A Sad CaK.
Deputy Sheriff Rothwell, of Knox
county, passed through the city Sun
day en his way to Lincoln, having in
charge Leonard M. Kemple, whom he
was taking to the insane hospital.
The patient was a pitiable looking
object, his face and eyes being badly
burned, caused by the explosion of
powder, which some heartless wretch
es had mixed with smoking tobacco,
then induced him to fill his pipe with
it. Mr. Kemple is a member of the
G. A. E. and was a good soldier dur
ing the war, was a member of the 6.h
Iowa infantry, and experienced the
hardships of rebel prisons. .He has
had trouble with a wife and step-son,
losing in the tranasaction the property
he had acquired under the soldiers'
homestead law. At the present time
he has a pre-emption in cither Brown
or Knox counties, which may be
jumped during his stay at Lincoln,
and it would be but an act of friend
ship and charity, and perhaps loyalty,
for some of the members of the G. A.
R. in Nebraska to interest themselves
enough in the case of this member to
see that he is properly cared for and
that his other interests are not jeopar
dized by reason of his confinement in
the insane hospital. He iB not a rav
ing maniac, and his case may not be
incurable, although he may be detain
ed long enough to lose all ho had if
somebody doesn't look after it. O.
Republican.
The bchooner Shoters arrived at
Key West, Fla., the other night, pass
ing two revenue cutters and the flag
ship Tennessee, and proceeded to the
upper harbor, where she was seized
by Collector Wicker, who placed in
spectors on board and hoisted the
revenue flag at the masthead. There
were three people aboard, two col
ored men and one Cuban. The negro
in charge 6aid he was engaged to pilot
the Shoters to cape Florida, and that
on rounding Fort Taylor Agnero told
him, with drawn pistol, that he must
take the party to the Cuban coast.
Reports vary regarding the number
of filibusters. They are 6aid to be
between twelve aud twenty. The
Shoters are paid to have had a small
number of carbines.
It appears that some people are
never satisfied unless they know the
religious belief of all the public men
of the country. To gratify this de
sire some one has compiled or guessed
at the followiug : President Arthur,
Secretary Frelinghuysen and Attor
ney General Brewster are Episcopa
lians. Secretary Folger is a Presby
terian. Secretary Chandler is a Uni
tarian. Secretary Lincoln attends the
Presbyterian church, as does Post
master General Gresham, who, it is
said, is of tho orthodox stamp, while
Secretary Teller is a Methodist of the
Rocky Mountain quality.
C. Bluett and W. McLain, of Taus
lock, Ontario, detectives, arrested at
Seward, Neb., the other day C.Azeher,
charged with forgery and obtaining
money on false pretenses. He be
longed to a religious sect called
"Ornish," who don't believe in wear
ing buttons on their clothing and
stead have their clothes made to
fasten with hooks aud eyes, making
of him a traveling curiosity, and by
this means he was traced and finally
captured. He will be examined and
an application made for an extradi
tion warrant.
Word has been received by the
postmaster-general that after the 15th

pany will run a fast mail traiu from
Ogden westr covering the distance
between Ogden and San Francisco in

the fast mail system between New
York and San Francisco, and save
twenty - four hours between these
points.
E. F. Herdman, government geolo
gist engaged on a survey of Western
Australia, saw a wounded 6nake
which had been attacked by black
ants, bite itself twice in the side, from
the effects of which it soon died. He
believes it to have been a clear case of
deliberate suicide, in order to escape
the pain and suffering it was com
pelled to bear.
It is said that twenty persons, call
ing themselves the White Man Re
publican party, met the other day in
convention at Atlanta, Ga. A motion
to call the new organization the Whig
party was tabled. Arthur's adminis
tration was indorsed, and the Federal
officials in the State were censured.
Maybury's adverse report on the
joint resolution proposing a constitu
tional amendment to give woman the
right of suffrage has been adopted in
the house judiciary committee and
will be reported to the house by
Reed, Brown (Iud.,) and E. B. Tay
lor (Ohio).
The bill to aid public schools was
amended in the senate and passed.
It appropriates $7,000,000 to be dis
tributed among the states in propor
tion to illiteracy, ou a basis of the
census of 1880, the payment of the
money to extend over a series of eight
years.
Kind words don't cost anything.
ThiB is what Miss Porter, a worthy

The Baltimore Sun's correspondent
reports S. J. Tilden as saying : "I do

peace and quiet which I enjoy here
for' four years of toil and strife. I
am 70 years old and I cannot do it."
Mb. Hoar in the senate presented

of western states connected with the
national league praying that a pen
sion of at least $5 per month be given
each honorably discharged soldier
aad sailor of the late war.

Second Jleetlsr.
Four weeks ago last Sunday even
ing was held the first of a series of
union meetings having as their object
the discussion of the evils of the
liquor traffic, and the best means of
working its abolition; at least we
judge this is the object, from the
tenor of the speeches.
The second meeting was held last
Sunday evening at the M. E. church,
and, notwithstanding the weather, the
church was full of attentive hearers.
We have not space to give anything
but the merest summary of thoughts
touched upon. The first speaker,
z. c. BUSH,
discussed the question, Shall we li
cense? Temperance was defined as
the moderate use of things harmless
and total abstinence from things
harmful. The bible teaches temper
ance and nature requires it. Intem
perance, said the speaker, is a crime
against God, ourselves and others.
Selling liquors as a beverage, also a
crime, Hab., 2,-15. Babylon was des
troyed in part, because of her intem
perance, Isa., 51,-7. It is not a legiti
mate business because it does not
render an equivalent; the article sold
does not cost a tenth of what is paid
for it. It does not meet a want, but
merely gratifies and fosters a passion.
It benefits one at the expense of many.
The legislature of Pennsylvania, in
1873 repealed the local-option law,
and the records showed 50 per cent,
increase iu crime. He declared it
would be cheaper for this community
to pension the saloon keepers at $1,000
a year each and have no traffic, a
saving in dollars and cents. Shall we
license a custom that fosters extrava
gance, poverty, ignorance and crime ?
Legalize a crime and give it respecta
bility ! There are different mode's of
giving license: by neglecting to en
force the law ; by social recognition.
Some extracts touching upon the
injurious effects of whiskey and beer
upon the human economy were read
by C. J. Garlow. The subject of
rev. o. v. bice
was The Saloon.
It is the function of all govern
ments, general or local, not only to
restrain aud correct evils, but to pre
vent them. The best good of all, for
the present and the future, must be
promoted. This must be done, cveu
if the present rights of the individual
have to be sacrificed. Hence it is the
duty of each citizen to consider every
iustitution seeking a place iu the com
munity, as to its bearings upon the
general good. The saloon seeks a
place in our communities, aud the
commonwealth provides legal protec
tion for it. 13 it a good or a bad
thing? The answer must bo that it is
bad, for the following, among many
reasons : Let it be understood that I
speak with malice toward no man but
with charity for all, am a stranger
alike to the proprietors, keepers and
patrons of saloons here. It brings to
and continues in the community an
undesirable class of citizens. It pre
vents from coming and drives away
the better classes. The saloon is the
enemy of good government. How to
rescue our municipalities from the
ruinous rule of the vicious classes, is
the question of the hour. The saloon
is the strong hold and efficient instru
ment of the vicious and unprincipled.
It is the enemy of the individual. It
is hard for many to resist its tempta
tion. Many do not. It is altogether
a trap and a snare. It is the active
foe of every institution working for
the moral and spiritual elevation of
man, opposes the work of the church,
and destroys the soul. We all bear
responsibility, inasmuch as the saloon
depends for its existence upon our
sentiment, vote, or official act. In the
hour of the judgment we shall have
to give strict account for the attitude
we assume, and especially for all the
aid and comfort we afford this insti
tution of death.
MB. hullhorst.
Whilst endorsing all that has been
said, yet I would like to draw atten
tion to the fact that from sin, generic
ally and specifically, there is only One
mighty to save. Intemperance is only
one of the many symptoms of an ab
normal, sinful state of the soul. Lop
ping off the branches will not do;
destroy the root the evil heart.
Christ is the mighty One to chauge
the heart. Behold the Lamb of God,
that has atoned for the sins of the
world! Ob, that 1 could point you to
him I Ye young men, who are hav
ing a hard time fighting your appe
titesthere on Calvary is the only
place to get pardon and peace, and as
a result, the power to resist sin. It
does little good to stop a leak, when
the bottom is out! The 6iu of sins iB
to trample under foot the Son of God,
counting the blood by which we are
bought a common and ordinary thing.
If the individual is to be saved, if
Columbus is to be saved, if the nation,
the world, is to be saved it will
never be done by ignoring the only
Redeemer and Saviour known among
men and ordained of God. This is
not a matter to be handled smilingly
or halt jocosely it is a matter of life
or death. Let us not play with it.
Ob, it is a serious thing. How pre
cious is one singlo soul! All the
material universe balanced against it
as nothing. All that is not of Faith
in Jesus Christ is sin. AH morality,
however "good" relatively, is not
such absolutely. Self righteousness
is a very poor shape to appear before
the Just God. God resisteth the
proud, but is merciful to the humble
and penitent. Such we must become,
before we can expect God to deliver
us from the curse of intemperance.
The next meeting is to be held May
4th, at the Congregational church.

The Clarks Messenger reports that
a cow in the vicinity that had been
bitten by a mad dog had to be killed
the other day, and that reveral more
cattle will probably suffer the same
fate from the same cause.
Schuyler was stirred from center to
circumference the other night by the
ringing of the fire bell and the report
that a child was lost. The citizens
turned out of their beds en nia?e to
find in a short time that the child had
concluded to stay all night with some
little neighbor friends.
A fatal stabbing affray occurred in
Madison county, near Emrrick post
office, on the 2d hist. From the Mad
ison Chronicle wo condense the fol
lowing particulars : "On the night in
question, Chas. McKalluin. the mur
dered mau, his brother Hubbard, and
Chas. Willmore, the man who did the
cutting, iu company with two men
named Hall and Carroll, attended a
dance in the neighborhood. They al!
drank more or less beer during t he
eveniug, but it is claimed that none of
the party were drunk when they
started home along towards midnight.
Charlie McKalluin and Willmore ran
a race with their horses, and got
into a quarrel as to who won. From
words they came to blows, aud in the
fight which ensued McKalluin was
cut with a knife across the abdomen,
just below the navel, his iuwards
protruding from the horrible gash.
He was also stabbed about the face.
His brother wanted to take Willmore
off of Charlie but the other meu
wouldn't let him, as they said "they
wanted to see the fun," so we are
told. McKallum lived just twenty
four hours after being wounded.
Willmore gave himself up and i3 now
in our county jail. He is a native of
Huntsvillc, Ala., and is about 21
years old. The murdered man, Mc
Kallum, was 27 years of age."
