gained considerable circulation before

antidotes, and the patient was in q

A young lady who is now at the home
of her uncle, John J. lIutchlson, In
Douglas township, took poison Sunday
evening. We have been unable to
learn the exact facts in the case, but
certain it is that she had taken dose
Of sulphuric acid, the effects of which
were counteracted by the prescriptions
of DR.. Miller. The presumption is that
she took the dose by mistake. She is
recovering from the effects but it will
be some time before she is fully re.

champion hook and ladder company
carried off the two largest plums at
the state tournament. They ran 800
yards and mounted to the top of

which they carried off the champion
ship belt. They also gobbled the sweep

they made in this race. The boys re.
