bic ."butter man." is again In Austin
ready to pay cash for all the butter offer.
Ed. This is his seventh consecutive sea
son In this city. All the farmers fol-
miles around know Turner, and like to
deal with him, consequently he always
gets large quantities Of butter. He: is

Dumb school continuously for fourteen
years, seven as pupil and six as teach
er, has resigned her position on account
of i'll health aud left for her home in Iowa

class she had few equals;
Miss Cramer IS bright, attractive
intelligent girl. Her parents formerly
resided in Austin.
Mrs. Ethan r. Earl, of Oakland, and
sister of the Lightly brothers, died Satur-
day evening of spinal menin gifts. She
was sick but few days, being in Austin
one week ago last Monday. The grief OF
her aged father and mother, brothers, and
four motherless children, IS heavy to bear
and the greatest consolation is in the
hope that they shall meet again. Mrs.
Earl was woman possessing many noble
qualities OF mind and heart, and was ten.
derly beloved by her family and friends.
Her burial was at Oakland Monday after
noon. Owing to the absence Of Rev. Bel.
den the funeral service was deferred until
next Sunday afternoon.
Austin, and we really are ashamed
to say it, is called an untidy city by
strangers. Papers, and old boxes, are
thrown out in the fro:t and rear of our
stores and left to blow about the streets
and vacant lots, and look unsightly and
bad. II every one would keep their own
premises in good condition, we should,
as city, present much better appear.

The body does not wait, but grows right
on from the boy to the man; it does not

Vt this fact. Are we training these dear
boys, that they may fill to the utmost their

short years will answer this, to many par.
