Darlington Republican.
The G. NJ. u st. z. r. Il. Co., are 60
ing to put in new bridges near this
city in the near future. The pile driver
and a crew of men have been at work
for several days driving piles and the
company expect to have the bridges all
completed by June 1st. In this con-
nection, legal complication is likely
to arise, The Pecatonicais a navig-
able stream over which the govern
ment exercises aquarium rights. Hunt
& Chapman, of this city, own and run
a steam boat on the river. This work
of the company, for the tin the piles
are in the river, prevents he "Pearl
City" from running. We a:e inform
ed that her proprietors have uttered OBJ
jections and if they are, for any great
length of time prevented from run
ming their boat, will commence suit
against the company for damages.

My wife was confined to her bed for
over two months with very severe
attack of rheumatism. We could get
nothing that would afford her any re-
lief, and as last resort gave Cham
berlain's Pain Balm a trial. To our
great surprise she began to improve
after the first application, and by u.s.
ing it regularly she was soon able to
get up and attend to her house work.

A Revenue of $500.

Dodgeyille Chronicle.
1t is reported that three new sa-
looms are to be opened in this city
after the first of May, which will swell
the number to seven, and give the city
a revenue of $500. 1t is not likely
the number of saloons will increase
the consumption of liquor, as four
that are already open manage to sup
ply the demand, but they may divide
the profits. The number of saloons
neither whet the appetite nor enlarge
the purse.

The question as to who will be the next

Ninth ward.
