It's some years since We escaped
late frost, and it came all right Thursday |
morning, though We may get another
later. Temp eratures as low as 20 were
repAr.sG 10 different parts of the village.
As the clo. weather had delayed plant
inc there were not so many crops to
suffer as might have been. The ground
was &c q the early morning.
The F Il. Noyes Co., who have been
occupying the store in the Maxim build
ing ON Pine street since the fire, moved
their clothing stock back into their
former store in Maxim Block, Market
Square, last week. Since the fire tbs
store has been done over with steel
ceiling and new paper and paint.
number of plate glass showcases for the
goods have been put in, and new display |
racks added so as TO give better ar
rausemeut Of the stock than before.
The most extensive single job of side
walk building for the season has been
done during the past week, the concrete
sidewalk started in front of the dental
Office % Dr. Carl S. Briggs being extend
ed past Bennett Block, True Block and
Odd Fellows Block, TO the corner OF |
High Street. The concrete takes the /
place Of the brick walk formerly in use, /
which had become worn and uneven. |
The grade of the walk has been raised |
some inches, and its lines Strengthened. |
What with the building of the cement |
sidewalk, the relaying of the street rail-
road track, and the moving OF safe or
so, with other sundry activities, Market
Square has been lively looking place
for the past week, and the sidewalk COM
mlJtee has been looking carefully after
IT'S duties. A travelling man who was
here daring the week said that this was
the liyeiiest town be had struck in some |
moons. Not very productive industry,
Of course, from the merchandise stand |
point, but busy just the same.
The Democrats next serial story, to
begin soon, will be "Penrod," by Booth
Harrington. This is the story of tpyi-
ca midle west boy, as pictured in the
brain of the well-known writer. IL is
said to have so engrossed Theodore
Roosevelt, while on his way to fill a
speaking engagement, that he neglected
his preparation for the address. One OF
its good features is that it is not neces-
ssry to carry closely in mind the char
acters or the plot, but any installment OF
1t can be picked up for reading at con-
venience, without having to recall the
connecting links.
An interesting incident in connection
with the sidewalk work done last week
was the discovery of corner monument
under tina bricks IL was intarastiup
