The "pie social" at Co, Su perintendent Tourner's home, was a musical and financial success. Several of our best local musicians took part. The musicalc at the M. E. church, Friday night, was a great success, and some $20, the nett receipts, were added to the parsonage fund. The new boilers for the water works company have arrived. They are of much greater capacity than the others, and will doubtless do the work alter being placed in position. On Thursday lasf the will made by Ben. MeG-ee was filed for probate in the county clerk's office. The instrument was drawn up by Senator Fulk and signed by deceased and witnessed by Dr. Weir and Senator Fulk on the 2Stfi of April last.

He dashed off up 7th st., turned on lhc Avenue and was apparently hurrying home to Kirby's grocery, but couldn't pass between the posts near Lindley's drug store with ease, so ho left the wagon hanging there and ran into the arms of a south side business man.
