On Saturday John Grelish receiv- ed the second and final installment of twenty-five lashes at the central prison for the hideous crime of which he was proved guilty two months ago. The punishment was inflicted in presence of Warden Mas- sie, Deputy Warden Logan, Dr. W. Aikins, five newspaper reporters, and about fifty prisoners. As on the former occasion, Grelish was tied up to the whipping post in the corridor of the southern wing. He wasstrip- PRIVATE DALZELL. EVICTIONS IN TEXAS. | One of The Founders of the G.

I had a crabapple tree near the house the same year, an’ the apples grewso big they busted and broke all my winders. Want to hear how we husk corn?”’ “T’ll try and stand it,” “We chop off an ear an’ let it fall on the ground and then husk it with a team—hitch onto the end of a -husk and drive ’longside of the ear an’ peel it off and then go back after another.’’ “Slow job.”’ “Yes, but there’s twenty bushels of corn when we get through. I was out lookin’ at my wheat yesterday and a head of it struck me on the shoulder an’ pretty near broke my collar bone.” “Yes.” “I have to have gas pipe for my beans to climb—they are so strong an’ squeeze so tight that they cut a wood- en pole in two in adozen places.’” “Yes."” “There was a big rock down on the back end of my place ‘bout ten feet each way an’ it stuck down into the ground ‘bout four feet.

Deafness Uan’t §c Cured by local application, as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way tocure deafness. and that is by constitutional remedies. Deatness is caused by an inflamed cone dition of the mucus lining ot the Eusta- chian Tube. When this tube gets in- flamed, vou have a rumbling sound or impertect hearing, and when it is entire- ly closed deafness is the result, and un- less the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal con- dition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases our of ten are caused by ca- tarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucns surfaces.

It would all have been a sealed book to us. The Grand Army of the Republic, disguise it who may, is essentially the republican party. Take it out of the republican party, and the republican party out of it, and the grand old party would not have left remaining the strength of the national prohibition party. Why disguise it? with facts? IfI were a politician I dare not say this and no politician will en- dorse it; but it is the sober truth known and read of all except fools. Tam sick of this stale old lie that the G. A. R. is nonpartisan. Nonpartisan, eh? What nonsense! It is republican, and republican only. Itis the grand feeder to the republican party, without which it could not live an hour or elect a man, and is the very life and soul of the republican party. If not, why are our delegates nearly all politicians, congressmen, and governors stand- ing high in the republican party? It voted as one man for Grant—was organized solely to do so. It voted as one man for Logan—fairly oper- ated on his behalf. What fools the politicians are therefore, to try to disguise a fact so patent any longer. Thank God I am neither a politician nor a Pharisee, but a G. A. R. man, because it is a republican machine of great power in the land. Private Dauze.u. Snake-Like Twins Near Lathrop. Lathrop, Mo., Oct. 18.—About four months ago, Mrs. Lettes, wife of a farmer near here, was in the garden with her son, when two snakes were seen fighting, and she told her son to killthem. Taking the hoe he mashed both their heads, Mrs. Lettes intently watching him all the time. October 10 twins were born to Mrs. Lettes. The heads of both were flat and resembled those of snakes, while their forked tongues shoot out constantly. No attempt has been made to dress the mon- strosities, and they have been kept in separate boxes. The moment they are put together they commence to fight and shoot out their tongues in ahorrible manner. They are at this time alive and well. Stick To It And Lose Your Clothes. One of Beauregard’s soldiers sent him a dollar and requested him to send a lottery ticket which would win a big prize. He said, “I was al- ways at my post and never disobey- ed orders. I came out of the war without clothing enough to wad a shot.” The General answered: “My dear comrade, I send youa ticket that I hope will draw a prize, and beg leave to give the following advice: “If you stick to the Louisi- ana Lottery four years as faithfully as you did the Southern Confedera- cy you will not have clothes enough to wad a pop gun. Ballard’s Snow Liniment. It you have a terrible pain in the small of the back, get a bottle of ped to the waist. The effect of the former lashes was scarcely noticeable. There were a few bruises which could be seen on a close examination. The bold front he presented on the first occasion had quite disappeared. He had then vowed that they would not make him wince, but when he was being tied up on Saturday by the apparently remorseless guards he was trembling and quivering in anticipation of the punishment about to follow. A guard stood by with the dreaded lash in his hand. War den Massie looked on the proceeding with an official looking blue paper in his hand, which was the warrant for the punishment. Promptly at 9 o'clock everything was ready. The group of convicts who had been selected to act as an audience stood a short distance away, under the charge of a guard. Close behind Grelish the other spectators stood. Warden Massie stepped forward, and, looking at the blue paper, said in a loud voice: “John Grelish, you were convict- ed on the 30th of June, at the high court of justice, of attempted rape on a girl under the age of 10 years. You were sentenced to two months imprisonment with twenty-five lash- es on entering and twenty-five lashes before the end of the term. You are now about to receive the second installment.” There was a moment’s hush and everybody's eyes were fixed on the back of the prisoner. “One;” said Deputy Warden Lo- gan. The guard with the lash, who had been standing one pace from the prisoner, made a step backward, swung the lash around him with an under motion and, bringing it up again over his shoulder, let it fall on his bare back. The lash had hardly touched him when Grelish shrieked and made a struggle backward to get away from the whipping post. But he was too firmly tied. There was only a small red mark on his back about four inches in length. With the regularity of a clock the deputy warden continued to count, and the strokes fell with equal reg- ularity. From the third lash Gre- lish yelled: “My God, oh my God! murder, murder!” Then he called, “Doctor, doctor,” in hopes that the medical attendant would interfere. Slowly the flesh began to discolor. From a light red it went toa dark red. Then the fash drew up purple lines, which soon assumed the ap- pearance of an immense black bruise. Up till the twelfth stroke Grelish kept calling on the doctor, but got no succor from that source. When “No. 13” was struck he fell down, pretending to faint. But the whip- ping-post supported him and the lashing continued. He ceased ery- ing for a brief space of time and his body shook like an aspen-leaf. The nineteenth lash made him yell again, and from that time tothe end his shrieks were terrible. When “twen- ty-five’ was called Mr. Massie said “hold,” and the lashing stopped. Grelish again fell down, apparently ina faint. The appearance of his | cure it and at once.

The pasture of the company is a very large one, including about 4,- 000,000 acres. It had leased ‘for some time most of the alternating private sections which it did not own, and had leased the school lands under the new law. Wolf creek, one of the finest streams in the Panhandle, runs through the heart of the pasture, and the settlers, who have been or- dered out, are scattered along this stream. They have been unable to purchase the land from the state heretofore, because, being watered, it was not on the market. The lesseo is a Scotch company. Why monkey A New One on Ben Butler. “I was talking with Congreseman Calkins in Indianapolis on Sunday. last,” said Mr. Will V. Rooker in the lobby of the Paxton, “and he gave me what I thought was a new one about Ben Butler. The way our conversation started, Calkins asked me about Crazy-Horse Van Wyck, and remarked that he made a very picturesque picture in the senate. ‘I never saw but one other man with such a wild and wooly gesture as Van Wyck had, and that was an Ohio congressman, whom I will not name. He represented one of the interior districts of his state at the time Ben Butler was having no end of trouble with Sam Cox and a good many other people in the house, and doing them all up more or less in his own peculiar way. The Ohio man had been loaded for Benjamin. for some time, and at last one day he got his chance. His speech was simply a. torrent of vulgar abuse, and would.-have.at- tracted unmitigated disgust had it not been for his peculiar gesture, which tempered the disgust with mirth. He had a fashion of raising his arms just as high above his head as possible and then wringing his hands as though he were making a delirious attempt to wring them off. Well, old Ben sat through the speech with his one good eye half shui, net moving a muscle. When the Ohio man had finished and taken his seat, Ben rose—calm, dignified’ and impressive—and stood in the aisle. For a half minute he said nothing. Then he began: “Mr. Speaker.” Another pause, long and ponderous. Everybody waited with hushed breath for him to continue. Raising his arm, Ben produced ex actly the awful gesture of the Ohio congressman. Then he permitted his arms to fall again, and for anoth- ér half minute stood still and silent. “That is all, Mr. Speaker,” said the shrewd and sarcastic son of Massa- chusetts, “I just wanted to answer the gentleman from Ohio.” Judg- ing from the wild laughter and ap- plause which followed, old Ben's speech was at once the shortest and the best ever delivered in the lowe house.—Omaha World. |Snow Liniment, it will positively To Consumptives, or those with weak lungs, spitting of blood, bronchitis or kindred af-- fections of throat or lungs, send ten cents in stamps to Dr. 8.
