At the proper time for filling the box with
names from which TO draw jurors, Auditor
Jones took Il list of all the names so placed in
the box, and arranged them by townships in
alphabetical order. The list and the names
being written in his own handwriting would
preclude the possibility of any stuiling of the
box. and the drawing out OF the little slips,
with the names on them, in the presence CT
IiSintercstcd witnesses makes IT utterly i'm.
possible to charge irrcgularity in the drawing
ut the jury. The jurics are now certainly
drawn according To tive forms of law, and as
the commission Is composed OF The present
E"ard of jury commissioners no chance for
Il chargc of fraud will he allowed. Their
hands are clean, and they can produce the tcs-

The fct-'if indeed any proof at all were nrc-
cSSary.
Among those who were called 70 witness
the drawing was Colonel j. y. Robertson, the
foreman OF the grand jury for this year.
The overthrow Of the Old plan of drawing
JuricS. Is due to the action oi Auditor Jones,
who revealed the whole scheme rs formerly
pr;ciiccd. When the matter got into the
newspapers Il change was brought about. The
old ways are behind US, and IL will be many
day before Jurors are picked us in former

DIED-At he residence of her brother-in
| law, j. T. Blanton, June 10th, 1890, a few
minutes before O'Clock P. NJ, LETTIE
SOPHIA kINkEAD, IN the 42d year Of her age.
The subject Of this noiice died Of consump-
ton: was sick over two years, but was only
confined to her bed about four months. Was
| a member of the Christian Church about %
years.
She leaves mother, brother and sister,
and nieces and nephews, besides a great
many other relatives, to mourn for her. She
expressed a desire to be spared a while
longer, that she might see her little name
sake grow up 10 remember her, but she
said, "not her will, but The Lords will. be
done"
Consolation TO these hearts overwhelmed
with sorrow can be derived only from Him
who has stricken them. But, ranks be to
His blessed name, it is abundant. Although
in this sad event, He speaks so forciby, de-
claring "Be still and know that I am God,"
yet be adds the comforting words: "Let not
your heart be troubled, neither let it be
afraid"
We must be comforted, then, with the re-
Fiction that our loved one IS not lost, but
"gone before" to the hoIo OF the Redeemer,
and let it be the purpose o, each of our
hearts in sincerity to say: since she can not
return TO US we will go to her, and meet her
over there in that better land, that blest
father-land where tender ties, sundered on
earth, are restored and completed, never
more to be severed. NIECE.

Ed. RegisteY-After long and continued
Illness, Chas. Cunningham departed this life
at O'Clock on the 18th inst. of consump-
ton, aged about 10 years. The remains
were taken to Libertyville, st. Francois
county, for iuterment.
Also, on the same day, Mrs. Susan Ryan
wife of Jas. RYAN, was called away, leaving
husband and one child to mourn her loss.
The remains were inferred in the Thomas
Cemetery, west of town.
There are yet several on the sick list, most
ly children, but at this writing they are con-
valescing.
P. ". Wyatt, of whom mention was made
in our last communication as having receiv
ed an ugly cut on the hand, on July 4th, is
ableto be around again, and reports his hand
as getting along nicely.
Mr.. George Donald is also on the crippled
lis, having received severe cut on his
right arm by falling on stone in the shed.
Also, Jas. McLaren received bad cut on
the head through falling from a scaffold.
A little son of Jas. Edmouds fell and broke
his eoli2rbone. Truly this has been week
OF deaths and accidents unprecedented for
The number.
Mr.. Roger Gay, su Ironton boy, who has
been clerkins in the Company Store at this
place for the past eight or nine months, has
left US as it were, retiring to his old home.
We regret very much your absence, Rog.,
and trust that you viii not forget Us in the
eroquet by-and-by.

these are always in order.
Mr.. John McGahau, we understand, will
start for Colorado on Tuesday. through the
advice OF his physician, as it is claimed he
has quick consumption, and that The climate

reason illhealth. We shall not mention any

it from good authority that the young gen.

ness in seeking more healthy latitude.

COlOred Society Notes.

e. A Maston makes the following expla-
nation of the supposed Offensive" portion
of his speech, made on the 18Th inst:
Owing to the fact that part of my address,
at the park, upon the "Three Factors of an
Educatlon," was partially misunderstood by
several Of my friends, was, and is being,
willfully and maliciouslv misquoted, and
misrepresented, by my enemies-for 1 have
enemies: what dutiful and law abiding citi.
zen has not?
Treating the subject OF education topicaliy.
| discussed it under the three following
heads: First, viewed the child physically;
Secondly, viewed the child morally; Third
ly, viewed the child, or youth, intellectu-
ally.
During my discussion of the physical
makeup of the child, had occasion to re-
fer, in a general way, from my experience,
as teacher, for more than % years, to the
bad results OF parents neglecting their child
ren's health. Cleanliness of person being
next 10 Goodness, of course dwelt especi-
ally, upon the great necessity of divers
washings, combngs, and pshysickings, etc.
In fact, during my experience, l argued,
that L had taught school in places where
vermin held sway in the heads of some of
the children, who were being reared by par.
ents, without proper physical culture;
where the demon of foul stomach sat SUI
preme; producing head aches, back aches,
ear aches and slothfulness; where, o,
where, the very quintessence of general
armstrong out-rauked If possible the hus.
band OF Nanny Goat himself. etc.
Now, l do not claim that the ideas used
during the address were clothed in as chaste
and as eloquent language as the above is
written; for called things by their most
familiar names. But / do claim and |
maintain that had no reference to the au. |
dience that was addressing.
Under the head of physical culture, ! |
stuck to the text. I spoke the truth, moth. |
ing but the truth, and by the eternal truth |
I'll stand. "With malice toward none and |
with charity for ALL" submit.

From Goodwater.

| Ed. Register-We have been subjected to
| a four-week's drouth-from the 18th uIt.. to
| the Sth inst. As 3 natural consequence corn
| was severely damaged-so much so in fac,
| that a large yield of that cereal is well-n;eh
| an impossibility. The drouth was very
severe in its effects-particularly SO, as all
the earlier planted corn was just 'stassellingn
and about one half "silking."
On the afternoon of the Sth inst, it rained
about an hour and half without ceasine
and the ground was once more thoroughly
soaked. Considerable wind accompanied
he rain and much corn and meadow-grass
were blown down.
During the last week of the drouth hot
days aud cool nights prevailed hereabouts.
Vegetable gardens were also much Injured
by the drouth TO the great disappointment
of housewives GENERALLY; for until the
drouth came. the gardens hereabouts looked
unusually well.
Most all are done harvesting and hay-mak-
ing was the chief employment in this Sec
ton until the rain came and temporary
stopped the work.
The dry weather vas very favorable for
harvesting and as consequence most of the
wheat and no little hay are already in the
slack.
Wheat in this locality was quite light
Oats were almost an entire failure in some
places. In others, about % per cent. of
good crop was harvested in very few in
stances more than that. Meadows were gen.
orally, fairly good. In some cases the grass
was quite short and thin on the ground-be-
cause of The successive periods OF dry wealth
Ell. On swampy meadows an unusually
heavy coat OF grass grew and consequently
they yielded large quantity Of good hay.
There is no doubt that much greater guam
thy OF hay has been stacked and moved
away in first class condition this season than
has been equally well-saved in many years
before. So while the drouth damaged Us
much in The injury 1t inflicted upon our corn
crops, it die Is no little good in enabling Us
10 harvest our hay nicely cured.
A few of Iron county's host of candidates
have canvassed this township and more are
looked for from day to day as the time for |
the Primary approaches.
F. NJ. Anderson and J. L. Laramore at |

Mr.. Arthur Sloan, Of near Caledonia, was |
seen IN this neigborhood recently; Madame |
Rumor thinks it quite likely that he will be |
again seen heroabouts enthusiastically.
Last week lot OF hay in Mr.. II. Alcorn's |
meadow was burned. 1t is said that little |
fire had been built at an old stump for the |
purpose Of warming the oil for the mower |
md that thereby the hay was ignited.
Mr.. D. S. Love, who has been at home
during the past two weeks attending to his |
harvesting, intends returning to Belgrade |
to morrow.
