The Burlington railroad company
has been sinking a we'll at Sibley and
on Monday morning struck a good
supply of water. While putting
down the casing it suddenly went
down about twenty feet and the wa

We met A. r. Albertus and took a
look at his establishment. Mr.. Albertus
has a fine building adapted to his
business and has it filled with fine
stock of clothing and gents furnish
ing goods as ever displayed in the
west, and W can assure the people
of Mobiles county that they will find
him straight man in all of his
dealings with them and one who will
not misrepresent goods or quality.
He and his estimable wife will be
valuable addition to the social circle
of that bright little city by the lake
bed west of us.-Jackson Republic

The hooking bird fire whistle will
soon be put up and ready for service.
It would be good idea to put in a
few alarm stations which could be
done at very small expense by u.s.
ing set of bells and stringing the
wire on the electric light poles. One
should be put in at the engine house,
one in the mill and elevator district,
and one in the Clary addition end of
town at least. In case of fire in these
districts the alarm could be sounded
without it being necessary to run to
the telephone or power house and
thus save great deal of time in not
only sounding an alarm but would
enable the fire apparatus to be more
quickly taken to the fire. The fire.
men and council should take the
matter up as it might prevent seri-
GUS fire.
