IMPROVEMENTS AT THE STOCK YARDS
The Pennsy lvauia Railroad Stock Yards, at
East Liberty, MEssRs. ALLERroN, HoUsToE
& Co., lessees, have recently been materially
enlarged, a large number OF sheds having
been added, so that they are now prepared
to meet any demand made upon them by
stock dealers. The yards are now the most
capacious in the country with one exception,
and are kept in the most perfect order,
everything about them being neat and clean.
The lessees give their personal attention to
the management of the yards, so that the
wants of dealers are promptly and satisfac =
torily attended to. Among other improve
ments has been the discarding of their old
weigh scales, and the 81 bsttution of the cele-
brated Fairbanks Standard Patent, which
are recognized throughout the world as su-
perior to all other manufactures. These
scales are now in use for the weighing of
stock at all the important shipping points
in the far west as well as in the east, which
is sufficient Endorsement of their reliability.
Those erected for MEssRs. ALLERToN, HoUs-
TON & Co., are capable of weighing whole
carload of cattle at time, and so perfectly
do they operate with such an immense
weight, but single touch of the finger turns
the scale. This deicacy to touch is some
thing remarkable in such poncerous ma
chinery, but it conclusively proves the
nicely aud precision expended in their man.
ufacture, and the further fact that Fair
banks scales are the best in use for any
urpose.-Pittsburqh Commercial.

Iiticsl justice that this or any other country
has ever yet afforded. 1t is due to him as
an honest man that he should be returned to
the Senate, body that he once adorned, and
where he can confront the Summers, the Cam
erons and the Chandlers, who sought to dis
honor and disgrace him. If that should be
the result, as we fervently hope it may, then
the Nemesis of political justice will have
been fully avenged.

CAN'T Go FOR GEARY.-William M'Cand-
less, an active politician and we'll known
citizen of our town, who has acted with the
opposition for the last thirty years, has come
out in favor of Packer and Pershing. He
says he can no longer support Geary and
Williams, and their negro-equality princi-
Piles. Mr.. M'Candless is a sharp, shrewd
business man, and politician of consider
able influence. That there are hundreds of
other well meaning republican politicians in
our country, that will repudiate Geary and
Williams, and their miserable principles,
there is not the least doubt. The people are
arousing from lethargy and have determined
to cleanse the augean stables.-York Press.

FIRE AT Two RIVERS. About :
o'clock on Thursday morning last, fire
was discovered in the building known as
the old School House, in Two Rivers, and
but for the timely assistance of the En-
CINE and Hook and Ladder companies,
the structure would soon have been con-
sumed. We congratulate our sister vii
lage in having so efficient Department,
and although we hope there will be no &C.
casion to need their services, still there
is nothing ike being ready to contend
with the Fire King at all times.

MARRIED..

In Two Rivers, on Wednesday morn
ing, June I'd, by the Rev. G. W. Wilson,
Mr.. NOBLE e. JAoUEs, of Worcester,
Mass, and Miss SARAH E. WILSON, sis
ter of the officiating clergyman.
Miss Wilson has resided in Two Rivers
something over two years, and has en-
deared herself to that community by her
selfsacrl6cing efforts in the cause to
which her brother has devoted his life,
and the people will regret to have her
leave them, but she will probably do so
in the course of the summer. The happy
couple left on the morning boat for the
South. We wish them joy in their new
relation In life.

"A distinguished Methodist Minister

and prominent Temperance Lecturer
once remarked that, go where he would,
from one end of the country to the other,
he hardly ever failed to find Plantation
Bitters, and while he condemned the
practice of using these Bitters too freely,
he could not console atiously say that he
would discard them from the side board,
for he had himself experienced beneficial
results from their use, and that, from q
long and close observation, he was con-
WINGED that when used moderately, as a
medicine exclusively, they were all that
was recommended. At the same time
he warned his hearers not to pull the
cork too often, for they were far too
pleasant tonic to trife with.

TO OUR DEBTORS.

As will be ssen in another place the
TRIBUNE Office has been sold and the
new proprietor will take possession on the
first of June. As matter of course,
during the period which we have conduc-
ted paper here-nearly four years-we
have allowed few of our patrons to get
into our Ledger on the debtor side. To
such we would say, an immediate settle
maent is imperatively necessary. 1t is our
intention to seek another location and all
our accounts unsettled by the 18th Of
june next will be placed in the hands of
a collector with instructions to proceed at
once as the law directs By calling on US
Immediately much difficulty can be obvi-
ated. O. B. SMITH & Co.

PERFORMING DoGs.-The dog ques-
ton is one over which there is discussion.
Here is the manner in which they settle
the vexed question in Cleveland;-A
watertight box mas been constructed, and
placed Ia an excavation made for it In
the rear end of the row of sheds where
the dogs are kept. This box or tank is
six feet square and three teet eight IN
ches deep. On either end are water
pipes, one for filing the tank and the 9TH
er tor carrying off the refuse water. There
IS also a wooden case of strong lattice
work, into which the dogs are driven and
this, worked by pulleys on a frame, can
be raised up or down when necessary.
and is used to submerge the dogs the
tank being kept filed with water for each
batch to be drowned

THE MANITowoc DISABLED The
Manito,coc left Chicago on Wednesday
morning of last week on her usual time.
When off Waukegan her crank-pin broke
totally disabling her. She commenced
drifting, and the captain ordered the an
chors dropped. They took hoId, and the
boat lay riding at ease until assistance
reached her. At noon the Orion was
dispatched to bring her into Chicago
She arrived there at about 6 O'Clock
In the evening. The damage to the Nan
ato,coc's machinery amounts to almost
nothing. 1t can be repaired in few
hours. Those on board the steamer did
not feel themselves in any particular dan
ger, but in the city considerable apprehen
sion was entertained. The Steamer is now
making her regular time.

THE RICHEST JOKE YET.-Yesterday
afternoon, as we are credibly informed,
while North circus was in full blast, the
old trick of riding the trained horse was
performed, and, as usual, one of the at
taches Of the circus perscnated a drunken
man. The Ring master. of course, told
him to leave, couldn't be bothered with
a drunken man etc. and finally called
for some one to put the fellow out. Now
it so happened that doughty constable
was present, and was probably anxious
for job. Here was chance to show his
muscle and no mistake. With bound
he was inside the ring, and siezing the
supposed drunken man started with him
for the door; and took him there too, in
short order. Of course every body saw
the joke save the constable and he ''saw
it, when he was outside the tent. It is
needless to say he did not 60 inside
again, though the drunken man did.

ANOTHER ACCIDENT.-The eldest child
of our friend Fred Seeger met with a Sc
rious accident yesterday while trying to
get on the bridge as it was swinging to
let the tug pass through. She was caught
between the two parts of the bridge, and
was severely injured breaking several
ribs-besldes being thrown into the river.
Parents cannot warn their children too
often, to be careful in crossing the bridge
Our only wonder is, that more such ac-
cidents Go not happen.

DnAMAr,c-On Monday and Tweed. :,

DRAMATIC On Monday and Tuesday
nights of the present week our citizens
were favored with the opportunity of
WITNESSING the performance of the first
class troupe known as "Macfar,and's
Dramatic Company. Our village has
been visited several times by similar Or
carnations, but none of them, ia our
opinion, succeeded in giving such entire
satisfaction as the one which has recently
been presented to US on the boards of
Turner Hail.
On Monday night was given the play
entitled ''The Honey Moon" and not
withstanding the fact that the same piece
has previously been played here 2um-
Der of times, it was given in a style which
could not fail to direct the attention and
admiration of all present. Each member
of the troupe carried out his role almost
to perfection, and the satisfaction of the
audience was perfectly evinced by the
way it was applauded. Following this.
came the very laughable farce, entitled
''The Mistaken Father" which had the
effect of making the most sour, cross
grained and ill-tempered of the entire
audience laugh most heartily. On Tues
day was presented the great moral drama
entitled ''Ten Nights in Bar Room, y
and was carried out with an effect which
frequently displayed itself by the nu-
merous fearful eyes which told how we'll
the efforts of the company were received.
In this play, little Jessie mcfarland, as
the Drunkard's child, and Mr. J. Fl.
Turnemes Joe Morgan, did splendidly.
In the barring farce which followed
'sIn and Out of Place were given some
fancy dances by Miss Jessie, which Judging
from the continued applause, "took"
very well
To night-(Thursday) will be given
that old but ever welcome piece "Uncle
Toms Cabin and we can assure our
readers that for an evening of genuine
entertainment, they may safely rely on
finding it at Turner Hall while Macfar-
lands Troupe is drawing such crowded
houses.
