ADDITIONAL LOCALS.
An old form of swindling, but evidently new in this region, was worked here last week. It was the circus advance agent game. The man registered at the Makeever House as Bert Watson, of Cleveland, Ohio. He claimed to be an advance agent of , a circus which was to be here in a few weeks. The foil extent of his operations are not known, for people taken in by the game are usually very reluctant to say anything about it. The usual manner of working the scheihe, is for the pre-
tended agent to go about making contracts for the various supplies that circuses require, such as groceries of merchants, meat of butchers, hay, grain etc. of farmers. After a contract is made for say SSO worth of material, the “agent” will tip a confidential and insinuating wink to the party he is dealing with, and then offer to make the order on the circus treasurer S2O or S3O more than it should be, if the victim will then and there hand over half of the increase 5o the “agent.” The fellow remained here several days and no doubt found a number of victims. He left secretly and beat the hotel out of his board bill. - --

The public square oroquet players and their friends and admirers, which last two classes are more numerous than some people would be willing to admit, have lately contributed a small sum an® had four long bench seats made, o' a durable but withal comfortable design, and have stationed the same under the trees, around the croquet ground. We see therein a suggestion that might with great advantage be largely imitated. A dozen or two such seats, deposited about in the shadiest places in the public square would be a great boon, this hot weather, not only to our own townspeople but to farmers and their families, from the country. If the seats were made of planed 1 amber and painted a good color, they would not be objectionable in appearance, and if placed under some sort of shelter in the winter, would last many years. The seats would also come in very conveniently whenever there were meetings of any kind in the square, or band playing, lawn festivals etc. The seats, each large enough to hold 8 or 10 persons, can can be made and painted for about $1.50-each. We -suggest that some public spirited citizen pass, around the hat, and enough be raised to make 10 or 15 of them, and when the county commissioners see what a general convenience they are, they will no doubt order as many more at their next session.

WE DON’T WANT THEIR AD.
We have received from a firm in Chicago, a request for rockbotfcom prices for the insertion of an advertisement of which the following, with one or two slight changes, is a copy: ,
MARGIN No matter what booklet on T RAD INO sceculation yoa may have read EXPLAINED, seed for ours, which Is NEW and COMPLETE. It clearly explains margin trading and DEFINES ALL MARKET EXPRESSIONS. It’s free and will teaeh you something. FLABBERGAST & Co.. ?i Robbers’ Building, Chicago. The actual name of the firm is not quite Flabbergast, but pretty near it; and the name of their building is not Robbers’ Building, but it ought to be.
Now we don’t want this advertisement, at any price. While we make no claims to excessive virtue, we do have too much regard for the welfare of our readers to advertise these Chicago Bucket-shops and “curb stone brokers.” The trading in margins business, at the best, is generally gambling, and when it isn’t gambling it is out and out robbery. In this case we don’t think it is gambling. It is a discreditable and in its essence a dishonest thing, for any newspaper to soli such firms the use of their advertising columns, and it is straDge that any reputable iaper should do no. In the particular case of this Flabbeigast & Cos, of Robbers’ Roost, we have a special reason for declining to aid their bucketshop business in this locality. We happen to know that the .real parties ambushed behind “Flabbergast & C 0.,” are the fel-
lows who unloaded a vast quanity of rotten Mexican mining stock on iheir old neighbors, friends and relatives, in this vicinity, a number of years ago. Avaunt! Flabbergast & Co. of Robbers’ Roost! We don’t wan’t your ad, nor anything to do with you.

An Old Lie With New Trimmings.
North Judson News. Last Spring whi’e fishing at Ctdar Bass Lake Auditor Knosman of Knox lost his watch and a silver dollar from the boat in which he was sitting. Sunday he made another visit to the lake, and during the day caught an eight pound bass. His astonishment canJbe imagined when he found his watch in the throat of the fish . The watch was running and the time correct. It being a stem winder the supposition is that in masticating his food the watch was wound up daily.
$300 for a Bushel of Coal.
At Bloomington, Ind., on Saturday, John Hendricks was paid SBOO due him on a judgment from the Monon road. Some time ago a detective arrested Hendricks charging him with stealing a bushel of coal. He was acquitted after a trial before a jury, when his attorneys brought suit for him against the railroad company for damages and he was awarded the above sum. The case was later affirmed by the higher court.
