land. Jack and Gill, . by Nathan
Smith and Lenorc Mennett. as a
negro, Berton Menette did admirably,
and as an old Bachelor why he ranks
high. Jack Sprat and his wife licked
the platter as clean as though it had
been washed Ida Cleveland did
spleadid; she acted out an old woman
to perfection. Music by his Ida
Edwards and Miss Emma Zenier, was
very good. The gymnastics by teach
er and pupils was ahead Of anything
I ever saw. Miss Smith was a famous
Mother Goose. Her entertainment
was grand. Miss Smith is a highly
educated young lady Of excellent parts,
is esteemed by all who know her, and
as 6 teacher she ranks second to none
in the county. May success attend

Omen Temple. The open lem

Church next Sunday evening. A
very able temperance man viii address
the people. Don't fail to hear him.
DETERMINATIONS We give
: few Of the many comments Of the
press upon the Hayden deviltry, this
week. 1t viii be seen that the press
have very just conception Of tho
make up Of the Judicial libertine Of
Wood County.
Waupaca County isn't alone in her.
great grief. Judge Hayden, of Wood
County, has stopped to folly and found
too late there's TO pay. HAYDEN
was the Greenback candidate for At
torney General two years since. and
greenback candidate for circuit judge
at the last judicial election. 1t
doesn't pay to put these infationistic
theories into practice. -Nea0 London
Times.
This is bad year for County
Judges. From long communication
published in the Wood County Re
PORTER of last week. we infer that
the County Judge of Wood county
has either been following the example
set by the illQstrious Beeoher, or he is
being slandered by some evil minded
person.-Taylor County Star.
We also assure the Star that Mr..
Hayden is not being slandered. He
is reaping the reward that always fol-
lows a life of-infamy.
Bro. Philleo of the Wood Co. Re
porter, has at last struck vein upon
which he can thoroughly abuse his
dear bosom friend %. the county
Judge of Wood county, the Hon. CD
Henry Hayden, and he is doing the
work up in good artistic style. Give
I'm ell say we.-PhjlIips Times.
We assure the Times we have no
disposition to abuse even the filthy,
hypocritical, leoherous guardian of the
widows and orphans Of Wood County
We only want TO show him up in his
true character.
This we clip from the Waupaca Re
Du5hcan. We don't know that it IS
worth while for any county judge
to compete with or Judicial Durham.
Our bull wears the blue ribbon.
That Wood County matter has been
aired. 1t is worse aud not worse, than
the Waupaca county case. There as
here the principal actor is the County
Judge That case is worse than this
because the county judge of Wood
has been supposed to be respectable
man. He is married man, has q
most estimable wife, and has been rec.
cognized as a man Of principle. He
had good standing in society, and
has been candidate for circuit judge.
His name is HENRY HAYDEN. His
crime is the same as that Of which
the county judge of Waupaca
county is guilty; but HAYDEN entered
the family Of one Of the most respect
ed citizens of Centralia and destroyed
its peace 10y running the wife and moth
er He did this instead of going tt
The poor house and taking a friend!es
weak-minded, unkempt county Taoper.
The cases are parallels, but the lines
are wide apart. HAYDEN committed
greater crime against society, while
! his neighbor did against decency
There ought to be some quick sure
way to relieve the Offices Of county
judge OF Wood and Waupacca Of theil
present occupants.

Gotft Bad.

II, children, you take away all the
viscera, that is the lungs and liver anu
things, from Tic cavity OF the trunk of
your body, and rub your fingers up
and down the back Of this cavity, you
wilt find bone column, corrugated like
a dashboard, reaching from the neck
to the legs Tits made of little fat,
round pieces Of bone, like so many
bungs piled on top Of each other, only
these bungs Of bone are very rough
Jagged at the edge, Each of thess
bungs is what your doctor call verte-
brae. Now, all these yertabrae form
together 4 solid pillar that gives sup.
port to the trunk. Al the back of
this column is sharp kind of an edge
like, formed by wha6 are called the
spine$, that IS, the uneven tips of the
arches of the vertebrae, you can feel !
them on your own back. Then there
is hollow ring in each vertebrate, that
is, called the arch, and all these hol-
low rings or arches make the spinal
canal, So then, all these things, the
bodies, and arches and 2pi.nes, that
make up each vertebrae, and all that
vertebrate together make what your
family physician calls the ''vertebrae
column, and what all the rest of us
call the backbone. " Well that is
what is the matter with President
Hayes, just now. He has it. Has it
the worst way Hawheye.

The Editors had live time at Green
Bay, and we knew they would have,
nevertheless we couldn't attend And
then just because we deputized our
locale, Signor Otto Schultz to repre-
sent the Reporter at the convention of
Editors, that suspicious Atlas Kimball
who sustains the Globe upon his Edi-
torial shoulders must needs shy rock
at Otto. Just hear it whiz:
People who know Otto Schultz will
be surprised to learn that he attended
the convention and presented creden-
tials as an editor, from the Grand
Rapids Reporter. We have known
Otto ever since-well we knew him
when his pants and coat were lone
and inseparable' and buttoned behind !;
and we Il take our oath that he ain t
an editor, any more than the fellow
who read proof for the Globe during
cur absence (Shades of Franklin !
such proof reading!) We heard Otto
telling one of the editors that he had
been at the case for number Of years,
he meant the prescriptien-ca =
and the day he left for home he took
to pains to tell around that he was
about to return to his (s)quills.
Otto, We again deputize you to go
to Green Bay and whip that young
rascal

State Republican Convention
The State Republican Central Com
mittee has called the convention foe
the nomination Of state officers, to be
held at Madison on the 23d Of July.
We have no desire tc criticise the ac-
tion Of the committee in calling tie
convention at so early a day. The
principles Of the Republican party are
SO thoroughly known, and are so close
" allied to all that.is progressive that
it would seem unnecessary to herold its
platform of principles for period Of
seventeen weeks. thus provoking bick-
erings and useless discussion with its
Political antagonists The fact that

Mrs. Vaughan and Miss MosheT
were re-hired at S45 per month, and
Misses Dougherty and Kern=at $50 per
month. The sum of S28 was vot-
ed for Chambers Encyclopedias, and
one copy of Websters Unabridged
Dictionary. Other business Of minor
Importance was transacted.
It was voted to reopen the school
for the fall term Monday Sept. Is.
It will be seen that the board is run
ming the school on smaller sum than
has been expended for several years
past. and for 135 dollars less than last
year, with corps Of teachers whose
ability is unquestioned. We predict
the coming school year will be more
profitable to the pupils than any pie
vious year. Hiss Kern comes highly
recommended. OF the other teachers,
the public are already acquainted with
their ability as educators; reeom-
mendation which warranted the board
in the action taken.

A VISITOR.


Personal Stolz aud Frost
of Chicago and Minneapolis, are to
commence a course Of lectures ON next
Monday evening, July 9TH. and are to
continue all of next week. The Drs.
are highly spoken of by the press Of
Minnesota and Northern Wisconsin.
Each day the Hall will be open free to
any that wish to see their extensive
and eIc CANT cabinet of anatomical spec
linens and character pictures. Each
lecture is finely Illustrated by sepe-
rate set Of drawing and painting and
will be not only amusing but entertain
ing and instructive Go and see them.
Writers Hall, Grand Rapids
Wis.-Leoture Course on Health
and Disease. To the People an tie
coasnfy.-Dr. Stolz of Chicago and DR..
Frcst. Of Minneapolis, have closed
contracts to begin a course Of lectures
on the human system here on Monday
night, July It'll, and continue each
night during the week. These Doc
tors are widely known as the most sue
cessful physicians in the treatment Of
old and long standing diseases. The
lectures will be on the Human Blood,
on the Muscles, On Strength and Beau
ty, the Stomach, on the Brain and
Nerves, and the Eye and Ear, on the
use Of Electricity in the cure of dis,
ease. Bath, Turkish Bath, and the
"OJd Way and the Ne;0 Way."
There will also be on exhibition one
of the finest Cabinets of Drawings and
Preparation of the Human System
west of New York city Skulls, Sheg-
IONS, preserved subject of South AT
rican Negro. Embalmed child and
many other curious and very interest
ing materials; The Eye, Ear, Skin,
Throat, Lungs, Heart over fifty life
size figures. and over 400 Faces of ce-
lebrities, both Ancient and Modern.
People, in the country bring wagon
loads to these lectures. The opening
two lectures are free to ladies and gen
tlemen.
TO THE SICK,
we would say that many
forms Of Nervous diseases, Rheuma-
tism, Catarrh, Lungs, Heart, Stom-
ach, are cured by the Doctors Nesg
Electro Turkish Bath. When medi-
cine alone has failed, electricity when
used in connection with hot air in
bath constructed for this purpose will
give almost immediate relief. This
bath brings the eliot Springs of Ar
kansas" to your OWE door. and the
facts are that many severe cases have
been cured by this method, when she
Hos Springs have failed, as in the case
of Mrs. E. 4. Fowler of Chicago, who
spent six months at the Hot Springs
with but little benefit. This bath
cured her in six weeks Of a dangerous
gouty-Rheumatism. Now whatever
may be your disease, call and see the
Doctor. and it viii cost you nothing
for consultation. Office during the
coming week will be in the Roche
House Parlors. Patients should call
early IN the week. and make arrange
lnents.
