A good many of our sportsmen
probably through ignorance OF the
law are violating the game law. by
the laws of 1888, now in force, prairie
chickens can only be shot between
Sept. l and January 1. Sportsmen will
, do well to remember and observe this
We are sorry to be under the neces-
sity of explaining the Salad jokes, but
really the girls shoot too high for the
ordinary run of us. For instance did
they ever expect any common mortal
to translate "superlatiyely undeistical
embrace" into "most ungodly hug?'
Mr.. G.. G.. Clark was very agreeably
surprised on Tuesday by the arrival OF
his only son, Mr.. F. T. Clark, from
Rockford, Ill. Mr.. Clark comes only

and may locate here il a fitting oppor.

At the annual school meeting last
Thursday afternoon, II. l.. Henderson
was reelected treasurer; an eight
months school was voted, to begin not
later than October 1, and tax of ten
mills for teachers wages and five

most harmony prevailed.
| Friend Smith, of the Inter State, in
formed us last Saturday that there
would be nodemocraticc county conven-
ton this fall. He thinks however that
there will be an Opposition" conven-
ton about the 9th of September. 1t is
new name but we imagine there will
be about the same old crowd.
The Salad came out last Saturday,
enlarged i'm size and greatly improved
in quantity and quality Of contents.
Those who have already subscribed
are well pleased with their investment
and those who want to subscribe now
can do SO just as cheaply as if
they had begun with the first number.
Mrs. Mat. Fields recei> ed on Satur-
day, the sad news that her brother
living at Harrodsburg, Ind, while out
hunting with Ralph Mcdowell, had
been accidentally shot and killed by a
pistol i'm the hands of the latter. Mr..
and Mrs. Fields started east on the
Saturday night train.
Invitations were out for quite a large
party of our young folks at the resi-
dence of Mrs. w. w. Andersons last
night, but we went to press too early
to rep ,rt it. The young young ladies
were engineering the thing however,
and with Mrs. Anderson's help We are
verysure that the affair..was an entire
| success.
We are getting tired of these false
alarms. This time it is Hendricks, and
it turns out that there is only one of
| him after all. Some of these attempts
mast be made to stick, or the ice will
get SO thick it can't be broken. Can't
the Salad do something about it? We
understand it is the organ of the will
ing young ladies.
The bountiful rains of the last three
weeks have brought the corn crop of
this county into splendid condition
and it is now SO well advanced that it
cannot be seriously injured by any
drouth that may yet come upon US.
In short, the crop is entirely made,
and will be fully up to, If not exceed
ing, our usual average.
Mrs. Mark Troll, of Sullivan Ind,
is here for quite an extended visit
with her cousins the Steele boys, at
this place and Moran. She is very
much pleased with Kansas and thinks

leaving here, she will go to Mexico to
visit her mother and sister.
Prof. w. S. Carver, who has organ
lied an afternoon and evening writing
class at the school house, comes with
unusually good recommendations and
we have no doubt that he will give
entire satisfaction. Specimens OF his
art work, displayed at Goodhue 4 Ev-
ans and at the Post Office, are among
the finest we have ever seen.
