They will put up a fine two stary brick this summer, an ornament and an acknowledged credit to the town. There is a movement on foot among the citizens of the place to improve the opportunity and secure a town hall at a little additional cost. It will surely be a benefit to our place, to all business men, and especially to the livery men. "We hope that this object will be a success and a town ha.ll be secured. Court sets next week with a full docket. Mr. Ed. Hasson of Indiaaapolis, a young ma-a of experience in business has become associated with our popular dry goods merchant, U. S. Fosdick, in the same business. Mr. Hasson comes well recommended, and, as his father and Mr. Fosdie were associateed in business together fifteen years since, the name of Hasson Ls familiar to most of our old tiadei-s in the county. We predict s-ucce&s Cor the firm in the future.

have begun business and promise to the people a place where they can buy their paints and oils cheaper and get better than the

countj' affords. Quite a number of our citizens visited the Leap year party at Lotus last week. The new firm Atkinson, Bros, dealers in agricultural implements, one door north of Hayden's drug store, is launching out with an encouraging business.
