THE BRIGHT SIDE for May just re-
ceived, is fully up to its own high stand
ard of beauty and excellence. The pic
ture of Tommy Taylor" is capital, and
his story by Mrs. Sherwood, ditto. Other
things in its large variety Of contents
are almost equally good. In a few days
the publication of weekly edition OF
the paper will be commenced. The an.
nouncement will certainly be received
with great satisfaction by its very large
list Of readers. Though less than one
year old, it has already achieved name
and position among juvenile periodicals
which, to say the least, is enviable.

WESTWARD Ho!-We see in every
paper accounts of the immense immi-
grafton that is pouring Westward, and
surely, if we may judge by the number
of moving habitations which daily come
from the east and disappear toward the
west upon the various roads through
our own town alone, the number Of
those going westward to hoe" was
never larger.
A train of nine teams. several Of them
four horse, more than usually well
equipped in every respect, passed thro'
last Monday morning. This train was
particularly noticeable on account of
the occupant of one of the vehicles. We
say occupant, because, although two
horse rig, it carried but one nor was
there room for any more. He wasn't
going westward to hoe, not much.
Shade and palm leaf will suit him
best. If the party should be counted
and that old gentleman put in for less
than six, swindle is perpetrated. He

in which he rode from side to side, top
to bottom and from front to rear. His

looked broad enough to hold four first

The Woman Voting Question.

There is a woman over in Joliet with
few emphatic ideas on the topics
which agitate the bosoms OF portion of
her sex, and she talks in this way:
II just don't believe in these new
women notions. have raised Sax
boy's-four of them vote now, and the
Others will soon be old enough. Then
l will have six votes. Now these good
for nothing women who have fooled
their time away, and never raised a sim
gle boy, come around and want every
woman to vote for herself. ! don't be-
leve in such nonsense. l have raised
my six boys, and l am going to have
every one vote for me. Those women
who go lecturing around the country
instead of raising boys, have no business
to vote anyway. And when they say that
they are just as good as am, and have
right to vote themselves, if they have
no boys to do so for them, it is not true.
If they are as smart as I am, why did
they not raise some boys to vote for
them? l tell you, do not intend to be
cheated out Of my six votes by any such
good for nothing folks. | guess that
the world would become to pretty pass,
in mighty short time, If the women
all took to goin' around lecturing on
wimmin's rights, instead Of raising
boys"

ANOTHER FIRE.-Upon Monday af-
ternoon, the residence of Mr.. J. Keller,
about four miles west Of Upton, was
totally destroyed by fire. with almost its
entire contents. The fire caught from a
defective fiue, and was first seen in the
roof by Mr.. Keller himself. He at once
went upon the roof aud attempted to
extinguish it, but his efforts, unaided
except by his wife, were futile, and he
thus lost the opportunity of saving
anything from within. We think there
was no insurance.

III DO gay and happy STILL"
So sang a man one day last
week as he came out of the
Boot e Shoe. Hat Il Cup
Establishment known as the
BIG BOOT. Thinking il
singular that any sane man sho'd
use such unheard Of expressions
during such general depression
and hard times, our curiosity be-
came excited, and we entered the
Establishment to enquire the
cause of this mans high spirits
and queer expressions; but won-
der! our spirits began to 60 up
ward when Mr.. NJ. informed us
he had just received his Spring
Stock of Boots and Shoes, Hats
and Caps, and for CASH, was
selling them lower than ever. In
looking over his stock (Which we
assure our readers is completely
we were surprised to see a splen-
did ladies' serge fine finish full
Polish Lace Boot for only $3.50,
something unknown since before
the war. And we really think,
from the quality and finish of the
goods, and the prices marked on
them (Which are in plain figures
so all may know, that Mr.. M. is
selling his goods close on the
heels of the general decline in
prices.
We wish to call particular at
tention to his stock of Hats and
Caps, which appears to be very
full now, and yet he informs us
that he is expecting a heavy
invoice from New York this week,
and when they are in he will
have the Largest & Finest
stock of Fur, Silk, Felt, Wool,
Panama, Leghorn, Palm and
Straw in town. AS his is the only
House that Hats and Caps are a
speciality of course he can sell
the cheapest.
We wish again to call special atten-
ton to his Custom Shop. Mr.. Camp
bell is generally known to make tile
neatest aud best fitting Boot Of any
man in Cedar county; and the very best
brands Of French Calf and Kip are now
used in the Shop we were shown some
Calf costing $3.50 per ID. ut wholesale,
and we predict a heavier shop business
than ever. Mr.. Ed. Weeks gives his
individual attention to repairing. The
neatness and workmanlike manner in
which he does his work is too well
known to need comment from us.
We feel confident that it is only nee.
essary to call at the BIG Boot examine
goods and inquire prices to become d
permanent customer.
There IL no doubt about the place. for the
BIG BOOT can be seen from one end Of thu

EVERYBODY hereabouts has heard Of
Saum's mules, their theft and the per-
sistent search for the thief that was
made by the Saums, which resulted in
the arrest Of one Joy, Mt Stanwood, as
the supposed depredator. Joy is now
in Jail at Anamosa, and his trial, which
will come off at the next term of the
District Court in Jones Co., promises to
be one of unusual interest-an interest
that is increased from the fact that
Judge Leffingwell, perhaps the best
criminal lawyer in the State, has been
engaged for the defense. Joy has lived
for a number Of years at his present
home, some three miles from Stanwood,
and we are informed has been man
more feared than loved by his neigh
bors, and less understood than either.
OF great personal strength and not of a
particularly peaceful disposition, many
stories are told concerning his taking
summary vengeance for real or fancied
injuries. He is reported to have been
often from home for considerable periods
of time upon unknown business, which
rumor now says has cast strange sur
misses in his direction long previous to
his arrest.

A SAD CAsE.-Mr. ]. w. Thompson,
of Monroe township, at last term of the
District Court procured a divorce from
his wife. She then went to Illinois and
remained there until week or two ago
when she returned. Upon her return
she learned that his children and hers
were very sick Of whooping cough, aud
without invitation she went to the house
and nursed the children. Mr.. Thomp-
son not desiring her assistance filed an
information before Esquire Holiday, of
this city, charging her with being a
vagrant in having no visible means Of
support. On the warrant issued, Sheriff
Tullis arrested her, forcing her from her
children, "a most unpleasant job he
says,) and upon trial she was declared a
vagrant, but fortunately was able to
give the bonds the law requires and was
set at liberty. When Mr.. Thompson
got in his wagon to start home, she,
without waiting an invitation, jumped
iuto it and went out of town with him.
