LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE.

A. Sanford's father is visiting at his
sons.
School closes in Union school dis
trict this week Friday.
J. I. McCleary, Co. Supt., was in
this vicinity visiting schools last week.
Our saw mill had quite bad luck
entirely demoIishing their main belt.
The dance at Good Templars' Hall
last Friday evening was very pleas
ant affair.
We notice the return of F. Sanford
and wife. Mrs. Harris, mother of
Mrs. Sanford, has come to live with
her daughter.
One and all are invited to attend the
dance at Good Templars' Hall the night
of the ODD. First-class music and sup
per. all for 81.
AT Good Templars' Hall it was de-
cided in debate by five to one that
there was more happiness in unmar-
ried than in married life.
OAK GROVE.
The report that Mrs. Aaron Brackin
is quite feeble we are happy to say is
mistake.
B. II. Corcoran not being satisfied
with the number of scholars in his

It's a boy.
School closes in districts No. l and
2 ON Tuesday, the GATH. Mr.. Corcoran
has again been engaged 10 teach in his
district Wages $3.50 per month.
We observe by the Clifton locals that
the JOURNAL is eagerly sought for in
that town and that they are lost with
out it. We believe that correspon-
dent bespeaks for large majority OF
the reading class in Pierce county.
Thus far we have failed to see its
equal as county paper in the State.
The death of Mrs. Anna Houston was
received in this locality as though she
was near and dear relative to each
and every household. She was born in
Scotland iii 1904, and at the age of q
years pledged her hand to Mathew
Houston who is well known to a goodly
number in Pierce and st. Croix coun
ties. Living christian life, and
believer in the Presbyterian church
she was prepared to meet her fate
She was conscious to the last. She
made every arrangement in cool anc
deliberate manner TO be performed at
her burial. Rev. Jas. Corcoran was
chosen to preach her funeral sermon

valuable discovery was made by careful and
repeated analysis at many specimens during
the past season. The perce ptage oi eane-s1-
