The more fun that is made of Anglo

But have just seen one maiden who
relapsed briefly into Amer:canism, and
it was positively refreshing. She was
one of those hollow-backed, clean cut
girls who wear tailor-maie costumes so
neatly that their forgiveness for ds-
loyalty to Yankeedom is easy. She was
walking in the avenue with a spr;ngy
gait, suggestive of turf under her fe Il
instead OF hard stone. Although onnui-
buses are abolished from lower Broad
way. they still run through this fash
ionable thoroughfare: and she decided
to ride in one. A cold, distraught stare
at the driver. and slight fling upward
of her hand, involving no motion above
the wrist, brought the vehicle to a stop
in the quite proper manner. Then she
had to bid adieu to her companion-a

A GENTLE RNyo1NnER.

Editor Register:-With your per-
mission will endeavor to answer the
questions of Mr.. Irwin SO plainly that
"the wayfaring men though fools shall
not err therein"
1. 1.-THE gentleman had the sagaci-
ty of ten year-Old school boy, he
would not claim as p rivate a letter ex-
planning charge publicly made,
and especially 50 when called forth for
the purpose of publicly answering
the charges made. or on the other
hand, putting into the hands Of his
opponent the weapons Of his destruc-
ton. Certainly am not to be held
accountable for the opacity of another's
intellect.
3. Whether / have "SS or $40 collins

him or me: For myself or for mine /
answer no. As there is no accounting for
tastes cannot answer for him.
8. Wasn't there SO or so profit on
your $40 bills:" There was not SO
profit on my bill. There was included
in the $40 bill for a suit of clothes
from a dry goods merchant of this
place, bill for digging and filling tine
grave and bill for attendance by an
other party. The profits were just as
legitimate and as free from exorbitance
as any transaction the gentleman him
self may be in the habit of performing
for gain.
f. "Was it not as much on account
of this profit as it was your desire to
honor your deceased comrade that
your little bill was presented :" This
is foul libel on the hottest attributes
of humanity. What! A few paltry

ALLEN COUNTY HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY
President Cook took the chair and
called the meeting to order in the Of
flee of Mr.. Apple, in lola, on Saturday
Sept. 5th, in the midst of busy
throng of members and others sorting
and packing fruit to exhibit at the
fairs. The principal business of the
meeting was concerning the proposed
exhibitions. On motion of Mr.. Van
Deman every person who had contrib
uted fruit to the present collection for
exhibit was made a member of the So
ciety for one year without the usual
fee, and notice to that effect is hereby
given to all such persons.
After the members had examined
the specimens collected by Mr.. Van
Deman, on motion of Mr.. Rhoades it
was positively determined to make an
exhibit of the fruit of the county ut
Bismarck fair, and if the delegates in
charge thought best also at Kansas
City the week after. Mr.. VanDeman
then proposed that if the society did
not wish to risk the expense of making
the proposed exhibits he would pay all
the costs of the same and accept what
might be taken as premiums as pay
for his time and trouble in collecting
and exhibiting the specimens. After
this offer the society de-
cided to pay the expenses and accept
the result Of the exhibit. Mr.. Van
Beman, of Geneva, and Mr.. Swart-
man, of Humboldt, were then chosen
to take charge of the exhibition, after
which the Society adjourned.
The following is a list of those who

bers of the, society for one year. If

ry will be notified.

them good round salary to keep
