sat It is rumored very strongly and we have reason to believe there is some truth in the rumor that George B. Doub, the pleasant clerk in McCaffrey Co's grocery will be a candidate for nomination for City Treasurer, at the coming democratic primary election. The Birthday and Mite society of the U. B. church met last evening at the home of Amos Eunee, on Byran street.

A good program was rendered. After theMite society had adjourned the 1 idies Aid society of the church served oranges to all present who would agree to pay one cent for every seed found. A neat sum was realized for the Aid society. Property owners whose real estate abuts upon the streets which council proposes to improve with permanent brick roadways should remember that they must file notice with the city clerk that they propose to take advantage of the law giving them ten years in which to pay their proportion of the cost. A failure to giye this notice makes the whole assessment fall due at once.
