the more popular this year.
' Orleans Press : On Saturday we had

Fairficld township. Charley at present
has ' charge of a section on the B. & M.
west of McCook , near Stratton , and
came down from there to visit his fam
ily and look at his stock over Sunday.
The pavement along the lots of J.
Beaver , W. C. LaTourettc and D. Ken
dall on Main avenue need attention.
Walking along those lots is unpleasant
and dangerous , not taking into account
the appearance. Mere direction of at
tention to this matter ought to call
forth immediate action. They need re
pairing ' badly.
Mrs. Vincent of Arapahoc is prepar
ing her different music classes up the

WOMEN are women. That is one

them. No matter where they may be

them , they will flee from a spider and

S.
their sex is greatly underestimated and
unfairly criticised by the men , yet the } '
criticise each other unsparingly. They
seem to have no charity for one of their
own sex who may step beyond the pre
scribed limits in which they are requir
to walk , and apparently take special R.
delight in kicking those who happen to S.
down. Their love and pity is all
the sterner sex. For them they
iu
have the broadest charity , forgiving hn
again and again offenses they would not
once forgive in one of their own. Their .
ing
troubles are all about men. not business
affairs of state ; their solicitude for
comfort and success , and their tears
his woes. A man can not be thus CO
because he is a man. A woman is so ra

IT was a sneaking reporter of the
New York Times that made the first
publication concerning the mode by
which the unfortunate survivors of the
Greely expedition prolonged their lives
until they were discovered and rescued
by vessels sent out for the purpose.
The Times deserves the execration of
Christendom for its ghoul-like tunnel
ling into the graves of the dead and the
sad secrets of those who suffered thu
last extremities in the frozen regions of
the north. It was a dastardly deed to
uncover the bones of tlm men who per
ished for the purpose of gloating over
the mortification of the living. No
greater misfortune can overtake a civi
lized man than to be tormented and
crazed by hunger until his animal in
stincts drive him to'thc horror and des
pair thnt cunnibali.sin nu > ; tns to men
reared in the United States. No decent
and humane man desires the veil to be
withdrawn and a public spectacle made
of such things. .lournal.
