The Pioneer extends its sympathy to the family and friends of the deceased. The bright sun of to-day has melted tho snow considerable. A few more such days will soon drive away all traces of the recent storm. Regular mail service went into effect on the C.

K. west of Fairbury, yesterday morning. This arrangement will give us two daily mails from the east, as wo get the usual daily mail from the Mo. Fac. via Gaylord.

The Peoples Theatre company will render the society comedy entitled, "Confusion, or Naval Engagement." As the weather has moderated considerably, the tabernacle will probably be filled with people. Notwithstanding the fact that all papers predicted the death of the daily Pioneer within a. few weeks after it started. Yet the fact remains that it nas now run nearly thrae months, and is gaining in popularity every day. It is a "slayer." O.

Williams, of Stuart, had eighty acres of corn this year from which he gathered 3,100 bushels of good, sound corn. Ben was extremely lucky this year and we are glad to learn that, there was at least one good cornfield in Smith county this year.

The officers of the Smith County Agricultural society were arrested to-day upon indictments found.by the recent Jury for permitting gambling on the fair grounds during the years of 1886 and 7. They have given bonds for their appearance at the next term of court.

This seems to us to be the most trivial matter that coull have been allowed to occupy the minds of the Grand Jury. It will probably amount to nothing but another bill of expense t6 the county. A Visit to Lebanon. Taking advantage of the fact that the passenger, train going east yesterday morning was about: four hours late, so that it became possible to take the train after daylight, a representative of this paper visited Lebanon yesterUi.y and spent the day among tho enterprising people of that lively little city wh ich has sprung up so quickly in tho eastern part, of our county. In conversation with its citizens we learn that several new buildings will be erected in the spring and the probabilities are that the boom inaugurated last fall in that town Will be continued as soon as the weather will permit.
