STONE CUrrING.-Mr. WARE, late part
ner of Edwin Wood gone east) has the
sole control of the Marble shop near
Fury's Hotel. He employs only the best
of workmen and buys only the Italian and
Vermont marble. Some beautiful work
is being done there and it would be well
for people who want nantel pieces, stand
table or counter tops--or if anybody ever
expects to die and leave record at head
and feet-well, let everybody go to Ware
and select what he requires now or, if he
chooses, what he most certainly will re.
quirc hereafter.

and import everything, we Of course get

Some idea of the enormous consumption
Of baked beans in Boston ON the Sabbath
may be gathered from the fact that the ba,
ker ut the South End, who sells these edi'
bles by the quart, already cooked, disposes
of no less than six bushels of baked beans
last Sunday morning, or about two hun
dred quarts, at sixteen cents quart, and
, this in vicinity where cooking stoves are
abundant and mary bake tAeir OWN.

GARBLING.-In the TINES OF last week
we upset the Common Council by copying
phat they took c6ense at from the Ners.
The Ne,cs says we ''garbled." 1t is not
surprising that the runners of that paper
should call their own productions "gar-
bled." Tis the only excuse they can offer
for their "errors' 1t also stated that the
TINES denied being Democratic paper.
This was one of those nice pious, little
garbles which would stake in the coun-
try" We said it was not Democratic
OrQan-nOr is it.

Weather &c.
Our town is improving immensely since
the settlement of titles. You can see
nothing but brick, sand, mortar, rock,
culyerts, Woodworking men, barges Of
goods, active clerks and principals, steam
boats, threshers Of all kinds-please take
your choice-thousands of peaches and
apples, lots of patent-right dealers, most
of which should be called patent-,crongs,
&C., &c.
Weather very fine. River going down
rapidly. Business opening good. Wheat
! 40. No frost yet. Crops of oats and
wheat all safe. Corn progressing finely.
The sale Of Hay, Butter, Eggs, chickens,
Tomatoes, Melons Cabbages and other ar.
ticles used here depends upon the demand
and supply.

very pleasant visit of a day or two with
ABBEY and MosuER of that popular Insur-

Picnics.
Our city and our over the river sister,
Prairie dn Chen, are approaching the pic.
mic business extensively. Several excur.
sions have already been noticed in these
columns and many more trips to PIcrUREp
Rocks and Moss MOUNTAIN are in contem-
plation. Tomorrow Thursday Mt II a
party will SO there on the City of Nc
Gregor steamer. This trip will be ''bossed'
by q. l.. Bass. On Thursday last the
Catholic Sabbath School with teachers
parents and friends had nice time in that
romantic region. Father Nagle did not
stop with US, on account Of engagements at
Prairie du Chen, but he came round in a
small boat so as to pass an hour with his
large family Of large and small people.
He almost commissioned the writer to net
as ''Father" ad interim, as GRANT is doing
in the War Office, but We have forgotten
latin and our neglect Of religious duties
since politics and piety got mixed up, pre-
vented our acceptance of the half.tender o.
the paternal position. But the "spree"
was good one. Spree means animation,
spirit, fun, not drinking. We had barrels
of apples, boxes of peaches, boxes Of
candy made by Mr.. Griffin expressly for
the children and the occasion, lashins of
catables of the most tempting sort; the
incest spring water was by us and the
wide Mississippi ferncnst US. A swing
was rugged and the way Ormsby, P. o.
Bricn, jr., Coughlan and other gentlemen
elevated the young ladies by rope was
beautiful. 1t was gay party.
The Baptists will have their annual
children show (they have large and
handsome lot too) on Saturday week if
Mr.. Barron, the Supt., returns from his
eastern purchasing trip and does not bring
awifc home with him; in the latter case
his attention would probably be pre-occu-
pied. We suggest and we insist-we will
a'so pay or work on the job-that day or
two before any contemplated visit to Pic
turcd Rocks, men be employed with
wheelbarrows, shovels, axes and scythes
to clean of that beautiful lawn, put up
some awnings for shade and make the
place fit to promenade in. Five dollars
worth Of labor will render tho promenade
grounds a little paradise. We can just as
well have it clean and NEEDLESS as to have
it disgusting. Don't you think SO, ladies
and children?

TLKADER, Aug, q. 1867.

1LKADER, Aug. q, 1901.
Messrs ANDRICK & RICHARDSON,
Gentlemen your issue O the 2lst
inst, you charge "Granger, Clrk of the
Court at Elkader, with holding certain in
dictments for political reasons thereby
leaving those to infer who are no better
posted than you seem to be that ,e is doing
it contrary to his duty as an officer of the
Court in such cases. Now, take it for
granted that you did not make he charge
outof pure cusseclness, but Inadvertently ov-
erlooked the fact that the Tenth Judicial
District of Iowa elected District Attor-
ney whose duty it is to attend to all GRIM
inal business in his District, and upon
whose order the Clerk issues process when
required by him. l am informed by the
District Attorney that he expects soon to
make careful examination of the indict-
ments referred to, and make suchorder as
to arrests as he thinks the public interest
may require, without regard to political
considerations. Hoping and believing
that you will set the matter right
l am yours, truly.

Correspondence.
We are in receipt Of the following good
natured letter from ii. S. GranAr. 1t is
published as matter Of justice. We con-
TESS ignorance in legal matters. In early
life BLACKSTONE was one of OUT favorite
books, but, concluding that our c,ibre was
too small for Lawyer, we quit Blackstone,
Gritty, Kent and the rest and .nk into
the position of school-teacher, rercantile
clerk, merchant; down finally to auditor
True, we know something of Law having
been several times chosen dcfadant in
suits of Debt | Thus far we hat waded
out of difficulty, but the future annot be
prognosticated. May the "powes aboon"
be our guide.
Seriously, what in thunder is &c reason
that the District Attorney doesn't do his
duty? Does it take several monhs to ex-
anime into "what public interes may re-
quire p What are public inerests at
present? We know what they &c in the
Washington Cd. c. programme, but has it
come to Iowa that the election oh Repub-
lican ticket is paramount to the statute of
Iowa? We exempt our Clerk oflhe Court
from charges of official improprity SO do
we exempt our friend Davis, the prospec-
tive Sheriff; but why is it that L. D. Hatch,
Esq, district Attorney, &C., I'D, Of this
judicial government of Iowa, canot find
time to push through those MATES of law
for which he was specially selected? Pri-
vatc matters of grave characte must be
at the bottom of this delay, or political mat
tiers of a more paying interest areinAucnc-
ing the gentlemen who fear to meet the
question of " Personal Liberty y. Social
Tyranny"

Business, Personal, &c.
HARTwIc & PIEcKARr are getting up q
lot of the finest Harness, staple and fancy,
that ever was shown at McGlegor. Far
mers who come in with their new wheat
and sell it for 81 40 bushel can afford to
dress their horses in the latest fashion.
$40" used to be on Wiscmiller's corner,
but he joins Hartwig, near the Broad
Axe" and both of them are such superb
or workmen that they must command a
large trade.
Capt. Jour Captain by brevet) Louruoop,
of the 4th Regulars, has sent 20 men away
already, and there are dozen more ready
to 60. Quarters at Knapp's Exchange
Hotel. Sergeant Henry Worden, one of
the boys who marched to the sea with
Billy Sherman, is tip-top aid to Lout-
hood.
Special attention is called to Gilmore 8
Prize Concert. The fairness of the draw
ing on July 18th has caused any number of
requests, by letter and personally, that
French & Gilmore should again submit a
Lottery hazard to the public. Mr.. French's
personal business here and at Clinton
precludes participation in the one now
inaugurated, but the public will be as
fairly dealt with in the coming drawing as
they were before. Please look Gilmores
advertisement over.
Dennis O'Brien, one of the first men
here, and an excellent citizen, has a small
assortment of Fruits and Groceries, four
doors this side the Flanders. Call in and
see Dcnnis-he deals fairly with all.
Capt Willard, the wicked one who sells
ine-tasting liquids by license from Congress
and the action of McCraney & Grant, the
Good Templar agents of Uncle Sam, is at
the old place in Koss' Block, minding his
business as faithfully as any'oficer of the
Government. He makes money by selling
the stuff, and they are living by watching
the spirits.
P. OBrien is going largely into the
fruit and Family Grocery business. Our
namesake is as straight as men. are made
and any order to him will be filled as hon.
orably as though you were here to watch
its execution.
Attention is especially called to the Loan
Advertisement of the N. w. Mutual Life
Insurance Company. This young compa-
ny has surplus of Money and they want
to loan it safely. Please read the terms
and avail yourself of the advantage this
prosperous company offers.
