There are now three stores, -- G.H. BELL & Co., F.M. HAMAKER and MCHENRY -- two lumber yards, -- BELL & Co., and JOHN THROCKMORTON, -- one millinery shop, MRS. H.A. BARNHOUSE, -- one blacksmith, SAM'L WRIGHT, -- one doctor, S.H. STUTSMAN, -- and one carpenter, T.F. ENSLOW.

The frame for the Methodist Church is being put up and the blocks for the Presbyterian set.

During April, 10 cars of lumber were received, and 2 cars of potatoes, 8 cars of oats and 4 cars of hogs shipped; merchandise, the freight of which amounted to some $400 was also received, and 75 cases of eggs expressed to MOONEY at Chariton.

B.F. CHAPMAN is postmaster, and I.N. HALL, Station agent.

DR. STUTSMAN has just completed a pleasant little residence.
