hotel yesterday. was excellent, and
well patronized. All the delicacies OF
the season were served. Miss Rich

to serve the public. ard she sustained
this reputation Thursday in a most
satisfactory manner to her patrons.

with the lamentable condition OF the
streets. III il is possible, temporary
sidewalks should be laid along the

A habit practiced by boys, one both
annoying and dangerous, is that OF

get killed. 1t seems as though the
city marshal could stop this practice,
if he would make an example OF few
of these misehievous little fellows.
