Upou the river rock the State gets a eti
royalty of $1. per ton, and up to 1890

miiriinir. which has made him, for the
irne being, the foremost man in the
:ollegc. He entered the barber shop between
6 and 7 o'clock and waited his
turn to be served. The barber to whose

depopulated and every employee had declined
to shave him. -?<-n*t?xaaiieiUoJARd?,Jgitb..this,
