Hosea Willis, west of here, lost two of his

A poor place for fingers.
Hogs have been been shipped from here
during the past week at $500, an advance of
half cent from former prices.
The basket factory has closed. 1t is un
certain whether it will open again or not
Lack of orders, we believe, was the cause.
There has been quite scare in the vicinity
of Bloomingdale, on account of two cases of
diphtheria, one of which, that of Miss Laura
Shaffer, proved fatal.
Mat. Brown moved one load of goods from
his farm to this place, intending to work
here this winter, but being unable to
obtain work, he moved back.
The play of the "Emigrant's Daughter"
by the band boys, was well attended. The
proceeds were about $40. The popularity of
this play will necessitate its be ing reacted
in the near future.
Clark Beardslee returned last week, from
his farm-hunting tour in Missouri, and thinks
he will live and die in Michigan. His wife
has also returned from her visit to Marcellus,
and uncle George is happy. No more cold
victusls.

If the editor of the Herald would get his
items as straight az the correspondent of the
NoRTHERNER there would be fewer correc-
tons necessary in his columns. Next time
you fling at rs, Ed, get the correct thing,
then hit hard. We will take IL kindly.
Clark has been running his mill, during
| the past week on the old style, to accommodate

delay with the firm that furnished his ma.
| chinery, and now he has been waiting week
| for the rollers which the firm says have been
shipped. 1t has been great expense and
annoyance to Mr.. Clark, as well as the public.
Farmers should appreciate the effort he is
making to give them the best of -four, instead
of finding fault because they can't get their
grinding done. Have patience, and when he
gets started help him all you can.
Editor Lockhsrd snuffed the Electric
Light last week, leaving Gobleville in dark
ness again. The combined papers came out
under the head of Gobleville Herald, and, if
it is sample of the future paper, we beg to
be excused from attempting to decipher it.
We don't think Editor See has done the fair
thing, after arousing the expectation of the
public to such pitch, and elevating the
morals of this section, to say nothing of the
new-fangled spelling with which the people
have labored during the past summer, TO let
the town drop back into darkness again. II
is too bad. We can See no help, unless
Lockhard retains him on his staff. Please
do, Ed.
