The musical company "A Royal Heart" was given last evening at the Walnut St. Theatre to a crowded house aud scored an immediate success. The company is headed by the St, Felix sisters who have long been prime favorites on the vaudeville stage. They are excellent stagers, unusually clever dancers, and clever actresses. They wear in this piece costumes of Holland peasants that they purchased personally while abroad last summer. One of their coBtumes includes fourteen white skirts, one over the other, a peculiar head dress and dark Btockings. They introduced in this costume, Holland songs and peasant dances, were received with more than usual favor.—Philadelphia Item. They will be at Music Hall Feb. 5th.

Miss Fannie Beal died Wednesday night at 9:80 o'clock. She lias been sick for several days, and, from its serious nature, her death was expected. When it did come the news was sad to the tnany friends that the esteemable young lady possessed in the city and vicinity surrounding. One week ago she was compelled to give up her school on account of influenza which developed into brain fever and resulted in the death of one of the most popular young ladies in the city. Taken away when the hlooui of life was at its grandest ideal and to be torn from a fond mother and Bisters and hosts of friends, seems cruel to be the work of a ruling power. Since the death of her father, about a year ago, she has lived with her mother in the city, but her death occured at her slater's, Mrs. A. E. Grieet. The funeral services were held this gaturday afternoon, Rev. Switzer officiating.

LOCAL POLITICAL COMMENTATOR.

By Cervantes.

Fred Sheets, I am informed, is going to struggle again for the oflice of city clerk, aud

I actually think it an unwise move in the

itusinesn iWaungor. young gent, for lie can not pull through even I if he is nominated. His iaie struggle was rather close and the next one will bo even more so for Freddy.

Dick Bible, "Kole Kreek's" son who wants to be sheriff on a very unpopular ticket this year, is coining to the front with a rousing support in the out townships, and, if he had not have fallen into the reservoir over in Ohio, we would bank on his chances for success.

It was a good republican brother who told me to wait and see the change in the city management which will occur in the coming battl". It will bo a clean sweep, and God knows the city needs it. The democrats want to put a good honest ticket in the field, one for the people, and next .May they will have a victory even in the city of Crawfordsville. Can this be possible?

"Kunnell" Wingate's log cabin over in Coal Creek lias been torn down aud sawed up luto "blocks of five" and used for stove wood The "Kunuel" still has his boom though he has said that ho was not a candidate. The fact is, said a prominent republican, whose name we might mention. Wingate knows this is democratic year, and he would be a dead factor if beaten, so ho would rather wait until something turns up more favorable,

The pub's have a youngster who aspires to be prosecuting attorney who would make a good oue, aud that is young George Stafford. He is a clever fellow aud would fill the oflice with credit, but then they do not nominate clever fellows.

Said Andy Anderson this week, a "prosecutor may make his money easily, but he gets it all back in the cursings the people give him." Anderson has a better job than running a bank for the wheel just turns and five dollars drop without his moving a muscle, but his cake is musty dough for future times. He could not be elected for coroner.

Charley Davis, the gallent' little deputy, wants to be sheriff aud would make a goi race, but I do think that I can name the next ticket. Mark my word and paste this slate in your hat. Representatve, your uncle Hannibal Trout sheriff, Ike Shevlin auditor, John Wingate treasurer, A. F. Ramsey prosecutor, Will Whitington surveyor, Jim Waugh You can bank on this combination and I would think it only proper to divide the profits with me.

Sl

I know Jeems Johnston can ruu like a scared dog, but I don't think he should want a string attached to the district for his benefit. There is such a thing as getting too much of a good article, and it is time Jimy, old boy, was huntiiig his shelf. Weeping Peter did not pay me to write this, but I am confident he wants the 8th congressional district to think as I do.

Did the Journal stop to think how many candidates for sheriff there is on the republican side of the brook when it was giving the names of the candidates on the democratic side in a recent issue. Cervantes knows of about ten workers who want the office and are going to strike for the battle with all the fury and rage of a victor. I may not be a good prophet, but mark my word there will be trouble if some of them are snubbed and we could easily tell you who they are.

Tuck Cox will remove to Lafayette. "VISK

A. F. Ramsey ha? had ttie la grippe this week. D. C. Barnbill has been sick with the la grippe.

Mrs. John Hauna has opened up Johnny Brown's grocery store.

Jno. M. Schultz was confined to the house a part of this week with la grippe.

Bou Henkel was in Chicago this week to purchase a new press for bis paper, the Brazil Times.

Louis Simuis, living seven miles northwest of the city, will offer for sale at public auction all of hlB personal property on Tuesday, Feb. 18, 1890.

Four entertainments have been given at MUBIC Hall this week. TliiB is too many for this Bpace of time, and the consequence was that business was poor with all of them.

Judge Snyder has dismissed the disbarment proceedings against Judge Davidson ond Judge Sellars, G. W. Paul having some time since filled his written dismissal of the charges against them.

A teacher at Lafayette, who thrashed a scholar for throwing a snow ball through a window, v?aB arrested and fined in the excessive sum of $4-1. It is a wonder the boy was not given a chromo at the same time.

The disbarment cases against T. F. Davidson and James M. Sellers were called in circuit court this week, but no one appearing against them nothing was done or will be, and this is, no doubt, the last that will be heard of them.

There are Baid to be about seven candidates in each of the two political parties in this coun ty for Btieriff.lt is remarkable that for the other offices but one or two candidates are spoken of. There is for a fact more work and less pay in the office of sheriff than any other, yet notwithstanding, the seekers for It greatly out number those of any other.

Miss Anna M. Sibbett, of the city school, is one of leading primary teachers of the state. Will some teacher please give us some advice as how we may improve in our profession?

Charles Kritz, of the city high school is very modest, but lie is doing some excellent work.

Is it wrong to make children learn to spell words the meaning of which they do not know?

The tendency of the natural powers is to uprightness It is ignorance that makes men barbaric.

Be systematic in yeur school work, as is the teacher, so the scliool will be. Bo uot simply good be good for something.

Last Saturday was examination day and a number of the teachers embraced the oppor lunity or testing their knowledge.^/i

It is certainly anuoying to the Couuty Su periutendent to have the same applicant for license for six successive months.

Sliakespere says that it is easier to teach twenty what were good to be done than to be one of the twenty to follow his own teaching

Now is a good time to prepare work to be exhibited at the couuty fair next fall. There should be a fiue display of school work at that time.

It is said of a member of a certain school board that he is opposed to purchasing encyclopedias as "lie did not think the scholars could read the blamed things."

The river of knowledge, like all other rivers, will never stop flowing for timid men to pass through with dry feet. It will flow on and we must take our header into it, and swim or drown.

It is the duty of parents to aid by word and deed the teacher in his effort to maintain the strictest order in the school room. When the teacher is supported by the parent, it is no trouble to build up his school to the high standard required by the state.

School life at moBt is short, and it is the im perative duty of parents to send their children regularly to school. Sickness IB the only sufficient excuse. In many instances furnishing book aud losing the tune of the child may be genuine hardship, but no greater service can be rendered to the children, than by giving tbeni a liberal education.

ED. REVIEW:— Please allow us space to respond to the coin munication Iu your last issue written by Dr, Etter although signed spectator. We have sufficient proof, however, that be was the author. Ere the type were composed, the Dr. was telling on the street that the article was to be published, and when told that he was the author did not deny It. We will give him a chromo for each spectator that he can get to say that they gained the argument, his fellow prohibitionists not excepted. We are not afraid to meet them on the question stated previously, and it the Shady Nook school house can be obtained, we will meet them at their option and a week's notice. We were not the authors of the articles that were written from this neighborhood. ALF. LOOKABILL,

Letter From Lost Anglos California. EDITOR REVIKW:—I have not seen your friendly columns since leaving Hyde Park, assachusetts, two years ago. We are having blizzard, abundant sluinguilion and flow of season. The good climate lias been unusually copious in many ways.

A few days after a storui set iu incr -asing day by day. Wo were soon surrouiriul by water as far as the ej could reach: No trains could go, and two hundred miles from Los

Angeles. After dajs of suspense, a hazardous route was opened up, with temporary bridges. Some stayed up, some didn't. I took a canoe for a tiain that would pass in two miles of the jouse iu which 1 was stopping, and caught it. Shortly after we passed out, I noticed a mid-dle-aged woman at tho opposite end of the cab exhoiting those around her on the present fulfillment of the prophecies, she being a Second Adveutist. Wo were informed that she was ou her way to take uotes at a national conv tion. Occupying the seat with myself was a young woman evidently from a rural district. She made some remark about the 7th day and smiled amiably. The Advent saw her, wiped her glasses and balanced up to us. "Young woman, I think I am a theological student," was the hast) leiort. "1 say, young woman, think ou use red chalk." "I do," she replied, "and white, also. They do not smell or intel vene on the rights of no oue, and this kind of powder don't ever scare a dude, I want to instruct you from Daniel." The student said she preferred th.) book in her hand' r.n?! nosed solmnly, "I fear the devil has bill of sale of you for 91. Tho student laying her hand upon her heart said,"This body will be only the remains of time. The new one iu which the soul shall dwell will be pure and immortal, will need no teachiu' up through all eternity." "You are lost!" echoed the Advent vehemently. "No I ain't," the student replied, "I know tho way. Jesus, the Christ, told the apostles and they told me,"

The woman jerked on to a subject occupying an advance seat, aud 1 heard no more from her.

Soon after the train halted at a iniBsing bridge. All was dismay for a few moments. Then stroug arms,applied by turns, a towering encalyptus tree was slaiu to spau the gulche's mad flow. Being semi-tropical some of the men swam over. The trunk lino was made easier by the Jennessee Miller rig, than those wearing long corsets and heavily trimmed cloth suits. On the opposite bauk was observed a regiment of soldierB, who like ourselves, had awaited transportation iu a neighboring village. A train about this time arriving over there, would now accommodate all. had just crossed over when Col. Toplirter, commander and quartermaster, lieut. Sinilington, arrived from the village, where thoy had remained to settle up finances. Tho Major buglar, Victoria Worthingtou English, immediately blow a prolonged blast. Sargent Fanny Fairllower, not iu attention, fell to her kuees. Tho over-worked fifer, Cora Melliug, Bwooued. All had colds from so much marching in the extreme dampness. But soon rallied in lino, presenting arms, returned by the Col. with the left hand while he also blow with his right. The hand struck up with colors "flying reo." They marched oil board, continuing until all wore seated. A holiness man," in front of us crawled under tho seat, such was his loathing diBgust. Others kept time with the baud. It ceased Olahoma Scorer, daughter of the regiment, passed around for contributions. Many of the rear passengers retired with great soleiuuity to a car containing only private soldiers.

When well on tho way, a blind boy learning on a crutch, led by a hungry little dog caino Iu one amaciated hand ho offered a flattened hat for alms all looked out the wiudows except a little girl who dropped in a nickle, a good natured countryman a small vial of cinnamon drops, all he had left after paying fare, and a young man from Bakersfield, sou of a Baloon keeper. 25 cents.

The wife of a railway king near by expressed cordial anuoyance at the various nuisances allowed on this road. Rev. Mr. Plucket, a home missionary, replying Hint it was quite true aud most astonishing that alms-giving especially, should be conducted by the regularly organized auxilllary of the church. A high churchman and Superintendent of a Christian Sunday school, were so engrossed in clipping with the theological scissors and refuting arguments, they did not see the boy.
