The editor of the Independent (Kan.) Stnr sued a delinquent subscriber for $11. The delinquent claimed he never- subscribed for 1 he paper, and did not propose to pay for it. The judge in­ structed the jury that if the evidence disclosed the fact that the delinquent h id taken the paper from the postoffice, pr caused it to be taken, they should find for the plaintiff. It cost the man nearly flOO to settle what $11 would have paid. It pays to be honest, even with a printer.--Kx. FROM our exchanges in southern and central Illinois we notic« that potatoes are wonderfully plenty and cheap in that section, although it is a question about their keeping qualities. The wet weather may cause general decay. The best qual­ ity are sold for 25 cents a bushel, and there are places where they can be bought for 10 cents. The crop is so heavy that even lower prices are anticipated. One dealer said a day or two since: "Every farmer that comes in tells of the large yield of potatoes. Before long the price will hardly justify people in digging them and no doubt the farmers will Pay forks and put them in fields, bearing the sign: 'Dig all you want, but please dont take the fork.'" T. J. DACY KILLED Timothy J. Dacy,one of the oldest and most widely known citizens of northern Illinois, for the past thirty-four years a dealer in agricultural implements in Woodstock, was struck by the St. Paul vestibuled limited train at 8:1.'1 Satur­ day evening and died a few minutes later at the office of Dr. YV indmueller, whither he was conveyed. Mr. Dacy had just come out of an adjoining restaurant, where he had purchased a box of cigars to present to the members of Company G on their return from camp at Spring­ field, and was struck by the train that brought them home in attempting to cross the track on the way to the- ar­ mory. Mr. Dacy was 58 years of age and he had amassed a fortune. He was mar­ ried to a daughter of the late Niell Don­ nelly. He leaves a widow, three sons and one daughter to mourn his IOSB. It doesn't-matter much whether sick headache, biliousness, indigestion and constipation are caused by neglect or by unavoidadle circumstances, DeWitts Lit­ tle Early Risers will speedily cure them all. J.A.Story, His Wile. d, in this eouuty, most dastardly it it has ever heen The details are aud fiendish as ion, aud we. can a brief outline of the facts, learned partly from the Woodstock Seni'mel of last week, from the murdered woman herstlf before her death as told to her sister.jand from the testimony of the neighbors, as brought out at the coroner's inquest. The Sentinel says: Last Saturday "Dick" Gainor was brought down from Greenwood for mal­ treating his wife, and was placed under bonds to keep the peace. At that time it was not Jknown how serious was the iujury Mrs. Gainor had sustained, but some of the neighbors learned that she was in a serious condition, and Dr. Wind- mueller was sent for. He found her per­ son frightfully lacerated and her head so badly bruised that her condition was really critical. Her eyes were swelled shut and erysipelas had set in,and it was not possible to tell what the- outcome might be. Warrants were issued for the arrest of Gainor, and he was brought before Jus­ tice L. H. Jones for a preliminary exam -. ination, Monday- Through his attorney, F. R Jack man, he waived examination and t he justice placed his bond atf 1,000 for his appearance before the grand jury. Failing to pbtain the required bond, he was placed in charge of Sh^raff Eekert: It appears from the statement of the murdered woman, made- to -her sister, that Gainor came home drunk on Satur­ day, bringing with him a supply of whisky, and as was usual at such times, the brute in his nature was predominant. This, we believe, was on the 18th of July. He continued Uis drunken orgies during the night and on Sunday morning was fit, as it proved, for any brutish act. His wife, seeing he was in a quarrelsome mood, and having before received the abuse of his drunken brawls, attempted to escape to the neighbors, but was espied by Gainor, who overtook her, knocked her down and then dragged her back into the house by the hair of her head, litterally tearing the scalp from the bone. Here what occurred for three days in only known by the condition in which she was found, and her statement to her sister before her death. Her body was one mass of bruises from head to feet, her stomach and thighs punctured by an old file, her head and face cut and gashed in a fearful manner and her eyes completely closed. In this manner she lay for three days without food or water, this drunken brute kicking and pounding her as the fit seem to come upon him. In this condition she was found and a doc­ tor sent for but to no avail, as she died on Saturday, Aug. 1st. Such are briefly the facts, as we understand them, but there yet remains much to be told that is unfit for publication. The cause of this can be told in one word, "whisky." Gainor is a low drunk­ en bloat, Gfi^l by all the laws of the state and common decency should never have hern sold a drop of liquor. Rut he got it and it is said has repeatedly pounded and aftused his wife, making her life a perfect Hell upon earth,but this time the rtends seemed to have taken complete possession of him, and the acts which ended his poor wile's life would have put a Comanche Indian to shame. Gainor is now in Woodstock jail, to­ gether with a. Miss Hartwell and George Parker, who were arrested as accessor­ ies, but what the evidence is against the two latter we have not learned. That Gainor will get meted out to him the punishment he so richly deserves, and that speedily too, is the wish of all good citizens. MARTHA ALZOAH PARKER. vV'as born in Lion, Oakland county, Michigan, August 20, 1851, Came to Greenwood, III. with her parents inT854._ Has lived in the home residence until "Saturday, August 1, 185)6. She was married to Richard Gainor January 10, 1886. Her funeral services were held in the M. E. church Sunday, Aug, 2, 1896. Rev. Nickle preached the discourse found­ ed on the text, "What shall 1 do to be savi d? " He made some telling remarks on the curse of intemperance, knowiug that to be the cause of her death. Her husl>and-^was under the influence of whisky when he murdered his wife, a murder the details of which are too hor­ rible to put in print, She, like many another, had endured the abuse of that infernal wretch from the first to the last of her married life without complaining to her sister. She asked her before she died why she did not come to her with a complaint of her abuse, o Her reply was: "Oh, he would have killed me. He told me every time he was drunk and pound­ ed me that if I told you he would cut my throat." She said her only trust was iii Jesus. She did not want to live. She wanted to die aLd go to be with her father and mother. She was sure they were in Heaven and she wanted to be with them. That she always had a good home when they were alive for they were good to her. She said, "Father was a good man, so good to me after mother died. I never wanted for anything that he could supply. But it has been right the reverse since I was married." COM. DEVIL'S LAKE. Excursion to this wonderful and mys­ terious lake Thursday, Aug. 6. Round trip only $1.50. Leave Ringwood 7:32, A.

Ho gets an assortment of cheap, pdeketbooks, executes a bogus draft or two in the name of his intended vicfe-m^ puts in two or three counterfeit bills of large denomination, inserts a card with the name of his victim upon it, then, as­ suming an honest expression, visits the man he has selected as a victim, tells him he has found the pocketbook, dis­ playing the contents, and as the man's name was in the book he had hunted him up." Then he tells a little story of being very poor, and the victim almost iuvariabjy gives him $5 or $10 and takes the book and its contents. Of course he can say nothing when he" finds that he has been swindled. The man who thus returns lost money succeeds in catching several during a day. THE July Outlook offers its readers, a character-sketch of Wm. McKinley, by Murai Halstead, the famous- journalist and brilliant writer, whoso close ac­ quaintance with McKinley makes him eminently siiited to write just such an article as will make the (Jutlook's read­ ers feel that they have come to know tlx Republican candidate more directly than before. A large drawing by Gribayedoff of Mr. and Mrs. McKinley at home, and several studies of McKinley as an orator, at his desk, and so on, will illustrate Mr. Halstead's article. As a companion sketch will be a similar personal study ol the Democratic candidate for the Presi­ dency, Wui. J. Bryan, of Nebraska. Tht interest in the youngest man who ever stood before the public as a presidential andidato is naturally great, political onsiderations entirely apart.

Since 1878 there have been nine epi­ demics of dysentery in different parts of the country in which Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and Diarrhcea Remedy was used with perfect success. Dysentery, when epidemic, is almost as severe and danger­ ous as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the best efforts of the most skilled physicians have failed to check its ravages, this remedy, however, has cured the most malignant cases, both of children and adults, and under the most trying condi­ tions, which proves it to be the best med­ icine in the world for bowel complaints.
