"THE CYCLOPEDIA WAR. "

The Cyclopedia War and the Literary Rev
olution are working wonderful and happy
results for the readers of books, and search
ers after knowledge. The great Library of
Universal knowledge" is announced to be
completed, ready for delivery to purchasers,
the early part Of July. 1t is probably che
largest and most important literary work this
country and the century have seen. 1t is
based upon Chambers's Encyclopedia, the
last London edition of which is reprinted en-
tire as portion of its contents, large corps
OF American editors and writers adding
thereto, vast amount of information upon
about $1,000 subjects in every department of
human knowledge. ChamberS'S Encyclope-
dla, whose distinguished merit is universally
known, IS the laborious product of the r;pest
British and European scholarship, but being
work of foreign production it has been nat.
urally deficient in its adaptation to the wants
OF American readers. In this new form it is
mott thoroughly Americanized, and becomes
at once the largest and most complete encv-
clopedla IN the field, at mere fraction of
the cost of any similar works which have
preceded II, containing about 10 per cent.
more matter than Appleton's Encyclopedia.
at less than one-fifth its cost, and 20 per
cent. more than Johnson's Cyclopedia at a
little more than one-fourth its cost.
The Superlative value and Importance of
this great Encyclopedia, however, lies espec-
tally IN the fact that ii is brought within the
reach of every one who aspires after knowl-
edge and culture. 1t is reQlly library of
universal knowledge. 1t brings liberal ed
ucatlon easily within the reach of every plow-
boy. Every farmer and every mechanic owes
It to himself and TO his children that such a
cyclopedia shall hencefoward form a part of
the outht OF his home. To the intelligent
man in every walk of life Cyclopedia is in
dlSpensable. 1t is issued in various STYLES in
IS large beautiful octave volumes, VARYING in
price from SIS for fhe edition in cloth, to s2s
for the edition in full library sheep binding
Liberal discounts even from these extraordi
nary prices are allowed to clubs, and the
publishers, besides, propose during the next
two months to distribute $4,000 cash in
special rewards to persons who forward clubs
OF i've, ten, or more subscribers. The Amer.
lcan Book Exchange, 764 Broadway, New
York, are the publishers, who viii send sam
pie pages and full particulars free on reque st.

A NEW time table for the railroad will
go into force next week. 1t will only
change the time of a couple of freight
and the Two Rivers trains. If change
can be made on the Two Rivers train,
let it be done for the sake of deceived
humanity. The train is down on the
time card to leave for Two Rivers at
Ills, but itreally doesn't leave until 1890
1t is worse than a circus. 1t is the most
aggravating train on Gods earth, and is
a shame and scandal to the railroad
company. Every passenger on that train
learns the art of profanity. 1t would
make Beecher swear and would make
Sam Tilden hop around with indignation
as lively as cricket. Three times we
have been forced to wait on each trip
one hour and half beyond the schedule
time. Once we thought we would allow
them half an hour grace and found that
the train started that day On time-the
only instance on record. The Two Riv-
ers division should be given to Saniford
II should be turned into wagon road
and managed by team of mules. The
person who prepared the last time card
for the Two Rivers division and gave the
boys % minutes in which to do two hours
work, should be sent as senator from
New York.

The decision of the supreme court of
this state on an appeal from Rock coun-
ty, on the payment by the county to the
state of fines collected, is attracting con-
siderable attention. 1t is estimated that
a compliance with the law will bring into
the treasury from the several counties
sum equal to one half million dollars.
Mr.. DAIMLER informs us that this county
will be called upon to pay about $1,000
IN fines collected during his administra-
ton and Quirin Ewen's. The Attorney
General is making out schedule of the
amounts due the state, preparatory to
making a demand for payment.

There was quite 6. heavy frost last

The Temperance Society are making
preparations for great celebration on

c. O'Connor raised the frame of a large

The corn crop of this locality is very

The authorities of Liberty are build
ing a bridge over the Pine river where
that stream crosses the Green Bay road.
The bridge will be substantial structure
with stone abutments. Jim Stewart is
the contractor, which fact is sufficient
evidence that it will be completed in a
workmanlke manner.
There are several promising fields of
winter wheat and rye in this neighbor-
hood, but generally speaking the species
of crops mentioned are exceedingly slim.
A large flock of sheep belonging to
Denis Hayes were lately killed by dogs.
The owners of the dogs paid for the
sheep, while the poor dogs themselves
suffered the extreme penalty of the law,
being hustled out of this world, disgrace
ed, unhonorad and unsung.
The cheese business is growing some
what unpopular, the prices having .'tum-
bled" considerably of late. The last
sales realized but cents per pound for
the best article manufactured. This is
equivalent to about 55c per hundred or
about one cent per quart, for milk.
The town board of review will meet on
Monday next. 1t is confidently expected
that even. handed justice will be melted to
all parties interested.

THE circus last Friday drew the usual
crowds. A circus never grows old al .
though the acting of the ''artists" and
the jokes of the clown have grown almost
dismal from repetition. Still circus
draws. The large posters so literally
distributed throughout the country, rep
resenting SO much that is curious and
wonderful, gives rise to a species of ex-
element approaching frenzy which can
not be allayed until people satisfy them
selves that great many things are seen
upon the bills which do not appear upon
the boards.
The procession was the usual thing.
Chariots, horsemen with caparisoned
steeds, tigers which deserve chastisement
for not devouring the idiot who gives
them such an elegant opportunity, ele-
plants, Shetland ponies al a,afnit,tn1,
the calliope, and beautiful woman
that would tempt no one from bachelor
hood. The horses were fine specimens
and the elephants were quite large and
numerous. The procession was quite
lengthy and produced the usual amount
of feverish excitement.
The menagerie was fair. From the
fact that Forepaugh wanted to dispose of
FIVE cent. books descriptive of the ami
mails, their names did not appear onlthe
cages. The nickel catalogue was hardly
an assistance but the great Snowman
made the thing pay.
The circus performance was the old,
old story. The velocipede riding was
excellent, and about the only new fea-
ture. The clowns were Dromios when
compared with clowns of every other
circus. The shooting from the cannon
did not take place at the afternoon per
Torrance, but did at the evening. There
were other omissions, and the omissions
constituted the best part of the perfor-
nance as the pavilion was extremely
warm and lily ventilated.
