BILL NYE defines a newspaper thus and 1 conclude it is about correct: It is an encyclopedia, a poem, a dictionary, a time table, a romance, a guide to politi­ cal resume, a ground plan of the civilized wdrld, a low priced iaultum in parvo. It is a sermon, a song, a circus, an obitu­ ary, a shipwreck, a symphony in solid brevier, a medley of life and death, a grand aggregation of man's glory and his shame. It is, in short, a bird's eye view of all the magnanimity and mean­ ness, the joys and sorrows, births and deaths, the pride and poverty <rf the world, all for a few cents. • v , You often see it--"State of Illinois, McHenry County, SS." It is to be found at the beginning of acknowledgements and other legal documents, but not one is a dozes cs.u tell you what that cabal­ istic "SS" is for. To be short and to the point, the abbreviation is a contraction of the latin word "scilicet" which is also contraction, having originally been written as "scire licate," neither of whfth you will note has more than one "s." The woid entire, or in its abbreviated state, is equivalent to the old English to-wit," still widely Used, the design of both being simply to call attention to what follows. DIED--At his home in Ringwood, Nov. ft, 18^2, ot paralysis, Lyman Bacon, aged 74 years, 4 months and 8 days. * KVman Bacon was born in Steuben Co., N. Y , June 26,1818, and was married to Mary A. Dates, Feb., 1843, thev living together neai ly 50 yearn. Eight child­ ren were born to them, of whom two died In infaucy.and one at the age of fifteen. Two are now residing in Iowa; a eon and a daughter in thiB State; the son in Ringwood, and the daughter in Frank- linville, and a son in Geneva, Wis. Next to the love the deceased felt for his family was the interest he took in his country, for which he entered the army of the rebellion in the 95th regiment, of Illinois volunteers, Jan. 23d, 1864. From thence he was transferred to the 47th 111. infantry, under captain George It vans, and was discharged Jan. 25,1866. He participated in several battles, first at Nashville, Tenn., then Lookont Moun­ tain and Big Shanty. He w»s with Gen. Sherman in the memorable March to the Sea, and in battles at Spanish Fort and Pea Ridge. He also had a son who did service in the army. Disease had de­ stroyed for him the memory of his past life, but the part speut as a soldier was ever present, showing us that the love for bio country's flag could never be effaced from his mind. Nothing gave him greater pleasure than to meet a comrade, and call up reminiscences of the past, in which they had shared like experiences together. Hewasakind hus­ band, a tender father and a devoted friend, and will be remembered affection­ ately by all who knew him. The funeral was attended by the writer of this, at the Methodist Church, and a large concourse of sympathising friends / were present on the occasion to pay the OF all the months this is the mourner i tribute of respect to the remains, this is the ghastly skeleton at the feast of the year; it is a month of rain that sobs down the lattices and comes moan­ ing to the door; a month of hollow, dreary sounds, like voices from across the river that separates the worlds. It is a month of ashen skies and brown, sadly brown and desolate landscapes, of trees that groan and sigh and wail like striken women weeping over the tombs of their dead. There is nothing more dreary, nothing more like the horrid gloom of a Dante's dream, than a morning in November. And then you know it was the 8th of November that great landslide occurred. Eh ?

I don't thing God loves this church very much, because none of you ever die. I don't think you love each other, because I have never married any of you. I don't think you love me, as you have not paid me my salary, and your donations are mouldy fruits and wormy apples, and by their fruits ye shall know them. Brothers, I am going away from you to a better place. I have been called to be chaplin of the Anamosa penitentiary. 'Where I go ye cannot come, but £ go to prepare a place for you.' Good bye."-- Waukon Democrat. Paid His Bet. I'HICAGO, NOV. 11,1992. EDITOR PLAINDEALER :--We had the pleasure of Seeing one of the boys from McHenry pay an election bet in a pecu­ liar manner last night, Horace Rill, the chief usher of Uavlin's theatre made a wager with the door-keeper of the Pano­ rama of Gettysburg that if Cleveland was elected that he would take a wheel­ barrow and ride him through the princi­ pal streets on the south side, and if Har­ rison won Cliff Hendley, the loser, was to do the same. They each put up a forfeit so as to hind the bet. As it happened Horace had to do the wheeling. After election the winner made the proposition to let him off on paymeut of one third of the forfeit, He said that the Republican party was not made of that kind of ma­ terial, and would be true to his party and his first vote, even if it was a loser. He is the only Republican in the employ of Havlin's theatre, so you can imagine what kind of a time be has had during the last two months. They give him the credit at the theatre of being the gamiest in the Republican party for one who cast, his first vote. The procession start ed Thursday night, headed by a drum corps and a large banner on which was printed in large letters, "I voted for Harrison and am taking my medicine," followed by a large red fire and fifty Democrats in line. He was cheered from street to street. It took nearly two hours to make the trip. At the end of the trip three cheers were given for him, for the plucky way he held out. He was asked what he thought of the Republican party, and answered by telling them to wait until 1896 and they would find out to their sorrow. COM, THE Woodstock Democrat has the fol­ lowing: "A serious accident occurred on the farm of John Hagert, four miles southwest ot this city, last Saturday morning, which resulted in the death of his daughter Emma, thirteen years old. A young man by the name of .lay John­ son, who was working for Elmer Cannan, near what is known as the Mounds started for home to visit his parents. TheHagert home lying between his home and where he worked, the Johnson boy in crossing it met the girl's brother and having a rifle in his possession, the boys began shooting at marks. After tiring of this sport, the boys went to the barn and sat down in one of the stalls, the Johnson boy sitting down on a fork that leaned .against the manger. Several children were on the driveway, among them being the young lady, who play fully reached through the opening in front of the manger and pulled the fork out from under him. In falling the gun, which the young man had across his arm was discharged, the ball passing through an inch board, then entered the girl's body near the heart, coming out of her right shoulder. She dropped to the floor but getliug tip ran toward the house falling again and expired before she could be carried into the house. Coroner Cook was notified and empaneled a jury which brought in a verdict of accidental death The funeral services were held from the German Presbyterian Church last Mon day and a large gathering of neighbors and friends were present to attest their their deep sympathy for the afflicted par­ ents."
