When the president sailed forth

When the party started the first
deer was tied to tree about II aulr-

from the guide it was liberated. Iu-

trained TO do, it ran up in most
friendly way to the president and

The celebration at Cassyille is going
to be one of the brilliant events of the
season. The Cassville Military Band is
doing all in its power to have it pro-
nounced grand success by everybody,
and there is little doubt that Cassville will
contain more people on the fifth than it
ever contained at one time before. Ex-
tensive preparations are being made to
entertain all the visitors who may come.
and it is the intention that none shall re-
turn home disappointed. Everybody that
wants a good time should be sure and
attend the celebration at Cassville, Mon
day, July5.
Work on the c., b. & N. r. r. is rap
idly progressing and the Cassville folks
all take big interest in it. There are a
large number of bridge carpenters at
work here at present and they are push
ing the work with great rapidity. Ere
another month has elapsed there will be
trains running through our usually quiet
village, and it will help toward enliven-
ing the town.
Mr.. John Vogel, one of Cassville's
incest young men, was married last week
to Miss Jennie Acres, of Emetsburc.
Iowa, at the residence of the brides
parents. The newly married couple
came to Cassville Wednesday and will
live here. Mr.. Vogel has always been
an exemplary young man and his many
friends are rejoiced that he has procured
such an accomplished young lady for his
help-mate through life. They have the
sincere good wishes of the community.
Cassville was visited by several show
ers this last week, but it never rained
hard enough to do the ground very much
good, as our soil is so sandy that it gets
very dry. The hail storm of last We'd
nesday afternoon was of short duration.
else the crops would have suffered

lifts up and the loader part catches the
