The HERALD correspondent in this
place has been lazy or Indifferent as to
matters of correspondence. There is
plenty of material out of which to make
some interesting notes were some one
who is handy with the gull, only to
note the passing events. The political
pot has commenced to bubble in mild
manner; delegates are going to caucuses
and conventions in all directions and to
all parties. The Republicans are up
and doing as usual, when any thing
turns up in political line. The slow
going Democrats are putting on their
war paint and brushing up a bit for the
purpose of engaging in this falls scrim-
mage. Well let 'em grind We are
ready for any thing that comes along
no matter what. The Greenbackers
have not done any thing as yet in this
part of Old Grant, but no doubt they
will in due time be heard from.
The people of this community are
more interested in getting their corn
planted than they are in any political
machine that may be running in the in-
terest of some fellow who wants fat
office. Business in town is at present
quiet, for the reason that the people
are busy on their farms, putting in their
crops; yet our merchants have no reas-
on to complain. taking the times into
consideration.
Will Hick Post, No. 1874, G. A. R..
has taken steps to observe, in proper
manner, the service of Decoration Day.
There will be good speaking and plenty
of music, instrumental and vocal, and
in fact everything to observe the day in
a proper manner. The Post is flour
ishing beyond the most sanguine ex-
pectations of its most ardent friends of
the Grand Army of the Republic.
The village election comes off on
Tuesday, on which day our city gov
eminent will pass into other hands. l
would give the names of those nomi-
mated at the caucus last Saturday, but it
has got to that point in this place that
caucus is not worth cuss, ANYWAY;
the people will get up other tickets and
play the duce with the caucus nominees.
Corn planting has commenced and
hopes are entertained that an abund-
ant crop will be the result of the sea-
sons work. Grass is growing finely
which promises an abundance of feed
for stock.
Our creamery has started i'm good
earnest and is doing good business
for the season.
Mr.. M. b. ellis has commenced work
on his residence in this village. He
has handsome site for a building and
a pleasant home is in the future for Mr..
ellis and his family
The children's May Day party was
moistened by a gentle dew; but they
had good time, anyway, at the city
hall, where was served a bountiful re-
past of the best, and lemonade by the
gallon. The Bloomington Cornet Band
was out in full array, and, by the way,
our band is doing finely. The boys are
hard to beat on music, and they are
generous with it, too. They are in
training for Decoration Day.
The click of the telegraph can be
heard in four different places in town.
The boys are learning the trade.

Our community was thrown into wild
excitement and grief about noon to-day
as the news spread from house to house
that Samuel Handy, one of the finest
young men of our community had COM
mitted suicide by shooting himself Re-
pairing at once to the home of Mr..
Handy, father of Samuel, we found the
sad news too true.
The deceased has been laboring hard
to procure for himself an education that
would fit him for some useful and hon
orable occupation in life and had prob
ably overtaxed himself as he has COM
planned much for some time past of
severe pain in his head. so much so that
he felt fearful that he would be COM
PEELED to give up the school altogether;
but we must refrain, as there will be
furnished you an obituary from the pen
of one more intimate with the deceased.
Suffice it for us to say that Samuel
had won BY his many virtues the esteem
of all who knew him, and the grief
stricken parents and brother and sister
have the sympathy of the entire COM
munity in this, their sad and chief afflic-
ton.

to grumble, yet there was plenty left.
None enjoyed the occasion better than
Mr. and Mrs. easier. Mr.. c. for himself

L. HoLLIsTER. This former old resi-
dent of Grant county, who died at
Sparta, Wisconsin, March 16, of hem
orrhage of the lungs, was seventy-six
years old. He had lived in this county
for over thirty years, and removed to
Sparta to be with his children, who had
preceded him, in the decline of life.
His demise was sudden and unexpected
to his family, as on the day before his
death he walked down town and seemed
quite smart in the evening, but on the
following morning hemorrhage of the
lungs took place and he died almost
without warning. His many old ac-
quaintances in Lancaster were grieved
to learn of his death, but no particulars
were received at the time. The family
have here large number of friends who
sympathize with them in their loss.
