked one down the windpipe

Huna by a Mob.
Word hu just renehrd this ollioe from
a reliable source that George Keller, the
man who was arrested in this city a few
days ago charged with the murder of a
man at Cattlesburgh, a mountain town
in eastern Kentucky, was met at the
train in Cattlesburgh by n mob, as the
officer was taking him back for trial;
and that the officer whs compelled to
give him up and he was hung to a tree,
the blood thirsty mob making but short
work of him. The above report was
sent back by the vifj of Keller to friends
at Pacific Junction. Although six years
had elapsed since the murder, the Ker
tucky blood hud nor yet cooled, and the
law was taken into the hands, forcibly
of a rough class of men who would uot
brook the laws' delav.

J. G. Taite, the able and distinguished
champion of s. protective tariff, will ad

house. The ladies are especially in

sit idly by and let his neighbors' hogs
die by hundreds, and then spring a sure
euro receipt on them after ull are dead,
is too slow to win anything.

S. II. Clifford, New Castle, Wis., was

tors said he was incurable. One bottle
Electrc Bitters and one box Bucklen's

A.C. Mayes returned Jast night from
his work of laying out a new Rock Is
land town northeast of Eagle six miles.
It is laid out on the farm of A. L. Muu
ger whose politics might be guessed from
the fact that he has a Russell and Har
rison street. The town will be "called
Munger, a residence, livery barn and a
lumberyard are already Junder way.
PhPip TrieMch took the sweep 6takes
premium with his fine colt at the last
county fair. The colt was 5 months old
last Saturday, weighed 040 pounds and
is a beauty. W. D. Jones, who knows a
ood thing when he sees it in the horse
line, counted out five $?D gold pieces
yesterday and exchanged them with Mr.
Trietsch for the colt, which by the way
was sired by Duke, one of Jones & Fitz
gerald's imported horses, and today
Jones was offered $150 for his bargain
and he refused to take it. It certainly
pays to raise good stock; it costs n
more to keep it. arid there is always a
good market for anything that is first
class.

Do not be caught iu the delusion ut
many thousands in postponing a Lome
until they can haye an expensive one.
This idea is the devil's trap that catches
men and women innumerable, who will
neyer have any at all. The laborer may
have, at the ele of the day, to walk rr
ride farther than is dt suable to reach it
but when he gets to his destination in
ho eventide he will find something
worthy of being culled by that glori'aia
and impassioned, and heaven descende I
word, 'Home."
Young married man, as soon as you
can buy such a place, tv n if you have
to put on it u mortgage reaching tfrom
base to capstone. The much abased
mortgage which is ruin to the rtcklta
man. to one prudent and provident in
the beginning of a competency aud a
fortune, for the reason he will nol be sat-
sfied until lie Lus paid it off, and all the
household are put on strictest economy
until then. Deny yourself all superflui
ties and all luxuries until you can uy:
"Everything in this house is mine thanir
God! every timber, eyery brick evcrr
foot of plumbing, every doorsill." Dt
not have children born in a bearding
house, and do net yourself bt buried
from one. Have a place whireyour
ch'ld.cn can shout and sing ki d romp
and not be overhauldcd for the racket
ilaye a kitchen where you can do some
thing toward the reformation of evil
cookery and the lessening of this nation
of despeptics. As Napoleon lo.st one of
his great buttles )y an attacked of indi
gestion, so many men have such a daily
wrestle with the food swallowed that
they have no strength left for the battle
of life; and though your wife may know
how to play all musical instruments and
rival a prima dona, she is not well edu
cated unless she can boil an Irish potatoe
and broil a mutton chop, since the die
sometimes decides the fate of families
and nations.
Have a setting room with at hast one
easy chair, even though you have to take
turns at sitting in it, and books out O
the public library, or of your ovn pur -chase
for the making of your family in
telligent, and checker boards and guess
ing matches, with an occassional blind
man's bluff, which is of all games my
fayorite.' Rouse up your homes with al
styles of innocent amusement, and gath
er up in your children's lives a reeervor
of exuberance that will poor down re
freshing streams when life gets parched '
and the dark days come and the lights
go out and the laughter is smothered in
to a sob. TDe Witt Talmage.
