MEME.

ID. L. Walsh Is about 10 organize
base ball club. We expect to umpire the
game, and to be called on whenever
there is any swift running to be done.
We shall write up the whole con-
Germ as soon as the last survivor of the
"Centennials" gets his forces narshalled.
The.' ARTIST" succeeded in replenishing
his purse while in Meme. His patrons
would rather sing his requiem than show
the valentines he painted.
Louis Kiskoff, the celebrated Indian
physician and herbalist, ss we'll as discov-
erer Of great "panticurial nervous cor
DIAL" has been making his round during
the past week.
Mr.. Schwartzenbart, Of Manitowoc,
came near being seriously injured last
week while driving through Canterville.
He lost his way and droveinto and through
thick swamp, which was next TO impas-
sable. He was thrown from the wagon,
and his head struck some hard substance
which fortunately only tore his hat. lie
was guided out of the swamp and went
on his way rejoicing.
The republicans are 30 confident of
victory that they will not attempt to
make proselytes by granting non-resi-
dent the privilege Of interrogating the
Meme citizens in the taking Of the CEN
sus.
The school in the Danforth district
closed on Friday night with spelling
school.
The reliable insurance company OF
Meme hesitates, we understand, about
paying for the Osman cheese factory,
which was consumed by the devouring
element in the early part Of last fall.
The Danforth brothers have received
the second premium on cheese. from the
International Dairymens' Association,
held in n. Y. They have also received
diploma which furnishes good evidence
of the worth of the cheese manufactured
by this firm.
We learn through the Chronicle that
P. Martens is about to establish himself
in business ct Kellnersville. Mr.. Mar
tens resided in Meme until last fall; and
we take pleasure in introducing him to
the citizens OF Kellnersville.
Some superstitious citizens of Center
vile are endeavoring to make certain
individual believe that ghouls and fiery
tailed monsters are seen issuing from the
chimney of his house. They warn him
of the danger he is in by dwelling in
house where these apparitions are so
numerous; but all the efforts to get the
idea into the Uranium of this strong
minded person seem to be futile. His
visitors are not, like the ghost of Hamlet,
coming for revenge.
There is rumor ahoat that the peda-
gogical debating society Of Manitowoc
which is composed Of persons of legal
proclivities, is contemplating sending
challenge to the amateurs of Meme
Should they carry out their project we
fear that our difidence would be bar
rier between us and acceptance; but as
we have no downfallen reputation to
retrieve we would, in all probability bow
without Indignation to the humiliation
which would inevitably come upon us.
The 18th was duly celebrated in Nee
me. The Temperance Society assembled
in the hall in the morning and marched
in regalia to the church. After services
they assembled again and proceeded to
the election of officers. P. J. Conway,
who has held the Office Of president
since the organization was effected, was
unanimously reelected. He makes an
excellent officer, is thorough gentleman
and one of the most forward members Of
the society. P. McMahon was chosen
V. P; Thomas Hayes, secretary; Peter
Flanagan, marshal; James Sullivan,
librarian, and Christopher Connars was
elected to the dignified position of stand
ard bearer, position which he is well
worthy to hold. After the election of
officers, an elaborate programme, which
was prepared for the occasion, was car
ried out. Speeches were made which
we're no less remarkable for their literary
merit than they were for their patriotism.
A programme was then prepared for the
next meeting to be held in four weeks.
Besides cherishing the virtue of temper
ance, the society is making strenuous
efforts to develop intellectual ability,
and the regular meetings offer excellent
opportunities for improvements, and
Should be participated in by all whether
they be difident pedagogues or school
children.
