Old acquaintances are apt to turn up anywhere and often unexpectedly, we were agreeably surprised last week to meet by chance an old lriend and associate Mr. Eugene Nicolett a talented gentleman an Oaioian born and reared. He made a stop over here between trains which was brief.

He is the owner of Lewises first addition to the town and the land is not being held for speculation. He proposes to prevent such a condition and is keeping enough of that kind of property out of the market to give those persons who want to speculate a chance when tiioy do come. He is not boastful of his addition or is he endeavoring to create in any sense a boom for it, with railroad adjacent, it will need none of the modern efforts to elevate it into importance. Mr. Lewis is a genial gentleman and an earnest driver of trade... .Mr. William Cummins has
