Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Fulmer, while return

Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Fulmer, while return
ing homo from visit to Mrs. L. G. Day, last
Friday evening, were overtaken while cross
ing coolie near the lake cast of Hope by a
shower Of rain aud heavy mist and lost their
way. After yainlg, seeking for the road for
some time, their horse. began to become un-
manageble aad they gotout Of the buggy, un-
hitched the horse and turned him loose. They
then seated themselves in the buggy and re-
mained the entire night, exposed to the heavy
rain which fell most Of the night. Mrs. Fnl
mer had her baby. only six weeks old, with
her. The morning found them only shor,
distance from Mr.. Days, which they had lef
the evening before. We have not learned thai
they suffered any evil results from their ex
posure..
Tho last number of the Portland Inter- Ocean
contains under what it calls its ''Steelc County
Department. lot of silly twaddle in regard
to Hope aud the south end Of Steele county
which is about as badly mixed as is the gram
mar and orthograpby Of the articles in ques-
ton. For the benefit Of the Inter-Ocean we
would state that the people Of Hope have not
got up an independent ticket" One gentle
man from Hope has announced himself as an
Independent candidate and there is also one
lady from Hope who is an Independent candi-
date, and there is one other Independent can-
didate from the south end, while the north end
presents two and the center one independent
candidate. So it would seem that 80 far as the
ssindpDpndant fickaf,, ia cnncarnad honoro oro
easy. All this talk about ''solid north" and
"solid south' is the veriest bosh, and should be
frowned upon by all good citizens. The PIo-
NEER is of the opinion that when the votes are
counted there will be found as much difference
Of opinion at one end as at the other. No, Mr..
1nter-O Ocean, the people Of Hope have business
enough Of their own to attend to, without de-
voting their time to getting up tickets, either
''regular' or independent"

Asleep In the Car Track.

On Tuesday night as San Pedro
springs car was coming down the
avenue, the driver noticed a man lying
on the track. He stopped the car, and
went to the man who was found di-
vested Of his coat, waistcoat, shoes, hat.
and comfortably ensconsed between the
track, fast asleep. After some difficulty,
the man was reused to state of semi
consciousness, and it was then found
that he was strongly under the influence
Of whiskey. On being asked what he
was doing there, he said, 1--WE paid for
my bed in the Central hotel and I'm
using it," and it was plain that the man
was under the impression that he was
domiciled In the hotel. The man was
eventually induced to dress himself and
take car to go to his hotel, but at the
long switch he insisted upon wslking,
and when last seen was meandering up
Tobin Hill in a northerly direction, in
search of the Central, which lay, as he
was told, in an opposite direction.

The Sunset Hose Company Mad.

The Sunset Hose company are mad, and the
cause is thusly: II was arranged that
the tiremen should turn out in the Brakemen's
procession with engines, hose carts. ETC., and
the Sunsets expended SIS and much time in
decorating their hose cart. When they got on
the ground they were informed that neither
engines nor hose carts were allowed in the
procession, and that Chief Duerler who
made the order, had notified all companies
but the Sunsets of this change. This made
their right place TO another company, they
became madden still, and declared, as
company. not to go in the procession, but out
Of respect to the Brakemen, they. as individu-
ais, took hacks and followed In the procession.
The Sunsets are mad still and propose to re-
member Mr.. Duerler when he comes before
them again for reelection as Are chief as he
did not give them fair deal.
