past years, and is very efficient clerl
but Auditor Wyckof has some politics

Porter, of LIE Roy, who will succeed MI
Elms.
The Banning Sisters had poo
house last week, but it was not unexpec

largely attended, and the church peopl

more enthusiastically treated next tim'

tie drama, "Dorothy."

e. O. WHEELER SELLS CURVE
were little surprised last week to hear
Of The transfer Of E. o. Wheeler's old
business to his brother, Rush
B. 1t is fact, however, and E. o. will
leave Austin in few weeks for Auburn,
n. Y, where he has formed law part

the Empire state, and enjoying an exten
sive practice. Mrs. Wheeler is relative
Of the Judge, with whom she lived many
years previous to her marriage, which
fact probably has much to do with the
change. Mr.. Wheeler had built up an
law, collection and real-estate

his brother as above stated. who has been
a partner in the Arm for few years past,
and will continue the business in the old

The handsome residence has also been
sold to X. B., who will occupy the same

While the fates have decreed that we
should have but little social or business
intercourse with E. o. Wheeler during
his residence here, we can honestly say
this much: There are other men We would
much rather see leave Austin. He al
ways enjoyed the agreeable faculty, when
lett alone, Of attending strictly to his own
business, and has been a good citizen.
"A st. Valentines party, or candy.
