No. Ma, 1 don't need a new dolly,
l love my old one so;
She came from the Conge's doll sale,
Just a year ago, you know.
But think she needs some new dresses,
Her old ones are worn and frayed;
have heard that the Conge's this year
Will have some ready made.
So please, Ma, don't get a new dolly,
My family is such a care now;
But get my old dolly new dresses,
She noeds a nice jacket, also.
There's no style left in her bonnet,
A cap would look nicer Pm sure.
Please go to the Conge's sale, Ma.
And get what my dolly needs there.

today (Monday).
Harry Beauman of Tunnel Hill was
caller on Vienna friends Sunday
evening.
A distressing accident occurred
Sunday night on the Illinois Central
track between Simpson and Grants
burg, about nine miles east of Vienna.
Marley Miller aged 1G years, and a
young man named Bowman, about
two years older than Miller, had
spent Sunday at Simpson, and to.
wards midnight had started to WALTZ
down the Illinois Central track to
their home in Grantsburg. When
about two miles from Grantsburg,
they sat down at a road crossing and
fell asleep. Some time during the
night an engine and tender made the
trip from Parker City to Brookport.
and it is supposed to have hit the
boys. Young Bowman, after regain.
ing consciousness, found that one Of
his legs was so badly mangled chat he
could not move; and saw the body OF
his friend lying several rods below
him, The injured boy began calling
for help, and shortly after daylight
his cries were heard by man named
Russell, who lived about half milo
from the scene of the accident. When
found Bowman was still conscious,
and when the mornipg passenger
came along the dead ana injured were
taken to Grantsburg, The Miller boy
is supposed to have been killed in
stantly, as his head was horribly
crushed, and one leg and one arm cut
off. Bowman had one leg so badly
mangled that amputation Is necessary
Just below the hip, and the chances
FOR life are against him. Marley Mil
Ter was son of William Miller, and
Bowman a son of I. w. Bowman,
both residents of Gfantsburg. Cor.
oner Hood held an inquest, and rem
dered a verdict that the Miller boy
met his death as the result of his own
carelessness. This makes the second
accident of this kind in Johnson coun
ty within the past two years, and il
seems that such occurrences might
be avoided by little bit of fore
thought.

o'conneIr. wonderful ora,ory.

Daniel O'Connell, the Irish orator.
spoke in Covent Garden, London, many
years ago, and John Coleman. an old
English actor pictured him as follows:
''The audience hung spellbound on the
words of the great orator HIS reso-
nant and magnificent voice. favored
with its rich Eibernian accent, held
both soul and sense captive. As for
me, my Celtic blood took fire, my heart
throbbed with passionate indignation
or melted into tears as he dwelt upon
the wrongs of my beloved country.
Never, surely, was such q born orator.
Stern men cried one moment and
laughed the next. Strange to say, they
never laughed in the wrong place,
though once at least he afforded them
n unique opportunity. As he approach
ed the end of his Grafton. carried away
by his theme, he took his wig off "a
brown 'jazeyl. put 1t in his hat and
mopped his beautiful bald brow with
great flaming crimson bandanna, The
action appeared so natural and appro-
pirate that no one seemed TO think ii
absurd or even homogeneous"
