Ainnieuient.
A great musical treat is awaiting the peo
pie of Ottawa next Thursday night, Aug. 30.
Ida Clark, of Chicago, the great cornet solo
ist, will be here, also Bertha Clark, daughter
of Prof. Thos. Clark, of Aurora, who is ohb
of the finest violin players In the state.
These little girls are only 11 and 12 years
old.
The following la regard to Ida Clark we
take from Trumpet Xolei:
In the city of Chicago there is a little girl
by the name of Ida K. Clark, who is only 11
years of age, and gives promise of being one
of the greatest solo cornetists in the world.
She has been playing about one year, and
now has a compass ranging from F sharp be
low the stafT to J above. Her staccato in
chromatic runs is something wonderful.
She now plays in a number of the leading
churches, taking sacred music, transposing
and reading perfectly at sight. She is now
under the care of Prof. Frederick Austin,
who Is taking great Interest in her. Mr.
Austin states that be has during the past fir
teen years given instructions to over 600 pu
pils, but in no case has he seen her equal.
He believes that in five years she will rival
our greatest artists. By invitation of Mr.
Austin Slgnor A. Llberatl heard her play,
lie was amazed to hear such quality of tone
and execution from such a little body.
This will be a genuine treat to all lovers of
fine music.
The following well known singers will take
part in the concert: Mrs. Nickerson, Miss
Grant, and Messrs. Kendall, Grant and
Prichard.
Complete programmes will be out the first
of the week. Sale of restrved seats will
commence Monday morning at Simon's.
Reserved seats 50 cents, children 25 cents.
On next Tuesday evening the well-known
comedian D. II. Fitzpatrlck will give the
new Irish drama "Shaun-a-Gow," written
expressly for him. Mr. F. will be kindly re.
membered as Tuek In Harry Webber's "Nip
and Tuck." He Is supported by a large com
pany. The piece, abounding in fine situa
tion, will be Uin iu good style, with
special accaery, new mask, songs, dances.
Ac. We have no doubt the entertain meni
will be very enjoyable. M. F. Is quite a la.
vonto here, and starring ought nut to lose
any of his former humor and skill as an
actor.

Soldier' Keunlon.
On Wednesday evening a very successful
meeting ol the committee having in charge
the soldiers' reunion to bo held in Ottawa on
the 11th, 12tU and 13th or September. About
1,200 have been pledged by the business and
professional men of the city towards making
the occasion one of the grandest and most
magnificent affairs ever held in this part of
the state.
The programme as adopted contemplates
a reception of the old armies, posts and mili
tary companies, with perhaps some speaking
on the first day, and a camp lire in Hoes
Grove In the evening; a grand parade of the
various societies on the morning ot the sec
ond day, addresses in the afternoon, and a
night battle on the south bluff In tho even
Ing; ou the third day a sham battle, nnd
other exercises, and in the afternoon break
ing camp and'imiBtcring out.
Governor Hamilton is pledged to bo pres
ent the first two days, and negotiations are
pending to secure, if possible, the attend
ance of President Arthur during a part of
one of the days. Several other distinguished
military gentlemen and civilians have beeu
invited, and altogether it now looks os
though Ottawa would be thronged with visit-
ors during the three days named.
The reunion will not be confined to La
Salle county alone, but Invitations are ex
tended to all G. A. R. posts and old soldiers
of this congressional district and other coun
ties adjoining La Salle twelve in all.
A duty now devolves upon tlie people of
Ottawa make every guest, aud there will bo
several thousand, feel the true hospitality for
which our city Is noted. We can not afford
to have the stigma cast upon us which some
of our neighbors will always bear, that of
charging exorbitant prices for meals and lodg
ings. No one will be asked to entertain
without a fair, reasonable compensation, and
it is not possible that any hotel or boarding
house keener of the city wants more than
that.
We can assure all who contemplate com
Ing to the reunion that it will be time and
money well enjoyed to come and stay
through the entire three days.
The Pottery.
Mr. A. Simon has joined Mr. Jacobl in the
Pottery, near the old Cushman foundry. The
works under the new management began
making flower pots and stone ware on Mon-
day last. In the way of flower pots of all
sizes they are making a very handsome line.
Up stairs the smaller sizes are moulded in
plaster moulds by machinery, the simple lit
tle machine punch that turns out 120 two-
Inch pots an hour being the invention of Mr.
Jacobi. It works to a charm and Is a great
labor-saver. A little ball of clay Is thrown
into the mould, and a kicK or two on the
spring makes the perfect pot ready for dry
ing and burning. Larger sizes are turned
by hand in moulds made for the purpose.
Down stairs the larger sizes, from about a
foot to 15 and 16 Inches, are made turned
by hand. The process Is very interesting. A
ball of clay of a certain weight (which of
course varies witn the size of pot desired),
well mixed, is placed on a little round table,
which by means of a foot treadle revolves'
rapidly. The moulder starts it a-whirling
and by the pressure of his hands forms it lu
to the shape desired. No tools are used ex
cept a couple of thin blades of steel, by means
of which the outer side is made smooth and
free from finger marks. The polishing Is
done by a sponge. The handles are put on
after the pot is finished. The process seems
a slow one, yet Mr. Jacobl turns off the
largest sizes in a wonderfully short time.
Here, too, are moulded large vases for the
lawn, made In sections pedestal and pot
crown, .these, o( course, are burned, and
then being painted, make handsome orna
ments for the lawn. Hanging baskets, orna
mental rustic pieces, are made in the same
way, in a number of handsome designs.
The gentlemen have ready for burning
shortly a number of jars, also, and other
wares of clay they are testing for stone ware.
They feel confident tbsy have secured the
right clays for the purpose. The ware un
burned looks very nice, and should it prove
right this branch will be energetically push
ed. The flower pot business is an assured
success. The ware turned out Is fine look
ing, and having remodeled the kiln for burn
ing with wood, they will secure a beautiful
color for the burned ware.
Orders from Mr. Jacobi's old enstoraers, at
Bloomlngton, are coming in rapidly, and will
use up the production of some weeks to
come. These come without solicitation or
even advertisement, showing Mr. Jacobl has
earned a reputation in his line.
As fast as the business warrants the works
will be Increased. It is expected the build
ing will be prepared for working all winter.
They are now working night and day.
We trust the new venture will be success
ful in every way. It Is a new industry added
to the city, which may ia a short time devel
ops Into something greater than now
thought, Why may not Ottawa become the
Trenton of the West
The Prohibition County Central Commit
tee held a meeting la this city on Thursday.
Tbsrt wera present Mr. Thurbsr, of Mar.
seUIea, asd Jacob Base, of Ottawa, of the
committee, and Nr. Youmans, of 8eneca, cf
the state committee, who acted with the two
gentlemen above named. The resignation
of the chairman, Rev. J. H. Shay, of Streator,
from the committee, because of additional
duties In his church worK, was accepted, and
Mr. Thurber was appointed temporary chair
man. The committee was increased from
seven to seventeen, composed as follows:
S. Burwell, Seneca; J. Bane, Ottawa; A.
J. Thurber, Marseilles; H. A. Heath, fctrea-
tor; E. Harvey Smith, Ottawa; W.T. Baker,

The committee then adjourned, to meet in
Mr. Bane's office, Ottawa, September 2Mb,
at 2 o'clock I-. M.
Tlie Cost or a New Jlrlue.
Some questions have been asked concern
ing the cost of erecting a new bridge across
the Illinois river at this point. It may not
be without interest, pending the settlement
of the question as to who shall build it, lo
consider the cost and the percentage of tax
ation necessary to raise the desired amount.
According to the assessment of last year
there were t l,0ll,C0S of taxable property in
Ottawa township, and $:17S,1M in South Ot
tawa, or 2,247,50 In the two towus. Of this
the city has $l,672,5H9. An Informal estimate
has been obtained from the Canton Company
of the cost of an Iron structure to be placed
upon the present piers. There are five spans
or 155 reet each, or a total length of 775 feet,
with an IS foot roadway aud one sidewalk.
A wrought iron bridge to accommodate itself
to these piers will cost ;i!).50 per foot, or
31.C12.50. As this was a first and Informal
offer, It is safe to presume these figures can
be reduced, taking into account whatever
wight bo received for the old structure, at
least three or four thousand dollars. But we
will suppose a new Iron bridge will cost $30,.
000. ir built by the two towns, one-half of
this will be born by the couuty, leaving 15,.
000 to be raised by the towns, or 7,500 each.
L'pon tho estimate of values above given we
find that Ottawa, to raise that amount, would
levy a tax of 40 on the 100, and Soutn Otta
ws, 1.00. H, however, the 15,000 be raised
by an equalized tax upon the property of the
two towns, a levy of 07 cents on the 100 is
all that would be required.
Ou the other hand, ir it be determined; that
the city must build the new structure, and
that should be au iron bridge, it Is safe to
presume that the Board of Supervisors would
vote at least i 10,000 toward Its construction.
A tax of 1.20 would raise the balance.
Wo have given In the abovo calculation
maximum figures; for a first class Iron bridge
can unquestionably bo obtained, at present
prices, for considerable less than 30,000. It
is also the opinion of expert builders of this
city and of others who have looked Into the
subject that a combination bridge, similar to
hose over the Fox and Illinois rivers erected
by the railroads, is butter in many respects
than one entirely of iron, and that its cost
would bo only about two-thirds as much.
It seems to' be the settled opinion of the
public that a new structure is needed at the
earliest possible day, not waiting for spring
to come with Its attendant dangers before a
determination has been reached. It is quite
probaule that tho present structure would
stand all ordinary wear for a year or two by
constantly making repairs; but this Is not
economy. The 500 the city is now putting
upon the bridge will be lost by spring with
nothing to show for its use except a few
months' travel. Not only this, but It has
been necessary to employ watchmen to guard
the structure during the past few weeks, and
on the occasion of large gatherings, as on
the Old Settlers' day, the sidewalk was closed
to travelers entirely lest a crowd should as
semble upon It and some horrifying accident
occur.
CUt'KT HOUSE.
Circuit Court.
Judge McRoberts has granted the applica
tion of ex-Mayor Young for an Injunction re
straining the city authorities from issuing
bonds to Messrs. Lawrence, Campbell &
Lawrence and M. T. Moloney in settlement
of their contract for fees in the late bond
suits. No publicity has been given or the
reasons why the court granted the injunc
tion, but ilis thought by those who are in
terested that it must be on the grounds or
no provision having been made for the pay
ment of the bonds under the requirements
or the law. The injunction will come up tor
final hearing at the October term.

La Balle : Mr. Frank Holland, of

winter railed in an attempt to compel the
town of La Salle to pay him about fWO
more for Ms work than he agreed to do it
for, hasn't yet given op the fight lie baa
now sued the committee and the Commis
sioners for the amount of his claim. The
Circuit Court last winter held that his
claim against the town was good bat that
the Commissioners haa exceeded the legal
Units prescribed them ia contracting for

and Mr. Holland couldn't collect the
amount of the judgment H be ?t JuJR
