we can peer beneath the mask. The
mask IS often fairer tLan the character it
conceals. But at times q rough exterior
hides kind heart. 1t Is not hypocrisy
to wear masks at times. Actions should
not always be in accord with feelings.
1t is often proper that the jest should
keep attention from the bruised heart.
The earth itself wears mask. There is
nothing on its surface to indicate that In
its bosom are jewels and precious stones.
Our Nations Noblemen was subject
discussed by Carl Runge. In America
nobility is not an accident of birth.
Brains and not wealth are honored here.
The men who justly administer the laws,
who labor for the public good and who
are above dishonesty are the noblemen
we honor. Mr.. Runge's delivery is good
but somewhat too ambitions. His voice
is good and clear but his manner is too
uniformly declamatory, a fault, however,
that leads to better things, than the OPP
posite extreme would.
Miss Kern closed the exercises with an
essay on the Glass Motto, The Threshold.
There seemed to be such discrepancy
between the tender age of Miss Kern ard
the maturity OF thought which character
lied her essay, that 1t perhaps leads us
to too favorable judgment of her effort.
In beauty OF expression and yigor of
thought Miss Kern's essay would do
credit to a moro pTetentious graduation.
The class are Just entering upon the
threshold of LIES most important duties
The knowledge CLEANED up to the present
is to be used in the affairs of the future.
There is no person with genius so YER
satiie as to be able to excel in all callings
One should adopt the profession for
which his talents are adapted, and then
place his mark high. Industry is n
substitute for genius, and consequently
genius is attainable by ALL The greatest
geniuses are men who thought while 9th
ers slept. They had a lofty ideal and
they labored to realize it. Between the
idea and the attainment there is vast
interval and the most trivial undertaking
requires some effort. Miss Kern con-
cluded her essay by an appeal to the
class.
The programme was intorspersed with
vocal music the lula Zong being very

THE FINEST YET.

Owing to the unusually brisk demand
for carpets, Mr.. Torrison was compelled
to order another twenty rolls in order to
keep his splendid stock up to its usual
standard of completeness. These car
pets, which have just arrived, were pur-
chased at the old price and will conso-
quently be sold at former figures, which
means ten to twenty per cent. less than
the same quality has sold for since the
decided advance in carpets. Parties in
tending to purchase viii surely find the
largest stock and lowest prices at TORI
ison's, and it behooves them to order
soon. The stock is the finest ever shown
in this city.

COOPERSTOWN.

Mr.. John Nfulquine of Chicago, has
returned once more to the scene of his
childhood. It is nearly four years since
he made his exit from this community,
and Judging from his gentlemanly and
youthful appearance we should say that
he might remain rs long more away, and
not more deserving young man could
come to ask fair maiden TO accompany
him through the paths and bvways of
life.
The school In Dist. No. 2 came to q
rather abrupt termination a few days
since; pupils and patrons were unaware
that the final day was at hand until the
evening of dismissal. The teacher, Mr..
Ericsson, departed for his home, having
accomplished good work, and is now
looking for new fields in which to meas
ure swords with some parsimonious
school officer. There is some talk of
erecting n school house III the above
named district. This is sadly needed as
the present building is nearly dilapidated.
What blessing it is to live in q free
country, and have our town government
so thoroughly democratic! Let the leg
islature make the laws and if they don't
suit we viii repeal them in our own i'm.
mediate localities. The dog law was
rendered null and void at the meeting
recently held
4 larger assemblage convened to lessen
the school fund than ever assembled at
all the school meetings that were held in
the town since its organization.
Mr.. Suhowal of New York, having late
~ purchased the engine and machinery
formerly used in the Clipper City Mill,
has under the course of construction a
mill near the flourishing little village of
Rosecrans. Mr.. Suhowal formerly own
ed a mill in n. Y, but owing to the fact
that he met with a serious loss by fire he
resolved to try his fortune in the millifu-
ous region of the West. He evidently
thinks he has struck on the right place,
and intends to show back-woods millers
what a metropolitan miller can DO in the
way of making flour. We say success to
him; but think that he will have formid-
able rivals to compete with, and he may
yet come to the conclusion that he could
have amplified his future considerably
more had he pitched his tent in some
other locality.
Cooperstown has not made any prepa-
ration this year for the celebration of the
birthday of our republic. But the day
will undoubtedly be observed by some in
the way of keeping from servile labor
and attending the famous institutions
where stimulating beverages are vended.
Those who wish to enjoy themselves in
the Torpsichorean art and listen to pat
riotic utterances. viii have to seek fairer
fields on that memorable day. 1t is
with reluctance we state that our people
manifest such an indifference towards
this day. Want Of spirit and determine
ton on the part of the individuals causes
the day to pass by without the people
having done anything to make them
worthy of their adopted home, which so
many of their countrymen bIed aud toiled
for in revolutionary Gays,

ming of the 18th inst His disease was

THE BEST is THE CHEAPEST.

The announcement that new edition
of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary has
Just been published, containing many
new ana valuable features, suggests the
thought that buying Dictionary is a
good deal ike buying an egg or a watch
a bad one is not cheap st any price.
Webster being the standard authority for
the English language, he naturally has
many imitators, but imitators are usually
held at their true worth by the public;
who wants a wooden nutmeg, though
1t may look ever so much like the gen
uino articles The popularity Of Webster
is based upon this principle.
Ii you want handy thing to carry
with You, a companion that you can al
ways rely upon, and one that VIII never
tire you, a really gade niecuaa, we
recommend that you get copy of the
pocket edition Of Webster, with its 49,
600 words and meanings, rules for spell
ing, tables Of weight and measures, ab-
breyiations, words, phrases and proverbs
from the ancient and modern languages.

A MAD dog k;llod.-A mad dog was
killed near the court house, Tuesday
evening. He came along Calumet street
from the west, snarling and biting vic
iously at every thing that came in his
path. He leaped through the fence OF
the court house square, entered the build
ing through the front door, passed
through the hall and kitchen into the
W Cd shed. The doors were shut upon
him and Fred Miller. Of the Registers Of
fee, dispatched him with shots from a
revolver. 1t is not known whether he
bit any other dogs, but people in that
neighborhood should be careful. He was
a black and tan dog.

THE CIRCUS.

The procession of Coles circus through
the st-eets, WAS much superior to mosa
things of the sort The ''steam piano"
was new feature in the procession, and
its notes resounded through every por-
ton Of the city. The circus performance
was about the standard thing, some won
derfal acrobatic feats were performed.
The acting on the ''fying trapeZe' was
somewhat above the average. The bare
back riding was first class. The scene
with the lions was perhaps the best
thing of the kind ever presented in Man
itowoc; the lion tanner had his pets I'M
der perfect subsection. There was not
q great variety of animals, but some OF
them were of a rare kind and all were
good specimens. There were no thugs
or cutthroats with the circus, strange as it
may seem. In fact the rank and file We're
rather gentlemanly than otherwise.
Tt is said tie sheriff Of Jefferson county
was here yesterday looking over the cir
Gus men in the hope of finding among
them 2 sharper who feeced 4 farmer of
that county to the extent of 5000.
NEXT Monday the Board of Equaliza-
ton meets IN this city. We believe the
assessment made this year is much more
complete than it ever was before. The
J assessor has certainly done al III his pow
er to list all taxable property. Some
omissions may have been made, and
some values incorrectly given. 1t is the
duty Of every property holder to see that
he is not prejudiced by the absence from
the assessment roll of any taxable prop
erty. or by an unfair valuation. See that
! the comparative valuation is correct and
thus give every one his just proportion Of
the public expense. A person who is
conscientious in listing bis entire property
at q fair figure naturally feels indignant
| when Il less scrGpuIous person gains an
advantage by Withholding some of his
from the assessment roll. Watches for
instance is a very common piece Of prop
erty, but fifteen or twenty is the greatest
number heretofore reported in the city.
| 1t is unfair to tax these fifteen or twenty
and allow the multitude who have not
| repcrted, to go scot free.
