SUBURBAN NOTES.


1t is the custom at the Normal School for the
members of the upper classes to give little enter
tainment to the new students as an expression of
appreciation and good will. This custom was OBJ
served at the beginning of the present term; but
in addition to this, Mr. Cutter, Mr.. Snow and Miss
Bailey of the class, rendered a reception to the
DIS on Monday evening, at Normal Hall At an
early hour large company, comprising nearly the
whole school, assembled, and after music, games
and other amusements. cakes and ice cream we're
served All seemed to enjoy themselves, and the
DIS are delighted with the handsome treatment
they have received, which is in marked contrast to

with every organization that claimed to
control following of votes.
This sort of policy succeeded in elect
ing him in 1882. We do not think any
branch of the body that supported him
feels very proud of its work. We pre-
dict that a juggling combination of the
same sort, when all kinds of drinks are
poured out of the same bottle will not a.
gain carry Michigan. Begole's chances
for denomination are considered by most
politicians as absolutely certain. 1t
will be amusing to hear his supporters
dilating on his anti-mOnOpoly principles
when nearly every railroad in the state
has bought and paid for him, and holds
his receipt for the purchase price.
The reform howl will scarcely answer
as the people have awakened to the fact
that the Republicans had left nothing
to reform, and if they had, Begole had
neither the capacity, ability, or honesty
to reform it. He seems to have exhaust
ed his entire energies in exercizing his
pardoning power, attending receptions,
and shaking hands with his admirers
His friends have as yet been unable to
point out one redeeming official act, VI
one redeeming trait of character in, or
of him.
Let the RedubliCans at their state
convention nominate ticket composed
of representative men, of good sound
Republican principles, and known busi-
ness Integrity. and adopt broad gauge,
old fashioned conservative platform, and
we will contribute something for gun
powder and tar barrels to celebrate a
Republican majority in Michigan this
fall of from thirty to fifty thousand.

greatness of the party than any marked
individuality in the President. His re-

runs through the White House, but the
west wants something more than ele-
giant receptions and courtly manners.
LOGAN

letter refers to the nomination, beyond
that Logan would carry his party.

THESE QUESTIONS,

The editor of paper has more ques-
tions asked him, and gives more answers,
than any man living, though some Of the
answers may not be right. For instance,
a correspondent of an Eastern paper
says 81 have horse that has lately
suffered from periodical dizziness.
Please answer through your valuable
paper and let me know what I should do
with him. I'm afraid he will get worse
if something is not done soon." The
editor puts on his glasses, consults the
authorities on blind staggers in horses,
and answers as follows: "Our advice,
based on perusal of the valuable book,
Every man his own horse Doctor
would be to take him home and sell him
to stranger" The average horse owner
would not need the advice, as he would
sell the horse too quick, and warrant
him perfectly sound.

IN TROUBLE.

The proprietor of a museum at Cleye-
land skipped out, and the curiosities
gathered at the box office and made q
fuss about their pay. The bearded lady,
who looked so much like a man, cried
like a baby, the giant stepped on the
corns of the dwarf and when the dwarf
began to peel off his coat to fight the
giant, the big man turned pale and said
he didn't want any fuss, as he had
promised his parents not to fight. The
living skeleton took up more room than
anybody, and offered to whip the
manager, while the fat woman tainted
at white mouse carried by the Circas-
sian girl Finally the dwarf and the
living skeleton, being the curioeities
with the most pluck, were appointed a
committee to hunt up the missing
manager and maui him. Verify, people
are not what they seem. Often the
giant is a pigmy in pluck, while the
dwarf is thumper with sand 10 back
