by Mr.. Mason in company with Mr..

too dry for it, it is looking finely.
Strawberries were gone except few
Jucundas, but red and black raspberries
are coming on rapidly and vii. soon be

country considerably changed his feel

Legislature, and now stands firm friend
to the heroes of the 18th amendment.

SEWING MAcHINEs.-Most every lady in
the country has her preference in the sewing
machine line, and there are almostsas many
different machines as there are different
tastes On the whole, however, weincline
to the belief that the Singer is the best for all
work, and is the simplest in construction,
having very little machinery to get out OF re-
pair, and is easily run. Messrs. Wilkins q
sherman, 13l Dearborn street, Chicago, are
agents for the Singer and several other ma
chimes, and are we'll known as coed, straight
forward and honorable firm. Any person in
this vicinity having business to transact in
their line would do we'll to siye them call.
We have dealt with them cad know them to
be good. They sell their nachines for cash,
and by installments, and we believe keep
machines TO rent. osa@

reach him he drowned.
The only description of him that
.,sfs1 7i1 1hs aecertained was that he wore
a blue sack coat and light coiored
soft felt hat, AID appeared to be about
thirty.fve years old. He was noticed
BY the Watchman on tbe wharf boat,
who paid but little attention to him,
as he walked about the boat, until
Just az the report Of the gun on tias
Morning Star vas fired, he heard q
splash, and was told that he man had
fallen overheard. The Watchman
made every effort to reach him with
an oar, but failed, and the man, who
fell from the bow Of the boat, sunk
when about abreast Of the stern
There was no effort made to recOvei
the body. no one seeming TO b
charged with that duty.
