Miss Belle Turner of Mt. Sterling is visiting friends and relatives 
in our city.

Mrs. Rosa Pieratt and sister Clara in company with several friends 
came up from Ezel on the first of the week.

The post office at Daysborough in this county, has been 
re-established by the Postoffice Department and S. C. Alexander

At Beattyville laborers are receiving 15 cents an hour, or from 
$1.50 to $1.80 per day;  common carpenters command 20 cents 
an hour, or from $2 to $2.40 per day, and best carpenters 
get 25 cents an hour for 10 or 12 hours a day, as they may elect. 
 Here is a chance for some of our idle men to secure a snug sum 
of clear cash ere the winter frosts come again, and they should 
avail themselves of it at once.
