say that over half of our population has
had the prevailing desease.
The Ellinwood roller mills sent car
load of first grade donr to London,
England, this week. Capt. Grant in
forms us that Ellinwood is fast coming
to the front in good hard wheat flour.
Immigration into our state has al
ready commenced and this year prom
ises to be the greatest year for lmmi
grafton we have ever known: Now
only to do away with prohibition and
our state would be the garden spot of
the United States.
Joe Thrap, who has been engineer at
the roller mills in this city for several
years, left here Friday. Mr.. John

as head engineer, which position he
held a number of years before, and the
people will be glad to see him again.

pleasant winter.
We understand that Knights of
| Pythias Lodge will be instituted here

4 sidetrack is being put in on the
Mo. Pacific midway between Hoising-
ton and Great Bend.
Quite large proportion of the peo-
pie of the town are fast in the clutches

| One of the most pleasant events of
this winter, and the event of the last
day of the year ''S9,'' was the cele-
bration of the fifteenth anniversary of
the marriage of our eStimable friends,
Mr.. and Mrs. j. Howard. Mr.. and
Mrs. Howard were the recipients of
many valuable and handsome presents
which plainly told of the high estima-
ton our friends are held by the people
of HOisington. The reception was one of
the most elaborate affairs this city has
ever seen. The arrangements were per-
feet in every detail. The writer of
this extends best wishes to the happy
couple.

friends in the United States that he is
socially tabooed at Port au Prince. His
salary as Minister to Hayti as some
thing. of course, but socially he is just
as badly off as if he had remained in
Washington with Ben Harrison and
the rest of the republicans.

On LAST Sunday, the 18th inst, a
regular cyclone visited several places
in Kentucky, Missouri, and other
states. AT Wyckliff and Mascow,
KY, great number of houses were
blown down and numbers of people
were killed and wounded. At Clinton
nine persons were killed and numerous
houses torn into kindling wood. The
cyclone struck st. Louis, also, and blew
down many houses. At Cooksville,
Ills, great damage was also done by
the devastator. Tremendous gales
are reported the same day at Buffalo,
and Rochester, N. Y, and at Cleveland
and Dayton, Ohio.

MR.. PARNELL.

The great leader of the Irish Ma.
t'onal's's is at present engaging u
great deal Of attention, both in Eng>
land and this country. He has proven
himself patriot. and a gia,t in po.
hncal warfare; and it therefore
follows. as 4 matter Of fact, just at
this political juno,ure in his history,
that everybody is discussing the rros
and cons OF his future life heth r
he should gracefully retire from the
leadership OF his party, or retain the
reins he has so long and SO skillfully
manipulated for the benef. of his
country. That his services have been
invaluable is universally conceded.
upo" assuming the leadership, the
Irish party were hut a mere nonen,ity
in the British Parliament. Their very
existence was ignored by the great
political pa'ti-s, aud they really had
TO voice whatever in the government
OF their own cherished land. Upon
insisting for the FIGHTING of Ireland's
woes and the better government OF
the country, they have often been
rewarded with a f.lon's cell for their
trouble. They were thus in desperate
straits. Ireland !snvuished at their
feet, and their representatives in Par
lament could render them no sssis, |
*"co. 1t was in this sorry plight that
Mr.. Parnell formed his following into
compact whole, and voted with the
party that was likely to be of most
service To the Irish cause. In this
way TIE Irish Natio"xlis's repeatedly
"tis'-d British legislation, and a. las,
compelled recognition of their rights.

FAIRBANKS NEW STORE.

At the last meeting of the directors
of E. & L Fairbanks & Co it was
decided to build a new dry goods
store on the site of the old Fletcher
store on Main street The present.
wooden building will be wholly or
partially replaced by a two or three
story brick block 115 feet deep by 80
feet front. The boarding house next
to this property will be moved back
about 80 feet and the store will stand
more in line with the st. Johnsburv
house and the other buildings above
on Main street than is the present
structure The first floor will be on
a level with the ground and the base
ment will be used as general store
room, while the first and second
stories will be devoted entirely to
saleSroOms One of the features OF
the store will be a carpet room in the
front of the second floor 20 by 30
feet, making it one of the finest car
pet rooms in New England outside OF
Boston. 1t is the intention of the
directors to introduce many new
features into the store and to make
it the largest and best-stocked mer-
camille establishment in the state
Work will be commenced on the new
building this month and pushed rap
idly forward until it is completed.

TWO SUCCESSFUL CONCERTS.

The entertainment in the Y. M. C..
A. members course Tuesday night
was the best attended so far in this
course. The Carol quartet with Miss
Ina Howe, pianist, occupied the first
half of the program with seven ac-
ceptable selections, the humorous
song, "There was boy" receiving a
hearty encore. After the concert the
Peake sisters from Alaska arrived
and were introduced to the audience
by their leader, Miss Carrie Wood
ruff. Comic songs and recitations
were rendered by the girls to the
great delight of the audience.
The concert given last Thursday
evening in Y. NJ c. A. hall under the
auspices of st. Margaret's guild OF
St. Andrews church was a very sue
cessful one Vocal music was render
ed by the Cecilian quartet who ap-
peared three times and were twice
encored. Miss Emma Shufelt re-
ceived merited encore after her song,
"The Kingdom of love" b. Frank
Harris rendered an acceptable piano
solo and Mrs. w. S. Boynton and
Miss Alice Hall a pleasing piano duet.
The Monarch banjo and guitar club
made their first appearance in st.
Johnsbury at this concert and were
enthusiastically received. This club
consists of George II. Frost, leader,
E. E. Piper and David E. Hartman,
banJos, A. NJ. Goodrich and Harry

LAKE CHA MPLA IN AND ITS SHORES

This is the title of a new book by
w. H. H. Murray of Adirondack
fame. 1t is both history and trib-
ute to the lake and its shores, intend
ed for the convenience of pleasure
seekers and also for popularizing the
picturesque and brilliant historical
incidents with which the name of the
lake will forever be associated. The
main subject is prefaced by prepar-
atory chapter on "Outdoor Life. }"
In this the writer presents a sensible
plea for more study of nature, more
outdoor life for better physical and
also mental development. In this
way too, he thinks, much of the So
called American vice, ''artifice, 8"
would be avoided. Mankind could
not but be truer to itself and to the
world. In the rest of the book Mr..
plain's discovery of the lake and its
surrounding forests; and in pic
tureSque manner describes the pleas
ures of hunting, fishing, and yacht
ing. He also mentions all the points
of interest, the towns within easy
reach, and the drives into the adj
joining country. The publication of
this book will call public attention
not only to the scenic loveliness of the
lake, but, to what is of far greater
Importance, its close and noble con-
nection with the liberty and civiliza-
ton of our great country. 1t is just
the book to have with one on a va
cation trip. 1t is for sale by F. o.
