PEOPLE in this section are almost in /fi|e condition of the Irishmen, who "lay / speechless upon his back for si± weeks in I month of August, Mid all his cry was i water, water, water!" This country | never was so dry in the recollection of I the oldest inhabitant. THE next matinee at the Richmond llack will be held on Saturday of this iieek, Sept. 16.

So says the Richmond Gazette, You cannot legally kill prairie chickens 3 || Illinois until September 15. Gov. Altgeld vetoed the game law bill passed . r.jjgy the last legislature and therefore the Old law stands as it was. Many people every year seem to be of theopinion that jlugust 15 chickens can be killed lawfully , tout this is wrong. Mas. J. B. BLAKE, of Chicago, is visit- ing with Wends here this week. HOWARD R.

If he does this he may make the delinquent subscribers happy by making the dew (due) drop. EVERYONE should bear in mind the great sale of stock, farming tools, etc. of J. R.

SOME time ago a traveling fence artist came along and in a neighboring town o. number of merchants paid him a good cash sum for daubing their names on fence boards. Last week a farmer sends each one a bill for f 2 rent of fence for the month of July and insists upon payment. Serves them right.

She was five years old, sired by George O, and was a very promising young mare.; She had trotted miles in 2:31. AN exchange says that a young lady in a neighboring town waived her handker­ chief at a stranger and in three days Ithey were married. After three days |nore she waved a fl'atiron at her new husband's head and three days later he waved a divorce at her, and the knight of the quill wants to know what the wild waves are saying. I A GERMAN went into one of the Chester hotels and as he took his seat a waiter came up and bowed politely. "Wie geits I" said the German, also bowing po­ litely. "Wheat cakes" shouted the wait­ er, mistaking the salutation for an order. "Nein, nein!" said the German. "Nine! said the waiter, "you'Jl be lucky if you get three."--Ex, A ROCKFORD fanner, who has made A specialty of sheep raising fend who has always been a Republican, was led astray last fall and voted the Democratic ticket. The steady decline in the wool market has caused him many regrets and the other day a neighbor asked him if be had sheared his sheep. "Yes," he replied, *'I sheared my sheep, but I sheared them tail-end foremost. I was ashamed to look them in the face." GOLDEN ROD is now in the height of its glory along the wayside and is especially beautiful this summer, the dry spell ap­ parently having no effect upon it.

The barns just -south of the Agricultural buildiog are filled with live stock from all countries, the Russian, French and Ger­ man exhibits being among the beet of the foreign displays. The best cow from the best herd in the world and the best horse from the best stock farm on earth are found here. It is an opportun­ ity for seeing live stock such as comes but once during a life time. REPORTS reach us that the hunters are already shooting docks. Some of our local nimrods should investigate this matter and bring the law breakers to understand" that they do not own the earth even if they are from Chicago. If the shooting is allowed to continue un­ til the 15th, there will be little sport left for those who are willing to live within the bounds of the law. Those who wil­ fully disobey the game law should be punished, regardless of race, oolor or size of their po'eket-books. IT has been shown by analysis that a young person weighing 154 pounds is composed of 96 pounds of water, 3 pounds of white of egg. a little less than 1 pound of pure glue, 34% pounds of fat 8^ pounds of phosphate of lime, 1 pound of carbonate of lime, 3 ounces of sugar and starch, 7 ounces of floride of calcium, 6 ounces of phosphate of magnesia and a little ordinary table salt.

W. Owen, UcHeniy, IK. Organized gangs of burglars are going the rounds of the country burglarizing houses because they think the occupants of these houses have taken their money out of the banks and hidden it in their houses. A burglar is a would-be mur­ derer and our people should be prepared for these night marauders. Shoot them without ceremony; they'll shoot you if you interfere with their movements. The one who gets the drop on the other first is the live man in dealing with burg­ lars. They have no business in your house and they shriiild be carried out dead. ACCORDING to the tradition of the let­ ter "r," oysters are now in season. It is a strange fact that the beginning of oys­ ters and of business should come togeth­ er. Oysters are no vacation dish. They do not go with straw bats and russet shoes and blazers, but with sack coats and caps and a rush for a noon day five- minute lunch. The oyster is not festive except when in the employment of the church, and even then it is in the serious business of paying thechurch debt. It is a financial agent wherever it is. Ice­ cream and cake go well enough for vaca­ tion time, but when business begins the oyster is the sustaining force. A srccESSFfL exhibition of a Danish milking machine invented and patented by Sans Nelson, of Copenhagen, was held recently on John Skoming's farm east of Elgin. The machine rests in a self-ad­ justed frame on the cow, and all four teats are milked simultaneously from the roots down by two pairs of elastic and feathering rolling segments, having rock­ ing, approaching and receeding move­ ments. The operator stands at arms length from the cow and turns a crank connected with the main shaft by a flat link chain. Cleanliness and availability are the two points claimed for the ma­ chine. There is talk of organizing a stock company with $100,000 capital for manufacturing the machine. PATRONIBE the merchant who adver­ tises. You do not visit your neighbor unless asked to call and you do not at­ tend a party or wedding without an in­ vitation; then why should you intrude on the privacy of a store-keeper? His goods are old, shelfworn, and out of style. Give him a wide berth and buy of the livo business man who not only in­ vites yon to come and see him every day, but educates and keeps you posted as to what is new and popular in his line of goods. Advertisements and advertisers are the greatest educators of the age, and he who "never reads an advertise­ ment" lives in the back woods, fastens his suspenders with a shingle nail, and has not had a shave or hair cut since Jackson licked the British.--Ex. A NEW swindle upon honest and unsus­ pecting farmers has been brought to light, and this is the way the scheme is operated: Swindler No. 1 calls upon a farmer with a patent wagon tongue, and informs him that having made a big thing out of it, he is on his way home, with on­ ly this county to sell. He tells the farmer that he can have it for f250, and if he wants it to write to him. In a few days patent right man No. 2 comes along. He has heard that the farmer has the right ot the county for the patent wagon tongue, and as he made a big thing of it in Pennsylvania, he wants to buy the right of the county, and offers the farm­ er $400 and pays $10 to bind the bar­ gain. The farmer writes to No. 1 and sends him his note for $250. He never hears of either of the men again, but his note comes up for collection in a neigh­ boring town, and Mr. Farmer is out $240.

Custom Houses from time to time perhaps none has, of late years, attracted so much attention as seven barrels of water from the baptis­ mal pool of the Jordan River This re­ markable shipment was consigned by United States Consul at Jerusalem to the Jerusalem and the Crucifixion Pano­ rama, on Wabash Avenue, where it has just been delivered. Eight large casks were started by camel train overland from the Jordon to Joppa, the Joppa of Bible days, but one camel with its burden was lost by falling over a rocky precipice, so but seven bar­ rels reached their destination. The an­ nouncement of the arrival of this ship­ ment by the New York and Chicago papers brought scores of people to the great Panorama, all anxious to procure some of this remarkable liquid; some wanted it for healing purposes, some as souvenirs, others for baptismal cere­ monies. Mr. Gross, the manager of this remarkable and enterprising religions exhibition, said the idea of the importa­ tion was to present at stated time small bottles of this water to visitors to this magnificent religions Exhibition, which comprises not only the Panorama of Jerusalem and the Crucifixion, but also the world-famous painting, "Christ's Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem." 11 you want your clothes altered, fitted and cleaned, fi. 3#iri$a witt do |Ok « eplendid job. ; t v i , MiBs flattie Ballon spent Tuesday at Cary, Pearl and Grace McClure, who have beeh spending the summer in our village, leit for Crown Point on Tuesday.

Misses Hattie and Eva Ballon, May Hamilton and Mary St. Clair attended the wedding of Edith Kern and Wallace Pease last Tuesday evening at the home of the bride. A serious accident occurred at Crystal Lake last Thursday night. As the ice train pulled out from the ice house, about 6:30 o'clocu, Geo. Allen, a young man who works at the ice works, climbed on the rear car to ride up to the second street crossing, where he lived, and in getting off the ear at the street, in some way, fell on the track and the rear car ran over both legs. Doctors Watson and Ballou were called to attend the case but the young man died before any operation was performed. ^ JPaouliaritlea of the Siamese. The wealthy Siamese, including the king, practically turn night into day. 411 important political meetinfts are held in the night, and four o'clock in the morning is the hour at which Bangkok fashionables retire until four o'clock the succeeding afternoon. There is a semi- European theatre in Bangkok, which was erected by one of the present pred­ ecessors, and there are plenty of outdoor theatrical (terformauce* by natives, the Siamese being a pleasure-loving people and fond of all sorts of entertainments. The worst thing that can happen to a man in Siam is to get into debt, from which there is never any escape, owing to the exhorbitant interest charged. Once in debt there is no appeal; the debtor be- stripped of his clothes and compelled to work in fetters, generally for the rest ol his life, to pay the interest. Drunkards are not permitted to give testimony in the law courts of Siam. The Buddhist priests, clad in yellow robes are to be seen everywhere in Bang­ kok ; and it is quite common for young men to enter the priesthood, which af­ fords an easy and luxurious existence, owing to the liberality of the populace toward onyone sanctified to the service of Buddha.--From "Siam's CapitalV' in Demorest's Family Magazine for Octo­ ber. \ s/ Auction JStaJe.

Chicago on Fire One of the most interesting and won­ derful exhibitions outside of the World's Fair, at Chicago, is the great Panorama of the CHICAGO FIRE. NO written descrip­ tion can do justice to this remarkable scene. It presents the city it was while burning, in which are shown in a startling manner the fire ruins and panic that makes this conflagration the most awful calamity of the century. Everyone going to the World'Fair to see thesights should take occasion to view this thrill­ ing scene. It is situated at 130 Michigan Avenue and is easy of access from all the down-tojfn hotels.
