NJ. L. Chuch in this place on Sabbath
next, morning and evening.
We accidentally neglected to give
the names Of the School Directors
chosen at last weeks election, who
we're S. J. Wolcott and L. L. Hackett.
The Wooden Wedding at Law
rsnco's OH Thursday evening last was
well attended, and various appropriate
presents were received by the host and
hostess. Good music was on hand,
and the "Weddingers" enjoyed them
selves in the "mazy whirl" until a late
hour, when they departed feeling that
they had been we'll entertained.
We would call attention to the
new advertisement of the Superior
Lumber Co Store, which appears to-
day. 1t is very comprehensive, and
embraces almost Everything that
family needs" and we are assured
that "the half has not been told"
Give this Store call and you will not
come away empty.
The advertisement of L. A. Bald.
win, Esq, Of TidouIe, appears for the
first time in our paper, this week. Mr..
Baldwin is well known in our county
as a superior gunsmith, and q gentle
man whom it is a pleasure to meet. If
you want good work, good guns, good
fishing tackle, or, in fact anything in
his line, you cannot do better than to
call on him.
We understand that arrangements
are being made to secure services in
the Universalist Church every other
Sabbath, aud that operations will be-
gin soon. Rev. o. b. Clark will be
pastor of the organization. This
church has been occupied by the
Catholics for something over four
years. We do not know whether both
denominations are to occupy the
church, but suppose not.
The river is closed at this point
at present, the ice having stopped on
Monday night, at some point below.
The weather since has been hardly
cold enough to freeze the ice solid. We
are hoping for night or two of cold
weather, right along, and We will then
have an ice bridge, which will do an
immense sight of good. Several car
loads of hard coal, hay, provisions
&c, are at the depot now, waiting for
n time when teams can cross.
We are under obligations to G.
l.. Hanna, Esq, formerly Supsrinten-
dent of the West Hickory Oil Co.,
for late copies of tho Denver, (Colora-
do) Tribune. Mr.. Hanna is now visit
ing his parents in Greeley, Colorado,
and we expect soon to have commu-
nication from him, describing the
country. Our readers, many of whom
are acquainted with Mr.. Hanna, will
be glad to hear from him.
The new Town Council, with the
exception of T. B. Cobb, Esq, who
was absent, were sworn in OIL Saturday
evening last by Esq. Krox. w. p.

Council, and S. j. Wolcott, Treasurer.
j. II. Stroup was appointed Street
Commissioner for the year. The place
of meeting for the present is at Esq,
Mercilliotts office. The first regular
meeting will take place on Saturday
evening next.
Mr.. John Lowrie, hotel keeper
of Titusville, died on Monday after
noon last from the effects of an over
dose of morphine, given by DIR. Kep-
hart, of that city, 1t was rumored
afterward that the Physician was
about to leave the city, and he was
arrested at the instance of the Order
of Red Men, to answer to charge OF
manslaughter. From the testimony
ELECTED We should judge the overdose
was given rather through ignorance
than malice.

eli Tuesday, the 18th day of February,
1878, at 7 o'clock p. NJ. Among other
