—Tie Supreme¢ Court of this State | has ‘decided that liquor-sellers, inder permits granted by the Baxter law,. selling 011;}et:tion days and other piohibited days, are not liable if liquor is | not drank on the premises.

'—We this week commence the publication, of a serial story, entitled “Rosalie Rathborne, or Sin ‘and Sorrow.” It is an interesting and excit- " ing story, showing the contrast between love’ and hatred, the mental _capacity for good over- evil which "every ‘one ppssésses, and the suffering | ‘which inevitably follows in the tracks “of sin. We intend to publish about -six columns of the story each week, the concluding chapter to appear in’ six weeks ‘from date. Lovers of a thrilling story will do weli to p;'eSel've' ' * each issue of the BANNER until the - whole is completed. g g — By a reasonably accurate count it ‘has been ascertained that on Satur-| ° day last four hundred teams came to ‘ this. town® from various localities of _ the surrounding country. Very few of these teams contained less than - three persons; four persons to the team would probably be a fairsaverage. It ' thus appears _that no less than 1;600- _ persons came here to do their trading! _The stores were ‘crowded all day, and " the perseverance. and ‘energy of our merchants and their assistants were taxed to the utmost capacity. We are ~ of opinion that precious few towns can’ - make an equally. good sHowing, . . —A diabolical act of incendiarism . . was perpetrated at Indian Village, _this county, early last Sunday morn- ! ing.

The fact that there had been mno firing at the mill ' for some time renders it eertain that -some soul-less miscreant resorted to this devilish plan to avenge himself _ for an imaginary grievance.

-Dedication of the New Church. | 7The new United Brethrea Church, north of the railread, was formally dedicated last Sunday, Bishop J. Wea--1 ver, of Dayton, Ohio, officiating, both morning and evening. Revs. Chitten‘den, of Tllinois, and Thomas, pastor of the congregation here, were also pres- | ent and assisted in the dedicatory services. There was an immense attend- | ance —probably not less than eight hundred persons ,\\'ere.-éisserr}ﬁleq on that -occasion. ~ After the -Inorning | services a statement was made of the financial condition of the society, by -which it was shown, that the new building had cost nearly $5,500. - Of ‘this amount, nearly $2,200 had already been advaneed in donations of land, Jabor and material, or vouched for on ‘subscriptions, leaving a balance of $3;400 yet unpaid. An effort was made‘to secure the liquidation of this debt beforef._x)roceeding with the dedicatory rites, When $2,100 was subscribed and J the balance, $1,300, in the eveninyg, after which the: dedication was completed. vTh‘el subseriptions received were as follows: .

This building is of | prick, substantially constructed upon a good stong_foundation, 36x55 feet, and is 20 feet from floor to ceiling. The vestibule is separated from the audience room by folding doors which, on special occasions, may -be thrown opeén, thus furnishing, including.the gallery, sufficient room to.comfortably seat five or six hun@red persons. The room is well finished, the wood-work, | including pulpit, seats, ete., being ash and walnut, is carpeted and completely furnished throughout. The windows are of stained glass and cost $l5 each for the glass'alone. The bell weighs 600 ‘pounds, has a clear, mellow tone and cf)st $240. When we take into consideration the fact that the United Brethren Church of this place was or- | ‘ganized only about a year ago (perhaps ‘less), through the labors of Rev. Thomas, their present efficient pastor,it must be conceded that they have accomplished a great work. But much credit “is due for the- plans and construction of this excellent ‘edifice to the energy ‘and enterprise of Mr. J. B. Foltz, to whom was entrusted the duty of furnishing the material and erecting the building, and who personally superintended every pgrt of the work., The labor on the building was all employed by the day. - Our citizens, especially those of the north side, are proud of the Fesnlt..

Times are livening up some now, which wé longed to see. It is the opinion of a gentleman in this town that times will not get better very fast, as things are getting down where they were before the war, and that times will continue about the same until another rebellion or some other like occurrence shall break that spell. We hope he is mistaken, which is most probably the case. [Mistaken—that’s a mild term for it. .

. APPROACHING SPRING.—ALt last the winter is beginning to wane and there are strong indications of the near approach of spring. Last Sunday morning the sun rose bright and clear, and by the 'middle of afternoon the huge drifts of snow and masses of ice bega nto soften under his persuasive rays. A south wind sprang up on Monday morning and added its warming influence to the/sun’s genial rays and the tears of departing winter soon ran thick and-fast. . The well-worn snow in the streets, .some of which had -done service for nearly two months, gaVe signs of demoralization, and the great sheets of ice, over which pedestrians “had slid and tumbled so long, grew porous and yielding. Gutters ran full of dirty water, and ‘ roofs, which have scarcely known any moisture all winter, surrendered their . sooty snow in streams. Following this | were gentle falls of rain duridg Mon-; day and Tuesday, and on Tuesday night a real refreshing spring shower. Little rills have. swollen to huge dimensions and rush_frassti on to add their mites to larger streams. Low

places have been rapidly transformed into~mihiatul§e lakes. Cisterns, whose sides had been dry for months, have been filled to the brim, and all nature is changed. Grim winter has relaxed his iron grasp and “gentle spring” has put in her appearance at last. Her sweet, warm breath is making itself felt in the swift undoing of winter’s 3 work. Day after day, and night after i night, the continued freezing had been going on; the great sheets of ice constanily thickening and the frost penetrating deeper and deeper. But now, at last, thie sun’s genial rays, the warm winds, and the refreshing spring showers have been too much for stern winter, and the way they are doing their work is beautiful to behold, Everybody is happy at the result. The prevailing opinion in this community is that we have had enough winter for one season, and if the weather clerk has any regard for public sentiment. he will see to it that the thaw so auspiciously begun i§ carried to a éuccessful ‘conclusion. : 0o

THE other day Young America asked his father for money ‘to fix his skates, and was ordered from his august presence.

Dr. Deems, of New York, ‘ said in g sermon last Sunday: “To my mind the four sweetest things in‘l this world are: Tirst, baby girls; second, ‘baby boys; third, ripe good old men; fourth, ripe gooed old ladies.” That is very nearly our creed, but we rather think we like a healthy moth-er-in-law best. And next, a ripe good old man, who sits quietly in the cor-l ner and tells lies about how far he used to go to school through the snow when he was a boy, and how he used to come home and saw up a cord of wood before supper, instead of sneaking in the back door for his skates as gqys; do mow-a-days.—Milwawukee Seninel. : s Che e
