CHATSWORTH, ILLINOIS, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER H, 1901.

LISTON.On Thursday morning at three

o’olook, at his late home at Hammond, Ind., ooourred the death of Alex. B. Liston, formerly a resident of this place. His doatb was caused by kidney trouble. Deoeased was 42 years of age and leaves a wife and tive children toauourn his demise. He was married about nineteen years ago to Miss Kate Domm, daughter of Fred Domm, formerly of this vicinity. Mr. Liston was a brother of Mesdames J. S. Sleeth and J. A. Smith, who reside just west of town. He left this vicinity about live years ago. The funeral will occur tomorrow (Sat­urday) morning at the -Baptist church in this city at 10 o’olook. Interment at the Piper City cemetery.

NOTHNAGLE.Word announcing the sudden death

of Mrs. Edwin Notbnagle, of Collom, which occurred on Thursday, was a great shock to her many friends here. Mr. Nothnagle was engaged in business here at one time, and he and his wife made their home in this oity. Her death is attributed to heartfailure. Mrs. Notbnagle was formerly MIsb Mary Carey, and conducted a millinery busi­ness in Cullom for many years. The funeral ooourred this morning at the Cullom Catholio church.

M'MANUb.Clarence McManus, aged 19 months

and five days, died at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. P. McManus, at Aurora, on Tuesday morning of obolera- infantum. The funeral was held on Thursday at eleven o’clock at the Cath­olio eburch at Pontiae, in fehich place Mr. McManus has a brother. Mr. and Mrs. MoManus have many friends here who extend sympathy.

The Leader Man Errs.“It is stated that at the Chatswortb

reunion of the old settlers yesterday, about half of the large orowd was com­posed of those gdlitleman who are seek- au|| jiiiuiiu uSluoa," onjra iue ToriliaC L ea d er of Friday last. Perhaps if broth­er Clark, of the Leader, would gut over into this part of the country occasional­ly he would discover thdit there are peo­ple living in these parts, and that a few office-seekers from the county seat oount Only one each when they get over here, even though they do constitute “about half” the population when reckoned ac­cording to Mr. Clark's limited aeqaint- ance in ibis looality. Poutiao editors seldom visit the south-eastern part of the county, and as a consequenoe some of them seem to think that there is noth­ing of Livingston oounty exoept Pontiao and immediate vioinity. Had brother

, Clark been preseot at the old settlers’ pionio last Thursday, and been intro­duced to the many substantial and re­presentative people from 80 miles in every direction he would not have been guilty of making this absurd statement.

No School Wednesday.The publio schools ware dismissed

on Wednesday on aooount of the Fair- bury fair. With all doe respeot to the fair and its ' promoters, is it not an in­justice to the pupils who do not care to attend or are notin a position to go, to dismiss the schools? Is not the pupil who desires to pursue his studies with­out interruption deserving of more con­sideration than the one who wishes to attend a fair or any other publio enter- tainmeot? ■ ■■Faverakte Weather, Attendance Heed.

The Evangelioal bush meetings, which commenced on Wednesday with servi­ces in the churches here, in German- ville, and at Charlotte, opened at Shaf­fer's grove, south Of town, on Thursday morning. They bare been favotnd with most propitious weather, and the attend-

Who Is I t !Several instances have been called to

ou r notice recently of a person or p e r­sons who allow th e ir cariosity to get the be tte r of the ir judg m en t , and forget th a t the do ings of o the r people in the ir own homes do no t in any way concern them an d are none of tbe ir business. Som e years ago a re s iden t o f this p lace was d iscovered to be indu lg ing his dep raved sense of curiousness by peeking into the w indows of residences after night, and before be had par t ic ipa ted in his d iv e r ­sion very long his iden ti ty was learned and he was given his ohoioa between leaving tow n o r ta k in g the consequences of rem ain ing . His d ep a r tu re followed very shortly and without cerem ony. W hoever the pa r ty o r parties m ay be who have been seen s tan d in g in sh a d ­ows and peer ing in to the w indow s of hom es evenings this sum m er, it will be well for them to p u t a s top to tbeir m aneuvers , for th e ir identity is ce rta in to be learned. A ny person who would s toop to such low-lived practices, w heth ­er for a m u se m e n t o r to gra tify a d e ­praved curiosity , is deserv ing to be dea l t with as any o th e r low c u r should be who m ight in su lt a lady.

A Decided Success.T he c e m e n t w alks which have been

laid in the no r th p a r t of town are c a u s ­ing favo rab le co m m en ts from all who see them . C o n tra c to r K am erc r and bis force of w o rk m en a re doing excellen t w ork on the w alks an d the people who a t first were r a th e r skeptical about ag ree ing to have the w alks m ade past tb e ir p rem ises a re now am ong the m ost a rd e n t in the ir w ords of com m endation . N o th in g which has been done in years has added so g rea tly to any p a r t of tow n as the lay ing of these w a lks on no r th F o u r th s tree t and Maple street. All will a d m it th a t the expend itu re of money necessary to p rocure such im ­p ro v em en ts is so m ew h a t burdensom e to som e property -ow ners , bu t when the du rab il i ty of the im p ro v em en t is taken in to considera t ion the walks a re the cheapes t ob ta inable , as they will last for gen e ra t io n s and necessita te no ou tlay of m oney for repairs .

C. B. Tom baugh to R esign.Y es te rday a f te rn o o n the d irec to rs of

the N a t iona l B ank of P o n t ia c held a special m eeting for the purpose of e lec t­ing a cash ie r to fill the vacancy caused by the dea th of J o se p h Spiro. The se­lection unan im o u s ly fell upon C. R. T om baugh , ou r c o u n ty su p e r in ten d en t of schools. T h e position has therefo re been tendered to him and be has decid­ed to accept. He will therefore tender his res igna tion as su p e r in ten d en t to the board of superv iso rs nex t week when the sam e shall meet. Mr. T om baugh is ex- peoted to begin his du ties as cash ie r N o ­vem ber 1. W hite the position is a new one to him, yet he is a man of good ex ­ecutive ability an d it is a lm ost a fo re ­gone conclusion th a t be will be success­ful In th e duties of his new office. —Pon­tiac Leader, W ednesday.

Morgan Ryan, of this city, sold to El Paso parties last winter started at tbe Fairbury fair on Wednesday, but broke his bobbles and fell and was drawn froifa the race by bis owners. Tbe horse has been very unfortunate all season. He has been started a number of times, bnt bas never succeeded in winning any­thing worth mentioning, having been tbe viotim of accidents when his be­havior Indicated that be might win. We understand that hia owners are about disgusted, as the horse, when not tbe victim of accidents, is what is termed a “bad aotor” when in company.

T h e re is a genera l law in th is state p roh ib it ing the killing of all wild b irds excep t a few special kinds, like chicken hawk, spa rrow s , etc. Unless specitio perm ission is given to b u n t these p ro ­hibited birdB d u r in g p a r t ic u la r seasons, you have no r igh t to do so a t all. The revision of the law in 1901 fixes no tim e when you a re perm it ted to kill quail, there fo re you have no r igh t to kill them a t any tim e and there .is uo open season. I shall g o v e rn /m y se lf acco rd ing to the above and any person killing qu&il in th is ooun ty m ay expect p rosecution if the fac ts a re b rough t to my a tten tion .

Millions of Women use C u t ic u r a S o a p In the form of baths for annoying Irritations, inflammations, and excoriations, for too free or offensive perspiration, In the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many antiseptic purposes which readily sug­gest themselves to women and mothers.

C u t ic u r a S o a p combines delicate emollient properties derived from C u t ic u r a , the great skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingredients, and the most refreshing of flower odours. No other medicated soap is to be compared with it for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair, and hands.

PAINT IN THE FALL * Fall painting is best; the paint gets well seasoned be­fore the hot sun gets busy.

You want your paint to last, and to protect your prop­erty. If you use Devoe ready paint, you’ll have both.

Lasts longer than lead and oil; costs less. Devoe is a safe name in paint things.
