Frank Brooks came in to this office last Friday, armed with something which at first glance we took it be a "Feejee" war club.

There was an air of dignity about him, and he seemed to have grown a foot taller since his last it. A skillful cross-examination developed the fact that he had been elected Justice of the Chapman township, Ottawa county. We congratulate the people there on the wise choice they have made, and feel certain Mr.

Eaves will the office in an able and efficient manner. Revien. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1889. ADVENTURES OF MOSES. 4 Liveryman's Experience with Troupe of "Hams," and Bloodhounds.

When the old original Moses led the Children of Israel through the wilderness he had a tough time of it, but the trials and tribulations incident to that journey were mere trifles when compared with the experience of Muses Trudell, last Sunday, while conveying the great "Chump" Henderson Tom" party across the country to Clifton. The sum paid for transportaion was $18, and Mose says, counting the wear and tear of conscience, and the damage to his character caused by four hours' association with the gang, he lost about $125 on the job. When the appointed hour for starting arrived, several of the "stars" were engaged in the air-holes in their "elaborate wardrobe," the "world renowned colored vocalists" were "shooting craps," while the truly good and pious Tom" was actively skirmishing around town after red liquor. A yeliow cur dog had chased one of the "Cuban bloodhounds" under the barn, and the donkey was kicking for oats. These numerous difficulties were finally overcome, and the "grand aggregation of talent" started out-twenty-three persons crowded into five "rigs." The cold breeze playfully flitted through the airy summer garb of the "eminent actors," and they alternately shivered and swore.

Some of the gang had been accustomed to "rapid transit," having frequently walked over the best railroads in the country, and they kicked vigorously because the drivers would not whip the horses into a run. The more they kicked the slower they went, and finally one fellow tried to drive ahead of the procession, but was promptly relegated to the rear, under threat of being deposited on the prairie. The procession moved on, and the "artists" continued to kick and curse, with a vigor that would have horrified the eminent author of the "great moral play," had she been there to bear. After leaving town, the "maneating bloodhounds" were unmuzzled and turned loose. One of the dogs undertook to fool around the business end of the donkey, and was knocked out of time on the first round.

He was placed in the baggage-wagon, with the other animals. and the show went on. At the classic hamlet of Joe," the "great and only" barnstormers secured a supply of and then they did howl. One fellow wanted to impress Moses with his ignorance of country life (doubtless he had slept in a hay -stack more nights than he ever did in a bed), and innocently said: What do they cut that grass for? Do the people here live on hay altogether," said Moses. "They raise a little sorghum and have molasses to eat with their hay -hay and molasses, that's the regalar diet." The company reached Clifton in time to take the train, with the exception of the donkey.

He was about fifteen minutes late, and the menagerie had to go on, greatly chagrined at the thought of leaving the most intelligent member of the troupe behind. Mose says the next time he goes on the road with an Tom" outfit, he will be several years older than he now is. It was a terrible experience.

There is no more fruitful source of disease than vitiated blood. It involves every organ and function of the body, and if not immediately corrected by the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, sooner or later leads to fatal results. Be warned in time James Matthews purchased from the Concordia Marble Works a fine monument, and erected it over the grave of his daughter, Ollie. It is of beautiful design, with portrait set in the marble, and is a worthy tribute to the memory of one who was loved by all. If you are fond of quail, George Matthews will furnish all you want.

The next time he goes hunting he he is going where the quail are good and fat. The one that sat in a tree and let him shoot at it four times was a poor bird, and would require more fat to fry it than it was worth. It was certainly tough, as I it shot flew in its away body. a with half-pound of Mrs. Martha Gentry, mother of Wm.

F. L. and John T. Gentry, well known and highly respected citizens of this township, died at her home near this city last Sunday night, ir. the 75th year of her age.

Mrs. Gentry had lived in Cloud county for many years, and her many estimable qualities won the love and esteem of a large circle of friends, who will sincerely mourn her loss. The funeral services were held at her late residence Tuesday morning, and were largely attended. Poor Old Unele Tom. Tom's Cabin" drew a crowded house Saturday night.

The performance was the same old "chestnut" that has dragged its. weary length across the rural stage during the last twenty-five years. Could Mrs. Stowe but witness the "execution" of this play by the average barn-storming company, she would doubtless regret ever having written the book which has furnished an excuse for the never cession of imbecile driveling Toms," alleged bloodhounds, and other "new and novel" features. Dave Shutler did some very good acting, when they turned the bloodhounds lose.

His hair stood on end, and he assumed the attitude of a frightened man, dropped on one knee, and with clasped hands and face turned heavenward, prayed mouth "Let me die a martyr at the of the dogs, but oh, Lord spare--" At this point his words drowned by the baying of the dogs, and we leave our readers to judge what he said. Mr. and Mrs. John Squires seemed pleased with the play and admired Mrs. Stowe for the good of her writings.

We noticed quite a number of our friends from the country- Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Trudell, Ernest Middlestates and sister, and Master Willie Zahn and his many more.

Hints From The Postmaster. When you call at the office for your mail, and the postinaster hands it out, ask him if that 18 all. If you ask him for mail and he tells you there is none, tell him their ought to be, then go home and send the rest of the family around to ask at different times through the day. Don't bring your mail to the office until the mail closes, then curse the postmaster for not opening the mailbag and putting your letter When you want a stamp ou your letter, tell the postmaster to put it on; if he don't like it lick him. In case you put it on yourself, soak it in your mouth long enough to remove the mucilage; it will then stick until it is dry.

Be sure to ask the postmaster to credit you for stamps; if he has any accommodation bin he will do it. If you have a box, stand and drum on it until the postmaster hands out your mail; it makes him feel good, especialy if he is waiting on somebody else. When getting a money order, be sure and have it drawn upon the wrong office, and for an amount you did not intend, and if you lose it, wait until it has been paid before you notify the postmaster. When you mail a letter, be sure to ask the postmaster if it "will go right away sure." SULPHUR SPRINGS. EDITOR To come down to actual facts, we baye no news of importance this week, except the grand victory of the Democratic party all over the United States.

This may not be so encouraging to you, being a staunch Republican, as we believe you to be. But to us Democrats, such as Kale Kuhnle and Doc Fairchild, it is most glorious news. To come down to solid facts, Democracy is rising, if you will allow me the expression. To lay politics aside, we are doing well out here at Sulphur. No one has got married, so far as we have been informed, but look out for a sensation in the near future.

Al Clegg is still waiting on Bennie Neil, and at latest reports Bennie was convalescent. Owing to a presure of business, we are unable to give you further particulars at present writing, but will see you later. THOMAS. CLEGG. To Commercial Travelers.
