U. S. Marshal, J. T. Hoile, and lady,

tablished his headquarters.
Wc presume the man who stole the
Herd law through last winter, and got it
enrolled and Bigned , notwithstanding its
indefinite postponement by the House,
will hereafter contend that he was only
"correcting the grammar" of the Legis

If the Recorder of Deedsjshould see fit
to change a document brought to him for
record, and should insert the description
of another piece of land in addition to
the one already described in said deed,
would it be held that he was only "cor

the deed.
Messrs. Lonsbary, . General Superin
tendent, and Acklin, Route Agent of
the Western Stage Company, were in
the city yesterday morning. Their line
to this city is becoming one of grent im

sity of looking after interior connections
from this city.

The Chronicle, says we are opposed
to any road being built through Cass
county that does not pass in the vicinity
of Ilattsniwuth. That is all a mistake.
We only objected to the Chronicle asking
pay for its road, when it had it already
built and the car running, and could just
as well set it down in Cass county as not.
Under the circumstances, we think the
Chronicle should make the people of Cass
a present of at least one road out of the
many it has on its hands.
Mr. Harry Brown of the California Dra
matic Company, was in the city yesterday
looking for a hall in' which he could per
form with his troupe. We are sorry
to say ' that he was compelled to leave
town without making any arrangements,
for the very good reason that we have
no suitable Hill. Will somebody or
some several bodies build a Hall suita

time has arrived when we need such
building, and it will pay.
Gilfoil, the belligerent "John Bull"
who was sent to jail last week, made an
attempt to "go through" the Exchange
Saloon last Monday, while out under
charge of Street Commissioner Hohl-
schuh, working out his fine. Sheriff
Johnson and Marshal Murphy were
close at hand, and soon "corralled" him
insicie tlie prison walls. He wiu soon
learn that it is a difficult matter for one

amply supplied with glasses, and from
tne manner in winch tney are re

by some that a new science has been re

see the eclipse just as well with the
mouth as with the eyes. They looked
often (always applying the small end of
the telescope to their mouth) and direct
ly it became ko dark that they were una
