llriMiktlrld. Where are you going to The weather for the iast two weeks has heen very unfavorable for the crowing crops. John Cull, who has heen on the sick list lately. Is somewhat better. The strawberry festival which was to have been held at Mr.

Carr's last night, was jostioncd owing to the inclemency of the weather. Thos. McCabe has lately built an addition to his residence which greatly linpioveH its apjiearanct'. "Win. Moss' little b.y was kicked by a horse one day last week and seriously injured.

The road commissioners of and Manlius are busily crimed renlanklng the river bridge at Seneca. There will be a game, or ball in Kinsman July 4th, between the Urooktleld and Kinsman nines, for a purse of 115. Win. Hughe arid Mike Mitchell recently purchased two new top buggies. We supjiose that M.

J. Welsh and J. J. Dunn will soon follow suit. The dance which was gotten up for the benefit of little VA.

McCormick, last Satuiday night was largely attended. The dance was eminently successful viewing it from a financial standpoint, and as a result Kd. feels as gay as a young spring chicken, as all his pockets are tilled with "chink." The time is already at hand when the political wirepuller, "dressed in his best pants, coat and vest," is commencing to make a stir among us, and that same old rumbling, tumbling, political turmoil is resounding in our ears. It makes no difference what a man may be, what clothes he wears, or what his stamp in society maybe, whether he is civilized or uncivilized, white or black, he may rest assured that he will not be passed by unrecognized by those political aspirants on the eve of a political contest. We believe what Horace (Jreely once said, "Let the oflice seek the man, and not the man the orllce;" and when those good-ror-riothing hoodlums try to force themselves upon us, let us give them a dose of the bitter dregs of tiollticalde-featand bury their silent bodies beneath the weeping chestnuts, where the sunlight of heaven will surely never ienetrate, and fill those otllces of trust and honor with good, honest, upright, Intelligent men men who are an honor to themselves and will be an honor to the country and an honor to their fellow-men.

It will be a splendid crop. New jiotatoesare now much relished by some of the farmers. One more week at the present rapid growth and someof the corn will make It too large to plow. Jake Luckey is kept busy shelling corn nowadays. Mrs.

He had suf fered for a couple of days with sharp pains in trie head, out reit no uncas iness in regard to the matter, at least in the shape It did come.

When al most through his sermon he fell sense less to the floor and remained uncon scious for some time. At last he ral lied enough to be taken to the residence of Mrs. Morrison, who lives but a short distance from the church. He was partially paralyzed and numlted, but the exact cause is not yet fully known. Wednesday he was In a critical condition, being very delirious.

Mrs. Morphis and children were visiting In the southern part of the state at the time, but are nowhere. It is hoped he will soon r.t;over, but there is yet some doubt. Dkw Dkoi ftyrfteltl. Matthew Jennett died at his home at 5 o'clock a.

m. June 24. Mr. Jennett was boru In Ireland, imbued with' the principle of liberty and freedom to act as his mind should dictate. He embarked for America In his younger days and became one of the pioneers of Illinois.

Stern and upright in all bis business transactions and with strict discipline he reared a large faru- lly of tays and girls, an honor to him self and a model In the community Now passing away at the ripe old age of 04 to receive the reward of a lift well sitent. A verv lirtre funeral tiro- cesslon followed the remains to their lust resting place in the family ceme tery In Eagle township. Peacefully rest. Father Jennett.

Lightning was almost a continuous blaze ami some damage was don tO LTOWlllL' crops. The thermometer at 07 degrees is hot enotiL'h to make corn grow and ripen. Some indications of what is known as the oats louse has given quite a scare to some of the farmers. Nkxt. Norway.

Hot weather again, notwithstanding it lias been raining for several days: and it just occurs to us that some weeks ago it was prophesied that it would not rain for forty days from .1 une 1st, but prophesies are out of date. Mr. Nelson's school at Iunway will close about July 1-t. Mr. Nelson will keep on, providing the examination is agreeable.

Our national flag, owned by the club here, has done service so long and well as to be about played out. We should have a new one. Mr. A. A.

Dysinger is teaching northeast of herein thedistrict where Miss I lower formerly taught, and was so sun'of a re-engagement. "We can't most always tell." No longer Is conspicuous on our streets that wonderful doctor, for he has shaken off the dust from Norway. Jealousy on the part of another gent leman of the same propensities and title exercised due influence to his removal. Such is the way mankind ciphers out the great problem of life, i.e., crowd to the front, regardless of the welfare of others. In this age no one should be satisfied with a child's simple uuderstandingof the three "It's," as some express it.

We are a progressive people. To the Individual who prizes life in its fullness, there is little for an education in solely knowing a limited list of words of the English language; to write a little to cipher in the simple numbers, may enable one to transact business in a degree, but it is not the sphere and full duty of man to be satisfied with that alone.

Kyron F. Maxon died of consumption on Sunday afternoon. He had been ailing three years and had taen confined to his bed since February 1H last. He leaves a wife and one child. Funeral services were conducted at the late residence on Pearl street at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon by Kev.

Dr. Fredericks and'the remains were taken to Seneca via the llock Island road and interred in the family cemetery. The employees of the organ factory had charge of the funeral services in Ottawa and the masons took charge of the remains at Seneca. The pall bear, ers were L. It.

and A. H. Merritleld, J-E. Olds, E. J.

Manchester, L. H. Weaver andO. Llndstrom. The floral offerings were quite numerous and came from employees of the organ factory and other friends.

The organ factory was closed Tuesday and the employees marched in a body to the depot. ft. F. Maxon was 37 years old; born and raised in Seneca. He had always resided In La Salle county and was both bookkeeper and stockholder in he Western Cottage Organ Company for three years past.

He was a member of the Haptist church, a loving husband and father and a true friend. Mrs. Margaret Kelly died Sunday morning between 10 and 11 o'clock at the residence of her son in Ottawa Center. Her death was very sudden as she ate a hearty breakfast and sat talking with the family until 10 o'clock when she was suddenly taken ill with heart failure and before a physician arrived she had breathed her last. Five children survive her; they are John, Martin, James and Mrs.

John Hal ley, of this city, Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Finn, of (J rand Crossing. The funeral will take place from St. Columba's church at 10 a.

in. today. Mrs. Kelly was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1 Hits, making her age 74 years. She had resided in Ottawa about fifty years and was one of the first settlers.

It seems we are to have another nasty raM' case for trial at the next term of the circuit court. A Mrs. August Eastemeyer lodged such a charge against John Pidgcon before Justice Hartley at La Salle on Tuesday. Mrs. E.

claims that he entered her house at night, and although she met him armed with a lamp in one hand and a revolver in the other, he disarmed her and committed the outrage, at the same time smashing some of her furniture, "which latter indignity so angered her that she had a warrant sworn out against him." Pidgeon was held to the grand Jury in the sunt of Mm IUimmI rlnuiil by Cow Itch. About rive years ago my blood was jKusoned with cow itch, and every spring since then I have been troubled with the (Miisott breaking out In large sores all over my lasly.

Moore, of the Grand Opera House, Des Moines, is an early settler in that part of Iowa, and has had a freat deal of experience In his time, le says: "At various times I have had acute attacks of bilious colic and violent pains in the stomach, and found nothing that gavenie relief like Chamtarlaln's Colic, Cholera and Di-arrho-a Remedy.

The Industry practically started with a visit made by Mr. Win. 1 leering, the harvester manufacturer, of Chicago, to Hon. Edwin II. Fitler, a rope manufacturer, and the present mayor of Philadelphia.

Mr. I leering subsequently found it so difficult to get perfect twine that a few years ago he pipped a large twi.io factory with the best and most modern machinery, and is now making his own twine. The value of the annual output of binder twine is about The I lock ford papers are about the only ones from any of the "Umuu" cities around us that are willing to admit "Our census Is all right." Tin ('''" says: "That much-abused individual, the census enumerator, ha? proved that he was all right after all Whether Kockford shows 'Um, more or less, it mav be assumed that the count is as correct as ixissiblc. and that the hard-worked, joor-paid name-enroliers have been faithful and thorough." Thus far in Ottawa we believe the general feeling is the same towards the much-maligned enumerator. Whether our iH)pulatlon is reported at or 15.0O0, more or less, right or wrong, the disposition is to accept it as the "official fact." The leading question now Is: "Are you provided wun a oouie or mam-berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrho-a Kemedv, as a sa re-guard against an attack or bowel complaint during the summer months No family can af- to risk being without this invalu able medicine (luring the hot weather.

Theories are cheap, but a first-class harvesting machine made or good material snouiu be selected evert at a slight difference in price. The Ciia.mi'iox Hinder is warranted to have more malleable iron and steel and less cast iron in its construction than any other machine in the market.

The machine is certainly very neat in appearance, and should be seen by farm ers who are intending to purchase. W. J. Emerson, a Davenport man, has started a small skunk farm. He started with a pair and now has a dozen or more.

He finds them as gentle and tractable as cats, the most perfect confidence existing neiween them and their keeper. They follow him about the city like young dogs, and are very sensible of the caresses that he lavishes upon them. Emerson," says he Itock Island Aryus, "thinks that when the skunk has had a chance to vindicate himself he will lie able to clear his character of some of the baleful aspersions that now cling to it, and to stand forth in his true light, an equal to tne mng-naireu poodle and the Thomas cat as a benefactor of the human race. At any rate he proposes to control the skunk market of the three cities and the ad jacent country, and he feels assured of enough appreciation on the part of the public to make the venture a suc cess." HI Wire Suffered from Eryalpela. Mr.

John O. Rogers, of Dana, Illi nois, writes as follows under date or March 27. "My wife was for. years an invajid from a blood trouble, and suffered terribly at times from erysipelas. She tried many remedies advertised as blood purifiers, but received no benefit.

Two Iowa editors he of the Du buque Tom was probably oneof them, is he tells the story, caneu on uie President lately and were Introduced bv Senator Allison, who assured his excellency that the gentlemen called simply to pay tneir respects arm warned no office. The President smiled and then amazed the party by making a Joke.

"Yes," said he, "1 have no ticed that Iowa is modest of lat Since a certain little occurrence a few weeks ago it has seemed as If at that time she got about all she wanted." Then all laughed heartily, and soon afterward the Iowa gentlemen took their leave. Gaining the outside, the tHlitors asked the senator what the President's joke was ataut.

Gapen Son, druggists, wish to remind their patrons that it Is a dangerous policy to wait until taken sick tafore buying a tattle of Cham-tarialn's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy.
