An Explanation Demanded and We are Forced to Show Down. I I.ct the Guilty Ones Stand from Under. laist we week pu'l sl.el the following squib: 'Wo understand that there are more than one married man in t liis town carrying around in their pockets the picture of a handsome young woman, and tii it woman is not his wife either. We don't care to call any names at this time but we will specify next week if any one wishes." This created a considerable stir upon the sheets, and by actual count we were a>ked by twenty different persons to name the party or parties, and we have no doubt that some of the parties had the picture that we had reference to in their pocket at the time they approached IIS. Well, be that as it niav, we hope tliev did, wnd if all '.lie jieople who spoke to us idiout the matter are guilty of carrying the lecture the town is in even liettei sliajie than we were aware. The picture r? tVrred to is that of a very handsome young wpman, and if you are not in im.-se.sioii of it you will wish you ware. The youne lady's name is Mas Anna 1 Wiuict.s Williams, of l'ltiludelph'a an I her picture ornaments one side of every silver dollar. Hope you don't leel had about it. Knights of Damon. Mr. C.

Wo are very sorry to see that diphtheria is petting a foothold in town, | and wo four that if it is not checked I soon it will become epidemic. There I nre several new cases in town. Seveti j houses were quarantined with the ! lings Saturday. We are glad to say, I however, that on account of the 1 prompt work of lite physicians there has been few cases that resulted fatul.

This disease among the little chilf dren is as much to be dreaded as the Small Pox. There is also several cases of fever t about town. t It is absolutely necessary that contagious diseases should be reported to the proper authorities, so that c' proper quarantine measures can be 1 promptly taken. Lives are too precious for any evasion and no excuse will be accepted. This must be done - or the public will know the reason e why.
