L0Q$L GLEANINGS

Our sister village olH^YcVcbridge is again agitated over the question of saloon bonds.

Property sold well at the Webb auction last week, nearly ev3rything being disposed pf.

Mr. Geo. Sigler has just completed a table for the village council that is a good piece of work.

According to the Attorney General ownerrt of lakes can fish in them how and when they please.

A communication received this morning is crowded out and will prob­ably appear next week. ^

Ed. R.«Stackable, of the state Norm­al, made the DISPATCH a pleasant and profiUble call on Monday,

The patrons of the Gregory ex­cursion speak well ot the trip. No Tarn-to-harass them in Detroit

The Pinckney DISPATCH IS one of the live country newspapers of this seotion of the state.—Ann Arbor Courier.

Mrs—IX—Richards-viM ted he-r-Mster-,-east of town, last Tue>4ay- At th* same time her sister called on her.

R^v. Coddington was with his new charcre last Sunday. His pulpit here was tilled by Rev. Glidden, of Ithaca.

The paper hangers have improved Dr. Siller's office internally and the Dr. now sees the need of external ap­plications.

Many people of this vicinity wil' find what interests them in Teeple Sc Cadwell's new advertisement. It talks and means.

The new advertisement of the corner drugstore is to bfl seen

young smarties that flit around church doors disturbing services. A little of that discipline would not be out of place near home.

If you contemplate a summer trip nothing is more delightful than the excursion the Detroit and Cleveland Steam Navigation company will afford you over their lines. See their card "To Mackinaw'1 elsewhere.

Mr. B. T. Kearney, once a Pinckney boy and employed at Sigler's drug •tore, now a banker in Iowa, yesterday took unto him a wife in the person of Miss Carrie Miner, of Yankton, D. T. Numerous friends here extend con­gratulations and best wishes.

The government has awarded con* tracts to Aldrich & Phillip, prison broom manufactures at Jackson, for 650 dozen brooms and 96 doaen whisks for the-indian reservation; and to Withtngton SrOooaiey tor hoes, grain cradles and scythe jtnaths. Evidently poor Lo must go to work. \

them. The bait is a vartiy tbuyear, however. A gentleman who has raised from 2,000 to 10,000 bushels of potatoes per year in New York, suggests this simple plan to obviate the bug nuia* ance; In every hill of potatoes or every other hill plant a bean. There is something about the smell ofthia plant that the bugs do not like, and tbev will leave the patch for one where this practice is not observed.

Pursuant to Act 170, laws of 1885, the Board of Supervisors of Living­ston county have appointed Mr. J. M. Kearney of this village to look after the proper burial of all Union soldiers in Putnam township whose families are in indigent circumstances and unable IO defray the expense of such burial It is also his duty to report to the proper authorities all unmarked soldiers' graves that .headstones may be provid­ed by the government where the friends of the deceased are unable to pro^de the same. It is, yery properly, the, wish of Mr. Kearney that no soldiers' graves in Putnam should go unmarked and be will be glad to receive infor­mation ot any such graves that are neg­lected in this respect that they may be promptly supplied with stones. Each should make himself a committee of one to report sneb graves, and in doing so be particular to give the name, rank, company, regiment, and date of death of the soldier as far as possible. The nam«s can be left at this office or with John M. Kearney and will receive prompt attention.

A gentleman stepped up to sep­arate them and someone who evident­ly wanted the spree continued interfer­ed. Loud words ensued, and the base ballists, tired enough to quit, left the diamond.

PINCfcNEY DISPATCH. j . T. CAMPBELL, EDITOR AND PUBLISHER.

Pinckney, Michigan, Thursday, June 9, 1887

SOUTHKKN republicans are disap­pointed at the retusal of Robert T. Lincoln to be their candidate lor the presidency in 1888.

SOME statesman who would make Ins name immortal should devise some means of keeping back the tide of poverty- stricken immiKrants constant­ly flowing toward America. Since Jan. 1 over 120,000 of then have land­ed here.

IT is reported that a scheme is on foot to put John Jarrett, of Pennsyl­vania, at the head of the Knighis oi labor in the place of T. V. Powderly. The man who, in that position will show the ability and judgment ot Mr. Powderly is scarce indeed and the chances are that it he is removed labor organizations will suffer from such action.

AGITATION ot the labor question is more and more establishing the fact that the proper way to adjust the pro­blem is i'or each man to go to work steadily, be economical, and maintain an individual labor organization and anti-proverty society of his own. Idle­ness, dissipation and extravagance, more than all else, are what oppress American labor.

A HOUSE divided against itself can­not stand. Already the railroads are fighting over the inter-state law and its efficacy and practicability will be thoroughly tested. Especially are these jangles among the eastern roads.

No small bird has ever created more comment than the Engiish sparrow. Americans are at a loss to know where he is beneficial, and the sword of im­pending doom seems to be hanging over his head and about to fall. He-cent authority on the subject says:

"The department of Agriculture at Washington will soon publish an elaborate, report, u-pon ?he English" sparrows. It will contain the expei-

"ience' of~at>6u t 3^200 observers regard-ing the habits ot this destructive little bird. Dr. MEKRIAM, who is the or­nithologist of the department, and is, preparing the report, says there is no ©ne of these 3,200 people who say's any­thing in favor of the sparrows. In California, the damage done in the vineyards is enormous. The sparrow is fond of grapes, always selects the finest bushes, ajid invariably eats the very best of the bush> From the great grain-growing regions the testimony is universal that very great damajre is done to all the smaller grains. The Q"aTketnBfaTcTener In - the" viciiiry of

cities, and the raisers of small fruiis everywhere, say that the sparrows de­stroy so many berries, etc., as to ser­iously injure their business. The toll the sparrow takes is equivalent to the profit of the entire crop. This bird was introduced from England because he was regarded as a remedy for cat­erpillars and other insect pests. But he has changed-his habits since cross­ing the Atlantic,, and now appears to

--feed wrgrafnyseeds and fruits, rather than on animal food. He has become a veritable pest. Epicures in the East­ern cities have discovered that the sparrows are good to eat, and that they are fully equal in savor to the famous* reed-bird. The best method o.f exter­minating them would certainly seem to be to encourage their use aVthe table. Once let boys of the nation loose up;:n the sparrows with shot guns, and their numbers would be very largely re­duced."

arrest me. There was nothing offen­sive or insulting; but it was enough. After that I never tried to overstep the distance that he had placed between us."

Some days later, at Albenga, the generals of divisions, among the rest Augereau, a kind of heroical, rough old soldier, proud of his tall form and of his bravery, came to headquarters very badly disposed toward the little upstart whom they had seut to them Iroui Paris.. From the description given of him, Augereau is insulting and insubordinate in advance: AiA iavorite of liairas!" he 8*,ys; "a street general!" They are admitted, and Bonaparte makes them wait. He ap­pears tonally, girds on his sword, put* on his hat, explains his dispositions, gives them his orders, and dismisses them. Augereau had remained dumb; when they are. outside he first recovers himself, and finds again his customary oaths." He agrees with >*&«»emi,-tbat "that little b of a general frighten­ed him." He is nUable to understand "the ascendency with which he l'e t himself crushed at the first glance/' Another specimen of this ascendency on another old soldier of the Kevolui-tion,-still rougher and more energetic that Augereau, is given in the exper­ience of lien. Yundaniiue. In 1815 Vandamme said to Harshal Soult, one day as they were ascending together the steps of the Tuilleries: "My dear friend, that devil of a man (referring to the Emperor) exercises a fascination over ihe that 1 am unable to account for. I t influences me to that degree that I, who tear neither God nor devil, am ready to tremble like a child when he approaches. He could make me pass through the eye of a needle; to cast myself m the fire for him.-' And he himself said on a certain occasion: •* Tes, I am a soldier, Lecauso it is the especial gift 1 received at my birth; it is my existence, my habit of lile. Wherever 1 have been I have com­manded. At twenty-three years ol age I commanded at the siege ot Tor> Ion; 1 commanded in Paris on the Vendemiaire; I aroused the enthusiasm of the soldiers in Italy as soon as 1 apr pearcd before theiii;__L \vas boinf_or that/ ' His was an .extraordinary andf superior nature, made tor coijrmanU and conquest.— From the Cosmopoli­tan for June.

The Fleeting book Here is a story on a certain elatf ol

mistresses—a class that is not numer« ous, but is peculiar to the ranks ol the "vulgar rich" who are so scorohingly described by Ouida. A lady comes a stranger to Buffalo, her husband an army omcer, ordered here on special duty. She at once breaks into house* keeping and aeems herself fortunate in securing a really good cook. One morn-ing while reflecting upon her luck in finding such a kitchen treasure—aud she i l a stranger in a strange place—she sees a line establishment—splendid lleigh, fine hordes, swell coachman— drive up to her door. From the sleigh steps out a very handsome specimen of womanhood, elegantly costumed Ouf army woman, suspecting that she is to be made the recipient of a little Buffalo welcome and hospitality, steps to tho mrror,gives her bangs a little twist and pr nks up hastily. She hears the door­bell ring; soon after hears voices in the par Ion But there is no summons for her, and in live minutes, more or loss, the superbly-dressed visitor, aforesaid, leaves the house and drives off. The second girl being asked for an explana­tion, replies that the lady asked to see the cook, aud that functionary soon in* forms her army mistress thut she has had an offer of much higher wages J she will leave at once, and that the offet is too tempting to refuse. Protest is ineffectual, and wondering whether that is the way of doing thing* in Buf­falo, the discomfited house-keeper sub­mits to the result and goes out to hunt after another oook. A few days pass* and the sleigh, the coachman and same elegant specimen of the feminine gen­der, again come up to the door, and this time the lady of the house is cert­ainly asked for. With some reluctanoe and considerable smothered indignatiofi she goes down, but is soon disabused of any notion that the "lady" is going to "make a call." She briefly explaini her errand—admits that she is the wo* man who induced the cook to leave, a,nd complains that she is in a "really awkward position;"~ for a 'splendid cook " who used to live with her wants to come back, and she, of course, feels under obligations to get the other cook a place, seeing that she urged her to leave. She, therefore, asus our army woman if she is willing to take back her original cook "as a personal favor." Beg pardon, reader. Did you say " Well, I swear!" That is just what we said when_ we heard__the story; and it is true, every word of it*

He looked at her in .surprise. He was tired and hungry; all tiio way home he had been thinking of Marguerite, and when he looked at his sister wait­ing there to speak to him, his first word-! were:

"Where ia SIarguerite? , ,

to affectionate demonstrations. Mar­guerite is most lovlne and tender of heart. Tear* and kisses mean anything but guilt from her ."

*'I have not seen tier so\ loving and demonstrative with yua ," sffajVed Lady Per th .

"Then it is ray own fault!" said the loyal gentleman. kkHeavou bless heu;! She has been, I am sure a t rue wife to me ."

"Y/ou must please yourself," said Lady Perth. " I have doue my duty . I hav« told you what 1 saw and heard; I could toll you more. Since you de­cline* to hear it, it is useless. One thing is quite certain," she continued; "you may think little of dishonor—I do not. If that woman remains in t he house I shall not. She has lost her character in my eyes, and I shall not remain under the same roof with her ,"

Lord Stair laughed scornfully.

" I h»re left you forever. You will hear the story when I am gone. I t seems to me useless to speak of my inno­cence; you must th ink of and judge m-j a s y o u wilL Heaven know.-*! Good­bye. Thank yon for all your love and kindness. I would rather be tor tured to death than go through the Divorce Court! There is no help f ir me. Good­bye. M.UilirKKJT"""

Ono.9, twice, thrice he read tha t fatal letter, then it fell from his nerveless hands to the ground. Lady Per th stooped to raise it, and read the lines as she did so.

••You see," Bhe said, gently, " I was r ight . I do not wish to t r iumph over you, but 1 was r i gh t . "

He held out his hand with an imper­ative gesture for silence; great drops of agony stood on his brow, his lips were white and parched. But Lady Perth paid no heed; this was the hour of her

"My dear Tl iamer ," he replied; "you j t r iumph, and she would abate none of it.

"Go and see your wife yourself!" she cried. "When I taxed her with this shameful story, she made no a t tempt to deny it. but she implored me not to tell you—she begged of me, for the baby's sake, for her sake. But I told

she replied. ".She is in her lieve. 1 wish to speak to you see iter, Douglas."

"Some tiresome woman's quarrel ," he thought to himself, as in an impa­t ient tone of voice, he said " I hope they will be punctual wi th dinner to-day; the wind is cold, and I am very hungry. Can you not wait till after dinner, ThamerV"

••1 think it of the greates t consequence tha t you should know at once," said Lady Per th . "I should not like the responsibility of keeping the t ru th Lrom you one moment longer than is ITtH+uiwWJJsy."

Without another word Lord Stair led the way to the library, and Lady Per th followed him.

" I t is nut often," he said, " tha t I feel the cold so terribly. Outido the weather is terrible, and it is as,dark as possible." He shivered as he spoke. "A hard night for all poor travelers," he said. "Now. Thamer, what is it'.'"

There is nothing perhaps more pathet ic than the sight of an empty room. When Lord Stair, followed by I.ady Perth, went to the apar tments where the beautiful young wife spent so much of her time, the scene was a dramatic one; seven o^clock on a dark December night; the room lighted by the blaze of the IUKTand the half-turned on lamps. So ttfany traces of beautiful Marguerite Avlier-; she herself was no j more to be" seen. The book she hud been reading lay with its face on t h e table/fi vase lilied with winter roses sto^obf near an open work-box,del icate , ; dainty, almost impalpable traces oJ ;

Kierfair presence which went to th"e j heart of her husband. / j -Standing there with an evil ligJit in j her eyes, an evil flush on her fape, was I

Lady Perth. The sight of t M t empty ! room, of the French ^wiu.d'ows wide , open, uavc her a thrill of tr iumph. The cold night air comes /rn strong and sweeping; it makes tljiC'flame of the lire | llLcker^du3uclLCAje,yi':n the, steady,Jlauic | of the lamp, and the first words Lord ' Stnir ut tered as entered the room,wore, "Why are' tli^ose doors open?" He did not k n o x that the light of his life had passed/out throngh them forever-more.

Lady/Perth guessed why the cold n l g h t a i r came in. why the lamps were i lowered, why the room was empty, and her heart beat. This wa3 indeed the hour of her t r iumph. She knew by her quick instinct tha t Lady Stair had left the house by this way.

"She ha* done with h i m , " she said; " I have seen it all along, 1 felt sure i t would end in this way. You know Douglas*, that I warned you: I spoke to you often enough about it wiien lie first came here; I warned you, but you blindly refused to see. She was so inno­cent, so greatly to be trusted; I was so evil minded, so suspicious. At l as t I forebore to warn you, seeing that I only at t racted your displeasure to mysel i ."

She might lash and st ing him wi th bi t ter worda a3 she would, he was powerless to in te r rup t her, he stood still with the same dazed look on his face, his eyes fixed on the open French doors, whence she had passed who was neyer to pas3 them more. She could say what she would, he was paralyzed with grief, the lash tell unlieedee. She went to far at last.

The t ime had come in my boyhood which I thought demande 1 of me a capac i ty to smoke. The old people of the household could abide neither the sight nor the smell of the Virginia weed. When ininiaters came there, not by posit ive injunction, b u t by a -sort ot instinct a s t o what would be safest, they whiffed their pipe on the back s teps. If the hcu.se could no t s tand sane-tilled smoke, i t .may be imagined how litt ie chance there was for adolescent ciimr-puding.

By some ra re good fortune which pu t in my hands three cents, I found access to a tobacco s tore . As the lid of t he long, nar row, fragrant box opened, and for the first t ime I own-<'d a cigar, my feelings of elation, manliness, super ior i ty , and ant icipa­tion can scarcely be imagined, save by those who have had the same sensa­t ion. When I p u t the cigar t o my lips, find stuck t h e lucifer-mateh t o the end of the weed, and commenced to pull with an energy t h a t brought every facial muscle t o its u t m o s t ten­sion, my sat isfact ion with this world was so great my t e m p t a t i o n was nev­er t o w a n t t o leave it.

The cigar did not burn well. It re­quired an a m o u n t of suction t h a t tasked my de te rmina t ion t o the ut­mos t . • Y o u s e e t h a t my worldly means had limited me t o a qual i ty t h a t cost only three cents.

Wi th these sent iments , I passed down the village street , and out to­ward m y e o u n t r y home. My bead did not feel exactly right, and the s t reet began to rock from side to side, so t h a t it became r a t h e r uncer ta in to me . which side of the s t n v t I was on. So I crossed over,but. found •myself on the s a m e side as I was before*! cross­ed over .

Assailing Hugo's Memory,

Next week 1 hear, we are to have another posthumous volume of letters and pen landscapes by the author of "Les Miserable;*,. The moment "is ill chosen, for the reaction against the dead poet is setting in strongly. The young generation is against Hugo and in favor of LamarUh'c/xvho will be set up on a definitive peYlestai. while Hugo will be dragged in the mire and covered with opprobium, both as a man and as a poet, until his turn shall come some twenty-years hence for a tinal apotheo­sis. An amiable biographer is already preparing a negative of the unedifyiug details of Hugo's private life—of' the consolatory bason ofMme. Hugo with Saint Beuve of the counter liason of the poet Mine. Druet, the actress and of the sadness of the later years of the poet's life, as seen from behind the scenes, and through the glare of tue perpetual and often grotesque glorifica­tion of which his^memary is now the vectim. Considering the natural pes­simism of t he age, it would perhaps be preferable that this book should never be wr i t t en—Par i s Let ter to the London World.

Mrs. Ed. Parker is sick but conva­lescing.

It seems that the affair at Unadilla in which people are annoying James Mackinder #rew o u£ 0 t a post-office matter and is s-till quite bitter. Threat­ening letters are frequent and Mr. Mackinder has sent some of them to the P. 0. Department. They promise to take his life unless • he gets ofit of the country within GO days. It is cer­tainly a strange policy for anyone, no matter how low, to pursue. It there were just Criuse for some demonstra­tion 'against Mackinder no doubt it would not be conduced iu secret.

The most horrible murder of the week occurred near Ovid, and is told in the Detroit Tribune as fo lows: Corunna, June 4.—The circumstances of the Fulton-Homles tragedy seem to be as follows: Fultou, who was married only fo ur weeks a<jo, suspect -ed infidelity on the part of his wife with Holmes, and on Koinjr into his house shortly alter 8 o'clock last night discovered them in a compromising po­sition. Terribly enraged by tiiis evi­dence -)i his wife's i-nminal intimacy with the man of whom he had been jealous, he drew a large kmfe and rushing upon his wite, dealt her a ter­rible blow across the neck, almost be­heading her, He to re Holmes had time to escape Fulton rushed upon him, stab­bing him seven times, cutting him in guch a horrible manner that his intesti­nes protruded from the terrible wounds. Mrs. Fulton's death was nj&antaneous, but reports are conflicting as to the re­sult of Holme's wounds, but it is not thought that he can possibly recover. After consummating the awful deed Fulton walked a mile and a half to the home of his sister, where he attempted to take his own lite, cutting his throat (

from ear to ear, completely severing the windpipe. In this condition he was brought to jail, here this morning. when the wounds were sewed up and the man, it is thought, may recover. Had his wound been one-sixteenth of an inch deeper the jugular vein would have been cut.- Fulton-cannot talk., but answers some questions by mo­tions of his hands. He stood the oper­ation of sewing up his wounds, al­though very weak from h»s of blood, with great fortitude-- and appeared anxious to recover. He is t>2 years of age, and at any ' t ime his appearance is not prepossessing, but when brought to jail he presented a horrible and sickening sight. It is said that he is addicted to drink and while there ap­pears to be nothing criminal against his character, Inweputation is none of the best." The men are now both re­covering. This is only one of six murders in Michigan HIIC« June 1,

Lightning struck Mrs. Eliza Kuhn's barn Monday afternoon. The damage was not very great but quite annoying.
