Rodrigues handled club in a dis agreeable way to Gastello, and the latter used his Knife in a very effective manner on the right side and head of his antagon- ist, cutting him badly near the spine.

 THE fire-proof vault fer llecounty records in the recorders office, is now completed, and we believe it piece of work that will save the records against any fire it will ever be subjected to. IL is true the arched covering is not much over one foot in thickness, but there is very little wood about the whole building to burn in case of fire. We think that vault would re- main perfectly sound after all the com bus t1ble material near 1t were burnd to ashes.
