Streby if you should be attacked
with the grippe and the disease
should settle on your brain pan the
physician in attendance would be at
q loss to know which end to apply his
treatment. Streby they say you are
only half baked and that a glance at
your silly countenance is sufficient
to satisfy any person of this state-
ment. OF course we would not ac-
cuse you of being a fool but we
would suggest that you publish an
article in your next issue denying
the statement and set yourself square
ly before the people. Now Streby it
will require considerable care and
some brain work in writing this
article to convince the people that
you are man of brains and unless
you can improve on past articles we
would advise you to call in the edi-
tor in chief to do the work. We
take great pleasure in looking after
your welfare and shall at all times
prompt you wherein we can do you

eide to write the brainy article you
had better commence on Saturday

in you paper let it be good and
right to the point. Your readers
will anXiously look for the Gazette
next week and shall expect to be
agveeably surprised to learn that

Walker Blaine son of James G..
Blaine, died on Thursday last.
Funeral services on Sunday Jan.
18th. Secretary Blaine's agonizing
grief at his sons funeral would have
touched the heart of his bitterest
enemy. At the private service in
the parlors of the Blaine home, at
the public service in the Church of
the Covenant and at the grave in
Oak Hill cemetery, looking down on
Washington, he could not refrain
his sobs. Mrs. Blaine was weeping
all the time, but her husbands eff
forts to check his tears made them
more pathetic. As he sat with
bowed head in the Church of the
Covenant, as he stood with bowed
frame at the open grave, supporting
his wife until, at the words "dust to
dust" they turned away, utterly un-
able to look longer, he seemed to
have aged twenty years since his
son died.

Where Are the Pigeons ?

1t is not so many years since that
flights of wild pigeons occurred dur.
ing the autumn over the eastern and
middle states. The younger gener.
alton of sportsmen, however, has
probably never seen living speci-
men of that bird, its acquaintance
with it being confined entirely to
the plucked specimens on the stands
of dealers in the market. Mr..
William Brewster, who has made a
thorough and exhaustive study OF
the causes of the disappearance of
the wild pigeon from it's former
haunts, has established the fact that
its flight in vast body is now en-
tirely confined to the great unin-
habited wilds of British North
America.-Neac York SIN.

In the farming district of Quincy
H., the farmers are terrified almost
nightly by the screams of wild ami
mails. At first lNwas thought that
q woman or child was in distress,
and search was made, but in vain.
Shortly after the first scare farmer
found q COW and calf dead in his
barn yard teiriably mangled. The
animal was followed by trails of blood
TO neighbor farmers barn where
five goats were found dead. One
farmer while feeding his cattle no.
ticed the straw moving, and present
ly huge animal sprang from be-
meath it and took to the woods near
by. The impression is that the
animals are two panthers and two
lions which escaped from cages,
owned by travelling circus, caused
by IN upset. 1t was reported by
the managers of the circus that the
animals had been re-captured but
the people of that vicinity doubt the
truthfullness of the story.

j. w. Flynn Esq, and Thos. E.
Kennedy Esq, head clerks in James
McFarlane & Cos. store at the La
Porte tannery, were exercising the
handsome gray ponies Of James Nc
Farlane on Main ST. Saturday. By
the-way LaPorte can boast of own
ing the finest aud most valuable
horse flesh of any town in the coun-
ty. For instance there is the Nc
Farlane roadsters which we think
is the finest in the county, and then
there is the gray heavy weights OF
James Walsh, which is a noble
drawing team and fine lockers. For
light weights at the age of four
years, we would call the attention
of those interested to the span of
blacks owned by Walter Spencer jr.
They are beauties. For single driv-
ers we only need mention a few, viz:
Chilly" owned by Atty. II. t.
Downs which is known by his fast
record, handsome frame and kind
manners. Then there is "Erastus"
owned by Proth'y. Walsh. "Eras-
tus" is dandy, and is known by
his ambitious desire of getting-there,
the driver only need to slacken the
reins and "Erastus" will improve
the opportunity. For a heavy
weight, L. j. Keeler owns very
valuable horse. We nearly forgot
to mention "Ulysses," owned by
Atty. E. NJ. Dunham. "Ulysses" is
not world renown for his fast record
nor for his beauty but he is the boy
that can stand an all days drive and
if necessary return on the following
day There are 48 horses owned
in the first ward and all are equally
as good as the average roadsters.

Editor Sollenberger of the Sha-

gize for all mistakes made in all our
former issues, and say they were
inexcusable, as all an editor has to
do is to hunt news and clean the
rollers and set type and sweep the
floor and pen short items and make
the paste and talk to visitors and
distribute type and carry water and
saw wood and read the proofs and
correct the mistakes and hunt the
shears to write editorials and dodge
the bills and dun delinquents and
take cussings from the whole force
and tell our subscribers we need
money. We say we have no bust
ness to make mistakes while attend
ing to these little matters and get
ting our living on gropher-tail soup
favored with imagination, and
wearing old shoes and no collar and

worth sl.25 year anyhow and that
he could make a better one with his
eyes shut"

There seems to be little going on

of the marvellous cure of Miss B,
the high contralto singer, who has
long suffered from a severe throat
or bronchial affection, superinduced
by Catarrh in the Head, and who
has been perfectly cured by the
use of DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy,
coupled with the use of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. For
all bronchial, throat and lung affec-
tions, and lingering coughs, it is an
unequaled remedy. When compli-
Gated with Chronic Nasal Catarrh,
it's use should be coupled with the
use of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
