A young Lee district chap came home
from Decatur dance the other morning,
rather early, with rather more ''sheep Dip
than he was able TO carry in good shape.
The first thing he tried to do, after getting
home, was TO knock a hole through the town
with his head. Failing in that, he accounts
for the bruises on his proboscis, by saying
that Gene Salisbury put them there while he
the l.. d. c. was suffering from discourage
ment.
A couple of bucolic gentlemen living in
the southwest part of the town, are having a
law suit about four pigs that they each claim
to have raised. The case promises to be an
interesting one. Each party is represented
by eminent counsel, and while one party will
endeavor to prove that he reared and raised
tho little rooters from their infancy, the
other will show that he too has been their
godfather, from the day they were born into
the world till they were torn from his fond
embrace by the strong arm of the law.

detail of the entertainment. AT the M. +.
Church, on Monday evening, the entertain
ment passed very pleasantly. The exercises
were the best we ever saw in that church,
and we never saw the church trimmed so
tastefully. The little ones, under the man.
agement of Miss Ida Hurlbut, gave an en-
tertainment worth three times the price OF
admission. The house was crowded to Its
utmost capacity. Certainly the Day Spring

of the exercises was we'll conducted by G.. M
