LOCAL RECORD

PROBABLY NO ArPEAL.--It Is under
stood the case Of A II Marshall against
the city will not be appealed. The man.
ner in which tho decision Of Referee Ir.
vine was confirmed, the motion to modify

ment to the referee. While II Is not
very pleasant position 10 place city, the
inability to assess damages for grading ad-
Joining property, Il Is fact that citizens

he rogue's gallery for its readers TO guard
against, Is a fellow named Aldrich, who Is
travelling IN this section claiming to be the
agent Of an Albany fire Insurance COM
pany. Frcm three settlers on the NehAl-
EN-, be got $Is, $40, and $3s, respectively
The Sig man he told he would insure hts
place for three years for 5000. This mans
sane Is Purilla, living at Mishawaka.

udiated al knowledge Of the bogus
gents actions. and The settlers are out
aust what they paid"
