NEW COUNTY ROAD.
The Report of County Judge. Gray

Judge ]. II. d. Gray left last Thursday
Tor trip up the Necannicum. and re-
turn.d on Saturday. The object of the
trip was to inspect the line of the new
county road and the requirements for
bridges. The judge reports that he found
magnificent lands in the Necannicum bot
TOMS and that the road will open UP a
fine country. There will probably be
thrse bridges, two of which will cost from
three to four hundred dollars each.
The settlers will endeavor to have a
trail opened out this y,ar. The recent
road improvement by the Seaside people
in the bottom leading from the NecanR-
cum bridge to the Elk Creek road, is a
model. Gravel from the creek was us;d
and the road Is now all right for horses
and carriages. Last year a horse would
be up to the middle, while the graveAing
now done obvlates all such trouble, and
the cost was only about $500, for the one
mile and a quarter. Several more miles
will probably be completed next year as
all are Justly proud of the work.
The county assisted the work to the ex-
tent of 800.

Altgeld Burned in Efhgy.

BLOOMINGTON, Ills, June 90
The state board of education, in
session at the state normal univer-
sity, at Normal, last evening,
passed 2 resolution abolishing the
high school department of the
model school, which has been con-
nected with the normal university
since it was founded. This action
is alleged to be the result Of a sug-
gestion from Governor Altgeld. The
action raised a storm Of indigna-
ton among the alumni pupils,
friends of the model school, and
the people OF Normal.
At midnight the bell of the Illi-
nois state normal university at
Normal began ringing violently,
and a mob OF students and citizens
assem- bled, many students wearing
black robes and masks. The mob
proceeded to the campus, where
there was an effigy Of the governor,
and proceeded to hold a mock exc
cution. After the effigy dropped,
it was burned. 1t was after ! a. m.
when the crowd ceased yelling.
