Rt. Rev. Bishop Gilbert will Otfici-
ate at All Saints church, on Friday
evening of this week.
A letter box has been placed i'll the
hall Of the Congregational church for
communication to the pastor. The
congregation are invited to make free
use of it.
The Tribune fable about the lion
and ass is too old to be claimed as Or
iginal, even by an editor of thirty years
standing, the other sqUibS, of lower
order, are his own.
A telegram came to F. E. Newell
on Tuesday morning that his nephew
ged Is years was killed at Hastings,
his home. Deceased was brother to
Johnnie Newell. who resided here for
some time. Mr.. Newell went down
on the noon train.
Business meeting of the Christian
Endeavor society at the close of the
meeting next Sunday evening. The
society is growing and has in contem-
pIation a series of gatherings. also
the formation of class in the church
for advanced bible study, probably
the Harper inductive lessons.
The county superintendent of
schools, in his perambulatiOns among
the districts, arrived just in time the
other day at district No -, Darnen,
to settle a very delicate question
about a dinner kettle. E. W. Randall
teacher, will furnish you with full
particulars on application.
We are able to inform the farmers
of this, and surrounding counties,
that we can furnish The Sun and
the Great West one year for $500.
The Great West is weekly, printed
in Minneapolis, and the official paper
of the state alliance. 1t is needless
to add to what we said last week
about that paper, it is certainly the
best alliance paper in the state.
The merchant editer" would be
under obligations to the Tribune for
so much free advertising if 1t was not
couched in such low language.
How an editor of thirty years exper.
fence can circulate such language
among respectable families, we don't
understand. This kind of language
might answer where our esteemed
contemporary has spent his thirty
years, but it will not be appreciated
in Morris.
What's wrong between the wheat
buyers and the merchants of Morris.
The wheat buyers say the merchants
don't meet them on prices. They
claim to give the highest price for
wheat of any town west of Minneapo-
lis, and their claim is just. but they
think if the merchants would put
their prices down as low as they
could and should do, the farmers
would be loaded both ways. and this
is as it should be. If the merchants
can do any better than they are doing
they should do it.
The Tribune seems to have receiv.
ed Sun stroke last week, from which
it has not yet recovered. Its brains
fit has any, are badly effected. Its
rawlings are frightfule We :. would
publish column Of it for the edifica
ton of our readers, But that we ser
tously object to soiling THE suns
type with such filth. But we seri
ouslY protest, in behalf of the reader!
of that filthy sheet, that s1ch scurrIl
Gus language should be circulated
among respectable ladies and chill
dren. This is all at present, but still
THE Sun shines.
On Friday night last the Pulliau
family were thrown into a state O
CONSERVATION, by the absence of thei
little boy who had gone to the lake t.
skate. When ever a boy starts TO
the lake, which all boys do, tn
mother gees, or think she sees, abou
a Thousand holes where men hay
been cutting ice, and il her chill
does not return punctually, which n
boy ever does, she immagines he is i
one of those holes. This was tn
case with Mrs. Pulliam on Frida
night, and until o'clock Saturda
morning, when she learned he wa
out to Delahunt Bros. farm, wheF
he had gone for ride. Mrs. Pulliar
has hardly recovered eauanmity YET
It is needless to say that Sam locke

come to an end.
