Between this and the other side of the
 broad Atlantic, in the shape of tourists, commercial travellers and mariners, agents Ion the road," steamboat cap- tains, ships surgeons and "all sorts and conditions" of travellers, emigrants and new settlers appreciate and testify to the preventive and remedial properties of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters in sea sickness, nausea, malarial and rheu- matic trouble, and all disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. Against the prejudicial influences of climate, crude ly cooked or unaccustomed diet and i'm pure water, it is sovereign safeguard, and has been so regarded by the travel ing public for over third of a century. No form of malarial fever, from the ca lentura of the Pacific and the broken
 bone fever of the Mississippi, to it's mild CT types, can resist the curative action of this benignant preserver and restorer of health, veritable boon to persons in feeble health or liable to incur disease.

The Albuquerque Citizen says: The champion liar has been found at last He resides at Fergus Falls, Minnesota and is connected with the editorial staff of the Journal of that place. A recent issue of that paper says that farmer of that place raised one thousand bushels of popcorn this year, and stored it in barn. The barn caught fire, the corn began to pop and filled ten acre field. An old mare in neighboring pasture had defective eyesight, saw the corn, thought it was snow, and laid down and froze to death.

COUNTY RECORDER,

COUNTY RECORDER.
 To the Foreman of the Grand Jury We, your committee appointed to inves- tigate the Recorders office, have the honor to submit the following: We find that no fee book has been kept by the Recorder-but it does not seem to have been the custom of former Recorders to keep one. We recommend, however, that the Recorder be instructed to keep such a book, which shall be public document. We find the index of books very poorly kept. Dates are not entered in many instances, as the law requires and large part of the book is not kept in alphabetical order, as it should be. We recommend that a new index of deeds be made. We find that there has been great carelessness in the Recor- der's office in the matter of recording various instruments. Documents have been received in the office, and not en- tered in the books for months. One in- stance we found where a power of attor- nev was received and returned with the certificate of the Recorder that it had been recorded at noon on the 18th of April, 1892, and it is not yet entered. We desire to express our strong disap- proval of the Recorder allowing any one, not his sworn deputy to sign the Recorders name to any official docu- ment of any description. No part of this report applies to the present Recor- der, whose books we find in excellent shape. w. A. PARR,
