The Glass -BJOaUc3'S.

Our citizens have now an opportunity
presented to them of attending an enter
| tainment that is at once instructive,
pleasing wonderful and profitable. By this
we mean the exhibition of glass blowing
that takes place every day and evening
of this week at the store near Main
street bridge, formerly occupied by I. S.
Clark. There is a splendid display to be
seen of the glass work manufactured by
the company, exquisite and beautiful in
taste, design and finish. The glass steam
engine Fairy Queen which is placed in
running order during the hours of exhi-
bition is a marvel to all behOlders and
sight of it is alone well worth the price
of admission. We cannot urge our citi-
zens too strongly to attend this glass blow
ing exhibition, knowing as we do the skill
of the blowers in turning out the several
beautiful articles they manufacture. To
the young people it is especially amusing
and instructive to their minds. The ad
mission price is only Is cents, including
an elegant present. The following from
the Fond du Lac Commonwealth of the
18th inst, gives summary of the exhi-
bition in that city:
The entertainment of Mr.. VIM. Wood
roffe's Bohemian Glass Blowers closes in
this city this evening, having been in
progress for nearly two weeks, during
which time they have wen the good OPP
inion of all who have visited them, given
good satisfaction, and left innumerable
mementoes of their skill in ornaments that
will for long time adorn the homes Of
those receiving them. The room, No
456 Main street, has every day been wei.
filled with both old and young, an
nothing but establishment and delighd
was expressed by all to gee what hand
some things were produced from the plain
tubes of glass used in the process. M
E. S. Hopkins is the principal artist, anr.
his skill is simply marvellous, transformd
ing brittle glass into articles that rival :
beauty the works of Aladdin's lamp in TIM
"Arabian Nights" He is master worke
man in his art Not single murmur O.
dissatisfaction has yet reached us concern-f
ing their entertainments, and this means
that the people are more than pleased
that they made an effort to see them. We
cheerfully recommend them to the people
wherever they may exhibit Their agent,
Mr.. Clarence M. King, is a man whom,
after having become acquainted with
him, we always like to see again. He is
both gentlemanly and entertaining.

ObitaC ira.

Mrs. Jane Vaux, relict of the late
Samuel Vaux, died at her home in the
Third ward last Wednesday evening,
October 18th, 1881, aged SO years. She
had been in failing health for some time
before her decease, suffering at the last a
stroke of paralysis from which she never
rallied. Mrs. Vaux was native of
England, and came to this city over thirty
years ago. She was a woman endeared
to all who bore her acquaintance, low
ing mother, kind neighbor and warm
friend. The deceased leaves two sons to
mourn her death. Her funeral was
held from St. PauPs Episcopal chuxch,
of which she was member, last Sunday
afternoon, Rev, III. Gates, officiating. The
well filled church, Notwithstanding the
inclement weather, testified to the love
and respect felt for the deceased when in
life.

BURR ROBBINS CIRCUs.-Burr Rob-
bins, Notwithstanding the terribly rainy
ordeal Of the several days previous, and
the consequent discouraging appearance
of things, pitched his circus tents yester-
day according to promise and gave per-
formances afternoon and evening. Of
course the bad condition of the roads
prevented many from coming in from the
country, and the canvas under the circum-
stances contained only meagre crowd
in the afternoon. At the evening per-
Torrance there was a better outlook, the
tent being comfortably we'll filled. The
exhibition gave excellenti satisfaction.
The athletes were among the best ever
seen here and the riding, especially that
by the great. Fish, perfectly marvellous.
The animal kingdom was represented by
some fine specimens, all in excellent
condition. Bsr Robbins combination
will bear comparison with the best that
has ever travelled in the country.

The Historical SOcietU.

The Wisconsin State Historical Society,
with it's accumulation of choice and rare
volumes, its large and valuable newspa-
per collections, it's curiosities in the ami
NAL and mineral kingdoms, works of art,
and magnificent portrait gallery, has long
been source of pride to the people of
our state. The collections are increasing
so rapidly that the society cannot find
proper accommodation for them in the
present limited room.s The society
needs new building, large and COM
modious enough to meet its immediate
and future demands, and portion of it
at least should be fre-proof so as to make
the most valuable part of the society,"
collection absolutely safe from the contin
gency of fire. We are convinced that
the legislature would be fully sustained
by the people in voting reasonable ap-
preparation for carrying forward the work
we haye suggested. No expenditure of
money could be put to better use. The
legislature should take action on this
matter the present winter.

One aCTsO soaO Cef3aaU0SJis.

Apropos to the centennial exercises in
connection with the celebration of the
surrender of Corn wallis to Washington
which are being held to-day atty orktown,
Virginia, it may be interesting to know
that we have among our citizens one WHO
saw in his time Lord CORVALLIS, the
English General chat gave up his sword
to the COMMANDMENTS Chief of the Ameri-
can army, October 10Th, 1881. We refer
to Charles Branigan, living with his
daughter, Mrs. Edward Cary, in the Sec
ond ward. Mr.. Branigan distinctly re-
members having seen Lord CORVALLIS
pass through the county Monaghan, Ire
land, in the year 1898, with his "fyin G
camp" as it was then called. Mr.. Brani-
gan is now 81 years old and at that time
was lad of IA, CORVALLIS being 43.
Doubtless among the large number of
people assembled at Yorktown to-day
to participate in celebrating the great
closing event in the history of the Revo-
luton there was not one who had ever
seen CORVALLIS and Mr.. Branigan may
be the only person now living in the
United States who can boast of the privil-
eye.

Boot and Shoe Factory.

The prospect really appears bright for
the establishing of a boot and shoe fac
tory in this city. Every encouragement
should be given to the effort to start up a
business of this kind in our midst. There
is no better point in the state for boot
and shoe mandatory than WATERFOWL.
The goods turned out in an Institution
of this kind are as much of a necessity to
the community at large as -four Boots
and shoes are really among the hecessar-
les of life, and there can he no fears that
there will not be a market for them.
Money invested in the manufacture Of
boots and shoes would be an almost alb
solutely safe financial venture. Several
parties we'll qualified to carry on bust
ness of this kind stand ready to start in
here providing some others will interest
themselves IN assisting to help along the
project. Everything should be done by
our citizens to make this enterprise sue
cess.

The following item from the Sank
News will apply equally well to every
town and every local newspaper: "Many
times people feel offended because their
coming and going are not mentioned while
those of others are, and wonder what the
matter can be. The explanation is, that
editors mean to be impartial, but some
escape attention. The likes or dislikes
OF the editor have nothing to do whatever
with it, and while it is not pretended that
the editor is more or less than human,
he knows that the success Of his journal
depends on fairness and impartiality to
all. 1t is the best way always when a
notice is desired, to mention it to the
editor or his assistant, or communicate it
through the postofice. No one feels
worse about any seeming neglect or par
tial performance of duty than the editor
himself.

Il Serious Loss.

The walls of Chappell's block at Eau
Claire, in which was situated the office of
the Eau Claire Free Press, the newspa-
per j. H. Reyes, the former proprietor of
this paper, is now connected with, fell in
last Wednesday afternoon, involving loss
on type, presses and material to the Free
Press Office to the amount of about$2, 500.
The building stands on the bank of the
of the Chippewa river and undoubtedly
the action Of the water, which is at pres
ent very high, undermined the foundation
causing the walls to fall. The building,
which is owned by brother of G. W.
Chappell, our former resident, is damaged
it is stated to the amount of $4,000. G.
w. Chappell occupied store in the
block, but his stock escaped without any
injury. The Free Press office has been
removed to another building. We I'M

not interrupted by the disaster, the daily
issue making its regular appearance, but
in smaller form. Considerable sympa-
thy is felt here for Mr.. Reyes in his mis-
fortune on the threshold of his business
venture, but as it is known that he is not
made of the stuff that gives up in despair,
it is hoped and believed that he will soon
overcome all obstacles and have his es-

THE HEAVY RAINs.-This section has
Just passed through one of the longest
extended and heaviest rainfalls ever
known here Sunshine and clear clouds
broke in upon us yesterday for the first
time in about a week Farmers are
greatly impeded in their fall work by the
rains. Ploughing is about impossible on
most land and much of it is yet to be
done. Potatoes cannot be dug and corn
husking has had to be abandoned. We hear
of considerable low lands being flooded
preventing cattle from feeding upon
them and much hay is either destroyed
or cannot be reached on account of high
water. The prospect ahead for fodder is
such that some farmers are disposing of
their stock rather than run the riskof
feeding through the winter. It is re-
ported that corn yet unhusked An the
fields is growing and clover seed injured
by sprouting. The roads in every direc-
ton are almost impossible atpresent for
teams, rendering wood and all kinds of
farm produce scarce. Under the circum-
stances business is dull in town.
