The GRIM REApER.-Died at her
home in Denver, Colorado, May IL,
1893, Mrs. John S. Miller, formerly
of this place. The deceased had
been sick since February last, OF
brain trouble and nervous prostra-
ton. She was well and favorably
known to many of our people, who
will be panied to learn of her death.
Our sympathy goes out to Mr..
and Mrs jas. B. Menager, in the
death of their young son, who was
less than year old, which sad
event occurred on Thursday, May
Ie, 1893. The funeral services took
place from Christ p. E. Church,
Friday afternoon, and interment in
Lonc Oak Cemetery. The child
was sick but few days, and every
thing that was in the power of
mortal man to do, was done to save
the child; but God had decreed
otherwise and called the little suf-
terer away from this world. Who
can but help sympathize with the
bereaved parents in this their hour
of sore trouble and sorrow, and we
know that the sympathy of our
whole community is with Mr.. and
Mrs. Menager. However there is a
bright spot in the cloud; for the
bright, beautiful faith, hope and
trust of the parents, will safely
carry them through not only this,
but all the troubles of life.
HORSES. = The farmers of this
county have suddenly discovered
that there is no market for the class
of horses they have been accustom-
ed to raise. There are now just
two classes of horses for which our
farmers will always find a market.
They are the heavy draft horse,
and the stylish roadster-either for
driving or riding. A stylish, active,
well bred roadster will bring first
class price any time. No man need
ge hunting market when he has
such horse-the market will hunt
him. 1t is not necessary that his
horse should have the speed of the
track horse, but he must show II
good gait; he must have the points
which go to make n good horse;
and have the style which will catch
the eye of the connoissure. We
have several men in this county
who have been at great expense to
bring good horses into our county,
and if the farmers are wise they
will take advantage of the oppor
tunities offered to improve their
stock of horses.
