NOTES HERE AND THERE

"A partially pleasant and partially
cloudy day.
The trial of Geo. p. Frysinger has been
postponed until Tuesday.
What did Krell pay for that 400 h
hog he got from the county poor farm?
I'VE are told that large numbers of
Republicans AMI Democrats who noted for
krel last year will now vote for Aster.
The Union continues to speak of an
office il calls Assistant Marshal" There
is not and never was such an Office in the
city.
Mayor Butler has notified Marshal
Hawes to inform Policeman Ohrt that ''he
is no longer police officer" 1t has been
done
-Streckfus is an enterprisiug. deserving
aud honest man and not politician. He
is preferable to anybody the Krell- Parks
ring will be likely to nominate.
The old frame house on Orleans street
opposite the residence of A. K. Phil.eo.
which has beer an eye sore for the last
hive or SIX years, has at last been torn
down.
Charles W. Wilcox is the favorite every
iastic support. Many Republicans are
actively at work for him, and there is a
good prospect that he will be elected.
The Union says Krell is candidate
for supervisor. We thought the Republi
can convention had not yet nominated
but we suppose the slate is made up and
that the meeting tonight is mere matter
Of form.
The fellows who robbed the CIR anger
store, at Wilton, Iowa, were captured, with
the goods. in Buffalo, Iowa, opposite Anda-
lusia, and brought to Davenport Jail for safe
keeping. They have been taken to Mus
catiDe for trial.
Charles l.. Walker has made good
town clerk, and made his charges in ac.
| cordance with law If he will accept the
| office again We hope his name will be print
ed on our tickets, and thus encourage men
who discharge their duties faithfully and
honestly.
We think that the name of A. X.
Philleo should be printed on our tickets tor
| assessor. He has announced himself as a
candidate, irrespective of any convention.
He has made good officer, and we hope
our tickets will be printed with his name
inserted.
We would rather see more competent
men nominated for supervisor than Aster
or krell, but we prefer Aster to krell'
He is an honest, careful, industrious man,
and he is not political wire puller and
would not use the office for party purposes,
as Krell has and does.
"A great many Republicans are tired
of Krell They consider him too exren.
sive-think he is making money out of the
office, and that he has already held it toe
long Many of them will vote for Aster-
an honesr, economical man, and just as I'll
for the Office as Krell
Last night, when the alarm of FIRE wal
given, the Rescue boys were unable to get
to the fire on account of their cart getting
stuck in mud hole near DR.. Gregg's resi-
dence. and there were not enough mer
present to pull it out. How's that fo1
streets2
1 The sudden resignation of Mr.. Benia
min L. Buffers son in-law. who has beer
acting as governor of Mississippi, amount,
to confession that the charges Of off ia
malteasance upon which he has been im
peached, are true charges. He has es
capped removal from Office upon impeach
ment by confessing his guilt and removing
himself.

MERCHANTS GARGLING OIL.-This
standard liniment has been before the
people for over forty years, it having been
first manufactured in 1888. and it is safe
to assert that no preparation in the market
has SO fully stood the test of time, and
been received with such universal favor as
the Gargling OIL 1t is found in nearly
every household in this country, and is
also sold extensively in Europe. From a
very small beginning the Gargling Oil
Company has been obliged to steadily in
crease its facilities for manufacturing, and
now employs an army of men, and occu-
pies magnificent buildings of its own
Much OF the success OF the company is due
to the careful and efficient management of

alarm of fire was sounded from the First
Ward and the fire companies immediately
turned out The fire proved to be in the
old frame barn connected with Mr.. Negus' s
former residence and which is now ac-
cupied by W. W. Eggleston, corner of
Front and Beaver streets There was con-
siderable hay in the barn and the fire, aided
by stiff northeast wind aud considering
that the old building was very dry, was
not easily checked, and altho' the fremen
we're unusually prompt in throwing water
the building was destroyed.
1t is thought that the fire was caused by
the carelessness of some boys who, it is
said, were in the barn looking for pigeons.
