The old room which formerly was
known as Grand Army Hall, but Of
late years as Waverly Hall, has
again been changed, having been
fitted up as lodge room for all the
different orders which met in Odd
Fellows Hall, except the /. 0. 0. F.,
which will have exclusive use of their
old hall. The change makes the
boys of the G.. A. r., X. of H., X. OF
p, N. u, J. 0. U. A. M. and other
orders all happy as the room is by
far the incest in town.
GEORGE M. McELRoY, employed
by N. Vandervort on his farm neal
town. borrowed a hammer from
James Dawson while the owner was
not looking and not only forgot hav-
ing borrowed it but forgot where il
came from and so sold it to Chas
Martin. Dawson had him arrested
Monday and Georges recollection OF
the incident became clear very sud
denly and being requested to put up
at the cooler till court agreed to pay
the costs and procure the hammer
from Martin if the thing would be
let drop right there, which Dawson
agreed to do. George stuck to his
bargain and the hammer has been
returned
Miss Cora DoNLEY is an equestri-
enne of more than average grace and
skill, but far above the average in
pluck. Friday afternoon she was
cantering at lively gait down
Spruce street and when near the
Academy her horse became fright
ened and succeeded in throwing hel
violently to the ground, the horse
then indulging in runaway. Gene
Warren caught the horse and led il
back to where the young lady was
and insisted that she not again
mount, but the resolute and clever
horsewoman was not at all daunted
by the mishap and at once mounted
again and proceeded to give hel
horse lesson that he probably will
not soon forget and will not soon
again try his antics when managed
by the fair hands of Miss Cora.
