Several ladies have informed us that
the clerks at some of our stores allow
them to drive up without offering to
assist or wait upon them, seeming
not to understand that they can be of
any service till the lady alights, ties
her horse and places herself before
the counter. We think a little in

THE PRESS. Clarkson, the
racy local-ist of the State Register,
has been promoted to the depart
ment of editor-in- chief of that able
paper. This is a worthy recognition
of the earnest labors of one who has
given the Register the popular stand-
ing that Ii bears throughout the State.
Republicanism will find an able ex-
ponent In his matchless pen.
The Iowa North Vest, published
at Fort Dodge by Ex-Lieut. Gov.
Cue, has recently been enlarged and
changed to quarto form. Gov.
Cue is one of the best Republican
workers I'm our State and the North
Vest is one Of our teyy best exchan-
ges.
The Western World, published al
Cedar Rapids by Ballard & Enos, is q
new weekly visitor to our sanctum
1t is handsome eight column sheet,
and is politically sound to the core
for Grant and Colfax.
The Toledo Republican comes to
us enlarged snd much improved
Mr.. Rice has been adding to his es-
Enlistment q matrimonial and bus
mess partner. Both, we think, will
insure the continued success of SO
good paper as the Republican.
We notice very decided change
by an enlargement and improve
ment in appearance of the Hamilton
Freeman. It deserves the liberal
support its well.filled columns indi-
cate.
The Tama County Union has repu-
dated the quarto form and it now
makes = very handsome sheet. 1t
was always ably edited and deserves
place in every household In that
county. We are glad to see the ma
MIA for the quarto style subsiding.

to be too much for him. With spas
modic indications Of aNtainted con-
science he uses his pen to Witty and
blacken the reputation of Cedar Falls
in his efforts to magnify the advanta-
ges of a rival corporation. His asser-
tions are untruthful. unjust and un-
worthy Of notice. We therefore pass
them by without further comment.

ORPHANS HOME BUILpINa.--We
have been shown the plan and speci-
fication for the erection of the new
Orphans Home building at this
place, and which has been accepted
by the Board. They were executed
by our townsmaD, Il. NJ. Stead, and
would be credi!able to the best archi-
tects of our large cities. The build.
ing when completed will be hand.
some and commodious structure and
will afford q pleasant home, In the
truest sense Of that term, for the or.
phan children Of our State.
The main part of the building is to
be 0Ox46, with a wing 42x3G, aud
projection OF vestibule Sx3O feet
The building is to be three stories
with basement and attic. The base
course of the wall to he concrete, four
feet and one half wide and one foot
thick, made of small stone. The
basement wall IL to be first class ruble
work, two and one.half feet thick
The superstructure to be of brick.
The basement Is divided into kitch-
en-, dining rooms, &C., the first story
for school rooms and the two upper
stories for ward rooms, hospital, &c.
The arrangement OF the interior of
the building has evidently been
made with great care ard careful
study aud with the view of convent.
ence and comfort.
The contract for building Is ready
to be let and as soon as the lowest
bidder Is ascertained, work will COM
mence. The grounds have been pur-
chased and the deed is now i'm the
hands of the Committee. It Is the
intention of the Board to push the
work as rapidly as possible and ere
many months roll around the pres
eEt shell will be exchanged by the
children for the new Home.
SUDDEN DEATH.-As we go to press
we learn of a sad death occurring
yesterday between this place and
Waterloo. The particulars, so far us
we are able to learn are that q son
of Mrs. Downing, about fourteen
years old, living near the second
school house, on the Waterloo road,
went out hunting some time during
the day and was afterwards. found
dead by the side of fence. 1t IL
supposed that in climbing the fence
his gun accidentally discharged and
killed him instantly.

PROGRESS OF THE IRON HoRsE.-
Work on the Cedar Falls and Mime.
sofa Rail Road between Nashua and
Charles City Is progressing rapidly
and 1t is the intention Of the Compa-
ny, we understand, to have the track
laid to the latter place by the last of
August The work will be continued
on through to the State line as rapid.
ly as possible.
The Ackley branch, running TO
Eldora, has just been completed ard
the cars are running regularly be-
tween the two points. A company,
we are informed, has been organized
for the purpose of pushing this road
on through to Marshalltown.
On the ID. Il s. C. Rail Road, west
of Iowa Falls, work still continues,
notwithstanding the many reports to
the contrary. Whether the road will
be built through to Fort Dodge now
is mixed question. Mr.. Blair de.
clares that legislative restriction Is all
that Is In the way. while the people
believe that only Blair is in the wau.
A large proportion of the road bed is
made and II the work still continues
as 1t has for some months past, the
Cedar Valley will soon be In raj road
communication with Fort Dodge.

prospect of one is as good as the
other. Excuse us from betting on
the chances of either.
