Mendoza Items.
MENDOZA, June 26, lSI

During the last three weeks an unusual
quantity of rain has fallen-much more than
necessity required AS usual 1t fell upon the
lust and the unjust, and our contiguify to the
debased people Of Ottawa accounts for so
much of the aforesaid aqueous element falling
on the very devoted and righteous heads Of
the MendotiaDs.
Notwithstanding this crops look excellent.
Grass and small gram never looked better.
Pasturage-an important feature in our To-
cality-is abundant. Corn, our great staple,
never looked better While the recent rains
have interfered with its cultivation, within
short time, no great harm has yet occurred
Our driving park association, as usual, are
promulgatng sporting events. Numerous
equine sights and displays are on the taps
for the 4th No other celebration will be at.
tempted.
Hon. l.. b. Croker will crate to the pris.
oners at Joliet on the 4th. This occurs through
a special invitation from the warden. He
says he is bound to address an audience once
that has got to listen to him. He states that
in his numerous speeches he generally no.
tees sort of "uurest"-a desire to retire on
the part of his audience-but that he thinks
he has got sure thing on holding them this
time.
Our city seems to be reasonably prosper
Gus this spring. Many very substantial dwell
lpgs are being erected, Among which
may allude to those of MeSsrs. Mai chester,
Thayer, Wormley, etc.
Louis Taylor, one Of our Oldest grain buy
ers, but tor some time retired, is now running
the Warren elevator at Earville.
The business changes are not important
and not Of sufficient moment to chronicle.
John Black, one Of our most esteemed cit
izeus, has just died. He Was an honest man
and the father of an excellent and honored
family,ani probably does not leave an enemy
on earth. His death results merely from ola
age, and vas painless and calm-a fitting ter
mnalion of long and blameless life.
George Price is about so leave his old time
location and practically retire from the bank
ing business. He will be succeeded by Mud.
den 81 Goldtner, Two young men.
A little sensation has just occurred, where.
in one Of our aldermen has made an ass OF
himself, as aldermen sometimes will. Alder.
man Coleman, the pugnacious representative
of the "bloody third" finding the night po-
liceman trying to ares. one Of his drunken
constituents, pitched in and disarmed him,
and afterwards got himself put into the lock.
up for his pains. lie is ore of those alder.
men who think that the financial, moral and
physical responsibility Of the municipality
rest upon their own poor shoulders all times
of night and day. Lack of "a proper basis
will probably prevent brain fever, however.
Yours. sc. p NUT.
