To the Patrons of the Ironton Public School.
Next Tuesday afternoon, 22d inst, is the
time for our special exercises which you are
urged to attend. Last month at these eXer-
cises, the number of visitors was compare
lively large. We expect to see the number
steadily and largely increase. Don't disap-
point us. You can by attending learn con-
siderable of the progress of your children.
Besides, your presence will stimulate both
teachers and pupils to more diligent and
painstaking efforts. Make your children
feel that their school cork is an important
business and not mere fashion. We want
our children trained intellectually as well as
morally. In other words we want them ed
ucated. That this, the chief of our earthly
desires, may be realized we must impress by
our own active visible interest in their edu-
cation, the great value of the means, the
school with all its appliances-used to secure
the end. Do not many, by their indifference
to the school work of their children and
iness, by which the bread aud butter are
earned impress, unintentionally and imper-
ceptibly though it may be, the "boys and
girls" with the idea that education is-in no
way connected with building houses, man.
aging farms, railroading, selling goods,
practicing medicine and law, conducting
newspapers, &C.? Emphatically, yes. The
design of these monthly exercises is to af-
ford you means additional to what you al
ready enjoy of impressing the school with
your interest I'm the Importance of its work.

HOGAN, No., Dec. 18th, 1885.
Ed. Register.-1n your last issue l notice
an item in regard to VIM. Bolinger's sad
death on December 4th, in which some mis-
takes occur. On the date named, he, with
Mr.. Jas. Wilson and son, was engaged haul
ing lumber from Coleman's mill to Berry
man Switch, from which place they were re-
turning about P. n. When at point
within half mile of the mill, he was struck
by a small falling tree, knocking him OF the
wagon. Mr.. Wilson, who was in advance,
ran back and found him lying, his face to
the ground, apparently dead, with his head
and face covered with blood. He soon re-
vIved, however, and spoke few words, but
could not stand. Mr.. Wilson then laid him
down, and ran to the wagon for a coat to put
under his head, but before he could return,
Billie got up and made few steps, then
sank down. He told Wilson to hold him
up and not let him strangle: he then said,
"Lord have mercy-have mercy-on me-"
and asked Wilson what was the matter, and
asked him for a handkerchief to wipe the
blood off Wilson sent his son down to the
mill to give the alarm. Everything was
stopped, and soon all hands were on the
mountain at the place OF accident. It was
near dark and the wind very high. A mess
senger was sent for Drs. Farrar and Berry
man, also one for his wife. He was then
carried to his sisters house, near the mill,
where all was done that could be done, but
he was then unconscious and died at II P. NJ.
His wife and brothers arrived about 8 P.
NJ, but he did not recognize them.
Deceased was 80 years old, and leaves a
wife and three small children to mourn his
sad death, beside numerous other relatives
and friends. Billie was not member of
any church, but was pious, honest, good
man, and his friends hope all is well with |
him, believing that merciful God never
turned aside such prayer as his.

Inc Doll Fair and Oyster Supper given by
the ladies Of st. Paul's Church last Thurs
day evening. at the Academy of Music. was
an agreeable surprise in its results. The at
tendance was very large, and everybody
In excellent humor. The gross receipts
amounted to $7640, netting a little over $56.
The new bell is now paid for, and few dol
lars left in the treasury. The ladies of the
church desire to return thanks to the gener-
Gus people of all denominations for good
will and Kindly favors.
We are informed by G. A. Maston, that
through the agency Of Mrs. Jane Hawkins,
and sister, the colored preacher, Rev. Aba
nather, was surprised by pound party, who
visited the parsonage on the night of the 18th
inst, and made glad the hearts of the pastor
and his wife, by presenting to them groce-
ries amounting, in value, to eight or nine
dollars. Before the party left, some fine
singing was dones and complimentary re-
marks were made, by Messrs. Maston, Aba
nather and Martin. We are also informed
that there are 50 names on the roll of the
coiored school; and IA fair average attendance.
We record with special pleasure that the
church of Ironton, Mo. has become self-sus-
tanning. Under the leadership of its ener-
getic and efficient pastor, Rev. 4. o. Penni
man, the church has so far increased its
gifts as to be able to support its pastor. 1t
is now removed from the list IT benefciaries
and takes its place among the benefactors.
The example of this church will do much to
stimulate others, in like condition, to self
support the pastor of the church. Rev. Mr.. |
Penniman well merits the congratulations of
his brethren for his success. He has proved |
himself to be wise and efficient workman.

land office at DEVILS Lake and found that
the half-brccds had been filing entries as

Mr.. Gardner that the half-breeds would
render their filings void if they ac-

played this sharp trick on the department.
They call themselves Indians, and draw
supplies as ouch. Under the law passed
last July, an Indian may file on n home
stead exactly us q white man except that
lie pays no fees, congress having appropri-
ated money for that purpose, and that tho
United States holds tho lands thus entered
for twenty-five years in trust for the sole
use and benefit OF the Indian by whom said
entry shall have been made, or in cuse OF

the expiration OF twenty-five years the
United States agrees to convey the land by
patent to the Indian or heirs, but the sharp
Turtle Mountain Indians prefer to flo as

way and spending the money, they come in

A Yellow.tone Park ROMANCE.

Bismarck Tribune: An intelligent, ON.
bltlous young man and q blue.eycd, ruby.
Tipped little lady occupied the same seatin
ono ofthePulmnn slcepers on All cast-bound
train. A Tribune representative entered
into conversation with ~ gentleman near
ny, who impaired the information that
the young couple had just entered upon
ehelr mnritatcarccr. having been married
IN tho Yellowstone Park, where they met
Tor the first time. Tho young lady was
Miss Clara Bernstein OF Cincinnati, and the
young groom Mr.. Frank Williams of San
francisco. The young couple met in the
park and the rapidity with which cupid
manipulated tho silvcry chords OF love,
fastened them at either end, and clcncllcd
them ut both sides, was such as to
give the case the romantic name oi
love at first sight" The young lady
was accompanied by an aunt from Phila-
delphia and several college friends, all OF
whom protested against her manifcs-
tations OF affection for one with whom she
had no acquaintance. But the young
man was dignificd ane gallant, aud seemed
worthy OF the love which the fair Clara lc-
slowed. After q weeks %ojourn together
amid the many tinted wonders of the park,
the couple were engaged and made the fact
known to their friends and companions.
The young mans worth and rcspcctability
were proven by prominent tourists i'll the
park; the young lady's modcsty and wom-
nnly simplicity were sufficient guarantees
Of her character, and three weeks from the
day OF meeting the lovers were united in
wedlock by Rev. ID. c. Burnett OF Florida,
who was among the visitors. The mar.
riage took place within twenty yards Of
Old Faithful geyscr, and the wedding was
ceebrated by IL grand open air dance and
iollification. The couple are on their we'd
ding tour. They will visit New York and
then return to their future home ut the
golden gate OF the Pacific slope.

I Mrs. Samuel NJ. Shoemaker, says the
Baltimore Sun, has lost by death from ill.,
.flamation OF the lungs the world-rcnowncd
COW Princess Second, which astonisl,cd the
world by giving in seven days n yield of
forty-six pounds and ten and half ounces
OF butter. This test Of her butter qualities
was completed April 10, 1885. Some time
after the tests the blankets were taken off
rather suddenly, it is thought, and she took
a cold, from which she never recovered.
She was n magnificent animal OF great
vitality and force. as well as "a fine butter
producer. One oftl,e secrets of lcrimmcnsc
yields OF butter was her great vitality
and appetite. During the very height OF
the test, when SHE was fed as large
quantities OF butter-producins food us
it was thought she could safely bear she
broke loose ono night and consumed over
200 pounds OF prepared food in IL box in the
stable. About two years ago Mrs. Shoe
maker refused $25, 900 iorhcr. She was s
years and six months old when she died
She was an imported COW, and was bought
at auction in New York for Si,s0O. She
was at the celebrated Coomasse strain
Her first cali WAS sold during an absence
from home OF Mrs. Shoemaker forS1O, 900,
but the sale did not stand, Mrs. Shoemaker
refusing to ratify it on her return.
While the Burnside Park Jersey herd has
sustained great loss in the death of Princess
Second, it is thought her place will be more
than filled by ~ noble cow OF grand ply
siquc OF the same strain. This animal,
Oxford Kate, near rrlativc Of Princess
Second has already record of thirty-nine
pounds twelve ounces of butter in seven
days, which is already second to Princess
Second, and as she has never been pushed,
it il believed she can beat the foremost rec
ord. The father OF this COW sold for 81, so.
All the Burnside herd are in fine condition.
