Lecture Course.

1t begins to look as if the patrons of
the Lecture Course were not so anxious
for its continuance after all, as not
more than third enough names have
yet been sent in, though the time is
more than half gone.
From the $40 now in the treasury
some argue that there is no risk any
way, and therefore no need of waiting
for names. To all such we would say
that all but $l4 80 of that amount was
left over from the first year, when it
will be remembered that one of the en-
tertainments was given by home talent,
thus saving quite an amount, and be-
sides a committee of 1S ladies canvassed
the entire community for season tickets
For the final concert this year 81 single
tickets were sold, and had the evening
been stormy and the number cut down
to the usual figure, the Course would
not have quite paid for itself We make
this statement, that our patrons may
know on how close "A margin we did
business this year, and how necessary
it is to know something near the num-
Der of season tickets we can sell, be-
fore deciding upon the expense of our
Course. As we stated before, our con-
tracts must be made in the summer.
Do not think, as one gentleman did,
who said, "Why, | supposed you'd know
| wanted ticketsw for we shall take moth
ing for granted Ifyou are sure you want
tickets, why not send i'm names and let
the ladies know what they have to de-
pend on? If many are not sure, then
the ladies cannot safely undertake u
Lecture Course.
To the many inquiries about reserved
seats we would reply that an oppor-
tunity for selecting them will be given
before each entertainment

Obituary..

One by one the pioneers of Van Buren,
county are passing away, and the last
one to respond to the final summons
was A. S. Downing, father of Decatur
Downing.
Grandpa Dow ning," as he was
familiarly called, had resided in Almena
for something like half century, and
being genial Christian gentleman, had
won for himself the love and esteem of
a large circle of friends.
Having reached the advanced age of
SO years, he had been in feeble health
for some time, confined to his bed for
the past nine weeks, and was ready and
waiting for the call to call to "come up
higher"
His death occurred on Friday, May 6,
and the funeral was held at the house
on Sunday, the services being conducted
by Rev Brooks, his former pastor.
His faithful wife, thus left to tread
life's western slope alone, has the
sympathy of the community.
The sudden death on Sunday of
George VanSlyke, a young man from
Kalamazoo who last January entered
the employ of Henry Sh@fer, shows
how easily blood poisoning is produced,
and should prove warning to all.
1t seems that this young man had a
small pimple on the side of his nose
which he opened with brass pin; and,
though this in itself was q careless act,
yet it is probable that the real source
of the poisoning was the subsequent
rubbing of it with the fingers after caring
for horse which had bad sore on the
leg. Whatever the cause, blood poison
ing soon resulted and he returned to
Kalamazoo to die horrible death, cut
off in the hey-day of youth.

School Items.

Blanche Engle has been obliged to
leave school on account of poor health.
Miss Smith is rejoicing over the eth
grade record that shows not one alb
sent Or tardy mark for the month of
April.
Twelve pupils of the 9th grade passed
on the arithmetic questions used at the
recent Teachers Examination.
One of the 7th grade boys is now an
honorary O. member of the high school.
He was not promoted on account of
mental attainments.
The pupils of the 4th and 5th grades
had May party at Ackley Brook last
Saturday. The day was rather unfa
vorable, but not sufficiently SO to damp
EN- the ardor of the participants. Some
time was devoted to games and gather
ing wild flowers, but of course eating
dinner was the most important part of
the program.
One of the little tots was asked the
other day if she liked TO go to school;
raising her big blue eyes to the face of
the questioner, she replied with great
earnestness, Eyes, awfully." We are
glad to note that this is the universal
testimony of the primary pupils.
The other teachers are anxious TO
know what witchery Miss Wilson exer-
cises over her plants that her windows
should be filled with flowers, while the
rest of them are favored with blossom
here and there.
Next Friday in the high school the
afternoon will be devoted to the rendi-
