"A Free Art Exhibition.

Next wednesday evening the Congrega-
tional Social Union will give supper and
free art exhibition and sale in the Congre-
gational church.
Some time ago the Ladies' Home Journal
offered two hundred and fifty sets of pic.
lures. hfty pictures comprising set, to the
church organizations first applying for the
same. The Journal had paid large sums of
money to celebrated artists all over the
world-to some as high as six thousand dol
lars an illustration-for the privilege of re-
producing their work in the magazine.
Copies were made of these pictures which
were arranged in sets, and distributed among
two hundred and fifty churches throughout
the United States.
These pictures are not advertisements of
the magazine The name only appears upon
only few of them, and then most indis-
tinctly showing that they are copyrighted.
However, 1t is great advertisement for the
magazine, because in larger cities where the
exhibition and sale have been held, thous-
ands of people have come to see and pur-
chase these fine works of art.
The ladies are indeed fortunate in secur-
ing one of this limited number of sets, and
1t far exceeds their expectations. The pic
lures are copies of the original works of
such artists as g. ID. Gibson, Albert Lynch,
f. q. Small, w. l.. Taylor, Edwin Abbey,
and many other, and are characterized by
sincerity, simple treatment and admirable
technique. They have also the quality
which is higher than technique, namely,
style, and consequently charm. They are
of desirable sizes and mounted OH Bristol
board, ready for framing.
1t is to be regretted that only one each of
these gems can be obtained, but in order
that every one may have an equal chance OF
selection, none of the pictures will be sold
until seven o'clock Wednesday evening.
They will, however, be on exhibition all
Wednesday afternoon. 1t certainly is fine
chance to secure some rare pictures at as
tonishingly low prices.
Imagine fifty pictures full of interest in
themselves ana all the WORKS or fOrebiOS
artists and illustrators of the world, and yor
may arrive at some idea of the extent anc
attractiveness of the exhibition.
The supper will be served in the dinine
room of the Congregational church from
five to eight o'clock. Price for supper, II
cents. This is under the direction Of th'
refreshmeAt committee of which Mrs. q. d
Stewart is chairman.
The art exhibition and sale will be hell
in the church parlors under the direction o
the entertainment committee, of whicl
Mrs. Albert Todd is chairman.
Every one is cordially invited to the sup
per and also to the free art exhibition an,
sale. Remember the date, Wedn esday
Jan. 26, 1898.

The Court House Question.

The question of building new court house
which is soon to come before the voters Of
this county, may be said to be the question
of the hour.
| That we need new building of this sort Is
an undeniable fact. That we are prepared
to build 1t at Corunna and during the COM
ing year, are questions not so positive in
character.
| So far as this bailiwlck is concerned be-
twlxt our bridge tax, catastrophe tax and
drain tax, we have about all we care to
shoulder just now. SIM other year we will
entertain the idea with ease, perhaps, but
| just now it seems like crowding the mourn
ers somewhat, and hurrying up the funeral.
Further, when we really come to vote on
the question, the amount voted for that pur-
pose should be more than simply an enter
ing wedge to what will follow, to complete
the structure. Forty thousand dollars will
erect something superior to some court
houses in this State, but not many, and 1t
would be we'll to have the voters under
stand what sort of rookery can be built
for that sum, and have diagrams made of
the house wherein they expect to squander
money, and that the lawyers can ''view the
ground where they must shortly lie."
Again, the question of location should
be submitted simultaneously, or nearly so,
for many man who might be willing to be
taxed for such building in one locality,
might vote mo" as to having 1t built free of
expense to the county on another site, tho
there is practically no difference betwixt no
mill by dam site, and no dam by mill
site. Voters will expect to be ch00sers.
1t is barely possible, furthermore, that
some one of our cities may after little
when they get their second wind-be able
to assume the responsibility of such an un-
dertaking, or, uniting together, fix upon
some middle ground for site and erect
something between them. Or, Durand,
which seems to be forging ahead, may con.
clude to add to their common stock of in
debtedness trifle more and give us some
thing in the court house line that will be q
model of excellence, and for us 1t will be
about as conveniently located as where it /:
now.
Finally, If no other locality proposes to dC
anything, it is safe to promise that Laings
burg will come to the rescue and put up no
only court house but all the balance o
the buildings necessary for luxurious

a little matter uf fifty or sixty thousand dol
lars wouldn't worry us very much, as com
pared with the advantages to be obtained.

the very best medicine for restoring the tired
out nervous system to healthy vigor is
Electric Bitters. This medicine Is purely
vegetable, acts by giving tone to the nerve
centres In the stomach, gently stimulates
the Liver and Kidneys, and aids these organs
in throwing off impurities in the blood.
Electric Bitters improves the appetite. aids
digestion. and is pronounced by those who
have tried 1t as the very best bloodspurifier
and nerve tonic. Try It. Sold tor SOC or

ARG0NUTA'S CAPTURE,

KEY WEST. FLA. May The cruiser
MarDlehedd is bringing 800 the Spanish
steamer Argouuta. captured OF the south
coast Of Cuba last Friday. The Argo-
nuta was bound for Havana and had on
board a colonel of the Spanish army a
surgeon six officers and three non-com-
missioned officers. The auxiliary cruiser
Eagle. 20 transformed yacht was scouting
along tho southern coast of Cuba near
Ceinfueeos. when she sighted the Argo-
nuta and started bon pursuit she was
fired upon from the shore, but continued
the chase and drove The big steamer
along the coast toward the Marblehead
and the Nashville mo which the Span
lard almost ran. They put q couple 81
shots across her bows and she quickly
hove to and surrendered. The Nashville
took the Spaniards on board as prisoners
OF war and brought them I'm.
The Spanish officers on the Argonuta
we're Colonel Coriio. of the Third span
ish cavalry. his first lieutenant, surgeon
major. seven other lieuttnants ana ten
privates and on-commissioned olncers.
All were held as prisoners of war
The steamer also carried large cargo
of arms and Mauser ammunition.
ARRANGEMENTS were then made TO trans
fer the passengers and non-combatants
10 the shore. Women and children were
placed in the FIRST boat and under cover
of a Tag OF truce were soon bound toward
the entrance to Cienfugos A second
crew took tho other passengers and land
cd them about 1910 O'Clock. The Eagle
hoisted n E-smal conveying the intelli-
gence that she had been frRi upon by
Spanish boats coming ont Of The river.
The Eagle Immediately returned the fire
with her six-pounder and held her ground
until the Marblehead came up. Botr yes
sells then fred broadside after broadside
up the entrance 20 the river. The boats
coming down were two torpedo boats and
one torpedo boat DESTROYER.
After twenty minutes firing by the
Eagle. the last two Of which were par
ticipated I'm by the Marblehead, the
Spanish boats ceased firing. II is con-
sidered probable that they were dam
aged.
Ii is said that the report that the
sailor. Eaglesia. Of the Puritan had been
tried by court-martial and sentenced TO
he shot. was made ont of whole cloth.
The sailor. however. had made threats.
