WE learn that Col by Bros., of this village, have bought the store and stook of goods of C. F, Hall, at Nunda, and will run the same as a branch to their store in this village.

THE, Wnlk which came oft in River­ side Hall on Wednesday last was not what was expected, and consequently the crowd were considerably dissatis­ fied.

Randall Brown, the world famous and only living "Mind Reader," who has recently excited so much interest in Woodstock and elsewhere,has made arrangements to favor the people of McHenry with one of his unparallelled entertainments extraordinary, on Fri­ day evening at Riverside Hall, when he will present the most startling and Inexplicable phenomena ever wit­ nessed on any stage. He will be assist­ ed by Lillie May Brown, the acknowl­ edged "Star of Mysteiy." in her won­ derful and exciting materialization of the dead, together with the demon­ stration of her great aud only "Super­ natural Vision." The entertainment will be' first-class in every respect, and will interest all classes as it combines both the intellec­ tual and humorous, while at the same time it excites wonder beyond meas­ ure. Mr. Brown will introduce a series of his celebrated Mind Reading tests which will be performed upon men well known in the community, ne will, for example tel! the amount of money in any person's pocket. Tel- the name of the town.county and State in which you were horn, #r will. Indeed, read any thoughts that/may be passing in the niiud of the one with whom he operates, but will not expose any of your little secrets so you need not be­ come alarmed. In adiclitloii to his lengthy programme of miud reading Mr. Brown performs and explains a large number of the latest aud most startling spirtualistic manifestations, those which have never been produced in public except by himself. Spirits will he made to appear before the audience, messages will be received from the dead, and the spirits will cause the tables and other articles of furui^twe~trf move about, while the 8wefete6t music will be discoursed by the phantom orchestra. Mr. Brown Is not a spiritualist, but believes that these strange perform­ ances of spirit mediums can be ac­ counted for ou the theorv of legerde­ main or some mental phenomenon, but little understood as yet. He will pro­ duce many very wonderful and new manifestations which are even more marvelous than anything ever attempt­ ed by the most noted spiritual medi­ ums in the world, and which are ac­ complished without the aid of disem­ bodied spirits. The entertainment will be one of the most interesting aud wonderful ever presented for your con­ sideration, and cannot fail to give the greatest satisfaction in conclusion we would say thst Mr. Brown made a tour through the North­ west some seven years ago, - at wliieh time he visited $ McHenry, and gave one of his unique performances; many of our citizens will remember him as he created a great sensation at the time. His entertainment then, how­ ever, was but child's play, compared with what it is at the preseut time, he having added to, and improved great­ ly In his programme, lie will, without doubt, have an over-flow lug house, as he justty deserves.

The receipts at their coueert; here were #203.60. The M. E. Church netted #83. The Sunday evening fol­ lowing they took the place of the choir in one of our city churches, the an­ nouncement b*ing m-i1e at the morn­ ing service. The large audience room was more than crowded, and the effect of the singing must have been remark­ able, for the next morning we asked a worthy christian gentleman what the subject of the discourse was that even­ ing, when his face assumed a thought­ ful mein, then blushed like a peony, and he finally answered, "Well, you'll have to ask ns something easier." Onr mutual friend, Mr. J. G. East­ wood, last Thursday received an ap­ pointment as Clerk in the Census De­ partment at Washington, and took the 4:14 p. M., train for his new field of la­ bor. While we are sorry to see him go we are glad to see him get a good thing, to which his merits entitle him. The genial, generous, gentlemanly "Mim" was a faithful soldier. Is a bache­ lor^ and very handsome, and we Shall wait' with some curiosity to learn whether he can resist the blandishments of leap year in-the National Capitol. The millinery department of Mrs. Church's establishment has been sold to Miss Maggie Buell, who will carry on the business. We bespeak for this most estimable young lady a liberal patronage, and as the circle of her ac­ quaintance widens, friends and patrous will proportionately increase. Our worthy Collector, J. M. Kimball, completed his books Saturday, and came out all right, but he says he does not want the office again. The entire levy was #10,989.04. .collected #9.926.42, delinquent #1,062.62, fees for collecting #198.53. The levy tor this school dis­ trict. No. 4, was #2,951.93, collected #2.716.17. delinquent #235.76, We have scarcely heard a word about the spring election. We have seen one candidate for collector. It looks as though the township offices will sown, be compelled to "seek the man," some­ thing hew to most of us. Our Pickle Factory has been leased for five years to Squire, Dingee & Co.. or Chicago, at #100 per month, and they are ottering 50 cents per bushel for cu­ cumbers. The new management give good references, whleh are needed when we remember the robbery of four or five yean* ago. Mr. Dacy's new temporary establish­ ment will soon he ready for ^occupancy. An office is being built on the south­ west corner, that will be a curiosity, the material used being cobble stones, cog-whoels, iron pumps* buzz saws, barbed wire, gas-pipe, «fcc^ Ac., In short almost anything that went through the fire that can attract at­ tention, and them Is no scarcity of ma­ terial, Mr. J. Randall Brown, the Mind Reader, was In town Saturday Evening, giving an entertaiment at National Hall. We cannot report the results. The familiar face of P. T. Barnuin, much larger than life, appears at sev­ eral places invour town, with the an­ nouncement that his "greatest show ou earth" will be here Juno 18th. We noticed SunJay that Dr. Howard L. Pratt Is back from the West on a visit to his friends here,^vho are to be counted In large numbers. Last week we took a trip to a neigh­ boring town, and while there made some inquiry in regard to' the feeling about the congressional election next fall, and the' general sentiment strongly favors the return of Mr. Sherwin. His course in congress, the the care and promptness he has mani­ fested in the transaction of busiuess entrusted to him by his constituents, aud his evident desire to represent the people of his district, rather than the professional politicians, have made him a host of»wartn friends who will make their influence felt when the time comes. We aao glad to i?ote the fact, for we sincerely believe that iu Mr. Sherwin the 4th Diitrlct has an honest, faithful, and able representa­ tive, and it is a time when tried aud true men are ueeded in our national councils. When we have such men let us iftake use vf them. We sec that the somewhat noted *'Ram bier" of Marengo i« to agaiu cor­ respond for the Democrat. He has en­ ergy and ability enough, and if he can be kept within proper bounds, will do the work well. A neighboring school district has two lively men In It, lastlyear's settlers there. For some reason unknown thev have conceived a terrible antipathy to the teacher, and have made it a point to show Itein every possible way. One of them went so far as to forbid the teacher crossing his (rented) land to gettotita boarding plaoe,'then called him the most approbrious names anv man could think of, and finished by making an assault. In which the peda­ gogue escaped personal injury with great djfilculty. The matter was taken under advisement by a J. P. The next morning as the instructor was passing through the wood lot of the other in a storinlie was hailed (with the gentle­ manly salutatian, "See here old man, the road is the place for you to travel."' and the speaker added ths consoling information that "Only dogs go through a man's premises without per­ mission." He seems inclined to vol­ unteer a good deal of instruction to the old settlers, and. ̂ strange to say, they don't-appreciate it. The two men we(re enemies till lately; now they seem fast friends. From the informa­ tion we have it seems like an attempt on the part of two new-comers to bull- dose the teacher, the Board and the entire district, and some of the old settlers tell us that theref w\ty be lively time at the district Election.

Potter, fifty years ago, at Fort Ann, and became a resident of Richmond in the year 1855. Mrs. Potter was the mother of seven children, four of whom are dead aAdthree living via: D, A. Potter and R. M. Potter, of Richmond and Mi"*. Hattie S. McConnel of Woodstock. She was not a member of any church, but through her long life gave evidence of a truly christain character, which Is more to be com­ mended than mere church membership or outward piety. The funeral sermon was preached by Mr. Earngy, of Woodstock, from a text selected by the family, "Weep not. for she is not dead, but sleepeth."
