A programme of classical sacred music was presented and rendered ill manner that denoted careful train 1 ing.

Instead of infaming their passions, it has acted to the contrary: coolness has sprung up between them, fer each tells the other where he can be found, and although Marianna is not quite as large as Chicago they still are lost to each other.

 THE editor of the Marion Reform has been tackled by one of those char acter found in every country town who imagines himself better fitted to run q paper than an editor of experience. After relating his experience with one of these iends, the Reform man un- bosens himsely thusly; Things are not properly arranged in this world. Here We are, trying torun paper when we know nothing about it, whilst this great newspaper genius. who knows it all by intuition, is doing-nothing absolutely wasting mind that could astonnd and enlighten the world loaf ing around country town getting free bread from his relations. It makes us tired and sick to think of the injustice which permits us to reyel in all the luxury of a prlncely newspaper income, for which we give nothing but d few pints of sweat a day from our ignorant brow, while a brilliant energetic man IS forced to idle and fret away his life hanging around a country town, whiting dry goods boxes telling other people how to run their business and eating free grub whenever he can get it."
