Granger was down from Hammond yesterday looking after some business interests he has in this county. He was formerly engaged in the saloon business at Kersey, but since deposed by remonstrance he has been working In Hammond and now holds a good position with the South Shore Gas and Electric Co.

Mrs. Harry Hendricks came down from Chicago yesterday evening to remain for about two weeks with her brother, William Bennett and family. Her husband and son Clarence, who started for Washington about two weeks ago, report a fine trip, with stop overs at Denver, Salt Lake City and Portland. They went to Seattle, Wash., and thence to Hoquam, where some of the Kissinger boys reside. There seems to be plenty of work there and good • wages. Mrs. Hendricks plans to join her husband in Washington in about a month and they will probably make their future home there. a— County Treasurer Allman has just had installed in the vault at the treasurer’s office a neat hard wood cabinet for keeping the tax duplicate records. The shelving which is in four tiers consists of 44 apartments, and the tax duplicates which formerly lay on the floor are now classified by years and arranged on the shelves. The first tax duplicate on file is for the year 1864 and one book was sufficient each year up to 1867 when two. were required. Later it took three and then four each year and now there are eight in use. The cabinet gives Treasurer Allman an opportunity to better systematize his books.
