Ed. Register-Wm. O'Neil of Des
Arc was in our town one day of last
week with Irving Hackworth in charge.
We don't know the nature of the
charge against Irving, but we are sor.
~ for him, as he is now quite gentle.
manly in his manners and very much
settled in his behavior, and we are
sorry that he must be prosecuted now
for the past, when his reformation
seems to be so complete.
The work train crew, lately sta
toned at this place, were an excep-
tionally quiet and gentlemanly set OF
men, and we were sorry to see them
leave.
The school meeting here was very
we'll attended. especially from the Sa-
bula end of the district. Among the
number from Sabula were w. j. Cole
man, VIM. Willet, Hodges and Demp-
sey. They desired a division of the
district, which was made with but one
dissenting vote. giving them the two
northern tiers of sections, with which
they hoped by securing some territory
from the two adjoining districts, to
form a new district at Sabula. We
have not learned whether they sue
ceede6 or not.
Some fellows threw rocks at Rob't
Dunn a few nights ago, as he was
quietly vending his way home from
town, and Mr.. Dunn fired couple OF
shots at them from his revolver. which
dispelled their courage and made them
think of urgent business in another
part of town.
Sam Hopkins was in town few days
lately, looking after his property. 1t
is rumored that combined effort is to
be made to open the mine on his place.
We wish them success.
Rob't Dunn received specimen OF
green goods lately, The specimen is
of course a genuine greenback, and
only sent as a bait, as those fellows
are too smart to send out counterfeit
money. But that is the only green
goods the dealer has got. He expects
the buyer to be green enough to fur
nish the remainder of the green neces-
sary to carry out the transaction.
Keep the specimens, Mr.. Dunn, but
don't try to get any more, for The next
will be brown paper or some other
substance of as little value.
DIR. Talbot of Centreville has decided
to settle here. He is said to be good
doctor, and an Intelligent, Christian
gentleman. We wish him success,
but of course we don't anyone wish
him ill-health.
The force on the section here was
increased to eight men, which is a
right respectable crew
John Brewer, in the company OF DIR.
Miner of Lesterville, will leave for st.
Louis tonight, to consult specialist
on his case, and. If necessary, have an
operation performed. Hope he may
he cured. MURPHY.

Ed. RegtSter. as your
paper is looked upon as district
paper and not country paper, l will
offer you few items from this point.
There are many public matters now
filling the periodicals. of the country
and attracting the personal attention OF
the daily readers-both of political
and social nature. To keep up with
the doings of Congress. Senate, and
the huge vetoes of Grover, would call
a man from his business and give him
plenty to do, plus the services of half a
dozen clerks, and to say nothing OF
willie" and Madeline's s'fracas" So
we will confine our items to things
near us.
Geographically speaking, we are
away above you folks, and just at
present we are sorry for it, for the
late cold weather has ruined the fruit,
from berries to apples, and certainly
done great damage to wheat; in fact,
all the wheat that had jointed was
killed. while the Oat crop is dreadful
ly set back, too.
The county candidates are lowering
near us; each has his tale OF woe
and efficiency for Office work to
tell US; but let me tell you, for once
and always, the people of Iron township
in the county of St. Francois, are sick
of keeping men in Office a lifetime,
and the results of the coming primary
will prove this assertion. The work
ings of the courthouse ring at the
county seat is wheel, and the voters
are finding it out very rapidly. ''Yel-
low dog" Democracy is fast fading,
and if one of them goes through the
primary seive. we will put before him
one with finer meshes to look at in the
general election in November.
Our municipal election was held last
Tuesday, and Frederick Oehler Repub-
lican) was elected Mayor; j. L. Cliff
ford (Republican) received II votes for
Police Judge, against d. l.. Rivers
Oemocrat), who received 21; U. S.
Ramsy (Republican) received IS votes,
against VIM. Adkins DEMOCRACY, who
received 144; August Block was elected
Marshal against VIM. Murphy and
Sam Painter. The election resulted
in such general good feeling that
the boys had bonfire that night.
There is rumor that lady of
your city will soon take charge of the
City Hotel at this place.
The members of the Baptist church
baptized several newsmembers near
town last Sunday in the afternoon.
We understand that a meeting of
the physicians of a few neighboring
counties will assemble at DR.. Norwine's
Office this week, for the purpose of Or
ganizing S. E. Surgical Society.
DIR. j. l.. Eaton was here Sunday,
smiling over his excellent chances for
filling the position of Railroad Com
missioner for the next six years. The
DR.. is clever, good man, and knows
whereof he smiles.
There seems to be no prospect for
the Touring mill at this
place by Mr.. Boss, and we would be
very glad to see some other come and
rebuild Ills fine location for a mill
and should not longer lay idle.
Mrs. c. T. Manter and daughter,
Miss Alice, have just returned from

A violin duet by Mr.. and Miss Heine, Nearer

i~sfaction. Miss Heine's singing was much ap-
preciated but the accomplishments and Mrs.
Heine's playing on the piano generally were
spoiled for want of a suitable instrument. We
sadly want here a good public hall and in'that
hall a good concert piano. Mr.. Rider gave
