In the Gallery they have one feature which Is not equalled by any we have ever seen, it is a series of serenes Just below the sky light, by which the operator can throw the light just whole he wishes, in fact he has the light en tirely at his command, and cau take pictures from early morn to dusky eve;" In fact at any time of the day.

Thus they have control of three Yards, can pur chase their Lumber on a larger scale than ever heretofore, and Brownvllle is still more firmly entrenched as the Lumber Market of Southern Nebraska.
