eight teams had passed through the first
toll gate on their way to Colombia from

good as turnpikes are generally kept.

Tours Through the y clIowstone National
parks

Messrs. Raymond Whitcomb will have only
two excursions TO the Yellowstone National
Park this season. The first party will leave Phil
adelphia Monday. July % The tour occupies
twenty-five days from the departure until
the return. and the itinerary has been arranged
to the best possible advantage. The time al
lowed for the tour through the park Is much
longer than is usually allotted by individual
tourists, and the result Is far more satisfac-
tory round Of sightseeing, together with rest
ful halts by the way. While the ordinary tour
list is rushing about with only few hours in
which to see any Of the points OF interest, the
Raymond parties are found taking their ease at
the upper Geyser Basin or the Grand Canon. In
addition to the Yellowstone Park tours, the
entcrprising firm announces fifteen July trips

Mr.. S. X. Leandon met with an accident
which hsS proved TO be painful one, on
his return from the fair at Elyria Friday
evening. He was in company with Mrs.
Laundon and only few miles on their
way. They attempted to pass vehicle,
when the other party's horses stopped sud-
denly and caused the wheels TO be locked
with Mr.. Laundon's buggy, completely
demolishing the front wheel and hurling
them to the ground, the horse running a
short distance and stopping. Mr.. Laundon
says it was all done in an instant, and he is
unable to tell how he was injured. The in
juries consist OF dislocated shoulder and
a few other slight bruises which, with
care, he is likely to be about in few
days. Mrs. Laundon escaped uninjured.
On Thursday of last week we went over
to Elyria. The forenoon was devoted to
calling on the officials Of the county and
members of the press which we found to
be very pleasant anu courteous gentlemen
to meet. The afteroon was devoted to
attending the fair. 1t being the "big day"
an unusual large attendance was there.
There was large display of machinery
and agricultural implements, the floral
hall was tastefully decorated and well
filed with all classes Of fine goods. The

the burden of the products Of the bounti-
full harvest. The poultry show was excel
