GETS A PATENT.
II. p. Jensen Invents a Useful Improve.
ment in Sleighs.

Fl. P. Jensen has received a'patent on
new and useful improvement in
sleighs. The invention relates more
particularly to the runners of sleighs,
and its object is to provide simple and
effective device which can be quickly
and readily attached to an axle of
buggy or other vehicle, which is strong
and permits the necessary oscillatory
motion of the runner without straining
the parts, and which involves means
for coupling it to an axle or other pro.
jecting part at separated or spaced
points, thereby avoiding friction on the
coupling devise as the latter turns. The
invention seems to haye much merit,
being simple, strong and effective, and
Mr.. Jensen has already received letters
concerning it. He intends to engage
in it's manufacture at his carriage fac
tory, and his friends will hope that he
will realize we'll from it.

officer. was present and reported that

which time it could be ascertained
whether the infection had been spread,
as other cases would develop among
the pupils within that time if at all.
The building should be fumigated

to close the building for week and
that it be thoroughly fumigated. This
was done today.
