"NOTES"
-
The new
bell for the Baptist Church was shipped nearly two weeks ago. It weighs 406
pounds and was made in Baltimore. As soon as received it will be placed in
the tower in the church.

John
McMurtry, of Marshall, brought to this office a sample of beet sugar made in
Nebraska. It was white as the best granulated sugar and as sweet. The human
stomach that will not retain such sugar is in bad shape truly. The truth is,
there is no better sugar that beet sugar.

Howard
Bryant was able to get up town last week. He was on crutches and is terribly
emaciated from his recent sickness.
