PROMINENT DELLEyUEITES.
They Visit HALEY Often as If on the
Lookout for a Place.

Tom Murphy, Peter Caravan, Major
O'Ruick, and several other distin-
guished citizens of Bellevue, are in
town. There is to be a scattering
soon at the only Incorporated town on
Wood River, as the men of force and
nerve who tried to build town five
miles below Haley have lost their nip.
They are packing their grip-sacks to
journey onward to other prosperous
localities, including Salt Lake and
Haley.
1t is stated that Mrs. Gallagher, of
Bellevue, who is we'll and favorably
known on the river, and who owns a
restaurant in the lower town, has
offered $500 per month rent for the
new Haley Hotel, and offered to put
in $4,000 worth of fine furniture as a
starter, as soon as the lease is made to
her. Bellevue has only one first class
restaurant new, and this one may be
closed shortly.

Purity and STRENGTH.

Shakespeare says: "'lis better to
bear the ills we have than fly to others
we knew not Of But when a man
is suffering from the exquisite torture
of rheumatism, or Neuralgia, or
Gout, he doesn't feel like flying, to
any great extent. In such a case it
isn't necessary for him to "bear the
ills" he has, when he can secure i'm
mediate relief by using Salicylica,
which possesses purity and strength
two elements most essential to per-
feet cure.

VOICE FROM SMOKY,
Winch Complains Of the Laxity Of Our
Former JurieS.

The following letter was received
early this month; but as the County
Jail was crowded with prisoners
about to be tried, we abstained from
publishing it at the time. Now that
the trials are over, and the cases 81
none of the accused can be prejudiced
it is published. In justice to the re-
firing petty jury, it should be stated
that they did their duty nobly, every
prisoner against whom a case was
made out having been convicted
The letter is as follows:
To THE EDITOR OF THE TIMEs.-
At the time that the first court was
held on Wood River, in 1881, yor
made mention of the trial and con.
viction of one Chambers, and compli
mented the jury in the case. Or
looking over the calendar since then
| find that you had a just cause to say
that that jury ought to be remembered
by all good men for all time to come
Oh, God, have mercy on all the
juries since-both grand and trial
Also, on ex-District Attorney Ruick
and the present one, Mr.. Bruner!
Now, that justice should be equally
divided, let there be no more convic.
tons at this court, and let us petition
the Governor to pardon all who have
been convicted on Wood River. lie,
US abolish all the courts, and let there
be no more regulators Of justice bu,

in the county will say amen!

that Sell Their Ore to the ketchum
Works.

The Maytlower Company has at last
succumbed to the logic Of events, and
is now shipping its ore to the Phila-
delphia Company's furnaces at
ketchum. During the past three
weeks it has not shipped pound to
Omaha, and has shipped to ketchum
instead. AS Superintendent Havens
has been the most pronounced antago-
mist Of the ketchum works, it is evil
dent that change has 'come DER the
spirit of his dreams," and that change
must have been caused by the fact
that he gets better figures than he can
get in Omaha.

grated to Wilson county in this
State when quite small. He came
to this county in 1888 and settled al
the place where he died, establish
ing the ferry still i'm operation at
that point. He was rather wild

spected, 5ll Nv ii AG4

ago he made profession of relig-
ion, and since that time had led the
life. of a conscientious Christian.

Miss LOCKE BRONSON, daughter
of Capt. Isaac Bronson, near this
city, was 50 unfortunate as to have
her arm broken last Tuesday after
noon. She had been to the Cave
with some members of her family.

carriage fell and caused it to turn
over. In attempting to jump from
the vehicle, Miss Locke met with

Next Sabbath closes this years
services of Rev. Il. J. Duncan al
the Methodist church, in our city,
and this being his fourth year, he
cannot, under the rules of the

We are sorry to give him up. He
is an excellent man, earnest, zeal
Gus and true, and of indomitable
energy, and is exceedingly popular,
not only in his own church, but
throughout the entire community.
He has fought fearlessly for his con-
victions and advocated them I'M
compromisingly, but with his frank
ness and consistency has left no UNI
Kind feelings to rankle after his bat
ties were over. ID
We hope that the General Con-
ference which meets at ShelbyVille
next week will not take him from
us, but will give him something to
do which will permit him to still
remain in our midst.

The subject of this brief sketch came from
England to the United States when quite a
young man, and removed from Pennsylva-
mia to our city, as the writer thinks, about
twenty-five years ago, where he has resided
until his death, which occurred on the Sth
inst. He was about So years of age.
In his death GAINESVILLE loses valuable
citizen. He was consclentiOusly honest
man, consistent member of the Episcopal
church, and an Odd Fellow, of whom it may
be said, carried his heart in his hand. MIR.
Bates did not mingle much with society /;
not from lack of kind, social qualities,
but, laboring assiduOusly from Monday
morning till Saturday night to provide for
his family, and having an invalid wife who
was great sufferer, he spent most of his
leisure time with his household, to whom
he was ardently attached, and they in turn,
were devotedly attached to him. No man
responded more readily to the "cry ofadis-
tress" than did he. I met him at the
Franklin House, several years ago, when
he approached me, and after a cordial grasp
of the hand he said.s my Doctor tells me
he thinks you viii soon be able to meet us
in the Lodge" 1 replied, al hope so.'' Then,
his countenance bearnfng with pleasant
showed that the depths OF his heart was
stirred, he said, al would be so glad to meet
you there again. We never met in that
capacity again, but I hope to meet him
in the Grand Lodge on high, where, ere this,
his spirit has entered to enjoy an eternal
rest, where he will find the motto of our
noble order, Friendship, Love end Truth"
mas eliminated in perfection. I held him
in high esteem whilst living and now he is
gone viii revere his memory
After the Funeral services, which were
conducted at the Episcopal church OH Tues
day morning by, Rev. J. W; Venable, of
Hopkinsyille, KY, his remains were car
rieti to Greenwood Cemetery, followed by a
long cortege of friends, where his brothers
of the I. o. Of. placed him to rest. May
the grace OF God abide with his bereaved
household, and with his relatives aud
friends here and hereafter. ]. a. G.

The dry nafrain is caused by an
intense fire that drys up all the
fluids in the system and prevents
digestion. 1t can be easily cured if
treated in time. The first symp-
toms that developed in Gen. QuarIes
cow, was the drying up of her milk
three days previous to her death.
The General was absent from home
Sunday and Monday and didn't
know the cow was seriously sick
until she was dead. Matte Malone

church in individual cases, the
Methodist people of GAINESVILLE
would certainly insist on retaining

he has SO much endeared himself to

much appreciated, that none of
them would willingly give him up

mands of the church.

He breaches what he believes with

are sustained by an excellent judg-

the softer attributes OF kind heart
