which the trustees of the Price .
Estate will sell a lot of buggies, ;
wagons, harness and other imple- ;
ments on Feb. 27th. before the
stables racently occupied by the ;
Bennett Live Stock Co. In the (
lot are half a dozen new buggies

^ no doubt these will be sold at a
sacrifice.

revival meeting at the Presbyterian

deal of good. Mr. Spencer is a
strong and forceful preacher and
easily holds the attention of his
audience.
> Mr. G. C. Johnson came down
town at an unusually early hour
Friday morning his face aglow
with "that smile that won't come
off." He was inquiring for the
census taker, stating that another
voter had been added to the new
county and that the population of
our city had been increased and
he wanted it to show immediately
upon the records. "Guss" says
it is a most promising eight poynd
boy and he is considering serious"
