PATRICK MURRAY, who lived about three miles South of this village,'died at his home on Friday morning last, ef Inflammation of the bowels. He was sick only about a week and until a day or two before his death was not con­ sidered dangerous. He leaves a wife and thirteen children, besides a host of friends, to unoum his loss. WE shall Issue a fourteen column Supplement next week, and those of our business men who wish extra ad­ vertising should band in their copy at once. We shall print three thousand copies of the PLAINDEALER next week, which will bring your advertising to the attention of ovor fifteen thousand people. Advertisers think of this and/ take advantage of it. No one should find fault with the town in which he lives, as dead and dull, so long as he spends his money made there, out of town. Make your purchases at home,and thus contribute your part to make the town lively and prosperous. Every man owes some­ thing to the place In which he lives, and he sl.ould be ashamed to talk of it as his home when he neglects to do bis duty. EVERY once in a while one hears some fellow who would sell his soul for a nlckle, if be had the opportunity, rail out against the newspapers and loud-moutbedly proclaim that the newspaper* would do anything for money. These poor, despicable speci­ mens of humanity never realize that all men are net base like themselves, ft Is their invariable custotn trudge Others by themselves. AN excli tnge says • sixty years ago a bushel of wheat would buy only two yards of calico or shirting, now It will buy fifteen or twenty. Then a bushel ^of ear corn would buy only a pouod of 'nails, now it will, buy ten. Then it took a good cow to buy a pair of facto­ ry blankets, now/a common cow will pay for six pair fully as go#d.

ANOTHER scheme has just been evolved by the sharpers doing business with the farmers, they now make their notes read "not transferable," which el course, means that the farmer is to pay the party to whom he gives his obli­ gation, and him only. In a short time however it Is found in the hands of another party with aa e added to the "not" which makes the "note transfera ble." Farmers make a uote of this-- and uot for strangers.

PERSONS visiting Chicago should not fail to see Epstein's Dime Museum on Randolph Street. It is,'without question, the finest Museum in tiie West. They have on entire change of attractions each week, and four entire floors are occupied to show thel.r many curiosities, and one could spend ao en­ tire day In looking ever the many things of Interest to be seen there. They also have a stage performance every hour, which of Itself is more than worth the price of admission. When in Chicago do not fall to visit this Museum. You will find the at­ tendants all gentlemen in every sense of the word, and always ready to sho<v and explain to you anything you wish. Remember tbe place--Epstein's Dime Museum, 111 to 117 Randolph Street. / WE hear of a Ashing party that tarted out one day last week provls- toned with the following supplies: I Pack of cards'.

MEAD, whose large barn was burned on the morning of Sep. 2d, has his new barn all completed except paiutlng and workmen are now en­ gaged at that. This barn Is 42x60, with a wiug 30x50, and has been put up and^Jiulslied Inside of two weeks. This we call quick work, Mr. Mead says he was boss with A. Calkins as bead carpenter. .There is one feature In this matter that no one can fail to commend. Mr Mead bought all his lumber, nails, and everything used about this mammoth building at home, and employed none but home workmen, and now that he Is ready to replaoo. the bay which he lost by the fire, and must have, he is ready to buy that at home, provided he can get it anywhere near an cheap as it cau be procured elsewhere. Those who are willing to "live and let live" must ad- this is right-. * WHILE In Chicago a few days since we called at the store of A. M. Church, Jeweler. 112 01 <rk Street, and were both pleased and surprised at what we saw there. We do not exag- erate when we say he has the hand- somest arranged show window of any Jewelry house In Chicago. He has lately been refitting bis store, and in connection with a wholesale Jeweler, put in one of the finest stocks to be found In the city. In Watches, Jewel ry, Silver and Plated Ware, and In short everything usually kept in this line, he has an Immense stock to select Irom and his prices are aa lew as good Goods can be bought for anywhere. He also makes a specialty of repairing Fine Watches and Chronometers. Mr. Church is an old Lake County boy, and is well and favorably known both In Lake and McHenry Counties, and his many friends wi!l be glad to bear that he is on tbe road to sure prosperity. .

Although the night was dark, ||tho people came In from all directions and filled the house completely. About one hundred and fifty persons partook of the sup­ per, which for quantity and quality we never saw excelled. After feeding the multitude many baskets of frag­ ments were taken up the next morn­ ing and distributed by the ladies. We feel that great credit is due the ladles who had the management of the entertainment. They spared neither time nor labor to make it a complete success. A programme con­ sisting of mualc, tabiaux, Ac., was provided which occupied nearly two hours. The singing by "Ye Old Folks,'1 brought the house down at each repetition and was the leading feature of the entertainment, The proceeds amounted to the very hand­ some sum of #45,90 which goes toward making repairs on the M. E. church. Only a few of the ladlea who took active parts were members ef the church, but If they had been born Methodists they conld not have been more zealous In the werk. Not wish* Ing to discriminate where all did so well, yet we feel that Mrs. R. A Buck- land deserves special notice for her untiring efforts. She had the manage­ ment of the programme and showed herself equal to the occasion through* out the whols work. The members of the church feel deeply grateful to all who participated In tbe entertainment, the ladles who managed the afialr, tbe friends who so generously donated the excellent sup­ per, the singers youog and Old, Mrs. Frank Thompson who gave the use of her fine piano for the occasion, the ladles who played the piano, tbe Ring wood Band which Is always ready to assist In every good work, and all the friends from far and near, who by their presence and their dimes, con- trlbuted to tbe success of this long-to- be-remembetod New England Supper. WM. NICKLK. A Public-Spirited Citizen. The Clinton fill.) Public, of last week, publishes a four-column sketch of Hon. Clifton H. Moore, the wealth­ iest citizen of that city and county. Mr. Moore, who Is a native of Kirtland, Ohio, came to Pekin, 19 this state in 1839, and engaged In teaching. Hav­ ing In tbe meantime read law be was admitted to practice in 1841, and In August of that year located at Clinton where be has resided ever since. At that time be was the possessor of probably not over 9250; now he is the owner of perhaps not less than 10,000 acres of land in DeWlU County, be­ sides being part or sole owner of many thousands more In other counties of this state and In Iowa, his wealth, being estimated at not less than •1,000,000. He was for manj years as* soclated with the"1 la'te ^Tudge David Davis, of Bloomington, in laud opera­ tions, their partnership not having yet been entirely closed out. On the com­ pletion of a new MethoiHst church edi* flee at Clinton In 1871, Bfr. Moo**e pre­ sented to the church a new pipe organ costing 920.0C0; a gift wbfch he has jutt duplicated to a newly finished Presbyterian church at that place--the dedication of the instrument taking place in the presence of a large audi­ ence on Thursday la*t. Mr. Moore was a member of the State Constitutional Convention of 1870, and Is now nearly 70 years old. The Mistake* or Newspapers. The number of type used Vo an or­ dinary country newspaper Is about 600,000. that Is, tbe actual number ef bits of metal arranged in preparing a newspaper of such sizi for the press. We suppose but few people think of the printing trade as one of the most exact and particular handicrafts, but it is. In making type^ variations that might be allowed In the finest ma­ chinery. would recder type useles?. It is very rarely that type made by sep­ arate foundries can be used together without a great deal of trouble, even though they chould try to make It after the standard, We read once In a while of a wonderf JI piece of cabinet or mosaic work containing ten, twenty •r fifty thousand pieces, tbe maker of which has spent mouths or even years of labor In producing it; and tbe peo­ ple go to see it as a curiosity. But the most elaborate and carefully fitted pleca of work of this kind ever made does not compare for minuteness of detail and accuracy of fitting with that which the printer dees every day. The man who does tbe first Is consid­ ered a marvel of skill, and if a hundred of his pieces are put in wrong side up Or turned around It is not noticed in the general effect; but if a printer, In fitting ten times as many pleccs to­ gether in a single day, puts one the wrong way, everybody sees It and is amazed at the "stupid carelessness of these printers." Day by day the prospects for the defeat of tbe Irreclaimable Bour­ bons of Maryland are Improving. If the combioed elements of decency in that state can oust that pestiferous political pllgarllc, and that loud smell­ ing backer of Mr. Cleveland's reform administration, Mr. Eugene Hlggins. tbe people of this country will be en­ titled to give thanks for tbe privilege of passing through "Maryland, my Maryland," without having to hold their noses.
