mans Hall on the 22d, given by the
firemen 9th place-engine compan-
les Nos. 1872. They intend parading
the streets with their engines accom-
panied by the Boscobel brass band.
Both companies are large and will
undoubtedly display their skill to
the best advantage in handling their
machines, and also in having every
thing go off pleasantly at the party.
All who attend may depend upon
having ''lively time"
The firm of Thompson Bros, who
have been doing business in the store
formerly owned by Palmer 4 Coates,
have sold out to Mr.. Ed Palmer and
Mr.. Grad Barnett. Mr.. 2. has been
until recently connected with the
firm of Palmer, Waller 4 Co, of this
place, manufacturers of slaves, head
ings, &c. Grad" who is so univer-
sally known throughout Grant and
Crawford counties, has for the past
six years been merchandising at
Wauzeka. Messrs. Palmer & Bar
nett are live, wide awake business
men, and the merchants of Boscobel,
although regretting to lose Thompson
Bros, will be pleased to see the new
firm in running order. The change
takes place March 1st.
On the morning of the 18th,
woman by the name of Hugeboom,
residing in the upper part OF town,
committed suicide by taking a large
dose of liniment which had been
standing in the house for sometime.
She died between two and three
hours after taking the poison. Du-
ring this time physician was called
in, but could be of no assistance. An
inquest was held the next day, and
the jury gave in a verdict according
to the facts. Cause not known.
Cast by bread upon the waters,
and thou shalt find it after many
days" So thinks Mr. Palmer, the

dred thousand Of the speckled beau
ties in his ponds, and thinks he can
sell at least three thousand dollars
worth this season. He is selling
small quantities now at 10 cents per
pound.

is in operation, to which all refer
with pride. Backed by Uncle Sam
and hosts Of Boscobelians, depositors
feel doubly secured

er man stepped into the cage on the
top Of the shaft, for the purpose OF
decending TO their work in the mine.
The engineer made mistake in start
ing the engine, and instead Ofiower-
ing the cage, raised it. Justly appre-
hensivc of fatal consequences if drawn
up against the pulley, they leaped
from the gage to the landing from
which they had started, but Knowles
struck his head against a post, in
doing which he was so stunned that
he fell backward into the shaft. His
body was found at the bottom of the
stump" fearful pit below the mine,
having fallen about $50 feet. The
bones of his legs were driven up into
his body. He was about 80 years Of
age, and leaves a wife and four chill

A PRoNoUNCING DICTIONARY OF
BIOGRAPHY AND MYTHoLoGY.-This
important work has now reached it's
25th part, which closes with portion
of well-written biography of Mo-
manned or Mahomet, the celebrated
religious teacher and make-belieye
prophet. 1t is truly a production
more useful and indispensable than
any other work of reference with
which we are acquainted. The BIZ
ographles are concise, full and
every way trustworthy If you want
to know how to pronounce such
names as Dumas, Disraeli, Beranger
and Chateaubriand - names that
have become almost as familiar as
household words-consult Lippin-
colts Pronouncing Dictionary. The
correct pronunciation is in all cases
plainly indicated, and no one having
wit enough to use work of its ac-
curate character can by any POSSIBLE
ity mistake the true sounds that
some of our letters have in certain
foreign proper names. In his preface
the editor says, THE only rational
course for US to adopt is to pronounce
modern names as nearly as possible
as they are pronounced by the inhab-
itants Of the respective countries to
which such names belong" The
work is to be completed in Is parts,
price so cts each. Address j b. Lip

most pleasing feature of the eve-
