It iswhispered that he played euchre

he wenteo bed. AT / o'clock, as Boil

door. of Showers store, ard were
about to force an entrance when some
one inside walked across the floor and
they took alarm and fed, pursued by
a volley from those in the new house,
wounding several, but bringing none
down. The robbers left two horses
and several sacks, the latter having
the name of Hupp and Hedrick upon
them. Parties the next day started
out from Raymond City and Wind

to Justice, and especially W. W..

precautions have been made to pre-
vent such an action.

At 4 meeting of the Board of Edu-
cation, held on Saturday, it was re-
solved to suspend the Graded School
until the first Monday in January,
1876, on account Of smallpox. 1t
was further ordered that no scholar
shall be permitted to come to school
from any infected locality; and that
enrolled in this school shall be vac
cinatcd, and that no scholar shall be
permitted to take scat in The school
AnIess they furnish certificate from
some physician, that they have been
vacsiaatcd and that their vaccina-
ton has been cfectual. While this
order may seem severe, yet we hope
every parent will see the necessity Of
it. For those who are unable to pay
for vaccination, the Town Council
has provided for them, and empower.
ed the physicians to vaccinate all ap,
plying, at the expense Of the town.
The Board have been compelled to is.
sue this order and to enforce it, 70,
the protection of the school children
and the community.
This order also applies to the col

"Fathcr Bring Home Your Money

perance song and chorus, the words
by Mrs. N. A. Kidder, the music by
VIM. F. Sherwin, just published by
Horace Waters & Sons, 4S1 Broadway;
price 30 cents. The words of the ex-
quisite little song embody an appeal
Of a child to an Incorporate father
for his reclamation. The music is
adapted to interpret the touching APP
peal of the innocent, pleading child
and is of the choicest quality. This
song is one of the very best recent
musical contributions to the cause of
temperance, and should be welcomed
at every freside, in the Sabbath
School and lodge room, and will be 4
