It's strange, but true, that Senator
Cullom's crop Of political aspirations
does not seem to grow with exuberant
luxuriousness In Stephenson County,
Illinois, and In other counties not
too remote from Stephenson. One
Gen. Atkins, who has no serious oh.
lection to the State Treasurership up
that way, seems to be the bllghting
influence on the Cullom crop. He
says he Is In the fight against CLl.

his friends or OF the Cullom. Wulfls

Sixty seven years marked the annual

times, but receiving no response, and
thinking she was resting so quietly, he
proceeded to prepare breakfast, after
which he again failed to receive any
recognition from mother, and then it
was that the pathetic realization was
forced upon the stricken sons, that the
breath OF the eternal morning had al.
ready famed her fevered brow, and left
to children and friends only tenement
of clay, which was tenderly and lovingly
laid to rest in the Smith cemetery on
the Wednesday following her demise.

Last Sunday, April 10, Philip Lanigar
had made fifty annual revolutions round
the sun, since making his debut on life's
stage. About two hundred of his friends
and neighbors had been apprised of this
fact and took occasion to completely sur.
prise him by the enormous quantity of
viands spread before him, on his return
from Chasetown, whittier he had been
spirited by G. w. Tedrick. Ordinarially,
Philip is hard to trap, but his family
got him on this wise: They tore the
April leaf from their calendar and when
Phillip looked for the 18th of April he
saw it came on Tuesday and told his
family that his birthday was on last
Tuesday. This idea established in his
mind made the occasion doubly sur
prise to him. Phillip tried to smile
when he discovered the key to what
was transpiring, but the hood.gates of
the tear-ducts were open and the briny-
drops were seen to trickle down his
honest face.
