chase by Messrs Briggs &Gebhart of the build
ing occupied by them in their hardware and
agricultural implements business, on Santa
Fe Avenue. They have also purchased the
lot directly back of them, fronting Oh Fifth

stay in town after his speech. MIR. Fenlon
spoke to good audience in the evening.
There was an extensive prairie fire on the
bluffs east of town last Friday evening. Mr..

CURED during the week, and we shall not be
