The old lady with the green goggles who resided with the Monroe itemizerlast year, made a flying tour in this locality last week on matrimonial prospects. She called the itemizer out of bed about eleven o’clock p. m. and inquired the way to Kinney’s on the hill. She said I have been in the market for forty years and I have not been successful in -unning my head in the matrimonial halter, and I gave up in despair, when V. B. Simcoke informed me that one M. J. Kinney was in the market. I {old the old lady that she could not find a better location for her object in persuit, for we could find more old bachelors in Jefferson township than anywhere on God’s green earth. The old lady mounted the bicycle and adjusted her bonnet in the latest fashion, and said, “I am going right to Kinneys on the hill, and propose to Mike, if he refuses I will ask Pete, if he says no I shall call on Pat Foley, and if he refuses you will hear something drop.” As your itemizer has not learned what luck the old lady had in her proposals, but will give full particulars in our next.

Heller, thence along the State read and Meridian street of the town of Buena Vista, until it strikes the Reynols gravel road, forming a ‘‘Y", between the two pikes. One half day soliciting rai.-ed money enough to buy the gravel less nine dollar, but as is generally the_casej there be some property owners who refuse to respond.

From the complaints about the bad roads that have filled the country papers, it seems evident that our farming communities have awakened to the necessity of doing something to render the roads passable in winter and relieve the blockade of travel that continues yearly through the winter seasen. Good roads cost money but they do not cost nearly ao much as bad ones. The paralysis pf business that is the inevitable result of muddy roads at the very season of the year when the farmer would be the best able to market his products, were it possible to reach market with a fully loaded wagon, is a great burden upon the pros perity of the state. The fanner, shut out from the market, or compelled to reach it at double the expense incurred at other sessions, is the prime loser, but the buiness men of country towns, the merchants of the city, and the artisans and the laborers everywhere also share in the Iqss. If the rural communities have at last realized this fact, ard that they would lose more by haying bad roads, than it would cost to make good ones, then the first and most important step in the way of remedying the evil has been taken. If they want good roads they can have them, and unless they do want them badly enough to pay for them they will never materialize. The rural districts dominate the legislature, and it is for their represen’atives to pass the laws necessary to the securing of, public highways that will be such the entire year round. The old pick ,and shovel system must be abolished, and the making of permanent roads, in a systematic manner, with foundations of rock and top dressing of gravel and sand, well drained and solidly rolled, must take i’s place. The money spent upon the roads under the present system is practically wasted, and no permanent result is achieved. A collection of road tax in money, with no personal service whatever to be spent by a county, superintendent who knows bis business "and is he’d responsible for tie results, wpivd keep all roads in good repairs after they harf once been properly constructed.

A murder’ that out-does the White Chappel murders of Jack the-Ripper, was committed in Chicago the other day under the influence of that very innocent drink —beer. The murderer having confessed that it must have been the beer of which he and the murdered woman, who was his aunt, had drank a few glasses which caused him to kill her. The fith annual convention of theW. C. T. U.. of the 7th district of Kentucky, was held in Paris, Ky., May 4th and sth. Though the state W. C.T. U. has never declared for woman’s suffrage, except school suffrage, yet and Ist districts have both done so. Mrs. Josephine R Henry gave an eloquent suftrage and prohibition speech. The convention by an unanimous vote, endorsed a petitfon to congress for a law to secure women citizens in their right of federal sufferage for United States representatives. Tariff Notes. The hum.irous ex-Congressman Horr who has been hired as a protection propagandist, declares in big type in the New York Tribune that— The tariff is levied in the first place sim ply to enable the people of the United States to pay the high wages everywhere prevailing in this country. This is directly opposed to the declara tion of Mr. McKinley at Providence, during the recent campaign, that— No one ever claimed that protective tariffs were intended to increase wages. Mr. McKinley is a better authority on the subject of the tariff than ■ the peripatetic missionary of the monopolists can claim to be. And Mr. McKinley’s action is confirmed by the actionof the Republican House in voting down an amendment offered by a Democrat to his bill requiring the manufacturers to increase the wages of their workmen by the full amount of the proposed increase in the duty.—Shelbyville Democrat. A Capture Sure. A learned authority tells what chances of marriage a woman has during her lifetime in the following table: One-quarter of one per cent, from fifty to fifty-six years of age.
