just republished the book of Dick rs
travels in America in 1912, entitled
"Awericdn Notes" The following ed !
itorial in the New York Tribune Of
October oath has led to this edition
Of American Notes
eve regret to bserve that one or
two journals are spitetul enough to
printsome very unkind remarks about
Charles Dickene, in anticipation Of his
forthcoming visit to America. Mr..
Dickens said some pretty hard things
OF us many years ago; but it is by no
means certain that we did not deserve
them and even if we did not, any
man of sense ought to know that
whatever little injury he ever did us
has been twenty times outweighed
by tie substantial good he has con
ferred upou the world The fact is,
we doubt whether those who arc rud>
est in their censure of the great nov>
elist know how much truth and good
sense are embodied in the writings
with which they princiL Tally find fault,
and how groundless is the assertion
that he abused the hospitality we
forced upon him. 1t would be wise
thihg-good for Dickens and good for
ourselves-if our publIehers would
take the present opportunity to put
upon the market new edition Of the
American Notes .; that would help
us to know how little we had to com
plained Of from the hands ofour guest,
how much we have mended in our
manners, and how much there is still
to mend"

HEALING THE SICK.-Dr. G.. M.
Wood, the Magnetic Physician, is to
be in Lancaster on the 18th of De-
cember, and remain several weeks.
With reasonable regard for our own
reputation, as we'll as for the good of
those who may seek his treatment
usually for diseases considered ncu
rable, we report for this physician
rather extraordinary success during
his late stay in Lancaster. Without
mentioning any special cases, leaving
such to speak for themselves, quite a
number acknowledged being cured,
or greatly benefited. Ofcourse there
are complaints incurable, except by
miracle and such he had the candor
to turn away as hopeless. Under his
method, the whole power of mind
and matter are set to work restoring
a diseased part, these also aided by
the great galvanic wogld which we
know to exist, but which is a. yet un>
known to the FIVE senses. lhe pow
err Of faith is known, but never seen
nor heard. Such and the like are for
the wise who 40 not cry "humbug,"
till after the facts are taken into ac>
count.

AN ANNEKE JAMS IN MADIsoN.-A
considerable portion Of the real estate
comprising the city OF Madison was
once owned by one James r. Vine
yard, of Plattevillc, who shot Arndt,
his fellow member OF the territorial
legislature, in February, 1912. Not
long after that occurrence Vineyard
disposed of his interest in real estate
here, and afterwards emigrated to
California, where he died The State
J0urnaI learns that his widow alleges
that she never signed the deeds for
her husbands Madison property, and
therefore asserts her claim to her dow
er interest in some sixty lots in the
city, well scattered, and including
some Of the best business and resi-
dence property, and proposes to take
legal steps to obtain her rights. This
news will be rather an eye opener to
some of their citizens, and if the
claim is persisted in, will doubtless
lead to protracted litigation.

end much respected citizen of Union town
ship, died at his residence on the last day
of the old year, after an Illness of but three
hours, aged about 81 years. The deceased
though not one Of the first, was among the
early settlers of Marshall county, having
located here over twenty years ago. His
pioneer axe then walked the echoes Of an
almost unbroken forest, and he lived to see
around him the evidences of an advanced
civilization. Thus one by one the links that
bind rs to the past are broken. Soon the
story of the early settler, his hardships and
privations, his joys and hopes, will have
passed from the memory of living men.
