My name is Woodford, said w. C.
Mills. l was born in Woodford county
this state. After the excitement Incl.
dent 10 m occasion such rs a birth the
people Logan TO bother themselves about
my name. Delegations called at the
house and wanted to know what | was
to be dubbed. As am reliably informed
n day was set for the ceremony and peo-
pie Games miles TO see me. My father
informed them that he had concluded to
call me WoodfOrd Mills. He referred to
tho solicitude of his ncighbors, and while
thanking them said he hoped the name
he had selected would DO satisfactory.
One Of the crowd got the floor and said
Woodford was all right, but he wanted
n middle name. Others followed in this
strain, and finally my father yielded.
He asked what it should be. Several
names were suggested, but non suited.
Finally one man asked:
what is the 'Woodford' for?'
My father said it was for some relative
of his. The man who had asked the
question said he thought maybe it was in
honor of the county. This suggested
that a &c" be stuck in after Woodford,
and that it stand for county. And that
is my name-Woodford County Mills.
The reason for so much commotion
about my birth and name is found in the
fact that l was the first white child born
in Woodford county.-Chicago Tribune.

There are two young men in this city
who have roomed together for some time
past, but who now don't speak as they
pass by. There never was any warm
friendship between them, their tastes and
habits being very dissimilar, but they
rocmed together for reasons of economy.
Upon taking the room it was divided into
two equal portions by drawing a chalk
line across the floor, each agreeing to
contine himself to his own half of the
ROOM. They soon got used to this and
when, in the course of time, the chalk
mark became obliterated, it was not
necessary to renew it, so accustomed had
they become to keeping within their re-
spective bounds.
All went well until one Sunday, when
n visitor called on one of the Young men.
The other one was out, and the visitor
knowing nothing about the division of
the room, seated himself in the portion
belonging to the absent man. When the
latter returned and found him there he
gruflly ordered him to goto his friends
side of the chamber. Then the fires of
hatred which had smeldered so long
broke out, and n rough-and-tumble fight
ensued between the two room mates,
with the result that they now occupy
separate apartments Washington Star.

BUFFALO, MINI May The most
dangerous fires that have ever been known
are sweeping. through Wright county for
miles. In Rockford township, about two
miles southeast of here, the fires have de-
stroyed much property in cord wood,
fences, hay, meadows, etc. One farm
house. a barn and other outbuildings,
have been consumed thus far. and others
are in great danger. On the west, three
miles away, the flames have burned for a
distance Of over five miles and are I'M
checked. At a switch two and one-half
miles from here over $500 cords of wood
were licked up. There are also fires
raging IN the woods half a mile north,
and, like the others. is spreading very
rapidly. Great excitement prevails, and
as black clouds of smoke roll up one after
another it makes the scene more terrify-
ing. Nearly every able-bodied man in
this village is out fighting the fire and do
ing his utmost to keep it from spreading,
but their efforts avail nothing, as all tie
sloughs and swamps are as dry as powder.
and instead OF furnishing a supply of
water, only add to the fury OF the flames.
The loss so far is hard to estimate, but is
more than 500. 600. The village OF But
falo is in the greatest danger, and requests
will be sent TO st. Paul and Minneapolis
for engines and firemen.

SOME WHAT MITED

There are politics and politics, SAYS the
Sundance Gazette, but the political pot IN
Weston county just at this iuncturc is n
wonderful thing to contemplate. The
Citizens ticket first gets in the field,
composed of Democrats and Republicans.
The Republican County Central commit
tee r~esolutes that it would be inadvIsa-
BILE to put a Republican ticket in the field,
but the Republicans Just the same get to-
Eether and put up a straight ticket. The
Republican editor is a candidate on the
Citizens ticket, and his paper occupies
the peculiar position of opposing his
party nominees and supporting the Citi-
zens' layout. The Democrats organize
the party and nominate a straight ticket,
but the Weston County Democrat comes
out with the Citizens ticket nailed to the
mast, and while acknowledging that the
party has put up a good, clean ticket, ia
vors the non PARTISAN flea. It's a queer
mixup and from this distance it looks as
though the muEwump layout had cAptur-

strange Case OF a Cleveland Lady.


CLEVELAND, May 5.-A year ago Mrs.
Gilbert, wife of Judge d. r. Gilbert, be
gan to exhibit signs of mental ALTERATION
which developed into a strong aversion for
her husband to whom she had previously
been strongly attached. On nearly all
other subjec's she seemed perfectly sane.
Six months ago she was placed in the
asylum at Newburg for treatment, but
had only been there a few weeks when
she escaped. Judge Gilbert employed
detectives in this and other cities without
securing a trace OF her whereabouts. Mrs.
Gilbert is a beautiful and finely educated
oma of about thirty-five years, and the
distress of her husband and friends was
great. A week age she was seen on a
street car in this city by a lady who knew
her only by sight. The clue thus obtained
was quickly followed up, and Mrs, Gil
bert was soon restored to her family, Her
friends refuse to disclose her history dur
ing the past five months, but Judge Gil
bert confirms the ru.nor of her recovery
and says her mind was fully restored and
that after needed rest she will resume her
place in society. 1t is known that after
escaping from the asylum she supported
herself by working for a publishing house.

The school meeting held Yesterday de-
cided to bond the school district for S35,

On these two important propositions 1876
citizens voted, all but twelve ~favorbly.
While THE LEADER is strongly in favor of
the improvements contemplated it at the
same time believes that when $4,000 of
the peoples money is to be voted for any
purpose it behooves the people them
selves to manifest a more lively interest in
what so intimately concerns them. Cen
cral apathy in such matters is usually the
cause of the exhorbitant taxation of which
the people complain.

AUGUSTA, GA, May 5.-Thc duel be-
tween Editor James L. Harper and Col
onel Phil Davis of Elberton, Ga, did MOI
take place as expected last night. The re-
port that Editor Harper had reconsidered
his refusal to accept Colonel Davis chal-
lenge and would meet him on the field Of
honor, is untrue. In reply to the formal
challenge which the colonel sent, Editor
Harper wrote: Your communication Of
the 2Sth inst. to hand through your
friend S. L. Carter. In reply | have
simply to say hat your conduct in the
past debars me from recognizing you in
the capacity you request" This is the
way the matter stands at present. Various
rumors are afloat as to what will be the
next move on Mr.. Davis part, as the fact
is recognized that matters cannot stop
where they are. That they will fight is
the general opinion, and a meeting in the
street, it is feared, will lead to a bloody
shooting affair.
