Editor Frank Wagner of the Bloom
ington Record, went to Chicago yester-
day to consult a specialist concerning
the advisability of having sergical
operation performed. Some two years
ago while Mr.. Wagner was working on
the HERALD. he fell and received an
injury to the hip and spine that has
given him much serious trouble for
some time and which has proved too
obstinate to yield to medical treatment.
The sympathy of large number of
friends attends him in his Chicago visit
with the heart wish that he may find
speedy relief and permanent recovery
! through treatment received there.
Every reader Of the HERALD. this
week is requested to look on the Sth
page and to read all the advertisements.
Now don't miss any of them, but peruse
them carefully and when you have read
j. Nathan & Sons, just read it over
again, and you Will undoubtedly be
fully convinced that they can substan-

himself of genuine pleasure. They

store.
w. I. Scott, of Boscobel, the efficient
and liberal chairman of the Soldiers
Relief committee, has been placed in an
embarrassing position, so we are in
formed, by reason of an erroneous
statement in the proceedings of the
County Board, published by the HER
} AID In the report of the committee
, on general CLAIMS will be found the fol-
. lowing: "W. L. Scott, services on
soldiers relief committee, S33 76; in
another place, preceding this claim, is
one that should read: "W. Il. Scott.

house, $146.16. Unfortunately it was
set up the same as the former one men

proof reading was allowed to appear in

We were not more surprised than
pleased to see our old time friend, Mar
tin Mogan Esq, ON the streets last Sat
urday. Ii seemed like old times again
to greet him and talk over those long
winter evenings when good many of
us played at parlor croquet with Delos
Abrams people in their hospitable
home in Little Grant. Martin is a Ben
edect now and brings his wife here to
visit his people. Last Thanksgiving
was the date of the happy event and
the congratulations of his friends are
still in order. Since he went west MIR.
Mogan has prospered and is now en-
gagged in a thriving mercantile business
in growing Nebraska town. If he
and his bride have as much good for
tune as we desire for them, they will be
happy enough in this world.
Chas. Harvey, of this city, in COM
pany with j. Nathan. purchased forty
acres of land last summer down on
Pigeon near the old Calder mill site.
Mr.. Harvey has an eye to mining and
the land was bought for mining pur-
poses and the outcome proves that the
gentlemen made no mistake, since they
intend to put on force of ten or doz-
en- men in short time and already
have the assurance that the mines now
open will yield a good two horse load
of zinc ore per day to each hand en-
ployed. This is business, and if few
more enterprising men will take hold
of the work there is no reason why this
