Yours truly,



All kinds of business dull.
1t has quit raining down this
way. We have a great pour out
about every other day. The river
and creeks keep at fiood-tide all
the time.
Among the accidents from drown
ing none is more sad than the one
which occurred near this place yes
terday. A Mr.. Holly drove into
Middle creek and had his wife, two
children and team drowned. The
babe, some two months old, floated
on the water for two hundred yards
and was saved. The particulars are
not known at this writing. Mr.. III.
was a well-to-do farmer and re-
spected by his neighbors.
IMPROVEMENTS.
The foundation for the machine
shops of the L. L. s. G. railroad is
being laid. We are all glad. Work
on the thirty thousand dollar school
house is progressing finely. The
second story is up. 1t will be an
imposing-looking structure.

have charge of the editorial coll

have the means at command to
make an able paper, and if they
were on the right track politically
they would doubtless succeed. But
it remains TO be seen whether or

not throw dirt at each other, the
people will rejoice in their decent
success. C. *. r
