DIED.-At 1920 o'clock yesterday
morning, our fellow townsman, Mr. VIM.
Robbins, whose family residence is on
Chatham street, departed this life. He
was taken very i'll about three weeks ago,
and although at times he revived and was
apparently much better, yet his death
was not unexpected. Had there been a
perfect understanding of the nature of his
disease, there is a possibility that life
might at least have been prolonged; but
we understand that such was not the case.
The cause of his death was an abscess in
the stomach, which broke yesterday NOR
ming, from which time until death reliev-
ed him, his suffcrings were severe. His
age was SO. He leaves wife and one
son to mourn the absence of husband
and father The funeral ceremony takes
place this friday afternoon at 2 o'clock

FINE APPLEs.-Mr. Adam Hoover, who
resides in Newton township, in this coun.
ty, brought into our office this week one
of the finest displays of apples it has ev,
er been our fortune to witness. The ap
pies were raised on Mr.. Hoover's farm
and embrace some thirteen or fourteen
varieties of both sour and sweet, eating
and cooking, little and big. The sight of
them will utterly dispel the idea that
Iowa, Buchanan county and Newton
township cannot raise the best apples in
the world. Mr.. Hoover will please ac'
cept our thanks.

THE HOME CLUB.-As per announce
ment the Dramatic Home Club of Man
chester gave dramatic entertainment at
Kings Opera House last week, Friday
evening, and though we were not able to
attend, we hear from those who did at
tend that the performance was very merit
orlous The house was not half as full
as it should have been, but the audience
was appreciative and recognized degree
of talent not often seen among amateur
performers. We trust that when they
may visit our city again, a full house will
greet them

GREENBACK STRATEGY

MIR. EDIToR:-It requires time to dis
Germ the true inwardness" of many
schemes. When Buffalo and Byron town
ships began to furnish gigantic eXpound
ers of finance in the persons of certain
individuals, the impression was quite gen
eral that these persons were sincere in
their efforts to reform what to them was
an evil. II turns out that the public good
was their object that is, in the Mas
by sense. Public good or reform from a
Nasty standpoint means office for Nasty
Bascom & Co. Look at the list:
Chief Apostle Spangler for NJ. c.; Dep
uty Apostle Gaylord for Clerk; Deputy
Apostle Russell for Register; Scribe Rich
for Justice of the Peace
That some have failed and that all will
end in smoke does not change the main
point. The blowers and strikers of in.
tlation who talk Cooper and mean Tilden
will be laid where the hungry host of cx,
rebels in the South and their abettors in
the North will after November next find
themselves. S. W
