TWO CREEKS.

/ E. a. Benedict has received the ap-
pointment of census-taker for the town.
/ Mrs. Josephine Bennish, of Oconto, is
visiting her parents at this place.
/ We are again the recipient of valuable
favors from our honorable member OF as
sembly for which he has our thanks.
We learn with pleasure Of the recent
marriage OF Mr.. Charles Eblenfeldt, OF
Carlton, to Miss Hattie White, one of the
most intelligent and talented young ladies
of that town.
Hon. Fred Pfunder is suffering from a
severe attack Of neuralgia which prevent
ed his attendance as inspector of election
at the polls yesterday, circumstance
which has not occurred in years.
Rumor says that young couple Of this
town will shortly pass under the yoke OF
Hymen, and as the parties are we'll known
and respected we trust that we may soon
have the pleasure Of reporting the happy
event
We regret exceedingly that the inter
esting discussion of the state certificate
question has been brought to SO abrupt
a termination. Perhaps the writer of
communicated" might give it fresh
impetus by bringing forth that long prom
Used letter of his.
As the result of yesterdays election
George Taylor was chosen chairman, II.
Meier and Ignatz Volta supervisors, Jos.
Schroeder, treasurer, John Last assessor
and II. johnson clerk. They are compe-
tent and honest men and will make excel
lent officials.
Pigeons and other birds of passage are
numerous and robins, larks and other
summer songsters have appeared, but
the snow king still disputes the superior
ity with them while old Boreas whistles
a disheartening accompaniment to the
emusic of the field frogs orchestra.
Wenzei Stangle, a respected citizen of
the town of Mshicott, died at his resi-
dence in that town on Wednesday the
3lst ultino, after a brief illness of five
days. Deceased was sixty two years of
age and was one of the earliest settlers in
this locality, having located here nearly
quarter of century ago. His remains
were followed to the grave by an i'm
mense copcourse of friends and relatives.
He leaves a wife and family of children
nearly all of whom have arrived at the
age of maturity.
Several changes have recently been
made in our local business directory. NJ.
". BOyce has gone out of the saloon
business and has assumed charge of the
Pfster farm. T. Christensen has gone
to Mishicott, his place being at present
occupied by W. Yanoschek, formerly of
the town of Kossutn.
At the election, On yesterday, John
Last and Joseph Schroeder were elected
to the offices Of assessor and treasurer
respectively, positions which they have
both occupied for the past three years.
The peculiar duties Of these offices, par
ticularly the former, render it extremely
difficult to perform their duties without
mourning complaint and the circumstance
of their being held so many times in sue
cession by the same parties rarely occurs,
all of which reflects greatly to the credit
of these men.
Intelligence of distressing case of
suicide in the town of Carlton, Kewannee
county, reaches US. The victim, young
man by the name Of John Hollup, was
found hanging from beam in bis barn
on Wednesday of last week, life being
entirely extinct. A coroner's inquest was
Immediately held and the jury retur. ed
verdict that deceased came to his death
by his own hand, but suspicion being
aroused by the testimony lis ontrails
were reserved by the attending physic-
ians for further examination, the result
OF which We have, as yet, been unable to
ascertain. 1t appears that deceased had
doubts as to the fidelity of his wife,
which according to report were only too
well founded, and recent Developments
seem to indicate that she and her para
mour had hand in his death. The peo-
pie are greatly agitated and the young
man to avoid the consequences las de
camped.
