Rev. W. H. Kearns, a well known and popular young minister, will occupy the pulpit of the Presbyterian church next Sunday. School opened last Monday morning with a full attendance. It opens Tinder happy auspices, a new and comfortable building, good rules and excellent teachers, and a Superintendent and Principal capable of carrying on the great work entrusted to them. An informal but very pleasant reception was held at the residence of Mrs. Cynthia Harper on Saturday evening last, to welcome the newiy arrived pastor of the M. E. church, Rev. J. T* Greenway. The church was filled for both the services by appreciative audiences and all were well pleased with the young pastor. Robert Love has been visiting in Manteno and Kankakee, during the past week. It is hinted that there is a special attraction for him down that way. Miss Alice Hollingsworth left on Tuesday morning for a visit of indefinite length with the family of her brother in Ellsworth, 111. A number of our citizens belonging to the order of F. and A. M. attended the funeral of Felix Donnelly, who died very suddenly on Tuesday morning of last week at his home near Monticello. Mr. Donnelly was for many years a resident of of this place, well known and highly esteemed. For the past two or three years his home has been on a farm near Monticello. One of the twin sons of Mr. and Mrs. John Lamborn, died on Tuesday night. It was about four months old.
