The country roads have been in such
condition the past week that very little
farm produce has been hauled to town.
Butter and eggs are scarce articles,
2sc, being paid in trade for the latter
and for supply of the former many
merchants have been required to buy
in the Elgin, ILL.,, market. Only few
small loads of logs are coming into
town and very little wood, tan bark
and hay are offered on the market.
Reports from the villages and towns in
the county, where numbering opera
lions are being carried on, state that
business is active and that roads are
kept open and great many logs are
being hauled. As the county is cleared
up more difficulty will be experienced
from year to year with snow drifts.
"Dr. >Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde" was
pldy6u db luc Opcid iOuisS puuQdy cNou-
ing to fair sized audience. The dual
roll was assumed by w. II. Hartigan,
who has improved somewhat since
when seen here in the play several
years ago. The vitality of the man is
wonderful when one considers that the
best tragedians will assume the role
only once week, so great is the strain
on their nervous system, yet this man
takes the part every night. There is
MOTH 1g elevating about the play and it
only illustrates, if anything, two natures
in men. 1t is nerve racking to an
audience and women, children and per-
sons of nervous temperament ought
not to be allowed TO witness it. Many
have assumed that the brain of the
author, Robert Louis Stevenson, was
diseased when he wrote it.
