It is about time that some steps were
taken to abate disgraceful, outrageous
nuisance, which seems to be growing in
proportions. We mean the of late regu-
lar Sunday disturbances, which are blot

fellows, who usually 60 on spree Satur.

day morning. In their carousals they
are frequently joined by young men who
are permanent residents here, and be-
tween them frequent rows are>the result.
On last Saturday evening regular
Arkansas free fight took place in the
"corner saloon," and next day bruised
heads were numerous. On Sunday even
ing about 1880 o'clock a sidewalk fight
took place in front of the same place,
and several broken heads were added to
the number. These rows create noise
and uproar that is damnable in the ex>
treme. Another feature, even worse
than the above, IS a habit lot OF these
fellows have of standing on the street
corners in crowds, on Saturday evening
and Sunday afternoon and evening, using
loud, vulgar, profane and frequently OBJ
scene language as ladies pass BY. This is
not an overdrawn picture-it falls short,

be on fire, but by promptly applying a

GOred by a Bull.

NAVW- Iu0 t'AoIUuEu COuuty EtdTs
On Saturday morning last news reached this
village that Hon. G. H. Chadbourne, of the
town Of Baldwin, this county, had been gored
by his blooded bull, and was not expected to
live. The particulars of the frigbtful accident
as we learn them second hand from Mr..
Chadbourne's own lips, are as follows: The
bull is thoroughbred animal, and at
times very feroeious. His stall is next to the
side of the barn, and he had knocked a hole
in the side. say two or three feet square. The
animal was fastened by one rope leading from
a ring in his nose to a beam beyond the man
ger, and another rope around his neck to the
aeor.. This latter rope became loose, and on
Friday evening last, Mr.. Chadbourne entered
the stall on the left side of the bull for. the
purpose of tightening the rope. As he ap-
preached the bulls head and was about to un-
fasten it, the animal stepped back, as far as
the rope would let him, and quick as flash
lowered his head and made Iunge at Mr.. c.,
catching him on the point of his horn, which
is almost as, sharp as a sword. The horn
broke two of the unfortunate mans ribs and
entered his lung. Mr.. c. was placed in such
position that he could scarcely move, but in
some way, the exact particulars of which are
immaterial, he managed to get his head
pointed to the hole in the side of the barn be-
fore spoken of, AMI as the bull made ano Their
lunge, he exerted all his strength and pulled
himself off the beasts horn and through the
hole in the arm, where he was found by men,
bers of the family.
Of course physicians were at once sum-
moned from Elk River and Princeton, but
about all they could do for the sufferer
was to press out the broken ribs from the
lung and sew up the wound. The horn went
into his side all of six inches, nd although it
is not necessarily fatal wound, the chances
for his recovery at this writing are not con-
sidered very good. But he is q strong, heal thy
man, of good habits, and his friends are hope
full that he may come out all right.

hundred acres of mixed wheat and oats this
spring. On the greater portion Of his land he
mixed his seed in the proportion Of three
pecks of oats to five peoks Of wheat to the

wheat and half oats. This is the fourth sea-

suits in previous seasons have been highly
satisfactory,a full crop Of wheat and a large
amount Of oats having been secured. One
year Mr.. Mooers' wheat that stood alone was
almost entirely destroyed by drouth, while his
wheat that stood with oats yielded we'll. He
explains that the roots of the wheat extend
downward, while the roots Of the oats spread

From the Cincinnati Emo airer.
In the line of stupidity: nothing approaches
the performance of the new editor of the new
paper who writes column or two of saluta-
tory, principally devoted to apology for his
enterprise. The new ed ltor usually makes
splendid exhibition of mo lesty !; he disparages
himself, and appeals to his readers for forbear-
ance. He feels that he san afford to do this.
He is confident that the ablic is already PEN
etrating his modest habit ments, and discover
ing in him man of proc igious intellect and
unparalleled capacity for business. But fire.
quently the people take him at his word.
That is why there are so many wrecks on the
stormy coast of journals, o..
