Our great hive for them hss caused us to note some of the til fie re noes in the<u. First there is the grasping, hungry iulant. It grabs at everything aud never voluntarily lets go of anything. There Is the fighting infant, that lias lumps ov <r • ts ears where combative* ness is located. It is born with botlijf' fists doubled up. As so«nras tt ts ab<e It wrenches out its nurse's Int r, ham­ mers its brothers aud- sisters. When this kind of * baby grows up if it I a boy It g*ts appointed on the police loroe. Startling as It may seem, po­ liceman were once babies. Last but not least is the good natured baby. It laughs aud crows when he Is awake, and at night It sleeps like a man who has paid a year's subscription in ad vauce lor his newspaper. This baby smiles in its sleep because angels are whispering to it. Who (does not. love such a baby ? THE following particulars of the burning of the house aud the death ol Leouard Doolittle. of which we spoke last week, we find lu the Waukegan Ocuette ot last Saturday. "At about two o'clock In the morning Mr. Doolittle was awakened and discovered that his house %as all in flames. The la uiiy wetc alarmed and ha J time just to escap- with but little clothing. Mr. Doolittle after getting his family out went back Into the building aud seized bis bed, which was on the first floor, and carried it out. Upon getting out he discovered that Instead of bringing out all the bed he had ouly secured the feather bed on top, aud went back again, It is' supposed that he had some considerable mouwy between the feather beu and the uuder mattress and that he wished to save It. How> ever that >uay be, he was evidently overcome by the smoke or heat, or both, and perished iu the flames. No cry was heard, «od the deceased was probably stricken do vn by inhal >ng the pine siiM ke. with never even a struggle for life. The family were borritfed by his fate, though they could do nothing. The night was Intensely cold, with a blizzard prevailing and the family, cousistlug of wife and Tour cuildren, dearly perUhed from the cold before the? reached the shelter of the neighbors. Tho house and contents were a total loss. As soon as the lire wassi-.bdued sea-ch was made tor the remains and they were found, badly charred, In the cel'ar lying face down* ward U|>on the springs ol the bed with his hands extended. This position showed that *ie desired something-- probably money--in the bed. Near one of hlsvhands wasan amount of j£old coin that was scarcely tarnished by the fire. The aflalr was a most terrible one-- a tragic end of a life. The deceased was an old resident of ihe county and town, having lived . there for over 35 years, and he was one of the prominent and wealthy citizeM of the town. He leaves a*wlfe aud several childreu to mourn his loss. Four of his chl dren were living U home at the time of his death.

It was reported that Mr. St. Clair had vlolate^hls obligation, and was shlppiijgji^lk ten cents less than the assocl «tion price. A committee wa* appointed to wait oo him. The following, received from Chicago, was Introduced and read: "NOTICE TO MILK DEALERS.-A meet­ ing of Milk Dealers will b-> held at the Lecture Rooms of the M. E. Church Block.corner of v ashington and Clark, oa Friday evening. Jan. 15th, at 7:30 p. m. The meeting is (or the purpose of talking over the milk busloess in general,and the necessity of a Union, hvery man engaged In selling milk should come. Signed. D HAYS. WM THOMPSON, J. W. KEK. JOHN S »L(W, J.J Mix, D. Dbff, V >> _ Committee^ E.J. HOYS, Secretary. On the reading of the above a motion was made and carried that a committee of five from the Nunda Association of Shippers be sent to the above named meetings Wm. Hofiman, John Palmer, Joe Courthers, Wm. Plnneow, and an­ other German, were selected as such committee. On Saturday morning a large number of shippers met at the same place. The committee appointed to wait upon Mr. St Clair reported that they had seen him an I endeavored to Induce him to live up to his agree ments with the association--but with­ out avail, tie stated to them that hl« milk man In Chicago refused to give the association price, and that i.e and hh son depended wholly on their milk for their receipts, that lie must tell for what he could get, and could not aflord to sell to the factory. After a good de%l of discussion, in which the deter mination to stick by the association and their pr(ce3 -van unanimously de­ clared, the same committee was con­ tinued, with Instructions to Inform Mr. St. Clair that the association would give hltn until uext Tues lay morning to comply with his undertakings win* the association, and that 11 he did not then have a oon tract lor one dollar and twenty cents. Ills milk wpuld not be allowed to the milk car. This may seem harsh measures, hut It Is insisted that Mr. St. Clair has signed he as<o da Ion agreements and contributed money, aud that heretofore he h>o> always fav.ipMl the mo*i stremmn* m-aMireswlrh a»-y who violated tln-ir pledges And that Just at thN time |i is important 'hat ihe iule<* be -ttictl.v entorced and the organlzxtio:, be k> pt intact. The committee appointed to go to Chicago reported that they were present; that thu feeling among the f'lilcago milk dealers Se«-m*d to be In favor ot a sec ret association. That they seemed to want to rid themselves •f uon pay.ng patrons,etc. The meet Ing waa not entirely harmonious and seemed much like « -Town Meetin>»." It was known tht' a delegation or tar mers from Nunda were present, and that undoubtedly cast something of a damper over the meeting. Mr. Calmer says tliey let the committee severely alone. The Nunda association ad journ >d to meet at same place Monday morning to 'tear a report trotn the St. <71 ilr committee. The association of milk shippeis met again on Monday morning. Mr. St. Clair was present, and the matter of shipping under price received a ventil­ ation. It appeared that Mr, St Clair, instead of being the only man who was violating rules, was the only one who was manly enough to state frankly that he was doing so, while It was charged that very tew members were actually getting one dollar and twenty. After much discussion it was almost unanimously voted ta sustain the price as fix'-d. and a committee wai appoint ed to ascertain who were shipping un der price and report t'ie same. Then rhe flr-t step was taken, as your corres pondent believes, in the eftectunl remedying of the great difficulty. A committee of three, consist lug of Geo. Ford. V^in. Huffman and Henry Keller, was appointed to exami ne and report a plan of establishing a factory at this place through which all the milk of tliis section should be handled, to the end that the milk dealers In Chicago should have but one mail to deal with lu buying milk, aud all that could uot be so sold to advantage would be manufiiclured here. The milk pro •lucers wou'd then be In a posltiou to fix and maintain prices. The meeting adjourned subject to call of the corres­ ponding secretary, who was instructed to correspond with the different ship* ping associations to ascertain how far their members are standing by the associ tlon. We now have about a foot of snoW on the level, whh more coming. The M. E. Church are holding a series of evening m^etiigs. Tne Presiding Eider, Rev.
