Mesdames Henry Alger and J.Mason
have opened up an ice cream parlor in
tbe building just north of the Sentinel office where tbey offer for sale
refreshments that tickle the taste
with a toothsome twang, send delicious chills to every fibre of your being,

cucumber kissed by the morning dew
drop.

The song of Will Adams at the fire-
men's concert not long since in which
he asserted, "We've been waiting,
trustees, waiting long for you," had
tbe desired effect, as the public will
no longer be obliged to wade in mud
to the Knees in front of the Congregational church and parsonage, a durable walk having been laid this week.

Tbe train over the Mt. Pleasant
branch which left here at nine o'clock
Wednesday morning instantly killed
the three year old daughter of John
Bees" at Delwin. The family only
live a few rods from the station and
the little child in company' with another about the same age, was playing
near the track at the south end of a
box car which stood on tbe switch
only a few feet from the main line.
As the train was Slowing up the Bees
cbild stepped onto the track within
twenty feet of the engine. A man by
the name of Tanner was waiting for
tbe train, noticed tbe child's danger
and made an attempt at rescue. He
had picked the child up when "the ea-
gine struck crushing the child's fcead
and throwing Tanner against tfae «c*r
and for a time it was thought be>obaW
not live. He was taken to hie <home
in Mt. Pleasant and is now recovering.
