Simeon Whiteley rememoer an occasion a ring i. capital when the defenders of the "divine institution" were wrought op to each fren VhtZ A challenged Hon. Jno. F. Potter of Wucon- tin, to aortal combat It seemed as thoagh the seven luries bad been let loose npon the city.

Nothing else was talked AI. AIU1 in RlttllV AIiim I a ma. au anU-eUvery man to soeak hU aenti uenta, During the latter part of that evening tbe correspondent ol one of tbe leaoing ew xorg city oaiiy papers pre- r'otter'S notel. thst auhL if nnauihla. interview Mrs.

Potter aod get her answer to we question wnicn was upon every "Will Potter Fight?" Shortly alter sending oar cards the answer came that 1 I wr wouiu ue giaa to meet as the hotel narloe anrt a.lon tnnnA selves in the presence of a lady ot nearly mtuaie age. ot hue nreeenoe. and seemingly as fee from the xcltemeut which everywhere prevailed, thoagh tbe cause of it all did not concern her more nearly than any other person on earth. Alter all the preliminaries ol the occasion had been gone through with, and my friend said that he hsd mad bold to ask ber tbe question which everyone else in toe city was asking tbe others, she ans wered, as nearly as I can recollect: "Yon have no need to make apologies for your caii; am only sorry mat cannot give you an authoritative answer to yonr ques tion. In the first place I do not know that my husband has been challenged to fight a duel; in the next place, I have not seen him since be went to the house of repre sentativee this morning, and consequently have had no words with turn on this sab- ect This much, however, I can say to you, that Mr.

Potter, if challenged, will consider well, first, the duty he owes to country, and secondly, that which he owes to himself, and it he consideis that it is bis duty to his country to he will fight. I know my husband is a patriot, and a man of honor; he will not fail to follow where duty leads." What a grand answer! This reminiscence has been brought to mind during the stay of Mrs. G. C. Had dock in this city, where she buried her martyr husband.

Since recovering from tbe first shock, she has been very self-com posed, outwardly calm, leaning on the strong arm ot tbe Lord, aod She has spoken ot tbe events leading np to the tion of her husband with a clearness ot statement which I will not attempt to transcribe, but which shows how fearless he was, how Btronsly impelled be was to take tbe lead io the war on rum and tbe enforcement of the law in Sioux City, without waiting for pnblic sentiment to come to bis betp. Scorning to arm himself as advised to do, knowing full well the danger in which he bad voluntarily placed himself, but leaving the results in the hands of God ready to fight alone if need be, ready to die if God so willed; and from this true wife came no discourage ment, only wise counsel and encourage ment Was George Haddock heroic? Hie wife was and ia no less so. In her widow hood she feels herself buoyed up by the prayers of God people all over this lanK Let tbe church, which Is glorified by her husband martyrdom, not forget ber. RACISE TtltX t'EHEiX, Monday Will He the Thlrty-flrat ArmI vervary of Its Organlaatlea. It will be thirty-one years nest Monday lines the RsoineTaroverein was organised and ia honor of the event the society will, hold a private entertainment and ball.

It was organised, in 1333 with about forty members, and by a special act of the legis lature it was incorporated in 1H4. At times the society has maintained su ama teur theatre and now has a first class gym nasium; also a glee club and debating so ciety. It has always been connected with the North American Turn Bund. The -ciety purchased the old Methodist church building on College avenue in 1872. They made extensive repairs to the place, built a brick addition 35x40 feet and erected a stage at a cost ol $4,000, making the entire property as remodeled cost about 800.

It has a seating capacity of about 600. The present membership of the or ganization is nearly sixty. Some of our most prominent citizens sre members and the society-is a credit to Racine. At the observance of the 31st anniversary many speeches will no doubt be made, exercises given by the active Turners and a good time had in general. Raelae and Kenosha Atlaa.

mention was maae a lew days ago these columns ol the publication of an atlas ot Bacine and Kenosha counties. The prospectus has been issued, from which the by townships. Separate sectional maps Ol the several townships, on a scale of two inches to the mile, and plats of the cities and villages ot tbe two counties. The township maps will show correctly the location of all wsgon roads, railroads, cities, villages, poatoCices, number and contenU of fractional lota, together with Keneiat topographic features. m.

Outside of the cities and villages the sub-divisions of land with names of owners will be -given, together with tbe loa tion of farm residences, school bouses churches, manufacturing establishments, public inatitntions, etc. The atlas will also contain important and valuable local statistics, poetofSce directory of the state, and a farmers' directory of the two counties. A patron's directory will appear, including a description of the business and 1 nation ot each. The work will be liberally illustrated with views of many of the floes cttv and farm residences, public baildtDgs, and bus inees blocks. This will form so attractive feature of the work, and will represent in so appropriate manner the development and Improvement of the two counties.

From the foregoing it will be seen that tbe proposed atlas, if published, will prove work of great practical value to all classes of citisens. So many changes have occurred and so many im provements have been made within tbe counties of Racine and Kenosha during the thirteen years that have elapsed since the oM snan w.a marte that th. nnhlicailnn of AU- A I- VI ia --'--a-mawa. stra svue jjivjAJwu a tuts i pauuc nrcconuj, i -III AtJ: nrX.rl,r n.ZTlZt will be done under the mnnairement Of E.
