We wish to call the attention of our
readers, and particularly that of our
farmer readers to the article headed,
..Sub-soiling and Surface Cultivation

Every member of the dancing club
and every respectable citizen should
attend the club dance, at the Opera
House this (Thursday) evening, and
should make his or her presence felt.
One reason why this dance should be
largely attended is, that Smith Orches-
ira of GAINESVILLE, comes to US highly
recommended. They use mandolin
and harp as accompanies, and we
understand that their round dance
music is par-excellence. A grand social
time is in store for those who attend.

barn, where he will lie glad to meet his
numerous patrons. His livery is I'M
doubleday one of the best equipped in the
county, and the promptness and cheer
fulnesS with which he attends to the
wants of his patrons is bound to win for
him large increase of business. When
contemplating a trip to neighboling
towns, try Posey's livery. We feel Ger
tain that you will be well satisfied with
the treatment you receive.

Ii is rumored that new fire alarm
bell will in due time grace the City
Hall. If the rumor is correct it will
belong exclusively to the Phoenix Fire
Engine Company and will be a first
class alarm bell in every respect. An
alarm bell that could be heard on
windy night in any part of the city.
would be most desirable acquisition
TO our already efficient fire system.
What, with a new combined chemical
engine and full fedged alarm bell,
we will certainly be in condition to get
out crowd, and then quench any fire
that may loom up. 1t will be some
time yet, however, before either the
new engine or bell arrive.

Dunklee may be but an elegant an
nouncement card before us says that he
was married in Denver, Co orado last
week to Miss Nellie Kinney whom we
do know to be one of the best of those
excellent Potosi young ladies. Although
Mrs. Dunklee's acquaintance in Grant
County are unusually numerous, we

where the happy and fortunate Doctor
is engaged in the practice of his pro-
fession.
