Some large steel culverts were
received here Friday to be put in
the highway by Chris Kuk's place
south west of town to furnish an
outlet for the drainage bitches that
he and his neighbors are putting
in. 81. G.. Davis, Carl Hirsch and
some others are also doing some
ditching. In some places an out
let can be made by running a ditch
along the public highway thus serv-
ing the purpose of draining the
highway as we'll as the farms ad-
jacent. In such cases the COM
missioners help to bear the expense
thus making the cost lighter both
for the county and the farmers.
The culvert and ditch by Mr.. Kuk'si
place were put in by the farmers,
as the roads we're not benefited by
them.

show troupe which showed here
Saturday night, and attached a
portion of the door receipts. AS
we understand the case, MI. Free
man claims that he made a con.
tract with the advance agent of the
company to board the entire troupe
while here. When the company
arrived they got board and lodging
elsewhere, claiming that the rates
offered were too high. The man

such contract was made, and say
the advance agent has no author

the members of the troupe are paid
salaries and pay their own expens-
es. The Ease will be tried before
Justice Chamberlain next Satur-
day.

man on the train who, it is said,
got somewhat intoxicated and was

guage in the presence of the lady
passengers. Complaint was made
to Conductor Scott and he ordered
the fellow from the coach. The fell
