Mr. Lightheart, the contractor, seems to be a rusher, and will push the work to a speedy completion. WE learn tha(/the residence of Thomas Wright, southeast of this village, on the River road, waB, with its entire contents, destroyed by fire on 8unday afternoon last. The family were temporarily absent and consequently nothing was saved. We did not learn whether or not there was any insurance. ^ WE have nothing new to report this week in. regard to the manufacturing plants that are seeking a location here. The committee appointed at the last meeting are earnestly at work, with a good prospect of success, and as soon as they are ready to report we shall hasten to inform the public of the result. IK a doctor makes a mistake he buries it; if a merchant makes a mistake he 'never tells it; if a lawyer makes a mis­ take he crawls out of it; but if an editor makes a mistake he puts it on a large sheet of paper for the world to look at, and in every community there are cranks who think they are models of wisdom be- jw> they occasionally discover them. ACCORDING to a London newspaper a cow that wore a bell having been run over and killed on the railway, the owner brought suit against the railway com­ pany for damages. It was proved that the engineer blew the whistle loudly, and tried to frighten the cow off the track. But the farmer's lawyer also proved that the cow rang her bell and tried to fright­ en the engineof the track, and so the jury -decided in the fanner's favor,.,** •¥; •• PROF. J. A.

ON account of the many entertain­ ments this week, in which the members are engaged, the regular meeting of the Eastern Star for this Wednesday even­ ing will be postponed until the next reg­ ular.

He kept the only hotel in that place (the Pratt House) for many yeaw, besides owning other landed property in that village and vicinity. He was about 80 years of age. TBE address before the Union Temper­ ance Meeting, by Mrs. A. M. Pilcher, of Portage, Wis., on Sunday evening, was well attended and one of the best we have listened to for many a day. Mrs. Pilcher is an easy and graceful speaker and she handled the subject in an able and telling manner. All who listened to her went home well pleased with their evenings entertainment. THE Improvement Committee, appoint­ ed to devise means to secure one or both of the Manufacturing Plants, that wish to locate here, have purchased fifteen acres of land, which they will immediate­ ly plat and put upon the market at a nominal price, and thus secure the funds necessary to locate a manufacturing; plant in our midst. This is a move in the right direction. The committee will immediately visit the citizens of our vil­ lage and surrounding country, explain matters and offer the lots for sale.

ONE week from to-night, May 23, oc­ curs the Annual May Party at Riverside Hall, which is being looked forward to with pleasure by the entire dancing pub­ lic. Slocum's full orchestra will furnish the music, and all know that this is the finest orchestra in the Northwest, while mine host Story has gained an enviable reputation as a caterer to the wants of tbe dancing public. All can rest assured of a good time who attend on the 23d. ONE of our Iowa exchanges has the following curious item: H. H. Sperry publishes the Pella Blade, S. H. Sperry publishes the Iowa City Herald, and L. E. Sperry publishes the Grundy County Herald, and another striking coinci­ dence is that each has a man named Allyn working in his office, and neither of the Sperrye or the Allyns are in any way related to the others. f OUR Public School will dose for Summer Vacation about the middl June.

When the new building is completed and better facilities are furnished tbe increased benefits de­ rived therefrom will be untold. THBRE is no excuse for a man to make mistakes in his paper said a know-all re­ cently. Of course not. He has lots of spare time; nothing to do but rustle local; clean the rollers; set type and sweep the floor; pen short items; fold papers and when done with that he can put in idle moments mailing papers, talk to customers, distribute typ#; bring coal and water; hunt the shears and write editorials; damn the delinquents; and take a "blessing" from the whole force; throw out tough men who come >flto the sanctum to spoil things and disfigure the scribes cranium.

Mr. Compton is one of the oldest settlers, having lived in Lake county for over fifty years. He lost his wife something over a year ago, and having sold his farm where he had lived so many years, he informs us that he finds time resting heavily on his hands. He proposes, on or about June 1st to take a trip to the home of his younger days, in Seneca county, New York, and spend a few days among the scenes and associations of his youth, He is a man that is highly respected by all who know him, and his many friends here wish Mm a pleasant visit. IT is a common thing to LW cheated, robbed and swindled by peddlers, agents, canvassers, and these sort of men, but people will forget the lessons learned from one day to another &u«3 uvtui to bite at the next unreasonable offer held out to them. The PLAIXDEALER is not given to giving advice, but it will of­ fer this little msxim, whicfak people will do well to remember: Do iiot expect others, and especially strangers, to give you something for nothing. If they make you unreasonable offers tft terapt you, just set it down the agent is a swin­ dler, and will get the beet of you. Another thing, our village authorities should be careful who tls&y issue license to, and for the business engaged in. WHEN a recent divorce case was brought up in the Lee county eircuiteourt recently, on a motion for temporary support and solicitor's fees. Judge Shaw said: "I know of no sadder case than one where parties have lived together through a long life and as the end draws near and they need the care, sympathy and love of each other more than ever before, that they must separate, and each take a different path; but if such must be, then the court will see to it that a just share of the property is given to the wife. That usually the frugal care and watchfuiiness of a faithful wife does as much toward the accumulation of property as do the efforts of the husband, and when storm comes a court must see that justice is done. A wife who has helped to accumulate property, and reared a.family of children, need not a beggar at her husband's door, nor she be humiliated by her lack of A court will see that she iB proti COUNCIL ROOM, May 8,1894.
