Mrs. Cook saw the shine of the dark lantern, nudg ed her husbann, who got his eyes open just in season to see the de parture of the thieves. On dressing the next morning Cook was short a pair of pants and has not been able to find them since. Asa Livingston was next complimented.

The bottom gar ment was the vest, which contained considerable money and a gold watch, and this was fortunately left.

Indiana and Illinois appear to have absorbed nearly all the presidential talent the country. The former i state is especially rich in material. It has no less than five available candidates, of which three McDonald, Hendricks and Voorhees are democrats, while two Harrison and Gresham are republicans.

Illinois has an indefinite number of possibilities. Senator Logan, Secretary of War Lincoln and Judge David Davis have been "mentioned" as republi- can camuuaies, wnne ex-ijovernor Palmer, Congressman Morrison, Mayor Harrison and, of course, Springer, have their eyes '-sot" on the democratic nomination. If these two states were not situated so near the center of gravity, the accumulation of so much presidential talent within their borders might tend to make the rest of the country tip up. 2 erarmus op its great ircnrr.

-Strong of Beloit, he nevertheless wishes to render a few words of tribute to his memory. Dr. Henry Partridge Strong was born in Brownington, Feb. 8, 1832. He was graduated from the Castleton medical college and removed to Beloit in 1853.

Although so young at that time, he had become one of the prominent men of Orleans county, and many who will read these lines remember him among their personal friends. In his adopted home he had become having of the one of the leading men, been elected president State Medical Association, mayor of Beloit for several years, director of the city schools, alderman, city clerk, and for the last twelve years postmaster of Beloit. The leading daily of the city, which appeared in mourning in his honor, and devotes several columns to his memory, said of him "Beloit mourns for a loved friend. A revered physician, a noble citizen is dead." From a letter written by a sister-in-law of the deceased, to Mrs. Dr.

Blanchard of this place we quote a few lines. "The funeral was the largest ever in Beloit, and more strong men wept over his grave. He had hosts of friends and many among the poor." In closing we would quote one more sentence from the Beloit Daily Press: "A man in the broadest sense, full grown and splendid, has fallen." Newport Center.

The venerable EH Chamberlin, our oldest citizen, reached his92d birthday, on Sunday, July 8, in good health and looking as if he might live many years more.

He had just bought a pair of spectacles, in his door yard, of a travelling optician. and on entering his house fell dead The funeral services were conducted by Rev. E. P. Wild on "Wednesday.

Mr. Hayden was feeling better on the morninsr of his death than usual and was anticipating much pleasure from a visit with Mr. Culver, his wife's brother, who had just come, after several years separation, to make him a visit. His death, apparently, was instantaneous. Mr.

Hayden had been a man of great energy and power in his day and was one of the pioneers in railroad building. East -AJtmirjr. The storm of the 4th was very se vere and did much damage to fruit trees, fences, etc. Mr. Pettingill, who has been out of health several months, is slowly recovering.

Mr. Pearson, who is a thorough dentist and skillful workman, not given to bragging, in a very modest way gives an amount ofjiseful information in his little volume which will be of benefit to all who read it. The work was neatly done in Mr. "Webster's job office.

Some of the fire company, who have faithfully labored for its efficiency and done much to keep it alive were very much dissatisfied by the spirit manifested by some, in the village meeting held one week ago. It is doubtful whether they will continue in the company long er. There is a meeting to-night to see whether the company will disband or reorganize. "We hope those who have stood by the company will not, on account of the enmities, caprices and niggardlyness of a few men, allow the company to disorganize, to the hazard of their own interests and the risk of the property of those who have given them so cold encouragement.

Parker was drowned between the dock and the steamer, Clara Parker, at Astoria, Oregon, a For some time the financial affairs of the mining company have not been in a sound condition, and for the last two months they have failed to pay their help. About ten days ago there was a general strike, and threat- emngs of violence on the pail of the miners. Thev captured the store and appropriated the goods, and were so belligerent that it seemed impossible to quell their notous proceedings by the officers of the law. The situation was made known to the governor and he at once issued orders for the militia to proceed to the place and compel submission.

Accordingly the Rutland, Burling ton, St. Albans, Montpelier and Bradford companies repaired to Ely and in the early morning of last Saturday surprised and captured the town and the angry strikers. A posse of civil officers were present and arrested the ringleaders, and it is hoped no further trouble will oc cur, lhe mmmg company is pre paring to pay the miners a portion of their dues.
