(By Jay.)
This is 'Ronick," Old Nimrod,
We left him ''lay upon" the sod.
He was a man of mind and will
And never thought himself he'd kill
When be began his his series long
From "Pizen Ridge" and sang its song.
He tcld its glory far and near
And sang to anyone who'd hear.
When he said he'd give the sign.
Grip and token all in line,
He didn't think that he would choke,
But thought for sure he'd ride the goat.
But his is bnt the fate OF such
Who tackle what they should not touch;
It takes man, SO to speak,
To translate" from the ancient Greek.
Where he has gone, no one can tell;
But hope he's gone straight down to
well.
The Golden Gates to dwell with God,
This man from Kansas, Old Nimrod.
Now this is all that we can say:
We found him here and left him lay.
We grant to him this epitaph
In honor of his better half.

The constant demand of the travelling
public to the far West for a comfortable
and at the same time an economical mode
of travelling, has led to the establishment
of what is known as Pullman Colonists
Sleepers.
These cars are built on the same gen.
eral plan as the regular frst-class Pull
man Sleeper, the only difference being is
that they are not upholstered.
They are furnished complete with good
comfortable hair mattresses, warm blan-
kets, snow white linen, curtains, plenty of
towels, combs. brushes, ETC., which secure
to the occupant of berth as much pri-
vacy as is to be had in first-class sleepers.
There are also separate toilet rooms for
ladies and gentlemen, and smoking is alb
solutely prohibited. For full information

Mr.. Thos. Wynn has purchased the

and will soon move it down to his home
stead.
All were overjoyed here to learn that
the state legislature had finally con-

another lease of life. The taking up and
distribution of the trees is next in order.
It has been a succession of ills and dis
asters but as spring opens and new life
comes maybe the blessings will follow.
Few there are in the neighborhood who
have not been visited. The bright side
Is close now.

somewhere in Trego to have our taxes re-

vantage over the settlers. We hope the
people will weigh the matter well before
they sign such a petition.
