The lecture delivered before the higf
school yesterday afternoon by Mr.. Ber-
nard Bigsby was listened to by delight
ed audience, composed of members of the
high school and many of their parents
and friends. Principal Mcneil was
present from Moline with his teachers
and the members of his senior class.
The speaker, in manner so graphic that
the listener seemed to be transported TO
the scenes portrayed, led his audience
through the old town of Winchester, de-
scribing its gardens, homes and public
buildings. The interest clustered about
the old school. where all were introduced
to the august master. The old tower
and the ivy-clad walls. some more than
five centuries old, stood out in clear
view as the speaker stood in the beauti-
full English garden and pointed them out.
Here was Arnold as school boy. The
principal interest of the lecture centered
about the old school of Rugby, where Mr.
Bigsby was school boy for nine years.
High tribute was paid to the methods of
dealing with boys in American schools
with many of the severe and
brutal methods of the schoolmaster in
many English schools. His description
Of life at Rugby brought out stories of
The noble martyr, Chinese Gordon, who,
Ia nyIyo 10
nissal, hardly gave promise of the noble
manhood of later years. His eulogy of
Arnold, England's noblest teacher, was
inspiring and must give nobler impulses
o the lives of all who heard it, Dir.
3igsby Is a strong speaker and we be-
ieye that an address such as that given
of incalculable profit to the
members of our high school.

| This assertion is not without foundation
and the reasons why Mr. William Mem.

Mr.. Ii. Z. Casteel the next circuit clerk,
are that they are popular candidates in

dates on the other side. This is espe>

quietly Married Two Months Ago
but who Told no One Until Now.
Two months ago today at Toulon, Stark

were Joined in marriage. For reasons
which were best known to themselves the
young people decided that no one in

monial venture until circumstances

be prudent and proper to divulge their
secret. Their names were W. II. Lloyd,
a quite well known stone cutter, and
Miss Myrtle Hamlin. much esteemed
clerk in McCabe's store. On the day stated,
they went down on the Rock Island s. Pc
oria road - the morning, spent the day
Toulon, and the ceremony having been
performed returned to the city in the
evening. That night they went to their
respective homes, the families of both re-
siding in the city, and since that time the
matter has been kept profound secret
by the young couple.
The husband, however. has now OBJ
tanned lucrative position at his trade in
Topeka, Kan. and is about to send for
his bride, and so the matter has leaked
out. Mrs. Lloyd will Join her husband
in few days, and the hope accompanies
the romantic young pair that in their
new western home the joys and comforts
of unrestrained love will be theirs

sia, are filled with new hopes after a
few doses OF Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters. This budding hope blossoms into
the fruition of certainty, if the Bitters

all dyspeptics who seek its aid. Flatu-
lence, heartburn, sinking at the pit Of
the stomach between meals, the ner-
vous tremors and insomnia of which
chronic indigestion is the parent, disap-
pear with their hateful. progenitor.
Most benefcent of stomachics! who can
wonder that in so many instances it
awakens grateful eloquence in those
who, benefited by it, speak voluntarily
in its behalf. Itrequires q graphic pen
to describe the torments of dyspepsia,
but in many testimonial received by the
proprietors of the Bitters, these are
portrayed with vivid truthfulness. Con-
stipation, biliousness, muscular debility,
malarial fever, and rheumatism are re-
lieved by it.
