ii Probably we ought to say, ;alinlnoyyanct
es rather than >liuisances in referring
to several things which need regulat-
ing In the village; For some weeks
there has been more or less Of drunken
and disorderly conduct iii our midst.
Our night w;,tchman should, have full
power to arrest any persons who indulge
in disorderly conduct, whether they
are under the influence of liquor or not
and place should be provided IN
which to lock them up over night.
Complaint has been; made to lis of dis
orderly conduct about. scme of our
restaurants and places of resort by men
and boys who laugh ut the officers and
rest in the belief that they can contin.
ue their rowdyism with impunity.
Another cause Of complaint is the
existence of pig stys within convenient
smelling distance Of our residences and
churches. On warm nights, when the
atmosphere is in good condition for
carrying sound and smell. these pig
stys or enclosures, have things their
own way, and ill not only our noses
but our houses with an oder not quite
as agreeable rs tile smell of new ,mown
hay. Added to this Is the waste of
the houses, so much of which is thrown
out upon the surface. Unless there
is some amendment in these matters,
our village will be like Cologne where
Coleridge smelt over a hundred ''sep-
arate and we'll defined inks" Still
worse, we are in danger, now that hot
weather is upon. us, of having some
prevailing sickness induced by this
surface filthiness.
Another annoyance is the accumula-
tion of water upon our streets whenever
there is any considerable rainfall.
The water stands in pools in front of
our business houses and teams stand
ing in the mud and water appear to
enjoy the pastime Of SCATTERING mud
upon pedestrians and front windows.
This surface water could all lie turned
into the east lake OF into some Of the
bitches with very little labor.
We invite attention all round to
these matters. The people ask the
Village Concil to act promptly if amy
additional ordinances are required,
and if not, to see that the old ones are
enforced.

On Tuesday at noon, it reached 100.
Those who think Minnesota an arctic

believe that the average temperature of
St. Paul and Philadelphia is the same.
The effects of the heat have been dis
astrous in some instances. Elsewhere
we give an account Of 4 partial sun

Then take the best and only first class
route, which is via OF st. Paul with
good connections, fast trains and every
convenience and comfort known to the
travelling public. By taking this popu-
lar through, route you avoid the delays
and hotel expenses incident to other
routes; you avoid travelling on freight
and accommodation trains; you avoid
night travel; you avoid tedious trans
fers and all the other discomforts pecu-
liar to other lines. and you reach Cllica-
go six hours quicker than by any other
route. The St. Paul & Sioux City road
have added elegant parlor and sleeping
coaches to their already fine equipment
and now make the fastest passenger
time of amy road III the Northwest.
W. II. Dixon has assumed the duties
of G. p. a. of this road and this is am

DIAGONAL ROAD.

In a recent issue, we called attention
to this road AZ being in very bad con-
dition. Since the publication Of the
item, we learn that farmers in that
direction are going to work with u will
to make Il good road to Miller. even t.
the putting III of stone abutments to
some of the bridges. A go)d road will
turn the trade to Miller, and while we
wish our friends out there abundant
prosperity we wish to suggest to the peo-
pie of Worthington that they need 4.
good road into their place also. The
time is near at hand when the diago-

CASUALTIES.

NAN DROWNED IN JACK CREEK-SCN-
STROKE.
On Friday morning last, Alonzo
Fish, IL young man about 20 years of
age, WAS drowned in Jack Greek, near
Graham Lakes. He had been keeping
Il lemonade stand 1T the camp meeting
and started to Worthington to lay in
supplies. About half past four he un-
dertook to crcSs with Il team at Downs
ford. The morning was foggy, and
Mr.. F. probably could not see the ex-
tent of thu danger. The water had
risen 50 that it was about IL feet deep
and the current was quite strong. 1t
seems that the horses swan across but
failed to make the opposite side, and
being checked up, they fell back into
the water and were drowned. Wheth-
er Mr.. Fish jumped out or fell out can
only be conjectarcd. The wagon bed
was found right side Up, the buffalo
not even wet, and the whip in an up
right position leaning against the seat.
The most plausible theory is that Mr..
F. jumped out and attempted to get
ashore, but not beinga swimmer, was
drowned.
Mr.. Downs discovered the team and
wagon as soon us the fog cleared away
and gave the alarm. Mr.. Cunningham
and others assisted in taking the team
and wagon out. Parties then went to
camp meeting, ascertained who the
man was, procured boat and return
|. . ell and searched fol- the body without
success.
On Saturday morning, J. H. Cum
ningham and his brother A. E., togetll-
| er with Mr. Downs and his hired man,
continued the search wading in the
creek. About 80 rods below the ford,
in about five feet of water, J. II. Cum
ningham discovered the body, which
theyrtoo out and removed to the camp
grounds at the lakes. The friends
came from Dondin and took charge Of
the remains.
Mr.. Fish's father. we learn, was the
first postmaster at Bondin. The young
man is highly spoken Of by those who
| knew him. .c:>
While taking cafe Of the body on
Saturday, L. Bowen, the Worthlagton
undertaken, was exposed to the fierce
rays Of the sun to such an extent as to
cause something like sunstroke. How
ever, he was not prostrated until next
day, when the attack was so severe
that it was feared he could not survive.
We are glad to announce that Mr.. B.
is recovering and is able to be about
again.

Concerning the present status Of the

forcefully admitted in the following
extract from recent sermon by a dis

1--WE are afraid of Ingerson and his
infidelity, and we'll we may be. We
are in no condition to meet the enemy.
He is s&pping the foundation of our
faith, and say boldly, with sense Of
the weight of responsibility resting on
me, tt Christianity does not influence
the life of Christians more than it now
does in this country, there is little to
choose between them. While leaders
Of the churches are bankrupt, while
honest men by the thousands have
their hard earnings taken from them
either by recklessness, extravaganza or
premeditated scoundrelism, while wild
ows and orphans nre robbed Of their
little all, and are suffering for the bare
necessaries Of life, and crying to God
in their distress for help, and the men
who do these things not only belong to
the church and go uDTebuked, but in
very many cases are leaders of it

is not enough of the spirit Of Christ in
