BALLrNcALL DRUG STOCK SOLD.
Other News of the Court and Matters
BEFORE the Referee In Bankruptcy.

FROM IueSuayS Dally.
The Won Holtschuherr & Ayres drug
stock in the Ballingall pharmacy was
sold today at noon under an order
made by Referee in Bankruptcy John
w. Lewis, to j. C. Manchester, for the
sum of eight hundred dollars. 1t will
Ibe remembered that Won Holtschuherr
& Ayres filed petition in bankruptcy
short time ago in the federal court
at Keokuk before Judge Woolson. The
court was not then in session and the
matter was referred to Referee Coen,
the then referee in bankruptcy for this
district. w. II. Beck was appointed
trustee, and S. L. Ayres was retained
by him to operate the business. 1t
was found that the better thing to do
was to sell the stock. and an order
was made today ordering the trustee
to sell to the highest bidder, with the
above result. 1t is said that Mr.. Ayres
will be retained TO conduct the bust
ness, although Mr.. Manchester could
not be found to verify the matter. Won
Holtzschuherr & Ayres have been in
business in this city for a great num-
Der of years, and it is with regret that
the people will learn of their financial
misfortune. Mr.. Manchester is ster.
ling business man and will conduct
the affairs of his new departure as vel
as he has the hostelry.

AT the County Farm.
From Wednesdays Daily.

= T.. 4. 81 /
One hundred and three inmates Of
the county farm are looking forward
to Christmas time with all the glee that
children ordinarily exhibit. An excel
lent dinner is always served, and pres
ents are given. Mr.. Wilson has made
it point ever since he has had the
management OF affairs to make it a
season of rejoicing for the unfortun-
ates under his care, and this year will
be no exception to the rule.
Next Monday, at. noon, one hundred
and three persons will sit down to a
dinner that will rival that of any farm
er, and will be better than that which
a large number of town people will
partake of. Turkey, chicken, cram
berries, mince pie, fruit, confectionery,
and many other things that go to make
up Christmas dinner, will be on the
bill OF fare. In the afternoon there
will be what is called a ''postoffce.'
That is, the gifts from friends and rela-
tives will be placed in large box, each
gift labeled with the name of the in
tended recipient. Those who have
neither friends nor relatives will not
be forgotten in the distribution OF
it that something is provided. Every
holiday is looked forward to with
pleasant expectancy by the inmates,
because they know that the ''fiNins'
will be something extra, and the oc-
casion will be infused with that good
cheer and heartiness that the steward
and his estimable wife know so well
how to bring about.
