A gang of lightning rod sharpers
have just closed a successful cam
paign among Illinois farmers. No
charge was made for the rods; they
required only the substantial gran
ger's signature testifying to the su
perior quality of the rods and man
ner of work. Many wealthy farmers
got rods and in return signed, not a
recommendation but notes for hun
dreds of dollars. After a few days
the sharpers returned and boldly de
manded checks for tha amount of
the notes, which in many instances
were given in preference to litiga-
i tion. One demand was met at. the
point of a revolver, and a $600 note
was surrendered immediately by the
sharpers. Ex.

A Bonanza for Roekville, 'if True
Dr. Sharpless, a well-to-do farmer
who lives four miles northwest o:
this city commenced about two
weeks aero difirjring a large stock
well on his farm to supply his great
amount of fine stock with water.
Last Monday afternoon the doctor
said at the depth of 25 feet below
the surface he had plenty of water
and in cleaning out the bottom dug
up something that looked like coal,
after a close examination he found
it was of the best quality. He sunk
a drill and found a 75 foot vein of
as good coal as is found anywhere
in the state. Vernon county has its
artesian wells, St- Clair county its
gold mines, but Bates beats the
world for a mining county. Come
to Roekville and Bates county
where you don't have to burn corn
stalks and cotton wood brush. Star.
Competent critics haye frequently
remarked that the author of "Ben-
Hur" had in him the elements of a
dramatist. Their judgment upon
General Lew Wallace will be sus
tained by his play, "Commodus"
in Harper's Magazine for January.
The action of the drs.ma develops
seVeral powerful scenes, the vigor
of which J. R. Wegulin, the artist,
renders with fidelity in as many il
lustrations. One of the drawings,
entitled "This Baiting thou shalt
rue," forms the frontispiece of
the Magazine. There is a sug
gestion of the Greek chorus in the
band of Bacchantes. The refrain of
their song, "On to Rome," domi
nates the whole drama; it catches to
gether in a phrase the leading thread
of the plot.

A Bad Horse Disease.
Ft Bufort, Dak., Dec. 20. An ep
idemic has broken out among; the
principal horse ranches of the Lower ,
i Yellowstone, which has become so
dangerous and is spreading with
such alarming rapidity thai it is
causicg much anxiety in this section
of the country. The disease affects ;
the glands of the throat, and, in a
majority of the cases, causes a swel
ling which extends from the point of
the jaw to the breast, making respi
ration and eating matters of great
difficulty. Thus far the favorable
open weather has saved them, bat
should a cold snap set in a great .
mortality will be the result.
