of "Rock me in the CRADLE of the deep" or
"a life on the ocean wave" or Father,
dear father, come home with me now." The
ruts are fewer than last year but have
grown in corpulence. In one OF them can
be found the remains of family of emmi-

city fathers keep the string of their purse
well closed, so do ours. They are no
fathers at all. Huntington has been nearly

are held in the churches. After good deal

Town Hall. The building he is willing
to loan can seat easily seven persons. Mr..
Willis would have been invited to give US

operations on A. J. Sage and helped them
selves without leave in the "wee sma
hours of the night to between eighty and

being estimated at about $500. They took
corn enough for several feelings, although
grass is plenty. VIII the party be kind

their cards before going away. A good
turn deserves another, A. j. Sage would
be under obligations and not ask any

Among the sick: G. Lashell, L. A.
Walker and Ida Chapman with the Group,

Miss Hattie Hicks are in q critical con-

Claren was here on consultation. Mr..
Hicks tenders his thanks to the many
persons who took an interest in his mis-
fortune, particularly TO A J. Sage Rev Mr.
Cough and Bailey for their good will in
interceeding for him in Elyria, A. j. Sage
was the author of the petition.
Our news being short let US ask a favor,
please send us one Railroad, few stores,
q couple machine shops and one shear fac
tory. Well get the rest ourselves
