Sheriff Reed dined the county commissioners last Friday at his Avenue home. The Iroquois Dancing Club gave their second dance of the season at the opera house last evening The Iroquois ditch case lately decided against the petitioners has been taken to the supreme court. Harrison Baker returned Saturday to his home in Onarga, 111., after bis visit with L. Strong of our \jity. Saturday March 20th Bargain day for linen at a reduced price; pne day only. Chicago Bargain Store. The W. R. C. last Thursday presented a beautiful boquet of flowers tp the sick members of the G. A. R. and W\ R. C. Miss Flora Wharton, Mrs. William C. Babcock and Miss Ura McGowap were visitors to Chicago Grand last week. \ Perry Hamilton is doing honors on Ellis Walton’s bus while the former driver. Jno. McColly, is nursing a spraln- * ed ankle.

W. F. Heath, of Ottowa, 111., where he has merchautile interests, was in the city Friday. He is also a land owner in this county. Wm. Bennet and family have moved from their place in Barkley township to town, sharing a portion of J. C. Chiicote’s residence on Weston street. It is surprising what a “wee bit of a thing” can accomplish. Sick headache, constipation, dyspepsia, sour stomach, dizziness, are quickly banished by DaWit t’s Little Early Risers. Small pill. Safe pill. Best pill. A. F. Long. Mr. Joseph H. Sayler and Miss Lydia B. Weurthner of Newton township were united in marriage at the residence of Rev. B. F. Ferguson. Friday afternoon March sth. Love laughs at even the terror of hangman’s day, or adds to its realism. Frank M. Hanley shipped an extra fine lot of horses out of here last Friaay. All heavy drafters, weighing from 1,400 to 1,770 the largest. This one only five years old is good for a much greater weight. He was raised by John Ryan of Gillam township.

J. B. Clemons, a former townsman, now of Shelby, was on our streets Saturday. J. B. will be very much impressed with the success of McKinley’s administration if he succeeds in landing the Shelby posfoffice, otherwise—well, all great men sometimes make mistakes. Many cases of “Grippe” have lately been cured by One Minute Cough Cure. This preparation seems especially Adapted to this disease. It acts quickly thus preventing serious complications and bad effects in which this disease often leaves the patient. A. F. Long.

Merchants were not elated with their Saturday trade. Not only were there but few people in town but what were persistently refused to exchange their pockets full of good old dollars for goods at least until the McKinley times have •caused a few more “marked down” announcements.

They are so small that the most sensitive persons take them, they are so effective that the most obstinate cases of constipation, headache and torpid liver yield to them. That is why DeWitt’s Little Early Risers are known as the famous little pills. A. F. Long. George E. Murray of Ellis & Murray is now sole owner of the well known property between the Odd Fellow’s Temple and the Citizens Bank on which the Spitler building stands. Mr. Murray already held a half interest buying the other half from William B. Austin. Improvements are not announced as yet. Since the last issue of the Pilot was mailed our time has been largely absorbed by enterprising undertakers, showing'us ‘ their new spring styles in ascension wardrobes, and good bye accesories in general. The cause assigned for these ante-mortem precautions is the precedent established by the county coronor o's holding inquests and then encompassing the silent victims in old style habili ments regardless of whether in life such are the selections they would have made. Our order is placed subject to the pleasure of the Hon. Park Wright, who is to turn us over to the firm presenting our written order.

On entering one of the leading business places of Rensselaer. Monday morning we observed tue manager adjusting hiß business to the new conditions. Marking down goods fifty cents bn the" dollar. This is the first positive' evidence of McKinley confidence, and the resulting prosperity. The merchant is confident now, he cannot sell bis goods at a profit and is adding the prosperity which was to accompany confidence. Which being a minus quantity reduces the price. They are here jusl as promised but not the kind he was locking for. Quite an effort wasjofade before the county commissioners last week Wed-; nesday by thj trustee <jt Marion township to have the line between Union and Marion changed so ap to throw Burk’s bridge into Union. Achunk of 160 acres would have to be taken out of the northeast corner of Maricfu, making an ugly jog, and diverting th j boundary from its natural line. The yline was established in its present pla/a about a year ago after a careful canvass of the facts before the commissioners by attorneys pro and con. The petition presented Wednesday had been kept a profound secret from the people of Union and was signed by only 35 voters of Marion. The board very properly ignored the petition.

Reflections of a Bachelor.

The more people agree with ius the more use we generally have sos their opinions. \ Some women seem to think thay can influence a man in about the sami way they shoo chiekens. | As soon as k girl gets married all the other women vateh her to see how soon she will begin to age. \ When a gir has been told that she has a spiritual faae she begins to try to put on a dreamy, rapt expression. A woman rever feels/the real joy tof shopping till she has mussed another woman’s hair at a bargam counter. A girl will give a niijn a silver flask with a monogram on it for a Christmas pr. sent and then get mkd if he uses it.— New York Press. \

the archer. There are those who sit In splendor, throned amidst the fruits of toll. Taken from the hand of labor, without price, as lawful spoil; From all such I turn in sadness, and my tearful eyes behold, _ Those who made this wealth and splendor, dying now from want and cold; Those to whom the earth in gladness yields her wealth and treasures grand, Starving, dying, for the values made with their own willing hands. Hearts that feel, and hands that labor, most do elevate the race, Founding cities, building railroads, giving trade and commerce space. Hearts that feel for human sorrow, bands that open for the poor. Most do brighten every morrow, most the erring do restore. To all such "The Archer" cometh with a kind assuring smile. Bidding every soul that loyeth justice to be firm awhile. ” For the day when mammons triumph seems to him the most assured Comes the whispered note of warning not to be misunderstood. Millions now are all in motion, like the troubled ocean’s breast, Forming into bands of Brothers, to relieve their sore distress, And It is to aid the movement for the mustering of the clans That "The Archer” comes among you, and with wide extended hands Both to help,- and to exhort you to be firm and true and brave •Till the hosts of rnanndn scatter, ‘till he calls no man his slave. When the soli we love and cherish yields to labor all her store Then our mission will be ended and our struggles all be o’er. —W. P. Smith.

some changes in the ditch laws. The house sustained the veto of the bill establishing the state board of pharmacy, sent in last Saturday. The session resulted in putting 157 new laws on the statute books.

Jordan Items.

Joe Ulm is still in a serious condition. His father and sister are improving nicely. Johu Beecher of 111., arrived this week and took possession of his farm purchased of John Essen. Most of the tenants are now located for the year, some leaving the vicinity entirely. We are sorry to lose them but their places will be filled by equally as good. William Michaels is now the champion shot since his recent practice on a very large gray wolf if he did have to shoot three times. This* wolf hunt has resulted in some bad feeling on account of so many wire fences being cut, but „this is of small consequence in the amount of poultry these animals have destroyed. There have been four in the neighborhood of Walter Porter’s this winter.
