THE PROPOSED FIGURING MILL.
A Very Liberal Offer from q Leading
Pacific Coast Firm.


One Of the San Francisco agents of
the TINES writes: 81 have jus: left
the office OF Wagner 4 Co., manufac-
turers OF Touring mills and mill ma
chinery. The firm is rated at $4,000
900, and makes the most Improved
roller mills. While was there saw
the employees busy boxing and other
wise preparing six mills for shipment
to Australia by the next steamer.
This firm has an Al standing in ev-
cry respect, and sends its own men
with its mills to put them up and start
them. They warrant all their work,
and although they require a guaran-
tee, expect no money until the mill is
accepted. If satisfactory under
standing is reached, one of the firm
will visit HALEY at once to conclude
the bargain.
Parties contemplating the construc-
ton and operation of Touring mills in
this section would doubtless find it to
their advantage to communicate with
Wagner & Co. The above is there
fore published for their special benefit.
Since the above has been in type,
the following has been received:

Farmers are busy with their work,
plowing and planting corn.
The outlook for the wheat crop Is
more encouraging now than q few
weeks ago.
1t is now reported that the idea OF
moving the mill from this place to
Beaver Dam has been abandoned.
In glancing over the columns Of the
ever-welcome messenger, the HERALD,
| see call on Mr.. +. c. Hubbard, re-
questing him to announce himself as a
candidate for the Office of State Senator.
His party could not find more worthy
man, a better qualified man, nor man
that would make livelier race, than
Mr.. Hubbard. Should he not announce,
the ROckpOrt convention could not do
surer work than to give him the nomi-
nation.
II the Republicans Of the county
intend having u candidate for the Leg
islature. Mr.. David Duncan 10, accord
ing to our Judgment, rs good a one rs
they could choose. He is not only a
gentleman, but is well qualified for the
office besides, it would take as swift IA
Democrat to Outrun him as it would
any other man his party could nomi-
nate.

of the district have purchased lime

obtained to take the place of the little
sheep-bell that has so long and 50 faith
fully done its duty. l guess, when the
teacher and pupils find themselves in
possession of white-washed school
house and a new bell, they will begin
to think they are some pumpkins.

We spent good part of last Satur

orally called, lives on the south side o
Green river u short distance from Liv-

Knobs. These knobs are not far apart
are of considerable height, have nc
connection with each other or any
other hills, ridges or mountains, are
surrounded by the Green river bottoms,
are quite steep and some distance above
the level Of the bottoms; huge cliffs OF
rock project out with occasional open
ings leading INTO great caves. These
caverns are the winter quarters and
permanent homes of legions of rattle
snakes. Rattlesnake Jack has such q
good natured, good for nothing look
about him that the snakes refuse to
recognize him as the 'seed of woman
and seem to have no fear that he will
"bruise their heads, aud regard him
as harmless and hence disdain to send
their poisonous fangs into his plebeian
flesh.
Rattlesnake Jack has studied Suake-
ology, looks after their welfare and
traffics in them. He plays with them,
handles them ut will, puts lines around
their necks and leads or drives them
about at pleasure. He brought one
with him Ia Livermore last Saturday
that had eleven rattles as caudal ap.
pendage. He had it in a rude board
box and a small string around its neck.
He handled it just as he pleased and
finally sold it to Mr.. Dave Tucker for
$3.50, but before closing the trade he
assumed the role of snake dentist and
extracted its fangs with u pair of pin
GERS. These fangs have the appearance
of a small cats claw and are hollow.
This was the sixth one he has captured
this spring
He says the great-great grand daddy
Of all the rattlesnakes In the Green
river world lives on Bates Knob, ID
about twenty feet long, has body n
thick as an ordinary man and makes
music with about forty rattles. He
says he is holding this king of snakes
back for bid from some museum OF
circus, and expects to reap big bonsn-
"a out Of his capture and sale.
He kills off all the weakly, slender,
spiteful snakes, and allows none but
the healthy, more amiable ones to null
tiply and replenish Bates and Beeler's
Knobs with snakes, He says 1t is no
uncommon thing 10 see fifty at time
out on the table rocks on these knobs
summing themselves, on a warm spring
day.
We refer you to s. w. Rowan, Lee
Whitaker, q. F. Gillim, Hugh Field
and all other prominent citizens and
business men of Livermore, who will
not only assure you that the foregoing
is no "MuIhattan" vision, but a reality
which they will verify by affidsvits.

Editor Herald:
We have q very pious and business
little town, consisting of people Of most
all denominations and all kinds of bus
iness. Beech Grove has only been q
town about ten or twelve years, and
has about 800 inhabitants and Is still
improving rapidly. We think that
does very well for town not situated
on any river or railroad. 1t is about
one and q half miles from the river.
Quite q number of the citizens are
improving their dwelling and business
houses.
Mr.. w. A. Clark is putting up large
livery stable. He expects to supply II
with good horses and buggies, and
keep II In first-class order. Bill has
many friends and will do q good busi-
ness.
Mr.. N. q. Ashby had . barge-load OF
coal to sink just above the Wrightsburg
landing not long since, which caused
his mill to stop grinding and disap-
point his customers generally. Though,
the people ought to be more considerate
in the case, for Mr.. Ashby has used
every effort to get coal before he got
out. When his barge sank, he sent an
order 10 Spottsville Immediately, but
before they got that barge loaded, the
miners struck and brought things to \
stand-still again; 50 he didn't get his
coal till yesterday. Mr.. Ashby is one
of Beech Groves leading merchants.
He has recently added to his store u
millinery department, i'm charge Of
Mrs. Birdie Brown, of Owensboro. She
Is well recommended as q milliner,
having worked at the trade about five
years.
We think there will be q wedding in
town soon, as Mr.. "Yesrod" has bis
new house nearly completed.
Mr.. Rosenburg and his charming
little wife, nee Miss Minnie Schrader.
of Evansville, Ind, were visiting their
