All •re cordially invited. • W E would call che attention of our readers to the advertisment in another column ;©f White's Ten Pin- Alley and Shooting Gallery, which can be found In Lansing's Block, near the Die pot. THE horse ®f Nate Stevens, of Ring- wood, closed up the Anni versary Party by ruuning away and sadly demoralis­ ing a top buggy. He was hitched near the Hotel, and probably- became frightened by the playing of thte Band. Wjc would call the attention of our readers to the card of X. S. Colby, to be foqnd in anothercohmm.

Remember that they will be open the first of next week, in the store in Riverside Block, former­ ly occupied by Smith, Bro's & Co. - o~ QUITE a serious accident happened on the trotting track Northwest ef this village on Saturday last, in which Chas. Simmons and Mr. Ctopley got badly mixed. While exercising their horses on the track in some manner their Sulkys run together, and their youtig and spirited horses becoming un- «»tS|4J|eat)]e, made it quite lively for the drivers for % few minutes. The re- wilt was both Sulkys were completely demolished, and both Simmons and Crople}* more or le£s injured, but fortun­ ately not dangerously. Cropley's horse also succeeded in getting away and mashing through a board fence cut his leg quite severely, It was indeed for­ tunate that no one was kil.ed. * Oil account of the rain, the Band An­ niversary did not prove as enjoyable an aftair'as it would have been under other circumstances, but as everyone was praying for rain, we presume they were as well pleased in having, their prayers answered at that time, even if it did spoil the intended festivities. Early in the morning the weather looked threatening, but no raiu fell un­ til afternoon, and just as Dinner was1 be­ ing served in the Grove. Of course this put an end to all outdoor arrangement*. The Wauconda Baud was present and a goodly number were on the grounds from this Mud adjoining towns, and many more would have been here had it not rained. The Dance was of coursd adjourned* to Riverside Hall in the evening, where about 50 couples enjoy­ ed themselves in the best of manner, until the,"we small hours," oa Wednes­ day' morning. About 5 o'clock the weather cleared up and the Ball Game advertised came ofl, resulting in a score of 10 to 7 in favor of the Fox River Club of McHenry. Let us all take this matter gwod naturud. however, and hope that the next Anniversary may be celebrated under more favorable circum­ stances. IF-all the sensations of an attack of cholera morbus could be -concentrated and bottled up there would bo material to run a telegraph line three years. It isn't so much the name of the affliction that thSe sufferer cares foY; it's the hurt. You are first sensible of a mild form of trapeze acting go on under your watch chain. This grows until it seems as though there must be a half bushel of young puppies in there, so continu­ ous and. powerful Is the nauseating writhing of "the within." Then you feel as if you were turning a grind stone in a damp cellar, and the per­ spiration oozes and drips and Is clammy Then it pinches. That feels lobstery. Then it--.we mean. tjlie something that keeps hurting and troubling you all the time in there--gets awful heavy and presses your bread basket and pounds on it and falls all over it. and then gets up and jumps en it, and then you're ready to be laid between a layer of feathers and a top dressing of horse radish leaves or hot flannel petticoats-- or something soothing, anyhow.-- When you try to tell how bad you feel your legs snap back and before you can get half through yoitr story some­ thing with the power of a mad bull hitched io a baby cart, or the sudden­ ness of a yellow dog tied/ to a wash dish, jerks your head and feet together and knocks the basin of hot water art over the three old ladies who have run in to see yotf dfe, atid then the din is horrible.' Thbn the consoling remark is made: "Oh! he'll have a good many spasms yet before be dies." If this don't scare you to death immediately, you'll be apt to survive the indescriba­ ble agonies you are passing through, and may yet live to tell about them.

FITZSIMMONS & EvANSON. *H12 POLAND CHINA HOG. About two weeks ago we made a vis­ it to the farm of W. W. Ellsworth, breeder of the celebrated Poland Chtua Hog. Mr. Ellsworth resides 7J miles from McHenry and 4£ miles Northwest of Woodstock, where for the past eight years he has devoted his attention to the raising of this splendid breed of Hogs, and that he has succeeded is evi­ denced by the stock which he now has to show. If there is such a thing as a handsome hog, they can be seen at Mr. Ellsworth's farm. He has now on hand 85 old hogs, ranging from under one to four years old,'30 of which are breed­ ing sows, and 155 as fine pigs as ever was shown. Besides these he has sold 26 this season at prices ranging trom 815 to 860. He now has pigs 2£ months old for which he has refused 850, and one that he refuses 875 for. Nothing we can say here will half do these pigs justice. They must, be seen to be ap­ preciated. But this we dosay.no one who once sees his splendid stock of Hogs and Pigs will hesitate for a moment in saying that taken all in all, they are the best show to be found, in the Northwest. Mr. Ellsworth spares neither time nor money, and has now brought this breed of hogs to a stand­ ard never before equalled by any other breeder. The best breeders who have visited his farm say that no one in Ohio or elsewhere, where they have visited can begin to show as fine stock. As we said before we cannot half do them justice bv anything we can say here, but would advise all who pass that way to call and see them for them­ selves. We will guarantee any man who keeps liOgs that, does call there will never be satisfied after until he is the owner of one or more of this splen­ did breed. Mr. Ellsworth will of course have some of them on exhibition at the County Fairs, where they are sure to, attract attention. W PERSONA La A. D.

THE SEPTEMBER NUMUER of "Peter­ son Magazine" is on our tAble. ahead ofailotheiv. as usual. In addition to a beautiful steel engraving "The Wood­ land Nylnph*" and a superb, double- size, colored. s;eel fashion plate, there are two colored patterns, one for a Car­ riage Rug, the other "Book-Markers on (.'aid Board." Though this is a magazine of fashion and art primarily, it is also one of literature; and no lady's bookat all approaches it in its powerful stories and novelets.- In the present number, we have, among other articles, "The Fortunes of Philippa Fairfax, by Mrs. Fiances Hodgson Burnett, whose "Lass O'Lowrie;" has just made such a sensation in literary world, hav­ ing been pronounced the best American novel that has appeared for years. Yet the present novelet^ "Philippa Fair­ fax," is, in most respects, even better. In addition to this writer, "Peterson" boasts such contributors as Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, Frank Lee Beuedict.-- Mrs. R. Harding Davis, Marietta IIoKey, the auther of ".Josiah Allen's Wife," etc, etc. The terms of this, (lie cheapest and best of the lady's book, are but two dollars a year, with vei~y great deductions to clubs.

A speedy recovery of their usual good health, is the sincere wish of their many friends, For some reason (no dflnhtagood one) at present unknown to the writer, the M. E.

Will some of the members please come forward and ex­ plain. and thus avoid if possible a rep­ etition of last Sabbath's occurrence, for Certainly without singing.'any church soon becomes a dead institution, The entalinment given by Elsinsr & Wells at the M.

Why it is that a first class entertainment Is not more highly appreciated by our people we are unable to say, but this we do know* should a one-horse fifteen cent monkey show chance to stop here, the proprie­ tor would be made happy with a crowd­ ed house and a well filled purse. To all appearance our enterprising hardware firm. Vasey & Holmes are do­ ing a lively business, having now two wagons on the road loaded with tin­ ware and notions. They also contem­ plate starting the third onesoou. which certainly is good indications of pros­ perity. A Lawn Festival Is now talked of in this place, for the benefit of the sabbath school. Just when or where it will be we are not now able to say. We are informed that Mr. Ed. Barn­ ey. the Horse Jockey, has again traded horses and has this time succeeded in getting a bobtail nag perfectly sound but altogether too transparent to cast a shadow. We would advise him to re­ tain him to look through at the next eclipse. Judging by the looks of the animal it would far excel smoked glass. BISMARK. GREENWOOD. > EDITOR PLAIXDEALER:--Still scorch- id by "Old Sol's" rays we wither, while back to mother dust, dry and •ear. crumbles vegetation beneath our feet. Some of our oldest settlers claim that they have never seen the surface of the ground iu a more dry or parched condition than at present at this sea­ son of the year. This being the case too much care cannot be exerciscd In guarding against conflagrations which so often prove so destructive and dis­ astrous. Our community was thrown into quite an excitement on Saturday eve­ ning last by the announcement and sight of fire, which proved to be the grain stacks belonging to Mr. George Barnard who resides about one mile East of the village. The fire was first discovered by a son of Mr. Barnard, coming from a stack of wheat about nUdway from the ground to the top and upon the west side. The origin of the fire is a mystery which will proba­ bly never be explained. None of the family arc in the habit of smoking, nor had there been any person present dur­ ing -the day wiio did smoke. The atuouut of damagt done is not as great as was at first feared. By the prompt and energetic labor of those present the fire was kept from spreading to more than two stacks of wheat. Of these the outer,surface was burned to the depth of a foot or more. By the con­ stant application of water the flames were kept under subjection while the stacks were torn to pieces. The graiu though not an entire loss will of course bo more or less damaged by the ordeal through which it has passed. Mr. Barnard is an industrous, hard word­ ing farmer, and could illy afford to sus­ tain the loss he would have sustained had it not been for the timely assist­ ance rendered by the -peighbors who worked nobly and with a will as If sav­ ing their own property, for all of which Mr. Bernard is very grateful.-- The fine new barn which he had just com pie red and filled with hay woulcf have been consumed with the rest.-- Some attribute it to spontaneous com­ bustion, while others have a different view of the matter. Insurance agents had called upon Mr. B. that same day but we understand he did not invest. We understand our School Board have engaged the services of Miss Emma Murphy for the Primary De­ partment of the Winter Term. Mr. J. J. Philbrick and family start on Wednesday of this week on a visit to friends through the Eastern States. Farmers who have threshed report a good yield of fine quality. Oats from 25 to 75 bushels per acre.

Hartman and Ells­ worth. On police: Hartman, Horn and Ellsworth. Nearly every one of our people that are met on the street, especially the youth, wears a rilibou badge of some kind. That which is most conspicuous and most generally worn is a simple bow of red ribbon and signifies allegi­ ance to the temperauce pledge of The Ladies* Temperance Union; aud, al­ though there are many who have as­ sumed this badge, there'a great many who have earned it and who wear it seemingly with pride. Another clique sports a badge constructed of blue rib­ bon, the tacit meaning of which is •'Never Refuse " It is needless to say that this is worn by few. Aud a gradual dropping ofl of the blue is already no­ ticeable. There is quite a mania for badges, in fact, I noticed one man with a strip of brown tissue paper artistical­ ly tied iu his buttonhole. "Tliat." said he. "is the bummer badge." I expect the adoption of the latter sort will be quite limited if not a total failure- There is said to be a fine of twenty-five cents in penalty for any Omission of the duty of constantly wearing "The Red." While badges are of no conse­ quence we all hope that the cause which claims it may succeed, aud If it does not become permanent, that the effect of i.'s works may. The Ladies Tomper- auce Union hold a meeting at the Bap­ tist Church on Friday Evening, Aug.. 17th. Let us all attend and assist. It seems that the President of the Board of Trustees believes in exercis­ ing his authority to the utmost, and a little farther. Several days ago the street commissioner was directed by him to commence work on the street in front of his (the President's) house. Mr. Lincoln, the commissioner, gave reasons why work was unfeasible at that place at that time; but all to no purpose, for a pompous official order was issued at once froin the "Presi­ dent's Office" insisting ou Lincoln's im­ mediate resignation and delivery of the books. Other members of the board claim a voice iu the matter, but Ells- worth.seeonded by Esq, Jackson.claims the prerogative of discharging sucli town officers at will, and a fanciful and an erratic will it is!
