Messrs. JOHNSTON & WILSON, Gents: I wish to state that I am permanently engaged with the Minneapolis Harvester Works as Superintendent o£their Factory,having charge of their Harvesters and Twine Binders. I feel a deep interest in the success of the Minneapolis Machine and shall use my best endeavors and devote my entire energy to make the "Minneapolis" the most reliable and perfect machine in the market, J. F. APPLEBY.

Inventor and patentee of the Appleby Twine Binder.

THE burglars have been about this week as lively as tne bial flea, and like that insect it is cult to pat fingers on them. Daring tl week visits have been made to the dwellings of R. S. Cox, William Paddoek, Mrs. Sarah O'Boyle, J. «T. Baur, Mr. Kidder, J. A. Foote, Bert McCormick, W. H. Coleman, Mr. Borden, on Seventh street, A. B. Stoner, Jacob W. Miller, W. A. Atkins, Jamas Fortune, the leather store of L. A. Burnett and grocery store of J. F. Roedel—a pretty good list for one week. The only person who has caught sight of one of these unwelcome visitors is H. Greenawalt, who rooms at J. W. Miller's. It was yesterday morning at about five o'clock. The fellow had got into Mr. H's room and struck a match. It awakened the sleeper who saw a small mar. with a maak or blackened face. Seizing an Indian club used for gymnastic purposes, he gave chase, but the burglar escaped. At William Paddock's residence the burglar opened the door of Miw» Letha Paddock's room. She heard him eoming and shouted "Get out!" Out he got! Very little booty was obtained at any of these houses.

THE City Council seems to be quite favorable to the proposition to light the streets of this city with electric lights. At the meeting on Tuesday evening the gentlemen composing the committees on gas and streets and bridges reported that, after a long and careful study of the plan of lighting with towers, including a trip bo Aurora, Illinois, where the sys tem is in use, they believe that it is the proper thing for lighting the streets of cities, and that it is only a question of time—and a short time—before it will become general. By vote of the Council—Farrington and Grace only voting in the negative—it was resolved that the proposition of the Brush Electric Light company of this city be accepted, provided a satisfactory contract can be made and the Mayor, City Attorney, and Committees above-named were authorized to make a contract and report at the next meeting for the approval ot the Council.

ANOTHER small-pox case has been developed—a mild case of varioloid. Robert Herbert is a hostler in the employ of Col. Thompson. He is married and lives on Poplar street, near Water. He was sick several days, his illness being attended by a fever and severe pain in his back and head. On Sunday the symptoms were undeniably those of sinall-pox. After a number of physicians had examined, him, it was decided to be a oase of varioloid.

GREAT care or judgment, should ^e exercised in sending sick persons to pest house. Some two weeks ago, Fort Wayne, two boys were taken the pest house, to be treated for smal pox, and were discharged, having pronounced eured. Last Wednesday, was ascertained that both boys had the disease, contracting it at the pest house, where they had been taken, through a misapprehension that they bad the small-pox when taken there. A ease of this kind occurred here several years ago, a yonng man named Hughes, resident of Lost Creek township, being tip victim.
