JUNE 20.-On Friday night, or Saturday
morning last, the 18th inst, a fearful thun'
der storm ragged with violent winds.
Houses shook, shade trees were broken and
one family spent the night in the cellar,
fearing a cyclone. Stillman Ayers had d
valuable horse killed by tightening about 8
mile west of Glenwood. A young man
recently married, having built a barn. SOLD
it. While moving it was attached fol
debt. He could not spirit it away as he
did horse that was about to be seized up
OIL by the same parties. This is a slippery
world. . .Glenw God is bound to go aheat

papers, but STREETS are being graded ant

fasten chain around an M. G. and then

time was enjoyed in spite of the i'll feeling
caused by opposition. There is deplo-

thoroughly enjoyable entertainments can
be given. "A Union Sunday school has

WASHINGTON, June 20, 1881.
MIR. EDIToR:-The farmers in the west
know what "middlemen" are, and they
will he surprised to learn that there is such
class in this city. The ''middlemen"
here do not, as regards food, stand between
the producer and the consumer, but if there
are parties who desire bill put through
congress, they learn somehow through
some source that if they can enlist the aid
of Mr.. SO and so, they Can without doubt
get their bill through. 1t is true it will
cost something as that class do not work
gratuitously, but it is better to pay some
money and get a bill passed speedily than
to wait months, perhaps years for it to pass.
A young lady desires a situation in the de-
partments-she hasn't any political influ-

are obtained for consideration, and no.

This, however, is small offer, and l
doubt whether she got into office; the price,
usually, is 5000. These are the kind of
middle men" that infcst this city, q unique
class that can be found no where else
This class, however, is not confined to
| men, there are women engaged in the bust
ness and it is said they are more successful
than men in obtaining positions. An in
| vestigation in Office selling, recently,
brought out the fact that one woman en-
gagged in the business made the past year
more than $4,000. Not many months ago
at the theater in this city one evening a
| high official left an orchestra chair and
soon after was seen in the dress circle-the
floor above-in conversation with richly
dressed lady. Perhaps he was not aware
of it, but she was lobbyist distinguished
for her success in that line. This lady has
the entree to the best society in the city,
and while she holds it she will have bust
ness. There is another class which might
well be termed strikers ready to take
advantage of anything that may turn up.
