The rain and hail storm last Friday
afternoon did considerable damage to
barns and fruit in the township of
Speaker.
George Cough has workmen busily
engaged digging an excavation under
the kitchen part of his dwelling house
to be used as n cellar.

is visiting in Detroit, had her pocket
book, which contained Sl7, stolen last
Tuesday, while out shopping.
The past five days have been scorch-
ers. September has seen no such heat
wave for twenty years. 1t will last
some days longer, at least that is what
the forecasters assert.
For SALE OR RENT-Forty acres in

Rheumatism is caused by poisonous
acid in the blood and yields to Ayers
Pills. Many cases which seemed
chronic and hopeless, have been COM
pletely cured by this medicine. 1t will
cost but little to try what effect the
Pills may have in your case. We pre-
dict success.
JAS. Ball will have public auction
at his premises three miles north and
one-half mile east of Peck on Wednes-
day, Oct. eth. The sale will consist of
farm stock, implements, ten-hOrse
engine and boiler, l twenty-six inch
stone feed mill, and other machinery
not mentioned. w. w. Lord, auction
eer.
The barn and sheds of William Will
liams one mile north of here, was burn
ed to the ground with the contents on
Monday night last. The fire was first
discovered at about half past eleven
at which time the whole interior of the
main barn was one mass of flames. BY
prompt action the horses in the stable
were saved. In the barn was all of this
years crop consisting of 200 bushels of
wheat just threshed, barley, oats, peas,
and hay. Three buggies on the barn
floor were burned. Loss about 81 800;
insurance, $3.50. Mr.. Williams informs
us that he was at the barn to feed the
horses about eight o'clock that evening
and was afterwards in the barn-yard at
ten when there was no sign of fire.
1t is undoubtedly the devilish work of
an incendiary.
