Detective John T. Norris was met on the

that f. o. Kershner was in the city and at
liberty, having accompanied him here volun-
tsrily and without process. 1t is now given
out that the alleged forgery cases are in a
far way OF being settled to the satisfaction OF
whom it may concern that there will be no
prosecution and that the whole thing was a
"mistake." Ore of the parties holding a
note says that there is something queer abou,
the whole affair, and that the sign ,tures,
some OF them at least, alleged to be forgeries,
are in reali genuine.

an exciting incident occurred just as the
train entered South Charleston. A little child
was playing upon the track wholly uncoa-
scious OF its danger as the train came thun-

the child when nearly upon it, took in the
situation, reversed his engine, and applied the
air brakes and succeeded in bringing bis

few feet of the little one.
As soon as the train stopped, Joe Lerch, the
fireman, jumped from the engine, jerked the
little fellow up, and delivered him uninjured
to his mother, who saw the danger to which

more. did not raise any wheat but those
who planted il had an excellent crop. The

acre. Il will weigh over standard weight.
The only old ground oats that
have been yhreshed measured Is bushels. These
oats | send we're down pretty badly and some
what colored. Mr.. Bennett saw the ground
where these vegetables were raised. The
onion | sen. grew from the seed and not from
the set. They were sown close together. We
planted the seed to raise sets, and the result
is one hundred bushels of the finest onions
ever saw. Our Johnson grass we have mown
twice this year.
There is no finer new country than this,
and We have several Ohio families, and hope
your colony will decide to locate here.
