UCommissioners' Court has been
in session this week, and a large
amount of business has been trans.
acted, principally concerning roads
A large number ofhouses and lots were
offered to the Commissioners for Jail
purposes, nearly everybody in town
being willing to sell out-if they
could get price enough. No purchase
has yet been made, the Commission
ers seeming to think that "there is
luck in leisure" which we have no
doubt in this case will be true, for
most OF the prices asked are too high.

Mills, in this paper. The establishment
under the liberal and intelligent manage
ment of Mr. Joseph Shields, the proprietor
has grown to proportions unexpected 10 It's
most sanguine friends, and is now one oil
the best concerns in the west. At the great
woolen exposition, held in Chicago, from
the 4th to the 7th of last August, Shields
goods were exhibited in competition with
the goods from eighty other mills in the
northwest, and received the highest encomi-
ums of the press, the people and the com
| mittees. The following is an extract from
the report of the committee:
"Mr, Joeeph Shields, of Davenport, Iowa,
makes large display of 100 pieces Of doeskins
and cassimeres, the styles OF which were excel

RATS RATS l.-Saloon keepers who are
annoyed by old bummers who never miss
drink or pay a cent, might learn thing or
two from Schenectady saloon keeper who was
greatly annoyed by loafers sitting about his
premises to sleep off the effects ofbad fwhis'
Ky. He caught and tanned number ofrats,
and trained them to run across the floor. A
sitter wakes up and sees the rats running,
and calls attention to the fact when he is
told that there are no rats there. This
frightens the man, who thinks he has got
the tremens, and he quickly disappears from
the scene.
