Prof Thomas delivered very III
teresting lecture at the Centralia School
House last Tuesday evening. A fair
audience greeted Prof. I. and if it
was not profitable to the lecturer, it
certainly must have been to his audience
who learned some new scientific truths.
We ask our readers to be a little
patient with us. Sickness among the
little ones, and incessant night and day
watching ism conducive to the getting
up of very readable paper. We
hope to be all well again shortly, when
we will have more time to attend to
our office duties.
The NJ. E. Quarterly Meeting,
will be held in Plover, commencing
Friday Sept. Goth and lasting until
Sunday evening the 2Sth. Rev. J. D.
Cole, Of Grand Rapids, will preach at
the usual time Sunday morning, and
the Presiding Elder in the evening.
See the proceedings of the Fire
Engine Co. Meeting. A sterling COM.
pany has been organized-please add
our name Mr. Foreman--andw we rath-
er think the old fire fend will get
licked like "blazes'' when he shall
come again.
1t is rumored that the G. B. Co.
charged $50 for transporting our
steamer from Green Bay to Grand
Rapids. and much dissatisfaction is ex-
pressed thereat If this be so, we
venture the assertion that Mr.. Melhn
will remit a portion, if not all the
amount.
The Moore Bros are putting up an
extensive building in Centrala to be
used as Glove Factory. The boys
are adopts in the business and can make
a. good Il glove as was ever wore in
the Pinery. The building will be an
ornament to our sister town We wish
the ''boys' large success.
The prevailing epidemic, which is
undoubtedly a species Of scarlet fever
seems to have been very general in its
visitation; almost every family having
had Que or more Of the little ones sick
with it. The cool temperature and
recent storms will undoubtedly prove
beneficial in allaying the scourge.
The season is approaching when
stoves will be put up, and it behooyes
every good housewife to look out for
fires. See that the pipe holes and
chimneys are all right that the chin
neys have not settled during the sum-
mer, leaving cracks and assures where
the fire may insinuate itself Look to
it that all is safe, and coax the cold
man" not to swear when he puts the
pipe together, for, verify, a little fire
kindleth a great smoke, we guess that's
it, We don't know.
A gentleman whose name we have
not learned is intending to execute lith-
ograph prints of our City and Contra
la. very soon, the SAME to show every
dwelling and business block, street,
water privilege &c. &c. on both sides
the river. The intention Of Mr.. Neeves
to platt the open ground in the rear of
the Bank will retard the work until
such plating is done. when we may
expect to see our City and Centralia
with all their excellencies portrayed
in such a manner that we will all feel
proud to send copies to our friends.
IF Stevens Point is obliged to do
without the ". Y. r. r., our citizens
can stand it. 1t was more for the in
terest of said road to voluntarily come
to our city, than for US to pay great
sum to open the eyes of said company
to their own interest. Our loss will be
small compared with that Of the COM
pany. If they can afford to pass by
the metropolis of the pinery, let them
drive Oh with their cart.
We copy the above from the Pizcon-
sin NAinery; the first that Journal
has had to say about the recent rail-
road decision. Metropolis Of the
Ptnery is pretty good.
We have received the first num-
