LOGAN and his loyal henchmen who con-
structed the infamous gerrymander which
was expected to defeat the will of the peo-
pie.
The rustic scenery which was one OF the
most important and attractive features at the
Greenaway concert Friday, night was the
work of Misses Maud Rittehouse and Edith
Martin. The design was good, but the exc
cution better. The young ladies proved
themselves to be embryo artists Of consider
able talent. At least such was the verdict of
good Judges in the audience, and we be
leve they were right.
Mr.. c. N. Hughes, chairman of the
congressional Republican central commit
tee, informs us that Hon. Richard Oglesby

tober 4th; Cairo, October 9th; Vienna, DC.
tober 9th and Metropolis, October 9TH. Mr..

Mr. b, McManus is furnishing his new
house at the corner of Fourteenth street
and Commercial avenue with counters and
shelving, preparatory to moving his stock
of dry goods and clothing out of his ad-
joining building into this. When all is
ready for the transfer, he will get large
new stock of dry goods and clothing in
order to fill his new house up from front
to rear and from top to bottom, and will
stock the old building now occupied with
the dry goods, with large assortment of
groceries, etc. The change will probably
be effected within the next few weeks.
Another train load of gravel, ten car
loads, came in on the Wabash road yester
day afternoon and were scattered along the
track where it was most needed. The com.
pany seems to be disposed to do the right
thing in the matter of keeping its track in
good condition. Nothing will more efec-
tualy disarm those who clamor for the
roads removal from Commercial avenue,
than a studious compliance with all rea-
sonable orders from the city council and a
constant, watchfull care tina, the tracks are
10 good condition and the streets
not INSTRUCTED anywhere along
the avenue. If the company will do this
land it seems to be disposed toy, nearly all,
if not all. clamor for its removal will cease
Deputy Sheriff Guy Morse, with several
assistants, went to Eco in this county yes
terday to bring down for confinement in
the county Jail here, a DR.. Milan
who IS said to be suffering with
mental arrangement to violent degree.
He is president of Elco, and several weeks
ago he officiated at the wedding of young
couple without authority from either state
or church to do so. About week ago he
was notified by the proper officers of the
law to appear at this term ofthe circuit court
and show cause why he should not be pun
ished for this unlawfully action, and since
receiving this notice be began gradually
to lose his mind Itseems that threatened
punishment SO preycd upon his mind that
arrangement was the result. He will be
brought before the circuit court, but prob
v ably not be tried upon the charge original
Iyhreferred against him.
