Our community was visited by one o.
the heaviest rains last Saturday night that
we have had for some time.
a great deal has already been said about
the school at this place, and will only add
| that it is still increasing. Mr.. Bowen has
| now on his roll about 78 pupils. Mr. Fos-
ter Speer is teaching about one mile below
here. We understand he also has good
school, and that several other pupils are
expected.
Considerable excitement was created
here the other morning on finding a mad
dog under the house of Mr.. Patterson.
Some OF our townsmen, armed with sticks
and stones, got him out, and after chasing
him about one mile succeeded in killing
him.
There was Valentine Party at Mr..
Dave McAlister's on the night of the 18th
inst, and every one seemed to enjoy it
ever so much. Mr.. Dave and his good
lady know how to make the young folks
enjoy themselves.
A selection of friends were gathered at
Capt. Huffman's on last Thursday night,
where several hours were spent very pleas
aptly
One of our young men says that when
the ladies of this place 60 visiting that on
ly his presence is required to remind them
Of the many duties they have to perform
at home.
Mr.. Editor, your Alice correspondent
informed us last week of two young ladies
that were courting the same young man.
Pshaw just tell him to come down here
Won't tell him anything, but we will show
him something.
Mr.. Will Webb passed through here last
Tuesday with Miss Carrie Groves as his
bride. He was looking very happy, but
some Of our boys are contemplating re-
yenge. Look out, Mr.. Will; three Of
them were up there not long ago, and now
they say they are going again soon. Guess
they will charge you three for one.
Several Of our people rushed out to Mr..
Martins Sunday to witness the marriage
of Mr.. Pink Latham and Miss Mary Lou
Young, but were too late. Mr.. Martin
does quick work on short notice, and the
contracting parties never complain. Re-
member the place, young ladies, R. ?.
Martin, Notary Public, Main Street.
Two young men from Carswell Institute
were down here not long ago and spent
the night with Mr.. Bowen. When they
left the next evening 1t was agreed that
Mr.. j. would stop at certain house and
spend awhile, and Mr.. s. would go farther

along. It was late and dark when ]. left
to join his companion, and had gone about
2 miles when he found he was so complete
ly lost that he at once called for help.
When they found him he was in large
field nearly mile from where he wished
to go. When ne arrived at the place agreed
upon he found that 8. had gone down to
bring him up, and on his way back he,
too, got lost. At last they got together
and quietly went their way. 1t was un-
fortunate for them both, and we wish for
them better luck when they come back.
We cannot close without mentioning
the visit of Miss Lula Bowen to our young
city sometime ago. Miss Bowen is one OF
Storeville's fairess and most lovable young
ladies, and during her short stay here she
made many friends, all OF whom will be
glad to seq her again. Come again, Miss
Lnla. and remember our latch string hangs
outside. PAP's Son.
