On Its travels it stopped at the home of Ja'rk Johnson,- the iusky aspirant for the championship honors of the prize ring.

The boy's at the Northern Pacific freight office tagged the leather with the Roses fragrant, roses rare" slogan. .One of thei.tags says the shoe was filled with rice and thrown after the departing carriage of a young married couple in Cincinnati. The bridegroom caught the shoe and filled It with silver for the railroad clerks. CONTINUE RIVER MAIL SERVICE BY STEAMER Government Asks for Bids on Contracts Covering ' River Points.
