Bills Against the County

The blank bills. with affidavit and Ger
tifcate attached. ordered by Maj Boards
ley, to carry out the resolutions Of the
Board of Supervisors. are printed and
ready for the people who have claims
against the county. The resolutions of the
Board directing how supplies shall be fur
nished, in future, aud how bills shall be
made out, are printed on the back Of the
blank, so that everybody can see the au-
thority for making out bills in this form.
A large portion of the bills are printed
with blank filing for supplies for the poor
The balance are printed with filing which
can be- filed up for other purposes, such
as supplies for County Clerk office, Sher-
if 5 office, Circuit Clerk 5 Office, or for any
other purpose or use. \ few blanks have
been mailed to each Supervisor, and it is
requested that each Supervisor will see to
it that all bills from his township are made
out on these blanks, so that there viii be
NJ unnecessary delay in getting them al
lbNtu. II duy DLlc udNC bGSh lduutA III;
people should Withdraw them and make out
others On these blanks. Allwho want blanks
can get them Of Maj. Beardsley, the Coun-
ty Clerk, or his assistants Maj. Boards
ley says he likes the plan Of making out
bills in this way, and thinks it will save the
county a good deal of money, if the plan
is carried out. The plan requires that all
bills Of every kind shall be made out by
items in detail, and be sworn to- Also
that all bills for outside poor shall be GER
tilted by the Supervisor ordering the sup
plies Also that all supplies, where prac-
ticable, shall be let to the lowest bidder
OF course it is not practicable, in many
cases, to receive bids and make contracts,
nor is it expected, in trifing matters But
it is intended to inaugurate the system OF
competition among those who wish to furn-
ish supplies, and, when practicable, to ad-
vertise for bids and make contracts

Girl Drowned.

We learn that a daughter of Thomas

drowned on Thursday last As near as
We can learn from conflicting reports the
following are the facts in the case: The
daughter of Mr. DOonan, about - years
of age, had been washing near a slough on
Wednesday, and completing her work re-
turned to the house, leaving her wash-tub
near the slough. On Thursday, after the
storm came up, she thought Of the tub
that she had left, and in company with
little brother started to bring it home. Ar
irving at the place where she left it the
day before, she found it floating away on
the rapidly increasing volume of water,
and stepping in to secure it, either fell or
the rapid current caused her to lose her
foOthold, when she was swept down the
stream and drowned before assistance could
come to her relief. Her body was recover
ed in about 20 minutes, but life was ex-
tinct. -Aled0 Record, 2Sth.

acter, and is known to the police Of this To-
cality very well he having consummated
several operations here in time past
Monday morning, in Davenport, Chief Of
Police Martens, while walking along Front
Street, met this Dublin with his partner,
and in company of a noted thief of that
place. The chief spoke to the trio. and
asked Dublin what he was going to do in
Davenport, 10 which the latter answered
that he was recuperating his exhausted en-
ergies and enjoying the fine scenery, as ii
Is apparent to the gaze Of man On the levee.
The chief bluntly said that there was NJ
chance for him Dublin to operate in but
ter and eggs here, and that the sooner he
left the city with his cappers, the better it
would be for all concerned Dublin saw
the point Of the remark, and will hereafter
