EDS. HERALD.-Our little city is full of
life, everybody has something to do, and
all are as busy as bees in the summer sea-
son, business affairs are healthy, when
everybody moves about and has something
to move for, such makes merchants, doc
tors, tailors, shoemakers and preachers, to
feel comfortable and happy. We have
noticed three or four trains here at
the same time, all of them departing
loaded with the "black diamond" which
is 50 essential on these cold evenings to
make the fire-side part of refuge and COM
fort. We estimate the Coal Co.'S pay roll
for this month will be about $15 900, their
coal seems to give better satisfaction this
winter than ever it did before. The coal
is getting better and more pure as they
penetrate the hills. The coal company
has become great success, when we
think that they do ship per day about
81, 900 bushels of coal, but it is no wonder
when we have such men as Hon. E. Clark
and H. w. McNeill at the head of affairs,
their success is attributed to their human
ity. A. G. Anterior who has been APP
pointed master of transportation on the
G. II. II. of Iowa, visited this place last
week to arrange matters in regard to ship
ping coal with greater rapidnity. He is a
live man of business, left here for Beacon
to make similar arrangements.
w. G. Perdue left here last week to take
in the organization of Commandery at
Marshalltown, and from there went east
to purchase new stock of goods for their
store. Their sale from the first day of
this month amounted to about 81, 900
such sales will keep Perdue on the Gears"
continually.
DR.. G. s. Atchison of Abba paid a
visit to w. G. Perdue here. Charming
made it interesting for the DIR. 1t was in
teresting to see Charming fixing his bed in
his sanctum sanctorum to accommodate
his father-in-law; Johnny Perdue don't
shake the table.
School commenced at Stringtown, last
Monday, teacher Mr.. H. T. Austen. There
are two schools in our township Mt nres-
ant. The directors deserves great praise
for the manner in which they manage
school matters in the township; but we
are sorry to learn that our worthy Co.
Supt. should take the trouble to interfere
with the directors of this district, hope
1t is not owing to any desire on his part,
TO lend helping hand to the opposition
in school affairs, we are liable to have eur
fingers burned, when interfering In other
peoples business, hands of gentlemen.
J.H. High has reopened his picture
gallery here.
The farmers have gathered ell their
corn in this vicinity and are now laying
over until spring. @.

CoUNTERFEIT.-There is a counterfeit
half dollar in circulation, which is COM
posed of base metal within, plated with
out, while the chink of it was so nearly
like that of genuine money, as to deceive
experts. 1t is believed that large amounts
of these halfdollars have been manufac-
tured. 1t is said that acid will not change
on them, as it used to on the ante-war
cOunterfeits, SO heavily are they plated.
