Two Worthy officials.

Capt w. E. Kyle, now the popular
soliciting agent Of the A. G. l. Ry !,
was in our city yesterday. We are
always glad to see him, for we cannot
forget his kindness of the past. He,
aud our old friend J j Croswell, the
courteous Route Agent for the South
cru Express Co are always welcome
guests to u city. If all corporations
had as clever gentlemen as these two
to represent them. they would certain
ly be fortunate, and we don't believe
there would yer be any complaint or
friction with their patrons.
