Z from West Plains Monday, the writer Stain

Yes, and we have received two calls in tn

Of ads. in them which the parties had onl
heard some one else speak of but which the
had not seen; and by the way one of then
was the IRoNToN REGISTER. Oh no! ad

Last Friday, Miss z. Miller, who for tw,
years has had charge of the intermediate De
partment of the Ironton Public School, de
parted on No. GOA for her home, at Austin
Cass county, Mo. Miss Miller bears will
her the good wishes of all the residents o.
the Valley. She is an estimable, intelligent
young lady, and we hope her lines may ever
be cast in pleasant places. 1t is not improb-
able that she may return to again take hei
charge in the public school here, and if she
does, her return will be greeted with pleas
ure by hosts of friends who alike admire her
socially and appreciate her merits as a
teacher.

Last week the judicial mill for Reynolds
county had plenty of both civil and criminal
grist. Several pleas of guilty to misdemean-
ors were answered by fine, and one felony
was also confessed. Brushy Creek was again
heard from, and Boatwright is now accom-
panied in the penitentiary by one of his old
chums. Jacob Lee Barton seduced, under
promise of marriage, Susan Asher, his first
cousin and step-sister, and then married an
other woman. All the disgusting details
came out before the jury, who assessed his
punishment at two years in penitentiary. A
righteous judgment, only not severe enough.
Case OF klotz VS.. Perfect went to Court of
ANNALS bor hot, 4.
ties went to another county on change of
venue, as did also several cases against Mill
Spring d. Evansville Railroad. There were
many tax suits against residents, who in
most cases claim to have paid their taxes.
All OF these cases were continued. Only
sixteen ta,1yers acere present during the term.
Last Wednesday night the Ironton Cornet
Band went out and serenaded Misses Zena
Miller and May Tong. eve are the more
impelled to particularize the parties intend
ed to be compiimented, since certain con-
hrmed bachelor who happened to be in the
vicinity appeared to claim the most of it for
hImself-as though any cornet band would |
waste its sweetness on his desert air! |
Through some strange coincidence another |
gentleman was there, too, but he was not so |
lf-appropriating, and much more modest |
n his applause.) The boys played two or |
hree of their favorite selections, and then |
etired peaceably to their homes, seeking |
he slumbers of the just. This was supposed |
% be the end of an affair complimentary to
wo of the Valleys most estimable young |
aides; but it wasn't. Friday afternoon the |
aides in question brought to the REGISTER
anctum (Which is also band headquarters) |
. large cake, decorated with neat button
,ole bouquet, the which latter the "boss"
appropriated unto himself. A called meet
ne of the band that same evening was thus
made necessary and there wasn't one absen-
zee. That the cake was duly cut, parceled |
tut, and eaten, goes without saying; and |
through this paper the members of the Or
,aDization return their thanks to Misses |
Miller and Tong, wishing them good fortune
md happy marriage.
If you want to see something small Just |
AXE a look at a man who will tell you that
lis county paper is not worth the subscrip-
ion price, and who borrows it from some
honest subscriber to read every week. The
ouis of dozen such could dance a waltz
IN the point of cambria needle.-Mdlden
