CHEAP ICE.
That is What we are Promised
Next Year.

An ice factory, with capacity 10 anu
facture twenty-five tons per day, Is con-
templated here by the prominent ice
dealers, Bohlen, Huse & Co. Its con-
~struction will be commenced at an early
day, and it will be ready for service be-
fore the opening Of the ice trade next
spring. This promises US cheaper ice
through future seasons.
The ice crop last winter was light all
over the country, owing to the unusually
mild weather. Our source Of supply at
the head of the Illinois river failed to
yield enough to stock the markets here
abouts; and Messrs. Bohlen, Huse & Co.
were compelled 10 go farther north to fiji
up their s%torehouses. They found u sup
ply on the upper Mississippi in Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota, near Prairie-du-C Chem.
II was II long way to go, and the expense
being largely increased, the price to con-
sumers was naturally advanced this year.
This trouble will be obviated hereafter
by the manufacture Of artificial ice, which
will keep prices down 10 bed rock" as
miners say. Messrs. Bohlen Huse & Co.
are also erecting additional storage houses
and charging the storage space Of others,
so that a plentiful supply OF natural ice
will be constantly kept. Consumers will
have their choice, and can use the natural
species, or artificial, or both, rs they
choose, though 1t is understood that nat
ural ice will command a slightly higher
figure than the other.
The spirit Of enterprise manifested by
Bohlen, Huse & Co. is commendable, and
their efforts to supply ice at the lcwesi
figures will meet It's reward by an in.
creased number Of customers.

THE CONVENTION.

The Convention which meets at Moore's
Hall, to-day, has great deal of power in its
hands for good or evil. It can more closely
unite the heretofore antagonistic elements Of
the party. furthering the work already SO hap.
PLY begun, and 1t can by injudlcious noain-
ations, further jeopardize the party's inter-
ests. This is a season Of thoughtful aud con-
ciliatery action, and everything that is done
toward that end, will help to give the party
big majority in this county. 1t is in the
power of the Convention to neutralize the
good work already begun, by bad nomina-
tions. We hope that there will be no combi-
nations made in the Convention by which un-
popular men will secure place on the ticket.
There Is big crowd knocking at the Conven-
tion;s door for recognition, and it behooves it
to pick none but the best. Let each delegate
refuse to listen to the pleadings and argu-
ments of any cannidate, and cast his ballot
in the interest of nothing but the party.
Guard every interest, examine carefully each
mans qualifications and strength, and make
ticket around which the Republican party of
Ormsby can rally as a unit.

IMPURE BREATH.

Among all the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay of the teeth, an i'm
pure breath must be the most notifying
and unpleasant to its possessor, and it is
the mostinexcusiblea and offensive in society;
and yet the cause of it may easily be re
moved by cleansing your teeth daily with
that justly popular dentrifrice, Fragrant
SOZODONT. It puri6es and sweetens the
breath, cools and refreshes the mouth, and
gives pearl-like appearance to the teeth.
Gentlemen who indulge in smoking should
cleanse their teeth with SOZODONT. as
it removes all unpleasant oders of the weed.

what death was, and the officers were obliged
to remove it from the body. A few yards off

experience they had never witnessed anything
SO horrible. When the body was removed
to the Morgae hole was found in the chest,
from which blood flowed, of light color, as
if it came from the lung. 1t was impossible,
however, to tell whether the wound was made
by pistol shot or q slim knife.
