divisions the St. Paul company has.
BURGLARS made an unsuccessful
attempt to break into the Office of

recently. A pinch bar was EN-.
ployed and the door frame some
what damaged.

plated ware line, if you want to
save money. 48-2w
The Salvation Army barracks
was reopcned Thursday evening,
Notwithstanding the inclement
weather it proved successful. The
Soldiers of the local Army are
justified in feeling proud of their
barracks. 1t is a credit to them.
THE great afliction lowering over
the family Of Mr.. John Foster
draws out the sincere sympathy Of
every member Of this community,
!
Five or six of the family are at
present prostrated by typhoid fever.
1t is hoped that health, strength and
comfort will be speedily restored
io each and all Of this estlmabIe
home circle.
SERVICES will take place at the
7. M. church at the usual hours to-
morrow. Mr. John Pierce will
preach in the morning. In the
evening Rev. S. II. Chubb, will
preach, taking for his subject,
'Jacob's Dark Night in the Wilder
ness, and How He Came There"
This sermon the third of a series
which Mr. Chubb is preaching on
night events of the Bible.
THE Plattevile Witness has sent
out its boom edition. 1t is very
much after the style of that issued
for Mineral Point last sun mer.
Boom additions of this order do
not result to the welfare of place
that one is liable to conclude upon

He earns every cent he gets out it.,
being employed by the "writer up"

goes from town to town doing this
kind Of business He solicits orders
of citizens for large numbers Of the
boom sheets, and the one giving
him the largest order gets the
largest puff. Perhaps the most
| leading and solid citizens may not
choose to be paraded in such full
some style, and refuse to endorse it.
In consequence they-the backbone
Of a place-are ignored entirely
and thereby the sheet fall short oI
very essential features. The space
in the columns is the writer's anC
he cannot afford much Of it tc
properly tell Of the attractions
solidity and enterprise Of the place
lie il after the dollars, and is thu
one most benefited and not tht
