THEY WERE DRUNK.

John Craig came in from the country
yesterday to buy some clothing for his
children. He made his purchases and
spent considerable money for whiskey. He
then determined to take ride on the fer.
ry boat which trip proved too much fol-
him, as when he landed on this side he fell
down utterly exhausted and unable to navi-
gate. He was taken to the Armory, and
this morning was fined So and costs by
Justice Chopper.
James Burke also displayed an over
fondness for the intoxicating drink and
landed at late hour last night in the ock
up. He put in an appearance this morning
before Justice Chopper when his fine was
ascertained to be 50 and costs.
The prisoners paid their Indebtedness to
the city and were started on their home
ward journey.

THE SUPERVISORS.

On the 10th of the present month the
Board of Supervisors will meet in regula,
session. The business to be transacted
will include among various other matters
the appointment of a County Superinten
dent of schools to take the place Of Mr..
Sturgeon whose term of Office expired by
limitation few days ago. This will no
doubt make the session lively, as it is I'm
derstood that there are about a dozen ap
plicants for the vacant position, and all the
townships have not been heard from. The
Finance Committe of the Board viii meet
next Monday, when the semi-annual re-
ports of the different county officers viii
be submitted. This committee will make

Arrangements have about been com

M. D. of Chicago, in this city next Tues.
day evening. The title of the lecture has
not yet been made public, but viii relate
to the sanitary precautions of a city to pre-
vent the appearance and spreading of con-
tagious diseases.
In view Of the present pest house loca-
ton trouble, and the prevalence of small
pox and other contagious diseases in this
state, the lecture of Prof Hall will prove
of more than ordinary interest.

treated of with pleasing delivery.
The lecture will be free, and the public
generally is invited to be in attendance.
