Fork, 18th DESTRUCTION Sabbath last, the
M. E. Church at this place took up collection
for the Charleston sufferers. The congregation
was not large, but responded literally, $3.50
being the amount received on subscription. An
effort will be made to increase the amount. One
gentleman present remarked that he would have
doubled his subscription had DIR. Shaw won the
day, instead of Mr.. Talbot. He having heard
the evening previous that Talbot the success
full candidate. As it has been decided in favor of
Shaw, we expect him to fulfill his promise, as he
is o man of his word. Considerable feeling has
been manifested in this district over the political
contest. We hope no ill feeling has been engen-
dered. INCoG.

That Remarkable Taylor Family.

DUtttHtUTH ZlHVETTCt
The more one hears of the Taylor family of Ten
nessee, the more unique and original does it be-
come. Bob Taylor is the Democratic nominee for
Governor. Alf Taylor is the Republican nominee
for the same office. 1t is said that the father of
the two boys will become the Prohibition nominee.
And that is not all. There are four other broth
ers with politics of their own, and not one of them
agrees with either Bob or Alfor the father. And,
worst of all, the mother is woman suffragist.-
And, yet this remarkable family manages to live
together in peace and happiness; and when Alf
was introduced in joint debate by Bob the other
day, he cleverly remarked that after the election
Bob would have the distinguished honor of being
the brother of the governor of Tennessee.

Warren, 9th District.-The Sunday school
which has been held at this church for many years
and known as the Warren Union Sunday school,
as such has no longer an existence. Lack of har-
mony and concord has caused division, the M.
P. adherents having withdrawn to Poplar Meeting
House, where they have organized a school which
now numbers some seventy scholars The officers
are Mr.. Joshua Cain, superintendent Mr.. Irwin
Cain, secretary, and Miss Annie Cain, organist.-
new constitution has been formed for the parent
school and is now known as the M. E. Sunday
school, which will conduct its sessions regularly as
heretofore notwithstanding the diminution occa-
stoned by the separation.
After the long drought which has prevented the
pillow from forcing its way through he ground pre-
paratory to fall seeding, the welcome and abun-
dant rain of last Sunday evening has given free
dom of action whereby the farmer can push for
ward his work once more with unlimited pleasure
Corn, which bid fair for an average crop, has been
much retarded by want of rain when much
quired, August being the month for making the
crop but having continued quantity and quality
will be much reduced
The factory is still making good time with work
for all who are attentive and industrious. 1t will
probably so continue unless deemed necessary to
shut down for repairs.
The health of the village is good, but little sick
ness prevailing at the present time. U.

A Double Runaway.-Mr. Joshua NJ. Mat
thews, we'll known Dulany's Valley farmer, had
quite lively experience on Saturday morning
last while on his way to Baltimore with lot Of
butter and eggs. Just as he reached the top of
Reis's hill, about mile below Towsontown, he
saw pony, attached to q cart in which were
seated two little girls, coming towards him in a
full run, the driver using her best endeavors to
check him. Mr.. Matthews took in he situa-
ton in an instant and turned his team across the
pike so as to stop the runaway. He succeeded in
running the pony into the fence and left his team
to assist the children, when his own horse turned
short in the road and ran down the hill to Ger
mans hotel at the top of his speed. In turning
in to the hotel he struck another wagon, upsetting
the one to which he was attached and breaking it
slightly. But the butter and eggs Jared the worst.
Not whole egg was left and the butter presented
an appearance that made one tired to look at it.
The horse was stopped at Germans, after getting
clear out of the harness, but no further damage
was done. The pony team belonged to Mr.. D. Ii.
Rice, who owns the Ewing farm at Cowpens, and
the little girls were his children, who fortunately
escaped without airy serious injuries. portion
of the harness had broken, which frightened the
pony and caused him to runaway. Mr.. Matthews
has the satisfaction OF knowing that he prevented
what might have been a serious accident, even if
he did get his butter and eggs knocked into
smithereens.

All goods must be made in the year 1856, or no

Our Usage friend also wants to
know what Dakota will do about
competing. 1t won't do anything,
that's all there is of it. Dakota is a
great country, and all that, and pro-

when Dakota goes into anything she
wants a fair show for her money, and
not be handicapped as she would be
to compete in the Usage baby show.
Let the Usage fair Association give
Dakota a notice of its baby exhibit

a Monkey-parrot Time Mt Castal,a.

A novel aud amusing suit occupied
the attenlon Of two justices and five
attorneys for two days last week at
Castalia. It seems that sometime
since a man by the name Of Z. A.
Conner agreed for 80 to locate two
spots upon the farm of VIM. Fowle
where water could be found. Fowle,
who is an old Englishman, had pre-
viously dug several wells and been
unsuccessful in finding water. Con-
ner by the aid Of the "water witch"
located the spots and told Fowle he
could get water by digging l6 feet.
The latter dug both wells but found
no water, and sued Conner for dam
ages for time spent, as well as dam
ages for being made a damphool of
among his neighbors. Conner had
refunded the 81 paid him. Fowle
lost his case. James Brown and A.
S. Stuver of kimball, were attorneys
for the defendant, and Lucas, Mckay
and iloppaugh, of Castalia, for the
plaintiff. The trial made no end Of
fun.
