Mr.. G. A. PRICE, agent at Bruce Sta
tion, was furnished with 25 excursion
tickets over the T. V. road to Cleveland,
and he could have sold a larger number,
as many who made application were OBJ
liged to purchase on the train. Mr.. John
S. Smith, agent at Oak Dale, sold quite a
number at that station. Owing to the
pressure on your columns, we would
only say that the excursion was very
pleasant one to all concerned. "A num-
ber of companionable, agreeable people
participated, but their names are too
numerous to specify. One of the pleas
ant incidents was the meeting with Mr..
G. A. Wilder, the former efficient agent
at Bruce Station, and his estimable wife,
who now reside at Seville, Ohio.
ORANGE BLossoMs.--The marriage of
Mr.. Alfred Mills to Miss Dandy was re-
ported as very pleasant occasion. Rev.
J. C. Conkle officiated, and a nice dinner
was served by Mr.. and Mrs. Dandy, in
honor of the newly welded pair and
their inYiIed guests. Mr.. Mills is well
known as an industrious, moral young
man, and Miss Dandy is spoken of as a
worthy and deserving young lady.
ORANGEs.-Mr. and Mrs. Luther Price
rejoice in the indisputed title to a fiji g
boy baby. They have the renewed con-
gratulations of their friends.-Mr. and
Mrs. Temple have room in their hearts
for all the babies which the Lord sends
them. The new baby is boss of that
household. Shake hands 80"
Mr. A. ]. BAGGs AND WIFE celebrated
the 5Oth anniversary of their wedding
few DAYS since. The occasion was re-
ported as very enjoyable one indeed.
The children presented their father with
a costly gold-headed cane, and their
mother with an elegant silver butter
dish lined with gold. There were also
numerous other presents including easy
chairs. The promising boy-baby of Mr..
and Mrs. Warren ]. Baggs, was also
named."J. Reynolds Baggs," in honor of
the grandfather and the occasion. A.
J. Baggs & Sons are reckoned among
the most enterprising men of the day
and their honors are honestly earned
and fully deserved.
THE NEW SCHOOL HOUSE is now
completed. 1t is neat frame building
26x36, with portico and handsome bell
fry. 1t is painted white with dark brown
trimmings and green blinds. Mr.. Rob
ert G. Henderson was the contractor for
the whole work. He employed Mr.. j.
Harris to construct the masonry and
Mr.. ]. Hawthorne to do the painting.
Mr.. Hawthore will show the public ii
sample of his skill in grainind upon the
door of the school building, and the
whole work seems creditable to all con-
cerned. The committee will inspect it
to-day.
THE death of Mr.. Henry Taylor, Sr.,
