The Ironton REGISTER complains of
the rottou board c~ulverts in the streets
of that town and is also crying for
street lights. Ironton may be ahead
of Potosi in some respects, but we can
give our neighbor points on municipal
improvements. Potosi has the best
streets of any town its size in this part
of the State and they are also well
lighted at night by gasoline
lamps. Send a commission up here,
is done.-PotOSi Journal.
So far as the lights are concerned
Potosi may '.lay it over' Ironton. but
when it comes to good streets and love-
Iy drives there isn't a town in South
east Missouri that compares with ours.
Mr.. Geo. W. Kanouse desires the
REGISTER to o to the public
that he has recently taken charge of
the Commercial Hotel. The building
has been repaired and reitted and is
now in first-class condition. The rooms
are clean and comfortable and the
table will at all times be supplied with
the best the market affords. Mr.. IA
mouse s~olicits a share of the public
patronage. promising every attention
looking TO the ease and comfort of the
guests.
A couple of weeks since the REGISTER
told of some grave diggers in the Pilot
Knob cemetery unearthing a casket
and finding the corpse in a perfect
state of preservation. None of the
older residents could identify the body
Francis Mesnard, who lives in the
north end of IroDton, says the remains
are those of a Frenchman named Ducret
who died al Pilot Knob during the war.
Mr.. Mesnard didn't view the corpse
when it was exhumed the other day,
but from the description OF the casket
he is satisfied that his conclusion as to
the identity of the remains is correct.
