p. Nj, Conference.

The Primitive Methodist annual
conference held in this city COM
menced its sittings May "a, and
closed on the 80. Peace and har-
mony prevailed, and although we
had a small decrease through so
many deaths and removals, our fu-
ture prospects are frightening. A
fund was started for mission in
Chicago and the necessity of an in
stitution for training young men for
the ministry, to be located, when the
way is open, in Mineral Point, was
talked up with a good deal of inter
est. J. Fox was president and ].
Brereton secretary. The next con-
ference will be held at Albion, Dane
county, The following are the sta
ton assigned to the several minis
ters for the ensuing wear:

DECORATION DAY.
How it was Observed at Darling
ton.

Memorial day was fittingly obser-
we'd at Darlington on Wednesday.
The unfavorable weather IN the
forenoon prevented the carrying out
in full of the published programme,
and it was decided to hold the exer-
cises in the Court House in the
afternoon. At about three o'clock
members of the Harvey Post G. A.
r. to the number of about twenty
five met and escorted the speaker,
Hon. Burr w. Jones, to the Court
House, which was completely filed
with people who came to take part
in the services to be held in honor
of the dead heroes.
After music by the Darlington
glee club and prayer by the chap
lain, Capt. S. w. Osborn in a brief
speech introduced the speaker, who
in simple and forcible manner
made an able, timely and good speech
which evidently was most favorably
received by everybody present. AL
though we greatly admired the
speeches made by Mr.. Jones in the
last presidential campaign, and in
congressional campaign of last fall,
in which he played a more conspic-
uous part, still we think that in
neither one of them did he show of
to as good advantage as he did in
his earnest, touching words of We'd
nesday. The speech was replete
with sound political doctrine, and
displayed style Of craftsmanship
which will wear, and Enthusiastically
marked Mr.. Jones as a patriot free
from craftsmanship. And if we are
not mistaken he will make such a
record in congress that will warrant
his friends in saying that he " stood
four square to all the winds that
blew" After singing, in which the
mem bers of the Harvey Post and
the audience generally joined, Mr..
Lars E. johnson read the roll of
honor, and the meeting was dis
persed with a benediction by the
chaplain.

DODGEyILLE.

The Cobb band favored us with
some excellent music on Saturday
night. The boys have reached de
gree of musical eminence that will
enable them to compete favorably
with any band III the county.
Married, at the residence of the
brides parents, on Monday evening,
May 2S, Miss Mary Hoskins, Of
Dodgeville. Wis, to Mr.. J. R. Jones,
of Adrian, MINI. May peace and
happiness be their lot.
The dog poisoner has come to
Dodgeville and is rapidly timing
the canine ranks.
The best way to convince the boys
that there has been a wrestle and
that Curkeet is the best man is to
ask one of them to lend you ~"
And when he goes down into his
wallet, with his usual good feeling,
and finds he has nothing but three
cent piece and piece of paper con-
aiming the account of the Curkeet-
Lewis wrestle, clipped from the Iowa
County Democrat, he begins to look
blue all over, and after shutting
around little, says rather nervous
ly, says: Il can't; I've been to
the wrestle !"
The school entertainment given
on Thursday evening was liberaly
patrionized and gave general salts
faction to all in attendance.
The Dodgeville schools closed
at noon on Tuesday, May 81. The
past term has been the most profit
able in the history of the school, and
the teachers deserve much credit for
their untiring energy. 1t is hoped
that the same corps may be engaged
for the next year, as we are certain
none better or more suiting to their
several positions can be secured.
Mrs. Matthew Bishop died at her
residence in this village on Monday
morning, %.
The ladies of the NJ. E. Church
held a sociable in the basement of
of the church last Tuesday evening.
Prof. Donaldson and other prom
onent boxers and wrestlers gave an

Grand Railroad Excursion.

By some persuasive power the
Good Templars of this city have
"coaxed" the c., M. 4 st. P. R'y
to grant them an excursion to
GAINESVILLE, on Wednesday, June Is.
This will be a good opportunity for
our citizens to enjoy an old-time
recreation, for it is some time since
we have had a railroad excursion.
GAINESVILLE is one of the prettlest,
go-ahead, enterprising cities in the
northwest, and has many attractions
of interest. The train will leave
this city at 90 a. N. and return at
900 p. M, allowing seven hours of
time at GAINESVILLE. The fare for the
round trip has been placed at the
low price of $3.50, which is consid-
erably less than the regular fare one
way; and considering the distance of
travel is marvelously cheap. The
railroad company will have to give
Joe Opie the boss" engine on this
occasion, for there will be a large
crowd.

INTERESTING TO FARMERS.

We have recently been hearing so much
talk by farmers and machine men about
some improvements in the way of simpli-
fcation on one of the automatic Grain
Binders, that we have made visit 10 the
agency of this Binder, and examined the
machine.
The machine referred to is the Deering
Irvine Binding Harvester, manufactured
William Deering, Chicago.
Our farmer readers are all wei, aware
that the part of self binder most liable to
get out of order is the Knotting Device.
This having the most delicate and par
ticular work to perform, has always been
somewhat complicated, delicate in size and
shape, and requiring nice and careful
adjustment.
1t is this complication that the agents for
the Deering claim that they have done away
with, and we must confess that after a
careful examination, it certainly seems to
us that they have done so.
Instead of the complicated Plunger
Bolt and the fixtures that go with it, there
is simple shaft with pinion at each end
which turns the cord holder.
One thing we saw that we could not
help commencing strongly, and that is the
doing away with three springs, as springs
are uncertain and unreliable.
We are informed that on the Improved
Deering six pieces do the work done by
twenty-one as the Deering was formerly
made, and of thirty pieces as used on the
other binders of the Appleby type.
We feel sure that the Deering representa-
tives will be glad to see any one who,
either from interest or curiosity, wishes to
see their simplified machine.
The Deering is handled IN this locality by
Martin s. Toay.
