It was indeed a fenaffq Banquet, and f e ladies are en­ titled to grjat praise for their efforts in this line. And as to the programme it was a grand treat (for all. It was some­ thing ont of the usual line of such enter­ tainments, and took the entire audience by storm and many times sinre we have heard it remarked that they had heard entertainments in the city that was not halt as good, for which they had paid 50 cents. We do not exajrerate when we Say it was Lard to beat and reflected great credit on those having the enter­ tainment in charge. Nothing we can say will do it justice. It must be seen to be appr ciated. The Supper and enter­ tainment netted the ladies the handsom 'sum of $38.45. JOHNS.

He bad been in poor h"Pttl4h for the past two or three yeare> and for the past year had failed rapidly, therefore bis death was not unexpected. Perhaps no man in Woodstock was bet­ ter known throughout the county, than John S. Meddlar, and whereev^r known he was honored and respected.

T^ie 27th and 28th of September at Richmond, was held the largest Sunday ^chool Convention ever held in this founty. 103 delegates were present, nearly alio1 the townnhips being repre­ sented. A great deal of benefit was de­ rived from the normal lessons taught by Mr. G. W. Miller oiParis, III., a state field worker of great ability and enthu­ siasm. Much attention was paid to psi- mary work on which many helpful sugges­ tions were made by Mrs. Ballard, of Chi­ cago, who has had such wonderful sac- cess in a mission school there. Motion songs, blackboard work, Calisthenics and 1 seon stories were approved.

Silclta va. Shannon et al.--A Great Vio- tory for Attorney O. P. Barnes. On Monday of this week Attorney C. P. Barnes received a telegram from C. C. Duffy, clerk of the Appellate court at Ot­ tawa that the court had graiited a new trial in the above case, ai.d that it was remanded to the Circuit Court of Mc­ Henry county for a new trial and Mr. Barnes is jubilant over the result. The decree in the above case was rendered by Judge Chas. E. Fuller, of Belvidere, at the September term, 1898, of our circuit court, and on an appeal being taken by Mr. Shannon to the Appellate court de­ cree of Judge Fuller was affirmed by that court. Up to that , time Mr. Shannon had been represented by a Chicago law­ yer, but after being defeated both in the Circuit and Appellate courts he secured the services of Mr. Barnes, w ho immedi­ ately began working on the case to see ii the decisions of the Circuit and Appellate courts could be set aside. The first step of Mr. Barnes was to secure a superse­ deas from J udge Crabtree of the Appel­ late courty and when the case was again presented to that court on a writ of error by Attorney Barnes the same court that had before aitirmed the case, by their de­ cision rendered on Monday of this week, now reverse the same and order a re-trial in the Circuit court. If anything were lacking to prove the ability of Attorney Barnes the results of this case ought to satisfy the most exacting.-- Woodstock Democract. LIST of letters remaining uncalled for in the P.
