We are informed that the sales at the lumber yard, in this village, since September 1, 1867, foot up the hand­ some sum of $4099.96. This we believe to be a good showing for twenty days1 sales. This yard is aow owned by the Wilbur Lumber company, who has re­ cently put up uew sheds and is carry­ ing one of the largest and finest stocks of lumber of all kinds to be fbund in this seetion, and is selling at prices that will compare favorably with any yard in the Northwest.* C. H. Granger is the manager, who will give you esti­ mates on large or small lots and guar-1 antee satisfaction. Before you buy your lumber be sure and get figures from the yard in this village. Sunday last being the twentieth an­ niversary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. John I.

About 8 o'clock the company, to the number of about sixty, took possession of their residence and proceeded to make themselves at home. Mr. and Mrs. Story, altho taken en­ tirely by surprise, accepted the situa­ tion and surrendered gracefully; and the result was one of the most pleasant and enjoyable evenings that has been spent in this village for many a day. Before they departed the guests pre­ sented Mr. and Mrs. Story with a very handsome china tea set as a token of their regard and a remembrance of their twentieth anniversay, with the wish they might live to celebrate their silver, golden and diamond weddings under equally as pleasant prospects. During the evening Mrs. Julia Bishop and Miss Maggie Clark sang a very beautiful and appropriate song for the occasion. The evening all in all was one that will long be remembered with pleasure by all present. "WHAT HAPPENED TO FBtTZ."

COMPANY or in COIfIACT IS LET FOR COUNTY JAIL TO ENUME BUILDING AND INSTALL ALL NEW STEEL CAGES. Woodstock Sentinel: On Wednesday the McHenry county board of super­ visors let the contract for the building and equipping of an entirely new coun­ ty jail. This includes enlarging the old building by ten feet in width, the tearing out of the entire old interior cell work and the installing of modern steel cages, patterned after the .most improved present day methods of con­ struction. The contracts were let in three parts. The first was for the building construction work, which went to C. E. Giertz & Son for $8,000; then came the installation of sixteen all new double cages, which went to the Pauly Jail Building company of St. Louis, Mo., for $5,090, while the electric wir­ ing was given to an Elgin firm. At the June meeting of the board the plans of W. W. A bell, the Elgin architect, for an entire new jail were accepted and the building committee authorized to secure bids for the work. This the committee did, but on account of the large expenditure involved it was decided to let the entire board pass on the letting of the contracts. Under the contracts, which were signed Wednesday, work will begin at once and Contractor Giertz will have a gang of men busy in a few days get­ ting ready to build the new founda­ tions. During the building operations such prisoners as it may be necessary to hold in jail will doubtless be sent to some neighboring county for safekeep­ ing. MVST FIX BAD MAM. The government postal department at Washington has notified the post­ masters thruout the county that all roads which are in poor repair on all rural mail routes, or portions of such routes, must be fixed before the fall rains set in, if they can be fixed, or the carriers will not be required to travel them- The roads about Mo- Henry contain few bad plaoes, but where they do need fixing it is up to the farmers living along the poor high­ ways to get busy with the road com- missioners and have them repaired if they wish the mail delivered regularly upon the routes in their distriote.
