NEWS AND NOTES.
In another column will be found
the account of the formation of
he new management of the Rugby
Gazette. The work begun and
continued by the late Editor, Mr.
Thos. Fardon, has not been without
its fruit in making the Rugby Ga
zette a necessity to the place and
vicinity. Very few localities of
equal population can boast of a pa
per that contained so much origi
nal well-edited matter and from
week to week supplied its readers
with such varied information with
out the aid of patent padding. The
aim ot the Rugby Publishing Com
pany will be to mantain the reputa-
ion so conscientiously won, to in
crease its value as an advertising
medium by a wider circulation; to
open its columns to information from
all sources especially, all matters of
interest in the 5th civil district and
to produce from week to week a
sheet of lively interesting reading
upon all that concern the well-being
of the people and the neighborhood;
to advocate the legitimate claims of
Rugby and the Plateau generally,
and to develop an interest in the
capabilities of the locality in those
lines of industry for which it is es
pecially fitted. :
The interest in the paper, by its
numerous well-wishers is clearly
hown by the fact, that already
one-hulf of the capital stock is sub
scribed. But the cood work must
not stop here, we want our sheets
rilled with advertisements, our sub
scriuers increased ten-told, our
friends anywhere and everywhere to
ta lk ,us . up. ;.I3y . doing this, their
own interests as citizens, merchants
and property holders will be
maintained and the bonds ' of our
friendship extended. We want
long pull, a strong pull and a pull
altogether and we shall win.
Lieutenant Greely with his five
heroic associates in the Lady Frank
lin Cay Expedition, touched their
fatherland once more, after a period
of three years distinguished by great
achievement and dreadful suffering.
Nothing can be more affecting than
the simple story of their rescue,
from the perils of the paleo-cristic
sea. Their reception by the Ameri
can people at Portsmouth N. II.,
was worthy of a great nation who is
proud of her sons. Never was any
thing so glorious, and hearty, so
sympathetic and genuine. This re
joicing that the dead are alive again
the lost are found though local, is
not limited to the narrow confines
of a single town, it is National and
representative. It conveys the
strong throbbing pulse of the nation
whose anxieties had . been wrought
to an unbearable pitch of excite
ment. The only dark bar across
the escutcheon of the day is a pun
gent sorrow for Greely's brave com
panions who ,have been brough
home dead. '. '
Mr. W. B. McKinney, formerly
ot J) ayettevmo, . lenn., but now
editor of the Salida, Co.,Datfy News,
was assaulted by a police- officer in
that city last Monday. , The police
man struck McKinney withou
warning witu orass-knucuies and
severely injured him.- Mr. Mc
Kinney is a worthy gentleman, who
has many friends and relatives in
this State. His offense was his ex
posure of the corrupt "ring whic
rules Salida, an exposure which he
proposes to continue to prosecute
vigorously. Banner.
Mr. McKinney has our sympathy
as every "man has, who seeks by
legitimate means to expose bribery
i and corruption. We wish hiia well.
The reception of Lieutenant
Greely and his brave rescuers was
alike creditable to the heart and
brain of America. There are times
in the history of nations when its
ife blood thrills with wild delight,
and the flowing joy bubbles on every
ip and floats in every eye. The
ttle band of Arctic heroes, deci
mated though they were by the
accidents of their ; situation, stood
shoulder to shoulder in , suffering,
sickness, death and faithful unto
he last in that performance, ot the
sacred trust ; imposed upon them;
carried the national flag of America,
now the forlorn hope of the Arctic
world, one step nearer the goal.
he whole world cries out "well
done," and the mother country with
the snows of ten centuries on , her
calm brow rejoices in the daughter,
usty as young.taking up the banner
of scienco antl discovery, and plant
ing it nearer the weird and fascina
ting pole. Lieutenant : Greely has
won his place in every sympathetic
teart, as one of the heroes of Amer
ican adventure. War cannot 1 claim
all the world's heroes, its favored
sons rise in the Nation's firmament
midst cries and tears and garments
rolled in blood. These are the
sterner heroes, for in solitude the
most awe-inspiring, darkness, long
and wearisome; amidst perils of
w.iters and the Ice-floe; amid cruel
and crushing disappointments and
deferred hopes; alone.with no inspir
ation, save that of manhood and
duty, they endured the rigors of the
North, bore the : terrible sufferings
of a Cape Sabine winter, and carried
the flag.
Never did men more richly de
serve of the country the honors
daced at their feet. "No braver
deed was ; ever recorded than this
gallant rescue. ; It is an achieve
ment honorable alike to officers and
men." Under pressure of necessity,
and imperative' orders, the vessels
crossed Melville Bay and neared
Cape Sabine; and, the horrors of
Starvation Camp sanctioned the
hot haste and terrible energy. Few
stories are more pathetic than the
rescue of those dying heroes. Lieu-
enant Greely, like the gallant De-
Long was ' reading with feeble.
flickering breath, the prayers for
the dying, and had abandoned
hope. 1 Slowly the Ice King, tight
ened his toils, and, alone with his
God, this Great Heart of Arctic
discovery prepared to die. Sud
denly the. loud whistle of the Thetis
broke in upon his solitude, the
American eagle swooped tenderly
on tho half-pulseless . frame, and
bore it swiftly to friends and rest
and peace; and ere it was too late,
this royal band of men Columbia's
braves! were saved. Seldom has
anything stirred the public mind so
deeply as this has done. The Syren
of the North, once more fills the
air with her strange, mysterious,'
fascinating melody, and men are
imbued . with the daring spirit of
discovery, or the kindlier resolution
to seek and save those which were
lost. Lockwood is cone, "but his
soul is marching on" and being dead
he speaketh more powerfully than
when alive: then he swayed a na
tion, now a , world.' These gallant
fellows did not go North for any
personal ambition, they went in the
interest of science, of knowledge of
humanity. Their work was well and
faithfully done, and its results care
fully preserved. Nor did they cease
till coasts were outlined that here
tofore, lived only in the eye of God.
Their work cannot be too highly ap
preciated; "it entitles them to the
highest consideration at homo aud
abroad, as successful contributors
to the world's store of knowledge;
and their labors, achievements, und most encouraging, showing an in
heroic conduct, reflect honor upon 'crease of 4,10,27 bushels uva
the American name."
The World's Exposition that is to
be opened at New Orleans, is so far
perfected in all its departments
that it is now in order to state that
it will be the largest world's fair
ever held. The buildings are lar
ger than those erected for tho
Philadelphia centennial. The ex
hibits out-numher those of any pre
vious exposition. Each of tho
States, except - possibly one or two,
will be represented by an exhibit.
Congress has made a loan of 1,
000,000 in favor of this centennial
exposition. The United States
government will make a special ex
hibit, the largest it has ever at
tempted, costing hundreds of thou
sands of dollars, and to that end a
mammoth building is being erected
in the group of exposition buildings.
The Mexican government has ap
propriated $200,000, and will erect
a special building for its unique
display. The Central American re
publics have been aroused from
their long slumber and will be fully
represented for the first time among
the great nations of the earth. At
the exposition one may learn more
about the natural resources of those
regions than by an ordinary visit to
Mexico or Central America. . To
lovers of music a visit , to the Ex
position will be highly gratifying as
there is a music hall capable of
seating 11,000 persons and a stage
large enough to hold COO musicians.
Grand concerts will be given during
the season. Besides this the , fact
ought to be known that New Or
leans is the only city in the Union
that has had an established opera
during half a century. Nor is this
all. Strangers think themselves
well paid by makiug a visit of
pleasure to the quaint old city at
any time. During the carnival sea
son tens of thousands of visitors
flock to the Crescent city to see the
gorgeous pageants prepared annual
ly at an expense to the citizens of
from $100,000 to $200,000. This
lavish expenditure of money is for
the gratification of strangers and
home folks, and the displays are
absolutely free. The citizens of the
Southern metropolis who do such
large things, in such a large way,
have pledged their word to make
their Worlds Fair the crowning
event of the century and they will
do it.
The Illinois Agricultural Society
calls attention to the fact that Ma
son fruit j;trs have been sent to that
State, packed in straw foul with
Canada thistle, and advises that the
stuffing be burnt. Should any, of
these jars find their way here, we
advise the canning factory to be
careful; verb, sap you know.
Is there not something wrong in
