The youthful couple have our best

The boys and girls at Oak Ridge en-
joyed the Fourth of July picnic very
much. j. d. Stratton was on hand
with large supply of the essentials to
a good time for the little folks, and all
were merry as merry could be.
Some of our citizens stood on high
ground the afternoon and evening of
the 3rd, watching the progress of ter
rible storm supposed to be on Dutch
Ridge. All could hear it distinctly.
The Boscobel Dial often speaks of the
great possessions of the Couillard Bros.
and their large farms in Dakota; but
the Dial might as well simmer, as the
Grimesy Bros. are bound to take the
lead. Their farms extend over part OF
two counties. If any man doubts this,
let him write J. w. Banding at Wah-
| peton, Dakota, and be satisfied.
Mr. w. r. Storrs and wife have gone
to Dakota to push their fortune. They
say they can make more money with
less work.

A DIsTURBANCE.-Mr. Henry Muller.
of Cassville, was brought to Lancaster
Monday, on charges preferred by one.
Lee Day, for assaulting him with a
Ratchet. Muller is the proprietor of a
small hotel in Cassville, the lower part
of which he rented on the first of July,
to Henry Stuer. of Ellenboro, for sa-
loon purposes. Things run along
smoothly until the night of the 3rd inst,
when, as a result of too much free whis-
key. the happiness of the crowd of habit
ues OF the place was prolonged until
after midnight to the annoyance OF
Muller and his wife who lived over head
and could not sleep on account of the
noise below. Muller then went down
stairs and ordered Stuer to close his sa.
loon in compliance with the law which
made it unlawful, he claimed, TO keep
open on ''the fourth" This Stuer re.
fused to do and Muller went down
again accompanied by his wife and
ordered Stuer to close up and the men
to leave, all of whom did SO except Day.
While Muller was engaged in his at.
tempt to enforce order, Day insulted
Mrs. Muller which enraged her husband
very much, who seized a Ratchet and
raised 1t to strike Day, but was inter
cepted by his wife, who received Sc
we're wound on her hand. The next
day the affair was settled as was sup
posed satisfactorily. On Monday, Day
swore out warrant for Muller's arrest
exhibiting cut in his hat and wound
on his head, which he claims Muller in
flicted with the Ratchet. Muller gave
bail and was released. The matter is
somewhat complicated, but Muller. pre-
vious to this escapade has been an up
right citizen and but for renting his
rooms for the Inefarious business of sa-
loon keeping, this little "unpleatant-
ness" would not have occurred.

golden THREAD which we have
tried our mettle" on and can honestly
say is rich fullbodied lasting chew
that does not go TO peices in the mouth
aud from its durability will prove an
actually cheaper chew than lower priced
goods. The same dealers, and also
Messrs. Jno. Schreiner and c. j. Hyde,
have stock of Catlins "MEERCHAUM"
Smoking Tobacco. "Meerschaum' is
choice graduated goods made from old
North Carolina leaf 1t does not bite
the tongue, is itch, pleasant smoke,
and is retailed at the very reasonable
price of ten cents quarter pound. Mr.
Heldcroft the agent of the company,
says that during nearly thirty years the
Catlin Tobacco Company and its i'm
mediate predecessor, Daniel Cathn, of
St. Louis, have never given alleged
gifts or prizes of any kind to force the
sale of their brands, but aim to place
the best article that can be made before
the consumer at the lowest possible
price, and trust solely to the merits of
it tor popularity. The Catlin Tobacco
Company is the largest fine cut chew
ing and smoking establishment in the
United States.
