Several weeks ago a horse stepped on Chas. Cornehus’ foot and badly bruised it, but he paid little or no attention to it.

Sunday J. O.

Anderson A. Austrang have had built a fine bar outfit for their Greenwood saloon. The panel work, etc, is all made of black ash, and furnished in its natural color. The top of the counter and side board are of red oak. The work was done by C. F. Moe, who is well know around here as being one of the best carpenters in the place. The size of the plate glass mirror is four by nine feet. The work on the outfit shows great skill and mechanical ingenuity.
