COMMITTEE REPORTS.

Kehaol Will Oe Tmichtat Old Ntand
On or about Jannary 28th a
meeting was called in the
court house with regard to
erecting a new modern school
building on the lot known as
the Concord Union. , There
was a committee of citizens
appointed at that meeting
charged with the duty otrais
ing theriecesaary funds and
of erecting said building,
which they were to rent to
Rev. J H Lippard. This com
mittee secured the contract
with the trustees of the prop
erty, which was necessarv for
the consumption of thV plan.
On Wednesday the 7th,
this committee called'a mpt
ing of the irustees and re
ported tHat they were unable
to secure the necessary funds
for the purpose and asked the
trustees to release them from
their part o the contract
This was acceded to and there
upon Rey. J H LipDard gTace
fully waived I all right arid
claim which he had to the
property by virtue of the cons
tract made by the committee
with the trustees.
We are informed that Prof.
Jay Lentz will conduct the
Concord High School in the
building where it has been
conducted for the past number
of years.
Millions Given Away.
It is certainly gratifying to the
public to know of one concern in
tho land who are not afraid to be
generous to the needy and suffer
ing. The proprietors of Dr. King's
New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds, have given away,
over tsn million trial bottles of this
great medicine; and have the satis
faction of knowing it has absolutely
cured thousands of- hopftless cases.
Asth ma, Bronchitis, Hoarseness
and all diseases of the Throat
Chest and Lungs are surely cured
by it. Call at P. B. Fetzer's drug
tore and get a trial bottle free. Reg
ular size 50c. and $1. Every bottle
guaranteed, or price refunded.
Bluff or Blander.
Can Mr, Wm J Bryan reals
ly think casting his ' destiny
into the hands of Altgeld will
add popularity to his cause
or increase confidence in hims
Belf No man in the political
arena enjoys so little public
confidence today as this man
Altgeld. Surely Mr, Bryan
is playing a great game of
bluff or he is losing his head
altogether. TimessVisit or.
