All the assessors have rolnrnwl their books to tho county clerk's office, except those from Freeport, Harlem, Buckeye and Dakota. While at Dolavan lake fishing this week, our distinguished citizen, M.

To discontinue an advertisement, says John Wanamaker, the largest advertiser in the world, is lilw taking down your sign. If yon wanV to do business you must let the pe.ople know it. Standing advertisements, changed frequently, are bettor ahd cheaper than reading notices. look more substantial and businesslike, and inspire confidence.

I would as soon think of doing business without, a clerk as without advertising. A lady from the country stood at one of the new letter boxes attached to a lamp post in front of the First National bank, and turning to Deputy County Clerk Will Cronkrite, remarked that they wero very pretty drinking fountains, but she did not know how to get the water out. The polite young deputy informed her that they had just boon put up and locked a combination lock, and tho party the city bought them of had not yet sent the combination.

II. Halsey, of Easton, is in the city making silhouettes of peoples faces. By just looking at a person he can cut out a remarkably good likeness with a pair of shears, lie is certainly an artist in his line, and is doing lots of work. The town of Yellow Creek is having quite a boom at and town lots are being disposed of at a lively rate. They would like some good man to go there and build a hotel.

It promises to be quite a town when the railroad vouches that point. are engaged in shipping baled hay into Freeport by the car-load, from Southern Illinois. It is sent to J. K. P.

Fleming, and the livery men, even some of the farmers have to buy some. It sells for $16 ton, and cost in Southern Illinois about but the pressing and shipping brings the price up to $11.

The Northwestern Saengerfest is nearly tended, ami a great number of tho singers will leave for their homes to-night, and the rest will probably leave In the morning. Yesterday after- that is about onco noon was spent by tho visitors in riding men as you. Many about the city, calling on friends and having a general good time. They marched from place to place with drums beating and banners Hying, and seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves. BVHNINO.

The third grand concert of the Saongorfest last evening was unquestionably the crowning and grandest success of tho week's festivity. Early in the evening a vast concourse of people commenced pouring into tho mammoth amphitheatre, and long before tho concert commenced every seat was taken, and every inch of standing room occupied. It is safe to say that considerably over two thousand people wore present, and wo venture tho assertion that not a single person regretted they wero there. Tho initial number on the programme was an overture, "Huy Bias," from Mendelssohn, by the "own and only" Bach's orchestra, of Milwaukee. Tho proplo of Freeport have had tho pleasure of hearing this magnificent orchestra before, but last night the audience seemed even more delighted than over with the excellent quality of music given.

At the close of tho llrst selection a stoim of applause greet the musicians, which grow in magnitude until Prof. Bach gracefully responded to tho encore, and gave another selection Tpial to or better than the llrst. Owing to some unavoidable circumstance tho second number on the pro- gramme was omitted, and in its stead Mr. Hugo Bach gave a very delightful violoncello solo, "Introduction and Ko- mance," from Meyerbeer. Of course lie was called out the second time, and to tho-delight of all gave a choice selection from tho opera of Musically, tho young man is truly a "son of his father," and for fear this fact may not have been discovered by the right person, wo would suggest that tlio old gentleman had hotter "look a leotlo oudt." Tho "grand chorus" which followed was led by Mr.

Wm. II. Wagner, of tills city. The selection given, "Leut- y.ow'8 Mad Chase," from Weber, was very llnoly rendered, and was heartily applauded by the audience. Mr.

Joseph Benedict, the well-known baritone, of Milwaukee, sang thou Sublime Sweet Evening Star," from Tannhaeuser, in a very artistic manner. Mr. Benedict lias a rich, deep, powerful voice, which, with is lino stage presence, makes him particularly acceptable. Tho of Milwaukee, closed tho llrst section of tho pro- gramme with a rolicking sort of a chorus, in which they displayed in a marvelous degree, tho careful and perfect training they had received. Tlio opening number of Part 2d, was a grand chorus, with orchestral accompaniment, entitled "Battle Prayer," by Moehring.

The effort was a decided success, calling forth great applause. At the conclusion of the number Mr. -Wagner, tlio loader, was presented with two very handsome boquots, which bo gracefully acknowledged. But the principal attraction of the evening was the singing of Miss Matilda Wilde, the accomplished and talent ed soprano, of Chicago. Miss Wilde favored the audience with but ono lection, "Grand Aria of 1 from Fidelio," but in that selection she displayed a wonderfully cultivated and ii uly artistic voice, it is seldom that oi! people hear such lino singing, and for that reason tfus audience was greatly disappointed that Miss Wildo did not respond to the hearty applause which greeted her.

Tho succeeding numbers on the pro- gramme wore a chorus by tho Maen- iierehor," of Madison, and a grand chorus by all the societies. The Madison society did some very fine singing, and were heartily applauded for their good work. Taken as a whole, tho concert was a grand success, and was an occasion of groat pkjasuro to the large audience present. 'Ill -1 UlTSINUSH IMi.MJNO was held this morning at Germania Hall and was largely attended. SISClllSTAUY HBKTt called tho meeting to order, in tho absence of tho President, who had to turn to Madison yesterday.

Mr. Julius lloehr, oC MHwauk'n, was elected chairman. llepoils of the various committees were read and matters pertaining to the association were discussed. Minneapolis was decided on as tho place for holding tho next Saengerfest, which will be some time during tlio summer of 1889, and no doubt W'M bo largely attended, as that city has a strong and wealthy organisation and can aft'ord to give all who attend a good time. Tho following were selected ollicers of the association for tho ensuing two years Fost President, Julius Rohen, of Milwaukee; vice president, C.

F. Kiine, of LaCrosse. Tlio secretary and treasurer will be elected by the Minneapolis society, where the next meeting will beheld. Tlio parties from Milwaukee wore severely censured for tho outrage they perpetrated on Stephenson street, tlio other morning.

Thursday afternoon about 0 o'clock, a distressing accident occurred on the Minnesota Northern railroad at the Illinois Central crossing. A gang of men were working tho pile driver, and the pile line slipped off the spreader before the hammer tripped, and tho largo hook'on the end of tho pile line struck a workman named W. Gra- noiing, on the leg witli such force that it caused a compound fracture of that member below the knee, and also made quite a hole in tho limb. The unfortunate man was placed in a lumber wagon and carted to tho city. Ho suffered tho most excruciating pain immaginable on the road to town.

The distance was about throe miles, and at every jolt of tho wagon a groan of pain would eminato from tlio sufferer. Ho was taken to tho Pennsylvania house and Drs. Hance and Stoskopf wero called and set the limb and made him as comfortable as possible under the circumstances, lie showed wonderful power of endurance, and is a man of remarkable grit. Tho doctors think that if tho wound in his log begins to heal immediately, they can save it; otherwise it would probably have to be amputated. His home is at Durand, where his parents now reside.

lie is a man about ft(( years of age, powerfully bui'l and a hard worker. Wo sincerely trust that he may be spared the use of his limb. He is in good hands and If medical service can accomplish tho result, he wi'l be walking around on two legs before long. HEBE IN FOEOE.

It seems that every train that has come into the city for tho past few days bad on board a gang of thieves, who are woi king the town for all they are worth. The fellow captured yesterday is thought to bo a professional, and it is stated that he has been in the city for several days, and got on the excursion train from Belvidere when it stopped at the crossing, inside the city limits. As the amount he tried to get away with did not he can't be sent to Joliet, but will probably to the county jail for a few months. Yesterday afternoon a man entered the residence of Rev. A.

M. Barrett, at No. 10ft Washington street, and stole a gold watch and chain and a pair of bracelets, and $11 in cash, belonging to Miss Amelia Withoft, of Ohio, who is visiting there. The ladies of tfio house were across the street at a neighbors and saw him come out of the house. Tlio police wero notified and made a thorough search for tho party, but be has not yet been found.

Several other houses in that neighborhood were entered, but nothing of value is missing. AT THK KRAFT HOUSE a man was sleeping on a chair in the otllce of the Kraft house and when he awoke his watch was hanging out of his pocket and his pockelbook was lying on the lloor, and the.contents missing, It contained about $40.

made a grab for his watch and tore it from the chain. The fellow jumped to his feet, and the thief struck at him, dropped the watch and skipped. It was a bold-face pit. of business as there was a large crowd standing around at the time and it was as light as day. Conductor Degon says that two crooks carno out on his train at 9 o'clock last night from Chicago, and they tried to work the train on the way out.

Mr. J)egon was looking for an ollicer to put on their track, but before he found one they had vanished. We hear reports from several parts of the city where thieves had been. The officers are on the look out and may possibly be able to lay ofllcial hands on some of the parties before they leave the city. I'ASSltfd COUNTlSlirKlT.
