ALWAYS THE HOME OF SATISFACTION
The county commissioners were
in session yesterday at the court
house and spent the morning al
lowing the different claims
against the county and other
routine matters, and in the afler
noon drove down below the Ihir
lington bridge lo look over the
situation in regard to putting in
a new road there, me projected
road will run just west of the old
Kdgerton place and a bridge will
have to be placed over the creek,
which will require about a "JO-foot
structure. The matter has been
agitated by' the residents in that
locality, who find it quite dif
ficult to reach the city over the
present road, which is decidedly
out of the way. The commission
ers will take the question of the
new road up later in their session.
From Wednesday's t'ally.

pleasing news to the citizens. The

possible lo do anything with her.
She is a woman of about ;J7 years
of age and has not been sound
mentally since she was taken with
an attack of scarlelina at the afa
uf .'J years. She was sent to the
asylum in I'.HI from Humboldt,
which is her home, and al Ihe
hearing in that, city some very
sensational facts in regard lo her
were brought mil. While living in
the home of her brother-in-law
Hie unfortunate woman was takeu
advantage of and the broHier-ii-law
acknowledged that lie was Ihe
guilty parly in the case and the
doctor who testified al the hearing
staled that lie had "helped her out
of trouble several limes" prior to
the bearing. Her violent spells
have become more frequent and

pital for Ihe insane and shewas
ordered sent lo t hat institution.
