A new kind of sidewalk has just been
completed for one-hslf block, running
from Knapp & Sons machine shops to
the Wright house barn. The founda-
ton consists of crushed stone which is
covered with very fine pulverized rock,
making when dampened very hard
cement. These together with the cut
stone crossings would be a credit to any
city. The beauty of the whole affair
however. is the fact that hereafter the
city treasury will not be compelled to
sustain such heavy drafts for sidewalk
repairs.

nesday evening an incident occurred on
our streets that created good deal of
excitement for few minutes. As
Charley Speigleburg, son of Emil
Speigleburg, was driving their colt for
exercise, it became frightened and soon
was beyond the boys control and ran
away. The top of the buggy and then
the box were left at the roadside. As
they passed Reub Ward near Charley
Bells shop he gave chase and succeeded
in bringing them to standstill in front
of Gen. Calls residence. The buggy
was completely demoralized and the
boy sustained few bruises.
A few nights ago, during social
dance at the home of MIR. Brown, a
farmer living near North Andover, N.
G. McIver, for some TINA past student
at Beloit college and quite an accom-
plished young man. made use of vile
language and was invited to leave. The
request was ignored when trouble be-
gan. Young McIver played pugilist
with telling effect upon Mr.. Brown ard
served others who insisted on his de-
partufe. 1t is thought that too much
bad liquor had been imbibed resulting
in a muddled brain. He was arrested
and brought to trial before Justice l..
d. Holford at Bloomington, Tuesday,
resulting in a fine of 500 and costs or
three months in the county jail, the full
extent of the law being applied.

GoRrp nY AN ANGRY Bull.

An accident occurred last Friday that
came near costing the life of James
Taylor, a young farmer living four
miles south of town. MIR. Taylor is a
single man and lives with bis mother
and brothers and sisters on the farm,
and is about p years of age. Friday
morning he came to town and disposed
OF his bull to the stock buyers and
agreed to bring him to tewn in the
afternoon. According to the appoint
ment he started with the animal shortly
after dinner, leading him with rope
attached to ring in his nose. About
a quarter of mile from the house the
animal, true to its nature, attacked the
young man, catching him on his horns
and tossing him over the fence into an
adjoining lot, where he lay in half in
sensible state until help arrived. He
was carried home and Drs. Barber and
strong summoned. His wounds. while
serious are not necessarily fatal if in
hamation can be kept down. One of
the bulls horns penetrated his side Just
above the hip taking an upward course.
jus. passing the intestines on the outer
outer side only a flesh wound was
made. The bull was shot.

Statues In London.

Near one of the entrances OF the

are four eyesores that were once, no
doubt pretty groups of statuary. 1t

even then they were hardly recogniza-
BILE as ever having been ornamental.
And there they stand yet. blotched,
battered, scabbed scarecrows, such as
one could not match in any town in
the world. Half the statues in Lon
don look like the victims of erysipe-
las. In some the disease is more ad-
vanced than in others. Queen Anne's
was the most distressing case. The
figure OF that sovereign lady in St.
Paul's churchyard was minus its nose
when l saw it first, and remained in
that state for about ten years. And
goodness knows, a nose is a useful
member in England, in winter espe-
cially--Max O'Rell.
