The Beetown Masonic Party,

The hall that the Masons have been building
is at length completed, and on the evening Of
the 9th ult., the doors were thrown open for
ball and banquet In spite OF muddy roads,
and stormy weather, there were gathered to-
gether from all points of the compass excepting
the cold North, such company as rarely as
semble on such an occasion. By nine o'clock
the spacious hall and the reception rooms
were well filed. Dancing began at an early
hour, and the lovers of the Macy waltz did not
desist till cary morn. Owing to the inclem
ency of the weather the attendance was not
so large as was expected. some seventy or
eighty couple being present, and we could not
help but notice the grace and female lowell
ness that were present. The music, which
was exceedingly good, was furnished by the
Beetown string band, assisted by, as a wit
said, band "strung all the way from Musca-
lunge to the Hurricane" grand supper was
provided in the old Masonic hall The tables
were loaded with delicscies of every descrip-
ton. In fact one of the grandest suppers
ever provided in Beetown on any occasion. -
Many who were present, not participating in
dancing, spent the evening vesy pleasantly in
other amusements which were provided for
the occasion. Great credit is due TO the ladies
for the manner in which they entertained
their guests--and we did not fail to notice
that all present seemed to enjoy themselves
Many thanks for the success of the ball and
banquet are due to Messrs Hathaway, Butch.
inson. Hall, Stephens, Birch, Wise and 9TH
ers whose names we do not now recall.

PIatteville Engine Company's Time

The sth annual parade, concert and dance of
the Mound City Engine Co., of Plattevllle, on
last Thanksgiving eve., November ,6, 1879,
was brilliant effort, rejecting great credit to
the Company. Notwithstanding copious show
ers of rain, raw, cold winds, muddy roads, &C.,
S. out of the 90 members participated in the
full dress street parade, and headed by the
Monroe Band marched through the principal
streets in the afternoon, as promised they
would do in carrying out the programme.
The concert in the evening was given by the
entire Monroe Cornet and Reed Band, consist
ing Of 10 musicians. The selections consisted
Of military and operate music from many cele-
brated composers, it all being Of the highest
order, many pieces being very difficult of exc
cution. However, the band rendered their en-
tire programme in a superb and mastery man
ner that was highly appreciated and loudly APP
plauded by the largest audience that has ever
greeted band concert in Patteville.
The band members were very elegantly uni
formed, wearing black helmet hats with red
and white plumes. dark blue coats with gilt
tering buttons and grey pants. Each uniform
was elegantly set off with military trappings.
This being the advent Of this great band in
Platteville. everybody looked forward to the
time Of their coming with great expectations.
Now that they have come and gone, we want
20 say that if any were disappointed it is be-
cause they have no appreciation Of fine music.
We want to say furthermore, that the or
chestra for the dance consisted Of 10 performers
from the band that kept right along with their
good music until IS o'clock in the morning, +"
just as if nothing had happened.
The supper was splendid, and sumptuously
served. The tables were waited on by corps
of very pleasant and attentive young ladies,
very becomingly attired, who seemed deter
mined no one should leave their tables with
appetite enough left for the Thanksgiving din
ner.
All seemed to be enjoying themselves and
hs ing good time. The excellent CIDER that
has always characterized the entertainments
given by the Mound City Engine Co, has won
for them the patronage and approval of the
community; and their entertainments are al
ways looked forward to from year to year
with a great deal OF interest and pleasure. 7

The Ballie Burning Matter.

The item in last HERALD has revived the
interest in the injuries threatened against
Mr.. Baille. Many desire to see the whole
letter, but we think best to show ii to no per-
son except Mr.. Bailie. II was no doubt
written by the same person that wrote The
letters TO Sheriff Streeter and to Mr.. Stone
but as stated last week we do not believe
their author is the person who set fire to Mr..
Baiie's property. On showing the letter to
Mr.. Bailie he wished us to address its author
abou, as follows:
You have addressed my neighbors, charg-
ing me with crimes and threatening my pro-
perty aud my lite. If have committed the
crime you charge il will be easy for you
through the HERALD or by letter to me
TO say against whom the crime was commit
ted. If l murdered any one who was il, VIII e
was ii and where was it? My history
and my character are known in this county
for good many years. know that have
committed no crime against the laws Of
this country. | do not know of any neighbor
or other person who entertains the belief
that | have committed crime and defy aay
person TO show any foundation or any crime
whatever against me. Now if you believe
what yoG charge il certain you are labor
ing under hallucination. Whoever you are
you are supposed 10 have reasoning faculties.
You will not want TO have revenge unless
have done you wrong If you have been
wronged at all / know | am not the man
against whom you should seek revenge. If
you will meet me any,shere OR make known to
me the wrong you harboi against me may
be able to convince you of your mistake II
have committed any crime | am willing i;
shall be made known to the public and to be
tried by the laws, but no amount of harrassing
or threats or destruction ofproperty will in
duce me 10 leave the country or nay place of
residence. JOSEPH BAILIE.
II IS fair to presume that the person here
addressed will see this. He charges Mr.
Bailie with murder, but there are persons
here who have known Mr.. Baiie probably
ever since he was old enough to commit
murder and not one can be found who can
think Of any missing person that could have
been put out of the way by him. His ques-
ton, then, Who was it? is pertinent and fair.
Will the Enemy to viola ers Of the 9th
COMMANDMENT please inform the HERALD
some way or other who the murdered per-
son was? If il was in Grant county is il
possible that a murder was committed that
no person ever knew anything of? If the
avenger will only satisfy US that murder
was committe and where and when the
deed was done, as intimated last week we
shall do all in our power to help him to re-
venge against the perpetrator.

persons being in attendance. Her remains
were inferred in the village cemetery, and
there await the resarrec ton morn. A.c.

"Frirhteninc Inyalids,

The pupular impression, strengthened by
some scientific opinions, that consumption
cannot be cured, has no doubt FASTENED the
death of many invalids, by depriving them Of
the consolation of hope. Persons afflicted

that consumption is ineurable, and let physi-

of evidence to prove that persons having all
