THE RESIDENT, BY SILAS ROBINSON. ONE OF THEM. DIED. OWENS. On Monday December 23, 1885, A.

K. Owens. PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AFTERNOON. HELEN M. GOUGER.

Those who heard this talented speaker during her recent series of lectures in this city, will be glad to know that her services have been engaged and that she will deliver two of her best lectures in the M. E. Church in this city on the evenings of Tuesday and Wednesday, December 29 and 30. Throughout the whole vocabulary of female orators on the rostrum, Helen M. Gouger is the peer of all and the superior of many.

She is not only thoroughly cognizant with the subjects under discussion, but her delivery and appearance are such that the listener is entertained to the superlative degree from the start. On Tuesday evening her subject will be, "My Cuban Journey," in which she will give the cyclo "The public telephone," thinks one, is the reason why so many visit the Central Drug Store of Cal. James. but the idea is eroneous, as the people go there to get handsome Christmas presents. To look at the array of handsome and useful articles one would think that it were useless to lay in such a stock, but to examine the sales, one will quickly see that the public are appreciating the successful trial of keeping on sale such handsome gifts, as they are being sold at a rate which is astonishing.

Quite a number of these handsome plush goods were added Tuesday, and any one desiring to procure articles of this nature, should not fail to go to Cal. James. 3 pedia of Cuban life, their modes, customs, religion and daily habits. This is said to be one of her best efforts, hence a treat is in store for all those who attend. On Wednesday she will talk on Suffrage, adducing, it is said, arguments which are undeniable.

The HE LAUGHS BEST WHO LAUGHS LAST. David Crocket is credited with the saying, be sure you're right, then go ahead." If Dave was the author, he had a long head, much longer than his time allotted, little knowing how applicable would be his utterance to the present time of the Nineteenth Century. It will be remembered that The Resident published some school items in the latter part of October, saying among other things, "school will commence at 8:30 a. These items came from good authority. In the same issue, of a later print, it contradicted the statement, by authority of the Board.

"This latter was not sufficient, it seems as bills were put on the highway of "an eroneous statement having appeared in The Resident," thus giving the editor of that paper a slap in the face, without any he was misinformed," but a good square slap, with the tone of unreliability squarely stated. Rattle his bones, over the stones, he's only an who cares if he groans. Its a long lane that gathers no moss. By our quiet, sneaking, eves-dropping, contemptable way, we found out that the fundamental starting of that editor-humiliating circular emanated from some of the ladies of Belle Plaine -no use to deny it, because we knoweth whereof we affirmeth. A certain Principal of a certain school whose superior exists not in Sumner Committee has decided to give these ectures free, hence all should avail themselves of hearing Helen M.

J. Workman in the carriage repairing line. Why? Because he knows all about his business. For instance, at a glance he tells you what is wrong with the entire vehicle. If a portion of it is some shattered, but will run for a time without breakage or injury, he'll tell you so, as he will not misrepresent in order to get a dollar or so more out of a job.

Again, he will take a job and promise to deliver it in good shape, and, if in the repairing a nut is gone, or a wear crack appears in the iron which escaped his notice in the start, he always puts the extra work on, but never says its more than I thought," in order to get a little more money. Its right to encourage such a principle, especially, when the work done is always first-class. Take your work to II. J. Workman and gel a good job done.

Look at that school. We would't for the world say that the school in question was in Belle Plaine, and not for untold gold would we announce that the Principal referred to was Prof. Thos. Crawford. But look at that school.
