In Illinois the rate for state purposes is 53 cents on the $100. In other words it costs the people of Illinois more than twice as much on every $100 valuation to maintain their state government as it costs the people of Missouri.

Noth- ing adds more to the charms of his country home or to the delight of his wite and children than the trees and the flowers and the birds, be- cause without them insect life would soon develop to such an extent as to destroy the others.

The congressional committee of the Twelfth congressional district met at Appleton City on the lst day of May, 1888, at 2 o'clock. The committee was called to order by the chairman, E. M. Vance, the follow- ing committeemen answering to roll call: Cass, Irvin Gordon, proxy for Dr. Abraham. Bates, J. D. Allen. Henry, W. H. Cock. Dade, Mason Talbot. Jasper, J. B. Newell. St. Clair, E. M. Vance. Vernon, Irvin Gordon. Cedar, J. L. Mitchell, proxy. Barton, James M. Dye, proxy. On motion it was decided to hold the convention to nominate a demo- cratic candidate for congress at i Carthage, on July 25, 1888. The convention to be called at 2 p. m. The ratio of representation was | fixed at one delegate for every 300 voters and fraction of 150 cast for | Grover Cleveland for president. | Resolved, That this committee j earnestly recommend that in coun- ties where more than one represen- | tative district is established the del- egates to the Congressional conven- tion be selected from the county at large, irrespective of the boundary lines of these districts, as heretofore | practiced.

Mr. and Mrs. Aaron McCombs, 14 miles northwest of Windsor, now mourn the loss of their babe. On Wednesday at about 2 p. m., the lit- tle fellow went out doors to play. His mother, not hearing his merry prattle, concluded to see where he had gone. Her feelings cannot be imagined, much less described, when upon going to the yard she beheld the lifeless form of her boy lying in a tub of water. He was lying face downward. Mrs. McCombs snatch- ed him from the tub, and summoned medical assistance. Dr. J. F. Feas- ter arrived at the house about 2:46, but life was entirely extinct, the child not having breathed since be- ing taken from the tub. He was a healthy child, aged 16 months, very stout, and the mystery is that he met his death in this peculiar man- ner, as the tub only contained eight inches of water. The funeral was preached by Rev. J. B. Daniels, and the remains interred in Laurel Oak cemetery Thursday evening.—Wind- sor Review. Killed by a Mule. H. E. Milehen who came in from Lake township, Friday morning, re- ported Joseph Biggs in a dying con- dition. Tuesday afternoon, when Mr. Biggs was preparing to start to work with his team, he was kicked bya mule. The blow fell upon the central and lower portion of the ab- domen, and after reaching the out- side of the barn, the injured man was compelled to lie down. It was an hour before he was able to get into the house. For a time it was thought he was not dangerously hurt, and Dr. Mel- ick was not called until the next day. He at once saw the gravity of the case, and sent for Drs. Callaway and Wilson, of this city. A consul- tation was held Thursday and a sur- gical operation decided upon.

Second, the | it- whiner who will do nothing for themselves and complain because some other fellow, by his energy, is trying to push along the city in all that tends to its material ad- vancement. Third, the men who have accumulated fortunes through ener- gy of others, and who refuse to give up a dollar for a manufacturing es- tablishment or other enterprise that will bring wealth to the city. The classes named and others stand as adamantine wall against the pros- perity of many cities and towns. They are everywhere to be found. In some places they are the ruling spirit. In others there are enougn of them to stab every movement that is calculated to build a great and prosperous city. POWDER Absolutely Pure. This powder never varies.

Some time ago, it will be remem- bered, the state board of railway commissioners were here to investi- gate the complaint against the Gulf railroad for not furnishing Bruce Bros. equal facilities for shipping coal given the Keith & Perry coel company. After hearing the eom- plaint of Bruce Bros., viewing the situation of the mines, etc., and af- terwards hearing the answer of Gen. Nettleton, thecommissioner report- ed that the Gulf company would al- low the switches put in as Bruce Bros. demanded. It seems in order to reach their mines it was necessary to cross a portion of the Collins tract ofland in which the Keith & Perry coal com- pany has a leasehold interest; and without consent on their part, or condemnation proceedings, work was commenced on the coal company’s lease land, and very naturally the company instituted injunction pro- ceedings to prevent further trespass- Bruce Bros. eR AT SE s@SHOEING SNIDOHS.08 South east corner square, at Butler, where they keep the Perkins light steel shoe for light traveling horses and the heavy Burden shoe for farm or draft horses.
