MILL HOME.
Yours kindly,
MRS. MARY J. ROSE.

December 7th 1878.
Simon Lehman, living in Herman,
Sheboygan Co., committed suicide on
Sunday last by jumping into the River
He had been insane for some time prevl-
Gus and twas by close watching only,
that he was prevented committing the
iced before, but on Sunday night he
managed to elude his watchers and esca-
ped to the river where he was found next
morning.
A farmer living near here, heard 50
much about the big price paid for wheat
i'll Manitowoc, that he determined to sell
his there. He made only one trip hav
ing received only a half cent per bushel
more for it there than he could get in
Kiel.
There are some deer still in Schleswig
and the little snow that fell last Sunday
night started out crowds of hunters Mon
day morning one of whom started deer
up IN the north east part of the town,
after chasing him for some time, young
Nimrod from Kiel managed to get within
shooting distance. and he did shoot. He
implied his gun and seven shooter but
iot being much of marksman the deer
vacapeed and my informant tells me he
sas mad because it did not wait until he
could come up and knock its brains out
With club. The Buck Fever saved the
,leer SO says the patient.
John Miller of Rhine while learning
lis trade in Sheboygan lost his heart.
lie tried to live way up in the Shawan o
woods without it but could not, so he came
back and yesterday it was restored to him
through the kind services of a clergyman
and last night crowd of boys interview
ed him aud he sent them to the saloon
where they imbibed sufficient to get up
q big fight among themselves. To-day
John and his bride went north again.
He is the happiest man alive. He has
most of friends, who wish him we'll and
believe there is a fortune lying some
where around for him, as the reward of
MS honesty, industry and frugality.
Another little lady boarder in the fami-
ly of Oliver Skunk and he now feels SO
big any one would think he owned gold
mine.

CONSISTENCY.

snow SO far.
The average boy is fixing up his skate
Straps.

Snowbirds have already appeared in
large numbers.
A case of diphtheria is reported in this
neighborhood.
Rabbit hunting is said to be good in
this vicinity. Two of our amateurs,
according to their own statement, bagged
seven in few hours, the other day.
We venture the assertion that John
Waegh of this town. has the largest
stock farm in the county. 1t consists of
$40 acres, all cleared. There are on the
farm 81 head of neat cattle and nearly
100 sheep, besides quite a large herd of
swine.
Hon. Chas. Tisch received by Satur-
days's boat, machine for separating
cookie and other impurities from grain.
1t is an ingenious contrivance. AND con-
sists essentially of a number of sieves
and a cylinder, in the zinc lining of
which there are numerous indentatious.
When in motion the cylinder is made to
rapidly revolve; the grain after passing
through the sleeves collects III the cylin-
der. from whence the cleansed grain
freely passes out, while the cookie re-
mains in the fluctuations.
The great social event of the season
.cas the dance at Imler's on Saturday
evening last, on the occasion OF the hosts
birthday. A large number of invited
guests assembled at an early hour III the
spacious hall, and INDUCED in dancing
and other festivities until the small hours
Of morning. The inner man was also
cared for, and the guests after partaking
of the deiicacies, botu solid and liquid,
dispersed to their homes with many
wishes that numerous returns of the
Aappy day might be granted their re-
spected host, provided it be accompanied
with the accustomed hop.
