IT has now rained in this section al­ most continually for the pant ten days, and at this writing there is very little prospect of its letting up. From all ac­ counts it is regular Porto Rico weather, except the heat. HALF a million pounds of butter are sold each week on the Board of Trade, Elgin, 111. It appears that the western cow is still doing business at the old stand, and if this is to be kept np, new ones will have to go into the business. ON acconnt of conflicting with the Party to be given by the members of St. Patrick's Church, the opening of Pro(. Bryhn'b Dancing Academy has been postponed until Nov. 10th, Grand Free night Nov. 3d. All interested should make a note. Grand Maas Meeting at Blohmond- Do not fail to hear Hon Richard Yates, son of Illinois great War Gov­ ernor, at Richmond, on Thursday even­ ing of this week, Oct. 27th. Let every voter tarn out aijd hear this gallant champion of the Republican cause. » 1 A SYCAMORE paper speaks of it as a strange th'ng: "There is a church in Ore­ gon without a hypocrite in it. The other Sunday the clergyman invited the hypo­ crites to stand up and show themselves and not a single person arose. The pas­ tor must have been greatly pleased." H. C. MEAD will go to Rockford to­ morrow, Thursday, to attend a meeting of the Chairmen and Secretaries of the Republican County Committees of the Eighth and iNinth Congresnional Dis­ tricts, together with the Republican State Central Committee, Senators Cul- loin, Mason and others.

THE Delavan Enterprise man moral­ izes thus: "A Racine preachor enlight­ ened his hearers last week on "what shall I do with my last week's wages." We feel for him. The chances are his salary was back a month or two at the time, and the logical answer would be get it if yon can." The day in which a minister is recognized as a man of God in a financial way and the obligation of the individual member toward his sup­ port promptly attended, is not yet at hand." FIRE AT PISTAaUA BAT. Hon. Wm. Lorimer's Handsome sew Bealdence Burnnd- The new residence of Hon. W m. Lori mer, which was built this season, and was about finishised and ready for occu­ pancy, was burned to the ground on Sunday night last. We understand the Architect and Contractor, one or both, were there on Sunday and had a fire in the Fire Place, and whether it caught from that or a defective chimney, is not known. The houso is said to have cost between six and seven thousand dollars, and was one of the handsomest outside of the city. The carpenters and paint­ ers had a day or two more work when it would have been wholly completed. It was partially insured but we did not Igarp for what amount. : GRANDBALL Yourself and Lady arecordially invited to attend a Grand Ball given by the Members of St. Patrick's Parish, at Stof­ fel's Hall.

Did Ton Bver Stop to Think f A writer says, did you ever stop to think how much more ready we are to praise people for an accidental good deed than we do peopl# whose whole lives are filled with good acts? A man may live a lifetime of uselessness or wickedness and then in a spirit of reform do an un­ expected good thing and the world praises him more than the constantly virtuous or generons individual. Per­ haps it is because we become accustomed to the virtue and goodness of a truly good person--we expect, as a matter of course, that he will do what is right. Bat we are surprised into enthusiasm at~ * the unexpected. Hollar Skatln* Coming Afram The rollar skate and the toboggan fad swept the country 10 .»r 15 years ago. But the interest in the sport wore out. But now the rollar skate has been per­ fected so that it threatens to revive the old sport. Palatial rinks are being erected all over the country, and old ones are being remodled and repaired. When the people find how easy it is to glide along on a ball beai ing roller skate it is be­ lieved by enthusiasts that the rinks will not be large enough to hold the skaters. This is a swift moving age. The ball bearing priuci >le is destroying the fric­ tion of life. We are moving about more rapidly each year and with lees expendi­ ture of human energy. Perhaps the twentieth century will find the entire hu­ man family gliding along on ball bear­ ing shoes. No size too large, no garment too cheap to be made to fit. We strive to pkase our customers, for our satisfied customers are our greatest advertisers. Ask them if we do as we advertise. Ringwood, III. J. E. CBIBTY, . RBPUBLIOAK MEETINGS.

In the Galesburgh, 111., Evening Mail. of Sept. 26th, appeared the following, which we publish by request. The de­ ceased was a cousin of Mrs. E'isha Hub­ bard of this village. DIED --At her residence, in Galesburgh, on Saturday, Sept. 24th, 1898, Mrs. Geo. Cole, in the 68 th year ot her age. The funeral of Mrs. Geo. (Jole was held yesterday afternoon at the late home on South Prairie street*, Rev. W. H. Geist- weit, pastor of the First Baptist church, conducted the services in the absence of Rev. W.

Converse, of Newton, Kan., daughters, and Will Gilbert, of Monmouth, a nephew of Mrs. Cole.

She went there for a visit at the home of her brother, Isaac Gilbert Two weeks ago this morning she arose early and went over to the home of a niece, Mrs. Perrine. She expected ^to take breakfast there. Both nouHes are in the same yard. Stepping into the house she was attacked very severely with indi­ gestion. This was not an unusual thing with her, and sheeeemed to recover short­ ly afterwards. She could not leave the bome of Mrs. i'errine, however. Wednesday the disease developed into pneumonia, and then she began to fail rapidly. During the next few days she was unconscious. Finally death came to her Saturday. Mrs. Cole was born March 12. 1831, in Troy, N. Y. She was the daughter of Charles W. and Harriet Van Tuyle Gilbert. She came to Gal^sburg with her parents in 1837, and ban since resided here. She was married Sept 20, 1848, to De'witt C. Turner. They had five children, three of whom are living- Mrs. Martha Y. Hubbard, LaCrosse, »y i« ; Charles Turner and Mrs. Hattie V. Weakley, of Galeaburg. The first hus­ band died in 1863. The widow was then married t<j George Warren Cole Nov. 10. 1869. They had two children, one' of whom is living, Jean S. Cole*. The deceased had always been a very active church worker. She became a member of the Old First church in Fpb- ruary, 1847, and joined the Second Presbyterian church by letter April 9, 1859. She attended Sunday school and was prominent in its work. Heal Estate Transfers. For week ending Oct. 24, inclusive.
