At a meeting of the citizens held that
evening the gentlementstated that they
had every reason to believe that if the.

of way, depot grounds and levya
mill tax for ten years the Southern
Pacific would build a branch here. Tt
was the sense of the meeting that these
conditions could be complied with and
If the Southern Pacific have any inten-

ATTENTION

The rumors being circulated about
Four Osborn Rice Harvester and Binder
we denounce as being false in the ak
treme and circulated by malicious bar
ties only for their personal benefit. Our
machine does all that can be asked
for and expected by any reasonable
person.. It. did us good work during
the whole ofalast season, and will be-
ready in a few days for the present
season fully equipped with the recent
improvements which will greatly lessen,
the draught. The repairs on the same
TOT CHS season cost us nothing having
been done by d. Nj. Osborn Il Co,
Though their agents Messrs. Lacoste
Bros, and ]. III. Mostley. THE above
named gentlemen will be doWn.among,
us during the whole season and we can
not but recommend them to our friends
as being gentlemen and responsible in
every sense of the word.
Lastly, the D. M. Osborn Machine.
in our opinion, possesses advantages
superior to any other.

Death fro.n EEydrophobaas

An exchange says, a little oVer q year
ago four young lei in Casey county,
KY, were bitten by a rabid dog. Two
Of the men were named Hof1ey the
others were a Mr.. Cook and a Mr..
Dover. One of, the Hofey brothers
and Deyer tried the virtue of a mad
stone, and so far are all right. The
other Hofey and Cook had no faith in
the remedy, refusing to have anything
to do with the maidstone. The other
morning the two latter were seized with
mghtful convulsions,- and it took no
less ~than"eight men to hold each one
of the suffering men. They had every
symptom of hydrophobia, even. the Pc
cuiar bark of the dog. Death kindly
relieved their suferings. The sad af-
fair has created much excitement in
the neighboBhobd, and people came
fromtfar and near to see the unfortu-
nate men. The two who used the mad
stone are not at all alarmed. Their
wounds healed perfectly, leaving only
awhile mark. The wounds OF the two
who refused to use the stone never
properly, but always Looked

From Grand Prairie comes the tale
Of the capture Of a strange and'rn-'
known animal. Francois Dronet, last
Monday morning while looking after
stock saw ali animal about the size of
large dog following the cattle. On APP
preaching it started to run and he gave
chase and after driving it near his house
succeeded in lassoing it. No one who has,
seen the animal has been able to prop
erly class it among the known beasts.
1t is described as being about the size
of a large dog, withfur resembling very
much that of a wild cat, the shape of
the head is very much like that of a
hog, having short tusks, but the ears
ara small and nointad. the LEGS are
and cleaned limbed like those
Of a deer, while the hoofs are not like
those of the deer but split like a hogs.
It has very short tail like a rabbit
and runswith a series of leaps, andgets
over ground rapidly. Captivity does
not appear to render it vicious and it is
evident from a stout ring in its nose
that the animal has been partially
It is very fond of green corn.
