Dr. Arlington is in receipt of a daily paper from St. Cloud, Minn., giving an account of the election of his nephew, James McKelvy, as sheriff of that county. Mr. McKelvy will be remembered by many of our citizens as having resided here a short time several years ago. He was then a bashful, mild-mannered youth who apparently gave little promise of his subsequent stirring career. He joined the regular army several years ago where he proved himself a daring soldier and efficient officer. He was

a lieutenant in the battle of Wounded Knee about four years ago and in this engagement was severely wounded. He was afterwards made chief of police at St. Cloud, Minn., where he has dealt successfully, single-handed, with some very tough characters. In speaking of Mr. McKelvy’s election as sheriff the paper states that he surprised everybody by the tremendous vote he received. Mr. McKelvy’s friends here will be glad to learn of his success.

Communion service at 7p. m. The smallest “cat-boil” is large enough to show that the blood needs purifying—a warning which, if unheeded, may result, not in more boils, but in something very much worse. Avert the danger in time by the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Cured others, will cure you. A cup of muddy coffee is not wholesome, neither is a bottle of medicine. One way to know a reliable and skill-fully-prepared blood-purifier is by its freedom from sediment. Ayer's Sarsaparilla is always bright and sparkling, because it is an extract and not a decoction. A malicious falsehood to the effect that there were three new cases of smallpox in Walkerton was circulated last Sunday in the surrounding country. Circulars denying the falsehood were signed by the business men and town officials and circulated through the country and in the neighboring towns. A letter received by Noah Shoemaker from Rev. J. M. Leonard, formerly pastor of the Walkerton Presbyterian church, and later missionary to Japan, states that he and his wife are now settled at Elvaston, 111., a place located near Keokuk, lowa, where Mr. Leonard is pastor of a church. He states in his letter that they are getting along nicely and like their new location and the people there. They send their kindest regards to all their Walkerton friends.

Mr. Bucklen Is the millionaire manufacturer of Dr. King's New Discovery and other remedies. Although now practically a citizen of Chicago, he rdways remembers his old home town and never misses an opportunity to do something for its advantage. That same enterprising spirit is what has made him a millionaire. Twenty years ago he was a small druggist in Elkhart. The following is a part of resolutions concerning Lay Delegates, that passed the last general conference: Resolved. That in the month of October or November, 1893, there shall be held in every place of public worship of the Methodist Episcopal church an election, at which every member in full connection who is not less than twenty one years of age shall be permitted to vote upon the following proposition : “Shall the second restrictive rule be amended by adding the words ‘and s; 1 delegates must be male members’ after the words ‘two lay delegates for an annual conference,’so that it will read: “Nor of more than two lay delegates for an annual conference, and said delegates must be male members.” If this amendment does not carry the words “lay delegates” shall be construed as including both men and women. This election will be held Thanksgiving day at the close of the ' "'orniug service. 1

Accidental ouuv... v On last Monday Mrs. Daniel Brown, I of the Island, was accidentally shot by her daughter, Mrs. Mull. A revolver, which Mr. Brown usually kept upstairs, had been taken out of the house by some little boys and returned to the cupboard where it was placed under a plate. Mrs. Mull on going to the cupboard found the revolver there and being surprised at the discovery called her mother and while holding the re- ’ volver in her hand it was discharged • and the ball, a 32-calibre, lodged in * the left shoulder of Mrs. Brown. The

revolver being a self-cocker, which fact Mrs. Mull was ignorant of, it was very easily discharged. While Mrs. Brown received a painful wound, yet she had a most fortunate escape, as the chances of her receiving a more dangerous wound were so very great. i Dr. Arlington, who was called, probed I ' thoroughly for the ball but has not yet ; ■ been able to locate it. He reports • I Mrs. Brown as getting along well at | this writing—Wednesday evening.

He contemplates two or tb£eamendments to present laws in thHnterest of farmers. The principal bill which ho will urge relates to town abb school trustees. The average ■*cldol trustee is harassed by school unfitly men, who are constantly urging upm him the purchase of fresh material for the schools under his charge. The trustee is often induced to give orders for material that is absolutely nwdless and often worthless. Sena tor Boord believes the proposed law wll correct this evil. It is proposed that all orders of trustees for school material must be n»de ten days before they go into effejt. They must be filed with the camty auditor for this time, during wjich tax payers will havo an opportwity to file protests. It is said that s|ch a law would materially reduce expense of the schools iu some stations of the stale.
