pntting up ico to-day, Monday. They have
put up seventy five loads.
P. H. Carr, a former resident of this place,
now of Waukegan, 111., is coming homo on a
visit in a few days. P. H. will receive a royal
welcome.
C. E. Taylor has promised to serenade us
when the weather gets fine. Do so Charles,
by all means, and you may be rewarded in
heaven, if you are ever permitted to visit that
place.
The most agitated subject of late has been,
what shall we do with all (bo dogs? The vil­
lage council promptly settled it by instruct­
ing the village Marshall to forcibly disperse
all crowds or mobs of the canine tribe.

The blind pig is running again and seems to

LVLE.
Saturday was quite a brisk day for the mer­
chants.
Don't need to say we have had cold weather
as all your readers know that.
Some of the wells in this vicinity are get­
ting low. Mrs. Bowman at the Central House
has bad the drill at work sinking the well.
Miss Buck is visiting her aunt Mrs. Couse,
Business was dullin town last week, until
Friday when our coal merchants had another
harvest.
Mr. Wiliiams, of the firm of J. E. Williams
& Co., is visiting his aged mother in Wiscon­
sin. Mrs. Williams its with her mother in
Iowa, who is quite feeble.
Our hardware merchant, Mr. Anderson,
and bis wife, go to Chicago to-day for medi­
cal consultation for Mrs. Anderson. Hope
she will find immediate relief.
We hear it was 40 below in Austin, wbiie
our thermometers only registered 38. Per­
haps we have something in Lyle that is two
degrees warmer than you have in Austin.
The ovster supper given last Thursday ev­
ening by the ladies Of tbe M. E. church, was
a very pleasant affair and a success in every
respect. Had I time I would comment on
the necessity of raising money in that way to
support churches. Why don't tbe inhabitants
of any town shell out enough for such pur­
poses as to tbeir own financial success if from
no better motive.
By the way, we have another lady deputy in
the P. O., in place of Miss Keenan, who was
captured by our former Marshall. We think
this one safer, as our present Marshall is a
married man. Then we do not see any
young man who seems to have so much writ­
ing to do at the desk in the P. O. as Mr. Kirby
did. Don't blame Kirby. It was a better watch
than a night watch on the streets.
A few words in regard to the moral aspect
of our town. Our sensitive natures are fre­
quently aroused by the insinuations and slurs
about Lyle, from those who know nothing of
us excepting what they have heard from oth­
ers. You might think from their insinuations
that as a class we were not far advanced from
the cow boy that we carried side arms and
were ready for any lawless act at any time
For tbe information of your readers allow
me to say that we have quite a number of
good people here, and they are not all of one
nationality either. The worst element that
walk our streets are from surrounding neigh
frarhoods'anrt the small towns in Iowa. It is
true many of those go armed with what
might properly be termed, in tbe language of
Southern people, a weap-on, placing the ac­
cent on tbe last syllable. It is not exactly a
revolver, still it sometimes revolves around
the owner as be loses his balance, when he
ftteps out of the place where be has been to
load, and rolls off tbe sidewalk. Wbat a pity
Satan ever introduced such ammunition into
this fair world.

The W. C. T. U. held their monthly meeting
last Sunday evening and carried out their fine
programme.
An essay on temperance, which was written
by Mrs. F. M. Johnson, willlJb found below:
We all know the object that spoke this
union into existence. We all know too
well the story of the wrongs of the liquor
traffic. In some of our homes and hearts
this blighting curse has been deeply felt.
The mission of the W. C. T. U. is to wage
increasing warfare against this giant evil
and to promote social purity whenever
and wherever occasion permits.
Our first work is prevention. Preven
tion is better than cure. To build a wall
between the unpolluted lips and the in­
toxicating is our great work and aim, and
we are determined to battle every influ­
ence that stands in our way. We know
women are considered weak, but we in­
tend to "cut and slash woman fashion"
until there is neither root or branch left,
trusting in God from whence cometh our
strength.
You know it has been said, "That when
a woman will, she will, and you may de­
pend upou it, and when she won't, she
won't, and that's the end on it." We
know that prohibition is in the range of
human possibilities (and this is the end
we labor for) and in our purpose we will
not be discouraged and as unyielding as
fate.
We have no faitii in license as a remedy
for intemperance. License laws as they
now stand area feeble compromise with
evil, entered into by those who feel that
something must be done, but are not yet
prepared to do anything effectively. We
are not willing to license anyone who
sells that which kills the body and des­
troys the soul, for which he was allowed
to pay a paltry sum not even sufficient to
support the paupers made by the busi­
ness. If the liquor sellers would only
care for the wants of their victims of the
grog-shop, they would be entitled to
some little sympathy, but they don't even
pretend to do this.
The W. C. T. U. are taking hold of the
children with a purpose of saving the
next generation (if not this, and bring
them up to be more temperate, more
truthful and more honorable. Ami when
they are sent to the legislative hails then
is when our teachings will be felt. For
we are now teaching them to hate rum,
and when the time comes for them to cast
their ballots they will dare to stand up
bravely and cast thcfi for God, home and
natiye land, no matter whether this or
that party goes to the wall, or this or that
statesman shall stand or fall if it be
necessary overwhelm them in the battle
for right. Then is when prohibition will
be successful and our curses will be turned
to praises.
During the past year we have met with
some failures as well as success. Four
states havevoted on the prohibitory amend­
ment and they have been rejected, while
on the other hand there has been several
judicial decisions in favor of the prohibi­
tory amendment, and that of the Supreme
Court declaring that the State had aright
to prevent a person from making liquor
stronger, firmer and truer than
for we are right, then
Rise! Rise! Columbia in thy power,
Whose banners wave o'er land and sea.
And in eternal strength resolve—
From this vile oursel will be free!

Training the Right.
How may a teacher help to train the
sight of her pupils?—M. C.
By training the sight is meant training
the observation—it is not the eye, but
the mind that sees. There are various
exercises for cultivating this faculty—ob­
ject lessons have this in view. The fol­
lowing suggestions appeared in our
columns a short time ago, as a thinking
exercise:
Name objects in the room that are
black, white, brown, red, etc.
Name those made of wool, paper, stone,
iron, etc.
Name the parts of the door, desk, chair,
stove, book, knife.
Name the birds pupils have seen, the
flowers, the animals.
Name kinds of knives, dishes, chairs,
insects, birds, hats, etc.
Name creatures that walk upon two
legs upon four, six, eight that swim,
fly, crawl that make noises with their
mouths and throat, that do not.
If quickness in- sight is desired, a very
good exercise is to hold objects of differ­
ent forms before the class for an instant
and then call for shape, also different
colors, cards containing figures, etc.
Have scholars close eyes, arrange a num­
ber of things on the desk, allow them to
look at them for a moment, quickly cover
with a paper or piece of cloth, call for
the objects seen by different ones.

Some Will answer: "He will swim,"
others "He will row over in a boat." Ask
them to describe the manner of rowing,

We found the school in District 57,
Udolpho, closed on Monday, on accouut
of the illness of- the teacher, Miss Wini­
fred Morgan.
District 57, Udolpho, has recently been
divided, the north half becoming apart
of District 119 Jt. At the time the di­
vision was made it was plainly under­
stood that if division was granted, anew
school house would be built upon this
side of the county line in the newly
formed district. We are informed that
an effort is now being made to take pos­
session of the old school house, remove
it across the county line and repair it. so
as to save the expense of anew building.
We hope better counsels will prevail.
The poor old house has been a disgrace
to the district for years, being little bet­
ter than a common wood-shed. It is
small, poorly
ventilated and cheaply built.
The district has received a generous share
of the state school funds on account of
the lanre attendance of pupils and has
uniformly had a very small school tax to
pay. It is a rich district and abundantly
able to erect a convenient school house
that will be a credit to the district and a
mark of enterprise. It seems hard to be­
lieve that the present effort will succeed.
Nothing but a narrow avaricious spirit
could have suggested it. In our opinion
the new district has no legal claim what­
ever upon the old house. How much bet­
ter it would be to build a commodious
school house which will be an honor to
the district and a convenience for the
pupils who attend school.

The Tunnel at L.ibby Prison.
The March Century will contain the
story of "Colonel Pose's Tunnel atLibby
Prison," told by one of the one hundred
and nine Union officers who escaped on
the night of February 9. 1864. The suc­
cessful construction of this tunnel, due
fro*n a dark coruer of the cellar of the
prison, through fifty feet of solid earth,
the only tools being two broken chisels
and a wooden spittoon in which to carry
out the dirt,—was one of the most re­
markable incidents of the war.
Colonel Rose, to whose indomitable
will and perseverance the success of the
scheme was due, is now a captain in the
16th United States Infantry, and of the
fourteen men who assisted him in dig­
ging the tunnel, eleven are still living.
The narrative in the March Century,
which is illustrated, forms one of the un
techmcal papers supplementing the War
Series, and it is said to be one of the
most romantic records that The Century
has ever printed.

Mankato Register: It is reported that
Henry George is scheming to play the
labor party in tlie interest of Democracy
next fall. Any close observer could see
long ago that George is a" scheming,
money-making fraud, who has grown
wealthy off the poor laborers while pre­
tending to general their forces. He has
proven so obnoxious that Father Mc
Glynn disclaims any further allegiance
to him. He has the interests of Henry
George at heart and that is all.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
depot at Alden was burned on Sunday
night last. The fire is supposed to have
caught from the stove pipe. The books
of the railroad and express company were
destroyed. There was no other loss of
any account, as there was bijt little
freight in the building. The old board­
ing car which has been standing on the
sidetrack at Wells and used as an ice­
house, will be taken to Alden and con­
verted into a temporary depot.
When Spring Comes
This is the way a horse and a poor blanket
look
at the
end of
winter.
Why is it that of two horse
blankets which look and feel
equally well one won't wear, at all,
and the other wears well
This Trade Mark
shows why.
Horse Blankets which are strong
and have a reputation are always
imitated in poor qualities which
look like them, but having fewer
warp threads are not as strong.
Some dealers buy these poor
imitations for a few cents less and
by saying they are "just as good,"
sell them at the same price as the
strong blankets to parties who do
not know the difference.
You cannot tell whether horse
blankets are strong by the look
or feel, as the warp threads do
not show on the face. How then
are you to know?
