A young lover would have hired a team, or else got a girl nearer home. Catherine Lewis fainted one night in "Olivette" but it didn't cause a ripple in the play. 'Twas only a cough, and they ' had a bottle of Dr. Bulls Cough Syrup hand, of course. THE Summer residents at Pistaqua Bay are already coming in, notwithstanding the cold weather.

Bennett, of ^ Richmond, while on his way to attend the funeral of his father, at Wauconda, AVi- one day last week, had the misfortune to lose his fine driving mare. When a.few miles east of this village she stepped on a 3GS8 stone Mid slipping, broke tlBMkleioitk. She had to WSPAPER subscribers who are in arrears should bear in mind that a dun iB not an impeachment of their integrity, but simply an outcroppiug of the pub­ lisher^ necessity, and gratitude for his kindly waiting on thetn so long, should prompt them to settle up. \ THE residence of H. C. Mead, west of jithis village, had a narrow escape from being destroyed by fire on Monday night last. When discovered the fire was under good headway but prompt action saved the building with but slight damage. The fire is supposed to have caught from the dropping of a match in some dry ^straw in the rear of the house. AN exchange says tha£ the successful applicants to the position of census tak­ ers will discover early that the undertak­ ing is much more of a burden than they imagine. In all cases those who assume the responsibility should appreciate the importance of accuracy in the perform­ ance of their duty. The pay is trivial considering the work to be done and the exactness expected. A WEATHER prophet says: "The mam­ moth and intricate machinery of the at­ mosphere, complicated by mysterious solar agencies, may evolve quite a differ­ ent season from that which we have sketched." If that means more rain, with frequent showers, followed by wet weather, we guess he is about right. It looks that way to us, anyway; but the complicated solar agencies may prevent the rain being accompanied by wet weather. We can't always tell. t = .jmaalL loost mr A DOCTOR has said this: "There has not been a time for years when great care, as to cleanliness, was so necessary as now. The open winter permitted dis­ ease germs to live and multiply. Every slop drain, cess-pool and other disease- breeding spot should be thoroughly cleansed and disinfected with lime, chlo­ ride of lime, sulphate of iron or copper, carbolicaeidor some other active germi­ cide. Cellars should be thoroughly cleaned and aired, privy vaults emptied and kept clean and safe by the use of some of the disinfectants named and every precaution taken to save life and ealth during what promises to be the ost sickly season known for years. A ttle negligence now may cost you your wn life, or take from you some of the embers of your family." MANAGER HENDERSON, of the Chicago 'Opera House, has just returned from New York where he has been engaging artists for the revival of The Cnystnl Slipper, which is to take place at the Chicago Opera House in June. The company will be the strongest ever organized in Amer­ ica for a production of burlesque, and the gorgeous scenery and spectacular effects of the original Crystal Siipper wiii be, if possible, surpassed in the coming revival. Miss Ida Mulle will play her former role of Cinderella, in which she was highly successful. Eddie Foy, the favorite comedian, will be seen In bis old part, and the company will be entirely made up of favorites.

WHEN a town ceases to grow it co mences to die, and if the people try kill each other in their business and go< names, so more rapidly will utter ru come to all. Stand together for the ad­ vancement of every citizen. If a man shows ability to prosper, do not pull him back through jealoutfy, or weigh him down with cold indifference. WHETHER early, whether, late there is one thing women hate; there is one thing they all do against their wishes; there is nothing 'neath the skies they so mortally despise as to have to go and wash the darned old dishes. They can cook aud play the host, fry potatoes, fix a roast, make a pudding, apple pie, and cake de­ licious; but they rave around like sinners, when they all get done their dinners, and go out to wash the darned old dirty dishes.--Ex. THE engagement of The Gondoliers at the Chicago Opera House commencing May 4th, will undoubtedly be the most interesting operatic event of the Chicago season. Judging from its success every where The Gondoliers is the most popu lar comic opera Gilbert & Sullivan have ever written. It should be remembered that the opera is now at the height of its success in London, New York, Philadel­ phia and Bostoji, and the company un­ der Manager Henderson's direction has had the greatest possible success in all the Western cities. It now returns to Chicago after a successful tour. The magnificent scenery and gorgeous cos­ tumes which characterized the first pro­ duction of the opera in Chicago will be recalled as the finest ever seen in comic opera in this country. The-cast has been greatly, strengthened. There are now five very popular comedians in the cast and three prima donna sopranos, whil$ all of the roles are in the hands of capa­ ble and favorite artists. It is stated that? the chorus which will be heard in The, Gondoliers is nearly twice as strong as that of the average comic opera organi­ zation, aud the production will be in every respect a rendition of light opera with all the magnificent surroundings of grand opera.

In 1837 he was married to Eliza Goodwin, daughter of David and Sarah Goodwin, aud in 1846 i he, with his family came to Illinois, pur­ chasing a farm of 120 acres in the town­ ship of Nunda, where he was engaged in agricultural pursuits. In 1871 he moved to Barreville where he was ap­ pointed Justice of the Peace and Post­ master, which offices hecontinued to hold until his death.

C. SHAI.ES AND FAMIIST. Xa fehS Triangle Again in Power? It must be very peculiar influence that is at work in the County Board to sefure the rejection • of the bills oi the lawyers engaged by State's Attorney Longe- necker to assist him in the prosecution of the Crouin assassin. T^ere was no such objection to the payment of sirailar bills incurred by State's"Xtt<«Hfey 0nnueft i n prosecuting the Anarchists and hoodlum. Indeed there has never before been any question of the right of a State's Attor­ ney to call in assistance in trying impor­ tant cases. It was necessary that Judge Longeneeker should have lawyers of high ability to assist blm in the Crouin trial, and it is equally necessary that the County of Cook should meet the ob- lagations thus incured without objection or delay, especially as there is no ques­ tion but that the bills &t« moderate and justly due. V + , The Chicago public wants to know whether the Croniu murderers or their accessories who have not been tried, or the instigators of the crime, have a con­ trolling influence over the County Board and by defeating these bills hope to Ipre- vent aid being rendered in the future if others eag&ged in &t»-Q£une jir in dieted.--Journal. t&'Superintendent Jackson, of Castle Garden, has testified before a Congres. sional committee that immigrants do not bring as much baggage to this country as formerly, since they have dis­ covered that clothing and household nec­ essaries are as cheap here as in the old country. Mr. Cleveland might take this fact as a subject#for his next free trade essay and explain to the workmen of America how the tariff is added tq,the price of the articles they purchase. |®~ Secretary Proctor has submitted to the Interior Department officials a pro­ position to enlist 1,000 Indians into the regular army. It is proposed to%fHc^> the regiment with graduates from Weiit Point, the subordinate grades to be filled by pupils who have been educated at Eastern schools. The details of the plan have not as yet been fully matured, but it is the opinion of Secretary Proctor that the Indians can be received into the regular army in a seperate regiment, both to their own ad vantage "and that of the Government. Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly tor May, 1890. Francesco Crispi, the Italian Premier, is undoubtedly, since the retirement of Bismarck from the Chancellorship of the German Empire, the most potent and and picturesque figure in European poli­ tics.
