A Busy Night

The history of Saturday night' activlty down town, if cornpletely written up, would be an iuteresting one, In the first place, promptly at half pastseven the old post-oflicc was closed and the employees immedlately applled themselves to the transferring of the mails, records and books to the new block. All was completed In a couple of hours. Then the carpenters took possesslon and began to remove the llxtnres. So by midnlght the entire larjje room was thoroughly cleaned out and vacated, ready tor Meusrs, Lew Is & Grlbson to more in Monday morriingand occupy as a photograph room. In the ineantime the postmaster and hi8 assiotants were kept bu?y neiirly all night in getting thlngs arranged in their new quarters. Early In the evening Mr. Boughton, the Xews dealer, bcgan moTiug, and Ly twelve had surrounded himself wlth hls stock n the new place iltted for liim by the siete of the lobby of the post-offlee. And tïom still another diiection packages and fUniiture were being rushed into the building. Mr. Southi.rdand hismen were busy in transferring hisebairg and shaving utensils from the shop north of the St. James to the Becond floorof the new block where Monday morning iound him running in full bliist a barber shop and bath rooms. No sooncr was the former room vacant when the Express Agent, Mr. Ames, and the W. U. Telegraph operator, Mr. Pulslter, betjan to move into it After the place is litted up, Mr. Durheim will move hls stock of tobáceo in. The lattermove is made necessary toenablethe new bank to takc possesion of the corner building used for the cigar store. So with all this done after business hours one can easily imagine it was a lively scène about tbe court house square Saturday night. It wasllkea llvely game of "Poor Pussy want' a corner."
