GREAT LIVER MEDICINE !

Cures diseases of tho liver in all It's various
forms, such as
Dyspepsia, Headacho, Neuralgia, water

to four hours time and docs not produce
nausea or gripping pains in the bowels.
l have tried Hepatozone as a sort of last
resort to prevent the frequently recurring
beaches to which have been subjected for
eight or ten years, and unhesitatinely pro-
nOunco Ii more beneficial than any nedi-
cine l have ever tried. Its results si6on my

BRENNAN, Jan. Is.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Brenham:


Council of the City of Brennan;
GENTLEMEN:-We have exam
ined the new school building and
the work done on the same, and
beg leave to report that we find
the work has been well done, ac-
cording to plans and specifications
and we recommend that the build
ing be received and that the con-
tractor, NJ. Russi, be paid in full.
We recommend further that you
refund Mr.. Russi's premiums on
unexpired insurance paid by him,
and have the policy transferred to
the city. NJ. w. MANN.
J. BAssETT.
c. G. Couch.
W. A. WOOD.
II. MARTIN.
On motion of Alderman Will
hanson said report was received
and adopted, the building was ac-
copied and the committee author
lied TO to make final settlement
with the contractor NJ. Russi.
Mr.. Russi reported that he had
unexpired insurance on the build
ing for $4,000, and desired the city
to accept q transfer of the same
and refund him the pro rata of
premium thereon.
The finance committee were in
structed to accept. said transfer
and to authorize said payment,
commencing January LIST, 1884.
Said committee was further in
structed to increase the insurance
on the building to 10000, and to
insure the furniture for $1,000.
Mr.. NJ. W. Mann, the chairman
of the building committee, desired
to state that the building had been
fully completed and the contract of
Mr.. Russi faithfully complied
with in every respect. The work
had been inspected and examined
by competent mechanics, and pro-
nounced excellent that this state
ment is made also in justice to Mr..
Russi, should there be any COM
plant as to defective construction,
&C., which is usual about the cree
ton of public buildings. Harmony
had prevailed between committees
and constructor during the entire
time.
Mr., Garrett also desired to add
that as far as he could judge, being
no mechanic, the contract had been
fully complied with, and that the
constructor had done himself cred
it. He believed that the building
had been constructed at much
less cost than is usual. The entire
building, furnished, would cost
something less than $4,000, and
one of its chief beauties was, no
bonds had beeen issued to pay for
it, and thatit was, practically, paid
for. A deficit Of about the cost of
the furniture-viz: Sl,265-would
have to be carried over to next tax
lew. The thS lew lew E being su% ~
when collected, to pay balance on
building.
Adjourned on motion.

noon a lumber of colored boys
were playing in the vicinity of the
new school house when a boy
named Lee Davis, about a dozen
years old, picked up a rock or
brickbat and threw it at another
boy, striking Wyatt Walker, aged
about ten years, ON the back ofthe
head knocking him as cold as a
cold potato. Lee claims that he
was only playing and that he did
not throw at Wyatt. The wounded
boy was carried home on a shutter
and a doctor was called in to
cooper his head. For several
hours he had spasms and it was
thought his earthly career was at
an end, but Monday morning he
was much better and will recover.
The rock thrower WIS arrested
and Wyatt's relativeswere sure it
was deliberate attempt at MUIR
der; this was when Wyatt was ex-
peeted to become an angel at once;
as soon as the crisis was past it
was determined that the boys were
only playing and that no harm
was intended. The. rock waiter
will escape without punishment
