New PASTURE.-We notice pasture
for cattle has been opened in the Cemetery on
Richards hill, back of the College. We have
not learned what the initiation fee IS, but pre-
sumo it is nothing, as the fence is down and
the gates are always open for the benefit oil 'ns
hungry herd. We presume this matter Is
everybodys business, and consequently does
not receive very strict attention, but for the
sake of suffering dead humanity, we hope TINS
disgraceful looking thing will be remedied be-
fore long.

THE JAPANESE TRoUPE.-ThiB cele-
brated Oriental troupe will give three o their
performances at Music Hall on Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday evenings Of this week. This
will be one of the richest treats in the way OF
amusement ever presented to our citizens.
Their tricks and feats are we'll received in eV-
cry locality where they have yet performed.
AS acrobats and seight-of-hand performers
they have probably no living equals. None of
their tricks have been excelled, and but few
Of them equaled by any American artists. AS
the representatives Of very remarkable peo-
pie they are worth seeing, and we have no
doubt our citizens generally Will avail them
selves of this opportunity. A very interest
ing feature Of the entertainment is the distri-
bution of prizes to the audience. We learn
from the Milwaukee papers, whore they shave
recently performed, that this feature of the
performance gave general satisfaction. The
beautiful Japanese presents which are to be
distributed TO the audience, are manufactured
by this troupe, and viii be on exhibition at
the Post Office on the days of the performances

stitute was laid on Wednesday last. The var
ious SO cieties of Jefferson participated in the

importance of education, and con-radicted the
reports that the is to be UNCONVENTIONAL
school
Hon. G. T. Thorn gave historical sketch of
the Institute, and of the interest the citizens
of Jefferson County have manifested in the
matter.
Prof. E. Chase followed Mr.. Thorn in few
general remarks, after which SIR. Emil Rothe,
of this city, addressed his countrymen present
in the German language.
Hon. A. j. Craig, State Superintendent, was
the next speaker. He spoke on the Importance
of proper education, and of the interest he
felt in his own county.
Rev. A. Fedder, canvassing agent of the
Institute, made few remarks on his success
as an agent. stating that he had on his sub
scripton list about 30 900.
D. F. Weymouth, District Attorney, spoke
for the Jefferson German Musical Society. Rev.
B. F. Rogers offered a prayer, after which
President Weston, of Lombard University,
Galesburg III, concluded the ceremonies by

The citizens of jefferson are deserving of
considerable praise for the enterprising spirit
they have shown toward establishing such a
valuable institution among them, and we trus,
the work will be carried to a successful ter
mination.

ErEgHafassa Prophecies
Concerning the End Of All Things

OcnCc|HIJ Itc AIfett " <ACC AUtHyS
Are made by religious enthusiasts; and, on
the other hand, philosophers insist that the
centre of the Earth is a mass of fire-that the
poles of the Earth viii one day be at the Eqna-
tor, and that the Sun is gradually fading
Talk like this is very terrible; but, pending
such wholesale calamitieS, it will be as well
for each member of society to take care of his
or her health, and leave the rest to Providence.
The end comes preinaturey to all who neg
lect the preservation Of that inestimable bless
ing. Suffer liver disease, dyspepsia, chronic
constipation or any other ailment to take its
course unchecked, and it Will assured1y shor-
ten life. 1t cannot be said that the means of
protecting the system against the predispoSing
causes of disease are withheld. The const5tu-
tons aud physique o the least robust maj be
SO strelg thened and fortified by course of
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS as to
render them all but invulnerable, not only to
the attacks of epidemic disorders, but also
to the ordinary complaints which prevail in
all countries and at all'seasons. If the immense
Importance of protective medication were uni
versally understood, this incompatible vegeta-
BILE antidote, which is already the most popul-
ar tonic in the world, would everywhere be
cassed among the staples of life, and no fam-
ly would dare to be without it. The time may
arrive when this will be case, for every year
adds hundreds of thousands to the list OF those
who use it.

THE COSCoRDIA SOCIETY.-The Con-
cert given by the Concordia Society, on Tues
day evening of last week was well attended,

Of this Society deserve considerable credit for

indebted to them for the erection and fitting
up of the New Music Hall, which is credit
to our city, and very pleasantly arranged for
the comfort of all lovers of amusement.

We learn from the Madison Journal Of
the death of Miss Marianne Ripley, which &C.
CURED in that city on Monday of last week
Miss Ripley was member Of one of the Oldest
and most respected families of New England

well as intellectual culture. Miss R. was born

literary editor Of the New York Tribune In
1910 she same West to visit her sister residing
in Madison. During her residence in Madison
she had manifested deep concern in all that
