U., in an open let- | ter to Mrs. Ellen Foster, of Iowa, vigorously attacks the latter for her | adherence to the republican party and her alleged efforts to disrupt the national W. C. T. U. ranks, asks Mrs. Foster four questions. First—- Did you not pay a certain amount of money to make up a deficit in na- tional dues so that a larger delega- tion could be sent to the New York convention? Second—Did you not refuse to confirm the election of certain women elected constitution- ally by the districts to represent them at New York? Third—Did you not by protests for four years by unchristian charges (now proven false) and by newspaper reports seek to bring about secession in W. C. T. U. ranks and to lead such se cession movement and did you not pay bills accruing in this work? Fourth—Have you not been in re- ceipt of pay from the republican party for these and other services? Tf Mrs. Foster's answers do not con- firm the above, Mrs. Hobart says proofs in the shape of records, etc., will be forthcoming. Bloody Butchery. St. More, Hayti, Jan. 38.—Gen. Hippolyte has gained a great victo- ry. Itis the most important battle which has been fought in the civil war in Hayti. “Battle,” by the way isarather misleading word in the present instance, for when S00 men are caught like rats ina trap, with their retreat intercepted, and they are then surrounded and shot down at leisure with barbaroug cruelty, no quarter being shown, no prisoners taken and every living soul put to death, “butchery” seems to be the proper characterization of the hor- ror. That was the scene witnessed here yesterday, at the little seaport town of Grandseleine, about 25 miles Legitime’s army was completely au- nibilated. Campaign, Ill., Feb., Feb. 6.—The Salvation Army, which has been holding meetings in this city for some months past, received notice “y sterday signed by “White Caps.” inf rming them to leave town at once or they would be visited by a y band of regulators and whipped ‘and tarred and feathered. ble anxiety is manifeste? by the ties concerned. This is ihe first intelligence received from 2 suppe: ed band in this vicinity. Considera which—I—which I have long—don't George, dear!” For George had interrupted her again. \ Newly Wedded Couple Rebbed of Their Entire Household Outfit. A wholesale robbery has spoited the plans of one bridal pair and caused a heavy loss to the groom. Frank Lake. who was married in Barnsville, Ga., on Monday, fitted up his house in Springfield for the reception of his bride. They srriv-| ed there on Wednesday, going first to the house In the morning they went up to their! own house and were astonished to | find the hou-e completely plunder- ed. The parlor suite of furniture. | bedding, clothing, statuary, disnes and everything else had disappeared, except the carpets on the floor aud the bed steads up stairs. The par- lor lounge would not gothrough the window, and the thieves pulled it of some friends. half through and left it. The rain then spoiled it. The marauders smashed the chandeliers, choice chi- na and other things that they could not take away.—K. C. Star.

Cor. Farmer's Voice. nec Springfield, Tl, Feb. 6.—Last night Wm. Crane, of Lliopolis, this county. was supposed to be dead from the effect of laudanum taken with suicidal intent. This morning when arrangements were being made for the funeral a friend who had been called in beeame possessed of the idea that he was rot dead. A doctor was summoned and by the application of a battery the suppos- ed corpse was resuscitated, but at last accounts his condition was re garded as critical. Mr. Crane is 86 years old. General Harrison in a recent in- | terview on the subject of civil serv- ice reform, ventured the pre- diction that “the time is nut far dis- | tant when the polities of a govern- ment employe will cease to be consid- ‘ered in his retention in the service, and when efficiency and faithfulness ; will be the only requisites.” And now the burning question with | those who desire to get in is wheth- er this stage of reform is to be reached within the next four years or later.
