Miss Eveline Brewer requests
through the good will of the IRON
COUNTY REGISTER to thank the
good people Of Sabula for their
funds donated by them and their
neighbors around for the up-build-

down last August, and the house
is being rebuilt as fast as could be

that Ex-Sheriff Joseph A. Baker of
Reynolds county, Missouri, did at
st. Louis shoot and kill Mrs. An
ma Read, and then himself at the

About five o'clock Saturday
evening Fred Warren and Jack
Farris had a little jower and the
result was, Fred knocked Jack
down and kicked him a few times,
and Farris is now wearing a very

rival of George Robinson it might

Governor Hadley has signed the
bill against carrying guns, which
in ninety days becomes a law and
in many instances it is a peniten-
tiary offence to carry a concealed
weapon. Look out, boys. There
is a many an Iron county boy car
rying a gun to-day, while it is OF
no value to them to do so, and this
law will be enforced more so than
the former laws have been.
You, game hunters, bird hunters,
and robbers of BIRDS nests, ought
to get the new laws and read up
on them and save your officers
from watching after you, as they
cannot let you go at large for they
are under the same penalty if they
catch you doing the acts and don't
enforce the law on you, of a fine
not less than $40 nor over $500, anG
all costs, if let go.
| am informed that Jake Grand
homme of Ironton is going to turn
his pool room into a regular
restaurant and hotel in the neal
future, and furnish beds and meals
at ALI hours, day and night. He
and Harry Holland would make
up-to-date landlords and there
would be no grass growing under
their feet, as the old customers
would flock to them where they
will always be welcome and a
home.
