Do not forget the Excursion to Dubuque
on Friday of this week. A host of our

like it /! McGregor Brass and String Bands

Mr.. james Moody, Scn'r., was married

him AMI his partner lots of happiness.
Remember the excursion to Dubuque,
and do not forget the races at Prairie du

We know, but if you inquire, you will be
moro likely to remember.
The Methodist Festival was very nice
affair. Not so largely attended as in the
flush times of former years, but it was q
reasonable success in the way of funds,
viz: $500.
The German Methodist campmeeting
near Giard was like all other gatherings of
the same sort. Some very pious people
and some wild boys. Rain attended, of
course.
We have had an acre of visitors. since
the last issue, but we cannot name them
all. They know they are welcome at this

BUGs-How to kill Cucumber bugs. A
friend, whose feet are tender, tells us
Of q remedy that is sure. He was told
that his feet could be hardened by bathing
them in salt water, and relieved of pain
by adding some kerosene. He tried the
bathing, and of course used soap to work
of the dust on his feet. It was dry weather
and after getting through with the ablution
he sprinkled his vines with the compound
liquid, and to use his expressive words
"D-n the bug have l seen since"
Whether success resulted from the salt,
the kerosene, the soap or the liquidized
odor from unwashed feet or from all COM
bined he could not say, but the bugs didn't
like it and the vines went right ahead.
This is true. Our own trial of it proved q
success.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

About 104 o'clock on Tuesday night
June l4) the alarm of"Fire!'' was heard.
The flames were first discovered in the
pattern room of the foundry Of Hornung
4 Schmidt on Second street. A blast was
worked off in the afternoon, the work
being completed about 80 in the evening,
and it is believed that the ere was the re-
suit Of sparks from the furnace finding
their way through some crevice into the
room where the inaamable material with
which it was filed became an easy prey
to the destroyer. From this the flames
spread south to the cooper shop and
rcsider ce of John Fisher, to consume
which was but few moments work.
On the other side the Hellwig buildings
were occupied, first, by j. Weigand & Co.,
machineists and founders; second Truses-
dell 4 Co., manufacturers Of the Truesdell
iron bridges; third, J. A. Conlee, agricul-
tural implement dealer, and, on the Sec
ond floor, the family of J. Hellwig. These
buildings were fetal loss.
The engine, material and the entire
working apparatus, including six thousand
dollars worth Of patterns, belonging to
Hornung & Schmidt were all lost. Of the
engines, lathes, iron planners, FORCES, tools,
stock and work on hand, foundry fixtures,
and patterns belonging to John Hellwig-
John Weigland 4 Co., lessees- nothing
was saved. The machinery and patterns
used in the construction of the Trssdell
iron bridges were all secured without
much injury.
j. A. Conlee succeeded in removing all
his agricultural implements to the street
in more or less damaged condition. John
Hellwig's furniture was all removed but
Of course much damaged. NJ. O'Brien's
building barely escaped destruction by the
flames which at one time seemed to bid de-
fiance to all the energy of the faithful
working Of some who merit much praise
for their daring and good work. Mr..
OBrien's goods were all taken cut and
probably damaged heavily. O'Brien L
Connally, grocers also, moved part of their
stock and will sustain more or less damage.
We are without correct estimate Of the
loss, but it is enough and falls heavily up
on persons but lily able to bear it,
Roughly estimated. the entire loss car
not fall far short of THIRTY THOUSAND
DeLLARs, insured for between seven and
eight thousand. A part, if not all of this
burnt district, we are told, will he imme-
diately rebuilt.
This fire is more serious than an ordi-
nary one Of mere houses. 1t is city and
county loss. We were dependent on it
for repairs of all sorts. 1t was our CEN
trail mandatory. We hope our liberal
citizens will be selfish enough to raise
funds to re-iustate it, and put the losers
back in the old shape.

The Baptist Festival comes off on
Thursday evening. Mrs. Miller is Su-
perintendent. Her presence is guar
antee for the most attentive courtesy
and the highest point of social happi-
ness. We did not think of going to
another meeting of the kind, but the
appreciation of a friendship of so many
years, and one so highly esteemed,
shakes our resolution and we are oblig-
ed to surrender. We will come, if
alive, or send a card if otherwise
