"THERE isn't any room to doubt that the coming winter is to be awful cold. The prophets all say so, and the man is insane that disputes the prophets. They have found moss growing thick on the trees, frogs standing on their heads, sun­ flowers pointing toward the north pole, grapevines running around the poles in­ stead ot up them, and there are a thous­ and other signs to show that every hu­ man being will be frozen as still as a chip before February." This information is given by a coal dealer, and therefore must be reliable. He of course carries a large stock of all kinds of coal. THE Chicago milk men have raised the price of milk to eight cents a quart and try to make it appear that the farmers are responsible. We would like to see the matter investigated to see how mnch more the dealers themselves make than the farmers. There is no class of men in Chicago who make more profit on their investments or retire from business soon­ er than the milk men and we have little sympathy or patience with this raising the price of the most necessary article of food in the city. This is a trust that bears most heavily on the poor and should be discouraged by all humane people.---.Ex. THE latest tramp swindle is worked in the following manner: Two rogues watch the papers for estray notices, when one of them goes and looks at the animal. Of course the unsuspecting farmer, on application, shows the beast, and the fellow decides thjat it is not bis, then he returns to his partner and describes ft minutely to him. Number two goes to the farmer and after proving by a thor­ ough description that he is the animal's owner, says he cannot take it away and offers to sell it at a bargain. The farmer buys and a few days, later the rightful owner comes along and claims the ani­ mal, and the(farmer is out*' just that much! ! • THE Superintendent of Railway Miil service has issued the following order: Lake Geneva Wis., and Elgin, 111., R. P. clerfe, extend run *so as to begin at Chicago, 111., and end at Lake Geneva, Wis.; increase in distance, 42.94 miles, making whole distance 87.09 miles. In connection with this extension additional R. P. O. service will be established on this line, to be performed on trains 65 and 66, making double daily R. P. O. service between Chicago, 111, and Lake Geneva, Wis. Service between Elgin and Turner, 111., will be in addition to the Chicago, Freeport and Dubuque R. P. O.; between Turner aud Chicago it will be in addition to the Chicago, Freeport and Dubuque and Chicago and Cedar Rapids R. P. O. The line will be known as the Chicago and Lake Geneva R. P. O. A recent case in an Indiana court tends to further settle the liability of tel­ egraph companies. A dispatch was sent to Julius L. Rappapot, of Peoria, 111. It was shown that the messenger boy had visited Rappapofs place and not finding him in had left a notice. The court held that proper effort and diligence were nec­ essary in order to release the telegraph company from liability, and that the messenger boy should have been dis­ patched the second time; that nothing short of this could be considered as proper diligence. An appeal has been taken, and the final deeisfon will consti­ tute a precedent. l&^President Clarkson, of the National Republican committee, has called a meet­ ing of that body to be held in Washing­ ton Nov. 23d, at which date the time and place of holding the next National Re­ publican Convention will be determined upon. Omaha, Neb , Minneapolis and St Paul, Minn., Chicago, Cincinnati and several other western cities are making strenuous efforts to have the convention held in their respective towns. The time of holding the convention will not be later than the first part of June, and perhaps the last week in May, as there seems to be a prevailing sentiment for an early convention next year.

PARKER, Kan, Oct. 21,1891. We are at Schoolboys" Delight! vhich BMUS that *his town is fringed oq three rides with an 800 acre orchard. Mr. Parker, the namesake of this burg, also owns the orchard, and keeps no dogs, lor which he is greatly beloved by all good boys who love apples. This town is but two years old, and already plane are on foot to erect evaporators and a factory, and this young orchard, with its numerous plum and cherry trees, bnt principally apple trees, is regarded as a very important factor in the build­ ing up of a new and prosperous little city. It is estimated that in from three to five years the apple business here will employ at least one thousand persons. Parker is 60 miles south-west of Kansas City, in Linn Co. Kansas. Apropos, Sen­ ator Plumb speaks here to-night. LATER.--We have heard Bro. Plumb, and his very Plumb speeches,actions and name, must proceed from a level head. He dished np Plum sauco to the utter discomfort of the People's party. We cannot see where he left a peg for the calamity shriekers to hang the ghost of a wisp of hay upon. It was annihilation complete. But the most hopelessly blind are those who won't see. The Alliance men ol Kansas seem possessed of a mail ness which precedes destruction. How long, oh Lord, how long will animals bearing the semblance of men, trample reason, right and justice in the mire of prejudice, sophistry, ignorance and su- perestitution. And these chumps walk the earth, the statues of men, carrying the destiny of this grandest of nations in their brutish ballots, while noble, high- minded women, as far above them in in­ telligence and moral sense as the heavens are above the earth, continue to be held down in the servile bondage of disfran­ chisement. A man whose vote cam be trafficked for a nickel's worth of beer, or other pigmy favor, or who has not brains enough to know a lie when he bears it or reads it, must be protected in his ballot; while woman must meekly bow her neck to the yoke, on pain of being frowned up­ on as masculine and out of her sphere.

Well, I have discovered something new in Kansas. It is a hilarious beverage, indulged in by Good Templars, called hop tea. I don't think it contains many hops but it does make the boys hop, more or less. I also notice various cider mills on an extensive scale. A new in­ dustry also has sprung up here; to-wit, the manufacture of paper from corn husks. This has been a good year on the whole in Kansas. Good for crops, good for rainmakers, and also good for kickers. It is here, as well as elsewhere, a note­ worthy fact that the more blesslngs God showers upon some men, the harder they kick. For instance. Lo, the poor Dem­ ocrat, whose untutored mind sees in the coming tin plate, the failure of all his hopes prayers and prophecies. But what causes this truly unhappy kicker more spasmodic misery than all else, is the fact that the wicked, measly, Republican high tariff McKinley Bill had twelve more ar­ ticles on the free list than did the free trade Mills Bill. It tangles and bedizzens his brain by day and haunts his spectral visions by night, that the Blaine reciproc­ ity idea is at the bottom of it all, making alike the Alliance and Democrat voters McKinley men in spite of themselves. Kick on, sad man of the large foot, against the pricks. Yonr torture will culminate about Nov. 3d. R. D. SOOTT. AUCTION SALE.

Ham­ ilton, on Wednesday of lastweek. The State Apron Sale and Oyster "Sup­ per, under the MMfrices of the ladies of the St. John Eplsoopal church, at Mor­ ton's Hall, OB Wednesday evening of last week, was a grand success, both socially and financially. The proceeds of the evening were $70. The society were well pleased with their effort. John Sears, who has been very sick at Gary for the past three or four months, was here on Wednesday of last week. His friends here were very glad to see him out again. Algonquin was thrown into a great state of excitement on Saturday, at 9:80 a. m., when Robert Shufeldt's barn was discovered to be on fire. The wind was blowing a regular gale, and it looked for a time that there would be nothing kit on the farm. But just as they thought they would have to give up the house, the wind took a shift and the honse was saved. But that was all that was saved. The large barn, corn crib, and all the other outbuildings were swept away. John Kalahan, the tenant, is a heavy loser, as the barn contained 100 tons of hay, 1200 bushels of oats, and all of his straw, aud theoorn crib had 50 big loads of com in it. We are informed there was f1000 insurance in the Rockford Insur­ ance Co. They have no idee, how the fire' originated, as the men were all in the field husking when they discovered the fire, and Mr. Kalahan went to Chicago that morning to sell his milk. He was telephoned to and arrived home on the 2:15 train. But it was very .evident that the lire started in the very top of the barn, as it broke out at the cupola first, and it was very lucky for Algonquin that it was situated at the outskirts of town and that the wind was in the right direc­ tion to blow the cinders away from town, as the cinders set fires nearly a mile away. Mrs. Fillmore and son, of Rowley, towa, are visiting her mother, Mrs. Roe- enkrans, here. Rev. 0. M. Van Searingen, of Crystal Lake, was calling on the ladies of the Congregational church here on Tuesday of last week. Mrs. H. P.
