Mr. and Mrs. Dubois and their little

rented the living rooms over j. Il.
Combe's grocery store, and Mr.. ID.

McNair's mill. They were well behav-
Ell people and gained the respect OF
those who knew them best. Last Fri
day they disappeared In very mys-
tcrious way. A boy who boarded with
them was at the house at 11:3o am
and Mrs. d. was there, and all seemed
as usual. At noon he returned and
there was no one there and no dinner.
A neighbort saw Mrs. d. and tho little
girl pass abous that time but they
told no one o! their plans, and they
have no acquaintances outside the
town. Towards night the husband
was seen In town and he told the boy
that II he did not feturn Saturday to
give the key to Mf& Combs. No pos
siblc reason Is known for such strange
conduct. They did not take even a
change OF clothing. and they are people
who ar, usually neat, aud nicely dress
ed. Nothing has yet been heard from
them.
Mr.. Wat Fordham returned to his
home here several weeks ago, quite
sick. He has had a severe attack Of
typhoid fever, but is considered out OF
