DE LAMAR DOTS.

So far, the best remedy for our fever
symptoms, is visit to the County seat.
The rear portion of the old Bank Ex-
change building on Main street, is being
torn down for removal to Bullionvile.
Rev. Father Manion has gone to De-
Lamar where he will hold religious services

tanks up goes on at the Delamar mill, and
good cold weather will find them all in

A. F. Gregerson has secured the contract
for digging the pipe line ditch for the April
Fool Company. The rate is not made public
but we understand he is limited to time and
has already sub.let five miles of the work to
three other parties, and four miles he will
work on himself. The pipe is ordered and
is on the way, and ninety days is likely to
see this water flowing into town.
Sweet potatoes, cranberries and other
toothsome Thanksgiving dinner sundries can

seems odd when we reflect that the Muddy
valley distant only IS miles produces some
elegant specimens and could easily supply
our market.
We acknowledge with thanks the receipt
of complimentary invitation to attend the
ball which will be given tonight under the
auspices OF the l. o. 0. F. Order, and re:

furnishings on side prevents it. Success,
however, to our sister towns rejoicing.
