NUMBER %.
Carried az Last.

At the school meeting helss at the.
keytesville public school Building
last Friday afternoon the prspos;-
ton TO organize the district iato q
village school carried by a vote of
81 to 80.
Under the village school law six
directors are required instead of
three. which of course necessitated
the election of a new board, the re-
suit being as follows:
For three years, Judge o. F. Smith.
and Geo. N. Elliott; for two wears.
W. G. CASTOR and W. G. Agee: for
one year. II. B. Richardson ard
Capt. j. c. Wallace.
Owing to the facs that the length
OF the next term of school and the
amount of the levy had been deter
mined at the regular April school
meeting, no changes in theserespects
were made.
1t will be remembered that at the
April meeting an eight nponth's
school was voted and the lexy fixed
at 60 cents on the S1Oe, but that
amount OF levy will not run the
school more than seven months, it
is claimed. but the levy baving been
previously fixed it could not be
changed at last Fridays meeting.
We are heartily glad the village
school carried, and regard it as a
step in the right erection.

Geo. Hall, a young man aged
about 20 years, living near Everson
vile, was brought to town yesterday
by his father who was taking him to
the asylum, at st. Joseph. Young
Halls story is quite sad. Some time
ago his grandmother gave him 16O
acres of land. As he was guite am-
bilious and a hard worker he started
in 10 get the land in nice shape and
raise a good crop. About two weeks
ago, however, while replant ting corn,
hewas overcome by heat, and since
then at intervals has passed into
raying delirium. During these spells
it required several men to hold him
even when bound, and though he
was quiet while here, he was securely y
manacled. 1t is hoped that he will
recover.

A True Fish Story.

Our pioneer citizens are all famil-
lar with the manner in which the
wild deer and the antelope were
chased down and captured 10y hun.
ters and hounds in the early days OF
Linn county, but We opine that few
of them ever went on u fish chase
conducted i'm the same manner.
Our story is this: During the TO-
cedence of the high waters which
followed the recent heavy rains in
Locust Greek bottoms, large num-
bers of buffalo fish which had fioated
out into the prairie. near Myles' mill,
became entangled in the high grass,
and had much difficulty in following
the water which ebbed back to the
streams flowing current. A number
of resident farmers took in the situa
ton and by means OF hounds which
trailed the finny animals down, cap
tured over 200 pounds of fine buf-
falo. Several of the fish weighed
over - pounds, That's all. And
now il any of our exchanges feel in
clined to call that "whopper" we
can refer them to c. Z. Wood and a
dozen other reliable men who partici-
pated i'm the fish chase.-Linn neus
