The Library.

The increasing patronage Of the library,
conducted by the young ladies Of this city,
and the urgent necessity of more books has
caused them to request aid in the emergency.
Many of the books have been worn out from
almost constant use, and the remainder have
been read so often that new books are in
great demand at that institution. To help the
library in this matter it is suggested that
each family in the city of Ottawa that can
spare a volume or two to donate to the library
do so, and by this means a number of new
books can be added to Is shelves. In almost
every family in this city there is one book
that can be given. There is no better way 10
do good with a volume than to place it in tie
Young Ladies' Library, where, instead of one
reader, it will have 10 or Is. This appeal is
made to the people of Ottawa in behalf Of a
very worthy cause, and it is 10 be hoped that
all who can conveniently donate a book to the
library will do Sc at once.

1t is a source of satisfaction to know that
our predictions of an immense holiday trade
at H. J. Gillens has been fully fulfilled tits
also a satisfaction to know, as we do, that
buyers have been more than delighted with
the goods and astonished at the low prices
made there during the holidays. 1t is fur
Their satisfaction to know that every promise
of the house has been kept, and that goods
have been purchased there for holiday use at
lower prices than were offered by any other
house in the county.
We have the entire confidence that the pub
Ire will understand the full measure of the
bargains when we announce, by authority,
that from this time on the house will make a
clean S,ceep of the entire holiday stock aud the
entire line of winter goods as well.
The immense and superb stock is included
in this announcement, and all the splendid
garments yet remaining will 90 at figures
that will astonish all. JUDGED, low as his
prices have heen, these goods will be closed
out at prices never yet reached even by H. j..
Gillen.
Shawls, dress goods, that magnificent silk
stock, all the holiday noyelties-a stock hard,
ly 10 days old-all the winter stock, will be
closed out at "clcan sweep" prices.
This is truly an opportunity rarely offered.
1t is not the customary "snap" clearing-out
"racket," but genuine reduction sale, made
solely for the purpose Of moving these goods
within the next 60 or 20 days. The goods are
there. They are warranted as represented,
and anyone who looks into the house will see
the absolute necessity of cleaning them out
during the time named, prior to the arrival of
the spring invoices.
This is sufficient reason for the reduc
tions in price claimed, and these reductions
will be found TO be actual.

The projectors Of the new road from Bel
videre to Spring Valley, intend to extend the
road south through Putnam county, proba-
ably to st. Louis. The survey ors have been
at work on the proposed extension and the
Illinois river, at Spring Valley, will be
bridged over by next August. Some Of the
items of cost in the construction Of this new
branch of the c. & n. W. may be inferred
from the fact that it cost the latter company
$50, 900 for the privilege of crossing the
Central at Dimmick, and $500 600 were paid
the c., b. & Q. company to allow the new
road to cross at Earlyille. The entire est
mated cost of the road bed is 100000.
Trains have been RAINING regularly on the
branch during the past three weeks, with
one passenger each way and four freights
daily.

A number of our local sports went to Strea-
tor Tuesday night to witness the glove fight
between Frank Glover, Of Chicago, and Char
ley Lomasney, of Streator. The pet and
pride of Hardscrabble lost the fight in the
third round on an alleged foul. In the first
round the ropes broke and Lomasncy fell out
over the stage, Glover falling heavily upon
him, and after that the latter had the contest
his own way. About 300 disciples OF the
manly art paid dollar head to see the
"scrap." jim Glenn, Of La Sale, was referee,
and sporting circles at Streator are highly in
ceused at his decision, declaring that at best
he should have decided it a draw. Glover
took the gate receipts, and his hackers
scooped in lots Of stuff from the Lomasney
men.

Freezing at Ills Post While He BraTely Stood nj
the Wheel OF a Lake Schooner.

During the recent storm on the lakes sailor
Lad named johnson manfully stood at the wheel
OF the schooner Scud, up 70 his waist In water
all the time and half drowned by every wave
that struck the vessel, while the services Of the
crew were required elsewhere. John Edwards,
one of the crew. says: The night grew colder
every minute, and ice accumulated on the decks
and gear so fast that we feared we would be
water-logged. AT 10 p. IN. we sent young
johnson 20 the wheel, while the Captain aud
the rest OF US went at work 20 get another reef
In the foresail, thinking that II we shortened
sail more we could hold on until daylight.
When we got through / was the only man Who
could move, though my clothes were frozen
stih. The Captain was nothing but big icicle
and his clothes were frozen so solidly that he
could not move a step. With great difficulty /
managed TO drag him into the galley and laid
him down alongside the fire TO thaw out, and
then dragged the other two men aft and laid
them beside him. Then / crawled to the bow
at the wheel and found that though he could
use his arms TO steer, he couldn't move his legs
Poor fellow, he had 10 stand in that little boz,
more than half the time up 10 his waist i'm
water. He asked me in a pitiful way 10 take
him below, and i did IL. and then took the
wheel myself Left alone, 1 concluded that
our only salvation was TO run for it, and put
ting the wheel hard up, i turned her round.
On Thursday morning We fetched up on the
beach at New Buffalo, going up high and dry.
When we got ashore the Captain and others
had recovered some from their long exposure.

down and was carried away senseless, and it
was feared that his injuries might prove Sc

complaint and fine entered against him by a

She Killed fhs Rear.

Mrs. 0verbaugh, the wife Of farmer resid-
Ing about three miles from Shsndaken Center,
n. Y. left her home to pay visit to a neighbor
living about a mile distant. Her road lay
through a dense wood in the widest part of
the Catskill Mountains. After walking a short
distance she perceived a little in advance of
her what she at first thought a large New
foundland dog, but which, on closer inspection,
proved to be black bear. Mrs. 0verbaugh ran
back home, and, possessing herself Of her hus-
bands rifle and extra charges of ammunition,
started TO kill the bear. She walked until
about % yards from the animal, and then
steadily took aim aud fired. The bear was
seriously wounded, and the huntress coolly
reloaded her rife and fired again, this time
striking it between the eyes and killing the
beast instantly. The bear when dressed
weighed 256 pounds. Mrs. Overbaugh intends
having his skin dressed as proof of her Prov
ess. This is by no means the first occasion she
has proved her skill as a markswoman, though
never before on such large game. Bears seem
10 be more numerous in the Catskill Mountains
this year than usual, several having been killed
during the Fall.

Arrest OF Politicians.

At indianapolis, Dec. z, warrants for the
arrest Of four prominent Democrats were issued.
They were Simeon Coy, Chairman of the Demo-
cratic County Committee; w. F. Bernhamer,
Chairman Of the Board of Canvassers John II.
Counselman, an Election Inspector, and Henry
n. Span, lawyer. Failing to secure indict-
mcnts by the recently discharged Federal Grand
Jury, tho Republican Committee adopted this
course. The allegations against the defendants
are that they fraudulently changed the tallies
and returns of the votes in five precincts of this
city at the recent elections The writs were made
returnable on next Thursday. 1t was agreed
not 10 serve the writs until Thursday, as no
fears are entertained that the defendants will
leave the city. The Republicans seem frantic
for the arrest of Democrats to Offset the haul
ofseven Republicans last week in Orange County
charged with bribery on election day The
evidence, they say is strong and will convict
the four Democratic defendants. 1t is the same
that was rejected by the Federal Grand Jury.
