ED. OF HERALD -
Thinking a few notes
from this section might not be out OF
place l send you the following;
Farmers are very busy just now plow-
ing, narrowing and getting ready tor
planting corn and sowing oats. Wheat is
looking well, especially the early sowing,
but the late wheat is not so promising
having been drilled very badly.
We baye every indication of good
fruit crop again this season unless some
thing turns up yet IN the shape OF a squat
and freezes it.
We are THRIVING people at this place
and are not far behind in anything. We
have two nice churches. good school
house, and, am sorry to cay, two still
houses. We have doctor, DR.. Gochen'
nour, aud two veterinary surgeons, OBJ
we will call Sine and the other lvers. W.
also have a brass band that is progress
ing finely under the leadership of Prof
| Charles Smoot.
On last Monday (court-day) some of on
bows got the jim jams, one fellow taking
a thorough course of law.
We regret to say that Mr.. Jno. Bake
lost a fiue mare and colt last week.
A certain young blood started off Satur
day with his two best girls but did no
get far before up came the fourth part
and relieved him of one, and that &C
counts for the milk IN the cocoanut.
wish to correct an error 10 the item
from Pleasant Grove. that appeared il
your last weeks issue. 1t stated that al
expert in trying to get his girl was see
by her sister who seized her by the arr
and tried to drsg her off. Now this is nc
correct. She only spoke few words t
her and took her by the arm to save he
from a fall. You KNOW.

TOMS BROOK ITEMS.

Mr. EDIToR:-I thought few lines
from this pushing little town would be
acceptable so conclude to write.
Well, Easter is over, and although
Easter Monday was an ugly day it was
quite Lively among the boys. Picking
eggs was all the 60 on Sunday, with a
few egg-nogs and a few jokes cracked,
and on Monday it was egg-plcking and
few nOggiOgs cracked.
Tuesday night the bind orator and
preacher from Kentucky came down and
gave an entertainment in the Brethren
church, and we don't remember ever see-
ing larger or better behaved audience.
His receipts were something over 5000
Tonight be is to lecture In the M. b.
| Church.
Our friend, Joel Borden, is making
things lively in general. He has just
added to his factory circular saw which
is al ingenious piece of machinery. II
saws out ST ayes for barrels. and as 1t saws
them corave it is decided and paying
improvement over the cutter, as be can
use up and make good barrels out OF little
scrubby pine trees that would otherw Use
be useless. ali his machinery is of the
best and most improved description and
we can see nothing but a successful en-
terprse in it. He is also running trst
class team hauling his pine blocks from
the mountains.
Mr.. John Shipe, whose leg it was
though; would have to be amputated, we
learn, is doing quite well, and hopes are
now entertained of his recovery.
Mr. Benjamin Cones. who was shot in
the arm several weeks ago, is out again
and at work, his wound having entirely
healed.
The family of Mr.. John Hausenfluck are
in a truly deplorable condition. The
mother is in bed with drcpsy, the
babe is very sick with a large ab
scess on the neck. the next child very
low with pneumonia, and three Others
with measles. They are truly deserving
of assistance from the people.
The western fever has struck this place
like cyclone. Almost every day can be
seen some young man taking leave of his
friends on his departure for the wild west.
Young man, don't be in too big hurry to
20. YOU little know the hardships, the
dangers, tolls and privations you may
have to undergo IN the lonely wild west
ern towns of Tifin and Dayton.
There is pretty strong talk at this time
of organizing a hook and ladder COM
pany in this place, something that is
very much needed. If fire should
break out now we are almost sure chat
there is not a ladder in town that would
reach to the top of good big store box,
at least none available.
Our friend, Harry Prick, left on Tuesday
for Winchester to procure situation there
If possible. Ifnot successful in this he
expects to 90 on to Pennsylvania. We
hope he may succeed.
Well, as rews it little scarce / will

MILL CITY ITEMS.

Miss Cora Glen, who IS attending school
at DAYTON, spent Saturday and Sunday at
home. She was accompanied by four OF
her schoolmates, Misses Etha and Bertha
Clevenger, Laura Robinson and Battle
Echard.
Mr.. A. P. Bowers paid his parents q
short visit last week. We understand
there is some Especial attraction" in New
Market If that is the case it would be
impossible for him to be absent very long.
We have been deprived lately of the
pleasant company of one of our young
gents. We hear that he is minus OF sew
eral front teeth and suppose that Is the
cause of his retiring from society. do
hurry Mr.. L, and get your new
teeth.
| As Sunday was such beautiful day
: quite a number of our gallant gentlemen
took advantage of it by taking their ''faiI
ones" ont driving, which, of course, thsy
enjoyed hugely.
MIR. and Mrs. J. B. Glenn gave party
at their residence Saturday night, Apri
10th, in honor Of their daughter, and hel
lady friends, which was most enjoyable
affair. Through the generous hospitality
of the host and hostess every one wal
made to feel that their presence was
source of much pleasure to them, and
Judging from the smiling countensnces o.
the guests, we know they all had de
liphtful time, and when the time came
for them to take their departure there
was a deep feeling of regret among them
all. Those present were Misses Laur'
Robinson. Bette Echard, Etba Cleyenger
Bertha Clevenger, Lizzie Brown, Lille
Maphis, Minnie Brown, Cora Glen, Matte
| Coffelt and Emma Coates, and Messrs.

That Bridge.

From many persons we learn that the
completion of the bridge across the river
on the Fort road will be the signal for the
beginning of the development of the
+ sources of the Powell's Fort Valley ia
an extent that must soon make itself
favorably felt over the entire county. Ths
want of this great Improvement, this
absolute public necessity. is keeping
thousands of dollars out of this county
that would otherwise be brought IN by
the increased marketing Of the resources
of that section. The river ford is not only
very incOnyenient but Is at times danger
GUS. In addition to the accidents aud
narrow escapes that have happened at this
point from time to time, Mrs. Eli Smith
and Mrs. Abram Lichliter, of Powelps
Fort, while crossing in buggy on Tues
day barely escaped drowning by the as
sistance of Mr.. VIM. Hotel and Sam.
Funk. Let not another summer pass
without completing this greatly needed
work, and not wait until precious lives
are lost and many thousands of dollars
more are wasted by leaving the resources
of that section undeveloped.

Putting Out Fires.

No greater mistake IN the management
of a household could possibly be maze
than that of drawing the fire in stoves at
the first approach of warm weather.
There is no economy in this hasty action,
as the effects of one days experience OF
having no fire IN sitting, sleeping or am
ing rooms often costs moro for medicine
TO overcome such haste than the coal
burned in a month. with the addition OF
worriment and suffering incurred in tax
ing care of sick man, woman, or cnlio,
II a sudden warm April day is experienced
don't let the fire 60 out; keep 1t up ana
open the doors, which will counteract the
effects of the first solar heat and prevent
the contraction of cold, rheumatism,
neuralgia and pneumonia.

In the Issue of the HERALD of last week
You say-"I never had to plead the
statute of limitation on any overdrafts in

ure trips" DC. This is an nnuendo and
it 10 commonly believed that you intend
ed it for me. simply ask fair dealing
and candor. Did or did you not intend
to charge that 1 pleaded the statute of
Limitation on overdraftsi Now. don't
make use of an innuendo to injure the
character of competitor in business, but
be a man and acknowledge 1t was intend
ed for me, or disclaim it. Don't reply
by making use of the cowardly and base
addage-"If the shoe fits, wear lt"-but
if You meant the above language for me,
say so. do not propose to indulge in a
newspaper controversy, my only purpose
being 10 disprove the grave charge if in
tended for me, and if it was not in
tended for me, give you an opportunity
to right wrong.

his friends will raise the amount nCcas-

state committee to whom was iutrusted
the Important duty Of procuring good,
representative samples of MontanH's
sources of wealth.
Had that call TO farmers for samples
OF grain, etc, been sent out thirty days
sooner, Cascade county might have had
and would have had collection Of
samples of grain aud grasses second to
none on the eastern slope Of the Rockies,
! AS it is, the writer fails TO see a sample
in the collection that has been prepared
according to the instructions of ~rcrc.
