Our friends in neghboring cities are very
much exercised because Ottawa boys didn't go
to the Chicago encampment and fear court
martial OF the whole company, You may spare
your fears gents, our noble Colonel, who orders
troops to reverse arms with fixed bayoncts, has
still sense enough to let out the court-martial
business. Co. DIS officers are old enough sol
diers to know the difference between voluntary
service and orders from the coNmauder-in-chief
however they may be tortured by a battalion col
onel anxious to display his horsemanshp and
brass buttons on a Chicago boulevard.

THE SCHwoPEs.-The picnic Of the Suabians OF
this county in Hoes's Grove on Thursday, for
which such elaborate preparations had been
made was well attended, but on account Of the
sudden death of Mr.. Haberle, one Of the most &C.
tive originators and promoters, it was more like
a funeral than gay festival. Indeed the whole
programme that had been arranged for the oc-
casion was abandoned and the participants par
took of their refreshments rather in sombre d.
lence than as they had come to do, in joyous hill
arlty. The procession was organized at O'Clock
P. N. in front Of Martin Keim's restaurant, and,
headed by band, marched to the Grove. There
Mr.. A. H. strobel introduced Mr.. Hornung, who
had been selected for president of the day. He
delivered short address, the chief point OF

The alarm Of fire on Sunday evening and the
lurid glare that illuminated the southern sky
at about O'Clock. was caused by the burning of
the barn Of Mr. Luellen, an the gravel road just
beyond Covel Creek. 1t was large frame barn
56x64 feet, nearly new, and SO built as to be one
of the most conveniently arranged barns in the
county. 1t contained at the time about 80 tons
of hay, $50 bushels of threshed and 400 bushels
Of unthreshed oats half dozen hogs and a
large number Of chickens, all Of which were
consumed together with every stitch OF harness
about the place, and other articles. The loss is
not less than $500, of which $3.50 are covered
by insurance. Fortunately Mr.. Luellen's horses,
Of which he has some valuable ones, were safely
got out, and his cattle were in the pasture at the
time. How the fire originated is a mystery, and
suspicion, rests as usual, on the unhappy tramp
as the incendary.
Mr.. Luellen, from whom we obtained most
Of the above facts, desires us in this connection
to return his thanks to his neighbors for turning
out and laboring earnestly and effectively in
saving his dwelling, outhouses, &c, from des-
truction.
