GREAT day is near at hand for
Gleua. 1t is the Sd of June, when
thl unveiling of the Grant Monu-
mOt is to take place, Hon. Chauncey
NJ. M.Depew, of New York, will be
ortor of the day, a guarantee of its
prNlng one of the most souI.stirring
an patriotic events in the history
ofthat aged little city. Mr.. Depew's
fame as an orator is familiar in
nerly every household in the land,
ant the magnetism Of it is sure to
draw a tremendous throng. Gov
Fitr, of Illinois, and Mrs. Grant
win her son and daughter, have
als' agreed to be present.
FREQUENTLY at this season Of
the year the good housewives of
finland other cities are summoned
to he door by the knocking of
traps, crippled probably in some
wa, who beg for cash to assist them
Though life. Incariable if the lady
has dime or quarter the beggar
get it, and he goes off chuckIing.
In his way many dollars can be
gathered in a day, much more really
thai the average man realizes. Only
thisweek a stranger canvassed this
city and the roll Of bills and pocket
of ilver which he acoideudly dis.
playd, was proof that it is not
alwys a charitable act to give to
suc1parties.

lastbne heard of as having honor
besuwed upon him is Edwin j.
Ployman, who was elected as alder
man for the 3lst ward of Chicago,
at tie late election, and as a stal wart
Republican. Itis assured us through
a leliable source, however, that no
m.tter what ticket Eds name might

have carried him through. His old
frbnds here will be pleased to learn
ofhis progress in life.
