remedied. He has not, so far, adver-

II was too bad foi said young ladies to
laugh: but how could they help it?

a Greentop boy named A. Dyer. Sew
eral blows were exchanged when Dyer
got Bowen down. Some of Bowen
companions attempted to interferewhich
called out re-enforcements from the
other side. One of the Queen City
crowd drew a revolver, and was in turn
struck in the back with a knife, cutting
his coat. By this time Bowen cried
enough" and Dyer was taken of. The
Queen City crowd pulled out tor home.
Bowen seemed to have been punished
pretty severely. The fuss grew ont Of
visit made church festival held at
Queen City recently which was attend
ed by some Of the young men living Ill
this vicinity. No arrests have been made
but stop should be made to such con-
duct.
Rev. Green is still holding meetings
here. We learn the meetings will be
continued several days longer. There
was very large attendance Sunday
night.
Some unknown parties were discover
ed in j. H. Hutchinson. stable about
four o'clock one morning recently. A
boy staying at Mr.. Hutchison's went
out to feed and saw them in the stable.
He returned and told Mr.. H.. who
went out with his revolver and shot at
them. Having but one chamber load
ed he returned to the house and reload
ed the revolver and gave them another
shot after which they decamped in a
hurry. They carried dark lantern
and were doubtless horse thieves.

NORMAL NOTES.

The faculty of the Normal, in orde
to give all students who are goin,
home to spend the holidays chanc
to get there before Christmas hav,
decided to dismiss on Thursday be
fore.
Pres. Baldwin has made arrange
ments with most of the railroads owe
which the students travel, for reduced
rates.
Over two hundred will travel over
some railroad, and by this reduction
it saves several hundred dollars to the
students.
Pres. Baldwin is always awake to
the interests of his pupils and when
he can do anything for their good he
is ever ready to do it.
Vacation lasts from Thursday to
Tuesday week.
The faculty think that they will get
the tuition for the remaining three
weeks after Christmas, reduced to one
dollar.
The prospect for large number Of
new students is good.
We have heard of good many
jokes being played on boarding bosses
but the last caps them all. Four mis-
chievous girls procured pair OF scis-
sors and the pants of their boarding
boss. Scissors in the hands of mis-
chievous girls don't work well. So it
didn't in this case, for they cut off the
buttons of his pants and vest. He's
a man who is not afraid of girls, and
the sequel next morning was that those
girls wished they had never seen
pair of pants. They will recollect
that failing" before breakfast. at the
hands of said man. for some time.

We have received a communication
from an old republican in Polk town
ship. which we would like TO publish
very much did it not treat of a subject
which it has been our policy to ignore
entirely in our columns We certainly
appreciate the kind words of the cor
respondent in regard to the GRAPHIC
and shall try to fully merit his contin-
ued good opinion. Write us again on
any other subject and we shall be
glad to insert it in our columns. We
love to hear from the 'old time repub-
licanS who stood up for liberty and
freedom when it was dangerous doc
trlne TO advocate.
