1t will be seen by the items reprint
cd from the Union, that Geo. A. Amos
has left Humboldt and returned t.
Illinois to make it bis future home
Mr.. Amos has a great many friend;
out side of Humboldt who will regre
his removal, and will wish him wei
wherever he goes.
Frank 9oforth, who has been an in
mate Of the reform school during tht
past four years, has returned to thiI
vicinity. He speaks in the highest
terms Of the management of the schoO
and expresses his determination L
profit by its teachings,-a determiua-
ton in which he should receive every
encouragement.
Rev. w Fl. Hyatt, of this place, and
Mr.. p. NJ. Carnine, ..of Carlyle, started
on Monday, by wayof the No. Pac.
railway, for New York where they &c
to attend the meeting Of the General
Assembly of the Presbyterian church
Both gentlemen were accompanied by
their wives, Mrs. Carnine expecting tC
stop in Indiana to visit relatives, and
Mrs. Hyatt going to Philadelphia tc
spend few weeks with her mother.
The name of the post office formerly
called Elsinore has been changed tc
Elsmore, to correspond with the name
of the township. tits fitting that they
should both have the same name, but
we regret that the change could not
have teen the other wayD There are
very pleasant historical and literary
associations clinging about the word
Elsinore, but Elsmor doesn't mean
anything or suggest anything so faI
as we have ever heard.
A surprisingly large number of peo.
pie attended the social given Tuesday
night by the Young Ladies' Missionary
Society of the NJ. f. Church at the
residence OF Mr.. N. Hankins north.
west of the city. The evening was
beautiful and nearly all the young peo.
pie in town took advantage of the oo.
casion to enjoy it to the utmost. Mr..
aud Mrs. Hankins and the young Ia
dies Of the society were equal to all
demands, however, and every body re.
ports delightful time.
In an interview published on anoth.
er page ofthis paper, Col. Jones makes
substantially the same statement that
appears in his report to the Secretary
of the Interior regarding his action in
the appointment of deputies in Okla
homa. So far as we can see this state
ment shows nothing wrong, as the ap-
pointment of only 19 deputies could
certainly not be considered out of the
way. 1t is said that Secretary Noble
Is not satisfied, however, and will ia.
quire farther into the matter.
| The entertainment to be given on
the 25th inst, under the auspices OF
the w. Il. C., promises TO attract a
large audience. Maj. Hendershot, "the
drummer boy Of tho Rappahannockn u
will occupy most of the evening, but
there will also be recitations by Capt.
e. j. Thayer. Lutte Thrasher, and
Misses May Ewing, Clara WeIch and
Maude Thrasher, and music by our
home singers. Altogether the pro-
gram is most entertaining one aud
no one should miss the opportunity Of
hearing it.
| Miss Ida Maier went to Parsons on
Saturday TO spend a week or so visit
Ing relatives, and from there will go
to Kentucky and enter convent.
Miss Ida is one of our finest young
ladies, and We are sorry to hear of her
determination. However, she is a
lady OF deep religious feeling. and We
suppose her heart and conscience told
her that she could do more good to
suffering humanity as nun than In
any other capacity. She will have
the best wishes of large circle of
friends.-Colony Free Press.
Soma of our exchanges are rsmark-
ing that the County Superintendent
now has the authority by virtue OF the
law passed at the last Legislature to
call a convention of all school district
officers for the purpose Of adopting q
nnif0rm system of text books throug h.
out The county. If this be the case ".
trust that Superintendent Bs;oer will
call such convention same time this
summer. The advantages. from an
economic as we'll as from an eduea.
tionai standpoint, of having a uni
form series 0f text books 10 all the
schools of the county, are 10 apparsp:
as certainly to nus4 no aralment =,
