DUNNVILLE ITEMS.

Wm. B. Austin was in our town the 25th on' business. Uncle Alex Hughes is visiting friends in Russiaville and looking as ter his farms there. We will soon have a new trustee and we hope that he will open our school-houses for public worship granting equal rights to all and special privileges to none. An Illinois man was in our town this week. He said he came out to look after a farm which he purchased 1877, but as he had never seen the land he bought he feared he would have some trouble finding it. He did find it however in Section 3 of Walker Tp. He is the happy owner of the sand ridge known as King hill, Mr. Jensen, of Chicago was in Dunnville Thursday, We see the Pilot states that Rensselaer has the best choir in the state. Now what is the matter with Dunnville ? Better watch out there how you talk. Gus Walters has a new threshing machine* Will begin his round in the ripened fields soon. Mrs. Seomo is the guest of Mrs. C. Rasmerson. Turner and Jackson who purchased a new thresher last year had so much trouble with it they had to report to the Company of whom Uey purchased for help to run the thing. The Co. sent out an expert who decided that the machine was no good and agreed to send a new one in its stead. We hope the new one will prove a success. Mrs. Hilderbseth and Mrs. Amburg are the guests of Mrs. P. Behles.
