1887- NO. 3a Correspondence. The young folks have abandoned the play, "The Lost Mine" on account of no suitable s.cenery. There seems to be a general clamor from everybody for scenery for the halL its 0m IIP i i '4 i "'V We have before us a copy of the revived, resurected, Pomona Enicrpsise, by Mr. and Mrs.

Bell. The sheet is a 6-column, all home print folio. A large share of advertising is inserted and the local department is replete with well-written gossip that certainly recommends it to the people that place. We wish the Enterprise long life and prosper- Wonder if the Lever has heardany more news from the Texas prohibition election. It is too bad that the old man suffers so intensely and so mistakably about the complexion of that vote.

But that is not the only question we find him laboring with and at variance with the facts. We fear that the old man does n't read wlessmlmdicii. "I have used Simmons Liver Regulator for many years, having made it my only Family Medicine. My mother before me was very partial to it. It is a safe, good and reliable medl- cine for any disorder of the system, and if used in time is a great preventive of Hchnett.

Plowman shinned his flav ast week. You made us say Rev. Ways of Melvern instead of Rev Mayo as it should have been in our last and first. AVe blame the pencil as it was about worn out. Several other mistakes were also made.

"We'll do better next year." M. C. Jennings and Charles Stool-flre left last Friday with two loads of apples for western Kansas. Their limit was Marion Center or McPher-son. A Fowler has also gone with a load.

A. G. Supernaw is making hay on L. D. Hewen's farm.

Joe Gross is about to sell his fine farm to a Dodge City(Ks.) man. T. Hutchison, and little Charlie spent Sunday with Frank White and Sister north of Waverly. Another carie mill has come to town. Sorghum surely should be cheap as we now have competition in the manufacture of the same.

West Lynn and Tom Simpson are busy in their hay. Silkville intends haying until frost comes. Addison Cellar has leased the east 80 of his father-in-law, Calvin Rankin's farm and is now engaged in building a house 14x20. He will not put a cellar under the house as there will be two in it. His lease extends five or ten years at his option.

On Friday evening a number of the young folks gathered at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. F. Wil. liams to have a good time.

The evening was spent in eating watermelons, cake, grapes, and listening to music rendered by Miss Annie Plowman, organist and Wheel Truitt and MarlqKline, violinists. Emery Kline also played the organ. The Kline Bros, are splendid musicians for the practice they have had. Miss Annie Plowman left last Monday for her old home, twenty miles east of Quincy, III. Annie has made many friends who will be sorry to see her leave.

Bert Supernaw leaves soon for Baldwin where he intends spending the winter at school. Married At the residence of the officiating pastor, Rev. William Pocock, of Waverly, Wednesday, Sept. 14th, 30 a. Mr, Ed Stevenson, jr.

and Miss Minnie Supernaw, both of this place. They spent the 14th and 15th at the Burlington air. Here is our hand, Ed. Long may you live And happy may you be, Civing p.easnt hours To your bride, Minnie. M.

T. KEGG. What is the matter with the school board? Who is the kicker? Name him out and the people will ask him to resign. First the board could not agree on teachers and called a meeting. This was balk No.

1. Then the school book farce; this was balk No. 2. Then failure to get stage scenery. This is balk No.

8. AVe hope this balking business is not to be continued ad infinitum. The people have been patient in the past, but we can hot promise just how long that virtue will continue. AVe have been informed that a por tion of the school board is ready and anxious to purchase the scenery for the Hall in accordance with the instructions of the district at its last annual meeting, but as in all other doings in AViliiamsburg, other members (or member) get sulky because matters are not just down to the ir antiq uated ideas of stage fixtures. This towu has been kept back long enough by kickers.

The Ea gle has no patience with such unbu-siness conduct. There is no one in this life that has everything his own way in all things and it should be a part of every one's nature to be ready to let the voice of the majority rule occasionally. The people of this district by the dozens inform us that they want scenery for the stage, or they would not have so voted, and it is wrong to prolong the matter longer. Good offers have been made. AVhy longer wait? Notice-Ail knowing themselves indebted to F.

P. Martin will please call at once and settle. P. MARTIN. Several new names added to ourj list this week.

Mrs. Clara Cox, Streator, I1L, and Mr. L. E. Peddicord, from Marseilles, 111., and H.

Mulford, of Streator, I1L, arrived on Wednesday, and. are the guests of R. B. Peddicord of Sac Valley. See change in B.

C. Fogle's advertisement. Those wanting stoves will find a new stock, complete in all styles from which to select and at prices that no other firm or town can approach. All reading matter of an advertis ing nature must be paid for at the rate of 5 cents per line. We can not afford to puff money into other people's pockets without a small consideration for ourself.

Leavenworth has struck another coal mine at a depth of 725 feet below the surfaee. The vein is thirty-one inches thick. The city celebrated in grand style yesterday, this important event in her history. Frank Gavin, of Agricola, made his annual call on the Eaglk this week and placed us under renewed obligations to him for another year. He reports the prospects good for an other store in Agricola.

Albert Moler, the wide-awake post master from Mineral Point, Anderson County, was in town on Friday and paid this office a pleasant visit. He looking up the interests of the new town of Mineral Point, and we learn that it has bright prospects for the future. 0. D. Street will offer his personal property for sale on Saturday, Oct.

have put up a wire fro.m the depot to Fogle's stors where Bracken has an instrument and both ar pupils of Prof. Harding, late of the Oberlin Telegraphic Institute, of Ohio. The Young Folks' Temperance Literary Society elected the following officers at their last meeting: President, Harry Donaldson; vice-presidents, Miss Annie Kuster and Miss Storms; secretary, Miss Mattie Bun.n; treasurer, Miss Christine Nelson. From the tone of one of the Quen- emo papers, it seems that the business' men of that net work of railroads are trying to starve it out. It claims it is upon political reasons, but from a few paragraphs we might be safe in thinking the people had other reasons.

Kansas is not yet ready for anarchist doctrine. J. O. Tapley returned on Monday from his Michigan trip. His father died before he arrived at home.

Hisather had travelled ex-extensiyely over Kansas as an evangelist in his church, and consequently is widely known. The Eagle will have an obituary in next issue reprinted from his home paper. To the Public. Having the agency of the Adams Express Company at Wil liamsburg, I now keep the office at my place of business, and most cordially invite my friends, and especially the old friends of the Adams, to again give the company their future patronage, on my part, to try to please them and give them as good rates and attention as they can reasonably ask. All patrons of the company are invited to again renew business with the Adams.

M. Swift. Dan Magrath, of jyaverly, was in I town on Tuesday. The band will not go to the fair until on Thurdav. A.

J. Sutton visited Rosemont last Monday. Ye editor likewise. trustworthy papers. Read kall sides, neighbor.

The Osage County Republicans at their convention in Lyndon on Tues day nominated the following ticket: Treasurer, Joseph Drew, Burling- game; sheriff, Nic Frankhouser, Osage City; register of deeds, Jerry Hussey, Rosemont; clerk, R. Mc Clair, Carbondale; surveyer, Mr, Gray, Superior Township; coroner. Dr, Peak, Osage City; co. Howell, of Superior Township. It was no surprise to us Wednesday morning to hear that Mell McMillan was the nominee of the Con vention on Tuesday at Ottawa for sheriff.

Mell is widely known over the county and counts his friends by the hundreds. No more popular man could have been named by this con vention than Mell, and it would be no great misfortune if should be elected though he is a greenbacker, The Eagle with every one else re joices to know that Jerry Hussey was successful in the race for Register of Deeds at the Republican con vention at Lyndon on Tuesday. Mr. Hussey is deserving of this recogni tion from his party, having served it faithfully for many long years. And the party in honoring him has hon ored itself.

Jerry will not only be elected but will make a most efficient, trustworthy officer. We have been watching the Otta-Levar closely, and were in hopes that the lever being used in thatoilice was long enough in purpose, old enough and strong enough in character, to keep irom slipping into the mud, but, as in many other things, we are doomed to disappointment. Its disgusting. despicable Uing at the Williamsburg Eayle in its last week's isue is un worthy oi even a saloon irequenter. It is certainly not in harmouy with the nigh character and character of a papsr that assumes to teach temperance and morality.

WeUsuUto Exchange.
