of the Chicago Ophthalmic College
and Hospital, will visit Worthington

headache, &c. had better consult him
at once.
!. -Liveryman Mccartney, Of Worth
ington, drove over to the Metropolis
Monday. Mac. lisa jolly good fellow,
keeps one of the best equipped liver
les west Of the big river, has staid,
dignified but gentlemanly partner, in
the person Of Walter Aagaard, and is
all right, but we can't fargive him
for introducing us to No. -, and
then cutting the time so short. See
you later, gentlemen-Adrian Guar

The Okabena Guards wish to
heartily thank all who aided in max
ing their entertainment a grand sue
cess, and especially do they wish to
thank Captain Burnell for valuable
services rendered on this and other
occasions; Mrs. Lowe for making the
ice cream; the band boys for. their
fine music; the G. A. R. post for the
hall and w. R. G. for the use of their
dishes; the newspapers for locals and
the Herald for printing bills and the
citizens of Worthington for their lib
eral patronage. By order Committee.
The ADVANCES silver tongued or
ator, Mr.. Bakersfield expects toaddress
the people Of Ellsworth on July 4.
This speech will be the effort of his
life. After he appears on the rostrum
there,w will be no more use for such
men as Watterson, and when obliv-
ions solemn shroud shall have been
wrapped around them, his name will
adorn the historic page as long as
liberty is sweet and oppression bitter.
The ADVANCE feels proud of it's young
representative and assures the people
of Ellsworth a patriotic and love in
spring address.
These beautiful moonlight even
ings induce many lovers" and others,
too, to partake of the pleasure afford
by boat ride on the placid surface
of the West Okabena and many are
the love-sick scenes presented to the
view of those who happen to stroll in
the vicinity of that pleasure resort.
The reader perhaps imagines that we
are going to describe scene that our
suburban representative "took in"
last evening, but guess it will keep,
and then if we mention the matter
perhaps we would lose the printing
Of some wedding stationery. ~.
y II. H. storrs and wife, of sibley,
were in town Tuesday the guests of
the Burnells and Blossoms, and de-
parted on the afternoon train for
Adrian where they will visit with J.
H. Sipes and family. Mr.. Storrs says
sibley people are looking foryard to
the arrival Of the Okabena Guards
with pleasure. And we'll they may,
because there is not another town in
the state that can boast of SO many
handsome young ladies as Worthing-
ton-and in organizing the Okabena
Guards Capt Burnell selected forty
Of the prettiest he could find.
-Tramps are getting to be very
nervy in this city and it is high time
that something was done to rid the
village of it's army of buns. The
majority of them are not looking for
work-they wouldn't work if golden
opportunities presented themselves.
.
They prefer to secure their living by
frightning timid women and imposing
upon generous public. Chief of
Police Gibson informed us that on
Tuesday morning one of these worth
less wretches appeared at the back
door of the Allen home on Fourth
avenue and demanded something to
eat. He used indecent language,
and insisted that his orders be obeyed
without any loss of time: When
tramps become so bold that they find
it unnecessary to make their wants
known in gentlemanly manner it is
time to bring forth the ball and chain.
We spent portion of two days
at the reunion in Worthington last
week, and a royal good time, we had,
too. Space forbids a write-up. of
what we saw and heard, but can say
that the people of Worthington did
