this city, in which she says her father, Mr..
N. Ehle, remains very comfortable, consid-
ering the prOstration he labors under, and
desires through our columns to wish all old
Kenosha friends a Merry Christmas and
happy New Year.
The sentence in the notice of the suicide
last week, &" It seems that Dorr Bradley some
years ago married Miss Hattie Holbrook,''
should have read Fifteen years ago."
Mrs. Bradley had been living with her hus-
band at Eau Claire until about four weeks
previous to his death, and was not separated
from him, as was reported through the city.
Rev. Frank 7. Lee left on Monday evening
for Colorado Springs, to preach one Of his
eloquent and interesting sermons, and with
the reasonable prospect Of being invited to
remain there. Wherever Mr.. Lee goes he
carries with him christian character, soft
and sympathetic disposition, and a general
composition which will bind him to any
community.

the Fourth Ward of that city, says he suffered
terribly with rheumatism all last winter and
spring. He tried all kinds Of liniments and
medicines without any benefit until he used

entire control and authority, favored them
with q pleasant social interview, furnished

never excelled) can furnish, and as an ad :.

The enterprise of Mr.. J. B. Kup-
fer in putting his bakery in order so
soon after the unfortunate fire which
burned him out, is not only no.
ti0eable, but exceedingly commendable.

Kupfer cracker will more than be made up
in the futnre that is if Knpfer can out.do
himself in this line.
