Mr.. Jno. McEnary was in town Mon

Mr.. Fritzland, his neighbors are still
losing stock because of the grey wolves.
Mrs. Gentry, of Deerhead. was one
of the delegates chosen to the county

prevented from attending by sickness.
Mrs. j. w. Potes who has 80 long
been confined to the house with what
threatened to be the approach of con-

petent man, a friend to the INDEX, and
as far as possible friend to all his pa

Lyman DeGeer returned from Topeka
Monday, where he has been for several
days. He says the times are lively
there. The whole situation is one of
completely and doubt on both sides.
Though the populist house has secured
recognition, and counting contestants
had a majority, he is inclined to think
the republican organization the more
nearly legal. There is doubt no both
sides however and conservative men,
bers on both sides are ready to make
any reasonable compromise.
The way of the transgressor is hard
| as we have said before. The truth of
the statement was demonstrated yes
terday morning when Sheriff Dobson
called on Henry Bryan, Under Sheriff
Boyd on Robt. Brown and City Marsh
al Mort Updegraff on Mortimer Strong,
each at his place of business. The Off
GERS were armed with warrants, official
countenances, ct ceiera, and proceeded
to take an inventory of the stock of
fire-water etc., at the several places at
which they called. How complete this
inventory was we are unable to tell;
but they all returned goods found, and
the owners with them. The goods
consisted of bottles and kegs chiefly
branded ADheuser-B salt or some
thing else. The raid was made because
of the complaint of Mac Myers living
in the south part of the city. The par
ties were brought before police Judge
Howe. All plead guilty under the or.
dinance against keeping dives, nui-
sances, etc., and were fined . dollars
each, aud costs; and the goods were
DESTROYED.

The protracted meeting at the U. B.

The meeting resulted in some additions
to the congregation, and it is believed
that many more were almost persuaded
to be christians.
The Baptist denomination intend to
begin series OF meetings on Sunday
the 22nd day of this month in the hope
that some may turn TO the Lord. The
Baptists had intended to complete their
house of worship before Christmas but
cold weather coming on sooner than
was expected, they have been compelled
to delay plastering their church build
ing until warmer weather, so the
protracted meeting will be held in the
school house.
a few farmers from the vicinity of
Sharon went to the county seat on Sat
urday to attend the county alliance,
several others were prevented from
going by the Indictment weather. Uncle
Billy Brown and Perry Hill did not

Mount Zion and in Jerusalem" Isa xiv q;
AT that time they shall call Jerusalem the
throne of the Lord Jer. ii Il; and He will
make the evidences like Eden and her des-
erts. of Palestine like the garden of the Lord"
lisa. li3. Now in view of the foregoing scrip
lures can anyone think that God
will turn this literal earth into a huge furn-
ace. Those that believe the literal earth is to
be destroyed, generally over look the fact that
the heavens is to pass away with a great noise
and to be on fire at the same time. verse 1O-I2)
Then il these heavens and earth be literal then

would have no place to go, unless they are

will not do. They are fgureative for the

therein forever. Pisa. xxxvii %; 1.-The right

the righteous is to remain in 1.-THE land forey-

will never destroy the righteous in order to
destroy the earth. because he has promised to
answer their prayers. The Lord has de-
clared that 1.-The earth He hath given to the
children of men" Pisa. CIV Is; all the children
of men, not to a few to rent out to the others;
but instead of destroying the earth he will take
it from the landlords and give it to Abraham
and his seed the Christ and all his saints, Rom.

DAYLIGHT ROBBERY.
DR.. Llghtburn Has an Early and I'm
profitable Customer.

A bold attempt at robbery was made
at DR.. Lighlburn's drug store opposite
the Mills house about eight O'Clock yes
terdsy morning. The doctor h'd
stepped across from the store to his
residence adjoining and while engaged
in Washing his face his wife saw
Mexican go into the store.
The doctor told Mrs. Lightburn to 90
to the store and see what was wanted.
She did so and found the Mexican be-
hind the counter taking liberties with
a show case. He did not seem to be
moved by Mrs. Lightburn's appearance
but made some remark which she did
not understand and started 10 the rear
Of the store.
Just then the doctor came in and
when his wife began to explain the
situation to him the Mexican started
out, The doctor called to him and he
stopped for an instant, but only for an
instant and broke into run. The
doctor started after HIM and chased
him couple OF blocks, but the Mexican
seemed to be in better running rim
than his pursuer and soon faded from
the DOCTORS vision. He failed TO carry
anything away with him.

Out of Small Change.

The financial straits of Italy are grow
ing worse from day to day. Coin is de-
crcasing at rate as rapid as to cause
universal CONSERVATION and inconveni-
encc in trade. Storckeepers are issuing
notes payable at sight in their stores.
These notes vary in amounts from q
quarter dollar to few cents, some be-
ing rs low rs two cents. Instead of al
lowing this natural means for tiding
over the cala,nitous period to proceed
unnoticcd, the police have at some
places arrested tradesmen for infring-
ing upon the privilege of the crown by
making money. Public opinion is in
favor of allowing tradesmen TO continue
in the course. But no one can say what
the end of the police prosecutions will
be, nor how and when the calamity win
end.

QUAILS AND SNAKES.
Rather Dangerous Sport for Hunters That
Are Not Wary.

Rather Dangerous Sport for Hunters That
Are Not Wary.
A few days ago q Californian left the
big brickyard, near Anderson, for a
quail hunt along the banks of the
Sacramento river. Under a cover of
brush he discovered nice flock of
birds, but when he raised his gun to
have a shot they disappeared. He felt
satisfied that there were quite num-
Der under particular bush, and he
blazed away.
The noisy fluttering which followed
told him the result, and he ran for his
prize, and just as he was reaching out
his hand to catch a wounded quail he
was suddenly shocked to discover an
enormous rattlesnake in the line of the
bird. The man, although weighing
nearly three hundred pounds, jumped
backward six feet from the brush and
then gained his breath. He approached
the birds again, with his gun cooked
and ready for sudden shot, and learned
that the snake was dead. When he
fred at the birds he killed the snake
and six quail, although none of the
birds or the serpent were in view. The
snake had eight rattlers and button
and was three and half feet in length.

OWNED NO SOCIAL SUPERIOR.
The Early New England Farmer Not Like
His Prototype OF the Present Day.

HIS Prototype OF the Present DAY.
The first most forceful and most con-
spicuous social fact in the early New
England community, where almost
everybody was n farmer, was the level
ing of the class distinction. The soil
tiller who owned his land might have
to toll for living like serf, but the
Yale Review says he never incurred the
serfs degradation. Around him and
on the same level the great mass of the
community were his fellow farmers,
whom he never gazed upon from below,
either as a matter of social rank or
from the plane of inferior vocation.
Slightly beneath him were the class of
farm laborers-not many, when wooded
lands were cheap, nor profoundly low
cred as a class, in days when farmers
themselves interchanged services and
toiled even harder than their own field
hands. The country merchant was, I'M
less exceptionally rich, the farmers
peer, no better and no worse, in the
social scale. Above the farmer stood
only the men of the professions, usually
college graduates, including the minis
ter and the squirearchs. But these,
while they formed certain distinctive
"cult," were too few to be a very
strongly emphasized group or impress
the class distinction harshly. OF the
two most prominent, the minister, vest
ed with powers well-nigh pontifical, yet
held them not of men; and the old
country squires, under the microscope
of time and New England novels, have
obtained in our day greatly magnifed
importance which they never really
possessed. If the farmer had to wrestle
hard with his niggard soils and had
slight education and few creature COM
forts, he had, as offsets, simple wants,
social equality and an assertive man.

They Didn't Arrive, SO He Had to he En-

There is story of clergyman who
had taken temporary duty for friend,
and who had the ill-luck to injure his
false teeth during the week. The plate
was sent to the dentists for repairs, a
faithful assurance being given that it
should be duly returned by Sundays
post; but the dentist or the post proved
faithless.
With the assistance of the clerk, the
clergyman managed to stumble through
the prayers, but felt it would be useless
to attempt to preach. He therefore in
structed the clerk to make some eX-
cuse for him and dismiss the congrega-
ton"
But his feelings may be better mag
ined than described when, in the seclu-
sion of the vestry, he overheard the
clerk, in impressive tones, thus deliver
the "excuse:"
Parsons very sorry, but it is his mis-
fortune to be obligated to wear a set OF
artful teeth. They busted last Wednes-
day, and he amt got them back from
London to-day, as he was promised. I've

EVANSTON, III, June IA, 1892.
This certifies that heard Miss Addie
Murphy read last evening, and though l
have had wide experience in listening
to Evolutionary artists, l think she
stands in the very first rank by reason
of her noble simplicity, sincerity, grace
and good feeling. She has melodious
voice, admirably trained, and great
variety OF repertoire, sustaining herself
equally we'll in all her roles, ranging
from grave to gay, from lively to
severe" Best of all, one feels that in
Miss Murphy we have loyal, earnest
hearted woman as well as artist.

Prof. Robert Cumnock, on an assistant
so capable, and the young people under
her care on teacher so rare.
