The w. r. c. Entertainment.

1t has been suggested to the different
Women's organizations in this city,
that if we really want (as we assuredly
do)a new city hall, both safe and COM
modious, that they will have to "set
the ball rolling" The w. r. c. had
a very interesting exercise on Mem
orial day but, although the city hall
was packed to suffocation a very large
number of people could not see it, for
want of even standing room-so the
corps was asked to repeat it, and have
decided to give it as New City
Hall Benefit the last week in June.
Added to this entertainment will
be both fine vocal and instrumental
music, by our best talent as well as in
teresting recitations. So enjoy your
selves and encourage the good work
by buying tickets from the children
who will solicit you.

How to Succeed.

This is great problem of life which
few satisfactorily solve. Some fail be-
cause Of poor health, others want of
luck, but the majority from deficient
grit-want of nerve. They are ner-
vous, irresolute. chsngeable, easily get
the blues and stake the spirits down
to keep the spirits up" thus wasting
money, time, opportunity and nerve
force. There is nothing like the Re.

great specialist, DR.. Miles, to cure all
nervous diseases, as headache, the

ness, neuralgia, st. Vitus dance, fits,
and hysteria. Trial bottles and fine

Raging Waters.

haglnS waters.
The heavy rain falls of Monday
night and Tuesday afternoon caused
great freshets in the Pecatonica
branches. High water on the track
prevented the running of trains be-
tween Darlington and Mineral Point
from Tuesday morning until Wednes-
day morning at $50, when a train
arrived with passengers and mail. No
damage, we believe, was done to the
track on the main line; but many
bridges and many miles track were
washed out between Belmont and Cal
anime. The Darlington Journal is
sued on Wednesday, says:
"High water on the Pecatonica has
interfered with businesf somewhat this
week, and wrought considerable dam
age by overflowing meadow lands and
gardens on low ground. Last night
the water flooded every cellar in the
the Journals, and covered all the
ground between the railroad and the
river south of Main street. The old
Eckerson house, occupied by Marion
Baker, and the Roarig house and
shops, formerly owned by Thomas
Page, were surrounded by water two
or three feet deep. Both lumber yards
were flooded, but no great damage
was sustained. The water began to
subside at four o'clock this morning
and has been gradually falling since.
1t is probable that it will be confined
within the river banks by tomorrow
morning. Several hundred yards Of
the railroad track near Calamine were
washed out, and the regular running
of trains was interfered with-yester-
day mornings passenger from Mineral
Point, which should have been In
Darlington at 7:12, not reaching here
until late in the afternoon"
