On Sunday last there was observed at the
Methodist church in this city what is known
to that denomination as Chlldren's Day"
II seems that some years ago it was ordered
by The preates of the Methodist church that
there should be one day in the year set apart
the second Sunday in June) on which the
little children could come with their offerings
and contribute the same to Sunday school
work and the general education Of the chill
dren of that church. 1t was designed to be
a sort of holiday as we'll, when the children
could bring their flowers and sing their
little songs, and be encouraged in simple,
beautiful way to learn the true lessons of life,
and the better prepare for the great hereafter.
On Saturday evening next there will be
at Kimball Hall 'grand rally of the
friends of justice and the enemies of oppres-
sion" in other words, it is proposed to organ
ize branch Land League" in sympathy
with Irish tenants in their struggle against
the tyranny and oppression of their land
lords. Hon. Thos. A. Moran, a native of
this county, now of Chicago, and one Of the
Judges of the circuit court of Cook county,
will address the meeting, and all may be as
sured the address will be able, to the point,
and exceedingly entertaining. 1t is to be
hoped that all, friend or foe to the cause, will
be present and listen to the learned Judge on
this occasion.
We have had the pleasure of going through
the art gallery of Mr.. Ben Eichelman, and
have met with no better pleasure in long
time. Mr.. Mansfield, of NJ. Bedessem' s
furniture store, has done the carpet laying
and curtain and tapestry work in the best
style. The art gallery itself is well furnish
ed and most handsomely decorated with
paintings, photographs and engravings. A
powerful stereoscope is one of the features of
the gallery. and all the psraphernalia of a
first class art institution are present. Mr..
Eichelman will from this time out keep his gal
lery open every evening for visitors, and
cordially invites any and all to attend and
view his art exhibitions. We can safely say
that all should see this cosy, elaborate and
handsome place, and that they will come
away fully satisfied that it is valuable addi-
ton to our city institutions.
The city has recently carried out scheme
which we have advocated-the putting up a
trough for the use of watering horses in
Market Square, where every horse which
comes to the city can 60 to a convenient place
and get free drink. 1t is want long ex-
listing and we are glad that it is now supplied.
To accomplish this it has become necessary
to take up the old pump, which has done
good service for the general public, and fill
up the we'll. Some twelve years ago, when
Judge I. W. Webster was mayor, he made
every effort to have the common council make
an appropriation for the purpose ofconstruct.
ing what used TO be called " Town Pump,
place where water could be furnished the
multitude at q convenient point. Failing
this, he went around with subscription
paper, and, through his influence and that o.
Hon. F. Robinson and Capt. Chas. Frantz
the well was bored and the pump put dowr
on Market Square. This old we'll, when i
was put down, was about fifty feet deep, ant
was than called an srtesian we'll 1t las nov
given way to well of larger growth, and tn,
public convenience on Market Square will b.
increased in proportion. The North Sid
Water Company have also put up trough a
the corner near Bendt & Hansen's store.
