FOR WEST POINT.
James X. Chapman Was the Successful Can
didate.

didate.
From the time 4 child enters the common
school as 4 pupil until he attains the coveted di.
pona as graduate Of Yale, Harvard or West
Point, the approach of examination day is look
ed upon with a certain uneasness that amounts
to absolute fear lest some classmate outstrip him
in the examination and compel him to take a
grade below that which, under less exciting cir
cumstances, he would easily have won.
The same restless anxiety Of which we have
spoken was visible in the countenances OF the
- applicants who. with manly bearing, We'd for
the position as cadet at West Point last week.
1t was the observation Of very many who saw
the young men IA they entered the examiners
room, that in gcntlemanly bearing and whole
some intelligence, they were as fine class as
ever entered a list The physical examination
was made by DR.. Macarthur, and the scholastic
examination by Judge Harris, OF Morris; Mr..
Ashley, of Kendall county; and Lieut.. Arthur L.
Wagner, of this city.
On Wednesday Of this week. the committee
pronounced their preference for James X. Chap
man, Of Freedom township in this county, and
he was accordingly recommended for the place.
The successful applicant is, in height, about 5
it. in, we'll built, has very expressive and
keen eye, in short, is the model of good looking
young man. He is twenty one years of age, and
native of La Sale county For few years
past he has been student at the University of
Chicago, (of the class Of III and demonstrated
during that time his ability and disposition to
master any and all studies in which he has been
engaged.
We fully believe that the selection made by
the examiners is just, and while we would have
liked to see the entire class successful, we are
satisfied that in Nr. Chapman our congressional
district has representative who will graduate
with high honors, Who in time of peace will
make an estimable citizen, and, should the bugle
call to battle, in time of war, well skilled and
able officer

The County FAIR

During the week prior to the holding of the
State Fair in this city, our neichbors in Kendall
county will hold their annual county fair. From
CORES pondencc received, we feel justified in al.
ready announcing their fair success. The old
settlers OF Kendall county will hold their re-un-
ion at Bristol in competition with the fair, and
the C., B. IL Q. road will carry passengers at ex-
cursion rates. This will afioJd an excellent OPP
portunity for our citizens TO pay our neighbors a
friendly visit, and view the large pumpkins and
lovely girls that grow spontaneously in and
around forkvile Let's all 90.

band Excursion,

We regret exceedingly that through some
mishap We failed to give notice and a word Of
encouragement in our last issue, to the eXcur
sion given by our excellent brass band on Wed
nesday evening. The band is one of which OF.
tawa should be justly proud, and their excursion
WAS one of which every citizen should be heart
lily ashamed. Any resident o. Ottawa who has
heard, for year past, their excellent music and
who has Witnessed the energy displayed by the
band boys in procuring new music and success
fully rendering it, will blush to know that less
than twenty persons had interest enough in
their welfare to join them in musical moon
light excursion on the river. Probably the next
gratGitous catch-pcnny carnival that is held the
band will again donate Its services in considera-
ton of the promise, 1--WE always patronize you
when we have a chance" 1t rs simply abomina-
ble the way the band was patronized. We trust
that the boys will arrange for another boatride
and keep list of their patrons-we would like
to secure their namcs as relic. Boys, hunt for
your money where you lost it, and get up anoth.
