Editor Pj.AiNDEALSR.wNot having written anything for our "leading county paper" for some time, we again resume tfce task with pleasure trying to pen a few Items of interest of the past two weeks. Since our last, Mr. E. Carter, of Jef. ferson, Iowa, has been here visiting friends and returne<| to again attend to business. Hfo wife accompanied him on the return trip, after quite a visit with parents and friends in this place. Mr. Walton, of Chicago, spent a few days with his daughter now attending school in this village. c By invitation of Jas. Bobbins, of Solon, quite a number of onr people at­ tended a meeting held In the school honee in that place on Snnday last. The sermon was by tlie Rev. L. J. Dinsmore, of McHenry, and was listened to by an appreciative audience, which gathered iu from the surrounding country, from Lewis Hatch's place of English Prarle to Capt. Tryon's. of Tryon's corners. The Ringwood band are to play four nights this week. Ben Raiuthorp spent a few days In Chicago last week, selecting goods to completa his stock. On Friday evening last the teacher, scholars and many friends of the school met at the M. E. church and heard the reysbrt of the school as read by Mr. Nickel for the five weeks ended Oct. 13, after which a number of pieces were rendered by the members of the first spelling class. In mentioning events of the past, Mr. Editor, allow us to nfention one to which your cor. held a card but was un­ avoidably absent; it being a birthday party given by Miss Nellie Peck and eujoyed by many of her young friends who tl^ciare that it wits as joyous an occasion as they ever witnessed. The r resents were numerous, and not ha v. ing received a list we can Out say they consisted of bonks, albums, vases, silver ware, contributed by young friends, aud a shining double eagle from her father. It is such occasions as these that strengthens the ties of kindred love aud social fri|utlsliip and will long be remembered by Nellie and her asso­ ciates with pleasure unbounded.

THE DAUBY MARKET. Fmm the Elgin Dally News, Oct. 17. There was a decided boom In butter on the board of trade Monday. ar.d two lots readied 36 cents on the call board The rolling price, however, ranged at 35). Tills is an advance of 2} cents over last weeks ruling figure, aud i&attrlb- utable to several ^causes. The mi))t supply is getting slort and butter is iu active demand ay all the large cen­ ters. Buyers who w«l on orders are are unable to meet the demands upon them, ami ar« anxious to secure goods. Factorymen sre enabled to hold stocks If not satisfied with the offers, and buyers are obliged to come to their terms. Most of the goods offered on the call board this week were taken nt seller's figures, and stocks Mn the hands of makers are therefore limited. The prospect for next week's market Is hopeful. Cheese about holds Its own, and prices rule same as last week, with sales a little largeR. When part skinchcese sells at ten cents there is a chance for factorymen and farmers to live. The New \ork market of Maturday is quoted at 35(036 cents for creamery biitter. and 30@32 for dairy; full cream cheese 11 C$12, and fair skims at 8@9. Good demand for both. ^ PARTICULAR NOTIC*, All persons knowing themselves in* debted to me are requested to call and settle the same without delay, as I need the money.

It is said that Charley Burrows is so much pleased with the Western country he lately visited, that he contemplates selling out in Richmond and seeking a new home further toward the setting snn. An epidemic catarrh, or ̂ Influenaa," has been prevalent hereabouts for some days past. Noses have been objects of most earnest solicitude, and the num­ ber of handkerchiefs In the "wash** un­ precedented. Notwithstanding the fears and fret, our farmers are now husking some as good corn as ever was raised in this section. A. M. Wray"'estimates his crop on one field of only lft -acres, at 2,000 bushels of ears. We should have before mentioned that Jimmy Bennett, late of Chicago has entered Into a copartnership with Tommy Bowers in the Billiard Hall, east side Main St. By careful and polite attention to business the new firm expect to secure a large Increase of patronage. Why should no young Udy in this free and enlightened Land, never ob­ ject to being hugged by the printer man? It would be Interfering with the freedom of the press! The above conundrum we have not yet copyrighted and our exchanges can use it by giving plenty of credit. A. J. Flitcraft, general agent Provi­ dent Life and Trust Con Philadelphia, struck the village on the last train Fri­ day eveuing, took Ibe application of Rer.

The lecture was repeated at Genoa Junction ou Sunday. _ * ' b Now that the long aud dark evenings of tlie fall are upon us, the necessity of street lam$e becomes more apparent. The petitions to the Village Board for the same are very numerously signed. So far we observe only two names on the side of the petition lieaded "Against." An exchange estimates the plekle crop of McHenry Co. the present season at 600.000 bushels. The Richmond fao- tory looks for a large increase of busi­ ness another season, as those who raised cucumbers in this vicinity have made money out of It. We hear ef one far­ mer who paid the rent of his rarm, •350, from the product of a rather small patch of vines. Charles Case, late Captain^ Co. K, 64th III. Vol.; Gardner S. Southworth, Private.

Wo saw onr next Assemblyman. Capt. Tryon, seeking the dej>ot^ptlchmond, Wednesday morning, Chicago being his objective point. He went to attend the meeting of the Repullcan State Committee,which was held that day at the Grand Pacific Hotel. We suppose all the necessary arrangements are made for the successful management of the political campaign during the «hort time left for active work. We hope the people will pile up a majority for Cliarly Tryon that wlllf bury his op- positron out of sight. On Friday Mrs. Henry Reliorst, liv­ ing just east of the village, on Sec. IS, was run over by a wagon loaded with three-quarters of a cord of wood and quite serlonsly Injured. Mr. Rehorst had struck a soft pleco or road near the lionse, and the load being bevvy oak wood, the team stopped and could not go on. Mrs. Rehorst noticing the trouble went out and took tlie lines to start the team while Mr. Rehorst lifted on the sunken wheel. Just as the team started she slipped and fell in such a position that the forward wheel passed diagonally over her right ankle and the hind wheel ever her right thigh. Im­ possible as It seems, no bones were broken, though the tissues about the ankle were badly bruised and burst open with the pressure of the great load. At this writing the patient Is doing as well as could bo oxpected. On Wednesday evening, the 11th Inst., a very enjoy$ble affair came off at tira uvtivv Oi mT« a\iu 5£vS, rfnTik Valentine, Hebron, the occasion being the "wooden", anniversary of their wedding. Notwithstanding the rain had made tho roads bad, the bouse was filled with a crowd of merry friends mid pleasure reigned supreme. The gifts showed the good sense of the donors, for almost every article was of real practical use--just such as the yet young couple oan make come handy In housekeeping. We have received no list or we would give It gladly; but we hear mentioned, among the gifts, two flue bureaus, two fine tables, high chair for the baby, camp-chair, an elegant divan, etc., the value of all represent- Ing a good one hundred dollars cash. Some members of Mrs. Vslentitie's family came frem far off Idaho to at­ tend. It must be very gratifying to have one's friends attest thel# esteem In so pleasant and substantial a manuer.

Mr. Boylan was a soldier during the war, and at Its dose went to Wisconsin. About two months sge he moved to Watertown, Dakota. His health which has been feeble ever sinoe he was iu the service, completely failed him. 11 lertly after his arrival in the Terri­ tory. and lie died early In /the present month. Through the efforts largely of his friend, one of the Senators from Ohio, he hid recently obtained a pen­ sion. Rev. Mr. Breakwell preached morn­ ing and evening at the Baptist ehurch, and Rev. Mr. DuBols, the new Metho­ dist minister, In hlschurch. He preaches again next Suuday evening. A somewhat unusual proposition was posted on tlie streets last week, to the effect that- a well known Wanconda gentleman on Saturday afternoon, at 1 o'clock, would reduce to civilisation, and drive, a wild mustang pony, and at the same time, for a consideration of 45.00 each, "and an oath on the Holy Bible never to divulge the Information or tench it toothers, he would "form a class for the purpose of teaching how to subdue aud govern any Individual of the animal kingdom. Including man and children (that the latter may be a comfort to their parents aud useful to society, instead of a pest and disgrace), as well as the mustang pony."
