Marinette, Wis., Nov. 10.-Had it not been for Supervisor C. A. Budling, of Amberg, John Harrigan would have committed suicide Monday as the re- sult of an clection bet. Harrigan is a woodsman and lives at Pembine. Elec- tion day he bet the last money he had, $12 on Bryan, with Richard Willis, an- other woodsman. 'Then turning around before the crowd in the saloon where the bet was made he said: \Willis I will make another bet. If McKinley is elected 1 will hang myself on that rail- road sign,\ pointing out the window at the sign board next to the Sa. Paul trakes, \if you will agree to do the same if Bryan is elected.\ The two shook hands and agreed on Monday as the date for the hanging. MecKinley was elected, and Harrigan swore that he would keep his bet.

He kept a close watch of the railroad sign until Monday night. Harrigan wanted to keep his wager, but could not. He said Monday night, when his friends jeered him, that he would bang himself before the week was out, and a close watch on him is being kept. THEY ROT ALIVE. MYSTERIOUS AND HORRIBLE DIS- EASES DESTROYING DROVES OF SWINE. Circleville, Q., Nov. 10. -A disease commonly supposed to be cholera, but which resembles that dreaded conta- gion ouly in its malignancy, is destroy- ing the hogs in this country by the hun- dreds. It has all the symptoms of ty- phoid féver, but as yet no one has been able to discover a cause for the strange malady. It appears unexpectedly in one part of the county, where it reigns with virulence until the hogs ave nearly wiped out, when it will sud- denly shift to another part of the.coun- ty remote from its last ravages and begin its dreadful slaughter in droves that have always been isolate and in no wise exposed. 'The flesh becomes put- rid, which appears in exerescences on the surface, and the flesh sloughs off, leaving a ghastly-looking object. So far nothing has been found to allay the suffering or mitigate the inalignancy, and the hog product of this county will be almost a total failure. The Junior Y. M. C A. Some people seem to think that boys don't amount to much anyway, only to run' on errands, get into trouble at school with bigger boys, tear and soil their clothes just as soon as they get on a new suit, persist in poking into places where they are not wanted, and mitking themselves objects of serious apprehension as regards their future career on the part of parents and friends. It is a fact, forgotten by some, that without boys, we men, who think we know so much, would find the world a pretty dull place in which to live. 'The Junior department of the Y. M. C. A. has been organized for boys. Some say that the boys do not need a place to go where they can meet on com- mon ground and talk over their affairs, but that they should be kept at home, especially evenings, Welll If every father and mother did make home so attractive, so that the boy would want to stay there all his spare time and never want to go out with other boys, why perhaps the Y. M. C. A. would not, be needed as far as boys are concerned. But the fact is, boys are gregarious animals, as well as young men, and the twentieth century seems to indicate that they will continue to be. 'The rooms which have been set apart for the use of boys from 12 to 16 years of age in the association, have been fitted up and benutified by the help of the Woman's Auxiliary, and present a very attrac- tive and home-like appearance. The membership fee for full privileges in- cluding gymnasium instruction, baths, etc., is $2, limited $1. 'The rules which have recently been adopted and ap- proved by the board of directors are as follows: No boys allowed in the build- ing at any tinve, under 15 years of age, unless members of the Junior depart- ment. 'The rooms of this department will be open on Monday, Thursday and Saturday of each week, from 3:80 to 8 p. im. Parents may know that their boys are not at the Y. M. C. A. if they are absent from home later than 8 p. m. The boys will have careful oversight while in the building. Parents are in- vited to call and inspect the privileges. The three-year-old boy of J. A. John- son, of Lynn Center, Ill., is subject to attacks of croup. Mr. Johnson says he is satisfied that the timely use of Cham- berlain's Cough Remedy, during a se- vere attack, saved his little boy's life. He is in the drug business, a member of the firm of Johnson Bros. of that place; any they handle a great many patent medicines for throat and lung diseases. He had all these to chose from, and skilled physicians ready to respond to his call, but selected this remedy for use in his own family at a time when his child's life was in danger, because he knew it to be superior to any other, and famous the country over for its cures of croup. Mr. Johnson says this is the best selling cough medicine they handle, and that it gives splendid satis- faction in all cases. Sold by D. D. Sheldon and F. K. Sweet, Lockport. Col.

The second cottage prayer meeting was held on Tuesday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Vanburen, there was a good attendance, three ministers were present, As it was intended fora surprise, unfortunately the parents were away, which caused a feeling of disappointment, Frankie Vanburen acted the part of host, entertaining and participating in the meeting as well as many of maturer years could have done.

On Saturday afternoon of this week the monthly covenant meeting of the Dysinger Baptist church will be held, beginning at 2 o'clock. NEWFANE.

ALIENS DEPORTED. Three Italian Lunatics Sent Back to \Their Home. ALBANY, Nov. 1%. -As an outcome of prolonged. correspondence with the Ital- jian authorities the state commission in lunacy has suceceded in deporting three alien lunatics to their home in Italy. These aliens belonged to the very lowest strata of society and had but recently landed in this country. Each had beon convicted of crimes of a more or loss seri- ous nature and had been committed to a state prison or penitentiary whore, their insanity becoming manifest, they were committed to the Matteawan asylum for criminal lunatics. The deportation of these patients not only saves the state the cost of their main- tenance, but the room occupied by them is pow available for insane patients havinga legal residence in the state. The first of these was a particularly troublesome man, whose deportation the commission unsuccessfully attempted some three weeks ago, the lunatic being rejected by the steainship authorities as an unsuitable and. most undesirable pas- senger. The cominission will deport next weeka young English woman who recently ar rived in this gountry from England and, becoming insane, was committed to the Long Island. state hospital, Brooklyn.
