Great preparations are belng made for the meeting of the State Pharmaceutical soclety, which opens here on the 12th of May. Not only do the sesslons promise to be interesting, but there will be very fine exhibits of varfous lines of goods and wvarious preparations, The following have been chosen as the jurymen for the May term of the superi- or court: W. F. Sapp, jr., George O. Brown, L. Swearingen, E. B. Bowman, T. B. Baldwin D. F. Eicher, Dlck Ricketts, George Blaxim, and A. B, Nichols. Pottawatamle Grove, No. 23, U. A. O.

Those who want a choice of seats should not delay In securing them. It the young man who Is “‘trying” to learn the newspaper business, attended to his own business half as zealoutly as he does to the business of other news- paper offices, he would not have let the Globe scoop him so badly on the bur- glarles, neither of which he had a llne about, Rev, Dr. Cooly, the new pastor of the Baptist chuch, is expected to arrlve on to- morrow’s train, over the Northwestern & Chicago. His wife and one of his daugh- ters are expected to come with him, the other davghter and son being in college, 80 that thay will not come untll the close of the college year. Ladies with thelr eecorts sre glven front seats at the dime museum and theatre which are toparated from the|® seats of the gentlemen by a raillng. The attendance of ladles is n/ghtly Increasing, they becoming eat!sfied that the mansge: ment s conducting s strictly moral show and are making it just what s claimed— a resort for ladles and children. Mrs, H. J. Hilton, M, D., has given up her residence and practice in this olty and left last evening on & business trip through the southwest. Mrs. Hilton has been a resident and practicing physl- clan for the past four years In this olty snd leaves ® large practice which any Iady pbysician might be proud of, After an extended trip she expects to locate in the east. The Methodists are talking of buylng property on Oakland avenue for the pur- posa of a parsonsge. The movels a good one, and there seems a good prospect of its being carrled to & sucoessful comple- tlon, Unner the itineracy system of that denomipation, the minlsters can stay at one place no longer than three yesrs at the most, and these frequent moves make it pecullarly fitting that the churchas should provide parsonsges snd some of the heavier furnishings, The fellow who {s “‘trying” to learn the newspaper business, s still hot because he cannot do something to hurt the Bex The only thing that be bas effected in that way was when he induced the Bee once ta give him a little employment, under the preterss that he koew some- thiog about the pewspaper business. Just how the engagement ended, and other facts in {he young man's history might bs interesting reading to those who do not know him as well as the Bxr does, Mrs. Valller, wife of Alex Vallier, one of the oldest reridents of Hazel Dell township, has jost passed away, old age and Infirmitles belng the cause of death. She lacked but twenty days of reacning her 75th birthday, and she has restded here since 1851, hnving come here from Oanada, She leaves besides her husband, olght children. The funeral will be held at the family res'dence this morning at 10 o’olock. There are plans on foot for furnishing the needed water supply for the ceme- tery, and the water works company will probably lay plpes, so as to supply a fountaln and to farnish water for the various purposes for which It is so much needed, in the summer time especially. 1t s suggested that the city, which has several fountsins yet to locate, have one of them placed in the cemetery, and this can easily be o arranged that from thls water can be carried to various parts of the grounds, The attempt of one of the light-welght reporters to make out that there Is trouble brewing In the olgar makers unlon, seems to flash in the pan, like most of his efforts, the facts being too strongly sgalnst him, The manufac. turers and workers seem to get along harmonlously, with the exception of two or three men, and the union makes no appeal in thelr behalf, while the manu- facturers glve very good reasons for not choosing to employ them, e —— Artista’ Materials at G, R.

Tae Triplets Want to Play Hush About the Bt, Joe House Affair. —_— The caze of Matt Kuhl, of the St.Joe Houss, was called up before Justice Fralney yesterdsy and, as was expected, was dismissed. Thisaction will strengthen the feellng that the *‘triplets” were the ones moet to blame for the disgraceful row that occurred at a Jate hour last Sat- urday night at the St. Joe House. The action of the justice In having the case brought before himself, when from all reports he was onme of the parties most Interested In getting Mr, Kuhl punished, has awakened much sharp critlclam, and it is Intimated that the matter will not be allowed to rest there. 1f there had been a real assault upon the justice himself and his friends, and there had been just cause for action, even then It would seem very bad taste, to say the least for him, to ssue the wai rant himself and prepare to hear the ca: himself. Much worse is It if, as clalmed, the justlce and his friends wers the aggreszors. In view of the clrcum- stances it eeems that the trio, if blame, would have been to have the detalls of the affalr shown up In an officlsl examina- tlon. The abandonment of the prosecu- tlon of the case looks bad, The cirsum- stances may be brought out yet, as the county board 1s yet to pass upon the bill of costs, which the justice will expect the county to pllf ‘Whether the tax- payers will feel like taking the money out of thelr pockets to pay for this fun of “the triplets.” If they do pay the bill the beard will doubtless give the public the satisfaction of the exact facts 88 to how the cases were made up. The dropplng of the case in Frainey’s court should by no means be the dropping of the case entirely.

Their Workings, There is ovidently a gang of hard cases st!ll lingering about the olty, improving every opportunity to plander. Yester- day morning tome fresh evidences were discovered. Hale Hutchinson, the book- keeper for L, Hammer, on opening the office of the lumber yard found that some one had been there before him. The rear door had been foroed open, and {he bur glars had quite thoroughly ransacked the place, opening all drawers and ecattering papers and books about In confaslen, They had also been at work on the safe, and curloutly had folled themselves. Mr. Hammer has had his safe attacked several times during the past fow years, and has wisely concluded to keep it un- locked, rather than have it bored and blown, i¢ having been onoe 8o broken as to necetsitate expensive repalrs, As usual ke left the safe unlocked, and was carefal not to leave any valuables in it. The thieves, however, instead of+ simply opening It began to try the combination lock, and unwittingly locked it. They began to drill a hole and succeeded in getting & hole nearly through, when, for some unknown reason, they gave up the task, and lett, securing nothing. The store of R. P. Snow was also visited, and conslderable plunder taken. An entrance was gained b s the rear door, a uuple being wrenched off, and then the inner doors being unfastened by means of a serewdriver, which was shov- ed through a crack, and the bar ralsed by this. The fellows helped themselves at thelr lelsure, the plunder consisting mostly of canned goods, tobaocco, ete., two or three artloles of clothing which were hanging up i the store, one of the fellows taking the pains to leave an old overcoat of his own in exchange for one he tound thers which suited him better. The safe was opened and a number of notes taken but they were old overdue ones, which were not considered of any great value except as bits ot ancient history. Mr, Snow_thinks his total loss is not to ex- ceed $76. About one o'clock yesterday morning Gene Mottaz, the watchman, found in one of the Wabash freight cars in the yards three fellows, and he drove them out. Indolngso he sent the dog into the car, and soon after the fellows, whom he thought were tramps, had|gin cleared out, the dog seemed to be enjoy- ing a feast of some sort, and investigation showed the remnants of a feast which the trlo had been having, and which proved to be the remains of some of the goods taken from Snow’s store. There was a new basket filled with pro- fons, canned meat, sardines, pickles, jelly, salmon, etc., and the marks on the half emptied cans wero those of Mr, Snow. This dlecovery was not made until It ‘was too late, but the police on being mno- tified hunted up three suspiclous looking fellows, and locked them up, but there was nothing to ldentify them as the ones. e ———— Real Estate Transfers, The following are the tranafers of real estate filed In the office of the reglstrar, and furnished to the Bee by A, J.
