It soemns to be barely a skeleton of a racing cart, weighing when loaded with 100 yards of hose only thirty- five pounds. It was built for the great free- for-all race, open to the world, at New Or- leans a few years ago, and was pulled through by two sprinters, who won the race and a handsome purse. It was not required to run the regulation 500-pound cart, and the cart now in the possession of the local ju- venile team fully filled the Dbill.

The Red Oak delezation was accompanied by the Bruce Commaandery band, of fifteen pieces. There were good- sized delegations from Hancock, Shelby, Neota, Persia, Hillsdale and Omaha, The visitors aumbered about three hundred, and this number would have been largely aug- meated had the weather of the early morn- ing been favorable.

THE TILTON.BEECHER SCANDAL. Kchoes of the Old ndal—Sad Fate of the Tiltons. Echoes of the great Beeche ilton trial come back to us occasionally and recall all the woe and pain suffered by the actors in that dreadful quagmire of scandal, says the New York correspond- ent of the Globe-Democrat, Brooklyn banished the subjects from her draw- ing rooms shortiy after the end of the suit, which led to the eclipse of at least two of the actors, Tilton and Moulton, and iniured Mr. Beecher irretrievably. Henry C. Bowen, the richest of all the scandal coterie, holds his own, and though for a few years he never went out in society at all, his house has been the center of numerous social gather- ings this winter. He has a clever daughter who is the attraction of his 1 he keeps up the habit of in- his country home at Wood- all the notables of the re vublican party, who like to talk politic and flowery rhetoric on the 4th of July Mr. Beecher died two y ago, and during the interval that has elapsed since his death little has been said about the old es involved i scandal which once shook voleano: in the personage was revived in th Tilton, the victim of ev gaged in the case, is growing blind. She has been a great sufferer from cataracts, which have been repeatedly cut from both her eyes. Now the sight of one eye is entire gone, and the other is so injured that she lives in a dark room,and will shortly be wholly blind. Mrs. Morse, the faithful mother of Mrs. Tilton, lives with her,and at present the eldest daughter, Florence, is with her. The youngest son of Mrs. Tilton 1s the only one of her children who resides with her perma . The other son and daughter are ried and live in New York. M ton resides in a modest home oneen- in n part of Brooklyn, and never the eaves her room now; for years she only appeared on the street when some household want had to be supplied.

Of all the Beecher family, the only one who has shown her the slight- est sympathy has been Mrs, Isabella Beecher Hooker, who urged her b¥dther to be kind to Mrs. Tilton and to defend her against her husband’s charges. But Mr. Beecher did nothing—could do nothing under the circumstai®es—and, it is said, he grieved that he could not, for he had a nature that led him to feel sympathy and gl:nl'ro.‘-it?' toward his fel- 10w beings. Mrs, Beecher was too bit- ter toward the Tiltons for a word to be said concerning them, and Mr. Beech- er’s last years were passed under the close espionage of his wife. Lately the letters, documents, agree- ments, memoranda, and everything else pertaining to the scandal = were de- stroyed. After the trial they were en- trusted to the treasury of Plymouth church, in whose house the investigat- igating committee held 1ts meet- ings. The papers were committed to the flames an 1 not a line of confessions, recriminations or charges are in exis ence upless Mr. Bowen holds them. Mr. Augustus Storrs was a staunch adherent of Mr. Beecher, and gave $10,000 toward the expenses of the trial, He is an old man, and Jately has sold his house and has broken up his home, no that his wife is dead and he is alone in the world. He feared some less friendly eye might read these documents after his death, and so _he confided ‘them to the flames with his own hands. Theodore Tilton lengthens out his miserable - existence in Paris, and is mainly a pensioner on the bounty of one or two former friends. He has nomeans of livelihood, and is a very unhappy man. Both of his daughters ar ated from him now and he 15 entirely alone, except in the summer season, when some Americans are in Paris. Of all the money he made he has not r tained a dollar, and having no business faculty cannot adjust himself to circum- stances. Frank Moulton, the mutual friend, died long ago, and many of the older members of Plymouth church have fol- lowed Mr. Beecher to Greenwood, Of the family of the latter little is heard in Brooklyn. The eldest son has re- moved to New Jersey, the second son to is in_business and not likely heard of publicly in any dir since he 1s a quiet, retiring man. The other son is not a shining light, and has not made brookiyn his bhome for many years. He isin the far w while the only daughter, M Scovel, is the wife of a minister at Noj wallk, Conn.
