appearing where the fore-legs should be
Otherwise the animal was we'll formed

-Mrs. Emma Geer, a former resident
of this city, died at Marshall, Mich, on
the 2lst ult. We learn that she had fol-
some time been troubled with weakness

man and beloved here by large circle
of friends, who sincerely mourn her de-
parture to the spirit world.

ton Of increased supply will be interest
ing to the citizens and taxpayers of the
city. 1t seems as though we might look

must be taken in regard to cleanliness
and full supply of good, pure water.
Charles Ostersen of Genoa, who has
been under DR.. Clark's treatment for the
liquor habit returned home Friday, free
from the dreadful disease. Aside from
a matter of business, DR.. Clark is doing
royal work rs benefactor of his race.
From our observation of patients we
believe Clark's cure is better than Kee-
ley's.

county board, who have no more mind of
their own than q newborn infant?" In
the language of the latest song we might

"A fellow in Iowa has visited several
farm houses, and under pretext Of being
a q. s. detective, has demanded to see
alone, young lady member of the fam
lily, saying that he had a warrant for her
arrest for passing counterfeit money.
The villain didn't succeed in making any
arrests, at last accounts, and it will be
we'll for him, if he does not wander over
into Nebraska.
Mr.. Dech stated at Lindsay that he
had been offered big salary to stay at
home and keep quiet, but that he pur-
posed devoting his days to the cause he
is advocating. He didn't tell who or
what had offered him big salary to
keep quiet. A little exposition of such
methods Of influencing public opinion
would 60 q much longer way with the
people, than mere general assertions
that call no particular person to ques-

Monday morning three companies Of
the Twenty first U. S. infantry, Col. Jew
ett commanding, passed through the city
from Sidney en- route for Buffalo, N. Y,
where they will be stationed. Captain
Ebstein and Captain Duncan, with whom
Col. Meagher Of this city served, in this
same regiment, twenty-five to thirty years

the plains about thirty years. Captain
Duncan was born at Fort COnchO, and
has never been stationed east of the Mis-
souri, river. Fred Coan, q former resi-
