Mrs. Riley's Comedy Co., adver- tised for a week's engagement in this city commencing Monday night, went to the wall at Pleasant Hill Saturday.

Rath- er than disappoint the good people of Hume Billy O. took atie ticket and arrived in that place o. t., mak ing the thirteen miles in about three hours.

Horace E. Brown who has been rusticating in the Italian climate of California has returned and intends to stay. Mr. John Steele of Lone Oak, spent several days on the’ prairie visiting friends during holidays. The dance at Mr. Simon Gilbreath was well attended, and everybody apjoyed themselves hugely. They danced until the “‘wee sma’ hours of the morning when they departed for their homes with but one thought wasn’t it grand. There was a church dance, better known as play party at Mr. Jim Mock’s on last Friday night, also at Mr. Gorge Brown’s on Tuesday night and Collins Spencer’s on Fri- day night. Oh, violin, thy rest is at hand. Owing to the inclemency of the weather the attendanceat the festival of the Christian church was small but they had plenty of the good things to eat, therefore everybody was happy. The receipts for the evening were $35.70. Our genial assessor has promised to give us the assessment list of Hudaon township but some how it has failed to show up. Perhaps he does not want it shown up against the others which have been published. As for our part we would feel proud to see it in print. Diep:—Uncle Milton Williams at the ripe old age of 75, passed peace- fully away on Dec. 29th, at the resi- dence of his son. He had been ail- ing for several years and through ex- posure during the cold spell togeth- er with his age he fell a victim to lung fever. He was cared for by the neighborhood and everything possi- ble was done to alleviate his suffer- ing but to no avail. He has beena consistent member of the Baptist church for a number of years. His funeral was preached by Rev. Tole of Shell City. His body was laid in its last resting place in the Baptist cemetery on Friday. Dic. All physicians recommend Liquor Pepsin Compound for the cure of dyspepsia; for sale by Walls & Holt, the druggists. Milt Beatty, from Spruce township, was in the city Thursday and made usa pleasant call. From him we glean the following happenings from his township. Judge Ballard sold eight head of mules one day last week for $1,000. Judge Cole had the misfortune to ‘ose his fine jack, recently, by death. Valued at $1,000. The leap year party at Mr. Mar tin’s, Monday night, was well attend ed and the young folks hada gay time, but the girls were braver in the house than out doors, as the se- quel showed in going home at night. Dr. Choat is fast recovering from his severe spell of sickness. Jas. Miller came to Butler Thurs- day and secured license to marry Miss Etta Maupin, a beautiful and charming young lady, of Johnstown.

Chapin gives utter- | ance to the following remarkable combination of poetic fancy and un- answerable logic: “We must haye the liquor tax to pave our streets’, saysa politician. But I think if mothers had the control They could pave to-day The broad highway With something not so white as the souls Of the inuocent boys at play. Why can’t men pave the business marts With something harder than women’s hearts? Is there no gold that will serve theirturn, Save the shining gold of the heads that rest, Soft on a loving mother’s breast? Must these go down toa drunkard’s grave, In order that we the streets may pave?’’ A “Wet” Month. Since court adjourned last month we have gathered into the jail five criminals as follows: One assault and house breaking. Prisoner was at the time drunk. One stealing from a person. Both drunk at the time. One assault with intent to kill. If victim dies—murder. Prisoner drunk at the time. Two for murder in the first degree. Both prisoners and victim drunk. The above is one month's crop. Prospective cost $6,000 at a low estimate. These are the saloons New Year's gift to the widows, orphans and tax payers. A “Wet” Lie. Saloons are trying to make a point by slandering the temperance people of Rich Hill, claiming they willfully refused to submit the question until Butler voted. Such charges are willfully false. The facts are that the Butler and county election were set so close at hand that the Rich Hill brethren could not get the city council together in time to set the election for the 24th and give the legal notice. The petitioners did wisely in withdrawing the petition when the city council could not set election for the 24th. The failure to vote at Rich Hill has proven to be providential as the friends of local option cannot furnish workers for the territory they now have. when the fight is made.
