Y. Hoover and family wore treated to a surprise party by several of their friends last Friday evening. Those present report having enjoyed themselves pleasantly. A number of youths were arrested today, for creating a disturbance at a literary society at the Kibbe school house last Friday night The cases are in charge of deputy county attourney F. A.

Hay. Kansas People. The ashes of a supposed human being have been discovered on Winifred creek near Arvonia and considerable excitement prevails in that neighorhood in consequence. A coroners inquest waa held over the ashes last Thursday afternoon, the jury agreeing that the remains were those of a human body but could not aay whether they were cremated to hide murder or not. One of the saddest events which we have ever had to record occurred last Saturday about six miles west of town, which ended the life of little Milda Ualler, six year old daugter of Joseph Ualler.

She was playing on the ice with her sister two years older, the ice broke and Milda full through into the pond. Her sister, being unable to help her out, ran to the house for assistance, but before it arrived the child was drowned. The funeral was held Monday. Some indiscriminate dog poisoning has been going on lately, and as a consequence some really valuable dogs have been laid low. We don't know who it is that docs this kind of work, but it shows a cowardly disposition and the worst feature is that It is liable to catch all but the right dog.

If there are any dogs running unlawfully about town It is the marshal's duty to shoot them and no one has a right to put out poison. The small grocery store near the station, owned by Mr. I. H. Shepard was destroyed by fire Saturday night with the goods it contained.

The fire was first discovered about half past ten but had gained such headway that It was impossible to enter the building to secure any of the goods. We understand that the building was insured for $200 and the stock for $400. The origin of tho fire is a mystery. The opinion is held by many that it it originated between the ceiling and roof as most of the fire seemed to be in that part of the building when first discovered. The Verdict Unanimous.

W. D. Suit dmggist, Bippus testifies: lean recommend electric bitters as as the very best remedy. Every bottle sold has given relief in every case. One man took six bottles, and was cured of rheumatism of tenycarsstanding." Abra ham Hare, druggist, Bollville, Ohio, affirm: "The best selling medicine I have ever handled in my twenty years experience, is electric bitters, "Thousands of others have added their testimony, so that tho verdict is unanimous that electric bitters do cure all diseases of liver, kidneys or blood.

MM. At the family residence in this city, of pneumonia, Mrs. Lucy A. Smith Van Dyke, Wednesday, Feb. 6.

Lucy Ann Smith was born in Warren Ohio, March 30, 1830, married Sylvester L. VanDyke in December, 1850, at the home of her birth. In 1878, she moved from Terre Haute, with her bus-band and children to Burlingame and ha made this her home until the time of her decease. She united with the church in her early youth and at her death was a a member of the Presbyterian church of this city. She was an earnest, conscientious Christian woman; one who did what she thought her duty regardless of all consequences; a most devoted wife and mother, a kind friend and neighbor to those with whom she was associated in life's journey.

Her loss is an irreparable one to the family and community. A husband and four children survive her to mourn her loss. The funeral services were'eonducted at the Presbyterian church by Rev. A. W.

Lawrence. "Thou art gone to the grave, we no longer behold thee, Nor tread the rough paths of the world by thy side; But wide arms of mercy are spread to enfold thee. And sinners may hope, slnoe the sinless one died. A Sew Store tit Town. We call the attention of our readers to the advertisement in this paper of Mr, Wm.

Anthony. He has put a full line of clothing and furnishing goods into his new store and Invites you to examine his stock and learn prices. Mr. Anthony does business on business principles and those calling on him will be pleasantly and courteously treated. It Wot ALU.

The man that said I was sneaking around Geo. Strunks house lost Friday night while the social dance was in progress is a liar and I can prove it. F. A. Clink.

We are under obligations to Mr. Dcr ringer for a pleasant ride at his invitation to visit the lyceum at district 35 lost Wednesday night to hear the subject of tariff reform debated upon. The house was well filled and good order prevailed, but on account of the absense of all but one of the opponents of tariff reform the debate proper was postponed until the next regular meeting. Those of the contestants who were on hand were allowed fifteen minutes each, however, in which to make a few points, and the opportunity was embraced by J. H.

Hanmer, 3. U. Hep-worth, Thomas Mitchell, and Peter Kirby on the side of reform and G. Mercer op posing. A splendid opportunity ia af forded at the country school houses during the long winter evenings for the discussion of state and national questions and the Democrat would like to suggest that if the lyceums in the vicinity of Burlingame would take up legislative questions as they are brought before the legislature, systematize their debates so that each week the same question would be discussed by all the societies, and arrange to have the results of each debate made known to each of the others handling the the same question, the result would be most gratifying and excite a lively interest in questions of great importance to every citizen.

For Instance, the subject of the meat trusts which has agitated the whole country for the past few weeks, would make an admirable and valuable topic for discussion, if for nothing more than to find out and know the minds of our people and bring out all the points in the matter. A fair audience assembled last night to witness the wonderful performances of Miss Lena Loeb. If anyone who attended the exhibition is able to explain the mystery of her phenomenal powers we have not yet heard of it The feats she performed of resisting the combined strength of eight or ten men, seems supernatual and almost causes one to doubt his own eyes. Her power of mind reading was equally wonderful and proved successful and won her hearty applauses from the audience. Bills have been printed at this office this week for a public sale of stock con sisting of cattle, horses and bogs, which will take place at the farm of Mr.
