A French gentleman, engaged upon a
profound scientific work, rang for his
valet. Then he sat down at his table
and wrote note: KINDLY send some
one to arrest the cook. She has stolen
my purse" This he directed to the
chief of police.
The valet appeared, and while wait
ing for his master to finish writing he
picked up something that lay under the
table AS he took the note he said:
Monsieur, here is your purse. found
it under the table"
"Ah, just in time. Give me the note,
JEAN"
He added this postscript: Il have
found my purse. 1t is unnecessary to
send any one," and handed the letter
to the valet, saying: Deliver this at
once. 1t is important" Then he went
back to his work.-Youth's Companion,

her over the head, kicking her out of the
house, accompanied by similar other lit
tie playful eccentricities, at the conclu-

4 Correspondent Censurcs County
Court Commissioners Concerning
Bridge Business.
ROCKVILLE, August 81, 1892

ROCKVILLE, August 81. 1892.
EDITOR ARGUS -
We desire TO say few words con.
corning the misadministration and
inetficiency of our present County
Commissioners in Pleasant and
Grant districts. Ii. A. Conner is
the Com missioner in Pleasant: S.
f. Conner, in Grant. Both are
candidates for reelection, and both
should be defeated. The bridge
here is IN dangerous condition,
and has been so all summer, and
there are fifty good, honest people
that will swear to It. Some time in
May the two Commissioners (the
bridge is on the lIne) came down
and looked at it; said it vas safe
and went back home. The tax
payers paid them $500 apiece for
their trouble. In n week or so they
came down again, took an axe, went
out on the bridge, chopped half way
through n sill at one lick. They
said It WGS not safe and would have
to be repa red.
The bridge continued in this state
all summer. The Road Supervisor
posted up a notice that the bridge
rus not safe, after the +" Comn,is-
S'onerS " decreed that it was.
There is more travelling across
this bridge than the three iron
bridges above here, on Sandy. Yet
If we would wait for our "Commis.
sloncrs" to give us an iron bridge
we would still be waiting when
Gabriel blows his horn.
The repairing Of the bridge was
sold out. Every body went to Bruce
ton, rs it WAS understood that it
would bo sold out there, when the
truth came out it was sold out here
to a party for 800, when one of
the party that went to Bruceton had
intended to run it down as low ms
$50. The Commissioners made
three trips apiece here. which was
Sl2 out of the taxpayers pockets.
The bridge will rot down and have
to be repaired again in n year or so.
Ben a. and Samuel Z. Conner
should be defeated We have no
further use for them . The people
here will vote rs IA unit against them
regardless Of party difference. De-
feat them, voters We Will keep
the ARGUS posted on our County
Com mlsSloners. We have them
spotted, and there is no rest for
the wicked.

During the meal Mr.. Bowser was
so jolly and laughed so often and
so heartily that the girl looked at
Mrs. Bowser in puzzled way and
evidently desired to warn her that
some grave calamity was about to
happen. When they had finished
and returned to the sitting room

and said

The Onern HousgsBloclk.

Since the first announcement of this
business enterprise the area to be cover
ed has grown to considerable proper
tons. 1t is now contemplated to add to
it from the site of the Noyes Block, the
agreement having been made for its pur-
chase by Mr.. Henry W. Putnam. This
gives full frontage of about 100 feet.
This will bring the tower entrance to the
opera house in the center of the front
Negotiations are also i'll progress for
better means of entrance to the rear,
and for fire escape in case of danger.
The depth of the building varies from
So to Sc and 100 feet respectively of the
three sites consolidated. We are in
formed that the measurements are taken
by w. C. Bull and that the first of the
week w. II. Lempert, architect, Of
Rochester, and perhaps Others will be
here to begin the plans; and it is also
the intention of Mr.. Putnam to consult
with the various societies that have
spoken for halls in regard to size of
rooms, finish, etc. The building will
cost from $40, 600 to $50, 900.
As will be seen by notice in another
column the old buildings and their con-
tents will be sold at auction, and as soon
as these are removed, building opera
lions will be commenced. We suggest
that it would be nice to have this block
include the Sibley corner and perhaps
other property. 1t would seem the
owners ought to be willing to sell for a
reasonable sum, and so enable Mr.. Put
nam to put up a corner block as well as
the one contemplated.
