Claaaa Lyceaat.
Notwithstanding the rain Friday
evening, a goodly number were
present at Maennerchor Hall, getting
there between showers, and were
amply repaid for their trouble by the
general excellence of the exercises.
All too short, was Mr. L. Phillips's
pictures of the public schools of Lon
don fifty years ago and the railroads
of those times. He promised to
freshen his memory, and continue
his descriptions.
Instead of decreasing, the meetings
of tbe Lyceum are increasing in
interest. The following programs
were announced :

Teeth extracted without pain with
laughing gas. People having bad
fitting teeth or poorly adapted in
appearance and expression will do
well to call on the doctor as he makes
the artistic construction of artificial
teeth a specialty. I use tbe patent
air chamber by which the snetion is
equally distributed over the roof of
the mouth, making a perfect fit and
causing the plate to be worn with
comfort. Gold fillings a specialty.
From one to four teeth inserted with
out a plate. Remember, in office ev

About a hundred ladies of the
city met, by invitation of Mrs. L.
Gerrard, Mrs. A. Zeigler and Mrs. M.
J. Cramer, at Mrs. Gerrard's resi
dence, Friday evening last, and from
all accounts, had an exceedingly
pleasant time. Columbus people, we
are glad to note, have acquired the
habit of taking the even teuor of
their way regardless of the weather,
which, on this occasion, was not of
tbe best. The inclemency outside
seemed, however, but to add zest to
the good things within doors. Given
comfortable parlors, congenial com
pany and a table laden with the
choicest viands, and there is no doubt
as to results.
Julius Rasmusien, the grocer on
the corner of 13th street, and Ne

has filled it up with a splendid line of
staple and fancy groceries of all
kinds, and a brilliant assortment of
tbe finest crockeryware in the city,
and all at the most reasonable prices.
Julius as is well known, takes pride
in pleating the taste of his customers,
and always gives them the very be6t,

Mrs. William Irwin, mother of W.
J. Irwin, P. M. of West Hill, has

now so as to be considered out of
danger.
Mr. L. R. Pepper has sold his farm
to a gentleman in Genoa, and expects
to start for Georgetown, Del., next
Tuesday, to join his family, who have
been in that place for over a year.
Mr. Pepper is in very poor health and
has been for two or three years, and
there is but little hope that he will
recover in that climate, so fatal to
consumption. We sincerely hope
the change may be a benefit to him.
The election on tho 3d inst, passed
off quietly. A larger vote was polled
than ever before, aside from presi
dential election, falling but 8 behind

Mr. Nels Nelson of St. Edward 'has
built a house and blacksmith shop
near Mr. Baer's, and will soon com
mence business. We understand that
Mr. Nelson is a first-class' workman
in this line, and he will receive a
warm and profitable welcome. Such
an establishment has been a longfelt
