  • Notes 
    • LaCourse is Handling Letters.

      John D. LaCourse took charge as assistant postmaster here yesterday. No other changes are booked for the present.

      Mr. Rosecrans, the retiring assistant, has several offers of positions already, and will probably accept a good one in Omaha, which was made yesterday. He is considered one of the best bookkeepers in the country.
