along College street, in Arcadia, his horse
became frightened and ran, oyerturning the
vehicle and throwing the driver with great
force to the ground. Mr.. 4. fell on his
face, breaking his nose, and cutting his
tongue almost through. He was also bruiz-
ed and otherwise injured about his face and
arms-in fact, was so badly used up that he
had to be taken home in care of a friend.
| The doctor, however, says he is now doing
very well, and will come out all right. The
buggy was damaged considerably, but the
horse was not injured.
Arbor Day is not very far off, and we learn
| with pleasure when it comes it will be OBJ
served by the schools hereabouts. The
trees put ont last year by the scholars OF
the Ironton public school are doing well,
but very few having succumbed to the ills
incident to removal and change of cOndi-
tions. These latter will he replaced by new
ones, and number of vacant places on the
| grounds filled in. The slight expense of a
team and wagon for transporting the trees
we have no doubt will be willingly paid for
by the board Of directors out of the public
funds. 1t will assuredly be placing the
money "where it will do the most good" in
the better meaning of the phrase.
| II. VI. Collins. the livery man, came home
last week, after an absence of nearly
month, horse trading, in St. Louis. He dis
posed of all the stock he took up-tfteen
| head-at good figures, and then bought
| others, which he brought home with him.
He bough: some trotting stock, which he
had shipped, by rail, and they will probably
be down to- day. He says no more "oyer-
| land" business for him-hereafter he will
ship by car, il he has only two head to dis
pose Of 1t takes about three days, ut fair
| travel, to reach ST. Louis on foot, and when
you get them there your horses are no good
| for several days. 1t is cheaper and better
| in every way to 60 by rail-a5 well for beast
| as for man.
| Some person stole horse, saddle and bri-
| die from Mr.. ii. y. Hutchin,' farm last
Thursday night. Up to this writing. no clue
to the thief has been obtained, nor has the
missing horse been heard from. Whether
| the thief went north, south, east, or west, is
as yet problem, and we have not been ad-
| yi>ed as to what steps, if any, have been
| taken toward his apprehension or the re-
covery of the stolen property. The horse is
described as follows: A medium-sized bay,
about ID hands high; IA years old; bare
footed, except one or two shoes on his fore
feet; has the heaves, which becomes appar-
ent when he is much driven or worked.
The distinguishing feature, however, is
teat or projection of bone, about one and
half inches long on the under part OF bis
jaw. A suitable reward will be paid for his
recovery and the arrest of the thief.
Every day the people are experiencing
more and more the effect of the "annamak-
ering of the L. S. mail service. On Sunday,
| the 10th, there was mailed at Piedmont to
this paper, important matter. for publlca-
| ton in this issue. The sender inform, us
that he saw it 90 on the mail car. 1t reach
ed the post office at this place day, the
18th, at p. M, from the south. On the
| same day i letter was mailed at Annapolls
| for 4 gentleman living here: the letter got
| here to-day. Again, gentleman at Pied
mont has written 90 party in lronton every
day for ten days, and only fouv of the COM
municatiOns are yet at hand, and they from
| three to five days late. This may be for
| the good of the service" as a gentleman who
has experienced these inconvenences said
to Us, but, We'll be drotted If We can see
| it,"
| One day last weeI Ir, John Glassmann,
| jeweler at MiddehroOk, took zap III his
shop. This, we learn, is not an unusual
thing for Mr. q. to do, especially aftera full
and satisfying dinner; yet his experience on
| this occasion was out of the ordinary. While
he slept sweetly the sleep of the innocent
| aud Just. behold an intruder came and went,
and went not exactly as he came, for he bore
off with him watch which lie had extract
ed from the vest pocket Of the siuu.berlng
| jeweler. When Mr.. q. awoke, he naturally
sought his me-pece, to learn how fast the
| hours had flown by while Morpheus held
him in his arms, but behold again. the watch
L ad also flown. The slumberer was wide
awake Instantly, and he started on tour
of inquiry. Result; John Bearer arrested,
brought down to Pilot Knot, tried before
Justice Schwaner, and given twenty days in
| Jail. And the watch rcposes again in the
vest-pocket of its lawful owner. But he
| locks his door, now, before taking his siesta.

| About two years ago Charles Brei,enstGi9,
| of Ironton, removed. with his family wife
and two children TO Montana. Some time
| after, the wife sued for divorce, which few
weeks ago was awarded her, together with
her prayer for the custody of the children.
In the meantime, ,Ehile the qustion of divorce
was being considered by the court, Breiten
stein came back to Ironton, bringing the
