A1N ADVENTURE.
NOT FROM TIE DANBUKY NEW

NOT FROM TIE DANBUKY NEWS.
\ few days ago our bachelor friend
Church drove into OkaDena Lake with
his ox-wagon to get Il few barrels of
water. The oxen had not been def
nitely informed as to his purpose and
therefore took it into their heads, it
seems, that he wanted them to cross the
lake through the middle. Mr.. Church.
perceiving this misrepresentation. set up
a series of TIE most peculiar and I'M
moderate shouts which we ever heard
emanating from All ox-wagon, crying
"woe!' ''woe!" "woe!' to the oxen
with viYor worthy Of the MAJ, who
proclaimed the ruin Of the ancient city.
But those oxen kept right Oh, and Mr..
Church got up and walked out of tie
frying-lmn into the fire, that is, he walk
ct right off the hind end of the wagon
into the water and made for the shore.
The water seems to have had Il SOLDERING
AMI invigorating effect upon Mr..
Church. for he stopped where the lake
WAS about waist deep, turned round
and began some remarks and blandish-
ments in OK language, such as "jee 49,
" woe-iee - jee-woe-now :" "jee-ee-
EE-EE.' dwelling upon tile last word
at considerable length, emphasizing the
ahte-lennltimate, giving the rising in
Election to the pelultimate. and reach
ing perfect scream of Il climax at the
ultimate or final syllable. This seems
to have brought the oxen to Il sense Of
their mistake, for they turned to the
right with great deliberation and wadetl
ashore, looking us innocent as Il pair Of
twins.

On Sunday last, about noon, the
house Of NJ. Brtyton, of Indian Lake
township, was burned to the ground,
with all its contents except one or two
articles Of little value. Among tile al
ticles consumed were piano and Il
sewing machine. The house caught,
we learn, from Il spark Which fell into
the stable manure with which the
house had been banked up. The loss
falls very heavily on Mr. Brayton.
Another fire oc urred yesterday in
sight of town. The stable on Mrs.
Pentield's farm, Oh the West Lake,
caugllt tire about two clock in the a f.
ternoon, and was entirely consumed
Mr.. Mckee. who lives on the place,
lost some implements and u quantity
Of hay and feed. The house WAS saved
with great difficulty. We learn that
the stable manure with which the
house Was banked up WAS several times
on fire. The stable caught from apr:.i~
rte fire lighted Ivy Il boy who lives with
Mr.. Mckee.
There is quite penalty for firing
the ''r:trie. yet it is done every day
with impunity. This year especially,
when there is Il prospect Of quite Il
hatch of young grasshoppers, the prai-
RE grass should lie preserved III order
to burn them up. Those who need to
fight prairie fires may find it to ;,dval.-
tage to know that there is nothing
equal to wet bags for the purpose. One
man with Il wet bag or two can put out
al ordinary fire.
While upon this subject we wish to
call attention to the hay, straw and ma
nure, which cover half the lots in
Worthington. Wehave all that is need
ed for contlagration, except the spark,
and that may he applied at any moment.
DESTROYING TREES
Passing 10y Il claim Il few days ago
where there were Il number of trees set
averaging six and seven feet in height.
we noticed that six Or eight trees had
been destroyed, two Of which were cut
off smoothly with jack-knives, and the
rest were broken and twisted off
Whether done through spite or wanton-
ness, we cannot say. There is hardly
any species Of property i'll this county
which should lie 50 jealously guarded
and SO exempt from the hand of malice
as young trees. We notice also that
around one of the lots in town about
half the trees have been broken off.
! We hope the Council will give us a
stringent ordinance for the protection
of trees.
