Hie Weak and the Impure. The merry little mountain brook, as it lightly dances over the rocks and sparkles in the sunshine on its way down to the river, is pure and clean. It is active therefore, it healthy. It is vigorous therefore, it resists impurity.

But the sluggish pool, where the current is not strong enough to keep the water in motion, is stagnant and foul. Dirt and rubbish are thrown into it, and stay there. Impurities and vile odors make it a breeder of disease and an object to be avoided.

When the blood is strong and rich and red, and vigorously courses its (accustomed rounds through arteries and veins, the system is hearty and -healthy.

When the blood is thin and poor and weak, impurities and defilements creep into it, and it has no strength to cast them out. Then the system runs down.

SCHOOL HOUSE WAR.

Two or Three Lives Sacrificed Over a Wrangle as to the Location of an Institution of Learning. Winchester, 111., Special.

A few months ago the residents of a school district in the bottoms, six miles west of this city, liad a very hot contest over the location of a school house in the district. They divided in two factions and vaged war on each other, and not until after there were three contests at the polls and as many fights did they fix upon a permanent site for their school house. This contest, however, created such a bitter feeling between the two factions that it waa feared by outsiders that there would soon be more bloodshed. This was fearfully realized Wednesday

Davis, an old resident of this

district, liaU a GatiCS" at rrfa-honac on that night, and Charles Sutton, John Sutton and Press Sutton, brothers, and Ike Whitworth, members of one faction, repaired to the house of Davis, fully equipped for war, and with the avowed purpose of raising a fight with certain members ot the other faction, the McKeever brothers, two in number, and their friends. The Suttons succeeded in their mission, for it was not long after their arrival at the house before they started a general fight, and in the melee they succeeded in killing Adam Hill and Ged Snyder. Hill's throat was cut by Charles Sutton, and he died icstantly. Snyder was killed by John Sutton shooting him from behind with a 34caliber revolver. Both were dastardly murders. Hill had taken no part in the fight, and was only an idle spectator, and had his back to Sutton when he (Sutton) cut his throat. Snyder had been fighting John Sutton a hand-to-hand fight, but had his back to Sutton when he fired the fatal shot. The tragedy has caused a great deal of excitement in this county. The Suttons and Whitworth are lodged in jail awaiting a preliminary examination, which will be given them next week.

HIGH LICENSE IN ILLINOIS.

The Attorney Gencrai's Construction of the Harper law. The attorney general to-day rendered an opinion bearing on the Harper high license bill passed by the last legislature. The town of Waterloo, Monroe county, was chartered in 1859, and its charter gave the town power to regulalethe sale of malt, spirituous and vinus liquors without regard to any other act or regulations of the county or state. Waterloo has been licensing its own dram-shops at the rate of $60 per year, and when the Harper bill enforced a license of $-500 the liquor sellers demurred. The state's attoiney of Monroe county asked Attorney General McCartney for an opinion on the question of whether the state law would or would not overrule the special charter of the town to regulate the sale of liquors, etc.

Gen. McCartney yesterday forwarded an opinion in which he took the ground that no city, town or village— no matter how or where incorporated— is permitted to issue license to keep dram-shops that are not in compliance with the Harper law. He says the whole subject ot the contract for the sale of liquors is a police regulation that in granting the special charter to

Waterloo the legislature did not and could not divest itself of the authority to resume its police power or to exercise it in a different way that especially chartered corporations are, like every other corporation, subject to the control and exercise of the police power of the state.

The opinion is similar to that rendered in the case of Shawneetown vs. the City of Chicago and the case therein cited, as found in the 68th Illinois Statutes. It is understood that under this decision immediate action will be taken against the Waterloo liquorsellejs wlio have not taken out ft $500 license.

BEHIND THE BARS.

An Alleged Outragerof Schoolchildren Caught, Jailed and Indicted. Vincennes, (Ind.,1 Special.

A special session of the grand jury of Jasper county, Illinois, was called a few days ago to Investigate one of the most promising young fiends that the Sucker state has produced for some time. Four indictments have been found against Albert Warner for attempt to rape. The accused is a young man and bis victims are little school girls. An accessory to his crimes, it is alleged, is a shot gun, with which he intimidated the children. Investigation shows that this young reprobate

would take his shot-gun and lie by the railroad,on which childreti would walk to school in Ste. Marie. In the latter pai$ of November he stopped two girls named Shelby, aged twelve and fourteen years, respectively, and made known to them his wishes, and the terms on which they could preserve their lives—submission and quiet. The approach of a farmer, however, put Warner to flight, but as soon as the breeze caused by this act blew over, it is said, he was at it again.

Martha and Pauline Spetzer are aged eight and ten years respectively. As they were walking into town on the railroad several days after the Shelby scrape, young Warner, it is alleged, made his appearance from the bushes, armed with his favorite shot-gun. At his command the girls went into a convenient fence corner and made no effort to thwart his purpose, but* fortunately, the extreme youth of the children prevented its accomplishment.

This second outrage was too mnch for the citizens of that place, and the young devil was soon lingering behind the bars.

o'clock this evening Will Sanders, a weU-to-do, though disipated farmer of Phillipstown, shot Enoch Ballentine, a Wabash brakeman. The parties were sitting at different tables, but intoxicated, recklessly displaying a revolver. He was told the straighten up by Ballentine. Sanders, rising, held the pistol to Ballentine's head and fired, the ball entering the top of his cranium. Sanders' past record is very unsavory, this being the second time he has used weapons with murderous intent. At 10 clock Ballentine was reported still alive but recovery impossible.

THE RAIIiKOADS.

The Wabash Cut Off.

Col. Robert Andrews, general superintendent of the Wabash, speaks very encouragingly of the new Wabash cutoff from Ritchie to Danville. The total distance of the line run is something like eighty-seven milts, and the conformation of the country is such that the road will practically lie along a table-land which divides the basins of the Vermillion and Sangamon rivers. The grading will be comparatively easy and not over-expensive. But little bridging will be nguired, except over the South Fork of the Vermillion, where a bridge will be required some eighthy feet above the stream's level. As for direction, it is possible to have one continuous tangent or straight line of fifty-three miles shortly after leaving Ritchie. He considers the new road an eminently desirable line, and it wiil materially shorten the .present Wabash route from Cairo to Chicago, and put the Wabash in a belter position to get business which now goes to the Illinois Central.

The Red Sky on the Pacific Oo»9t. Ban Francisco Alia. On the Facific coast of the United States the disturbance has taken the form of striking and unusual phenomena at sunset, the west appearing in a blaze of brilliant red light, far surpassing the ordinary vesper glow. These phenomena attracted attention in New Mexico, Arazona, and the southern counties of California several weeks before they were observed in San Francisco. In Australia, where the same phenomena have been observed, a correspondent of ono of the newspapers suggests a practical solu tion of the puzzle, by examining the snow on the mountains to see if there has been any unusual dust deposit.

Miss Mary Anderson's photographs are having a wider sale in London, it is said, than those of any other actress, English or foreign, who has played in that city, and they are to be seen in: al. most every imaginable eop.taniB arx afctitude. So many sittings have seriously encroached i: pon the time she wishes to devote to other things. l'But," says she, "what am I to do? I come down to breakfast and find a beautiful bouquet waiting for me. By its side lies a dainty little note from an enterprising photographer, which reads thus: "Madam—Everyday we have endless inquiries for your photograph. We have, of course, to send our customers away without being able to satisfy their demands. Would you sit to artist? We should be very grateful to you, etc., and it generally ends in my compliance." But Miss Anderson doesn't sit once for each attitude. Oh no. She makes them take her in a dozen posisitions at a time. That is to say, she has them to arrange a dozen cameras and operators in almost a semi-circle, and then she sits down or stands in the center, and is photographed from a Anr,nr T---— ultaneously. But when particularly elaborate work is to be done, she makesjthe photographer bring hfs apparatus to her own drawing-room, and take her picture there.

ihe

saddle and out on the most exposed parts of his line. The orders were always to arouse him at any hour of the night, if reports came in. Daring the Atlanta campaign he set the example to his troops of discarding tents ana reducing baggage to a minimum. There was but one tent attached to his headquarters, and that was used by his adjutant-general and his clerks. With his staff he slept on the ground under a tent fly, which was stretched at night over a pole resting in the crotches of some convenient saplings. It used to be said that his headquarters were in a candle-box, because one or two small boxes, emptied of the candles they originally had con tained, served to transport his papeas. The soldiers called him 'Old Tecums' and 'Uncle Billy,' the latter nickname coming into general use in the army during the 'march to the sea.' At his headquarters a single sentry stood guard but nobody, whether officer or private soldier, who wanted to speak to the general, was stopped. He always had a cordial and encouraging word for the soldiers when he rode along the lines in front of the enemy or passed a marching column. For the details of military etiquette and ceremony he cared nothing but for steadiness in action and endurance in hard marching he had a quick eye and a ready word of praise. He w»s usually communicative and outspoken, unless his plans demanded secrecy. Sometimes his frankness deceived tne enemy more than concealment would have done. After he captured Savannah, he sent a flag-of-truce boat to Charleston and gave permission to go upon it to the families of Confederate officers who wished to get inside the Confederate lines. Among the applicants for passes was the wife of a Confederate surgeon, who told the general she wanted to go to Columbia, South Carolina, to join her husband. 'Don't go to Columbia, madam,' exclaimed Sherman. 'I shall be there myself in a few days with my whole army. You are at liberty to tell that to your rebel friends in Charleston.? The lady made haste to communicate this information to the Confederate commanders in Charleston as soon as she arrived but all agreed that, if Sherman actually meant to march to Columbia, he would never have said so. His advance reached Columbia a day after the surgeon's wife arrived."
