A paper in Memphis related a case of
a beautiful young lady, the daughter
of wealthy parents, clipping with an
editor. This is as it should be. We
thought all along that young ladies
would eventually recover from the
coachman mania and aspire to the no.

ACCIDENT Last Saturday evening
an accident occurred by which John
Flynn boy aged about 10 years, broke
his arm just at the elbow. 1t appears
he jumped on to passenger car in
tending to ride up to the depot, and in
getting off, fell, with the above result.
It's to be hoped that this will prove II
warning to the many young boys who
think themselves brave in getting OH
or off a Cur while in motion. There is
nothing brave about it boys. and
sooner or later such actions result in
either loss of life or limb.
Mr.. Editor: have been using Mr..
j. Henshaw's new patent "Stump Pull
Ter" and [ am surprised at the work
capable of being performed by it.
This great power is sufficient to extract
the most obstinate stumps in this
country. Its machinery is free from
those complications which usually
render such machines Objectionable.
1t is 50 light as to be easily carried by
hand from one locality to an
other, and is SO quickly and easily
adjusted for its work as to accomplish
an incredible amount in given time.
1t possesses all the power which can
ever be required and the same time it
! is free from the cumhrous nature which
belongs to any other that | ever saw.
Its simple economy of power, and the
quick application which can be made
of it is truly wonderful.
GEO. n. DALE,
On Wednesday morning the 2lst
ult., q mare was stolen from the stable
of Mr.. J. M. Doyle. Nothing was done
in the matter for a week, when our
enterprising Deputy Sheriff, A, II.
Bonett Esq, ordered lot of bills to be
printed giving q minute description of
the animal and caused them to be
scattered broadcast Throughout the
country. On Thursday of last week a
dispatch was received from Richmond,
p. O., announcing that a mare answer
ing to the description of the one stolen,
had been at that place two days pre-
vious but had gone again. Abner at
once started in pursuit and ultimately
found the animal secreted in a barn in
the town Of st, Bridget, near Three
Rivers. Abner remained there all
night hoping that the thief would
come and get the mare, but in vain.
And as Abner was obliged to come
home he got a good description of the
supposed thief. Last Monday morning
as Abner was talking to E. G. Robinson
