He studied law atLym e, and moved to Ohio after h is ad­m ission to the bar. Ho practiced with great success at Maum ee C ity and Toledo. He w as elected to the Ohio L e g is ­lature in 1849, but subsequent to that experi­ence be resolutely declined all political and Ju­dicial preferm ent until be had bu ilt up a great practice in the h 'gh e r branches of h is profes­sion. In 1871 ho was counsel for the United States In the Geneva arb itration on the A labam a claims. H e was president of the Ohio constitutional convention In 1878. and In M arch of the fo llow ing year P re sident G rant nom inated him for Ch ief Justice of the S u ­preme Court, the Senate confirming.

"D o yon like music, Mr. E th rlng?” she asked, half abruptly . B ut w ithout aw aiting an answer, Llll so tted herself and began playing. For LUl's soul was bound up, so to speak, in n in sla I t was h er life—and love, then. So from h er slim finger tips flowed harm onies suoh os the fashionable d raw ing­room know s no t of.

I t BO happened th a t It was in the tw ilig h t of an E aster Sabbath th a t E th riu g tr ie d to express Bomathlng of th is to Llll herself.

I can n o t re p e a t bis words, of course B u t I know th a t be told h er th a t she, and she alone, w as the one w om an in the whole w orld for U m , in such m anner th a t she fe lt in tu itive ly th a t th is was no passing fancy.

Trem bling w ith s trange confusion, Llll stood w ith dow ncast eyes and crim son cheeks, as her lover, who had v en tu red to take her slim hands In fils own, plead, as a m an m ight p lead , for bis Ufa

“ B ut I have know n you so sho rt a tim e, Mr. E th ring ,” she said, In a low and ra th e r troubled voice, " I can n o t tell my own h ea rt In th is th in g .”

“ I do n o t ask your answ er now ,” he said, gravely. “ God forbid. Perhaps I should n o t have spoken so soon. Y ou know com ­paratively n o th ing of mo save th a t I have beeu in business and m et ivitb heavy losses B u t le t mo say th is To-m orrow I go hack to th e world. Six m onths hence I will ask your answer. If you say, come—th a t Is enough. Shall It be s o l”

There w as silence In the room for a mo­m e n t E th rin g fancied be could h e ir the quickened beating of the young girl’s heart as she stood m otionless before him in the half darkness.

* I t shall bo as you w ish,” she said. And softly w ithdraw ing her hands from his clasp she glided away.

Llll was n o t one to w ear her h ea rt upon h er sleeve She took up her burden of du ty as of yore, bu t as tho days w en t by after E thring had gone, Llll was vaguely con­scious th a t Bomething was m issing o u t of her Ufa Yet a t the sam e time i t was os though life Itself was tak ing on new b rig h t­ness and lieauty. As she sa t a t the old piano In the tw ilight, som etim es her lijis would shape Into the tender sm ile w hich is the re ­flex of happy thougb ta And then from the w hite keys cam e Im provisations of w onder­ful sw eetness and beauty .

April and May w ith bud and prom ise gave way to the ir sister m onths ot blossoms and fulfillm ent. One m ore m onth an d —her le tte r would come?

I t was Mra M errick, th e rec to r’s wife, w ho handed her the New York paper con­tain ing a ra th e r ex tended notice of the m arriage of R obert T. E thrlng, the young m illionaire broker, whose successful recoup from his trem endous losses last w inter will be rem em bered, to Mra Rose A nstrath, the charm ing society belle.

" So s trange he shou ldn’t have sen t yon cards, dear,” she said. Innocently. And Llll, who had sum m oned nil her pride and cour­age, very quietly replied th a t it was x>er- haps an o v ers ig h t And having com pleted her neighborly call, w en t hom a

When Llll g o tto hfi: room and had locked herself In she did n o t cry or fa in t She cam e from different stock. Llll only th rew off her h a t and fell on h er knees by the bedside, burying her w hite face In her handa The agonizing cry whloh w eilt up to Heaven was only in tellig ib le to 'Him whose ear is alw ays open.

A Letter froa onr Friend, Charley HUler.

Tbbnton, H itohcockO o .’I N eb ., March 17th, 1888.

Dear Friettd James:—^Aa, I often have thought you would Hke to hear from this part of the ' west, what I am doing and bow I like the country, I will attem pt to tell you and ray friends as plainly as I can. As to farming, I have tried it one year, and, although the

5round was new and the season very ry. the corn went from nothing to 45

bushels to the aore*, wheat, iiuout 15 bushda; oats, 80 bushels. This spring the ground is in splendid condition, we having had plenty of rain; but little enow to speaR of until the first of this m onth, when five inches fell on the level, but it soon disappeared by the w arm sunshine. There has been no blizzards and the winter has not been

‘ cold; in fact the winter was very mild. jFuriners put in their wheat in February, b u t had to lay ofT from plowing one

> .jweek. Since the 1 0 th of February have. J.l^been at it egjtin in full blast, breaking

prairie. nhis .season will see this county well settled and nearly all t,Jie land broke up that is lit for farming purposes; there is some land near tlm rivers too rough and broken for farming purposes. I am located half-way be­tween the Republic and the Frenchman rivers, seven miles from Trenton, .stiven miles from I’alisade, twelve miles from Stratton, six miles from Beverley, anil fifteen miliis from Culbertson, .so yon see I have plenty of towns, which are all within easy reach. The land here is level, smooth and easy to work. On the divide wells are from 80 to 236 feet deepniii" well is 107 deep and has plenty of water. All wells have to reach u level under gi'ound, as the water supply is a sheet instead of springs. My well has six feet of water and we have drawn fifteen barrels as fast as we could draw it and made no impre.ssion. There are wells hei’e with but eighteen inches of water which cannot be pumped drj'. Wells need no wall or curb, only where »L vein of sand is struck. There is about seventy feet of rock, but it is not so hard and can work it easilj' v\dth a pick. After this year there will be a gri'at m any hogs and cattle fed here. I tidnk this the tinest country for cattle I ever saw, it can’t be beaten in the United States. The cattle look verj' nice and run on the wild buffalo grass, which cures in the fall—no corn or hay is fed, but plenty of them are now fit for beef. The roads can’t be beat in America, the en tire twelve months in the je a r they a re dry and smooth as a floor. My fam ily all enjoy the best of health and I think I have fully recovered from the asthma, as I have had no sign of it since comming into the State. I should have written .sooner but I wanted to test a bliz/.ard first, but have given up, as the}- seem to have gone to the eastern st.ites. Enclosed find $1..50, which plea.se api)ly on my subscription, and with best wishes I remain. Yours truly,

Not much can bo done with the grown-up people of the criminal classes, but the child crim inal comes first. The crim inal classes are called dirty, lazy and ugly. Of course they are. They are d irty because they have no spare heat to le t go; lazy, because the muscles are weak and nature tells them to keep still when hungry.

One of the most intense cravings of the Greely Arctic party was for sweet­meats. Tea and coffee do more good than harm. They stim ulate not only the brain, but the activities of the whole body.

The effect is a revulsion.Bince th e fa ta l days of 1883, m any o f the

T hese m ethods and reliances a re illus­tra ted to-day in a se ries of old-fashioned roots and herbs preparations recen tly given to th e w orld by the well-known p roprie­to rs of W arn e r’s safe c u re -p re p a ra tio n s m ade from formula) possessed by m any of ou r o ldest families, and rescued fo r popular use, and issued under th e happy deaignv tion of W arn er’s Log Cabin R e m ^ ie a .

“ My Bon,’’ exclaimed a venerab le woman to the w rite r when he w as a boy, “ m y son, you’r ye ller and palo and w eak like lookin’, you’r needin’ a good shak in g up w ith some sas’paril’.”

A jug of spring sa rsaparilla w as ju s t as necessary in the “ w in te r supplies” of fifty years ago as w as a b a rre l of pork, and a fam ous medical au thority says th a t th e very general prevalence o f th e use of such a p reparation as Log Cabin S arsap arilla ex ­plains the rugged health of ou r ancesto rs.

W hile W arn er’s Log Cabin S arsap arilla is an excellen t rem edy fo r all seasons of the year, i t is particu larly valuable in the sprm g, w hen the system is fu ll of sluggish blood and requires a n a tu ra l constitu tional tonlo and luvigorator to re s is t colds and pneum onia, and the effects of a long w in ter. Philo M. Parsons, c le rk o f the C ity H otel of H artford , Conn., w as p ro stra ted w ith a cold which, he says, “ seem ed to se ttle th rough my l ^ y . I neglected it and th e re su lt w as my blood became im poverished aud poi­soned, indicated by infiamed eyes. I was trea ted , b u t my eyes g rew w orse. I w as obliged to w ear a shade over them . I feared th a t I would be obliged to give up w o rk .”

“ U nder th e operation of W a rn e r’s Log Cabin S arsaparilla and L iver PiUs,” be says, “ The sore and infiam ed eyes disap­peared. My blood, I know , is in a health ier condition than it has been for years. I have a m uch be tto r appetite. I shall take several m ore bottles for sa fe ty ’s sake. W a rn e r’s Log Cabin S arsaparilla is a g re a t blood purifier and I m ost h eartily recom m end it.”

A few bottles of W arn e r’s Log Cabin S a r­saparilla used in the fam ily now w ill save m any a week of sickness and m any a dollar of bills. Uso no other. This is tho oldest, m ost thoroughly tested , and the b est, is put up in the la rg est sarsaparilla bo ttle on the m arket, containing 13^ doses. T here is no o ther preparation of sim ilar nam e th a t can equal it. Tho name of its m an u fac tu re rs Is a g^uaranteo of its superior w orth.

E. A. Bangs.—Capt. William S. Simms, a w’ell-

known and hignly respected resident of Livingston county for a number of years, died at his home in Pontiac March 22, aged 54 years. The funeral, which was largely attended, was from the M. E. church in that city Sunday last.

—Daily Arrivals of Fresh Groceries, purchased for spot cash, enables me to furnish customers with the best article at the least price. E. A. Bangs.

— o f . T. B. Swartz’ many friends herdSfill unite with the P l a i n d e a l e r

in extending congratulations upon his graduation, with high honors, from the Chicago Medical College last Tuesday. Mr. Swartz was adjndgeil to have had the second best thesis, and in a competi­tive examination won a place in St. Luke’s Hospital, Chicago. The new M. D. is to be congratulated all around.

—When in want of a number one article in the grocery line it will prove to your financial interest to call at the old reliable house of E. A. Hangs, where all goods are sold at prices to corres­pond with the close times.

—The storm of last Sunday was a severe one. The rain was accompanied by a disagreeable east wiiul, and as it fell, not as rain, but as a heavy mist, it froze, forming a coating of ice over everything. The limbs of trees were so heavily laden with their icy covering that they were bent almost to the ground, and the telegraph wires swayed and in places were severed by their burden. Pedestrians found the walking far from pleasant, and in many places dangerous.

—Next Tuesday is election day and Chatsworth has no candidates, no caucuses, no tickets, while other towns had caucuses, nominated candidates, ordered tickets, and are, jiresumably, pulling the wires for keeps. Verily Chatsworth is in a passive mood. And still caucuses may have been held, can­didates may have been nominated, tickets by the .score may have been printed; but if so, we are profoundly ignorant of it, and have lost the job of printing. Modesty has cea.sed to be a virtue among onr ollice-seekers until onr condition is truly alarming(?).

—We learn from the Highway Com­missioners that, in round numbers, $1,- 6 t0 00 has been paid on old onlers du r­ing the past year; but there is no doubt, the township still owes a sum not far from .$2,700.00. The fact is, when a township, village, or school district gets into debt, and keejis in debt for a number of 3'ears, during which time there are changes in the otlicers, the finances get in to such shape that it is diflicult to ascertain how much the total indebted- ne.ss is, and this seems to be the difhcul- ty with our towmship. The best thing to do is, get out as fast as jiossible and then under 7io circumstances get in again.

—Good Friday has been celebrated with appropriate services by several of the churches in our city' to-day , and in con.sequence the town has been well filled with people from the surrounding country. Services, with a sermon in keeping with the day by Rev. Wingert, were held a t the German Evangelical church at 10 o’clock. Rev. Kopittke, of Gilman, contirmed a class of three young ladies, gave communion and an appropriate sermon at the Lutheran church, the services beginnning at nine o’clock. Mass was said at St. Patrick’s cHurch and this afternoon an appropri­ate service held.

—Last Saturday afternoon a number of the lady friends of Mrs. J . S. Doolit­tle surprised her by coming in with their sewing and lunch baskets. The •afternoon was spent W ith the needle­work, when presendy (lit> biilics pro­duced their baskets and spread supper.All was in readiness when Mr. Doolittle and the gentlemen arrived, and the re­past was much enjoyed by all. About eight o’clock, when all were engaged in .social conversation, the company was not only surprised but enlivened by the arrival of a number of young people. The remainder of the evening was en- joy'ably spent, and when the unexpected guests departed it was with the feeling that their surprise, as planned, had been a success.

—The writing of news items is an art which few posse.ss to perfection, and only tho.se wnose duty it is to examine the manuscripts sent for publication by reporters and contributors, are aware of the blunders writers make, and the labor incident to their correction. If all our reporters and correspondents were familiar with.the information contained in “Successful W riting” (published by A. B. Gehman & Co., Chicago. Price, $1.00) they would not find their “cony” curtailed, or at times rejected. This book is a plain, practical and instruc­tive dige.st of every day grammar, rhetoric and other matters which every­one who writes for the press ought to know. I t should bo in the library of every family in the land.

—The leap-year dance at the Town Hall last Tuesday evening was one of the most enjoyable and largely attended parties of the kind this season. About eight o’clock the fair damsel and the stately m atron might have been soon Bitting to all parts of our little city for their gentlemen friends. About twenty- five couples participated in the grand march to. the music of Robholz’ orches­tra, after which a variety of square and round dances were engaged in until a late hour. Supper was served at the Cottage House and was, in every way, creditable and enjoyed by those partak­ing of the repaM. >A number from

abroad added to the pleasure of the oe- oasion by their presenoe. - The ladies of Chatsworth are oertaioly doling weU, this being the second leap-year dance of the season, and the gentlemen are en­joying the leap-year “ privileges” of the

—Chief J ustice Waite, of the Unit­ed States Supreme Court, died at his residence in Washington Friday morn­ing, March 23 (see 2d page for portrait and biograplyj'). The late Chief Justice was appointed in 1874 by then President Grant, ami has left behind him a repu­tation as the Chief Justice of the great­est court in the world—second to none. His written opinions cover a vast field of legal lore, and are universally con­sidered to be among the most profound and logical found in jurisprudence. Neither as practitioner before the court, nor as judge upon the bench was he, in any sense, what, in legal parlance, is termed technical. His decisions are marked by a temper of justice indica­tive of the high character of the man, and stand out tin bold relief as such. In his death the country has lost one of its best and purest citizens, Jhe United States Supreme Court a presidin Judge, whose exalted reputation wi live for all time, and whose sudden demi.se has caused a vacancy which should be tilled by one of the ablest jurists in the land.

Hast—Miller.At the home of Mr. and Mrs. J . P

Hansen Thursday evening, March 22, 1888, at sevea o’clock, occurred the marriage of 5 ^ s Mary Miller, of this city, aud Mr. Charles Hast, of Sibley, Rev. W ingert ofliciating. The ceremo­ny was witnessed by only the immedi­ate relatives of the contracting parties, all of whom united in hearty congratu­lations. A bounteous supper was .served and partaken of with many .ex- pre.ssions relative to the excellence thereof. The bride was attired in a be­coming costume of brown, while the groom wore the usual suit of black. The pre.sents were numerous, substan­tial and useful and expressed the high esteem in which the young couple are held by their many friends. Mr and Mrs. Hast left on the 5-.20 T., P. & W. passenger Friday evening for Sibley, where they will make their home with the former’s parents until the comple­tion of their new home, which is being erected. The bride and groom both have a large circle of friends in this city aud vicinity, who unite with the P l a i n d e a l e r in wishing the happy couple a long life of continued prosperi­ty-

John Fitzgerrald,who had made all arrangements to move to his farm in Hayes coun^, Nebraska, loaded a car on the T., P. & W. Ry'. Thursday, the 22d, and left Friday night on the 11 p. m. freight west. He reached Peoria at 5:20 Saturday morning and got a transfer contract of the C., B. & Q. agent. From this time on his troubles began. The diflerent switch engines would bang him and his car-load of household goods, horses, etc., from one point to another until 2:30 p. m., when, becoming-tired of the rough usage, and no prospect of getting out on his jour­ney, he was sent by the local freight agent to General Agent F. C." Tapping, wiio said to Fitzgerald, T will try and get you out at once,” but no progress was made in tiiis direction and Fitzger­rald called upon General Freight Agent Gould, of the f ., P. & W. Ry. for advise. Mr. Gould telephoned for Agent Tap­ping, who came to Mr. Gould’s office. Tapping finally said to Fitzgerrald that he had best put his horses in a stable and he would pay the expense, go to Chatsworth, and stay until notified to come. ThisFitzgerrald did, arriving here Saturday night on a pa.ss furnislied by H. D.tiould, general freight agent T., P. & W. Monday forenoon local Agent Liston notified him to go to Peoria on first train; that the C., B. & Q. Ry. Co. were ready to take him and his car through to his destination at once. He left on the noon T., P. & W. passenger, and arrived in Peoria shortly after 3 p. m. and went at once to Ageut Tapping of the “Q,” who said, “Go and load your horses; we are ready to take you out right away.” Fitzgerrald asked if ho would insure him to go through without the same trouble at Galesburg, Burlington, Lincoln, and other points. Tapping replied that he would agree to notiung, nor sign a contract of any kind; “ we’ll pull you out of here now if you w ant to go, and if not we’ll mud- track your car.” Fitzgerrald said if they w'ould insure him to get through in a reasonable time he would go. Tapping replied that he might get through in three days and it m iept talce three months. J'itzgerrald repaed that he would not go under the circum­stances. Tapping said he had better go, and tha t he woiud have nothing more to do with him or his car if he (ud not. Fitzgerrald went back to Mr. Gould, of the T., P. & and finally an under­standing with Tapping was had, where­by the car was sent hack to Chatsworth, where it, and F i t i^ r ra ld arrived Wednesday morning about 2 o’clock.

Fitzgerrald, in consequence of this, is !rom ^ i n g to ms farm in, Ne­

braska, has sold out here, and ie a t / a loss to know w hat to do. If there b no

Mr. Dorsheimer was one of the most forcible writers on the American press; his reasoning was clear, simple, concise, and logicaL With a cultivated mind and perfect iiuderstand- iiig of all political subjects, the Star, under his able management, was fast taking the lead as the Democratic organ of the metropolis. With a spotless record as a soldier or the late war, aud friend of Abraham Lincoln; as a prac­ticing lawyer, and statesman; as a journalist and political writer, he goes to his grave at an early age (56 years) honored, revered, and mourned by all who knew him.
