road virtually holds its meetings in y

The GRANTING OF CHARTERS.
Churches, societies and religious and
charitable associations seeking incor-
poration, as well as those Interested in
the opening of new roads, would save
many dollar to the State by being
guided by the suggestions embraced
within the following report made by
tho Senate Judiciary Committee: "In
the opinion of the committee, Clerks
Of the Court have full power and au-
thority to grant charters for churches,
cemeteries, fire and hook and ladder
companies, Free Masons, ODD Fellows
and knights Of Pythias lodges, charjt-
ablo and religious institutions or go
cicties, labor, agricultural, manufactur-
ing, industrial, or other like societies
and companies, and in their opinion
the Legislature would save a great
deal'of time and expense by remitting
the granting Of charters for such So
cictics and companies to the Clerks of
the Court, and they recommend that
such action be tnken by the Senate.
They also report that, in their opinion,
the various Boards of County CoYmis-
sioners have full power and authority
within the bounds Of their counties to
open new and repair old roads, and
that Legislative action need not bc in
voked in the premises, except when
it is necessary to authorize two Boards
of adjoining counties to build bridge
across the line, or open road which
runs from one to tho other county"

The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1880-11-13

John Mackay, the mining millionaire, has
in his employ at Carson, New, an expert
named Maurice Hoeiiich, who offers to back
his opinions by betting This annoys Mackay,
who does not like to be disputed and is fur.
Their iretted by the fact that lloctllch usually
proves to be in the right One day Hoeilich
was playing with an enormous grasshopper
1t could jump over twenty feet and he said
"Ill pet you fifty dollars, Mr.. Mackay, dot
you can't find a hopper to peat him" The
rest Of the story, as told by the appeal, Is as
follows: Mackay sent a trusted emissary
down to Carson Valley to secure a contestant.
The man spent nearly week catching hop
pers, and reported that the best gait any of
them had was seventeen feet lie doubted if
a bigger jumper could be secured. The next
day he arrived with about a dozen hoppers,
and Mackay gave them quarters in his room
rs Vanderbilt would stable his stud. Each
had u cigar box to himself, and every morning
they were taken out and put through their
PAGES. 1t was impossible, however, to get
one to jump over eighteen feet. Mackay was
IN despair, but one morning hopper smiled
at bottle of ammonia on the table, and I'M,
medlaey jumped thirty feet. Next day
Mackay announced to Hoenich tina! he was
ready for the match. The expert came an
hour before the time with his pet hopper.
Not finding Mackay IN, he noticed the Dottle
of ammonia A light broke upon him.
Grabbing the bottle, he rushed to drug
store, threw away the ammonia, and ordered
it filled with Chloroform. Mackay soon ar
rived with halt dozen mining superinten-
dents whom he had invited 10 sec him have
some fun with IIoetich. They were hardly
seated when Hoeflich came in with the hopper
in cigar box under his arm. 81 vas leetle
late, Mr. MackGy, but Pm here mid der hopper
and der coin" He laid down the money,
which was covered promptly. Mackay got
behind somebody and let his hopper sniff at
the ammonia bottle, which held Hoetlichs
chloroform. Time beng called, the hoppers
were placed side by side on the piazza, and at
the word $50" each was touched on the back
with straw lIoetich', entry scored twenty
four feet. Mackay's gave "a lazy lurch of some
four inches, and, folding its legs, fell fast
asleep

very large and attractive exhibition of fat
cattle, hogs, sheep and poultry. This county

bred Shorthorn steers of great excellence,
which, with the large exhibit of fat sheep by
Geo. Pickrell, of Wheatfeld will ensure San.

Mr.. Pickrell was the fortunate recipient OF
the grand challenge plate last year for the
best show in the sheep class, and all who have
seen the sheep fitted up for the 1880 show pro.
nounce them a better lot than shewn IN 1879
Kentucky will have some cattle ut the show
