Our great Mikado, virtuous man, Once owned a watch that never ran On time. Too alow or fast 'twould go, And never could lie steadied, lie vowed he'd never wear It more, And then decreed whoever wore In all Japan, from elioro to shore, A watch, (should be beheaded.

And It you've such a watch as he You'll think him riirht to ao decree. Ami You'll be right, fur he mi right And all I right, as right can be. A tinge unto the palace came. He said, "Your hastiness I blame. I bnowjwar watch ia but a botch; But try this "KOCKFORD WATCH."

1, Thompson, A. Jackmaii, A. J. Wki.su. From Coal Creek.

The Vine Creek correspondent, in last weeks issue, writes that some C'oirf Crwkcrs weie (-irciilaling a paper to get signer to a petition to locate a tow on Coal Cieek. The paper was circulated to gi 1 the expression ('fall I be people liylug in (be vicinity, the tar in ing community, that- would support a town, and succeeded in getting the signatures of about eighty-five per cent of the people. Some of those who had signed the petition to locate the town at Vine Creek, signed this Coal Creek paper also, on account, of being Induced to sign the fo' iner by misrepresentation. We claim no honor in "speaking our piece so well," because it was the truth, plain to every one, and suppressed from none. We believe that the town should be located where It will be an advantage to the whole community, not to a certain few, to the exclusion of the large majority i' those who would support a town.

Will the Vine Creek correspondent tin so kind ni to name a fanner in his community who has 'ever raised for Car load of cattle, lings or grain Have yon plenty of good water at Vine Creek What'lo the people say both north and soulh of your located town? They say, "Jive us a town on Coal Creek, where there is plenty of good water and good roads, both north nnd south, for ten Wheie wo make a town of somo prominence, that will call out good men and give us a good market. Any coming to the town from the north, to travel on a good road, must come into the valley ami come south to the northeast corner of section 8, nod from there to town on Coal Creek wold be one-half nilln on a good road to a town on Vine Creek would be two miles. All those coming from the south would have live miles extra travel with the town at Vino Creek, Halt' the support of the, town would come, from the southwest, where the best farms and farmers are located. The most of their trade will be lost to the railroad with the tow at Vino Creek. It is hard to make a success of a town in a locality where there is poor roads, bad water and a very small proportion ot farming land, hut you will find that out, we presume.

Maltby, Sec'y, Notice to hose company No. 1, there will be a meeting at Iloag Agnew office on Monday night at 8 o'clock sharp. We request all members to be nresent. for we have important busi ness. By order of Foreman, Wir.L Ciiafin The Minneapolis Improvement are selling their best lots in Fairview addition only to thoso who contract to erect houses costing not less than 000.

This is a new departure and in sures pleasant surroundings for those who build homes. Last fall was a hard one on ever greens, and the early Spring did not help them. We know of evergreens that have been living for seven and eight years in yards in tins city, and they are now dead and dry. Businessmen should use every en deavor to patronize home industry in in preference to any outside enterprises. This is especially applicable to the men who are building.

There are many opportunities where home men can receive benefits which through carelessness are neglected. Every young man who earns $50 a month ought to buy a lot and make a start of a home. The way to get a lot is to save a little money each month and pay down on it. Don't spend all your money on fine livery turnouts, and expensive dinners and gay companions. Put a little of it into the ground, after many days, it will bring you a handsome royalty.

Joseph Howard'B "Liife of Beecher." Joseph Howard, the widely known Journalist and intimate friend of Henry Ward Beecher for the past fifty years, is engaged upon a life of the great Preacher and Orator, which will no doubt be the standard work as Mr. Howard's intimate relations'with Mr. Beecher, and his justly won popularity as a writer, are an assurance of a work of peculiar interest and value. We learn the work is to bo brought out by Hubbard at an early day, nnd will no doubt be sold by subscription. St KIDDLE A IUSN.

Trustee woodward visited tho me tropolis on Monday, to hold a phort convention with the honorable board of county commissioners relating to the repairing of the bridge across the Solomon river at this point. He came home much pleased with our commissioners, having obtained five hundred dollars for the purpose of making the bridge a Bolid one, by putting an iron approach on the west side. Mr. Woodward informs us that the work will he commenced at once. He now believes what we have often that we have the best set of county officers in the state, lie thinks just as hundreds of our best citizons think of our old friend Mackenzie, that he is hard to beat as an able officer.

TalTa! Bridget. Yes, dear Bridget your excellent letter to the Messenger of last week causes our mind to wander back to our youthful days, when everything was bright and pleasant especially those angelic creatures clothed in petticoats. We remember with somo sadness the solemn face and pathetic voice of a woman of middle ae with a daughter some twelve years of age with red hair wearing No. 8 shoes, who asked us to assist her in recovering an interest in a little home she had lost, (but which she never had.) Yes, Bridget, we remember how she got our last hard earned dollar, and then skipped the country we have not forgot the goby. In conclusion Bridget, you ill never know how deeply we sympathize with tiie man that is to take you from the charmed circle of a flirt into the relationship of a wife.
