MIR. Stewart was too much under
the weather to teach the young ideas
how to shoot, last Monday Mrs. Stew,
art, however, filled the position OF
Principal manfully,,-to the entire sat
Iisfaction of the school.
Two women had a "bout' at
Seneca last week. They made the lit
tie inscription. I'VE will make our

been used as target. Warren sold a
new set of kitchen chairs on the NOR
row.
Bro. Mclaughlin has enlarged
the ,Steoens Point Journal to eight
| columns. The Journal is one of the
best papers in tie northwest, and as a
local sheet, has no superior. We are
glad to note this evidence of prosperity
in the Journal.

Tile Adams Go. Press comes out
with Centennial Sheet giving his
tory of every town in the county, be-
sides much other valuable information.
The present issue is seven column
quarto, but whether Bro. Pierce de-
signes to continue The Press this size,
or whether it is gotten up for this
special occasion deponent siath not. At
any rate, The Press is good paper
and we wish it may not be ensmalled.
The Adams Co. folk should see to it
that the Press be sustained literally.
The Fond du Lac Commonwealth
always excellent. assumes to improve
it's personal appearance by putting on
a new dress. This excellent journal
comes to US as fresh as peach and as
full of iuiciness. Under the. admins
tration of Waterous and Kutchin, the
| Commonwealth has become one of the
representative journals of the west.
We wish its uccess always, for it strikes
right out and don't stop to see if its
grandfather is in the way of its telling
blows:
Our City Fathers convened last
Monday evening. The session was
very quiet. The Reporter was not
very badly cussed. We ask the hon
orable body to show as no mercy; If
they have got anything against US,
spit it right out and your official
mouth will taste all the sweeter.
Not word was said about the several
license sums hitherto collected. We

paying $40 less or more somewhere.
