That gray steed owned by PROF. Randall
is regular old standby for the reporter,
and yet he was never known to stand by
anything for three seconds unless chained
and curbed. On Monday he plunged
around this corner,-with one or two
grangers yelling III his waLe-on keen
jump, saddled but minus bride, and for
a moment the reporters mind was busy
conjuring up startling headlines for the
accident" which lie felt sure was await
ing record. The alarm Was quickly dis
PEELED, however, as it was ascertained that
the horse had broken away from hitch
ing post, and there had been no undue
spread in the educational line-the profes'
sor being at his own post. That head
strong and untamable steed will plove a
bonanza for the local paragrapher some
of these line DAYS

DruUO0'S addition,

The tract or parcel of land recently
plated and added to our townsite by Mr..
VIM. Dragoo is evidently looked upon as
a desirable location, for, although only
plated about a week or so ago, yet several
lots have already been disposed of. The
location is very desirable, especially so
for those DESTROYS of being outside the
business centre of the village, and men of
limited means who wish to have homes of
their own will find this favorable loca-
ton, the situation being favorable and
convenient, the lots large, 50x1OO, and the
price and terms Of sale extremely reason
able. Now is the time for investment, as
when the rush comes this rs we'll as all
other real estate will be greatly advanced.

On Friday evening last the Ladies' Aid
society of the Episcopal church entertained
their friends at Brisbine's hall, where
something new and novel in the line of in
novations was made from the usual stereo-
typed church sociable. The programme
for the evening commenced witt a dra-
matte performance; the play, "rhe Ouch
ess of Dublin" being presented by our
amateurs in a very acceptable manner;
and while the limited time for preparation.
prevented some of the cast from appearing
at their best, yet all things considered, the
piece was put on in a manner fully equal
to any previous efforts by our dramatic
talent. The several characters were all
well interpreted, and in the main well sus-
tanned, and hence individual mention is
not necessary. After the fall of the cur
tain lunch was served by the ladies, and

between Watson s. Leonard's White Stock

The suit brought by the state against
John T. Calvin, Michael Calvin, jr., and
w. M. Lyons, in which the St. P, NJ. Il
NJ. railroad company was the complaining
witness. has resulted, somewhat surpris-
ingly, in the parties against whom the
complaint was made being bound over to
appear before the grand jury ut the next
term of district court, the former in the sum
of 81, 600, the two latt $500 each. The
general impression was that the prisoners
would be readily cleared; but the tcsti-
mony, which was very voluminous, the
case occupying several days, was also very
conflicting, both the prosecution and de-
Tense making out strong cases. After the
case had been submitted to Justice Hutch.
ms, before whom tie examination was
had, and before any decision was reached,
matters took sensational turn. Intense
feeling was aroused from the first, yet as a
general rule public sympathy was with the
defendants; but there has been some things
done that has changed public opinion, and
created feeling that improper influences
| were at work Firstit was claimed that
the principal witness Cor the prosecution
had been threatened, and an effort made to
have him get out of the way; next it is as
serted that an effort was made 10 intimdate
Detective Cleveland and Mr.. Spooner;
and lastly was the episode of yesterday,
when deliberate attempt was made to
bribe Justice Hutchins. The facts of the
case are these: A man named eastman,
who is either grcenhorn, or one of the
great family of cranks, deliberately walked
into tile Justices Office and handed him q
letter containing 800. A note accompa
nying the money, having Casllman's name
attached, stated that OH condition of his
/ (TIutchins) dismissing The case, the money
would be his. OF course the justice
promptly arrested tho cheeky young man
and put him forthwith in charge of an Of

yesterday afternoon for examination; bu
this he waived, aud was bound over ii
