JOHN EGER.

Leslie Clark has contracted for the sale of the house recently purchased of Bert Hopkins and moved to a lot on Angelica street to Mr. and Mrs. Samuel O. Duvall. The house has been put in first elass condition and is being stuccoed, which will make the building look like new. Mr. Hopkins will continue to reside there until the completion of his new house in the fall, when Mr. and Mrs. Duvall will take up their residence therein. Dennis Casto and mother spent one day this week rath Harvey Casto at Longcliffe and found him in rapidly failing health. His mind had greatly improved but he has no appetite and it is probable that he can not long survive. He had scarcely eaten a thing for a week before they saw him. He talked freely with them and begged them to bring him home and they may decide to do this, if it meets the approval of the superintendent. Hig mother and sister are very anxious to have him home to spend his last days, and they are willing to take every care of him.
