him the only available room she had-a large,
pleasant front room up stairs, with two beds in
it, one being occupied by Mr.. JOS. Colwell, book

this city on Monday.

The bridge across Fox River at Dayton occu-
pied the attention OF the Board on Tuesday. A
petition was presented from citizens of Dayton
and Rutland, asking for the levy of tax on
those towns to the amount of about $4,000 for
the permanent repair Of the bridge. Remon-
strances, very numerousy signed, were also pre-
sented on the same subject The Board was also
asked TO rescind the order passed at previous
session, requiring the towns with certain assist
ance from the county, 10 erect a bridge across
Indian Creek where it is crossed by the State
road After the matter had been manipulated
by a committee, and it seemed very uncertain
what the final action Of tho Board might be on
the subject, Mr. Green, on leave, withdrew all
the papers on the subject, preferrins to take the
1915 already appropriated by the Board for the
repair of the bridge, than to run the chances of
the proposed tax.

good deal OF debate, however, in which it was
maintained that repairs in the Jail were more

as any we have heard of took place on Thursday
evening at the residence of Mr.. Newton Ward.

couple. The girls went out in a large sleigh and
gathersa up the boys, hamaing them in and out
of the sseigh, and playing the gallant through.
out certainly nimbly and gracefully as tbs
most stylish besux could have done. The only
noticeable difference was, that none of the gal
lants On this occasion smelt either Of cigars or
wh--we mean csrdamon seeds or cloves During
the dancing, the boys, of whom the girls were
careful TO have An over large proportion, looked
sheepish enough in the pleasant attitude of wall
howers' 1t is hoped they will profit by the ex-
perience. We advise the 'boys," however, not

in hooks and corners, but put on a stiff upper
lip. and duly record in a book the proposals. tley
