valleys. During his tour through
three counties he failed to find a sin
gle piece of poor corn. The oat-crop
of that country, he says, is simply im
mense, and to verify this, he says be
fonnd many fields where a man could
step from one shock to another in go
ing over a twenty acre field."

Columbus, Tuesday, Aug. 221. The
Burlingtou (Iowa) Hawkeye of June
221. 1SS2, speaks in the following
complimentary terms of Batcheller &
Doris' Great Inter-Ocean Show.
The streets of Burlington were
thronged at an early hour yesterday
morning to witness the grand entree
and parade of the great Inter-Ocean
Circus, notwithstanding thfbreaten
ing aspect of the weather. During
the early morning hours the sky was
overcast with black and threatening
clouds, which foreboded a dismal,
rainy day, but toward eleven o'clock
Old Sol made his appearance, which
gladdened the hearts of our country
cousins who had come in from every
direction to witness the parade and
circus, expecting to see something
grand and wonderful. Nor were they
dibappoiuted. The street parade was
exceptionally good much better than
has passed through the streets ot Bur
lington lor many a day. The parade
over the crowds surged through the
streets to the tents, which were
packed in an incredible short space ol
time, which Burlington having been
visited by two circuses within the
past month was something wonder
ful. The immense audience evinced
their approbation of the different acts
by loud aud uproarious applause, aud
were loath to leave when the last act
was finished.
In the evening the tents were liter
ally jammed with people who came
to see, aud did see the finest circus on
the road. Batcheller & Doris have,
without question, tho finest circus
that ever visited Burlington, and have
more real attractions than any circus
now on the road ; chief among which
is Millie Christine, the two-headed
girl, who can truthfully be called the
eighth wonder of the world. The
Hawkeye representative had a brief
iuterview with the lady last evening,
and found her to be a very charming
conversationalist. This is her second
visit to Burlington, she having been
exhibited at Union Hall seme twelve
years ago. She stated that this was
her first appearance with a circus.
She is a very graceful dancer, and ex
ecutes the schottische, polka or waltz
with equal ease. -Christine has a so
prano voice, Millie a contralto, aud
they sing duets together with exqui
site taste and sweetness.
Of the performers, mention may be
made of the bareback riding of Wm.
Showles, whose thrilling feats brought
forth thunders of applause. In his
several acts he stands unrivalled.
Miss Ella Stokes, the imcomparable
bareback equestrienne, is an artist in
her line. Mr. Jonny Patterson, the
genial clown, and by the way, one of
the best clowns in the world, kept the
audience in a good humor in his own
peculiar way. If space would allow
we would be pleased to give each and
every performer his due, but as it will
not, the Hawkeye can simply say that
the Batcheller & Doris Great Inter
Ocean Circus is first-class in every
respect, aud recommend it as such to
amusement loving people. 1
For the Journal.
The Institute.
Yes! Teachers, attend the Institute.
Bring with you your first, second and
third readers ; your mental and prac
tical arithmetics; your common
school book-keeping; your geogra
phy ; primary and common school
bpellers, and plenty of writing mate
rial. These are what every boy and
girl should thoroughly understand.
During the entire institute keep on
the collar and tug of mental labor, in
acquiring aptness to teach the above,
instead of spending so much time with
the higher branches, and discussing
.topics beyond the reach of our com
mon schools, as is too frequently the
case in teacher's institutes.
G. W. Stevens.
The police, Messrs. Brandt and
Clother, made a raid upon the club
room at Louis Stracke'sone night last
week, and, by strategy, got into the
inner-sanctuary, of that shrine of
mammon, so to speak. The lights
were immediately blowed out, on the
cry of "cops," and Mr. Brandt was
struck several times, but not seriously
injured. When he began to shoot,
however, it was thought best not to
strike him over the head any more.
If anybody wants any further infor
mation they can search it out on the
records of tho Police court, if they
will. It is barely possible that there
were one or two innocent lambs in
the crowd whose white fleeces may
yet be washed clean by non-publicity
of this matter.
A Card.
My daughter being afflicted with a
Bore eye from which cause I feared
she would loose her sight, I placed
her under the care of Dr. A. B.
Wheeler and now, after three weeks
treatment, her eye is almost well, and
her eight restored. I do not hesitate
in pronouncing Dr. Wheeler as an
excellent and thorough physician and
oculist, and advise all my friends
who are afflicted to put themselves
under his treatment.

The other Suuday evening, after
Mr. Gray had preached from, "Be ye
not weary in well doing," Mr. Smith
stepped up to him, and said : "Sir, I
have been thinking about that belfry.
Have it built just as you want it, and
send the bill to me, and I will settle
it. The pastor gladly and thankfully
arranged the matter; the belfry is
built and paid for, aud the bell rings
out cheerfully, the hours of service,
and invites all together with his peo
ple to worship the Lord.

K. 1. Sheehan, of Columbus.
BY MRS. M'CANJi.
Stricken down in his .strong manhood,
With his dear ones standing by,
Like a soldier tired and weary
He passed uway with a siirh.
Pause by this jiruvc i i t.ieut,
And do not hurry away,
For no truer heart, is sleeping
'Neath the churchyard to-day.
Year will vanish, how slowly!
To the friends he has left behind,
And oft as they feel lonely
They'll miss his will so strong.
When death in a solemn whisper,
Called his soul away,
31 ay we hope, he peace was grauted
In that land of endless day.

The twenty-tivc-year old husband was
made to promise that on wash days he
would eat cold beans for dinner, without

enough to do that. On asking the wife to
promise to sew on the loose buttons of
her consort, she replied that she would
when 9he had time.
Objections to the marriage, if any, being
called for, Elder II. J. Hudson protested
that there was no certificate authorizing
this ceremony. The officiating clergyman
promptly ruled him out of oader, and
proceeded with the ceremony, afterwards
making out the certificate of marriago In
much the usual form, adding that grand
mother and grandchild were present, and
giving their consent.
After the ceremony, refreshments for
all were served, supplemented by tinely
llavored cigars for those of the gentlemen
who desired them. The remainder of the
evening was spent in social intercourse,
and all went home well pleased.
