JNcw curbing is being put in nround the now government building , to take the place of that taken away by the cily. It is ntill a query M to who got the benefit of the old curbing , which was first taken by the city to put in front of its own property , and then taken down Main street and put in front of private propcry. There was thus about § 200 worth of Undo Sam's curbing thus taken. Uncle Sam has made the city put curbing in its place , but who got the benefit of Undo Sam's curbing ? The city , some contrac tor , or private parties ? A ! ) year-old BOH of J. W. Morse has boon quito ill for several days , requiring care day and night , but is now somewhat bettor , The cause of the little fellow's Biifrdringu , which have boon intense , waa the rough uaago of aomo other boys t school.

Thd Morco hey had his right arm badly hurt and received a kick in the groin so that ho has since bcon confined to his bod. It is under stood that the Allen boy and another lad has eincoboon expelled. The publication of an article in Satur day's Br.E concerning ono J. A. Forgu- sor. , who sooma to bo realizing on fraud ulent drafts drawn on J. Groonhood & Co. , of Chicago , arouses the suspicion that this Ferguson is none other than the J. Alfred Ferguson who was the private secretary of the mayor , and who skipped out of here with some of the mayor's monoy. IIo was brought back hero and put in jail , but finally released. A BRF. man recently mot Ferguson in Omaha , and the latter then claimed that ho was travelling for a safe and lock house and doing an immense business , ho having sold locks and safes to several largo banks. Groeuhood it Co. warn the pub lic to look out for J. A. Ferguson , and it looks as if it was the name young man who formerly was Vaughan's man Friday. Ituy your Thanksgiving hnta and bon- at J.

It will not bo dillioult to got all the petitions they ncoi , for the old building is now in such condition that it ia dvl- duntly only a matter of choice , whether the county will bo a new ono , or whether aomo building will bo rented for ofiiccH , and the priuonora boarded at Fort MudiHOn oroomewhoro clao at thn county'a expense.
