The first work tuey do will be on the ‘dam beyond the river bridge. This is a good move, and we hope will go on until the roads all over the coun- ty are worked. Of Interest to Advertisers. ly editions ot the Rerrector are preserved in nicely bound volumes that are always handy for reference. These volumes are often referred to by law- yers and others to establish proof that certain legal matters are properly ad- vertised as required by law. The Re- FLECTOR is also adopted by the Board: of County Commissioners as the offi- cial paper of the county. These facts should be considered by persons having legal advertising to do, as when the pa pers are so well preserved access can be hai :o the files without trouble. PECULIAR DEATHS.
