Rev. G. Ware, rector of the, Episco-
pal church, took Bishop Whipple from
Window to Wilder on Tuesday, and
on his way back from Wilder to Win
dom his horses took fright and started
on the run. The result was a clergy
man left on the ground, and a broken
buggy.
Mr.. A. P. Miller, the founder Of the
ADVANCE, made Worthington flying
visit. on Friday, and stayed over Sun
day returning to Mime arOlis on Mon

journey to California before settling
down to hard work. which is his nat
ural element. He intends to be on
hand at the Mobiles County Fair.

preached in the Episcopal church on
Thursday evening, an instructive and
eloquent discourse on the Episcopal
church in America. A class Of cate
chumeDs-eight in number-was ad~
mitted to the church by the rite Of
confirmation. Tie scene was very i'm
p1essive, and the appropriate words of
the veteran Bishop were well apprcci.

DR.. w. S. Webb took his family in
his buggy for ride out on the prairie
on Sunday afternoon. The horse was
one recently acquired and gave the
Doctor, who is quite skilfull in driving
as well as medicine, a taste Of his
equine power. The wife and children
were scattered about promiscuously,
but not much hurt, beyond the inevi-
table fright. The buggy was very
much demoralized, and put in dock for
repairs-lf we may use nautical
phrase. The Doctor is all right for
any future trials his new horse has to
subject Linn to.
DE-. Geo. o. Moore has on his resi-

flavor, fine and juicy. Good from De-
