This beats us one. as our oldest voter William Turpening will cast his 16th pres- ' idential ballot next November, however.from the standpoint of age alone we claim the belt, as Granny Wilkins, if she lives a few : weeks longer will celebrate her 101 'st birthday, and will have passed 1 through 20 presidential campaigns. —Remington Press. Brookston Gazette —Albert Marshall, abase ball and foot ball player, of Rehsselaer, has entered the Wisconsin University, and will probably play quarter v back on that college’s famous foot bal.lteam.

Young Marshall is also a splendid student and will make his mark in a more lasting manner than on the gridiron. A man’s head in a sack wan found in Cedar Lake, near one of the landings on the east shore, last Saturday. The coroner of Lake County held an inquest but could not solve the mystery. The head, crumbled when examined and was thought to have been immersed in quicklime. A murder is suspected, but more likely it is a portion of some medical college cadaver, which prankish students have left there to create a sensation. Rev. Herman J. Aiefding, of Indianapolis, has just been appointed Bishop of the Catholic diocese of Fort Way tie-, to succeed the late Bishop Rademacher whose death occured about a year ago. The new Bishop has, been located in Indianapolis for 25 years and was one of the most popular and influential clergymen of that city His ability and character are ve. y highly commended by the Indianapolis papers. He is one of the ablest pulpit orators .in the church, and as a public speaker one of the wittiest. As he is likely to be a frequent visitor to St. Joseph’s college, the athletic young men at that institution will be glad to learn that he is a great ase-ball admirer, and seldom misses a game that he can attend.
