Take Notice.

Our subscribers will doubtless have noticed
that we have adopted a new plan for address
ing the BULLETIN to its patrons. On each pa
per will be found printed label, on which,
besides the name Of the subscriber, is the date
to which his subscription is paid, by means of
which every one will know at a glance just
how his account stands. Thus, If Peter Jones
finds on his paper the following: up. Jones, I
July IT, he will know that his copy of the
BULLETIN is paid for up to July LIST, 1877, and
that he is nearly pix months in arrears. 1t is
naturally expected, if he has the right sense of
his duty, that he will Immediately step In and
renew 1t to July 1873, and that all the other
Jones, and Smiths, and Browns, and everybody
else, will go and do likewise, especially If their
subscriptions are a year, or two years in ar
rears-as many of them are. Now, will every
body take the hint without further dunning?

SUICIDE AT FAIRBANK-We have the
report, but very scant details, of terri
BILE tragedy that occurred at Fairbank
last Monday. From the vague particu-
lars We have been able to obtain, it APP
pears that an old man of about 60 years,
bachelor, residing in that village, nam
ed Addis-but no relative of the we'll
known family of that name in the same
town-had been sick for some time, and
latterly had become discouraged and on
several occasions had predicted that his
term Of life was of short duration On
the day in question he was some better,
so as to be up and around. Telling the
lady Of the house where he boarded that
he thought he would 60 to work, he
went up into the second story of the
house. A few minutes later the woman
heard jar of the window and heavy
thud on the ground outside the house,
and upon going out discovered Adds
lying on the ground, dead. Examina-
ton showed his neck to be broken, and
across the top of his head was deep
cash, showing that he had plunged head
foremost to the hard ground and had
thus received his death. This account
may not be exact in all particulars, but
it is the only version of the affair we
have been able to chase down.

EDITOR OF BULLETIN:-It may be of
interest to some of your many readers to
see in your valuable journal synopsis
Of the doings at St. James church for
the past few days. On Sunday last
advent Sunday the Ri. Rev. Bishop
Perry made his regular visitation Of St.
James Parish, preached in the morning,
and during the session of Sunday school
administered the apostolic rite Of con-
firmation to one candidate, and after
wards catechized the Sunday school.
Witnessed the mode of conducting
the Sunday School Missionary Society,
which meets on the first Sunday of the
month, and expressed himself delighted
with the same At Z o'clock evening
service was held, when perhaps the
largest congregation ever assembled in
the beautiful edifice greeted the Rt
Rev. Prelate, who, after evening service
by the Rector, preached most earnest
and eloquent sermon, at the close OF
which the Rector presented class Of
| q persons, to whom the Bishop admin
istered the apostolic rite Of confirmation
making most affectionate and earnest
address to the newly confirmed. At the
close of the solemn rite, after singing 9
hymn, the large congregation were dis
missed by prayers and the apostolic
| benedictiOn.
The Bishop spent Monday in visiting
with the Rector, the sick pensioners, tt
one of which members he administered
the apostolic rite of confirmation, max
ing q during the visitation presented
for this solemn, ancient, simple, apostolic
rite.
On Monday evening divine service wa
held at o'clock and sermon preached
by the Rev. Samuel Ringgold, Of Ceda
Rapids, the Bishop with eight of hi
presbyters being present and partici
pating. At the close of this service

A PROMINENT and influential member
of our City Council made the statement
to US, as fact, the other day, that one
half or more of the members of the
Council have not only known from their
own knowledge during the past year
that the saloons licensed by the city to
sell beer and wine were violating the
terms Of their licenses, and rendering
them forfeit by selling whisky, but that
some of the Councilmen had even
bought and drank whisky over the bars
OF those places. Now, this is not our
statement nor do we vouch for it's truth
but if it is true, what sort of sense of
duty and responsibility must men be
possessed of who will thus wink at and
encourage the violation of the laws made
by their own body. In the light of this
revelation, what becomes of the excuse
urged by some of the Council last win
ter, when asked to put in force recent
resolution of the Council, and to revoke
the license of a saloon for selling whis-
ky, that they had no evidence that the
man did sell whisky" Again we ask, if
the facts are as stated by our informant,
is it not time, citizens of Independence,
that we have officers of our city govern
ment who will not make farce and
mockery of the city ordinances?

The IRiBULATIoNs or WH1sKr.
Among the oon-keepers who surren
dered their licenses into the hands o.
the Mayor to avoid prosecution and fine
for selling intoxicating liquors, and, or
second thought, assuming that it would
not be much Of a shower, reclaimed theil
licenses and resumed their business
was that faint upon womanhood, "Lize'
Stewart The action of these parties
was direct challenge to the temper
ance people to do their worst. 1t was
accepted and .'Lize" was the first select
ed to feel the weight of the law. Her
case came up before the Mayor on W ed
nesday, Mr.. Jamison appearing as the
champion of the woman, and F. D. Jack
son for the prosecution. The result
was verdict for Lie through some
alleged defect in the papers, or other
technicality. Other attorneys, howev-
er, not engaged in the case, say that the
points made by the defense had no
bearing on the case, and that the prose-
cution was beaten by the jury. Be that
as it may, the liquor men and their sup
porters were greatly elated. Their joy,
however, was of short duration. An
other information was yesterday sworn
out against "Lize," and a warrant Of
search placed in the hands of Marshal
Leslie, who, taking the Sheriff and Con-
stable Handy with him, again went
through the shebang over which "Lize"
presides. The result was the finding of
about eight gallons of whisky in beer
key, hid away in the sleeping room of
sister of Lie" who lives in the house.
When the scent began to get hot, this
sister got right up on her belligerancy,
and threatened to shoot the first man
who entered her boudoir. But the Off
GERS quailed not, but with ruthless tread
entered the bower of beauty and inno-
cence, triumphantly brought forth the
key of contraband spirits as aforesaid,
and bore it away from the agonized sight
Of Lie" and her interesting family.
The trial Of the case will probably come
off tomorrow.
