 IT'S ALL CLEARED UP-After the rush of the last week or two things have assumed a normal aspect in the office of the county treasury. The last of the receipts for the payment of taxes were mailed last night. Those who are expecting them and do not receive them within day or two should call at the office or write to find out what is the matter. A final footing up shows that since the be- ginning of the paying season a lit tie more than S26S.00O has been paid in. nearly all of it within the last two weeks. This will leave the delinquent list below s20,O0O, perhaps not more than $15,000, something unheard of in this county since the settlement by the whites.

Mohn, giving the length of the box which should be brought along for the dead mans body. It was decided, though to order the body to be wrapped in and brought to the city this when the inquest will be neld Saathoff was formerly a conductor on the $. F. P. & P, but has for some time been interested m mining south of the Junction.
