Ylagley Items. A pleasant time was had at the Reform Circle north of Magley, last Monday evening. Sarah Case and Charles Clark, of Decatur, were the guests of Ed Mosure and familj this week. Alex. Bovine, of Vera Cruz, foreman of the Magley Hoop Factory, was in our Burg last Tuesday on business. llehry Mosure and wife, of Van M ert. Ohio, and Frank Mosure, of A era Cruz, were the guests of Jonathan Mosure and family over Sunday. On last Friday a party of three in the vicinity of Magley played Buffalo Bill. They took a horseof John Hower to slaughter for the hennery. Dall Hower was to make the first shot, and it is supposed that Dall shut his eyes when lie discharged the gun: but he says the horse moved his head and that be hit him in the neck, consequently it did not take much effect- August Hein, being considerable of a marksman, was then called. He came with his Dutch pistol and commenced firing. The boys say he missed him altogether; but August declares this is not true, that he hit him on the nose, and in desecting the animal; they could not trod the ball. They next called on Louis Conrad, he came forward with his ritie and drew up to shoot the horse, when down went the hammer and the cap cracked ' but the gun did not discharge: Louis being a man not easily discouraged: he began putting powder into the tube of the rifle when the gun was discharged ami the horse was killed. John Hower now says if he knew that the’boys were iutendingto have a target practice at his old horse, he would have came down with his ax andlkillei him. If there is any more shooting to lie done hereafter by the citizens of Magley, thev should call on .lames Huffman, our merchant, and .George McGill, the operator, they have been practicing all summer on the broad side of a box ear. and after a close-examination, they found a mark on the iron bumper and which James Huffman claims was Hiis shot. Dora Zirkle claims this is a mistake. Linn Grove Grist. Rev. D. IL lleckard went to Portland last Wednesday on business. John r. Reynolds and wife, of Wapakoneta, Ohio, are circulating among friends here.

Miss Sophia Butner, of Huntington, spent Christmas with J. W. Place and wife. Comrade Charles A. Lamer, of Waseon, was at the bed side of aged fatner who is quite ill.

Davis Foster, son of Joseph Fosster, of St. Marys township, also a prominent lawyer of Chicago, of Rohm, Blackbern Foster, spent Christmas with hss parents. Franklin Marker formerly of Monmouth, this county, but now of the Regular Army is in the city visiting his Mother, and his Bro’s Al and Orin Marker. Mr. F. Marker has served twenty-five years continuously and is now on his way to Columbus, Ohio, to reinlist. lie was stationed at Fort Wingate, New Mexico, and belonged to Co., 11. of the 10th, Infty., I*. S. A. There is a bill before the present Congress to the effect of which will be ta place all soldiers of the Army who have served twenty-five years continuously, on the retired list, if the bill should pass, than Mr. Marker will be retired for life on three-fourths pay. Our Rambler took a Hying trip to the country to spend the Christmas, and rambled off into five or six townships, had a pleasant time, and paid particular attention to the condition of the wheat crops, he reports the crops in Root, i nion, Preble. Kirkland, St. Mary s and Washington township in the best condition, and the fairest prospects at this season of the year that has been for many years, if it continues till Spring without serious injury, the farmers will harvest the largest crop of wheat ever harvested in Adams county, a large crop is greatly needed, and more especially so if the price is Idw, for with a large yield the farmer can then bring up the arrears. There have been eighteen Presidents of the United States elected to that position by the people through their electors, two have been elected by the House of Congress, and four have held the position caused by the, death of the one Elected, under the constitution, it devolving upon the Vice President to finish the unexpired term, consequently we have had twenty-four Presidents, six of whom have served eight years, nine having served four years each, and eight serving the fractional parts of years in which the deaths of the President occured. there having been four instances in which the office became vacant by the death of the President. The present incumlient. the twenty-fourth President. With this issue the Democ rat winds up its work for the year 18»3, our next issue will be the first in the year 1894. If any of the business men of the city have decided to try the plan of making yearly contracts for their advertising they should call at once and arrange for space in time to commence with the first issue of the new year. Advertising pays that is the verdict of all merchants and business men who have tried it. The newspaper is ahead of any other medium, the paper reaches many more hands, and is read by more people than are bills or advertising schemes. Advertising is an investment: not an expense. I f large business houses considered it an expense they would sohn lop it off, but they must advertise to reach the people and draw them to their place of business. Now is the time to secure space for a good advertisement, change it often and have some important announcement to make every time you change it. These suggestions are for the business men of the city to consider and act upon. Some business men do not advertise at all, where one succeeds one hundred fail. Look well to your interests, and advertise in the Democrat. On Christmas afternoon a few relatives and friends gathered at the’residence of Mr. Geo. B. Cline, near Decatur to witness the marriage of bis daughter Martha, to Mr. Waldo E. Smith of Dublin, Ohio. At five o'clock the piano under the skilful lingers of Miss Nettie Winnes, sounded forth the wedding march, and the bridal party consisting of Miss Millie Smith, sister of the groom, Mr. Geo. ]j. Kern and the bride and groom entered the room. The bride was dressed in cream Henrietta, trimmed in lace and ribbon. The groom was dressed in black. „ The soiomn words which made them man and wife were pronounced by Pastor 11. 11. Smith of the Baptist church. After the congratulations a splendid supper was surved in the dining room. The bride and groom were the recipients of a handsome family Bible from the father of the bride and several other choice presents from the guests<At a late hour the friends departed feeling amply repaid for their trip through the mud. Mr. and' Mrs. Smith leave on Friday for Dublin, Ohio, where he is engaged in teaching. May the joys of this Christmas sweeten all the bitter experiences of life until the dawning of that brighter day when they shall sit down at the marriage supper of the Lord.

After services were over, the visitors and members retired to the Armory, when a spread was prepared Hiatniay have kept some of them awake that partook thereof too freely. That all enjoyed themselves is only the common occurrence when in charge of the parties who managed the affair on this oeeasion. After the banquet another treat was readyifor the guests, |his was and address by Rev. Gregg, and the presentation of a gavel to the Worshipful Master, and the acceptance of Hie same. The gavel was of wood from Mt. Vernou, Va., and I.ookwit Mountain, Tenn., the mallet was presented to the Lodge by Captain Hill. and the handle by Dr. Coverdale, while the handicraft of Dr. Neptuhe and D. M. Hensley was displayed in the preparation of the same that it could lie used to control the Lodge. After one of the most delight fid meetings ever held here. , all returned to their respective homes witli a feeling that those who attended the mystic shrine are happier and better for their <-oiinectiou Hierewitli. Christmas day was a record-breaker for dullness at the Chicago hotels. In the limited number of arrivals nothing toequa it lias l>een known by the proprietors and their experienced clerks. Everybody who had the price of a railroad ticket—transient or regular boarder went home to spend the hqliday, emptying the big houses, and the few who came made the old-timers in service say it was simply unprecedented. ••It is the worst,’’ was the way that Chief Clerk Cunningham of the Palmer House expressed the situation, as lie viewed only a dozen names on two registers. “1 have never known anything like it since I have been in Chicago,” he continued. “There is absolutely nothing doing and business is just dull.” Mr. Schafer at the Victoria said substantially the same thing. He told that many people living in the hotel had gone away for the festival season, as was evidenced by the scarcity of persons occupying seats in the corridor and the reading-room. The same condition prevailed at the Auditorium. the Wellington, the Snerman and the Lelann. At the last named the hew guests were composed almost exclusively of members of the Kendal company, and the clerk remarked that they were about as many as any other house got for the day. John B. Drake of the Grand Pacific was as cheerful as the circumstances would permit, but in a brief interview conceded the aspect of affairs generally as bad. “I have times very much like this in years past,” he said, “but the present condition is unusual. Os course we expect a dull time between Christmas and New Year’s, iMjcause all of the traveling men get home to settle up their affairs for the year, and do not come out again until January 1. And then families are getting together and enjoying tiie anniversary, and that takes away a good many people. Os course the hard times have made a difference, and there are not as many in the house as customary on Christmas. But we do not make any special spread fdr the day. I don’t suppose any hotel does. Our entertainment Is the game dinner in the fall.” This suggestion prompted a peep into the dining rooms, which were practically deserted. At the Auditorium case a spread had been laid, with elaborate decorations of table pieces in meats and delicacies, but at all of the hotels there was an absence of any preparations whatever, because of the scarcity of guests. Even the regular boarder went out to. dinner on invitation of a friend. A similiar story came from the Great Northern, the Tremont, the Commercial and other down-town Betels. Managers and clerks agreed that they had never seen anything like it. Practically no one came into the eity, white everybody who could get out of town went away. This fact was indicated by C. E. Clarke, of New York, who arrived at the Grand Pacific ovqrthe Michigan Central railroad in the evening, and said he was the only through passenger from Utica New York, and the only one who took meals on the dining car. In mentioning this incident, Clerk Morton remarked : “1 have been in this house for nine years arid in all of that time I never saw such a dull day. It costs every first-class hotel from $1,500 to 11,700 a day to run, and you can understand that this condition is severe. We expect better times early in January, because we will get the benefit of railroad and political meetings which take place early In the year. At this time there is nothing doing, and we know that when the Grand Pacific has no business the other houses are dull, too.”—Chicago Record, On last Friday night some sneak thief stole three of John Lagerman’s turkeys. This is the second time he has suffered a loss of this kind. Last summer some one stole a turkey hen from him that was setting, taking the eggs at the same time. He feels sure that life knows who 1 the party is that has wronged him of his Christmas turkey and in--1 tends to make it hot for him if he catches him on his farm. He will be sure to need a doctor to bunt the lead he carries Away. . . ■■ Comniissioner Holbroke was at Richmond, Ind., this week. ,

Charles Sceitz and wife, of Fort Wayne, spent Christmas with relatives in this city. Eugene Hammond, of Huntington was the guest of J. W. Place and wife over Christmas. That old batchelor, Mike Coffee, with a few of the same ilk, had arranged to' have a time Christinas by cracking several bottles of Extra Dry. According to previous arrangements Mike was on band early to crack the cask, when a gentle rap called him to the door, which upon opening he stood face to face with his best girl. He blushed, stammered and finally said, “good morning, Maggie.” Mike says he spent Christmas pleasantly if he did fail to get any of the “Extra Dry?’ Mr. J. P. lllaiie, an extensive real estate dealer in Des Moines, lowa, narrowly escaped one of the severest attacks of pneumonia while in the northern part of that state during a recent blizzard, says the Saturday Review. Mr. Blaize had occasion to drive several miles during the storm and was so throughly chilled that he was unable to get warm, and inside of an houre after ills return lie was threatened witli a . severe case of pneumonia or lung fever. Nr. Blaize sent to the nearest drug store and got a liottle of Chamberlain’s Cough . Remedy, of which lie had often heard, and took a number of large do'ses. He says the i effect was wonderful and in a short timo lie was breathing quite easily. He kept on taking the medicine and the next day was . able, to come to Des Moines. Mr. Blaize regards liis cure as simply wonderful. For sale by W. H. Nachtrieb, Druggist, d “markets? - The following market report Is corrected every week by J. Niblick Ason: COUNTRY PRODUCT.
