Desived Tteport Not Ready. QO Saspexd the Yesterday the county board of super oracked court honse, being to receivo the vizors met in the the chief business report of S. D, courts, The board some time ago noti- fied him that he must make a full and complete report of the receipts of his oftice, or ho would be suspendrd, The board gave him twenty days in which to Street, clerk of the propare this report, and that time was up last Monday; but he not having the report ready, the board granted him one woek more, which time was up yester- day, Mr, Street sappeared before the board and explained that he had been so busy with the court, which is in session, that he was unable to complete the re- port, and asked for more time. The board did not feel inclined to give more tlme, The members expressed them- selves as personally willing to accommo- date Mr. Street, but oflicially they felt it their duty to suspend him from office, as they had given him time sufliciont to pre- parein. Mr. Robert Percival appealed to the board to give Mr. Streot more time, claiming that the clerk had been very busy, and it was no little task to go through the books of four years business, He raised the question whether if Mr. Streot was suspended thero would not be numerous cases of litigation arise, in the filing of papers, drawing of jurors, otc., favolying the question as to whether the board had the right to suspend this cflicer. The board still clung to its purpose, Some ¢f the members oxprossed, what soemed to be the unanimous feellng of the board, that tho public would blama them if they let the matter go any longer. They asasy that it had been charged that they had been putting up a job for political purposes, and they wanted to have it shown up who was at fault, and whether the books and ac- counts of the clerk wero correct or not. The board took no formal official ac- tion, but openly expressed themselves as fully determined to pass a resolution to-day euspending the clerk from office. 1t is said that Mr. Street will pay no attention to any such order of the board, but will go right along wlth his duties, under legal advice to the effect that the board has no right to suspend him. His time will be out January lst anyway, and he will then be required by law to make a re- port anyway, whether he makes one now or not, If the board suspends him, as it is evident it will to-day, and he continues in office, there may be consid- erable litigation in cases in which the clerk has anything to do with the legal papers. It looks as if there was quite a squabble brewing. In the meantime the public has no light thrown upon the question as to whether Mr, Street still owes the county soveral thousand dollars or not. The accountants employed by the board to go through the books of the office, have eimply copied items from the books and have reported no balances, and the only use to which their reports seem destined is to compare with the clerk’s report when that is presented. One reform will result from this affair. Hereafter, the board will see to it, doubtless, that the clerk make the complete reports every quarter, as required by law. ————— Ask your grocer for McClurg's self- ralsing buckwheat.

Crofts, of Sandwich, 111, preached to an attentive congrega- tion, choosing as his text, *Unto you therefore which believe, He s precious,” 1st Pator, ii, vii, These words of the apostle have refer- ence to Josus Christ. Lo that apostle, that grand and glorious, resclate, strong, devoted friend of Christ—to him person- ally, Christ was a treasurc of infinite value, He wag with Christ on the Mount of Transfiguration, He heard there the voico of the heavenly glory, saying, “‘This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased.” The voice of the Father bearing witness and testimony that this wonderful personage was hia son. He also was the first one to the Savior pre. sented himself after his resurrection, and you remember the question to Poter, “*Peter, lovest thou me!” and repeated the third time, and at the third repoti- tion, the hesrt of Poter scemed to be grieved. He answered, *Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee.” Peter had always loved his Mastor. He loved him even when ho denied Him. His heart was always loyal to the Lord Jesus Christ, and he speaks these words, “‘Unto you, therefcre, which believe He is precious,” out of the infinite burden of his own experienco and relationship, Observe further the peculiar construe. tion of this sentence, Not to the man merely who atates the character of Christ; not to the man merely who takes the measure of Christ as he stands in comparison with the character of another individual; not merely to the man who claims that He is a personage of the past do we read that he is precious. Napoleon Bonaparte, that man of won. derful insight and penetrative powers, said in regard to the Savior, *“I know man and [ know that Jesus Christ was not a man.” He admired him, Christ was precicus to him becacse he believed on him as a Savior. In the first place Christ is precious be- causo he is & revelation of uod, No revelation is 80 great as that which we discover in his life, sufferings and death. John says, *In the beginning was the Word,” That word refers to Christ, As & word or a sentence expresses a thought, 80 that word clothes a thought, and the thought Is Christ. It is lmpossible for us to get a true idea of what God is, except as we are brought into relationship with the savior. We way say God is a spirit, but who un- derstands what a spirit is? It is an un- fathomable mystery to us. We may say Giod reveals himeself in nature. True, but ina very limited sense. We have no conception of what God is by any of the works which he has made. | were inhabitants of some other planet, {and knew uothing of the men of the earth, and uld come to this world and | behold their works, and the things which they have constructed, we could not judge by these things what man is, Who ocoald toll what men really are until he has seen them, donvorsed with them, and been with them through the various trials and exegencien of human Itfe, How could a child ever apprehend the meaning ot the word “‘mother” if it had never looked into a mother’s eyes beaming with that infinite love the mother sustains ia her heart toward the darling of her soul In a more perfoct sense then through the works of nature, God 18 revealed to us a8 a loving father through the Lord Josue, In the second place Christ is precious to us as our Savior from sin. When the river at Kansas City was once at its flood height, a little boy fell into it, and was being swept away. A young colored man saw him thus fall into the turbid stream, and with trus daring and true manhood, he plunged Into the dark waters and swam after tho littlo boy, took hold of him, and was enabled with his strength to bring him to shore and to a place of safety’ DBut his own strength being exhausted he fell back into the stream and perished. Was not that man precious us a Savlor to the gentle child at that time, and he not ever be so re- garded! And if the child himself should grow to realize what had been done for him by that colored boy, would he not ever remember him with love and grati- tude? And thus it was with you and me. Being swept Into the tide of destruction —there was one—who plunged into that tide, and brought us to, the shore of salvation. And are we not grateful, and do we not love him for what he has done? Again he is precious becauso ho brings into our hearts solid and glorious satis- factlon. This is a true satisfaction such a8 the world cannot give and such as the world is poworless to take away. Compare the termination of the life of Suppose we Byron with that of the Apostle Paul. The former who had tasted of every pleasure that riches could bring, and also of fame that hls wonderful genins wrought for *him, on his 86th birthdoy, while only a young man, writes the words: “My days aro in the yellow leaf, The fruits and flowers of love ire gono; The worm, the canker, and the grief, Are mine alone, Paul who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ and devoted himself to his service said: *‘The time of my departure is at hand; I have fought the good fight; I have fin- ished the course; I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up a crown of glory which God the righteous judge shall give to me.” Here is true and glorious satisfaction. — —— McClurg's self-rising buckwheat flour always ready foruse.

These Inepiring verses wero written by Col. John A. Joyce about fifteen years 8go. We distinctly remember the cir- cumstances of their authorship, Col. Joyce was sitting In the wine-room of the Galt house at Louisville, surrounded by several hundred congenlal spirits and quafling iced champaign from cedar pails. ‘I'he rollicking company had just sung s negro melody, when somebody called on Joyce for a poem.

The couple were conspicuous e pecially for the magnificent and pondeor- ous jawelry which thes wore, and could not into the dining room or walk through the coridors without being fol- lowed by gaping crowds. In appoarat Lighthall combines the cowboy of the west and the swell young man of the enst, He is about 35 years of age and six feet tall, of a lithe, active build, His hair, which is raven black, is as straight as an Indian's, and falls in & mass to his shoulders, His clothes are of fashiona ble out and of rather loud pattern, His vest, which s of a bright material, is but- toned with diamonds, there boing fifty. four good-sized stones in the set of but- tons, His vistt to Cincinnati was for the purpose of adding some cholce stones to his already large collection of jowels, He probably wears more diamonds than any other manin this country or any other, for that matter, Mz, and Mrs. Lighthall welcomed a reporter yesterday and seemed nething loath to show their jewels, which were rather conspicuously displayed. ‘I am sorry,” said he, “‘that 1 did not know you were coming for I could have had more of my ‘stufl’ here and made more of a show. ~ But this scarf-pin is worth looking at” pointing at the same time to a huge cluster of diamonds more than an inch square, which almost hid a gaudy necktie which swathed his throat, ‘This is probably the largest pin in the United States,” ho continued. *‘It contains 170 stones, one of which, as you soe, welghs six carats, Thoy uro beautl- fully set and the entire workmanship is almost perfoct. 1t was originally a ring but is too cumberaome to wear.” “Did, you order it made}” “No. 1t was the last order of a dia- mond broker tn St. Louis, whose name was Maus, It is said that he went crazy, and I guess he did, for no sane man, un- less ho was as escentric ss I am, would order, much less werr, a bauble of that deecription. 1t is said that Maus took a handful of stones intoa workshop and told the foreman to make the finest ring pu]suiblc outof them, and this is the re- sult.” of jowels over since a boy, aud for the past ten years, since ho has beon ablo to gratify his desires in this direction, has been making an extraordinary collection of precious stonea. He wears thom, he says, because he likes to be cdd. Of late yoars he has been much amorg the In- dians of the west, and aflocts the men- ners and actions of a cowboy. He has a eombrero which cost him over $2,800. Clusters of diamonds and other goms decorate the crown and rim of the hat, and it is probably the only hat in the United States that is'kept in a safe. The same man, just to gratify an Inclination to be conspicnous, wors a suit of clothes the bnttons of which were made of $10 gold pieces. The jewelry which he wore yesterday, In addition "to his glaring scarf pin and diamond vest buttons, son- sisted of four big rings, a massive gold chain and three large badges or medals, which wero pinned on his vest front.
