Walker, lor 30 years a missionary of the American Board of Missionaries at Gaboon, west coast of Africa, preached at the Congregational church last Suuday both morning and evening. In his sermon in the evening, the reverend gentleman reluted his experience as a laborer in the missionary field which proved "of deep interest to his auditors. the night between Wednesday and Thursday lasi, some sneak thief entered the bedroom of Gen. Bertram at Juneau, the landlord of the American House, chio reformed him and his wife, and stole some S3OO in eftsh. a gold chain and a gold pen from hie pockets.

The thief came in on the night train arc left on the early morning train. The less is a severe one to the General, part of the money not even belonging to him. The Dodge County Fair held at Juneau last week, was a great success in every respect, and surpassed everything of that kind ever seen in Dodge county. The attendance during Wednesday and Thursday was large, and the exhibition of stock, especially of horses, exceedingly good. The Society feel highly encouraged and grateful to all who participated.

We sorry to record it, but it is a fact nevertheless that a portion of the money stolen from Gen. Bertram nelonged to the Juneau Democratic campaign fund. Now. it is no easy matter to extract money from a democratic politician, and the ga lant General had worked long and earnestly for tb amount. The rascal who pilfered the General was no doubt some zealous republican, who thought he could do his party a signal service by stealing the democratic funds.

It is without a doubt one of Boss tricks to cripple the democracy. How W. R. Taylor and his immediate friends will weep over the degeneracy of the republican party when they hear of this. Dealt.

Mr. C. Dale Armstrong, of Chicago, gave readings at the Congregational church last Friday evening. The audience was small, owing, no doubt, to the stormy aspect of the weather Those present were pleasantly entertained, the gentleman being a reader, mimic and ventriloquist of more than ordinary merit. He has rare power over hit voice, and his selections, for the most part comic, were all well rendered.

We could safely promise Mr. Armstrong a larger house if be comet here again. Christian Emblem. The of the new St. Bernard Catholic church is jrmounted by a fine cross of the Latin design, casc at the foundry of Mr.

The cross has a very fine eficct to the tye, and, of course, at its great distance from the ground, nearly 200 feet, looks diminutive sotnpared with its actual size. iw Train. Tb Hilwaakee and St. Paul Railway, vilb their accustomed accommodating spirit and placed anew train on their Madison line last Monday, between this city and Madison, by which the traveling public will benefit largely. The train leaves this city for Madison at 3:30 in the afternoon on iho arrival of the trains from Milwaukee and Chicago, and at Madison at 7 p.

m. Returning the train leaves Madison at 11:30 A. M. and arrives at the Junction in this city at 3 in the afternoon, in time to connect with the Northwestern train gointr north and the Milwaukee St. Paul train going west.

The Madison train which leaves this city at 7 m. and arrives from Madison at 10 a. will run as usual. Dodge County Ticket. At their Convention held at Juneau last Thursday the Republicans of Dodge nominated the following excellent county ticket; State Senator C.

McFetridge, Beaver Dam. Sheriff H. Lawrence, Burnett. Treasurer Rauerhering, Mayville. Register MUlcr, Calamus.

Clerk of Court T. Rambuscb. Juneau County Clerk Reid, Ashippun. District Attorney Frost, Waapun. Surveyor Prentice, Watertown.

Coroner Fisher, Lowell. A stronger ticket could not possibly have been made, nor one bettor deserving the support of not only the Republicans of the county, but all who, setting aside party feeling, would see the offices filled by honest, capable and efficient men. That this ticket comprising such popular names will call to its aid a strong vote in November admits of no doubt. Wisconsin 91. E.

Ministerial Cfianges. Rev. W. Window, for the past two years pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church of this city, is succeeded by Rev. A.

Wanless, who has had charge ot the Methodist church at Waterloo. Rev Mr. Window has been appointed by the Conference to the charge of the Methodist church at Shopiere, Wisconsin. Our citizens generally will regret parting with Rev. Mr.

Window, who has proved himself not only a faithful and zealous minister in service, but a gentleman of agreeable social qualities. He and his family carry to their new home our best wishes for their luture happiness and prosperity. In the appointment of Mr. Wanless, the church at Watertown has been fortunate as he is a gentleman of fine ability, and brings to the aid of his church work an extensive knowledge procured by travel and observation abroad, having been for some years, we believe, a missionary in India. Rev.

G. S. Hubbs, after having charge of the Methodist church at Beloit for two years, has been appointed by the Conference to the charge of the Methodist church at Clinton Junction. A Democratic Fizzle. All ere agreed that the democratic masc meeting at Juneau last Thursday afternoon was a miserable fizzle.

For nearly three weeks the meeting was extensively advertised and great preparations were made by the Democratic brethren for the reception and care of the faithful Tildenites. To insure a crowd the meeting was called on the afternoon of the last day of the Dodge County Fair but even tlrs device did not work, the masses preferring to look over stock and see horse racing rather than listen to the laudation of such a cheat and fraud for the Presidency as Sam. J. Tilden. Among the many advertised speakers, just one put in an appearance, General Bragg, the candidate for Congress from the sth district, who harangued the guard before him in a melancholy sort of way for the space of an hour or so.

During his speech Bragg looked rather sheepish as he was addressing the friends and admirers of Sam. Burchard, who on all principles of fair play and partv usages, was entitled to the nomination instead of himself (Bragg.) BesidiO ail this the paltry few before him chagrined him, and no wondar befeltdown in the mouth and left for Fond du Lac unceremoniously on the first train from Juaeau. Thera fM no crowd, no enthusiasm, and, rest assured, there were no made for Tilden and Reform by the operation. Judga Sloan, although announced to ba present, tha thing the cold ahculdar.

liragg for Congress. Tile Senatorial Question. Hon. N. S.

Greene and Dr. W. W. Reed are candidates in this district for the office of Senator. For whom should the people of Watertown rote? This is an important question for every elector to consider.

There are special reasons which in our judgment should determine the matter against Dr. Reed. His course in the Senate, during his incumbency of the office, has not been such as to command the confidence or respect of any one. In our local matters, with reference to the city debt, upon which there necessarily is difference of opinion, he has been upon both sides. He has been for the Union League and against it.

He was instrumental in procuring the passage of the law legislating the Union League Board of Street Commissioners out of office. For this he received many curses on the one hand and an equal number of praises on the other. Last winter be took the opposite lack and propritiated the League, receiving from its members many encomiums, and a corresponding number of curses from those opposed. We are aware that a member of the legislature cannot always vole sc as to command the approbation of all his constituents. But there is oue thing he can do and that is vote as his conscience tells him is right- This is what Dr.

Reed has most conspicuously failed to do. He has acted the part of a political trimmer and trickster, never casting a vote upon a question in which the interests Watertown werejinvolved, without first making amiuute mathematical calculation as to how it would effect him politically. The League may be his friends now and support him, but if they do so, it is for pledges which Reed has made as 10 the future, and not for what he has done in the past. The people do not want a man (or Senator with no settled convictions, who will pledge himself to support a measure to-day and vole against it to morrow'. They desire a represeutatsve who can be relied upon to vote bis honest convictions and not play the part of a demagogue.

They do not want a man who is as apt to be wrong as be is to be right. People who are familiar with Dr. record as a Senator in this respect know how unsatisfactory his career has been. They know further that he never could have been re-nominated but tor the overwhelming democratic majority in the district, which it was believed by who forced his name upon the convention, would carry him through successfully. It is the turn now to be beard in the matter.

has played its part defiantly. We appeal to every candid voter of either party to vote against the political trickster, Reed, and support his opponent, Mr. Greene. The latter gentleman has been tried and was never tound wanting. He is thoroughly reliable, high-minded and bonest.

What he knows or believes to be right he will do with a will, and no power on earth can move him frem his line of duty. He does not know how to act the demagogue, We will not have to send committees to Madison to watch him. He will make a faithful and capable repseseaiative of the true interests of Watertown, and every friend and wellwisher of the city should vote for him irrespective of party. Watertown at Annapolis. The examination of Master Albert Smith, of this city, at the Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland, and his admission into that initiiution as cadet engineer, deserves more than a passing notice.

Young Smith is considerably under twenty, and is a graduate of the Watertown High School, Prof. Theodore Bernhard, Principal, He left our High School a lew months since, with serious doubts as to his success before the Board ot Examiners at Annapolis, and the result is most flattering to Albert as well as to the course of study he has pursued here. There were three hundred applicants for examination, and out of 80 examined for cadet engineers, only 25 were accepted, Albert Smith standing 6th in the list. This makes two naval cadets now at Annapolis fiom Watertown, the other being Percy Werlich, midshipman. Both are graduates of Watertown High School, a fact that reflects credit on the educational advantages possesed by our public schools.

We find the following in the Milwaukee Sentinel of Monday: A mas named Merritt Hoakins was arrested Saturday on a charge of swindling, preferred by Mr. Bacon, of the firm of Bacon Goodrich. It appears that the prisoner has a brother at Lake Mills who runs a hotel and keeps a store, and with whose business affairs he is exceedingly well posted. On Friday last Merritt came to town, called upon Smith, Roundy Jg and introduced himself as his brother. He spoke of an invoice of goods which they sent him, and informed them that, he had come in to lay in stock, and conducted himself in so familiar a manner as to convince the firm that he was as he represented, the store keeper at the Mills.

Before leaving the store, however, he discovered that he was in need ot $35.50, and the firm, recognizing in him a good customer and a man of property, did not hesitate to advance the sum. Merritt next visited Bacow Goodrich, where, by a similar method of procedure, he succeeded in obtaining $25. He then attempted his artful dodge upon Greene Button, but failed in accomplishing his purpose. On Saturday he returned to buy goods and have them shipped, but the firm had been apprised of the nature ot their customer, and a clerkwas detailed to engage hla attention while another went in search of an officer, who provided him with safe quarters in the County Jail. books, miscellaneous books, commercial stationery, stationary, visiting cards, embracing every article in the book and stationery trade, at the lowest price at T.

S. Clark cor Third and Mala stieeM. Gen. Bragg on the Stump. It is no wonder that Dodge county mass meeting at Juneau last Thursday wa? a failure, and that instead of an audience of 6,000 democratic yeomanry, there was scarcely 200 disconsolate Tildenites present.

The fact is General Bragg has been always under a cloud. His first great offence as a democrat was when he accepted a nomination for Congress from the Republicans against Charles A. Eldridge, whom the Democrats worshiped in those days. Of course, in this contest Bragg was buried out of sight his Democratic friends. It is still fresh in the memory of everybody how all the Democratic members of the legislature of 1875 deserted General Bragg, of fame, as a candidate for United States Senator, and voted in a body for even so rabid a Republican as Angus Cameron.

This stab in the house of his friends caused great chagrin to the General and he went to calling democrats hard names until his audacity reached such a point that he called William Taylor, the Democratic-Reform Governor of Wisconsin, an egregious old and wholly unfit for the office he held, much le for a reelection. This Bragg said at the Plankin ton House meeting, and has never denied it, but so far recovered himself during the canvass of last year as to make a few speeches in favor of ibis old ss although what bo said had no weight in the campaign, all the listeners considering where the utterances came from, like the man when kicked over by the long eared animal. In 1860 General Bragg was called into service in this county to aid, principally in the election of the Democratic candidate for County Treasurer, and made one speech at Rome. The result was the elec, lion of the Republican candidate for Treas urcr, Mr Edmund Sweeney, the very man Bragg sought to and the oalance of the Republican candidates were beaten by a small vote. It has ever since been a source of deep regrit to the Republicans that Bragg did not speak at some otbei points beside Rome.

A few more speeches by Bragg would undoubtedly hqve elected the whole Republican county ticket at that time. are glad, therefore, to learn that General Bragg has consented to speak at least once in this city during the presem campaign, and will address the democracy of Watertowa next Monday evening. The great effort of his life will be in bands across the bloody with Major Charles H. Gardner. Tt is expected on the occasion there will be a happy blending of the and the and so finely drawn out will be these colors that their identity will be lost in the great strife fyr Reform and the Real instate.
