The approach of cold weather brings with it some few pleasant gastronomic associations, prominent among which are buckwheat pancake's and mince pies. Both are seasonable now. The brown of the pancake and the crust of the pie covers a multitude of inconsistencies, for no man can tell the ingredients. Buckwheat worth a barrel may have been mixed with wheat Hour worth $2.50 per barrel in unknown quantities, and the result of tlio mixture may come from the griddle smoking with the buckwheat trademark.

They get along fast in Dakota, and to prove it a story is told of a recently elected Judge. Ho had been a sort of free lance in his profession, and had incurred the enmity of a certain lawyer.

"But, your "Motion denied, 1 say." "Your Honor, one word, if you please." a word, sir." "Your Honor seems to liave a prejudice against mo." "You're right I have," said the Judge.

A reporter for th JOUHNAI, found him at the Clifton house. Replying to the reporter as whff" would likely bo Speaker of the House, he said: "The contest is about equally divided between Charles E. Fuller, J. B. Mes- aick, and 1).

T. Littler. All these gen tlemen have had legislative experience and either would make an acceptable Speaker. Mr. Fuller, however, was the acting Speaker of the last Gen- oral Assembly after the admissior of tho Member from the Thirty-fourtl District, and tho fact that he dispatched business without pointers from either side would give him an advantage in the race; but it is by no means certain as to who will bo the successful candidate, as there is always room foi combinations.

It may bo Fuller against the Held, and in that case no one can tell who will bo the Speaker. It is safe, however, to say that tho Republicans being in tho majority the House will bo promptly and business will bo proceeded with from tho very hour the organization is effected." "How about the organization of tho Senate?" "Gen. J. N. lleeso has boon named for Secretary of that body, but I do not know that ho is a candidate; but if lie is he will likely be selected without much opposition." "Who is spoken of as most likely to bo chosen President pro tern of tho Senate?" "I have hoard the names of II.

K. Wheeler and J. S. Cochran. of your own city, mentioned quite frequently in that connection; but it may bo that Senator Curtis or Senator Adams will be given tho place, or perhaps Thoo.

S. Chapman, who was a member of tho last House, a bright and active man, will bo tendered the honor for tho reason that he won a gallant victory in a Democratic district, composed of the counties of Jersey, Greene and Scott."

Wo need a bettor protection to property and life, so'that tho occupation of tho anarchists will find no footing in Illinois." "Inasmuch as tho Senators who were elected this year will take part in tho election of a successor to Senator Cullom, who do you think will bo tho successful candidate?" "It seems to mo that Cullom Will be his own successor. Ho has made a most excellent Senator, and 1 do not think there is any disposition to make a change.

Ho stands well in Congress, and being popular at homo, ho will hardly fail of an election in any event; but tho probability is ho will bo reelected without opposition." "Will appropriation complete tho State House?" "Tho commissioners toll mo It will." "How soon will tho work bo finished?" "I would say that it will take six months yet." "What is said of the legality of tho convict labor amendment voted on at the recent election?" "I have heard a number of good lawyers say that it is very doubtful, owing to certain informalities, whether it can be proclaimed a part of tho constitution."

There wore some in favor of $1,000 damages, while a few went up to $8,000.

There were several in favor of $3,000, and finally the gentlemen on $3,500. "What do you think of the verdict?" waa asked of J. II. Stearns, of the firm of Neff Stearns. "I don't like it.

It is the laconic reply. "It's a verdict," said James I. Neff. The attorneys for Kachelhoffer, the Messrs. Stoskopf and Meacham, are by no means sa'tisfied.

They will take an appeal. HON. I. THOMPSON, General Solicitor for tho Minnesota Northwestern road, was in tho city today, on his way to Chicago.

The town of Oregon, in Ogle County, uis for many years been contesting the of certain bonds issued to tlio builders of the C. I.

railroad. The aso has at last reached a decision in tho supreme court of tlio United States it Washington. The opinion of the jourt is by Justice Batchford, and is vgaiast the town. The grounds of the decision are briefly given below: The validity of the bonds was at- acked in the court below upon the ground of various informalities and regularities, mostly technical, in the irocoedings which led to the issue of the bonds. This court holds that there vas in tho execution of tho bonds no fraud or irregularities; that the appoint- nont of the surveyor who issued them vas valid, ami that the town is estopped the recital in tho bonds from assuring, as against a bona lido holder, that ho statutory conditions wore not duly jompliod with.

Dave Young seemed to be the ringleader; as usual, where there is any sport he is in the midst of it. 'It looked as though the entire town had turned out.

The cause of this was a race between a bay horse owned by A. E. Seise and brown horse, owned by Underwood. Recently Seise made a bluff at Morse King, the trusted employee of Underwood, that his horse could beat "Old Jim" on Taylor's track, best two out of three mile heats, for $100, and King accepted the wager. Both horses were brought down here to be put in training.

At 2 o'clock the horses came upon tho track. Col. Buck was starter, J. K. P.

Fleming and S. F. Taylor judges. Some difllculty in getting a good start was experienced, but finally they got the word go. From the start it was seen that the Soiso horse was no stepper, and it was a complete walk away for the brown horse.

Tho people in general who were acquainted with both horses know Seiso had made a rash bet. Neither horse is very fast, but tho amount of money made it an interesting matter for tho Lena people, as it is said some $300 or $400 was up on the race. Two heats were won by Old Jim in 3:13 and 3:18, distancing both times the Seise horse. J. K.

P. Fleming, after the race, bought the Seise horse. in Improvement Notes. Baior Seyfarth's new stable is of brick and is one of Ihe most substantial in this part of the country. A new walk has been put down front of the High School building.

Next Monday night, at Germania hall, "Called Back" will bo presented. The Sacramento, Itcconl contains the following in reference to thjo company: "Called Back" was played last night before a largo audience. It was in all essential respects better presented than when first played here some months ago, although the two leading characters are in the same hands in this engagement.

Mr. Grismer as Gilbert Vaughn gives greater evidence of depth of purpose in his interpretation of characters assumed than in most other parts ho essays. There are very few pathetic roles assumed by Miss Davis which she is more successful in enlisting the entire-sympathy of her auditors than that of Pauline." "SILVER SPUR." Thanksgiving night, at the Opera house, Scoll Marble's "Silver Spur" will be played by a first-class company. It is a piece that is creating quite a sensation wherever presented. The Temperance Revival.

At the gospel temperance meeting, at Temperance hall, last night, Mr. Montague addressed himself more particularly to the young men who were present, making a powerful and eloquent appeal in behalf of the cause he so ably champions. Ho reviewed the careers of leading men who had fallen victims to the cup tliat intoxicates, and his reasoning was logical and earnest. The singing is a special feature of the meetings, and Prof. Iluckins never tiros in tho good work.

lie is ably assisted by a choir and tho accompanists. There was pledge signing after tho general talk, and speeches by ladies and gentleman, after which the meeting was dismissed. All are invited to attend to-night. In the Aurora Post appears some facts regarding an old settler of Illinois that will bo pursued with interest: When L. B.

Judson, a native of Massachusetts, came from Michigan in 1834, and settled in Kendall county, this was a new and untried country. He was one of the few gallant and enterprising who were willing to grapple with the dangers, the hardships and the inconveniences of the then new west. Illinois had at that about 200,000 inhabitants, or less than one sixteenth of its present population, and the greater portion of that number WHS distributed through the Southern half of the state. Hickory Jackson was then president of the United States. Our two U.

S. Senators were John M. Robinson and Ellas Kent Kane. Wo had only three congressmen (where now we have twenty) and they were John Reynolds, Zadock Casey and Wm. L.

May. They are now sleeping the sleep of the forgotten dead. Kane county was not then organized and tho entire north portion of the state was composed of the counties of JoDaviess, Cook, Putman, LaSalle, Peoria and Rock Island and our single representative in the state senate was James W. Stephenson, from whom Stephenson county was named. John Hamlin was the representative in the Jower house.

The same parts of the state now have 75 senators and representatives. Mr. Judson came to Illinois fifty-two years ago yesterday and to-day he is celebrating his eightieth birthday. He was a man twenty-eight years old when he settled here and he has seen a host of and wonderful changes. He was born before Abraham Lincoln and was a boy of sixteen when Gen.

Grant was ushered into the world. He was thirty-one years older than Grover Cleveland. He cast his first presidential vote in 1828, the second time a chief magistrate was chosen by popular suffrage. To look at his erect frame and to hoar his clear, ringing voice one can hardly bring himself to realize that he has seen and passed so many milestones of the years. Yesterday Mrs.

Judson returned from Kansas, where she has been visiting, and to-day Frank is out from the big city. They will assist in an informal celebration of the 80th anniversary of the husband and father tonight. May the old gentleman's years "be long in the land." PersonalSParagraplis. Dr. M.

BENSON Charged With Takiug Tkousauds. The Jo Daviess county grand jury, on Tuesday found indictments against George Fielding and wife, of Apple Hiver, for and for burning and concealing valuable papers. Fielding is charged with having secretly abstracted from the residenco of his father-in-law, the late Esquire William Loavitt, of Apple River, tho sum of $0,000 in money and bonda immediately after the hitter's death, he having had access to tho sick man's room as nurse and confidential friend.

President Haines, of the Rockford street car line, received a letter from the city clerk of Rockford, which contained the following: "In accordance with resolution passed by the city council Nov. 1, am instructed to notify your company to remove all surplus dirt at once from between your tracks throughout the city, as it is liable to become frozen and will then become dangerous to people driving in the streets and may cause damages against tho city." Mr. llaines wrote a reply saying the stockholders never received a dollar dividend; that the ordinance is burdensome, and may be the means of driving tho company out of existence. A Sudden Summons.
