WE LIFE TO PLEASE.
The measure of life being but a f pan,
We should enjoy it while we can j
To accomplish this no better way
Than live with all in harmony.
Kach should endeavor each to please,
Which can be done with greatest ease.
It only needs to lay aside
Self, that would our reason guide.
To please has been our life's desire ;
We toil for it, but never tire;
And passing years suggest new ways
By which we may the people please.
For our last effort in this way,
Termit us here a word to say,
And introduce you, if you choose,
To our unequalled ttock of thots.
There's nothing like ii in the land,
And prices what the times demand,
Besides in comfort, case and wear,
You'll find perfection every pair.

The) Spring llooiu.
The spring trade boom la on and bag been
ever since spring goods begun to arrive at
II. J. Gillkn's. In the carpet line the trade
haa been simply enormous, the department
keeping five men busy cutting and laying.
This stock has had a success this season un
precedented in the history of the house.
The stock itself is by far superior to any
other, containing as it does a greater variety
than ever in nil classes and grades of goods,
while prices are confessedly much lower
than at other houses, as all buyers unhesi
tatingly declare. It will pay each one
wanting a carpet to examine.
In the line of general spring dress goods,
wraps, parasols, kc, the stock is complete
in every detail, and buyers are urged to
make an inspection of the stock. All low
prices met always, and the lowest prices
given on all standard goods.

of Ottawa. He was an eccentric old gentle
man, and died about two years ago, leaving
a property of some $ 100,000, to be divided
in accordance with the provisions of his
will. The will, as is apt to be, was partial,
the slighted heirs claim it was unjust, made
when Mr. Claytou was not fit to transact

Of course, everybody claims to sell goods
cheaper than his neighbor, but the truth is
that John Fecny, Madison street, is the only
boot and shoe store In the city that does ac
tually do this; and there is not an article In
his store but can be bought for at least 50c
a pair lower fur the same grade of goods
than at nny other store in the city. This
fact can be verified by any one who will
accept his invitation to call and examine his
stock and prices. Think of it : f 2.o0 shoes
for $2.00; $3 00 for $2.50; $3.60 sliocs for
$3.00, and so on through the list. Isn't this
worth saving these times? Try it and see
how you like it. This Is not an advertising
catch, but farts, for, making a specialty of
men's boots and shoes only , he has an 1 can
offer his patrons advantages in that Hue that
no other house in the ciiy can approach and
and live.
The ItiiHlnrits Men.
The meeting of the Business Men's Asso
ciation at the court house Thursday evening
was called to order by Tresident Catlin al
8:10. Trcsent, 33 members. Enoughtuore,
however, dropped in during the evening to
raise the number to over sixty. Tresident
Catlin stated that the object of the meeting
was to consider the proposition of the West
ern Cottage Organ Company. J. E. Torter,
chairman of the committee, reported that
the company would cotno here for $20,000
and five acres of land j that they employe 1
100 men j would erect a shop three stories
high and 10x300 feet ; that the five owners
would erect each a fine dwelling. He
thought they ought to be gotten to come
hero.
Messrs. J. E. Scott and D. A. Cook then
offered some remarks, chiefly in support of
what Mr. Torter had said. The chair spoke
again at some length relative to the health
of Ottawa, on which subject Messrs. E. G.
Osman, W. W. Taylor and F. A. Kendall also
hud something to say. Mr. Kendall was
stroug in his assertions in favor of raising
the bonus to get the company here, and, in.
deed, that seemed to be the prevailing senti
ment of the meeting. Mr. Torter then Bug
gested a plan which he considered a feasi
ble one to raise the money. His plan was
to form a stock company with $25,000 capL
tal, buy 27 acres of land, give the Organ
company seven acres, mark out the rest in
town lets, and sell them for an advanced
price after the factory was running.
Mcssrs.JCook, Taylor, Hossack, and Trof.
Tufts then spoko, indulging in an informal
discussion of the matter, and all favoring
the eoheme suggested by Mr. Torter. Mr.
Torter then led the list of subscribers by
pledging himself for five shares, or $500.
Others followed until about $7,000 was
pledged. A committee of five was then ap
pointed by the chair, on motion of Mr.
Hossnck, to continue the canvass for sub
scriptions. This committee consisted of II.
L. HoBsack, F. A. Kendall, W. 0. Rtale, D.
Hess, I. N. Beem. A committee of three on
organiiution was then appointed, consisting
of Samuel Richolson, D. A. Cook, and 11.
Mayo. The meeting then adjourned till
Monday evening.

Obituary.
There died at his home in Rutland yester
day moruing at 2 o'clock, one of the best
known men and oldest settlers in La Sal'.c
county Resen Debolt. No cause is assigned
for his death except old age. He was eighty
years old and very weak. He had taken a
slight cold, and i. overtaxed his strength
and was the immediate cause of his death.
The many friends and aeqiiaintuncts of this
old pioneer will bo much grieved to lei.ru of
his death.
Iteseu Debolt was born in Licking county ,
Ohio, December 11, 1 S0t. His father was
a farmer, and IJescn followed his father's
business. He moved to Illinois in 1829 end
settled in ibis county on a government clnim
December 18. He added to his frai from
time to time, and owned at his death .00
acres of the best farming lands in the
county. He was married in 1827 to Emma
Grove, who was the mother of six children,
His first wife died April 27, 1813, and he
was married to Eliialeth Richardson in
1844. By her he had four children. The
second Mrs. Debolt is elill living, as arc
seven of Mr. Debo'.t's children, two by the
present Mrs. Debolt and five by the first
wife. The deceased has been prominently
connected with the Democratic party ever
since his arrival in this county, and was
very strong in hie political views. He sub
scribed for the Fbee TnADtn in 1840, and
has taken it ever since. He has held the
office of Highway Commissioner, but
although somewhat of an partisan years
ago, Mr. Debolt was not in the least aa office
seeker. A thoroughly good man, his long
life of usefulness and toil is a noble exnn pi
to the young who are struggling fur wet U i
in the field of honest toil and carefulness
rather than with the hope of getting some
thing for nothing and reaping the riches
others make.
LCRIN20 I'OMINY.
Another f the pioneers of La Salle coun
ty died at his home in Serena township on
Monday Mr. L. Doininy, con of Era
Dominy. Mr. L. Doininy was born in
Clinton county, N. Y., and was a member Of
the family his father brought to Illinois in
1835, the father being the first Bible agent
on Indian creek. The son, one of a family
of 11 children, became a thrifty farmer and
an active man in town affairs. He held scv.
eral town office and for many years Mrvcl
his neighbors as justice of the peace. 11
leaves four grown children. A man univer
sally esteemed and respected, a worthy eon
of a worthy sire, hi? taking off is an event
to be regretted.
