His perilous situation was discovered by a brakeman who immediately signalled the engineer and rendered Hillard what assistance he could. Before the train could be stopped however Hillard had fallen beneath the platform but mirac- ulously escaping the wheels. The ex- hibition not terminating as fattering as expected, Hillard immediately withdrew himself from public gaze. His narrow escape should be warming to him in more than one respect and also should serve as warning to all "smarties' who make practice of jumping on and off the trains while in motion.

interviewing Mr.. John Gray, OF
the firm o. Doak & Gray, proprietors
Of the City Meat Market, our re-
porter learned something of their
intentions that may be of interest to
Audubon people as well as those of
the surrounding country, who have
cattle for sale. Mr.. Gray is the tor
tunate posscssor of fine farm Of
$40 acres, one of the best in Melville
township, which he is now surround
ing with some 1900 cedar posts to
be ornamented with the famous
Glidden galvanized barbed wire. OF
his land 100 acres will be in tame
pasture, and upon this is to be pre-
pared for the butchers block such
stock as may not be in good order
when purchased. This will not
only assure the people the best
meat that can possibly be placed on
the market, but will be an accom-
mediation to farmers who may wish
to dispose of stock not saleable under
ordinary circumstances. A set Of
scales will be placed on the farm
permitting of direct weighing with
out the worry and trouble of driving
to town or neighborhood scales for
that purpose. The excellent plan
the new firm has adopted will find
favor in the public eye and if we
mistake not the people will evidence
their appreciation by hearty and
liberal patronage,
