Much disappointment is being expert
enced by those interested in fishing shores
that they are not able to procure licenses
to sell liquor on the shores during the sea
son. Nearly every one of them failed to
get a permit from the last Grand Jury and
of course the, Clerk has no authority other
wise to issue a license. So this year the
fishermen will either have to keep dry (in-

Persons interested in fishing cannot do
better than to avail themselves of the ser
vices OF the long established and we'll
known house of r. A. Golden & Bro. of
Washington city. The Messrs Golden
are natives of this county and therefore
entitled to kindly consideration from
its people. They have long been engaged
in the commission business and have pc
culiar facilities for its prompt and efficient
transaction. Their we'll known pecunia-
ry responsibility and standing is matter
worthy Of consideration in these days
when the loss ola little money will work so
great hardship on our poverty stricken
and over-taxed people. To show the en-
ergy of this house we may mention the
fact, which we get from the Washington
Star, that on last Monday the Messrs.
Golden sold 5000 punches of perch and
rockAall the way up to 40 cts per bunch :;
300 single rock, some as high as 20 cents

Narrow Escape.

On Sunday afternoon last, as Mr.. Henry
Wingate and Miss Carrie Simpson were
returning home from visit to some friends,
the horses attached to their buggy took
fright and ran off. The cause appears to
be as follows: When within mile or two
of this village the driving reins broke, and
while AE,zWingate was endeavoring to tie
OF mend them the horses became frighten-
ed and started off at full speed, knocking
Mr.. Wingate down and thereby running
over him. Miss Simpson remained in the
buggy until reaching Jenifer,s Hill, near
this place, when, seeing her dangerous
situation. she unfastened the back curtain
of the buggy and leaped out in safety.
The horses continued running until they
reached our town when they were caught
and secured. We are happy to state that
the parties were not injured, other than a
few slight bruises attended with little
scare which was natural enough. Strange
to say, that after running over the space
of two miles neither of the horses were
hurt, and the buggy was only slightly
maged.-Independen

This anniversary of Erin's patron saint
opened bright and beautiful but develop
ed before sunset its traditional tickienesS.
The wind increased during the morning
and sent scudding across tie sky few
belated winter clouds, which occasionally
as they hurried by dropped few spitetul
flakes of snow. 1t was something unusual
to witness the t1eecy flakes in the bright
sunshine We sincerely hope they Will be
the last we shall see for many day. The
weather during the past week has been
beautiful. and some of our friends being
deceived by it went into the gardening
business. As they could not wear the
green on the natal day of St. Patrick.
they showed their greenness by planting
Irish potatoes on that day. But before
might it turned very cold and by the mcrn-
ing everything was frozen hard. But we
do not think hard enough to iniure the
potatoes thus planted, but it was cold
enough to remind us that the hoary old
sinner, Winter, was yet ''lingering in the
lap Of Spring" He ought to be ashamed
of himself and return to his Arctic home
where his family of icebergs, big and lit
tie, are waiting anxiously for him.

All people would undoubtedly prefer fine

being bald, or wearing false hair: and it has
been the study of many of our learned men TO
find a remedy to restore the hair when it has
fallen out, and renew its color after it has be-
come graz. Such remedy has been found,
and is now offered to the world under the name
of Hall Vegetable Sicilian Hair Remover: and,
to verify this statement, read the following -
This is to certify that | was very bald in
