TRIFLES. — Saturday and Sunday Sp last were decidedly unpleasant days; ' S the wind blew a hurricane and the rain g fell in torrents, and many buildings in town supposed to be waterproof, E "sprang a leak" in the roof, much to the ; n annoyance of the inmates. Thea churches were thinly attended on Sun- I p day. White frosts are of nightly.oc- it currence, and a small flurry of snow o was experienced the other day. The h useless lamp posts around town should he be cut down; it could be done in an w hour or two. is G to qu of ho Th tin M M of da ch to sli syl ha Ta h ne Hu sto Cr ing the Ma A. lat OV of wi the bee we do W a 131781N1 404 OrA4M1E,-.•ikt leatke Praut,. ;formerly with the late Clinton Organ qo,, has branght out Mr Wiggginton's, Interest in the ,flrin of Hill & Wigginton, Mu is well and favorably known in WWII andthe new Arm will no doubt continue to receive its share of trade,; ACC 1 ENx,•'-The ,Grand Thing au.. thorities cannot, secure better light at the station too quickly. On Saturday evening, as ;lilies Hine, (who had just returned from Chicago)°was walking along the platform, she slipped off the end in the darkness, and hurt herself soseverely that station agent Pattison kindly came to her relief, and drbve her home. It is very dangerous on the platform at night, and the authori- tiee should remedy this evil at pace. A iRBMARKinLE OcCURRENCI3.—_ Twenty-three years ago, while Mr Will. Jackson was cleaning a pane of glass, he shoved his hand through it, cutting his wrist by the broken glass, After the wound healed up it would troub'e him more or less, though little atten- tion was paid to it. • The other day a small sore broke out on his hand, and after festering for a couple of days he pulled out of it a small piece of glass, which he has evidently been carrying about all these years. COMING BAOK,—We understand that Mr. William Taylor, of Minneapolis, has been offered and has accepted the position of general agent of the Con- federation Life Insurance Company for the county, and will take up his residence in Clinton. He is the secor d son of Mr William Taylor, of town, and for several years has held the re- sponsible position of receiving clerk for the American Express Co., in Min- neapolis. The Confederation Life is securing the services or a young roan of enterprise and ability, who will, we feel sure, look well after its interests.

EXCEEDINGLY GRATIFIED.—At the World's Fair, last week, a NEW ERA representative had a pleasant inter- view with His Honor Lieut. Governor Kirkpatrick, and his amiable and popu- • lar wife. They both expressed in the warmest manner, the pleasure they had during their short stay in Clinton, and His Honor alluded particularly to the gratification it gave them to be able to meet the people in their own spheres and upon a common footing. On being assured that greater prepara- t*ons would have been made fo their reception, had it been known that Lady Kirkpatrick would accompany him, the Lieut. Governor replied that "the welcome could not have been any more generous or cordial than it was, no matter what preparations had been made," and he wanted again to ex- press, through the NEw ERA, his kind- est feelings of appreciation. MISSING.—The friends of Mr John Hunter, of the London road, are very much concerned over his whereabouts, and can get no trace whatever of him. Last Thursday evening he left home, without informinrg; any one as to his intentions, and although searching parties have been out daily sceuring the neighborhood, and telegrams• have been sent in every direction, he is as completely lost as if the earth had swallowed him up. He invested some money in Montana silver mines, not a very large sum, and the loss of this. or some other unknown cause has, seem- ingly, turned his mind. Ile was a very quiet young man, not given to any in- discretions, respected by everybody, and his friends do not know what con - elusion to arrive at. While afraid that exposure to Saturday night's storm may', have been fatal, they are still in hopes' that he will turn up all right. He was a member of the Ma- sonic fraternity, and his brethren have sent a description of him all over, with the request that.if he be found, to care far him and let his friends herb know. He was in Montana last winter and spring, and it is barely passible that he ,may- have gone there, THE. CLINT NEW In the Millinery Department we're more than busy.
