THERE was a novel spelling contest in ftockford the other night. It was be tween the Methodists and Baptists-- twenty-seven on each side--and the for mer won. A great many of the Meth odists went down on the word "hallelujah' and the Baptists on "baptistery." BILL NVE says, "Blessed is the man who makes his mistakes early in life, re grets them and puts vaseline on the sore places, but woe to the man who cult! v&tes his errors, who stands off and ad mires them with pride. He is dead sure to perpetuate his folly by making a life long Pan-American ass of himself." SOMETIMES a typographical error adds test, as in one "local," which began "Dr. Smith, who is widely known as one of the most killful of our physicians, the 'a* having disappeared; with the usual depravity of inanimate things--or shall we say with a divination of the truth wholly unusual? TOLSTOI says that nobody should write for money. While we do not agree with Tolstoi exactly, we would call his attention to the fact that, like the ma |prity of editors, we do not write for tnoney; that is, judging from the scare- ' % of that article in our immediate vicinity, it is infered that we do not. HUBBARD, the "Boss" harness maker, of Nunda, has all he can do to keep up with his orders for those $12 single Har ness which he is making. They are said to be as good as you can buy elsewhere for $18 and $20. He makes them all himself by hand, using none but the best of material, and warrants them in every jportiimliir Call at his shop when in Kunda and see them. Plenty of good stuff in this sentiment: "There is a strong tendency in human nature to indulge in uncomplimentary expletives about one who doesn't agree with us. The better way is to omit ex pletives altogether, and recollect that every man has the inalienable right to do his own thinking for himself, and that no one is necessarily wrong simply be cause he does not agree with us." iT is said a recent decision of thecourts maintain that if a man wants to go faster than the man ahead of him he has a right to pass; if he is prevented by the other and an accident should happen thereby, the man thus obstructing the road is responsible for the damages J sustained. No man has a right to in- fringe on his rights in trying to pass. ' The above is good common sense aa veil i ®BlftW. £ Evanston this week.

If they ever come this way, we can assure them our latch string is always out. IT is reported in the Eastern news papers that the grip has crossed the At lantic and has already begun its work in many of the Eastern cities. We are of the opinion that it will not be greeted with jokes and laughter as before. It is a serious matter and a dangerous disease, It has carried thousands to the grave and left other thousands so weak that they are liable to die by the next attack People should take unusual care to avoid exposure to cold, and particularly dur ing October when so many think they can get along without a fire. » : __--_ POSTMASTER GENERAL WANAMAKEA has sent circulars to all postmasters calling their attention to the dead letter office and inviting a co-operation of the local press in calling the attention of the public to the great hmount of matter that goes to the dead letter office, mostly through carelessness.

The splendor with which Mr. Barrett produces each play in his repertoire gives this series of perform ances the character of a great dramatic festival. Mr. Barrett himself has never acted better and his magnificent imper sonations are received with a furore of applause; in fact a more cordial greeting has never been given to an actor in an American city than Mr Barrett has re ceived. Ot the performances that remain to be given, Thursday evening will be given up to "Rienzi" as will also Friday and Saturday evenings, but the Saturday matinee will be devoted to Francesca da Rimini," one of the most powerful and thrilling dramas ever seen on the Ameri can stage. The productions of Mr. Bar r 'tt have been unequaled in spectacu'ar magnificence and it will be long before western theatre goers will have such " dramatic treat aa the present r meat at the Chicago Opera House.

Communion services were held at the Congregational Church on Sunday morn ing last. •• H, A Mr. Andrews, of Irandce, sold a .car load of potatoes here last week at 90 cents per bushel. The usual number of fishermen arrived here on Saturday las& A number of our y^ung folks attended the dance at Crystal J(.ake on Thursday night of last week. We had the heaviest lain of the season on Thursday afternoon of last week which was much needed, as it was very dry, too much so for corn husking and plowing. Mins Winnie Werfhols is nicely settled in her dress making room, on Muiustreet, nd she would be glad to have her friends all ou her aud leave their orders for a new dress. J. W. Kee, of Chicago, spent Tuesday of last, week fishing'hate.' We hear he had very good luck. Conductor Roberts^Of the Crystal Lake Pa*isenger, spent two or three days here fishing last week. Miss Josephine Adamek\ of Elgin, is visiting with her many friends here. W. 1). Ringland, of Rochester. Minn., spent Sunday last with triends here. The German Lutherans built a new sidewalk in front of their church and par sonage on Monday of this week. They are never behind with improvements. Wm. Mortou shipped a car-load of shwk to Chicago on Monday of-this week. Miss B. Bevens, of Elgin, is the guest bf MjifK Nettie lM>illi|»s. Miss Nettie Phillip spent last week with friends in Elgitu Miss Ida Morton spent Sunday with friends in Elgin. Mrs. Hench and children visited with friends in Chicago a part of last week. Jesse Van Slyke, of McHenry, was a caller in town on Monday of this week. Did you ever gc-t left, E<1 ? The Street CommisMoner was down in a coal miue when last week's items were sent to press. Fred Phillips is ou the wick list. WELL, we have it at last, and let all •the gentlemen who indulge in profanity 1-ead it and then go out and put it in practice. A clergyman in New York says he has discovered a cure for swearing which never fails in its results, and he wants all who are addicted to that habit to try the cure. He says that when he is unexpectedly stung by a wasp, or en counters a nail on the floor when denuded of stockings, or barks his shins badly against the leg of a table, he at once re marks in a loud voice: "Beefsteak and onions!" proceeding directly afterwards to observe, "Ham and eggs!" aud if the tendency to swear has not by this time passed off, he adds, ' Bread and butter and a plate of ice-cream!" The reverend gentleman assures the world, that, armed with this simple weapon, nobody need in future ever Bwear at all. "Just as much satisfaction," he quaintly observes, "is derived from saying 'Pork and beans! as from emitting a gtring of swear words." THE newspaper that does its duty ia protecting public interest is sure to make enemies. But what of that? Enemies rather help a newspaper than otherwise especially when their hostility is generally known to arise from an independent and public-spirited course on the part of the journal that incurs their displeasure The paper that stands by the public ihterest is on solid ground, aud the ])eople will heartily support it in the advocacy of their rights. In every small town or city there are persons vbo think themselves entitled to oontrol everything and that opposition to any of their pro. ceedings is au offense equal to personal grievance or affront. They want to boss the community, newspapers included Tbev lack apprehension or understand ing of the true function of a newspaper iu relation to public interest, and if the could have their way the local press would be simply the organ .pl their private interests and aims. FOLLOWING the Barrett "'season at the Chicago Opera House conies The Merry Monarch, which is the latest success of that most popular of comedians, Francis Wilson. Mr. Wilson comes direct to the Chicago Opera House from the Broadway Theatre. New York, where he has had the most profitable engagement ever played by a comic opera in the metropolis People have been turned away nightly unable to obtain seats, and the police have been obliged to protest against the overcrowding of the theatre. The Merry Monarch goes with a roar of laughter from beginning to end. Funny as Mr Wilson was in The Oolah, he is infinitely more amusing in bis new opera. The plot is one of the funniest conceits possi ble, and there are several excellent com edy parts beside that of the popular star, Marie Janson being esjiecially captivat ing in a boy's part. The Merry Monarch has been aided in its great success by the beauty of the scenery and costumes while the music is heard everywhere and is full of captivating airs. The engage ment begins at the Chicago Opera House, Oct. 20th, and orders for seats should be mailed as early as possible. Hat sale at Evaneoaa Saturday, Oct. llth.
