The Mpirit of Kril.
Ileal life with its dark shadows
and bright sunshine to many people
is a strange jnystcry. Those who
have for years cultivated the dear
est friendships, have in a thought
less and unguarded moment com
mitted some wrong, either in act or
word, that has forever sundered
such friendships, and turned the
highest esteem and even love into
the most bitter hatred, lasting dur
ing the remainder of their lives.
Life, it seems, is so constituted that
no amount of investigation can with
certainty solve its mystery. Per
sons with similar acquirements, and
even of a high order of intellect and
personal accomplishments, as well
as those in the humbler walks of
life are all liable to meet with the
same shipwreck of friendships and
affections, and the remainder of their
lives rendered miserable. The per
son who deliberately plans and ex
ecutes orders for destroying friend
ship's home, whether between
ordinary friends or those pledged
under a more sacred form to love
and cherish each other while life
shall last, or invade that home which
has been formed and matured under
the higher pledge, is engaged in a
most wicked and diabolical work,
only a few removes from the crime
of deliberate and premeditated mur
der. In one case the life of the vic
tim is ended to the scenes of this
life, but in the other many lives iu
that sacred domestic circle are com
pelled to live on with misgivings on
every hand of life's success, and
mistrust of every professed friend.
"Who is wise enough to solve the
mystery, and provide a remedy ?
The case of Lawrence charged
with poisoning his father some time
ago was still in progress on the
23th ult., and testimony up to that
date had been given to make the
case exceedingly interesting to all
parties concerned. Young Law
rence produced evidence of a good
character. Prof. Aughey gave in
his testimony respecting his analys
is, resulting in discovering enough
prusBic acid in the liver to establish
the poisoning by that drug. Mr.
Mercer gave his testimony, giving a
pathelogical opiniou as to the cause
of death in a hypothetical case sim
ilar to that of Lawrence, which
probably could have resulted from
cholera or prussic acid or probably
by apoplexy or nervous exhaustion.
Prof. Haynes, of Chicago, professor
of chemistry at Kush Medical col
lege, an expert, after hearing all the
testimony stated that he regarded
Prof. Aughey's analysis "as a failure,
claiming that it was a very improp
er test and not sufficient to prove
the presence of prussic acid as ad
ministered, but that in the test en
ough was gathered from the chem
icals used by Prof. Aughey to pro
duce prussic acid. Ilayncs admit
ted on the stand that ho had assist
ed the attorneys for the defense in
preparing their questions. On the
31st ult., the case was submitted to
the jury and after being out about
one hour returned into court with a
verdict of not guilty.
A stranger who applied at a
farmer's house by the name of Brad
ley at Clear Lake, Texas, on the
night of the let, was granted the
privilege of remaining over night.
About midnight two men entered
the house, be supposing them to be
members of the family; soon, how
ever, ho heard the cries of murder
and looking through the blinds saw
Mrs. Bradley with her throat cut.
The stranger with a six-shooter
sprang to the door and fired on the
robbers, killing both of them. On
investigation the robbers and mur
derer! turned out to be a Mrs.
Pruett and daughter, the former 60
years old and the owner of consid
erable property. The object of the
robbers was supposed to be money,
which was believed to be in the
possession of Mrs. Bradley, her hus
band being from home at the time.
A shoesiaker by the name of
Hoffmeinster, at Louisville, Neb.,
on the night of the 4th shot and
killed Ambrose Fcidcrline. Boys
had been in the habit of annoying
Hoffmeinster by breaking his win
dows, etc., and to bo ready to re
ceive the boys he loaded his double
barreled shot-gun and seeing Feid
erline in the yard mistook him for
the unruly boys and fired, the charge
taking effect in tho right breast,
killing him instantly. The deceased
leaves a wife and three children.
It is a sad result to an unlawful act,
and proves beyond doubt that it is
always much better to apply to the
law, which gives a peaceful remedy
in all cases.
After the ceremonies of decora
tion at Lawrence cemetery, Md.,
had been concluded, a most dis
graceful riot occurred, which is said
originated by several colored men
orderiug drinks at a bar erected
near tho cemetery, and refusing to
pay for them. The police attempted
to maintain order, and were assault
ed by the men, numbering 400. One
man was killed, and a dozen others
injured, but not fatally.

Rising City.
Editor Journal : Since I last
wrote, a part of the corn cribbed
here has beeu shelled aud hauled to
David City by teams, because the
freight on the O. & R. V. It. R. was
so much higher than on the L. & X.
W. Another peculiarity of the af
fair was, it was hauled from here to
the city of David for three cents per
bushel, a distance of twelve miles,
and many would have to wait all
day for a load at that price. Lots of
money in such a job. "Was there not?
Tho Hon. F. Englehard has had
another runaway, a broken leg and
sprained ankle this timo; and we
think the Dr. had better trade off
that "republican" team before they
break his neck.
Decoration day was a rare good
time here. Sixty teams marched in
procession from the city to the burial
ground, aud many other loaded
teams met them there. The exer
cises were opened with prayer by
the G. A. R. Post Chaplain, singing
followed ; afterwards an eloquent
oration by Dr. Engelhard ; then largo
crosses trimmed with evergreen and
choice flowers, wero placed on each
grave of the buried soldiers, and cut
flowers were strewn on them, until
they were nearly hidden. Nearly
every member of the G. A. R. Post
was present, and fully GOO men,
women and children formed a
"grand tribute of respect" to the
departed soldiers by their presence
on our national decoration day.
May our memory on that day al
ways be fresh.
"Wc have had some nice rains, and
less wind, for which we are devout

small grain ground has been planted

building is now in process of erec

ket; so improvements still progress.
Mr. Editor, we are very anxious
about the "come out" of that large
crowd now assembling at Chicago,
but before these lines are in print,
we shall all know the decision there,
and I think that decision will either
be the death of the Republican party
or give it renewed strength and
vitality, to still combat for the right.
