G. Pfster is again negotiating for the
sale of his property at this place.
A new veneered school house is to be
built IN District No. 4, town OF Gibson,
in the place of the one recently destroyed
by fire.
z. Landsee contemplates making 4
trip 10 Europe, during the summer.
Considerable building is being done
this season. Messrs. Schroeder, Pfunder,
Schulz, Girka and Radtky have large
barns in process of erection.
The scow Alaska is as fruitful source
OF items as the roads and the weather, or
teachers meetings in their palmiest days.
The unlucky craft was sold at auction on
the 18th inst. to Hans Petersen; who has
again disposed of it to NJ. Mathison.
The Gibson Temperance Union at
present numbers one hundred and one
members and is constantly increasing.
Their present quarters having been
found inadequate to the growing demand
OF the society, they have resolved to
erect commodious ball for their own
use. The famous Jack Warburton lee
lures before the society, next Thursday
evening.
The recent fires have destroyed much
| valuable timber in this section. Groves,
that again and again withstood the fury
Of the devouring element now become a
prey to it. and neither beauty, youth nor
| strength preserves them. Indeed forests
graced with ali these qualities seem to
have been particularly singled out and
the tallest trees swept bare of their leaves.
! Some time recently, JOS. Stangel of
the town of Mishicott, while blowing
! turned over a number Of small rocks
bearing a strong resemblance to iron
ore. On digging he finds that they in
crease in quantity with the depth. He
proposes to prosecute his Investigations
and if the results prove as favorable as
lie expects, he will certainly have ''strucl1
it rich" OF course we wish him moth
! inc less than success. but congratulations
are not yet In order.
A bungling attempt at swindling
| number Of farmers in this vicinity by
one Havill, at present of Lincoln Ke-
waunee county, was brought TO light last
week by the attempt on the part of that
| individual to collect number of notes
alleged to have been made in favor of
| him by the first named parties some
years ago. The forgeries are poorly ex-
ecuted and will probably serve the anna
tenr copyist no other purpose than to
liquidate his board bill at Waupun for a
short term of years.

SOME Of our exchanges complain that
the circus which is to visit this city on
the % of July, Is accompanied by the
usual class of rowdies, gamblers and
cheats. No civilized community should
tolerate a repetition Of the doings of
Forepaugh's circus. 1t is not only an
outrage on the individuals who suffer
directly, but a reproach to the corpora
ton whose duty it is to protect the peo-
pie from imposition and outrage. The
city authorities should appoint special
police, men who are not merciful on ac-
CONT of their fears and who would will
lingly run the whole outfit including the
baby elephant into the lock up. Ii the
officers viii have the grit to make arrests
instead of demonstrating, they viii have
as strong backing from tie citizens on
the grounds as they could desire.

The lively little showers that were
received yesterday, have cooled the air
considerably and spread a darker bright
er tinge of green over the fields and
woodlands. The showers were not Mt all
of the poorest kind, and yet it seems as
if the thirsty earth signs for more and is
not afraid Of getting ''too full" The
healthy appearance that the crops now
wear, really fill my heart with glee. And
rs 1 pass on from section to section I
can not help admiring and mentioning
tie large and we'll cultivated fields, the
beautiful barns, and the substantial
frame and brick houses. All of which
strongly prove that the town of Meeme
ranks among the foremost in agriculture
and wealth, and that>its farmers are in
dustrious, tasgy, and of an intelligent
kind. From the above the reader might
naturally come to tie conclusion that
the writer had fallen in love with the
town of Meeme, or is otherwise trying

such is not the case. / am speaking the

Another warm gentle rain Saturday
makes the farmers rejoice over the crop
prospects. They were getting despon-
dent on account of the long drought, and
the recent frosts which were becoming
as numerous rs Hayes vetoes,
Another death has occurred in our
midst making the second within a week.
This time Mrs Mary Fielding was called
to appear before her Maker. She died
at the advanced age of IS, at her resi-
dence in Maple Grove, on the 10Th inst.
Deceased was one of the first settlers
here, and was highly respected by all
who knew her,
Maple Groves champion wife-beater
is in limbo again. Drunk and disorderly

fourth time he has been locked up with

not be his last.
4 grand fair for the benefit Of the
church in Maple Grove, will commence
next Sunday afternoon, and close on
the Fourth. A picnic will be given on
the last two days. Races will also form
prominent feature of the Fourth. A
prize, valued at $50, will be voted to the
most popular young lady, and an Elgin
watch to the most popular young man.
Every effort viii be made to make the
fair a success. The public generally are
invited to attend.
st. Patrick's Temperance society is to
be revived, and an effort made to obtain
additional members. If the society
wishes to succeed in its praiseworthy
efforts, something besides total absti-
nence must be offered as an Involvement
to gain members. Why not start a
library? 1t would supply a want long
felt in the community.
individuals cannot procure books with
ont great expense, and it is next to i'm.
possible to get them otherwise. Persons
who buy costly books and magazines,
are not often willing to lend them to less
fortunate neighbors. BY forming a IL
brary society, and each contributing a
small amount, larger number of books,
at greatly reduced prices, can be pur-
chased. Members of the library need
not necessarily be members of the tenn
perance society. This congregation
numbers some TWO hundred families.
We viii venture the assertion that one
half of those do not take county paper,
and many DO not take one of any kind.
Owing to this want OF suitable reading
the young folks, as well as the old ere
compelled TO spend their spare time in
idlness, or in reading whatever they can
get-usually, cheap, Indian tales of boy-
der life.

IT was found extremely difficult to find
twelve men, good and true, who knew
nothing of the murder Of Nenahlo. Con-
siderable time was taken in the oxamina-
ton of witnesses. The defense was con
Quoted on the ground that the blow in
flicted on the back Of the head was not
sufficient to cause death. Though Ne
nahlo's skull was fractured in two other
places, the prosecution failed to prove
that the blows producing these fractures
were inflicted in the saloon. It seems
difficult, even with this fact admitted, to
understand how the jury found Marazek
guilty of manslaugter in the third degree
only. OF course those men having heard
all the testimony. are more competent to
measure the degree of guilt than any
outside party. But the opinion Will pre-
vail that Marazok escaped very lightly.
