, Es&. gee Horton, of Elk J
ville, died last Sunday, after
an illness of some time. We
have not learned the particu
lars of his life and death. He
was rvar 85 years old and was
among our best and substantial
citizens. How 'fast the old
landmarks-are passing away !
It is jaot our fuss, but it 4
looks like that while the im
maculate republican leaders
are washing through the Win-4

efficient men as Capt. Peden
could step up and take charge
of the party helm. But in mean

be he who jF?t cries, holdj o

Bock Creek ; township last week
atthe ripe old age of 82 jrears.
He had been in declining
health, for three months, and
gradually the lamp of life
grew dim. and went out forever.
He was one of the splendid old
landmarks of the county, who
are fast crossing over the river.
While the county commis
sioners are looking after the
improvement of the court house
and other county properties,
it might be a good idea to in
vestigate concerning certain
lotS'in-town formerly used for
hitching: purposes. We have,!
been-informed that originally
there were two lots given the
county to be used only for pub.
lie purposes, hitching, camp-1
ing, etc. Several years ago
the county commissioners, sold
these for a-small sum, tyit if
we understand the mattorTight
tfye commissioners had no au
thority whatever to sell this
property, as every citizen . in
the county had an equitable
nd equal right therein. It 4

tle children-, or how a tape worm, 300
feet long, can ' get in and exstst and
grow inside of a man, as it sometimes
happens. They may, welL wonder, for
it is a great mystery. However, many
now know from experience that Moth

inal worms and greatly improve the
health after the worms have been des
troyed and expelled. It is absoluteiy
a harmless remedy to take, and as it
