The news of the hanging of the Chicago anarchists on our streets to-day caused some excitement of course, but the announcement that all was cpiiet in Chicago was more than was expected. Two men were before Judge Math ews last evening charged with disorder ly conduct. One plead guilty and was lined $3 and costs. The other plead not guilty and his hearing was set for this afternoon. James Gilmour, son of William Gil mour, was in town to-day receiving treat ment for a felon, from Dr. Livingston. The felon is on his riht hand and is a very painful one. The concert and dance given by the young ladies of St. Luke's Guild at Fitzgerald's hall was a very good success. The attendance was fair and the enter tainment very pleasing. Dr. A. O'Leary, M. D., Rockwood hall last evening subject "Brain and Nerves." spoke in from the The hall was well filled and Mr. O'Leary handled his subject in a very instructive manner; Bpeaking from experience and study, lie speaks to-night on "Throat and Lungs." Cornelius Carey, who is employed in the B & M. plaining department re ceived an ugly wound on the inside of the left handthis morning from a saw. Tae wound bled profusely and this after noon he had it dressed by Dr. Livingston but he will be unable to work for several days. Did youever, when tempted to swear, stop and count ten or repeat the alpha bet? An exchange advises the practice of so doing, but doesn't say how many one should count when a man's collar won't stay buttoned behind and is continually hitching up to his ears, or when the shapely anklets of his socks festoon themselves down over the tops of his shoes, or when he dislocates a suspender button, or when a section or two of stove pipe falls apart. In both these cases it is impossible for the average man to couht over two and a half and keep his shirt on. Nothing in the world is more pain ful to those who have regard for sacred things than profanity, and nothing is more significent of the moral status of those who constantly befoul the atmos phere with vile language. This morn ing, a wagon whose owner had evidently gone to Kansas with the purpose of violating the laws adopted against tht liquor trafic, passed through the city with the most disgusting and foul language scrawled upon it. We do not believe in any thing like the "blue law" system but cannot let such a thing pas without rebuke and an expressed hop that the like may neyer be seen upon our treets again. TURKEYS TILL YOU CAN'T REST. An Kxperlenced Commlulon Merchant Cilven Iteporter Home Turkey Lore. "Turkeya until you can't rest." 'More than ordinarily nof "There always are plenty of turkeys," ex plained tho commission merchant, "but I never Haw the promise or mien a mitro crup t.f.n If vim werp to tuku a trio ui tnroimh tho center of thi state, or out through New Kiiland, yon would llnd the trees around every farm house full of them." "Is there much proMttn raising turKeyhi "Lots of it. It costs tho farmer next to nothing to raise them. They generally go oft in the spring nd make their nests in fence corners and out of tho way places, where they i.nfh Mu.ii- vn liny From that time on they are no expense to spouk of , as they usually take their broods into me wuwm win-u im-j can. If they are kept in the ttrnyard they do not cost any more than chickens to raise. "When this is don tho farmers generally shut up the old hen for a fow weeks, until tho youngsters get enough strcngin to Keep up ith TIh-v irnt most of their living out of the bugs and insects that they find, but - ... M come around at nignc ior a nanuiui ol wu or wheat. "About the middle-of October tho early turkeys are pretty well grown, nnd they are put through a rattening process ior uuitkcl. A good many different methods are em ployed Somo farmers give them all the corn they can eat three times a day. Others shut them up and feed eornmeal dough; wi.on tVi nrWv t.irs of eatinsr tho farmer stuffs the dough down his throat with a spoon , -t i i until he is crammed run. uii raeai buu kuu flower seeds are also used for fattening and in some sec tions walnuts are fed in the 6amo manner. Tho dose is increased until just be fore killing time, when two dozen nuts are fed each day. This is the Italian method, and tho rich flavor of tho nut makes the tur key taste like wild game. The western farm ers send them here for Thanksgiving and Christmas by tho carload. In California they have flocks of turkeys numbering thou sands. They herd them like sheep. When the grain is harvested they let them foray in their immense wheat and barley fields, and the fattening does not cost anything. All of the early turkeys are sent to market in No vemlioV, and the later ones aro kept till holi day time. The early ones from the west come alive, and are killed here; but, after cold weather sets in, they are killed and plucked where they are raised." "Where are the best turkeys raised F' "In Connecticut, where many large varie ties are raised. There is one odd thing about turkeys. Tho more one weighs tho more it will bring a pound, and there will be no end of them this year." New York Mail and Express. A Lawyer's Good Lucie. A former Ilarrisburger who once held a state office, and is now a resident of Phila delphia, was a lawyer by profession, and, after leaving tho service of the state, he settled in a county which was then greatly excited over the discovery of oil within its borders. Hero ho hung out his shingle and waited for clients. Sometimes they came, but often they didn't, and his funds grew lower and lower until at last it was a question of bread and butter for him and his family. Sittinir in his oflice one day with his head be tween his hands, cursing his hard luck and wondering whether life was worth living, not a cent in his pocket and nothing to eat, no was disturbed by the entrance of an acquaint ance, who asked him to draw up an agree ment relating to the lease or some laua ana the sinking of an oil well. "I'll do it if you pay me," said the lawyer. "Now, see here," said thoiian, "you know I have no ready money, but if you draw up these papers I'll give you an interest in the well." "I won't do it," said tho lawyer, bluntly; "you have no money and aro fast on tho road to the poorhouse. No, I won't help you 1" "But you must," persisted the man ; "you can do it. It won't cost you a cent, and you must do it. Go ahead now. If I lose it is nothing out of your pocket. Draw up these papers, you've nothing else to do." Well, tho lawyer, to get rid of the man, drew up the agreements, and took as his pay an interest in the oil well. AVhat happened? The oil well was a gusher, and the thick, greasy fluid poured out over the derrick and made tho poor devils who were putting down the well fairly howl with glee. The lawyer was on hand, just as excited as anybody eke. and the very first chance he got he sold out for $ 17,000 cash. With his money in his hand he hastened home and told his wife his good fortune and they both rejoiced. "And now, mother," said he to his wife, "let's get out of this." And they lit out for Philadelphia. Ilarris bnrg Telegraph. . A Story About Beecher. Abraham Lincoln once told a good story alxnit Henry Ward Beecher, who, dressed in very common clothes, was studying human nature as exhibited in the highways and by ways of New York. In the course of his philosophic peregrinations ho went into a mock auction shop. He stood a wliile on en tering, and reflected, doubtless, how any one could be so lost to all sense of truth and hon esty as the auctioneer in question,-endeavoring to palm off his worthless trash to the in experienced in city ways as good and valua ble, and finally the auctioneer called out: "Mr. Beecher, why don't you bidT He was greatly astonished, as can be imagined, at finding himself known in this place, and, as he had supposed, in his purposely care less dress. He immediately left, and tn rtod for the residence of one of the members of the church in the neighborhood, and requested him, as an act of kindness, to go down and inquire of that person who had sold himself to Satan for the love of gain how it was he knew him in his disguise. The neigh bor kindly consented, and on entering tho "Peter Funk" shop he addressed tho auc tioneer: "How ispt that you know Henry Ward Beecher so well as to bo able to recognize him in his disguise f "How do I know him? Why, I have been a prominent member of his congregation for the last five years, and lease the fifth pew from the front!" Ben: Per ley Poore's Letter. The "Thirteen" Superstition. The superstition that the number thirteen is unlucky received a severe blow in New York the other day when pilot boat No. 13 was launched on a Friday. The number thirteen was connected with the craft ill every possible way. Her number is thirteen, thirteen members of the Thirteen club were present, she was' launched at 4:13, there are thirteen letters in her name, she has thirteen berths, she was launched on the 13th day of the month, sea calendar, she is to have a crew of thirteen men. San Francisco Argonaut. An Old Virginia &aw. A relic of the ancient time was revived in Virginia recently, when counsel for a man about to be tried for murder asked that the indictment be quashed because the foreman of the grand jury that returned it was the owner of a grist milL The old law forbade the possessor of a mill from serving on a jury. Nashville American. They Are Dead. Tho action of Governor Oglesbv yester day, in commuting the death sentence of .Michael Schwab and Samuel Fielden life sentences in the penitentiary, can to lar rdly be criticised, conscientiously, bv any thinking person. Governor Oglesby's uation for the past ten days has been exceedingly cnibarasin: one. AVith the lives of seven men, who had been convicted of conspiracy and murder, at is disposal, two of whom could be look ed upon as not being so guilty us their companions and receiving appeals daily for mercy.

The time set for the execution of the other rive men was 1 1 :54 this morn ing, but Louis Lingg's suicide yester day left but four, August Spies, Al bert P. Parsons,Adolph Fisher andGeorge Engle to suffer the pennly of the law. Th ! news was spread on our streets at noon to-day that the four anarchists were hanged and dead. This probably ends the great case of nnarchy in Amrica, yet th re are fears that it is only the begin ning of great trouble, but we beleive an.l hope peace'and harmony will follow their execution. Typhoid Fever- Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 11. The State Hoard of Health continues to re Cttiye reports of the general prevalence of typhoid fever throughout the state. The accounts that have been published about it in certain counties are exasrjrerat ed, but still there are many cases in al most every part of the state, and many deaths are reported. It seems to be get ting worse instead of better. The health officers think that a series of heavy, soaking rains would do nisre to improve the genend health of the state than any thing else. A special meeting of the school board of tins city was called for last night to take action to prevent the spread of the fever among pupils. At all scliool houses surface-water wells will be tilled up, and wells will be driven to the second or third vein of water, for use of the pupils. Earthquake .in Italy. liOMK, Nov. 11.

The Cerman Crown Prlnco- San Kemo, Novemlier 1 1 . The greatest anxiety is still felt about the Crown Prince. A consultation was held to day, which lasted several hours, thephysiciaus present beiug Morrell Mackenzie, Prof. Ichroettcr, of Vienna; Dr. Krau.-s, of Ber lin, and Dr. Noritz Schmidt, of Frank fort. I am authorized to state that all the medical authorities present agreed that the patient's condition is m-eh worse but could not agree whether the ailment was cancerous or of a less malignant type. Morrell Mackcn.V himself stated to his colleagues that although he was unable to satisfy himself with precision on the subject, he felt, ncvcrthelcss.'that another internal cutting operation would huve to be effected this week. The result of the consultation was commun:c:.tcd to the Crown Prince, who received the bad news with calm resignation. The Crown Prince, in spite of his d.-mgeror.s condi tion, lo-ks as if in good health, and is in excellent spirits. General Grant's Fame will always grow brighter wi'i age.
