The fine carpenter work on w. II.
pMcClure's new house, is due to Mr.. 8.
P. Overmeyer, who was the sole con-

rying a different impression, were
founded on what we considered good
authority.
At the congregational meeting of
the Presbyterian Church last Monday,
the subject of parsonage was brought
up and referred to the trustees with in
structions to act Immediately. A nice
parsonage Is almost certain to be

paper that goes to thousand families
In Allen county is good medium to
tell the people what he has to sell, and
his big business shows the wisdom of
that belief.

Owing to an ungodly COW getting
after our foreman and shaking up his
nerves SO he had to lay up for repairs,
we were late in getting to press last /,

have been interviewed by societies,
churches and individuals, aggrieved /
I'm one way or another, and we are now
trying to think what on earth we
have said about the cows.
Recorder Fast's new house, in the |
east part of town, is completed. A
hasty look through it with the genial !
owner, convinced US that it is one of
the neatest and incest in town. The
finest job of papering we have seen
has been done for Mr.. Fast in his
dwelling by Mr.. Joseph Lawitzska,
the ornamental work in the parlor be- |
ing particularly good.
Our genial friend J. H. Fisher will |
hereafter constitute one of the "court |
house ring" having been appointed |
deputy county attorney by Mr.. Amos. |
This will Of course necessitate the dis
solution of the firm of Gordon & Fish
er. Mr.. Gordon will continue to occu-
py the old Office over Northrup's store,
while Fisher will take the room at the |
court house just vacated by b. o.
Davidson.
The G. A. r. ball at the opera |
house New Years evening was fairly |
attended, there being about thirty
five couples present, and was one Of |
the pleasantest affairs Of the holidays.
The company was unusually select
and everything passed of as smoothly
as could be desired. The financial OBJ |
ject Of the ball was to raise money to |
reimburse the post for the street scene |
which they bought and placed in the |
hall when the spy Of Atlanta was
played. We are sorry to learn, how
ever, thst the receipts will barely bal |
ance the expenditures.
The grand rabbit hunt at Carlyle |
during the holidays was fun for the
boys but death on the rabbits. Eleven

ninety points. A grand oyster supper |
was given to the victors by the defeat |
ed party Monday night. kwe are re-
minded by this Of rat hunt in the |
same neighborhood some half dozen !
years ago when $500 rats came to |
