Last Thursday as our HERALD rep
resentative was driving into Boscobel a
sight met his eyes that he had never
heard of before. A large owl swooped
down to the ground, captured and took
heavenward a large snake, about three
feet in length. IL had the snakes head
tightly grasped lnNits talons, and no
doubt the snake though the matter
more serious than did the spectators.
Boscobel's fair last week, drew
large number from the Hub. The fair
i'll every respect was decided success.
The industrial and stock exhibits were
unprecedented, and the races were the
best Boscobel has had for years. Add
to this, the general display of farm
produce, domestic and fancy arts, and
special features, such as chariot and
hippodrome racing, and you will have
the attractions of Boscobels most ex-
cellent fair summed up.

Maple street was almost terrific, and

being run over. They were stopped
however, before anyone was hurt or
much damage had been done to the
wagon.

is over.
Through the kindness of the editor
of the Teller, we enjoyed the contents
of two boxes of raspberries, the ever
bearing variety, of course, from Mr.
j. H. c. Sneciode's raspberry farm at
Cassville. We have heard a great deal
about these berries and though com
pared with other varieties they may
seem out of season, we are now ready
to declare them deicately luscious and
fit to grace the table of king or tickle
the palate of an eplcure.
