Probate Notices.

1t is necessary that we call public atten
ton to the fact that it is the right Of execu-
tors or administrators of estates to have
their probate advertising done in any news
paper in the county they wish. Several
notices of this kind have appeared in the
Union which we have reason to know the
executors and administrators prefer should
have appeared in The ARGUS. They
leave the matter with Guyer, the county
judge, or with Cook, the clerk. and. in the
absence of any directions, they give them
all to the Union. Executors and admin
strators who want their notices published
in THE ARGUS should attend to that mat
ter themselves, and not leave it to Guyer
or Cook, or to the lawyers employed! THE
ARGUS only asks fair play, but it can't get
it unless executors and administrators will
attend to the matter themselves. tt

Numerous frost bites was one result of
the cold snap on Saturday last. The
mercury indicated 10 degrees below zero,
Sunday morning.
Mr.. Bigelow has just opened a large
stock of ready made clothing.
NJ. N. Gardner has just purchased the

owned by II. R. Latimer.
The temperance crusade has broken
out here fiercer than ever. On Monday
last, one of our citizens was taken to JEFF

minors. Yesterday he was again arrested
and brought before Esq. Wright, and the
trial set for Thursday Temperance
meetings are held every night, and on

Our citizens might perhaps be divided
into four classes, ,to-wit: farmers, mechan-
les, lightning rod men and show men
The first two classes are very much after
the sort of others in the same business,
elsewhere. The showmen are of the
highly moral and instructive variety
none ef your mean, low concerns. The
lightning rod men are not TO be outdone
on the score of morality, indeed. our Or
well neighbors claim that clergymen are
peculiarly adapted to the business. But
as our town has no clergymen to spare,
Joel had to go as chaplain for the cOmpa-
ny.
We also have very effective corps of
target rifemen, who go about the coun-
try winning bears and other prizes too nu-
merous to mention.
The ladies here are strictly fashionable.
That is they make their feet small, and
their heads large-Which we understand
to be the most essential points The
young ladies are mostly devoted to the
temperance cause, firmly refusing to go
with any young man who swears and
drinks whisky-unless he dresses stylish,
and drives a good rig. Still, we are
generally considered moral and temper
ate communicable weather for the past
few days having been the most intemper-
ate feature we have known, the mercury
ranging below zero for sever al days, and
on Sunday morning indicating 18 deg.

Ed Tsl.-Perhaps few words of credit
is due the people of this township for
their efforts in behalf of the Kansas and
Nebraska sufferers. A large box of
clothing and bedding. and barrel of
provision also, has been gathered up by
the pastors of the two churches here
Revs. s. W. Streeter and @. Dunmire-
the goods packed and sent off to some
poInt where most needed. The cash val
ue of the articles as appraised by good
judges, amounted to $131 35.
This town has always responded nobly
to the claims of suffering humanity. In
past years, the sufferers by fire in Chicago
and the Northwest, and the charitable in
stitutions of New York are remembered
by them every year. J.J.

1t is with regret that we note the death
of our fellow townsman, Mr.. Edward
French. Although Mr.. French had not
been in vigorous health for some time,
yet no apprehensions were entertained in
regard to him, until few days before his
death. A large circle of friends sympa-
thize with the bereaved family.
The week of prayer was observed in
the church, under the charge OF Rev. Mr..
Nutting. A fair congregation was in at
tendance throughout.
An effort is being made to raise supplies
for the Nebraska sufferers. Contributions
tor that purpose will be received at F. A.
Barnes store. They will be forwarded
to the proper authorities.
A temperance lecture was delivered at
the church last evening by Rev. Collins.
The collection taken at the close, we un-
derstand, was the largest he has ever re-
ceived.
A case of scarlet fever is reported in
