The Iola register., 1889-11-15

Mr.. E. w. Carver, of Cott .e Grove
called on US last Saturday Ia say that
he had been misquoted In q e matte
OF the speech in Scotland J Mge F
M. B. A., referred to in the / EGIsTEE
last week. Instead of ssyir', as wal
reported to US, that Mr.. Lii isoy had
promised him to serve as COT ty clerk
If elected, for 5000 year, what he did
say was this: "In talking With Mr.,
Lindsay asked him il hc did not
think county salaries were too high.
He replied that he did and added that
he would rather have q steady Job in
the county clerks Office at Sc 70 a year
than to teach school part the year for
$40 month";" 1t will be seen that
this is a very different thing from
the report brought to Us. And while
we have no doubt that our informant
acted in entire good faith, yet it was
evidently q misunderstanding on his
part,-a misunderstanding which the
REGISTER exceedingly regrets and
which il embraces the first opportun-
ity to correct.
We did not mean to say in our re-
marks to delinquent subscribers two
weeks ago, that we would send bills to
all who were in arrears for whatever
sum. We have only sent notices to
those who were behind in the cum of
$500 or more. No bills were rendered
to such as owe US less than $500, not
because we have any serious objection
to receiving money from those who are
indebted but q small sum, but because
it would have taken too much time
and trouble to make out host of lit
tie statements. This explanation is
made SO that those who do not receive
may not jump to the con
clusion that some kind friend has paid
their bill.
They teach ply siology and anatomy
over at the High School. and a couple
of our small boy acquaintances are
very much interested in the subject.
The other day they were sent out to
kill q chicken and after the decapita.
ton had been duly performed the fol-
lowing colloquy ensued:
Fret small boy: "Let's desuck this
chickens head and find its windpipe."
Second 9. b., with fine scOrn),
'"Desuck'! Don't you know scarcely
anything? I'll insect it for you If you
want me to-"

When a heavy animal gets one of
Is legs broken it is commonly counted |
q gOod-or as bad-as dead. Mr..
Daniel Klink tells US, however, that
le saved his Polled Angus bull, which |
'rOke one of its fore legs last spring, by
imply getting heavy leather band
t the harness shop ard buckling it
lightly around the fractured limb. He
eft it on for three months and the
one knitted SO perfectly that the
ninlal does not limb, nor show any
igns of the accident.
The scheme for the competitive drill
