Winter, in September, 1871, and others. followed rapidly during the succeeding winter and spring. The first train reached village on March 9th, 1872, and for the succeeding three years the town grew with surprising vigor.

The town of Tampico, although but 1 fifteen years old, has met with several severe reverses from two of nature's most destructive elements, wind and fire, but has emerged each time stronger and better for the chastening.

The Arst visitation by fire occurred in April, 1872, and destroyed a store owned by Mr. Cain and the only hotel, which WAS owned by Mr. Fitzgerald, the total loss aggregating some 85,000, The second Are occurred January 5, 1874, by which four of the principal stores and one dwelling, together with their contents, were entirely destroyed and a' 'loss of $30,000 entalled upon the owners. The next great disaster occurred at 11 o'clock p. m.

of June 6th following, when the town was visited by the most destructive tornado that ever struck this region of country, not excepting the tornado of June 3, 1800. It lasted but a few minutes, yet Tampico was in ruins when the elements subsided, and it required 840,000 of her people's wealth to repair the damages. No lives were lost in this. tornado, but a dozen or more persons were seriously injured and many slightly burt. all should escape with their lives was a miracle: Six months after the town was swept by the cyclone, all traces of Its ravages had disappeared.

New stores and residences were erected upon the sites of those lately destroyed, and those buildings which were not wholly destroyed were fully repaired. That's the way Tampico people are constructed. They get up where they were knocked down, and they get up stronger and more vigorous than before. In the early history of Tampico, the liquor traffic was licensed by the village board, and at one time three saloons flourished, but for over twelve years no licenses have been granted, and the town is entirely free from the evil, and het people are a unit in declaring that it la banished for all time, No village tax baa been levied for two years past, yet, her streets and sidewalks are in the best condition of any town in White: aide county; no bonded or floating debt exista, and there is money in the treasury. With this state of facts it is useless to declare that internal improvementa cannot go forward in our towns and cities without the revenue derived from the licensing' of saloons.

Mr. Glassburn, the president of the village board, declares that for every dollar derived by a town as license for the liquor traffic, it costs the municipality, directly or indirectly, five dollars. this as it may, the Tampico trustees have demonstrated beyond cavil that no such aid is needed in their town to maintain necessary improvements and repairs. The town maintains an efficient Hook and Ladder and owns a Howe Chemical Fire Engine, the latter purchased during the past year at an expense, togetber with its equipment, of 8700. CHURCHES, SOCIETIES, ETC.

Methodist Episcopal Church. -This soelety erected its first edifice in the fall of 1872, at a coat of $1,500. This bullding. was totally deatroyed by the cyclone In The present structure was commenced and partly completed in the autumn of $74, the finishing touches being given it the next year. It is a handsome edifice, architecturally, being 32x62 feet, with a steeple 100 feet high from the ground.

Tampico is abreast with all the towns in Whiteside County, in the matter of public instruction, and her schools are a credit to the town. Erery citizen we interviewed appeared to be proud of the schools and, we believe, justly so.

The school building was erected in 1874, at of over 84,000. It.18 frame. 32 by 50 feet, two stories high with a wing for hallways, closets, and containing four departmenta. It contains a library, which should be enlarged, a limited amount of apparatus, is convenient, well ventilated and well lighted. Mr.

A. W. Bastalo, now editor of the Fulton Journal, was the Orst, and Prof. B. Canavan de the present principal.

Prof. W. T. Tuttle, now principal of the Franklin Grove schools, held the position for two years prior to Mr. Canavan's term.

Prof. Canayan is a man of fine literary attainments, a graduate of the Iowa Agricultural College and is giving great satisfaction to the patrons of the school. He has charge of the High School, whose enrollment is 32. No class will be graduated until next year. Mr.

Canaan's very thorugh course requirIng one year longer than that adopted by his predecessors. Miss Eva Smith, a graduate of the school under Prof. F. S. Johnston, is in charge of the Grammer Dep't and has the 7th and 8th grades, enrollment, 25.

Bliss Grace Brooks, conducta the intermediate department, and has the fourth, fifth and sixth grades, enrollment, 42. She is a competent and successful teacher, Miss Phoebe Parker has the primary department, with little people under her care. Her school room is cosy and cheerful; and her work modern and progressive. Altogether, thoroughly practical, common sense, good work de done in the Tampico schools, and is fully up to that of any of our graded schools. Union Hall is the only public audience room in town.

It scats between 300 and 400 people, haa a fairly good stage, and is operated by the Band. It serves the public for theatres, lectures, all of which are patronized liberally by the people of the village and surrounding country, NEWSPAPERS. The town of Tampico has but one newspaper, but that one is a good one, -the Tornado, a six column quarto which appears every Saturday. The Tornado was established May 4th, 1876 by Mr. Chas.

F. Gifford, Its present edItor and proprietor, and its advertising columns are well patronized, not only by home merchants, but by Sterling tradesmen as well. Mr. Gifford de a per tive Illinoisan, born at Elgin in Jane 1847, but has resided the latter balt of his life in Whiteside County. COMMERCIAL.

Tampico la no insignificant point, from a commercial and la one among the roost important' shipping points on the Mendota division of the Q. and as compared with other railroad points in Whiteside County, It is clamed that it is seoond only to Sterling and Rock Falls in the extent of its exporta.

There is bot a vacant store room, or an empty residence in the town, and several more of the latter could be occupied at once it some enterprising individual, with the necessary capital, would erect them. There are two hotels and two restaurants. of the former, the Tampico House, J.

F. MoNaugaton, proprietor, is located near the depot and farnlahes substantial entertainment, tidy. rooms and courteous treatment at very fair prices. We tested Mr. MoNaughton's fate and can testify that it is they traveler's own fault if he turns awed bungry from his well spread board.

The "City Hotel" is on Main street And the present proprietors are the Misses Maxfeld Powell who took charge of the house in October last, although the hotel is well knowfi, having. been operated for. many T. 0. Stendman the present postmaster.
