woe be il To the blonde masher.
There are l7i,7i6 persons engaged in
all departments of the government ser

Octavius Phineas Waitman, q c0nspic' |
uous and notorious citizen of Audubon |
county, will take the job Of running the
whole machinery and trimming the
lights for $40 month and board
round. Under existing circumstances
this dazzling aggregation of talent and

party at court house hall last Thursday
evening. 1t proved charming novelty,
and those in attendance accord tho Ia
dies the highest mede Of praise for the
manner In which 1t was presented. The
crazy idea so predominated that II was
well calculated to mystify the most de-
liberate and cool-headed. However,
Mrs. Peter IIobert, as Widow Bedott,
was general oyerseer of affairs, and 80
nicely managed that patrons were all
well served and fed TO the full,

rived at the bedside of the little sufferer
about 7 p. M, and reduced the fracture,
leaving him ut u late hour, as comfort
able as the unfortunate circumstance

recovered from his late illness, and is
again able to attend all calls, as the
