Frost came here about ten days ago from
Arkansas claiming that he wanted to 20
out in the country short distance to Sc
cure school for the winter. j. r.
Rogers, a book agent here who lives in
johnson county, thinking it a good OPP
portunity to increase his pocket change,
the value of 81, agreed to hire Frost his
horse. After getting the horse and rig
of Rogers, Frost left in a north direction
and on reaching Pella, six miles from
this place, he traded the horse ''for one
of his own, - receiving the difference of
Sl7 so.
From Pella, Frost went to Montague,

His trial is set for next Monday.

warm climate. Our knowledge of ladies
apparel is limited aud vague, but we
tackle the description of this with some
degree of confidence. 1t seems to consist
of one piece of calico and another piece
of calico and a string. hole is cut in
one piece through which they stick their
heads, and it then falls just below the.waist
before and behind; then the other piece
is wrapped about the waist and falls
nearly to the feet, and the string binds
the whole at the waist. The upper gar

and becomes the sport of the playful
