This from the Princeton Clarion. applies with equal truth to Monroe county, and so is of interest: Tjie average fanner of Gibson rouety ri:les iu a pretty good rig when he comes to town or gne9 out for u airiug. This was noticeable among the thnusands who came to tbe fair la?t week, but applies more rsiecially to the horses used to draw them. It is a rate thing to find a farm nowaday without one or more comfortable buggies or a handsome carriage. As to horses, however, there is much room for improvement. But this will follow in dim time.

He is only twenty-seven years of age, but he weighs 323 pounds. The tape showed bia physical dimensions to be as follows: Height, 5 feet, 1C J inches; chest (inflated), 58 inches; waist, 48 inches ; biceps, 211 inches; thigh, 82 inches; calf. 24 inches; neck, 22 inches. Cyr scarcely knows bis own strength. lie lifted a dumbbell weighing 265 pounds, with one hand, from the ground to the shoulder, and then alowly pushed it up jroai thu nhoulder to arm's length, using otiiy ths one hand. There is prchably not another man in tue world who could do this. Another time be tied a pair of bells together which weighed 440 pounds, attaching a string three feet long, and then lifted this great weight from the grouitd with one finger. His greuteet display of strength was made about a year ago at Montreal. On a small platform weighing i0 pounds were placed seven dtfntbbelis, weighing 789 ponuds, a bairel of flour, and seven heavy men. Cyr put his giant arms around the pi at form and lilted the lot. The aggregate was 3,328 .pounds. In another way lie lifted 8,356 pounds ot pig iron at Ber -tbtrville, Canada, on Oct. 1, 1888, i Tlic-iron was placed on a plank, Which rested on u trestle. Cyr trot under the plank, and pushing up with bis back, arms and legs, raised the weight clear on the trestle. No other roan in the world has been able to approach this per fonuance.

See tuat $1:25 Stand Lamp at LINDLEY'S SONS. A Good Suggestion. With tho burning of the Da viss coun ty court houee comes the announcement that the records of reil eatiile titles are in a chaotic state,, and that it "will require jears of woirk, worry and trouble to straighten ihem out, entailing no end of uxpeuse and litigation." This if a strong argnmeat in favor of a radical reform in our system of land title records. One way to perfect titles would be through a tipecial court to pass upon tho title ot every tract of land once ever' twenty years. Abstracts of transfers und mortgages could also be reported by the couuty recorders to th ft hind department, of tbe state auditor's office, where records could be kopt, with an additional clerical fore, entailing not mora than $10,0Ci) expenses annually.
