WAsHrNor0N LETTER,

Tour regular letter from the Capital arrived
too late this week for publication entire. We
extract the following paragraphs, however, az
they would lie out of date II left over. The re-
malnder of the letter. giving view Of the
House Of Representatives, will appear nexl
week
WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. p, 49,.
The town has been painted red-red,
white and blue, in facial day to-day.
And as write, the great white monu-
ment, seeming almost to touch the
stars-like the fame of him whom it
commemorates-is cleaning in the
light of the brilliant fireworks. Even
with plenty of space and time at my
command could not convey to you
the glories of the great pageant that
has been witnessed here to-day. But
presume they will be far eclipsed by
the festivities of March 4th. Indeed
that bids fair to be the greatest pageant
in the history of the country. If any
one who reads this is coming, let me adj
wise you to consult some friend here as
to boarding accommodations, etc. If
you do you can fare comfortably and
well at an exceedingly reasonable fig
ure. If you don't you will at least
stand chance of being "fleeced."

EVERYBODY Is WONDERING

If the country isn't suffering from
an over production in the blizzard line.
If man that never tried it don't
know a good deal better how paper
ought to be run than a man who has
been in the business all his life.
If certain Humboldt attorney has
found out yet "by what right an lola
court sits in the city of Humboldt"
If the price of corn and hogs will
be any better after Cleveland is inaug-
urated.
And how it will feel anyhow, to
live under democratic president,
If the case before Judge Harris
didn't appear at some stages of the pro-
ceeding to be lola vs.. Humboldt, rath-
er than the State VS.. A. w. Ashcraft.
If lola is going to get up Fourth
of July celebration this year; and if 80
lift wouldn't be a good thing to Sc
cure good speaker now, before they
are all gobbled up.
Why in the world Col. Smith was
so coy and modest about appearing be-
fore Judge Harris on Saturday and
Monday.
If the folks that went to Humboldt
last night didn't have fine time.

FROM INDIANA.

We take pleasure in placing before
our readers the following extract from
a letter received this week from an old
Allen county man. It is dated at Six
Mile P. O., Ind, Feb. %, 1885:
We have had the hardest winter
within the memory of the oldest in
habitant. We don't mean the coolest
but more cold, more changes and low
est average temperature, although the
lowest has only reached "a degrees be-
low zero.
Quite a number of our neighbors
went to Kansas last fall and more are
talking of going in the spring. Those
who went last fall, went to Reno, Mi
ami and johnson counties. My own
health has improved a little I think,
since I was out there. I sometimes
think that may return to Kansas, but
it is uncertain, for time is fieeting and
/ realize that I am older than / once
was
My best regards for the REGISTER
and friends. JOHN VAN RIPPER.

E. 8. Miller made the high school
another pleasant call Friday afternoon.
Superintendent Henderson delivered
his practical talk last Friday, entitled
sTo-day.n. sslt
The report of the 10th grade last week
deserves especial notice as the per cent
of attendance was 100, with no cases of
hardness. The report of the whole
school was unusually good as there
were only IL cases of hardness in all
the grades.
A real good English pun once in a
while is a good thing, but q Latin pun
is an abomination; at least the 9th
grade Latin class thought so when
they came across their first pun In
Cesar.
The petroleum essayists,have the first
discouraging or perhaps encouraging
prediction, that If they stand above IS
they will do well. Hope they will be
agreeablv disappointed.
The 9th grade Latin class commenc-
ed the translation of the second book
of Caesar last Thursday.
This week completes the fifth month
of the school year.

FAITHFUL FOR FIFTY YEARS.

The handsome residence of Mr.. w.
H. Mcclure was the scene, last Friday
evening, of an extremely pleasant fam
lily reunion, held for the purpose of eel
ebrating that rare event, golden we'd
ding. Fifty years ago. on Feb. 10. 1885,
Mr.. Thos. J. Mcclure and Miss Sarah
Lehman were united in marriage at
the residence of the brides uncle in
Dayton, Ohio. The bridegroom came
into the city from the sugar camps of
Miami county, riding one horse and
leading another'tO carry home the sug-
ar kettles" After the ceremony the
kettles were sent out some other way,
and the bride rode back with her hus-
band to the farm. After remaining
there for a year or more, they removed
to New Carlisle where they lived until
1850 Mr.. Mcclure went to California,
being almost entitled to rank among
the Argonauts of that period. He fail
ed to find anything more than stray
Cling fringe or two, however, OF the
'GOlden Fleece" SO returned to his
Ohio home after an absence of three
years. In 1868, accompanied by his
son VIM. H. and family, and his two
daughters, Amanda and Jennie, he re-
moved to Kansas, locating ON farms in
Carlyle neighborhood, about half way
between Carlyle and Colony. Dur
ing their. residence there the
daughters were married, as many of
our readers know, to Capt. L. A.
Thrasher, of this place and to Mr.. B.
o. McAllister, of Ottawa. In 1872, the
two families removed to lola, where
they have since resided; being among
our best known citizens.
The reunion Friday evening brought
together all o.. the children and grand
children, 10 in number, of the family,
Capt. Thrasher and family from Chi
cagO, and Mr.. McAllister and family,
from Ottawa, arriving by the afternoon
tram. Two brothers of Mrs. Mcclure,
of Covington, KY, and a nephew, of
| st. Louis, were also expected here, but
were prevented by business engage
ments from attending and sent letters
of congratulation. Although not even
a reporter was permitted to intrude up
on the family scene, we can well imag-
inc that the evening was most happily
spent and will be long remembered by
all that were present Mr.. and Mrs.
Mcclure have both passed the biblical
limits of mans days but both are in
excellent health and bid fair to still en-
Joy many returns of the happy day,
(which the same' will be heartily
wished them by their numerous friends
among whom THE REGISTER wishes
