should Judge him to be alive, wide
Awake, spirited business man, and
,thet his character is in perfect sym :

y We hope Mr.. RoTHRIcK will be liber-
MAY patronized, and ehcouraged to
long remain with us. What little
dealing we have had with the gentle.
man we have found him to be cour-
teous, obliging and frank, and for
those qualities we believe he is rap
idly establishing reputation. He
las a good and varied assortment OF

Mr.. WIN. S. WELLS, of Willow
Springs, having been suspicioned by
some citizens of Lawrence with being
implicated in the Lynn county mur-
ders, went to Lawrence one day last
week to clear himself of the charge,
when upon the affidavit of Mr.. HAIR
GROVE, one of the wounded victims,
he was arrested and incarcesated in
the Douglas 90. Jail, to await an ex-
animation.

There will be another Great Sale

be the last chance Of purchasing lots
