Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Mar. 10, 1883 ANNOUNCEMENT For County School Commissioner We are authorized to announce FELIX H. JANIS as a candidate for County Commissioner of Public Schools, at the annual school election to take place on Tuesday, April 3d, 1883. A bird that plays the French harp - Willie ABERNATHY. According to WIGGINS, there should be a terrible storm raging at present. A neat sign has been attached to the front of MEYER's Hotel, setting it off to advantage. The ghost who has been fooling the town people since last week, came one month too early. Mrs. KERN has gone to St. Louis to replenish her stock and will shortly return with a full line of new spring styles. Missouri produced in the year of 1883, 27,538,000 bushels of wheat, of this amount, Ste. Genevieve furnished nearly one million bushels. Last week, our thoroughbreds were watching for the ghost, three at each crossing. We haven't heard of any broken bones; the fellow must have "smelt a mice." There is to-day just four times as much wheat in the Cone Mills as the whole state of Massachusetts produced in the year 1882, and nearly twice the amount that Connecticut produced in the same year. Just in - 50 cases of the unexcelled Winkelmeyer Bottled Lager Beer, in quarts and pints, at MRS. J. FALK & SON. Ferdinand BIESER, the efficient road overseer at Quarrytown, has repaired the River aux Vases bridge lately. Though competent judges expressed their opinion that the expenses would amount to $50, he finished the job for $35. Our friend BERRY told us last Wednesday that he had resigned his position as teacher at New Bourbon, and was going to shake the dust of Ste. Genevieve off his boots and try his luck in St. Louis; he was as good as his word and departed the same night. Mr. Felix H. JANIS announces himself in this issue as a candidate for the office of Co. Commissioner of Public Schools. Mr. JANIS is a scholar and a gentleman, perfectly competent to fulfill the duties of the office to which he aspires, and will no doubt fulfill them if elected. One of the younger millwrights thought to celebrate the event, of part of the force leaving for St. Louis, by proposing a kicking game. He kicked a little too high, lost his balance and fell upon his wrist, breaking a bone in it. He carried his arm in a sling this week.
