Double Elastic Steel Pens, and after trying them
feel justified in highly recommending them To
our readers. They are made of the best steel,

and have national reputation for certain quail
ties which no other pens seem 10 have attained
in so great perfection, among which are uniform
evenncss of point, durability, neXibilty and quill
action. 1t is thus quite natural that the Spencer

pcnmen, in business colleges. counting rooms
government offices, public schools, ana largely
throughout the country. Indeed, SO popular
have they become, that Of the Number one -

Our Heroes,

On Monday the posters will be out announcing
the time and approach, June 26th and 9th, of
the play of "Our Heroes" The company is
working with will, and We predict that the play
will be put upon the boards in tirst-class style,
and be one Of the finest military dramas ever
brought out in this city. Beautiful tableaux,
grand patriotic pictures and thrilling situations,
are among its attractions. 1t is ntersperscd with
happy vein of humor by Dutch, Irish. Yankee
and negro cOmicalitics, besides being filled with
many opportunities for fine dramatic aud tragic
acting. The cast of characters embraces some of
our very best talent, and by the way the play is
progressing it cannot fail to be one OF the best
performances ever put upon the stage by ANA
teurs in this city. The boys deserve to be l:bcr.
ally patronzed in their undertaking, and ought
to be able to realize handsome sum towards
d=ossing The company in respectable uniform

On Wednesday, while at Iynch's and about to
start on a picnic to Starved Rock Mrs John
King was suddenly attacked with what appeared
to be cholera morbus, being seized with violent
cramps, purging and vomiting. She was with
difficulty taken to her home in East Ottawa by
Dr. Hard, who proceeded to make her as easy as
possible few minutes after Mr.. Sol King
came to the house and said that Wendell King,
member of Mrs John Kings family. was sick
at his shop, having been taken similarly to Mrs.
King. He was brought home. Some two hours
afterwars Miss Nellie King, another member Of
the family, was taken sick in like manner. The
attacks hadall the appearance of cholera morbus
yet the burning in their stomachs might indicate
an arscnical poison. However DR.. Hard and Mr.
5. E. King thoroughly searched the house and
premises, but were unable to find any loca
cause. 1t may have been simply coincidence
that all should be thus taken sick with cholera
morbus resulting from the eating of berries the
evening bcfore-thc only cause imagined. Mrs.
and Mr.. King are quite easy now, though not
out of bed, but Miss Nellie is still suffering Sc
ycrely from gastric difficulties.

The Mendoza municipal squabble continues in
teresting. At the last meeting of the council the
mayor presented nominations for marshal, su-
pervsor, fire marshal, all of which were rejected
by the council. 1t seems as il the council would
again take the bit and reject any appointment by
the mayor Meantime suits growing out of the
mus OF last year accumulate and the council
refuse to vote necessary funds for street lamps
and the mayor refuses to approve bills of the
councils appo!ntces of last year. The La Sale
jamborce continues with increasing viSor. The
late meeting of the council was one of the most
elegant and heightened affairs we have heard
OF for many day-equal If not superior to
grcenback convention, What they need in both
La Sale and Mendoza is one of Elsworth's 'thuu
derbolts" to abolish mayor and council in both
places.
