and beyond a few picnic parties at the
lakes and groves, no demonstrations were
made Some pc. haps feel just as well, new
that it is over, as if they had had celebra-
tion-but We'll be hanged if others do.
ACADEMIA young man namrd John
Cornell, of Donnelly, while assisting in
celebrating the Fourth had the misfortune
to severely injure one of his hands. He
was helping to fire the anvils, and in so do
ing, while touching the train Of powder
the charge prematurely exploded and the
iron rings between the anvils few out with
force sufficient to badly lacerate one of his
hands. A hand Car came down for ply
stefan, and DR.. Sutherland went and dressed
the wound.
| The Morris club was beaten at Glenwood
by score of IL to a. Considering that
only five of the first nine were present and
played, the game was good one. George
Whitley took Jack Morris place behind
the bat, and although ii was the first time
he ever played in that position he did well.
Egan, Hclgeson and Corliss could not get
away so their places were filled from the
second nine. We hope to see the Glen
wood boys over here soon and would like
to see series of games say best three III
five.
An effort is to be made to have some
thing done towards having new school
house 1t is q fact known to every person
in this school district that the present build
ing does not furnish adequate accommoda-
tons To have to argue this point is very
singular, to say the least, for every one
who has lived in the village for the past
three years, must see. that the immense and
unprecedented immigration to this village
and county, during that period, added so
largely to the number of scholars TO be fur
nished with accommodations, that the
building that was then amply large is now
utterly inadequate.
Justice Harris has rendered his resigna-
ton but no action has as yet been taken Oh
it, Mr. Harris has by his frmness and inn
partially in administering justice, greatly
benefited the town, and we doubt not but
that every resident of the village will hear
with regret, his determination to resign
1t appears that in certain cases which were
tried before him his fees should have been
paid by the county, but for some cause OF
reason the county commissioners did not
see fit to pay him, until suit had beer
commenced against them, and rs Mr.. Har
ris thought be was entitled to what he hat
earned without mourning unnecessary ex
pense and delay in procuring it, he conclu
ded to decline to longer serve.
Our readers will be glad to hear tina
"Dick Ogelsby's Trubardours" will be il
Morris on the 18th, next Saturday. Thi
troupe has already visited this place, ant
those who were here one year ago and wit
messed the performance will look forward
with pleasure 10 their temperance. TIL
company, thirteen in number, will Civ
! one of their first-class entertainments ant
as the public always enjoy and never tir
: of good "bell ringing" excellent vocal ant
p instrumental music, we anticipate seeing
large audience. Dick is in himself capa
Bile of giving whole entertainment. Mi
Burton Stanley, the wonderful male SC
prano is with the company; speaking o
' him the New York Herald says:
Males very seldom succeed in aping til
# manners and customs of the gentler sex
|. but this goung gentleman does it, and doe
y it with such fidelity as to create genuin
a sensation. He has been favored by natur
with personnel we'll adapted for the pull
a pose; bright, sparkling eyes, regular fea
: ures, good complexion. His voice
% clear and sunny, like his face, and is unde
T. admirable control. In harmony of color
beauty of design and chaste delicacy c
taste, Mr.. Stanley's outfit by far excels an
l" female habiliments we have ever seen fl
E. ted to a female form. The character q
e the impersonations he gives is wholly III
, Objectionable and entirely free from til
too frequent faint of indelicacy or rud
IS ness.
