PERSONALS Messrs. O. Torrison and
John W. Barnes left for New York last
Monday, where they Will purchase two
of the largest stocks of goods ever
brought to this city.
John Robinson and wife of Green Bay
were in town last week on a visit to Bro.
Thomas. They both looked healthy and
happy,
Our old friend Thomas Robinson kind
ly introduced his cousin Mr.. Richard
Robinson who has lately arrived from
Europe, at our Office, yesterday. The
young gentleman has all the type of a
true Englishman-strong, healthy, reso-
+ lutte and true, and will soon prove good
republican citizen of This country. With
the best wishes for his welfare wherever
he may make his home, we would desire
to see him located in our midst. We
want just such men here and the more
of them, the better.
John Calvin, our former printer boy,
arrived from Chicago last Tuesday, MAX
ing glad the hearts of his relatives and
friends. He looks better than we have
seen him for good while and will en-
Joy himself here for week or so.
Mr.. McLogan, an experienced typo
and roommate of John came with the
latter and seems to enjoy the healthful
air and pleasant company of Manitowoc
to his hearts content.
Mr.. FL. Niedecken of Milwaukee is in
town and will see his many friends and
customers before going west; that man
needs no recommendation.

this morning to his family here single

BILE to married man and he is right
too.

and left again on Tuesday for Milwaukee.

to take charge of the Lake Shore Road
together with the Western as soon as the
former is ompleted-within two OF three
weeks.
Mr.. John B. Miller reached here yes
terday morning from Baraboo III rather
poor health. We hope he will now stay

perfect health again. There is no place
like Manitowoc to restore soundness of
body and vigor of mind, when injured
by the miasmatic influences of an over
heated atmosphere.
Among the departures of many of the
visitors here during this summer, we
have to announce that of five young la

piness and a speedy return are ever with
them.

University yesterday to resume his
studies he has our best wishes for the
highest success.
