Vile factory.
According to the new law which has
| just gone into effect, the burden OF ex-
aiming and paying for crows heads
and other trophies of the chase for
| which a bounty is offered, is lifted from
the county clerk and treasurer, and the
city, village and town clerks are directed
to make the settlements. Reports are

| board once a year and the latter will di-
| rect the clerk to draw orders on the
| treasurer for the amounts due to the
| various officers of the county divisions.

time the patient has been placed on the
operating table since Jane last, and

sisted OF joining the two ends of the
bowel which had been parted for some
